I had a great drama teacher, and he sort of made out drama school as this incredibly difficult thing to get into: 6,000 people apply every year, and some of the schools only have 12 places. It's a phenomenally difficult thing to get into. And that excited me - I wanted that challenge.
I got interested in computers and how they could be enslaved to the megalomaniac impulses of a teenager.
As an actor to watch an audience of people howl together in a single mind as a result of work you've done together with friends is a privilege.
