I love washing, hoovering, ironing, you name it. I find it very therapeutic.

I love fashion; I adore it. I love the madness of it.

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.

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.

There's nowhere to hide in the theatre. You can't be the one in rehearsal who doesn't know their lines.

It's a healthy thing to get some bad criticism. I'm still here and I'm fine, but I'd be lying if I said it didn't get to you reading the negative stuff.
