The thing that impresses me most about America is the way parents obey their children.

My forehead is sometimes too high, but bangs could correct this.

I'm 5 9, and there were two stars in my life who didn't mind that I was taller than they - George Raft and John Garfield.

This has taught me that being pleasant is always so much more productive, for I know well the rewards for being good-natured.

'EastEnders' has been wonderful to me and it's no secret that it changed my life all of those years ago. I'll be so sad to leave Peggy behind; she's such a wonderful character to play. I have had the pleasure of working with a marvelous cast and crew and have made many lasting good friends.

The beautiful thing is that ageism just doesn't exist on 'EastEnders.' The show saved me.
