“I've spent so much time the last seven, eight years in Los Angeles, away from my family, away from my friends, away from the city that is my favourite place to be and I just want to come here and have a proper life.”

“I'm trying to do the kind of projects that I want to see in the theatre.”

“When you're doing a series like this, you're constantly looking for new ways to excite your audience.”

“Two shows at once is crazy, but I love it.”

“At Christmas, 'It's a Wonderful Life' makes me cry in exactly the same places every time, even though I know it's coming.”

“I wanted more in depth ideas about the character and it never came.”

“You can be in an acting class all you want, but you don't fully learn until you get off that stage and in front of a camera.”

“So, I completely and utterly support David and Gillian's decision to go to Los Angeles, but I think that Vancouver is the perfect location for the show.”

“Supporting characters add depth to a story, and great actors leave their imprint with the audience.”

“When I'm on my deathbed, I'll hopefully be able to count more friends than parts that I had.”

“I just wanted to act. I didn't want to do anything else.”

“It's certainly more interesting for me as an actor, but I think it's also more interesting for the audience to see three-dimensional characters, rather than just a bad guy or a good guy.”

“We both have a great loyalty to it, and I think that it's important to give it our best shot.”

“I'm living in L.A. but my heart's in Vancouver.”

“My heritage is English, so I'm proud to be back here.”

“It changed my life in a lot of ways - before I got that role I was just going from job to job, not really having enough money to be able to do what I wanted to do.”

“Certainly, when I walk into an audition, a lot of people already know who I am.”

“My sister is a nurse and saves people's lives.”

“Everything has an end.”

“Comedy and drama are both challenging to me.”
