Hiding behind a tougher outer image as a teenager feels cooler and safer compared to admitting, perhaps, that you're the very opposite.

I don't know if it's a consequence of 'Black Mirror,' but I am slowly becoming more and more technophobic.

Everyone has a freak flag inside them. Whether they're brave enough to show it is another matter.

One big power of an actor is knowing when to say no to something. It can be very tempting to say yes to something, because you're flattered that somebody would like to work with you, and your ego sort of takes over, but it's important to ask whether there could be something you could add to a project by being part of it.

I love being scared, and I always have done. When I was younger, I was always reading books about the paranormal, UFOs, and crop circles. I liked the idea of people seeing faces in walls and twins that could communicate with each other telepathically. I really believed it, too!

One of the things I'll always remember from my time with 'Black Mirror' is the sense of all the tongue and cheek, and very, very dark sense of comedy there, too.

That's one thing that attracts me to roles the most - how much potential there is for me to learn from it.

I think, having grown up with the Internet, things like trolls and the world of having an online life as well as a physical one, it's something I've grown up with.

I didn't think I ever knew how one managed to be so lucky as to work in this industry. It was a dream I was a little bit embarrassed by.

My dream really is just to keep working in film and in theatre.
