My first car was in 2006 when I got on my first TV show - a BMW 328i2 four-door sedan in slate grey. That was a great day, that was.

I'm such a fan girl when it comes to movies, TV and sci-fi, sometimes I can't believe I actually get to be in them.

I never did any sports at school. It wasn't until I moved to America, to New York, when I was about 20 that I actually thought that if I wanted to be an actress I might have to start working out.

I'm just naturally quite toned. My dad was like a body builder, so I've got my dad's body. Not all of it, thank God.

I hate watching myself on TV, I know a lot of actors say that, but it's true for me. It makes me sweat, I have to hide behind a cushion.

The danger with playing someone tough is that the character can become two-dimensional and mean and nobody likes her.

If I have the power to post 'Happy Birthday' on someone's Facebook page and make them feel really good, it feels really good to make other people feel really good. I love it. I'm a huge Facebook and Twitter person. And I love talking to my fans. It's fun.
