Nov 07, 2020

It's interesting when people say, 'You always play strong women,' because as far as I'm concerned, women are strong. I think that's what women are. We have got that vulnerability, but we have got that strength. We are survivors.

Job
|
Nov 07, 2020

Every job still feels like the first time.

Men
|
Nov 07, 2020

I'm very independent, probably quite selfish, and like being able to disappear at the drop of a hat without having to explain myself - most men would find that a pain, wouldn't they?

Friend
|
Nov 07, 2020

I was a tomboy. In my clubbing days, my friend Lucy Davies-Hunt - half-Iranian, looked like Yasmin Le Bon - could wear catsuits, while I was the one in the sweatshirt, jeans, and Fila boots.

Old
|
Nov 07, 2020

When I graduated, I was my biggest ever: 15 stone, with a boyfriend - my first - of just 11 stone. I was 23 years old. It wasn't just affecting my career: it was a health issue as well.

Being
|
Nov 07, 2020

I reckoned my accent and class would count against me; I didn't see actresses as being working-class.

Business
|
Nov 07, 2020

You want to go to your deathbed saying, 'I didn't sell out.' But it's a tough business to keep to what you believe in and get through and do well.

Nov 07, 2020

I think, as a woman, you've got to make so many sacrifices.

Judge
|
Nov 07, 2020

I went to the Old Bailey, and I met a judge, and I was petrified, but they were like, 'Oh, you're an actor, well, great.' It was a bit like we're cut from the same cloth a little bit.

Love
|
Nov 07, 2020

I love 'Splash!' and 'Take Me Out.' Not that I'd ever do 'Splash!' It's the parading on British TV in a swimming costume I couldn't handle.

Me
|
Nov 07, 2020

I watch 'Take Me Out' mainly for Paddy McGuinness. When we were younger, we worked together as lifeguards at the Bolton Leisure Centre.

House
|
Nov 07, 2020

'Toast of London' is a must-watch. Matt Berry's off-the-wall humour is slightly surreal and a little bit deviant. That's why I also love 'House of Fools.'

Ignored
|
Nov 07, 2020

We still have an underclass in this country who are constantly ignored and vilified.

Me
|
Nov 07, 2020

If I feel like if there's a few too many people on that path with me, then I want to jump off and find another one.

Know
|
Nov 07, 2020

We shouldn't still be asking, 'Have you got children? Why've you not got children? Ooh, you must have children!' Bog off, d'you know what I mean?

Always
|
Nov 07, 2020

What is male and what is female? I don't always feel female.

Me
|
Nov 07, 2020

They always said to me that I needed to be more feminine. I think it's so wrong. Being boisterous doesn't mean you are not feminine.

Said
|
Nov 07, 2020

When I was growing up, because I was a bit overweight and boyish, I thought I wasn't attractive to the opposite sex, but I have since met lads from my school who said I just seemed unapproachable.

Difficult
|
Nov 07, 2020

Often, when I am playing difficult roles, I have a problem sleeping because I can't leave the character behind.

Daughter
|
Nov 07, 2020

I used to think the store detective had followed me all the way home and would knock on the door and go, 'Hello, is this your daughter? She's got three blue lipsticks and a moisturiser from Boots in her bag.' We just used to nick crap. Not even stuff we wanted.

Die
|
Nov 07, 2020

I care about my work, but I don't care about getting it wrong. The more you do, the more you realise nobody's going to die.

Idiot
|
Nov 07, 2020

The 'Bolton News' is the best place for online comments. They say I'm an absolute idiot and a communist anarchist. I was never an anarchist; I was a communist!

People
|
Nov 07, 2020

People think I'm clever, which is hilarious. I'm like, 'When did this happen? People used to think I couldn't string a sentence together.'

Nov 07, 2020

Sometimes the darker the work, the more fun you can have.

Character
|
Nov 07, 2020

I take bits and pieces from everything. But I think the Method can be very isolating, and sometimes it's more about ego than playing the character truthfully.

Process
|
Nov 07, 2020

I think an actor's process should be very personal and private, and sometimes I have thought, 'Oh, please, put it away now.'

Horse
|
Nov 07, 2020

I've always fancied being a bit of warrior, on a horse swinging a sword around, sorting out the men... Oh yes, that sounds lovely.

Mean
|
Nov 07, 2020

I get very irate with actors when they talk about how distressing it all is. I mean, it's only acting. Please.

Got
|
Nov 07, 2020

I love hoovering. People go to therapists; I've got a Hoover.

Interest
|
Nov 07, 2020

Cooking, you can keep. I've not the slightest interest in it.

Me
|
Nov 07, 2020

I think all things are political... How women are portrayed - that's a big thing for me. What is this role trying to say about women? Is this woman weak or victimised, and, if so, do we get to understand why?

Nov 07, 2020

Everybody's in a situation; everybody has a story. It's about finding out why.

Nov 07, 2020

We take things at face value, don't we? You form an opinion about something immediately, but you ought to step back a bit. Take in the vista first.

Kid
|
Nov 07, 2020

For me, I'm still always that kid from Bolton.

Actor
|
Nov 07, 2020

When I'm not acting, I don't feel like an actor.
