Actor Quote by Hugh Dillon

“I'm very, very lucky to be a working actor, but I've also been careful. I don't just take anything. 'Durham County' came to me. You have to look at the quality of work you do, and 'Durham' set the standard. I wait for things that keep me really interested.” quote by Hugh Dillon — Download Open image
