My only experience with American things is through movies.

For me, it's a matter of balance. Living inside your head and experiencing real things - both are important.

When you play a lead role, you're in pretty much every scene. It's incredibly tiring. You really have to disappear into the film because you have no time to do anything else. You are either awake and playing the character, or you are trying to catch up on sleep.

The best thing about being from Britain is that it's a melting pot of cultures, characters, and creativity. I couldn't imagine coming from anywhere else.

I'm a bit of a fashion magpie.

I'd really love to be a versatile, chameleon-like actress, stretching myself a bit.
