The actor explained how The History Of Sound was also about grief, companionship and music as well as love.

Whereas his role is God’s Own Country told the story of ‘someone who was unable to love and be loved.’

He added: ‘A character’s Sєxuality, a character’s background, where they’ve grown up, their dynamic with their family—these are all aspects to any character, and so I take those as seriously as I would any other aspect.

‘But to be totally truthful, I’m not 100% sure how I do feel about it. I think I have mixed feelings.
