I plant a lot of trees. I am a great believer in planting things for future generations. I loathe the now culture where you just live for today.

A lot of people have it - that fantasy of being lord or lady of the manor, either in the present or at some time in history.

Shyness is just egoism out of its depth.

We have this wonderful language and we don't appreciate it. That's old-fashioned me, but when I went to school, everyone had elocution lessons, not to sound posh but so you could be understood.

We always had chocolates and my mother was careful to make sure they were unwrapped in advance so the paper wouldn't rustle in the middle of a performance.

Everyone wants instant everything, and they want instant success, but I always think you should treat things in the arts like a garden, and let them grow.

I always used to say when I was on television that I prefer to be on stage and when on stage I prefer to do television. Typical human condition.

I'm not against accents - my husband's from Lancashire and has a rural Lancs accent. We've just got back from Scotland yesterday, and I love that Highland burr.

So often actors only mix with actors, which is quite incestuous, and doesn't give them the insight into how other people work.
