Towards the end of 'Dark Shadows,' the sets are cracking and bleeding, but so is Angelique. The fact that she breaks apart physically as well as mentally lends an added dimension, and I just loved playing that.

England understands good Chinese, Japanese and Indian cuisine; in France, we just get French.

I've never played a character that is just beautiful, but sometimes you can read scripts that sound so shallow, like women are objects. I've never done something like that, though.

When I'm at an event, I like to be an eccentric dresser. I will just keep wearing what I like.

I have my own style and don't really follow fashion, but I like leggings. They're easy to wear and can go with anything.

Oh, yeah, I like a high neck. And I like naked backs. It seems very sexy. Red carpets are about being a bit theatrical - having fun rather than being too safe. You have to be brave. Fashion is fun.

I go shopping maybe three times a year in an intense way. I'm like a man. Can't spend too much time in a shop.
