I'll never forget travelling to New Zealand for three months to make the 'Underworld' films - that was pretty special.

I have lots of memories of staying at campsites in the West Country and France, of the Carpenters playing on the eight-track, and of my dad cursing under the broken-down VW camper van. I loved camping, but I wouldn't much fancy it now - I'm too old to rough it.
In 2005, while filming an independent movie with Elisabeth Shue in New York, I was put up in the most gob-smackingly beautiful, spacious, split-level loft apartment in SoHo for six weeks. It was so big that you could skate-board around the place, and since the job took place in the summer, my family got to join me there, too.
I love everything from soul to electronica and classic rock to weird rock. I'm a real cratedigger, so wherever I go, I search out a vinyl shop to find some unburied treasure - records by under-the-radar artistes.
My family are the most important thing to me.
I'd like to do a contemporary London thing, working with like-minded people, possibly through improvisation.
I just wasn't meant to do Shakespeare. I'm not vocally equipped; I've got this flat, nasal, East Anglian voice. I got to understand the fantastic words Shakespeare wrote but never got to fly with them.
It's often disappointing when you're sent scripts, and you see why you were sent it; they want you to repeat the same thing you've done before.
I wait and see what scripts come my way and then try and make a decision within the choices that I'm offered. I see what turns up, and if it's something I'd really rather not do, or I think it's too similar to something I've just done, I'll wait and hope for something else.
