In fact at home I sometimes like to be quiet and hear the sounds of the world outside.

I hate that people think going to the theatre is a special occasion. I wish people would treat it as normally as going to the cinema.

I think people often confuse success with fame and stardom.

The academy awards in England; it's a classy affair as well.

At the risk of sounding naff, it is having hope fulfilled.

I've done a lot of costume drama and theatre - the National Theatre and In fact, most of my work at the theatre, at the National Theatre anyway, was period.

I've made six films since I made Secrets and Lies but I still live in London and I'd love to do theater.
