since wee
I've been a 'Doctor Who' fan since I was a wee girl.
keeps tend yoga
I tend to do yoga before I go on stage, so that keeps me nice and calm.
I started horse-riding when I was a child and still try to go as often as I can.
art available takes types
I do worry because it takes all types to make our culture, to make our art. We need it to be available to all.
For a little while there, I was thinking, 'I don't want to be in anything on British TV'. I didn't watch any of it because it was rubbish.
fashion fits madly tend wear
Fashion isn't something I madly follow. I tend just to wear what I like and what fits me well.
believe definitely
In the Church of Scotland, Episcopalian, you don't have to believe in Heaven, but you definitely have to believe in Hell.
great medical
I really admire medical people. They have a great sense of humour, and they just have to get on with it.
wee york
Audiences are a wee bit more chatty in New York than in London.
against bit people women
Women are never the protagonists; we're always reactionary against everything that's done to us. I like people who write for women that have got a bit more about them.
grew hard prejudices tainted
It's hard to get the downtrodden working-class wifey sometimes because 'You don't look like it'. Well, that's weird because I grew up on a scheme in Paisley. But everyone's got a viewpoint about what you should look like, and it's tainted by prejudices and assumptions.
family
Thankfully, I have never experienced a miscarriage, but I have friends and family who have, and I've talked to them about their feelings.
although excited finish hours lizard love morning playing six skin spending
I love playing 'Madame Vastra.' Although I do suffer, spending three-and-a-half hours in make-up every morning to have her lizard skin put on. I was so excited the first day when we did the make-up test, but after six hours, I was like, 'Can we finish now?'
gets job
Conflict is always more interesting to play. Not everyone gets along in the trauma unit. In a hard-pressed job like this, there will always be friction.
