I'm an actor's director.

Long before I ever started acting, believe it or not, I always knew I wanted to be a director.

I've been working as an actor since I was 9 years old.

I'm really a director's actor. I rely heavily on a director.

I didn't plan to be a director until I was 35. For years I wanted to do anything but!

I'm an actor; I'm not a director.

I never wanted to be a director. I came into this industry by the little door, so I never learned anything; I never went to school. Actors will tell you I'm very precise. I just have the intuition of doing things.

I directed before I was even in television; I directed in the theatre for seven years, so that was my trade anyway. But in the UK, I've given up any hope of being considered a director.

I learned so much about being an actor by being a director. More than I ever thought I would.
