I don't usually get to play sophisticated women. I usually do the old scrubs, chavs or slappers.

Maybe I'm going from that tomboy-ish state to feeling a bit more womanly. I've enjoyed wearing some fancy frocks. It's nice once in a while.

People can never work out where they know me from. They just come up and chat with me like mates.

I don't mind being unlikely. I'd rather that than be predictable.

I pull my eyelashes when I'm tired or thinking - it's a nervous thing.

When you're hiding behind a character all the time, as soon as you have to be yourself, you feel kind of terrified.

I'm such a weirdo. I'm animal-mad, so my ideal date would probably be something involving going to see animals.
