Occasionally people will look at me and do a double take and theyll look at me like theyre trying to think where they know me from.
I manage to live pretty normally.
I don't really have disappointments, because I build myself up for rejection.
I just want to be a better actor. You can always get better.
I don't want to share my worries - that's for me to know.
I don't think parents always know where their children are going or what they are doing, what they are up to.
As a kid, when you're in a film with somebody, you look up to them, you know?
After 'Skins' I became mildly famous, which was a bit of a disaster.
I'd just like to carry on acting.
When I like something, I love it, but then I'll let it go completely.
I try not to be too optimistic or pessimistic. If you're a pessimist then that's depressing all the time; if you're an optimist and things don't work out then that's depressing, too.
I think if you set yourself specific goals, that's quite a lot of pressure.
Supposedly I'm impossible to talk to. But it's honestly not me being difficult. Sometimes you just don't have a lot to say.
I was really in to shiny things when I was younger and I stole a shiny tag for my dog. I didn't get caught. I hope I don't go to jail for that.
