I'm not very much of a foodie; I like small amounts of delicious things, but I've never overeaten - I'd much rather have a glass of wine.

I hope to start enjoying flirting again when I'm 70, like my mother did.

It's nice not to have lines when you frown, especially on TV. I don't know why people make such a fuss about it. No one is interested if a woman has her teeth capped or her hair dyed.

As we have more women in power, so the plays and the TV dramas are reflecting what's happening.

I don't think, until you've actually lost somebody you really love, that you can go through that door that allows you to be grown-up.

Success breeds success, and failure leads to a sort of fallow period.

I love gentle, gorgeous classical music such as Mozart.
