Hurricane season brings a humbling reminder that, despite our technologies, most of nature remains unpredictable.
I can't remember what Michael Praed looks like. I'm too young!
All my friends were choosing university courses, but I had no interest in anything other than acting, so I applied to go to RADA.
Jewellery's not a big thing for me. The only thing I wear is a gold cross on a chain that I got for my 21st birthday. You have to take it off every day for filming, but that's the only time I'm not wearing it. You won't find me in rings, bracelets or earrings.

To punish a man because he has committed a crime, or because he is believed, though unjustly, to have committed a crime, is not persecution. To punish a man, because we infer from the nature of some doctrine which he holds, or from the conduct of other persons who hold the same doctrines with him, that he will commit a crime, is persecution, and is, in every case, foolish and wicked.
Thought is just an apprehension of touch.
