That was addressed with absolute diligence by my make-up artist of many years, Veronica Brebner, who experimented on me and with people of my colouring in order to knock out the freckles and red tones. Truly, making someone look like an albino is an extraordinary job if you do it properly. It took two and a half hours. First of all there was a green make-up that went on, and then a paler version because they're not white, they're pale-skinned - you look like you're in Memoirs Of A Geisha! At that point, you have to draw features back on, so she would draw in veins and, of course, all the scars and the wig. Then she would airbrush. That was an incredibly long process for what you could see of me - my head and shoulders.
Silas is also, shall we say, prone to a spot of self-flagellation. How did you approach that element of his character?
I thought about it a great deal and I've seen people getting whipped and seen people whipping themselves on screen. But I thought what would be shocking about that? I could make it look like a frenzy but then I thought if you keep seeing someone whipping themselves, you start to get used to it. So I thought that the scene actually existed in between each stroke. It's the recovery from the pain and then the build up to having the willpower to hit yourself again in the same place, as if somebody else was doing it. That was the only thing that was intriguing about seeing that on screen: the result.
