However successful you are, there is no substitute for a close relationship. We all need them.

Francesca Annis

Everything has changed. An interview has become such a confrontational thing. It makes you very defensive.

Francesca Annis

You can love more than one person in your life, but things will be different. There'll be a different dynamic. Needs and desires change.

Francesca Annis

I am not going to share my private life with millions of people. I don't find a need to do that and nobody else close to me does either.

Too often, older women are seen as victims, but I know lots of formidable women who have marvellous jobs as well as a full erotic life, and children and friends and family.

I'm an actress, not a pinup.

I've never been married and I've no more desire to be married now than I ever have. I hate bureaucracy and I am not religious.

I can feel the 60S looming. In my profession, I've just moved along with my age. By thinking in decades, rather than whether someone's 42 or 47, you can give yourself a whole 10 years to turn yourself around in.

You can be revered for all sorts of qualities, but to be truly charismatic is rare. Elizabeth Taylor was, for me, one of those rarities.

Francesca Annis

I used to suffer from excessive pride. Well, I got over that one.

I go on giving interviews because I've been brought up to support the projects I'm involved in. When you've enjoyed working on a production, you want to do them a favour.

Francesca Annis

The funny thing is I'm not bothered or sad about being on my own - after all I've never had a husband.

Francesca Annis

I have always done exercise because I was a dancer, and it is probably good for you. I have done yoga consistently.
