- Myself
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I found myself at Cambridge, loved my course, and met these amazing people who got me heavily involved. I presumed I would have to go to drama school, but I did a play with my uni friends, who were doing lots of pub theatre in London, and through that met my agent. She said 'Don't go to drama school. I'll get you a job' and two weeks later she did.
- New
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I can't tell you the excitement to be in a new TV series or a play you've got to read for. That's the best.
- Me
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Yes, I go a little bit crazy when I'm not working, which is an issue for me. My background is you go to work; that's what you do.
- Always
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I was always about working. I like working. I don't like being unemployed. I love acting.
- Child
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
My whole family were from the East End, but they moved away when I was a child. They still cannot get their heads around the fact that I ran back to London as soon as I could, when I was 21.
- Filming
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Filming in London is brilliant.
- Nature
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
High-end divorce is a closed world. When I tried to research it, I was really surprised about how little there is out there. I think that's because of the nature of the subject matter - privacy is incredibly important to this level of client.
- Like
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
In this industry, people like to look at different faces on their screens - even I do.
- Job
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
It's now become a joke in my family that as soon as I finish a job, I'm on a loop saying, 'I'm never going to work again' - it drives everyone mad!
- Big Fan
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
'Unforgotten' was a bit of a no-brainer. I'm a big fan of crime dramas, but often the 'investigation' part goes much too smoothly - and you don't get that with this.
- Good
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
If you could make telly as good as radio, it would be amazing - audio can do things so easily that television can't.
- Ever
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I've only ever been on a long-runner with 'Spooks.'
- More
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
'Spooks' was very much of its time and rather unique, so I was more than happy to be in that as a long-runner - because I think we won't have that sort of show again. I think it was really, really unusual.
- Good
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
'Collateral' poses lots of questions and does it within the format of a really good, tense thriller. It starts at a real pace, and it doesn't let go.
- Power
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I would like to think that there are more women in positions of power, to actually get these projects off the ground that are more balanced, where the story is about men and women.
- Church
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
When the acting all dries up, I won't be going there - either to the police force or to the church. I'll have to think of something else!
- Marriage
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
'The Split' is actually really hopeful - although it's left me reeling slightly, thinking about what we do to each other in the name of love, within the contract of marriage.
- Hair
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I find the whole ceremony of marriage a bit like going to work. Putting on a lovely dress and make-up, learning lines, someone doing your hair.
- Family
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
There wasn't really anything I wanted to do other than acting, which is ridiculous because there were no actors in my family, and we didn't know anything about acting.
- Dad
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
My dad always jokes that if I ever write an autobiography, which I'm not going to, it'll be called 'It's Tough in the Middle.'
- Big
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I love being the first person to play a part. I really get a big thrill out of it.
- Me
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
The generation before me certainly told me that there would come a point when there were fewer parts, telling me to make hay while the sun shone. There was a time in my late thirties when I thought that it was something I had to get myself ready for, that things were going to slow down as I hit 40.
- Many
- |
- Nov 07, 2020

I completely respect the job our police do.
- Camera
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I noticed that, on 'Spooks,' there were a lot of women behind the camera and in different departments.
- Doing
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
When I'm not working, as a family we are obsessed with jumping off rocks into the sea and doing dangerous things.

My husband says I'm a grumpy lioness.
- Exodus
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I'm a proper Essex girl because my family was part of that great exodus from the East End.
- Look
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
The people I've met who are divorce lawyers, there's a sense of them having to look reassuringly expensive.
- Job
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I started when I was 21, and it was always about getting the next job - like most actors, that's all it's ever been for me.
- Just
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I just want to carry on doing high-quality work.
- He
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Once you've sat in a room annoying Derek Jacobi while he's trying to do his crossword, you're prepped for working with the greats.
- Good Stories
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
There are a lot of women - directors, producers, writers - involved in my career. They are all interested in telling good stories, and good stories involve men and women.
- Me
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
At home, people very rarely recognise me.
- Job
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
We bought a sofa with the money I made from 'Thunderbirds,' and I've still got it, and we call it Thunderbird 1. That's literally all I got out of the job.

- Nov 07, 2020

- Breakfast
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Breakfast is a battle. I never feel like eating, but I have now found my way to porridge. I have it with full-fat milk and banana.
- Food
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I was on a tour of a Restoration comedy in 1996, and in Moscow we stayed at the Metropole hotel, off Red Square. The food there was opulent, but in the Maly theatre canteen, there were just a few pieces of rye bread, peanuts, and gherkins. I stood in the queue and burst into tears.
- Finest
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Derek Jacobi is probably our finest actor.
- Appalling
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I'd be an absolutely appalling detective... Appalling.
- Cheaper
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
We lived in so many flats, and the more people you could get, the cheaper the flat was. Someone was always sleeping in the living room, and you're always slightly hiding them when the landlord came round.
- Me
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
When I bought my first little flat, it was two bedrooms, so I got Sarah Phelps to live with me. My years-later-to-be husband was slightly thinking, 'Why are you inviting your friends to live with you?' I was very resistant to leaving my friends.
