I didn't want to do it... I'd been trying to get out of TV for years!

I work out, I go to pilates, I walk and I eat everything I can get my hands on.

I had just had small parts in other films, and I'd worked with a lot of directors in TV.

It hasn't been smooth or delightful every minute, there were lean years and rough years, but it's been exciting and good and I'm thrilled to be an actress and a singer and to have spent my life this way.

I was in group therapy for years but it wasn't the same thing. It was more about growing.

We've been together 32 years and married for 27.
