I am pretty self-indulgent.

The wonderful thing about acting is you move along with your decade. The older you get, the more interesting the parts you get to play and you bring more of your personal experience to the part

I've always kept fit but I've been doing gym and yoga and will be throwing my stilettoes away for a while!

I am not going to share my private life with millions of people. I don't find a need to do that and nobody else close to me does either.

I was always going to be a dancer - I drifted into acting.

Thank God we're not like America. Everyone wants to look like they're 20. In Europe we admire grown-up women; I think men revere older women.

I was seen dancing at school by a director, who asked me to be in a TV play. And it had a huge impact. So I think thats what really started me off.
