The '90s were really just bad for fashion and hair.

Sometimes I feel like the kid left out - the weirdo with the silver hair that no one likes to talk to.

I told my parents I wanted to be an actor and they were getting ready for a life of unemployment so they're just happy I'm in work!

There are no captions on red-carpet photos that say, 'This girl trained for two weeks, she went on a juice diet, she has a professional hair and makeup person, and this dress was made for her.' I just wish they'd say, 'It ain't the truth.'

I spent most of my life watching HBO series wishing that at some point in my career I might be able to work with them.

Personally, I'd like as many children as I can pop out, I reckon. You come from a happy family; you want to create a happy family. And in the same breath, I'd like to be on stage at England's National Theatre, doing Miller and Chekhov. Give me a Sam Mendes/Tennessee Williams combination-that would be glorious. And to be making some Oscar-worthy movies with Scorsese. I'm always looking for the hard road. That way, you remain interested and interesting. Hopefully.

The calibre of TV's changing. It's becoming much more epic. To rival film, definitely.
