Sorry, that was a very long-winded answer.
Well, it's good. It's getting to know Thomas Brodie-Sangster.
Good.
What film would you say has had the biggest impact on your life?
To watch or to be in?
Both.
Probably Star Wars, to watch. The original ones.
Yes, the originals are so much-, I'm wearing Stormtrooper socks right now.
Very good, very good.
So what about a film that you've been in?
Which one do you think had the biggest impact?
They all have an impact in their own way.
Every character that you take on and every project you're in
and everyone you work with all has a big impact on you.
If you're doing it right, you should be giving an awful lot to the character
and you end up finding a bit about yourself by doing that,
because it all has to stem from within you.
If you could live the life of any fictional character for a day, who would it be?
I just keep going back to Star Wars. Han Solo.
Nice, yes. I'd love to pilot the Millennium Falcon.
Exactly, yeah.
I'd love to punch it.
But at the same time, you want to live the life of one of these exciting people,
but then you think, 'What would happen if I got in a dangerous situation?'
Oh no, it'd actually be terrible to live the life of Han Solo, yeah.
He's always in trouble and he always manages to get himself out of it,
but I don’t know whether I would.
Have you ever been a superfan of anything?
I was, Star Wars, yeah, as a kid.
How can you not be a superfan of Star Wars?
Yeah, it's kinda hard.
And also Thunderbirds as well. I was a big, big superfan of that.
That's a good thing then, because you're in Thunderbirds now.
I know, my childhood dream.
Is there anyone that you'd like to live the life of in Thunderbirds?
It's got to be Brains, I think.
You'd get to sit in an amazing laboratory, have endless amounts of funding, it seems,
and just sit there and build amazing spaceships.
That's a plot hole. Where does all the money come from?
Who knows? Who knows this?
I think it comes from Brains, actually. I think he sells a lot of his inventions.
I think that's where it's meant to come from, anyway.
Besides acting, did you have any other professional ambitions when you were younger?
I wanted to be a pilot, but I don’t know in what capacity.
I just wanted to fly.
It came from Thunderbirds really, I wanted to fly rockets.
It's the adventurous thing. I ride motorbikes as well, and I love racing.
It'd be great if I was a racer or something, that would be fun.
So you said that you ride motorbikes.
Do you have any other hobbies when you're not acting?
- I play bass. - Nice.
I ride and fix, restore my motorbikes.
I love music, I love to listen to music, I love to play music
and just sit and play bass for hours.
Paint, draw, design things and build things.
Cool.
So obviously you're a celebrity, and being a celebrity comes with rumours.
What's the funniest rumour you've ever heard about yourself?
Bisexual at the age of twelve, I thought that was quite funny.
I didn't even know what I was at that age, so I don’t know how anyone else did.
Also, it was really intrusive for a twelve-year-old to hear, just bizarre.
It didn't affect me, I didn't mind it. I found it quite funny.
I don’t know, I'm not on Twitter. I technically am, but I'm not.
I'm only there because I have to be.
I don't really like Facebook, I find it annoying.
I'm not very good on the phone, with friends or with fellow professionals.
Emails I'm pretty terrible at.
I don't really care too much for rumours and stuff because I don't really hear them,
then when I do, I just think it's quite funny and I forget about them.
So, dressed up from a premiere or jogging bottoms in the park?
What are you most comfortable wearing?
I like dressing up, I think it's cool. I like how it makes you feel.
It's like when a girl puts on a pair of high heels.
I would assume it just makes you walk different, makes you feel different.
- I don't personally like high heels. - That's great, you don't have to.
But I do like a good bowtie.
There you go, it's the same thing.
It's like when a guy puts on a jacket or a suit, and you just feel a bit-,
Walk a bit taller?
You do. It changes how you react, so I like to dress up.
I enjoy putting on a suit and looking snazzy.
You don't often get to do that.
