Rob James-Collier

Beverly Hills is too intimidating. Everyone's got lovely teeth, so you don't want to smile. Everyone's ripped, so you start working out at 4 in the morning and eating egg white omelets.

Before 'Coronation Street,' I was a jobbing actor, and after it, I'm a jobbing actor again.

The reason I'm an actor and am trying to make my way in drama is to move people, to affect people, to gain a response - so these people who come up to you in the street are your audience.

I was a bit challenged when I was younger to stay on the right path.

If every time you engage in a sex act, you go into a confession box, you will never accept your own sexuality.

I think for any actor, for the roles they deeply, truly want? They always have to audition for them.
