ADD QUOTES
- Mark: My uncle's an actor and I think initially when I was young I wanted to be like him. I used to come home from school and he used to be there with his tales. Then I just started doing lots of plays, because when I was little I was either in plays or in a band. Eventually I did so many plays it became what I wanted to do.
