My dad is the type of person that says yes to life, and to the adventures it throws at you. Because of that, he never forced me into a particular career, or had wild expectations for me; his concern was simply that I was fulfilled and happy.

I think we sort of are all fans of love really, if you're not then you're too cynical aren't you?

If the right job came along, absolutely with bells on I would work in Sweden.

I don't really see myself as famous.

Normally I'm really lucky because I can go down to my local shops and no one cares. I take the Tube and the bus so it's kind of the perfect balance.

I always joke that I'm a British actress trying to break into Scandinavian TV.

It's nothing sinister but my private life belongs to me.
