You don't like to have people believing that you're doing the wrong thing which is why we're trying to make sure that people recognise that we do the right thing.

I've worked for more than 50 years on the stage and I have played great, great, great roles, but I haven't played a great Shakespearean role because they're all male. I'm actually very proud of it.

Quite often I play roles that require quite a degree of emotional exposure, and they can be very difficult to do.

What takes courage: no make - up. No make - up at all. Like The Matrix. I did the matrix and they had a rule all the characters in The Matrix, except the leads, of course, wore absolutely nothing on their face.

There is a complete disconnect really or should be a disconnect between the retail price of the milk and what's actually going on in the marketplace, and what influences the farm gate price is the export market.

In some roles you do get into a mode of terror. It's always very frightening - the first audiences are frightening.

In comedy, it's very, very important to be able to open up so that people feel they're included.
