bedroom
My bedroom's like an armoury.
horse powerful animal
If a horse doesn't want to do something, you're not going to make him do it. They're incredibly powerful animals.
dark colour
I've always been into dark colours.
fans doe
I'm the biggest Chekov fan - there's something that he does that not many other writers do.
pain animal want
I wouldn't want to see any animal in pain, no matter what.
names actors
All actors have to change their name.
actors world matter
You can be the best actor in the world, but if you don't have that one lucky moment, it kind of doesn't matter. There are a lot of amazing actors who will never get the chance to prove themselves because they won't have that one lucky moment.
small-villages village
I like being outdoors a lot, and I come from a small village that's fairly remote.
cities cherish living-in-the-city
For work, I have to be living in cities, I really cherish the time when I get to be out in the countryside.
memories thinking skills
Nearly every taping or audition has to be in an American accent, so you don't have a choice; you just have to get good at it. I'm sure you can appreciate accents - it's like learning any skill, you have to work at it and work at it and it takes an awful lot of time, until it's muscle memory and you don't have to think about it anymore.
stars thinking actors
On the whole, British actors star in theater, and I think there's something quite grounding about that.
laughing never-quit theater
For me, one of the biggest thrills is going to a theater and going, "Oh, I got a laugh!" Because you never quite get to hear it [otherwise].
couple successful people
What I've realized is that all of these people are so successful because they love what they do and they work exceptionally hard. No one gets successful in this business by fluke really. There are probably a couple of exceptions but most people just work so hard. They are working every day and they are doing their prep.
nice book reading
I'm an expert at killing time on planes now. I do a lot of reading. My secret sort of nerdy side is I'm quite into history so I read a lot of history books. Now I write for a few things and I've had a few history things published, which is cool. I indulge my nerdy side and it's kind of as far away as you can get from the acting world so that's nice as well.
