awful happen love romantic
I happen to know there is nothing sexy or romantic about love scenes. They are just awful to do.
love playing
I do love playing aristocrats, probably because it's so against type. So much more interesting than playing a version of yourself.

I worked in McDonald's, but I didn't mind it. You got free cheeseburgers. I love eating a bit of junk food.
love
I love washing, hoovering, ironing, you name it. I find it very therapeutic.

I've nothing against stay-at-home mums, but I love going to work, I love what I do and I wouldn't want to start resenting my home life if I was staying home 365 days a year.

I'm not saying that every night of the week, my husband, ex-husband, our children and I all sit around together like one big happy family. But we do see each other frequently, and everyone loves each other, and we are all friends.

We're not an acting family, but my parents have always encouraged me.
Yes, I'm anal. I am just really organised.
bit dull fine maggie michael quite sad smith stick
When you think about such fine actors as Maggie Smith or Michael Gambon, they do all mediums. I think it would be quite sad and a bit dull just to have to stick to one. I like all of them.
people
I went on two holidays as a child. It wasn't what people did where I grew up.
I was never one of those teenagers who sang into their hairbrush.
hope
I hope to be still acting when I'm 70 on TV, film and theatre.
dreams
I have quite a lot of anxiety dreams.
