CLAIM TO FAME
The 32-year-old stars in Evening, this fall’s The Jane Austen Book Club and was nice enough to get on the phone for some sexy talk with our writer.

Q: So, what are you wearing?

A: I am dressed very slobbishly in jeans and sneakers.

Q: Oh no, that’s not hot at all.

A: Oh, sorry. That’s right. I’m wearing a velvet dressing gown.

Q: That’s very British, Hugh. Is there something you don’t find sexy on a woman?

A: I suppose short skirts and high heels just to go shopping.

Q: What do you think of women’s style in Jane Austen’s day? Do you think corsets are hot?

A: Maybe, in the right moment. Not if you’re in a hurry!

Q: That reminds me, why do Brits call kissing “snogging”?

A: God, I don’t know. I’ve come to prefer the American phrase “making out.” It sounds more fun.

Q: In Evening, you’re a sad guy who loves a girl who doesn’t love him back. What was your first unrequited crush?

A: There have been so many.

Q: I doubt that.

A: No, trust me. I remember there was a girl in grammar school. This is true: I drew in chalk a picture of…I can’t believe I’m saying this…my wedding to her.

Q: Where is she now?

A: I don’t know, but not by my side.

Q: So how did you feel about our phone sex? I’m satisfied.

A: [Laughs.] Yeah, it worked for me.
