I'd like to rescue people in trouble, like Superman.

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

I'm grateful to be working. The most exciting thing for me is that I never get bored - I've done comedy, drama, musical theatre and now Shakespeare.

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

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

My brother is the lead singer of The Torn, and my parents are in a country duo.

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