I do love Louboutin shoes, but I need to stop buying them because I don't go to many 'dos,' so they just line up. I'm normally in my trainers.

I swore on screen when I got the Olivier for 'Legally Blonde,' I was so surprised. Awards where the public vote mean a lot. I'm a big Twitter fan and like talking to people who support me.

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

I really fancy Eddie Redmayne. I wouldn't mind a few steamy scenes with him.

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

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.

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