Christopher Parker

I enjoy playing other people. It's a great job and it's challenging. I couldn't do a desk job.

I don't know if I'm a heartthrob or if I want to be one! I heard that I get the most fan mail. It's very flattering, and lovely to be popular with the public.

I wanted to be a doctor when I was young. I also wanted to be a paramedic, but I always wanted to be an actor as well. I didn't have kids or something that I needed to provide for.

I get to meet fantastic people, and I get to go through so many emotions. For me, I have a craving for that. When I'm acting, I feel great. It's not to be famous.

I'm not confident with the ladies. I can't just ask someone out in a club. I'd like to say I'm a gentleman.

I did loads of student films and fringe theatre. I worked for free a lot.
