It's very kind of 'Wuthering Heights' where my parents' house is, moors and deserted. It's very wild and mystic.

Ill-fitted T-shirts stretched over a gut are my pet hate. And if the colour's faded - ugh.

A lot of period pieces we see are adaptations of novels - we always know the story.

Fashion does seem to have a 20s comeback every few seasons, and I completely see why. Its a very feminine look: the fabrics and the shapes are very pretty and distinctive.

I love heels! I especially like heels by Nicholas Kirkwood, Jimmy Choo and Moschino.

I always play girls who are quite traumatised, or a plain girl, but I'm happy with that.

People recognise me when I'm holiday on the beach.
