Once you become famous, you can't become unfamous. You can become a failure.
The home of Rugby Union is in Twickenham - just outside London in the suburbs, where I live. I'm mad for it. The trouble with being an actor and being in the theater is that you always miss the games.
Although I don't know Oslo at all, there is something about the feel or the smell of the place that feels like home, which is quite interesting.
There are times when I think, if I were a bit more famous, life could be easier in terms of work because producers want bums on seats, and they're going to get bums on seats if they get a name, if you have had that series on telly.
I love having music just to chill to and also to rev me up a bit.
'The Sound of Music' is set in 1938 in Austria at the time of the Anschluss.
I'm a career actor. And I question this constant reliance on TV fame and celebrity.
I studied at Guildhall and did the acting course, but because I could sing a bit, I kept being cast in musicals.
I used to box a bit, and once fought as an amateur welterweight.
I quite like being under the radar.
One day, a musician asked me what I did. When I told him I was to be a businessman, he laughed and said, 'You are not a businessman.' Sometimes all it takes is one person to put an important thought in your head, and he did.
I was born in Oslo, Norway, but now live in the suburbs of Southwest London, right near the River Thames. It's a lovely part of the world.
I'm a huge Rugby Union fan, which is a bit like American football - but tougher.
Often you get wonderful singers who maybe aren't as strong as actors, or you get wonderful actors who can't sing very well.
I do chat to my mother in Norwegian, particularly when we want a secret conversation. It is useful that way.
