As I get older, my skin shows more of how I am feeling, like a mirror. If I am stressed, or not getting enough sleep, I see it in my face right away.

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

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

When I'm filming I live out of a suitcase, so everything is thrown everywhere. In real life, I'm a bit tidier.

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

It's nice to bring the changes with everything you do. As an actor, that's what you want to do, all the time.
