Zitat des Tages von Lesley Nicol:
My husband is a martial artist, and he thinks it's hilarious that I have a stage-fighting-proficiency certificate. He thinks that's ridiculous. Can't say I've used it much.
The first meal my husband ever made me was a chicken curry. I have never tasted anything so delicious in my life.
People I've never spoken to before come up to me and give me a hug.
I met Bette Midler, who I absolutely love.
I go dog-walking a lot.
As an actor, you never know where the work's going to come, so you have to be flexible about it.
I know it sounds funny, but every time I have a disaster in the kitchen, it knocks my confidence level a little bit more, and I feel annoyed with myself that I can't do better.
I mean, I've done musicals, but it's not my best thing.
One of the Sunday newspapers asked me to make my favorite dish, and they photographed me holding it in the kitchen. It was roasted salmon with roasted vegetables. That's not cooking; that's putting things in a pan. It looked quite nice, but I'm not saying it was good.
I sometimes wonder what it would have been like if I'd got 'Downton Abbey' when I was 22.
When you look back, I think things are as they are meant to be. Timing is very important.
I think I should be a nightclub singer. I love to sing!
My poor cooking is legendary among my friends.
I quite like L.A.
I was painfully shy as a child.
People have preconceptions about women of a certain age.
I'm an ambassador for Medical Detection dogs.
The first role I played was Madame Ranevsky in 'The Cherry Orchard.'
At the drop of a hat, people will say there are no roles for women after 40. It's there with a bunch of other rules I'm not interested in.
Visiting a show that's already established can be a bit daunting, as they've been a family already, and you're the newbie.
I want to have a scene with Maggie Smith.
