scots scottish successful tv until work
I did work a lot in Scots theatre, but I was never really successful in Scottish film or TV until I went down to London - and I had to go to the U.S. to get my big break.
instill movies people scottish
I'd imagine if there were more Scottish people making Scottish movies about Scotland, it would not only be educational, but it would instill a sense of pride.
certainly character compared difference experience hip invest major quick shooting speed time
In film, I think that you do have a little more time to invest in the character compared to television, where you are shooting from the hip and making quick choices. It is the speed of things that is the major difference - certainly in my experience.
close home lived moved scotland time
I was born in Peru, and we moved to Scotland when I was 15, but I've not lived here for a long time. But I would always say that I am Scottish, and Scotland is as close to a home as I have.
figures
The viewing figures for 'Lost' were huge. I don't think the viewing figures for 'The 100' are up there with 'Lost'; hopefully, they will be.
contend filming sound
When I was filming 'Lost,' we'd be in the jungle. The only thing we had to contend with was the sound of the ocean. That was it, really.
faith worked writers
With television, I worked on 'Lost,' where you'd just put your faith in the writers and go with what they're writing.
board numbers
I would like to have a 'Lost' clapper board with the numbers and the clock at the top.
background bit extensive
My theatre background is probably more extensive then my film, and I have done a fair bit of television.
characters comedy happy romantic stanley
'Not Another Happy Ending' is a romantic comedy starring Karen Gillan and Stanley Weber. It is about these two characters and their relationships.
fit good happy huge
'Scandal' is a huge hit. I'm happy for them, but it was never a really good fit for me.
beautiful hawaii beautiful-places
Hawaii is a beautiful place to bring up a family.
soccer running play
I swim. I do a little bit of surfing. I would say I'm a beginner at surfing. I run. I cycle. I play a little bit of soccer.
mean wedding-ring rings
I mean, I do wear a wedding ring and take it off when I shoot.
