I'm a career actor. And I question this constant reliance on TV fame and celebrity. ”

Although I don't know Oslo at all, there is something about the feel or the smell of the place that feels like home, which is quite interesting. ”

The home of Rugby Union is in Twickenham - just outside London in the suburbs, where I live. I'm mad for it. The trouble with being an actor and being in the theater is that you always miss the games. ”

One day, a musician asked me what I did. When I told him I was to be a businessman, he laughed and said, 'You are not a businessman.' Sometimes all it takes is one person to put an important thought in your head, and he did. ”

I quite like being under the radar. ”

I studied at Guildhall and did the acting course, but because I could sing a bit, I kept being cast in musicals. ”

I love having music just to chill to and also to rev me up a bit. ”

I do chat to my mother in Norwegian, particularly when we want a secret conversation. It is useful that way. ”

Often you get wonderful singers who maybe aren't as strong as actors, or you get wonderful actors who can't sing very well. ”

There are times when I think, if I were a bit more famous, life could be easier in terms of work because producers want bums on seats, and they're going to get bums on seats if they get a name, if you have had that series on telly. ”
