I had extra thick light sabers because mine kept getting bent. I'd be halfway through a fight and it would be like 'Oops, sorry! Mine's bent again!'

I'm just looking for that moment to drop my Jedi knickers and pull out my real light saber.

From there I did a one year theatre acting course in Fife, and then three years of drama school in London.

Mainly I was able to perform with music - I played the French horn, I would sing, and I was a drummer in the pipe band. So I think it was a way to show off.

So, no, I'm not trying to crack into Hollywood, although I'll make films there if they're good scripts.

I'm just into making quality stuff if I can, with interesting people and good scripts. But it's very important that it's about something and that it says something. Otherwise, I don't know what the point is, really.
