| Quote | |
|---|---|
| 1 | I’d love Anne Hathaway’s career. I think most people in my position would! |
| 2 | Now I mostly watch TV at night, in bed after a cup of hot chocolate, and at the moment I’m really, really into The Following (2013) with Kevin Bacon. |
| 3 | I’m rubbish at being me. I panic and say embarrassing things. Live interviews are the worst bit of the job. |
| 4 | [on “Our Girl”] The Afghanistan scenes were actually filmed in a quarry in Leighton Buzzard with a couple of goats. It was freezing but I relished the challenge of, say, trying to get over a 12ft wall when you’re only 5ft nothing. Most of the people in the film are real soldiers. |
