Family is 100 per cent my top priority.

My name is actually quite a popular name in Scotland. People elsewhere always think it's far more exotic than it is. In Scotland, it's a common name.

Comedy has always been important in my family. If you got in a good joke at the dinner table, it meant more than almost anything else.

In real life I'm obviously a lot more shy, but once I'm on set and in costume and I'm hidden behind the person I'm playing I feel quite free to experiment.

I love acting, love it. It's the greatest fun in the world. I've never had trouble feeling extremely grateful.

I think your heart dances to the beat of your own drum, and I’m the happiest I’ve ever been.

Women should not have to adopt masculine traits in order to succeed. You should be able to stay as a woman, and in tune with your femininity, and still be equal.
