I had to live and breathe Margaret Thatcher for a few months. I totally engulfed myself in her life. I read her autobiography and a biography, 'The Grocer's Daughter.'

My ambition is to become one of those actresses that is like a chameleon that you don't recognize.

Transformations don't scare me: it thrills me to become the polar opposite.

I went to stage school with a neighbor to build confidence because I was quite shy.

Actresses are mental on the whole. But I think I'm pretty normal.

I cant wait until Im able to afford really posh bags.

Hairpieces are brilliant for adding volume.
