What Other People Think Of Me Is

When You Play A Character That Is So Emotionally Closed There Are Times When You Ask Yourself If You Are Doing Enough And If It's Reading. That Is Where You Have A Director, Who Is The Barometer Of What You Are Doing.

Sometimes Directors Feel Like They Have To Justify That Hat That They Are Wearing They've Got On As A Director, And They Come In And They Tweak And Interfere.

But You See, I Have Played More Good Guys Than I Have Played Villains.

I Grew Up In Deptford In South London, And At That Time I Used To Wear Toppers, Loon Pants And Tonic Suits From Shops Like Take 6 And Topman. I Was A Bit Of A Soul Boy, But I Had A Very Eclectic Taste In Music - I Was Into James Brown And Bowie; And I Was The Only Kid In The Neighbourhood Who Would Also Be Listening To Chopin.

I Was Brought Up By My Mother And My Two Sisters, Although They're Older Than Me And Fled The Nest Very Young, So I Was Technically Raised As An Only Child, But I Was Very Much Loved.
