I'm happy with the way I look, but I'm not Hollywood beautiful.

I've rarely played glamorous roles. I don't mind looking plain on camera.

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

As an actor, you always want to do the juicy stuff. But, it's important to get the levels right.

I grew up on a farm - it was a lovely life; we'd make tree houses all day - and my parents worked from home.

I want the chance to play very different characters, and I've always wanted to do more films.

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