When it comes to rugby, I'm a Welshman through and through. I'm a huge fan; I've played rugby since I was seven. Unfortunately, I had to quit when I went to drama school because it doesn't really go hand in had with being an actor.

There are four of us, and we were all born in different cities because my dad worked all around the place. We settled in Birmingham, so I spent most of my time growing up there. We were all given very Welsh names - Geraint, Owen, Rhiannon and Gwilym. My mum's called Cainwen, and my dad is somewhat disappointingly called Tom.

Obviously Gwilym is a very Welsh name! My father is from Maesteg, and my mother's from Abergavenny.
