family settle
No one in my family is in entertainment. They thought acting was a fun hobby, and when I got a degree, I'd settle down.
good involved people
'Skins' is about a group of teenagers in Bristol, and it's all about what they get up to and all the different things they do. I think it's a good show because it's come from a very real place, and there's a lot of young people involved in the writing.
clothes lend lose parts wear
I never, never lend any of my own clothes for parts any more because you lose your clothes; they become the characters' clothes, and you can never wear them again.
comparable created element entirely fictional high terms
I don't think there's any show comparable to 'Game of Thrones' in terms of the way it does the fantasy element to such a high standard: everything is created with so much care and detail. You really feel like you are transported into this entirely other fictional place.
blonde nativity vague wearing
Was I in a nativity play? I think I was an angel; I was a very blonde child, so I tended to get typecast. I have a vague memory of wearing wings.
human
Stuart Murdoch is a really special human being - really creative, but also really kind and gentle.
hardest
One of the hardest things to do in acting is to stop thinking about yourself and stop being self-conscious.
age great time
On 'Chatroom,' everyone was so nice, and we had a really great time together; we were around the same age and got on really well.
scene
I can remember on the first day on 'Chatroom,' it was just one scene for the whole day, which was a really nice luxury to have.
good music musical occasion proper trained
I'm not a trained singer at all. I've auditioned on occasion for proper musical theatre-type stuff, but I can't read music, and I wasn't particularly good at it.
few people performing possible quickly
Do people ever ask me to say 'Wow?' Never in interviews, but a few times on the street. I don't do it. I try to get away from them as quickly as possible and explain that I'm not a performing seal.
bit egos good people quite
You can tell when people think they're a little bit special, and it's quite fun to laugh at them, and I think it's good to laugh at them, because then you can deflate their egos a bit.
female main rather roles women
There are so many female roles - particularly for young women - that are just somebody's girlfriend or somebody's daughter, or that are accessories to the main story rather than being three-dimensional characters.
feeling loved musical thrilling
I've always loved musical films; I find them really thrilling and exciting; it was part of what made me want to be an actress, that feeling of being really transported.
