My mum has told me that I have to work with Antonio Banderas just so that she can meet him and try and marry him.

My colleagues are my colleagues, my friends are my friends. It's never been male or female.

I didn't want to be the girl in the group that couldn't do as much as the boys. I'm very competitive like that.

Clothes are my drug. I love Camden market - I have so many vintage pieces from there it's unbelievable. Clothes are really important to me, they give me that feeling of happiness. I love being a bit free with it all and not giving myself rules.

You don't have to necessarily go down the drama school route, or have connections in the industry. You can just make it.

I’m a bit of a feminist and I carry a machete! I try to be a strong female. I think it’s important. My mum is my idol in life. She’s a very strong woman. I think it’s important for women to be strong and intelligent and hold their own.

I'm finding a lot of actors my age now who are a bit more like me, and not as posh or brought up in a certain way. There's now people of all sorts of kinds of backgrounds.
