I don't particularly like babies. I don't mind them for about four minutes. That's my max. After that I can't quite see what everyone's fussing about.

The reason I turn down 99% of a hundred, I mean a thousand, scripts is because romantic comedies are often very romantic but seldom very funny.

My grandmother was utterly convinced I'd wind up as the Archbishop of Canterbury. And, to be honest, I've never entirely ruled it out.

Now [after doing Pilates], I have muscles of steel and could easily deal with giving birth.

Strangely enough I'm better on a stage. I love that I feel like I blossom in front of a whole bunch of people.

At home, I hardly ever leave London. I don't like the countryside in England.

I've always enjoyed sex scenes, though you're not really supposed to. The classic answer is, 'Oh, it's not sexy at all because there are so many technicians standing around.' But I've always found them extremely arousing.
