- [On an Interview with The Liverpool Echo. Telling the story about how his mom told her sisters he got the Stranger Things role] When my mum called them and told them I've got this Stranger Things job, my auntie went mental and my mum went 'oh, so it's a big deal then, is it?' and she was like 'are you messing?
- I spent my childhood going up to West Derby and I still see them whenever I can. I've got some lovely history up in Liverpool and it's an amazing city.
- [about his secret skill] Secret skill... I feel I'm a pretty decent chef. Nothing crazy, but I could surprise someone with a good meal.
- [about his guitar solo in Stranger Things] Well, I've been playing guitars since I was a kid, fortunately, but by no means have I kept it up the whole time. But it meant that I had the foundations there, but yeah, I went away and learned it. I'm an actor. I'm not a heavy metal guitarist. So I let this brilliant guitarist, Aiden (Fisher), take care of the more complex fingering. And then yes, I did the rest of it.
- [about family] I was an only child of separated parents, which breeds a pathological need for attention.
- [about what is his desire] I guess a nice role, someone nice and a nice house would be great.
- [on the question that of all the roles he had played, is there a performance he is proudest of?] I think I'm the proudest of Eddie, really. I don't know if proud is the right word. I enjoyed my time on Mosquitoes a lot. I was very proud to be a part of that. I'm very proud to be a part of Stranger Things. I'm relieved that Eddie hasn't been laughed out of town. I'm English, so it's very hard to be proud of yourself. But I guess I'm proud of Eddie.
- [about getting interested to acting] I got a drama scholarship to Emanuel school at Clapham Junction and it was the only thing I had any natural aptitude for.
