Long scenes of emotion are quite difficult - you've got to build up to them and make sure you're in the right emotional space.

I auditioned for a musical, and I can't sing. It was a kid's film musical, not a stage show, so I thought I could get away with it.

I was so tiny when my parents split up that I can't remember them ever being together. That was never an issue, as I guess I never went through the trauma of them splitting up.

I wanted to be a male ballet dancer.

Money grants you freedom, I guess.

As a young child my attention span was, as I remember it, rather short.
