[In "The Invisible Woman"] was a different type of performance which was less driven by improv. You always want moments of freshness and newness, but there was less so than I've done before.

I'm attracted to playing people who aren't necessarily straightforward.

I was a tomboy running around in the garden. I used to play on a local cricket team. I grew up with all boy cousins, for the most part, and my brother.

We live in a time where it's more surprising if people are actually together than if they're having affairs.

When you're believing in the person that you're playing, you feel protected. It's about being true to that person you're playing.

I'm keen to have balance, as much as possible.

I think that when something happens when you're growing up, like a death or divorce, it does open the world slightly because things aren't as straightforward.
