It's no one's fault to be born ugly, but, honestly, must it be worn as a symbol of pride?

And sometimes when I would get in the morning, when we'd go out - we'd see shrapnel and bits of stuff in the streets and bombed buildings, and - but I was evacuated a lot. Every time the blitz got heavy, my parents would take us off to the country.

I've said no to 'Celebrity Big Brother,' 'Strictly,' and the American one, 'Dancing With The Stars.' I don't feel it's right for me. I've been asked to do reality TV a zillion times. No way. No way. Nobody's going to get into my living room and see me there.

I think dieting is bad for you.

When I was at school, I was terrible at algebra and arithmetic, but I was always the best at English and literature. And acting, of course.

And I have a special cream that I use that I made myself that I invented, that I put on at night and during the day.

I have to say that those nine years were full of turmoil and drama and trauma to me, in actual fact.
