I'm so excited to be working on Doctor Who as it's such a big and important part of British Culture. I can't wait to meet the cast and crew and start filming, especially as we'll be shooting not too far from my home town.

When I come home, I'm just Maisie, and everywhere I go, I'm just Maisie!

I once had someone say to me in an interview, 'You are more ugly on the screen than in real life.'

When I was in primary school, my best friend was a boy and we always goofed around, climbed trees, got holes in my trousers and muddied all my tops and things like that; a complete nightmare for the washing, but great fun.

Not a lot of people have jobs that they're really comfortable with, but I'm one of those people. I feel like I'm the luckiest girl on earth, and that's such a lovely feeling.

I have a Facebook page for me and my friends and a Twitter page.

If you've got cool nails, you wake up and you're like, 'Oh, I'm happy now.'
