Zitat des Tages von Toby Stephens:
I blub all the time, in the most weird situations - not in the ones that should make me cry. Music makes me very emotional.
I love travelling with my laptop because I get a bit nervous if I can't access my e-mails.
My parents' parents were regular working-class people. I ended up speaking in a certain way, and one gets sidelined into doing certain parts. I think that is really quite narrow-minded.
That's the privilege of being a grandparent - they can indulge the children while parents have to be the bad guy. Grandparents can also be subversive and naughty with them.
I think all parts come with baggage unless it is a brand new play. If one was daunted by that, you would never do anything.
Screen is satisfying because it's so technical and mysterious. It's like playing roulette: you get a script, you think it's either great or naff, but you have no idea how it will really turn out. On stage, you are your own editor - and you get brief moments of grace, where suddenly you feel free.
I would love to be in a Jimmy McGovern drama on TV, but there is no way he would ever ask me unless it would be to play a lawyer or something.
