Beim Abschlussball für mein katholisches Internat fühlte ich mich männlich, also rasierte ich mich, obwohl ich es nicht brauchte. Da ich unerfahren war, gelang es mir, eine halbe Stunde, bevor ich mein Date fand, eine Viertel-Zoll-Wunde in mein Unterkinn zu schneiden.

Being sent away to boarding school at seven is as great an inspiration as any songwriter could have - to be taken away from one's family and locked away for 10 years. It does create an incredible intensity of emotion.

When I was 12, I went to boarding school, where I discovered the computer, which meant I no longer had to write something down and get someone to play it, I could just type it into the computer and hear it back.

I love 'Call the Midwife'; it's an absolute gem of a programme. Filming the Christmas special and then the second series felt like going back to a boarding school that you really love and is full of friends.

High school is very intense for everyone. But at a boarding school, because you're there 24 hours a day, everything gets magnified.
