I think I'm highly normal. I'm attending school after acting, I'm going out with friends, going to the cinema - I'm just doing everything a normal teenager does. People think I can't leave the house without being in a crowd of fans - but that's not true. I'm able to do more things than people might think.
In terms of drama school, what that will give you that you won't necessarily learn on a film set is the technical ability - ie, projecting your voice and stage craft.
I pretty much left full-time, formal education when I was 11, so that was when I was taken out of the school system... The longest stretch I would go back for was a term and a half when I was about 14.
I was very much a product of the public-school system. There was only one other kid in my class who had parents not involved in the stock market or law.
I've never been one of the cool people at school, but then again, I don't get the people who are cool. It's not that I don't like them, it's just that they don't interest me.
I was having a hard time at school, in terms of being crap at everything, with no discernible talent,
I wasn't the most popular kid in school.
When I get into trouble at school I'd like to take an invisibility cloak, drape it over me and sneak out the door. Or I'd like to have a 3 headed-dog because then no one would argue with me.
I thought it was really weird seeing my face up on the screen.
We could get away with more because we were a bit younger.
We are not absolutely confirmed as doing them all. We are confirmed to do the fifth but after that who knows.
I don't think I'd have the stamina, skill or ability to write a novel, but I'd love to write short stories and poetry, because those are my two passions.
If you are going to do justice to the book, it has to be dark,
We're now old enough to appreciate scenes being analyzed and broken down,
