- Everyone
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I always felt slightly grubbier than most American people. I was never quite as groomed as everyone else, never quite as fit as anyone else. I didn't have my protein shake and my vitamins.
- Focus
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I always knew I wanted to be an actor, certainly from the age of eight or nine. I think when you know what you want to do, you're very lucky because you've got a focus.
- Moment
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Before I lived in America, my husband and I did a Californian road trip. We took a month, starting off in L.A. I love the landscapes of California: one moment you're in the desert, the next you're up in the Napa Valley or by the water in Big Bear.
- Husband
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
My husband is always telling me: 'We're on holiday - we don't need to have an itinerary!' But I always want to see as much as I can. Sometimes, I come back from holiday needing a holiday.
- Language
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
We have a house in Umbria that we bought just before we went to America. That meant we couldn't go there as often as we thought, but now we're back, we're going to start using it more. I love the light, the countryside, the language and the fact that children are accepted everywhere. The Italians get passionate about everything, too.
- Different Religions
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I don't even think places like the National Youth Theatre (NYT) are necessarily about wanting to be an actor when you grow up. They're about meeting people from different backgrounds and different religions and different cultures, and mixing with people that you wouldn't ordinarily meet.
- Conducting
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I think that children that are acting are always pretty savvy anyway because you're conducting yourself around adults a lot of the time, aren't you? But there is this worry now that children just want to be famous.
- Like
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
There's just no place like Scotland when the sun is out. I just love coming home.
- Funny
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I do quite like sightseeing. I like churches, museums, galleries and all that stuff. I love the smell of a church in Italy or the smell of an old greasy spoon somewhere. I like markets and little funny shops in the backstreets of Florence.
- Doing
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I'm not a big one for sitting by the pool doing nothing.
- Father
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I want to go to Lapland and see Father Christmas, and now I've got a child, so I've got an excuse. Also, I'd like to go to South America especially as I'm now living in that part of the world, in L.A. now. And I must get down to Mexico.
- Lines
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I think we should be proud of the fact that our face has got lines, because at least that means we have lived.
- People
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I think it's strange when people my age and younger get surgery. Somebody's got to play old people.
- Nobody
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Nobody is more individual than you, so be confident with who you are and what you have to offer because everybody has got things to offer.
- People
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I made some flippant remark about not wanting my son to grow up with an American accent, and the next thing I knew, there were people in America suggesting I head back to Britain if I was unhappy at such a prospect.
- Name
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I have just been working with Maggie Gyllenhaal, who is also a mum, on a movie called 'Hysteria.' She is everywhere because of the nature of film work. Not that I'm name dropping or anything like that. I have to pinch myself when I remember who I've been working with.
- Friends
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Everything has happened so fast for me that I sometimes can't take it all in. I'm a huge 'Friends' fan, and meeting Matthew Perry in L.A., where he was as keen to talk to me about 'Extras' as I was to him about 'Friends,' was amazing.
- Morning
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
It means I wake up to sunshine every morning, and I can afford to drink better wine at night. But I haven't completely sold out to Hollywood.
- Myself
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I just wanted to be an actress. It never occurred to me that I could become famous, because I'm not one of those people who's automatically going to be the lead. I always saw myself as the mate.
- Me
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I was on my own, living in Los Angeles, and I didn't know my way around, so I thought I'd walk everywhere. Well, that certainly got me noticed. Any woman who walks any distance at all is automatically regarded as a hooker!
- Life
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Life's too short to worry about injecting botulism into your face to get rid of a tiny line because you've laughed too much. To me, that's a bit warped.
- King
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I did a lot of theatre when I started out. It was the Lyceum, the Citz, the Tron and the Traverse. I came to London and did the Royal Court, the National, 'King Lear' at the Manchester Royal Exchange. I did little bits of comedy, like 'Rab C Nesbitt,' but I wasn't predominantly about comedy.
- Me
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I was Lady Gaga way before her time. I had a wee kettle for a handbag. Didn't everyone, at some point? One of the teachers used to call me Dame Flora Robson because I had this big, long Victorian skirt. And I wore a Peruvian hat. It was the 1980s - people were wearing lots of lace.
- End
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
When I hear the bagpipes, it makes the hairs on my neck stand on end. It always makes me weep.
- Never
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
My mother has only just got over the fact that I will never play Shrek's sister - because of the Scottish accent, she thought I'd be perfect.
- Full-Time Job
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I take my hat off to mums who have lots of kids. Anyone that says being a mum isn't a full-time job has obviously never had any.
- Life

- Nov 07, 2020
My mum Margaret was a single parent, but though life was a bit of a struggle she gave me every encouragement.
- Good
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I know what I look like. I'm not a babe who's automatically going to be the leading-lady type. I think I would always be cast as the friend. I probably tend to look crap more often than I look good. I like messing around and pulling funny faces and doing funny walks.
- Birthday
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
As a child, I always chose a false nose and some face paint and a wig for my birthday.
- Clothes
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I've always been quite thrifty. I can't bear to spend hundreds of pounds on designer clothes. I shop in second-hand shops in Portobello Road and go to Sue Ryder.
- Chaplin
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I wanted to live where I could pop to the bar that Humphrey Bogart took Lauren Bacall to, or the little restaurant where Charlie Chaplin had a booth.
- Family
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
To my family and friends, I'm very definitely a clown. But do you know what? Doing a drama would almost seem easy because I wouldn't need to find that gag in a line.
