When asked what projects he had in the pipeline, Wentworth replied: "I'd love to be involved in a romantic comedy or something like that. It would be great to take my career in a completely different direction."

Wentworth, 36, also revealed he has to warn his mother every time something bad happens to his character in the series.

He added: "When something terrible happens to Michael, which is every other episode, I have to give my mom a heads-up or else I get a stern phone call the day after where she tells me how upset she got."

Wentworth recently confessed he is afraid of the kitchen.

Despite playing a macho escape artist in the show, the actor admits he is scared of cooking, and would even have trouble whipping up a simple Italian dish.

He said: "I don't cook. I'm afraid of the kitchen - when the stove's on it makes me nervous. If I actually leap over that hurdle and cook something simple, like Spaghetti Bolognaise, that would really show someone I'm into them."
