shows
British shows, especially on a first commission, don't get the cash that the U.S. shows get.
seductive identity way
I find confidence seductive. Confidence, to me, is being happy in your own identity and not being influenced by others. I find that quite seductive because I'm a 50-50 person: in some ways I'm confident, and in some ways I'm quiet, reclusive. [I] like someone who can shake me out of that and approach me.
sharks water ifs
I've always been freaked out in deep open water if there's a potential of sharks around.
night thinking people
People say that New Yorkers aren't friendly, but I think they're more friendly than Londoners. Here there is a front-footed nature of Americans. You can go out on a night out and meet 10 random people and stay in touch with them, whereas that's not going to happen in the same way in London.
manhattan brooklyn energy
I know there's Brooklyn and all the boroughs, but Manhattan specifically is so condensed that the energy is very vibrant. Everywhere you look there is something happening.
new-york stars rocks
What is interesting, as well, is how much power homicide detectives have and how much respect. They are kind of rock stars, especially in New York. There are not that many of them.
new-york real poetic-license
New York cops are very specific in terms of the way they talk and the way they handle themselves. All these cliches that, as an Englishman, I thought were from a bygone era or were a bit of poetic license with cop shows - the more you hang out with them, the more you realize how real that jargon is.
girlfriend believe weekend
I don't think I believe in ghosts, per se. But, my nearest experience was when I went on a weekend away and was in a bar in England, years ago, with an ex-girlfriend. I heard this scratching. I was about to go to bed and I was thinking, 'It's an old ghost.' I could hear this noise, but I couldn't work out where it was coming from.
new-york differences london
To me, the difference between New York and London is that things are boring and staid in London.
brother two five
I've got two brothers and two sisters, so there's five of us and we're all very close, which is cool.
new-york thinking cities
I think you can tell when a New York show isn't shot in the city. It's so iconic and has such a specific energy.
creating messages genre
What I like about the 'Underworld' thing is that it's a mix of cool genres, as well as creating its own message.
business crazy days few hit knows life suddenly truth wants
I know that everyone wants to know about 'Downton Abbey,' but the truth is that it was only a few days out of my life. Still, you play a distinctive part on a hit series, and everyone suddenly knows who you are. Isn't it crazy how this business works?
dared impress met relationship zealand
I was in New Zealand and met this girl. Her sister dared me to bungee jump, so I did! It was a spur-of-the-moment decision - I wanted to impress the girl, and it worked! We were in a relationship after that.
