I was brought up very conservatively. My father was positively Victorian - I wasn't even allowed to wear my hair down.

I am as far from a hypochondriac as you could ever be.

I spend hours mowing the lawn in absolutely straight lines on my tractor. If it's not right, I do it again.

I don't sleep with happily married men.

There are so many young women who throw their talent away.

I dieted all the time in the Sixties, but we had no idea what dieting meant - we thought it meant not eating anything.

Fame overcomes everything.
