Sophie Winkleman Quotations

I'm playing an Amazon warrior princess in a new radio comedy series called 'Elvenquest,' and I'm playing a Russian genius in the comeback of 'Red Dwarf.'

I love doing the radio plays, creating a whole world with just the voice, and I'd love to be back on stage, too, at some point.

Have fun and play as many word games as possible.

I self-deprecate. When I first got here two years ago, I didn't realise that in America you can't go into the room and put yourself down.

When I try to concentrate, I really enjoy writing.

I tried to go to the gym a while ago and hurt my foot. I thought, 'Well, exercise and I just aren't meant to be.'

I was cast as the lead in a Warner Bros TV pilot and was immediately told I needed to lose weight. I got a bit weird about food for the first time in my life, and I thought, 'You know, this just isn't the life for me.'

For clothes, I like Anna on Regent's Park Road. Anna Park, who owns it, has an amazing eye for fresh, exciting clothes. I also love Arrogant Cat on Kensington Church Street. Space NK on Duke of York Square for exciting potions. I think I stretch the term 'tester' way beyond its boundaries.

The London Library in Piccadilly is the best place for a sleep.

I always loved being in London and being near my parents.
