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!

I love my Spanish fans!

I was at a Golden Globes after party and Channing f**king Tatum came up to me, and his stunning missus, Jenna Dewan. And they said, 'We call each other moon of my life and my sun and stars’ and all that. I was like, 'I cannot contain this. Please, can we all have something sexual together? You're both beautiful. Even just a hug'.

A young Brit girl with no theatre experience decided to take on an iconic American role on Broadway. Maybe I should have thought that through?

All of the press and stuff - that's the scary stuff. The acting is what I got trained to do.

Never trust anyone whose TV is bigger than their book shelf

I long for the countryside. That's where I get my calm and tranquillity - from being able to come and find a spot of green.
