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.

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

Some people collect butterflies - I love beetles.

We all show facets, to your mother, or to your boyfriend, or a friend. You're always a bit different.

For me, working out is nothing to do with looks. It's to let it all out - the stress, the self-consciousness - you think less; it makes you more centred.

I rehearsed it a lot underwater with a mouthpiece for Casino Royale and not freaking out, because you can't see a thing. It's like being in a really bad nightmare. I've never seen somebody drown, but I really swallowed water. It was like choreography. It was very emotional. I was crying underwater at one point.

I'm not really involved with politics... I'm living in my cocoon with my classical music around.
