- It took eight hours to put him into the prosthetic suit for his role as Mr. Hyde in The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen (2003) and three hours to take the suit off.
- He is the son of the Scottish director Gordon Flemyng, who mainly worked in television but is also known for directing the two Doctor Who (1963) cinema films made during the 1960s starring Peter Cushing, Dr. Who and the Daleks (1965) and Daleks' Invasion Earth 2150 A.D. (1966).

- He has appeared in two films based on comics by Alan Moore - From Hell (2001) and The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen (2003).
- Acting was a way of talking to girls without being cool. Obviously there is the Ginger Freedom Front, but it was a battle until I was about 19 or 20.
- My fan website says 'site open since 1987, 37 visitors'. So I've got a very small but very dedicated group of fans I guess.
- My skill, which I've mastered, is being slightly out of focus behind really expensive actors.
- (On Seed of Chucky (2004)) "I was dressed as Santa, getting killed by a doll, on a set in Romania, thinking: 'Where did it go wrong?'"
