Paul and I were both struggling actors. One night he would serve me in a restaurant, and the next night I would serve him. It was what out of work actors did.
One of my beliefs is that there are certain institutions within a community which stand for the spirit and heart of that community, there`s the church, the local football team, the local pub and the theatre.
Once in a while I`ll get moved to do some exercise. It`s something I long for but the biggest problem is bending down and putting my tennis shoes on. Once I go out I`m OK.
My father was my main influence. He was a preacher, but he was also a history and political science teacher, and since he was my hero, I wanted to follow in his footsteps and become a teacher.
