I've really had good luck working with younger actors. Every younger actor that I have worked with has always been really on top of their game and fascinating to watch.

Basically I am just another actor who loves his work and this thing about age only exists in the media.

Since first starting my career, I've grown accustomed to working with actors older than me. I'm always the youngest.

I'm finding a lot of actors my age now who are a bit more like me, and not as posh or brought up in a certain way. There's now people of all sorts of kinds of backgrounds.

There are many actors I really like and whose work I admire.

The kind of actors I admire move through different characters and genres.

I love working with older actors because number one, I can learn so much from them because they have so much experience. And it's fun to hear their stories from their era, some of the jokes.

I didn't know any actors growing up. My dad was a builder, and we didn't know any arty types.

I played old men back in drama school. It's just now that I'm drawing level with the age of the characters I play, but I'm fine with that, and I've certainly never envied people who became hugely famous when they were young.

I guess I work well with others I handle younger actors well.
