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.
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.
people
The Turkish people are the friendliest I've ever met.
bit eating food free junk love mind worked
I worked in McDonald's, but I didn't mind it. You got free cheeseburgers. I love eating a bit of junk food.
rather
I am not into action and adventure on holiday; that doesn't really do it for me. I would much rather go and lie down.
cheekbones everybody fill fringe
Botox and other fillers make everybody look the same, with the big cheekbones where they fill you up. It's much cheaper to have a fringe - it takes years off everybody.

There's nowhere to hide in the theatre. You can't be the one in rehearsal who doesn't know their lines.
episodes abbey
I've never seen an episode of 'Downton Abbey.'
size very-happy
Im a size 12 and Im very happy with it.
posh
There are lots of actors who are posh and stick with that, and there are lots of actors who are cockney, and that's what they do. That's fine, but I don't think that could be said about me.
