Like at Halloween: I knew I'd arrived when I saw people dressing up on Halloween as my character.

Then Mission Impossible brought me to Australia and that was great because I fell in love.

I just feel passionately about a few things and particularly about helping artists get off the ground.

It is a good thing to happen to you, to have that taste of fame because then you don't hanker for it.

I think some people in their 20s really get it, that acting is about creativity and the work. They get their maturity from their work.

I did the figure of Diana in V, a cult TV show seen all over the world.

I was on Murder She Wrote with Angela Lansbury. She was fantastic... she was lovely to everyone, she was always on time, prepared.

I feel lucky. I think acting can help to keep you young. It does make you feel there's meaning in your life.

The responsibility of leadership is not taken, it is given. Only when others choose to follow us can we truly lead.

I'd love to do a musical. I have a little list of them in my head.

Jazz is my adventure. I'm after new chords, new ways of syncopating, new figures, new runs. How to use notes differently. That's it. Just using notes differently.
