‘Horses are so sensitive. They can feel everything you’re feeling. They can sense fear. They can sense confidence. They can sense calm and peace. They can sense arrogance. The moment you have airs and graces, you’re off! And my Joey was like a Ferrari. He was so sensitive. The moment you put your foot on the accelerator, it was just like “Whoa!” And he was pawing the ground, Just like… He was ready to go. And I was like “Whoa boy, whoa… take it easy!” ’ ~ Tom Hiddleston

‘I was doing a small, British independent film called Archipelago, and it was set on an island off the coast of Cornwall, and all the actors playing the characters in this very suffocating family were staying in the actual house. It was a sort of extreme submersion into the life of the film. Whenever we were filming there, the crew had to switch the boiler off downstairs because the sound of the water heating up would interfere with the microphones. We would routinely forget to turn the boiler back on so we could have a hot shower in the morning. Basically, the first assistant director would always come up to say hello - just to knock on - in the morning, to say “We’re coming in - the crew are coming in”. It was a strange sort of Big Brother scenario sometimes, you’d feel like you didn’t actually have a house to live in, it you were just living on the set.’

‘You can’t plan your performance when you’re working with a horse! The horse is going to do its thing.’
