It's like finding oneself amongst friends. People look at you as if they like you. That is, until they actually get to know you.

I mean, there's not an awful lot of limelight. Perhaps at premieres and the pictures and the people; that's all exciting. But the actual work, like today: it's just work; it's just the work I happen to do instead of going to an office and being a secretary or in a shop, you know?

It definitely can be really hard being away from friends and family for so long. People expect you to be different when you come back. But I love it, I love coming home. I really want to start coming back here more often ? it's so fun.

My sons are precious to me and I have tried incredibly hard to strike the right balance between work and home life while being acutely aware that I haven't always got it right.

Wherever I am in the world, I never get Sunday night blues. I suppose it's because I've never worked at any one thing long enough to start hating it.

Do I think I'm under-educated? Academically, absolutely. I never took any exams, no O- or A-levels.
