I'd like to rescue people in trouble, like Superman.

I don't usually get to play sophisticated women. I usually do the old scrubs, chavs or slappers.

I certainly never get above my station - my family would soon slap me back down to earth.

Not having gone to drama school, I always feel like a bit of a fraud, but so far it looks as though I've not been found out.

I do love Louboutin shoes, but I need to stop buying them because I don't go to many 'dos,' so they just line up. I'm normally in my trainers.

I have angel wings and a halo on my wrist, which I got done on my 30th birthday in memory of my brother.

I don't mind being unlikely. I'd rather that than be predictable.

I'm just some commoner trying to work in acting.

I prefer theatre to television - you get to feel the love.

I'm such a weirdo. I'm animal-mad, so my ideal date would probably be something involving going to see animals.

Angst is not the human condition, it’s the purgatory between what we have and what we want but can’t get.

I'm always looking for challenges.

I once travelled to Adelaide on Emu Airways. I was 5,000 ft up in the air when someone pointed out to me that emus can't fly

And, even yet, I dare not let it languish, Dare not indulge in memory's rapturous pain; Once drinking deep of that divinest anguish, How could I seek the empty world again?

I'm a stage actor. That is what I do.

My mind is like a gyre and odd juxtapositions happen.
