I felt there needed to be a show for teenagers that didn’t make them feel judged. ‘Skins’ never tried to preach. It allowed young people to make their own decisions about what to do and whether it was right or wrong. Young people really respond to that, and that’s what sets ‘Skins’ apart.

It’s weird being an author because it’s different than writing songs. You put so much more of yourself out there to be judged because it’s a memoir.

My parents felt judged by me.
When I first left drama school, I was too posh for the working-class parts and not posh enough for the upper-class roles. You know what England is like: the gradations of accent and how you’re judged by them are still there. I discovered that to get a break you have to lie about where you’re from.
Actors should be judged on how they look on screen, and not on the basis of the age of their characters.

The success of monetary policy should be judged by the economy’s performance against our statutory mandates of price stability and maximum employment.
What makes us a bit nervous is, in this instant age, to release something that might take more than one listen. Where everything is instantly judged on YouTube or something! It’s a bit like releasing a horse and cart on a racetrack.

People were saying on social media, ‘He’s going out too much’ – I got judged. That was demoralising.
