I play really bad punk rock guitar. Age-old friends it's just great hanging out with your mates, causing havoc.

I think Jesus was a bit more of a fun guy. I'd like to play Him like maybe some days He doesn't fancy it, being God. Some days He's miracled-out and just wants to go have a smoke.

If I'd been a rock star, I'd probably now be dead.

I'm interested in playing Rasputin at some point. I find him such a fascinating character and a fascinating period in Russian history. Either Rasputin or Jesus. I think I have more of a chance to play Rasputin.

In Wales, singing and storytelling are party skills, not professions.

My work is my way of expressing myself without being arrested.

Whenever you're doing film for television and you look at the budget that you have, which is much more constricted than a movie budget, you think, God, are they going to be able to do what they say they are?

I work hard and I party hard. When I go to work, I know what I am doing and I do it to the best of my abilities. When I party, I take exactly the same rule book with me.

We're both Welshmen and growing up, when Howard Marks was finally caught, it was all over the news. He did an interview in the Welsh language, which I also speak, and I was sort of just amazed that this man from a small country was for many years supplying much of the world with most of the marijuana it was smoking. It was incredible.

Film and stage are very different I don't necessarily prefer one over the other. Every few years, I get a big itch to go back to the theater. To learn humility, to learn bravery and to remind yourself that the pistons that drive your craft are working on full power. And to remind yourself how badly paid actors can be.

Villains are fun. I think the important thing in playing them is that they don't see themselves as villains. It lets you be a little more expansive.
