What I've always loved about gymnastics and one of the many reasons I love watching it now is the combination of skill and freedom it has - the discipline and expression - letting you dance.
gymnastics squad expression
I did rhythmic gymnastics and I absolutely adored it. I was in the squad for Sussex. I wasn't stupendous, but it was something that I was good at and I really loved the combination of discipline and expression. That, to me, was just dreamy.

I think everybody has the capacity for change.

My parents treated my height as a wonderful thing to be celebrated, but also normal.

I've always liked fairy tale and spectacle. I wouldn't say I was a fantasy fan, but anything beyond reality I've always found exciting - the work of David Lynch, the work of Tim Burton. But for me, I also love those things that are absolutely about human relationships.

Rory McCann is an amazing actor and a very strong man.

My pseudonym is 'George R. R. Martin.' That guy's just an actor.
adjust wear
I like to be comfortable. And I don't like to have to worry about having to adjust things if things are too short; I don't want to feel self conscious, so I like to wear things that make me feel empowered.
femininity women
I don't know, so much of women's femininity is tied up with their hair.
