I have a lot of mirrors around my house, not because I like to look at myself, but because I like the light and perspective they bring to a room.

Do I think I'm under-educated? Academically, absolutely. I never took any exams, no O- or A-levels.

I like solitary pursuits, such as reading or pottering about in the garden.

If ever I feel I might be able to tackle it, I'd love to try holding a spear or something in the theater, or opening a door, or anything, just to try it, you know, because it must be some marvelous magic thing.

I'm a lazy creature when I'm not acting.
