He started the interview by saying that he feels that theatre is his home as he had worked there for many years. 

He started his career from his stage work. He had done Macbeth and spent years on a stage, so he has that feeling of home on stage.

The interviewer had known him for a long time, but he never knew she was a Scotsman

James McAvoy Doesn't Post On Social Media

He said that he is on Instagram but never tweets about a thing, and the reason behind that is he thinks that whatever he writes on tweets on his social media, no one cares about it. 

People won't be interested in anything he says, so he thinks that tweeting is unnecessary. 

But he said that people might show interest if he says something related to acting and his movies, but people don't want to hear their personal opinions or thoughts on anything. 

The interviewer then showed him a picture of him that he posted on his Instagram. In that photo, he was lying in a paw petrol sleeping bag.
