I've always liked women who are older. They seem to know who they are, and they've lived. They've got soul, and that's very attractive.

I was always in trouble from an early age. I had a fraught relationship with my parents, who were very traditional. Doing plays at school was a joyous release.

My mum made a conscious decision not to teach me any Indian languages so I wouldn't talk with an accent.

Lets just say I was really bad. Now I have grown into myself. I have changed.

Only when I came to America did I think of myself as British.

Just because I never went to university doesn't mean you can't read, although I do feel a bit uneducated from time to time.
