Zitat des Tages von Sarah Alexander:
The appeal of comedy is that you're not going to look your best. Dressing up or dressing down is something I love and feel very comfortable doing. I feel at my least comfortable when I have to look at my best.
The older Mercedes is absolutely beautiful. It's got that lovely purring feeling as the engine ticks over, which you just don't get in a modern car.
I often think you need a lot of courage to be in the acting business. The job itself can be incredibly challenging for various reasons. Sometimes it's impossible and requires sheer guts.
I used to do things like white-water rafting, trekking and horse-riding safaris. Recently, though, I had the humiliation of having to turn away from a helter skelter. It's a very strange thing when you hit a certain age.
I do not understand the pleasure of being so famous. I just don't get it. I love acting and doing the work. That's what it's all about for me.
We're so immersed in ourselves at home, but when you're travelling, it's important to be open.
It's quite rare to be in something that you would love to watch as well.
I want to go to Denmark and Scandinavia. We've been inundated with their telly recently, and I've never been to any of those countries. I really want to get to know the people. I quite fancy living there for a bit if I could take a month off. They just seem like upfront, friendly folk.
People in comedy are just gorgeous, just the best human beings. They are naturally interested in other people and in playing something other than themselves.
Having started in theatre, for a long time I wanted to be a classical actress. But I've always loved making people laugh - at school, I was quite mischievous, and bit by bit, I found myself working more and more in comedy.
I'm too frightened to go on 'Celebrity Mastermind.' You really are shown up. Just you and a chair - there's no way out.
