  • Trivia
    First language is Welsh.
  • Quotes
    It was perfect because as a kid I loved historical dramas like The Flashing Blade and Zorro, I grew up running around the garden with swords, pretending I was on a horse so when I read this script I thought, 'God, I can do this for real'. Sometimes, historical movies have been seen as a bit naff but this is very slick and there are so many elements to it.
