Well, I’m not married so I’d have to say nil out of 10 so far, although ironically, a lot of my characters recently have been a good husband material – Mr. Knightly in Emma, Sir Robert Chiltern in An Ideal Husband. But my latest character, Prince Amerigo isn’t – he marries for money and has an affair, but he tries to do the right thing by learning to love his wife.

Unpacking boxes. I’ve just moved from Finsbury to Marylebone, so I’ve been rediscovering all my books and old plays as I fill up my shelves. I’m very fond of the area. It has an ironmonger’s that’s been there since 1874 and a wet fish shop, quaint little places that give Marylebone a real village atmosphere.

Never. I’ve enjoyed working in Hollywood, but I always feel a long way from home when I’m there. I don’t mean that in a homesick sense, I just wouldn’t like to live somewhere where the industry is so central to people’s lives. The movies are all about fiction – I like to have some ordinary reality around me.

No. But when I was a drama student in Bristol I used to sing upstairs at a Renato’s. It’s a late-night bar near the docks where all the actors hang out. I used to be foolish enough to think I could carry a tune. The management didn't mind – they’d always ask me for a song when they wanted to clear everyone out.

I’ve got a little place in Norfolk so I tend to head up there. I like ordinary things like going to the cinema, cooking and entertaining. I go to a gym in Belsize Park to keep fit and I enjoy jogging in Regent’s Park when I have free time.

I don’t know where these rumours come from, but I find them terribly amusing. I’m very flattered by the fact that people usually equate me with that role, but it’s a fantastical idea that I can never imagine happening.

When I hear that, I look into the mirror and laugh hysterically. It makes me feel like a complete impostor.
