I've concentrated for a long time on English films because I've got two kids but my oldest son is 11 and I think I'm going to be away for about four months of year now.

I really enjoy making dinner for my kids and my husband - chopping ginger and marinating the tofu.

My childhood was colorfully anarchic and punctuated by a lot of change.

I've had four children and I've done a good job and I'm happy in life.

I was fiercely independent and ambitious from a very young age.

If the kids did want to get into showbiz then so be it, but I would never project anything on to my children.

I'm always the girl at the party who, within five minutes, has taken my heels off, hitched up my dress in my knickers, and probably spilt drink down my cleavage.
