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.

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.

The log on the fire: is it dreaming of the forest?

I knew how severe I had been and how bad things had been. The one who is doing his work and getting satisfaction from it is not the one who poverty bothers.

It'll be with me like it was with Uncle Ned's ole ox, I reckon; he kep' a-goin' an' a-goin' till he died a-standin' up, an' even then they had to push him over.

SNSD is a group of 9 girl female students. We’re pretty one by one as well,but its when we’re all together that we can really shine.
