I think comedy's something you can't learn. It's an instinct, which makes it rather elusive.

I was the little, funny one. I felt I was the child among grown women.

Being a mother adds another emotional dimension, a feel for children that I didn't have before I had one. They were a pain before.

I wanted above all else not to be like my mum.

I don't want to give up acting - it's what I am.

I was feeling very irritable. It was that difficult time of the month when the credit card statement arrives.

I'm too young at 50. I'm not grown up yet. There's part of everybody like that.
