For years, I was often afraid to speak up when I didn't fully understand a script. I'd tie myself in knots.

In the early '20s, with the war over, there was a period of celebration, and you can see it in the fashion.

When I was a child, I went to stage school three times a week in the evenings - singing, ballet, tap, modern and acting, and I loved it.

Cooking can cure almost anything.

I love discovering tiny streets.

Shakespeare's work is like a good song: you never really forget the main lines.

I love cycling, but if I could find a way of building something above the streets for cyclists, that would be amazing. We need even more space.
