I am so thrilled to be nominated for something I loved working on every single day.

This is just the loveliest news. I'm so happy for everybody involved, and so proud to have been part of the wonderful experience that Philomena has been.

I think you can teach people a technique - you can teach them how to use their voices, how to breathe properly, how to move their limbs a certain way. But to actually explain how one performs comedy or drama or tragedy isn't the same as the movements one makes.

I have a completely new knee. It's brilliant. I am not feeling my age at all. I feel about 43, a willowy blonde 43 years old with long legs.

People seem to have this idea that I've always been very ambitious. Nothing could be further from the truth.

I like to push myself beyond the limit every now and again.

There is no past that we can bring back by longing for it.
