I can't get my knickers in a twist about my age and ageing in an industry that caters to the ids of 14-year-olds.

Patrick sort of had a very pragmatic, practical, Ed-like approach and went down to see.

It's terrifying to be the lead. There's a moment of excitement, and then pure terror.

Partying has never been my thing. I've been around some wild people. I've been in the same room and watched them experiment, and that's been entertaining.

The limelight is a tricky place, because you can't believe what's going on around you. You stop observing. You stop perceiving. You stop extending yourself, and you become isolated.

Honesty is not synonymous with truth.

I'm thinking about anything and everything. I'm making stuff up in my head, I'm using sense memory. Sometimes when it doesn't come and you've got no choice because you're getting paid to do it, you grasp at straws. It's always easy now with my kids. I just create some "what-ifs" in my head, something horrible that would devastate me as a mother.
