As an actor, I'm in such a privileged position because my work is job by job. If something doesn't fit in with family life, there's more flexibility.		102
Having my own family has made me realise there's more to life than chasing the next job.		103
I love my work, and I feel fortunate to be doing a job I love, but it isn't the centre of my life.		104
Acting was a slow-burn thing. I found it was something I really, really liked doing, but it wasn't until my third year at drama school that I actually thought, 'Oh, right, I'm trained for this now; I'd better see if I can do it.'		105

I know some people are really comfortable with talking about their feelings and hopes and fears in public, but I'm not, and I don't think it's that extraordinary.		107
My family weren't actors, and we didn't know any actors. It wasn't even something I was aware you could do as a job. I thought you had to be a Redgrave or a Barrymore before you were allowed to go to drama school.		108
It's funny landing parts now where I'm somebody's mum. I remember the first time I was asked to play a mum. I was easily old enough, but because I didn't have any children, I thought, 'That seems really grown-up.'		109
Being an actor does make you aware of your age.		110
I've been very fortunate.		111
Getting older doesn't bother me. When I was 30, I thought I should have achieved more, but you get more comfortable and think it's time to stop putting pressure on yourself.		112
I know it sounds ridiculous, but I haven't quite got over the miracle that you plant things, and they do sprout up.		113

By the time I was 10, I had lived in 11 different countries.		116
I'm not cool at all. I'm the least cool person I know.		117
I have this sense of humour which is about as sophisticated as a seven-year-old schoolboy. I get very overexcited and silly.		118
I'm guilty of it myself, sort of thinking, 'Classic novels: snoozeville.' But there is a huge amount of wonderful material.		119
Period drama is such a huge umbrella term: it seems to cover everything from Claudius to something from the 1920s.		120
'Pride And Prejudice' takes place in a similar period to 'Vanity Fair,' and yet there's a huge difference between Jane Austen and Thackeray.		121
I really like working, the opportunity to work with good people and to play interesting parts.		122
