I can make a virtue of slapdash. Slapdash can give you courage.

One year you go in for auditions, and everybody thinks you're the queen of comedy, and the next year, you're so 'yesterday,' and it's not because you've done anything, or your ability has changed; you haven't been in work because you've been putting on weight and then trying to lose it.

I've got a great relationship with my dad, but I can imagine how annoying it would be if I had to move back into his house.

I definitely used to write a lot at school. Comic poetry and drawings about people.

I dont have the self-discipline for diets; I break rules I set for myself, so I try and eat more healthily, juice more, and avoid sugar.

I have three boys, so I live in a household full of testosterone.

My blood runs cold when I hear the 'great news' that we have found a marker for the Down's syndrome gene, which means we can identify it more easily. Why is that good news? It's only good news if you're going to terminate.
