I would love to go back as Leela in this new series.

It's a comedy thriller, brilliantly written and it's full of twists and turns at every page. When I was reading it I was desperate to get to the end to find out what happens, it really hooks you.

They handled it very badly. It was disappointing and very humiliating. John York was very rude. He never consulted with me over what he said to the press.

I'm quite grateful to the BBC. They helped me back onto the touring circuit.

Tom is the most eccentric person I have ever worked with. We get on very well and I am most impressed with how he can hold an audience in the palm of his hand.

I never watch TV. I'm a Radio Four addict. I love listening to music too.

I think it's one of my favourite theatres ever, so quirky and wonderful and steeped in history. The space is wonderful and the acoustics are brilliant.

I cannot understate the ability to handle classical texts such as Shakespeare.

They can certainly expect to be very impressed with the technical aspects of the show, fooled and led up the garden path by the story and ultimately have a jolly good laugh!

We were the victims of the new producer but what annoyed me was they told the press we were leaving before us.

I found that a bit unfair. However, I did feel quite liberated when I left. I'm very grateful to the show - it revived a flagging career, but I'm glad to be away from it now.

There is something hidden in each sensation.

What I love about making movies is that it's a collaboration. It's one of the most rewarding things, to create something and have someone show you something that you didn't see, and vice versa.

The age, you know. A man can be wiser and wiser, and a woman is older and older.

Globalization offers us enormous opportunities in the race to leapfrog in development processes. It also obliges us to set in motion processes which would minimize its risks.

What a man notices first about a woman is whether she notices him.

You won’t be famous until people start saying the worst things they can about you. Don’t worry! It’s a good sign!

I have to wear heels. There are some things that you just have to do.

Apple and Google will compete like crazy for our data because once they have it we'll be their customers forever.

I have yet to have a successful outcome of sitting in a room with someone and trying to write a song. The way that I generally co-write is that someone else writes the music or part of the music.

How many cowards whose hearts are all as false As stairs of sand, wear yet upon their chins The beards of Hercules and frowning Mars, Who inward searched, have livers white as milk!
