I'm good at being on my own. As a kid, I was always in my room alone, so I have a high threshold for it. If I'm bored, I'll read. Hanging around doesn't go well with me. John Simm boregoodhang Change image and share on social
I love Manchester. I always have, ever since I was a kid, and I go back as much as I can. Manchester's my spiritual home. I've been in London for 22 years now but Manchester's the only other place, I think, in the country that I could live. John Simm backcountryhave share on social

When I got to 40, I was happy. Now I can wear what I like, listen to what I like, don't have to try and be cool. I'm someone's dad and it doesn't matter any more. That's an enormous freedom. John Simm cooldadenormous Change image and share on social
I think I can be closed in. I can close this outer shell, cut myself off and be quite cold. I can cut other people off if I need to. I don't think I'm angry, though... Maybe my wife would disagree. John Simm angryclosecold Change image and share on social
I'm not a people person. I'm not sociable. I have been and I can be, but not as a general rule. John Simm generalpeopleperson Change image and share on social

You never undertake a project because you think other people will like it - because that way lies madness - but rather because you believe in it. John Simm liemadnesspeople Change image and share on social
