I'm an actress, not a celebrity.

I have a cottage near Aldeburgh, and from there its a sturdy two-mile walk across farmland to an empty beach, where I collect hag stones and run around with the dog. Im a keen walker, and I love Suffolks big skies.

I'm an actress, not a celebrity.

Its always been fun for me to play a variety of parts, and over the years, Ive been lucky with the things Ive been asked to do.

Good looks are not something you earn. But as you get older, how you look is a reflection of the life youve led.
