I really fancy Eddie Redmayne. I wouldn't mind a few steamy scenes with him.

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

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.

Women had cup sizes to track their development. Men had a ruler and hope.

By thinking big, we can transform our world.

I realize that I had the best of serious picture journalism.

There wasn't a rich father or rich family that paid for everything that I have right now, so I worked my way.

The thing you realize as you get older is that parents don't know what the Hell they're doing and neither will you when you get to be a parent

The Greek sculptor - I don't think he was very different from any of us.

Love until it hurts. Real love is always painful and hurts: then it is real and pure.

Directing is like guitar playing. That's a unique mind-set and talent, unto itself. I like the idea of putting everything together to make a great movie.

A country should be defended not by arms, but by ethical behavior.
