Jodie Comer

A movie that makes me cry every time is 'Billy Elliot.' That scene where he's dancing in the hall, and his dad walks in. And the first time his dad can see how amazing he is dancing, but he's so conflicted with kind of his own feelings towards it. Oh, it's so emotional.

I grew up watching Keira Knightley films nonstop, and I always admired period dramas and just everything that goes into it.

With acting, you have to just tell the truth in each moment.

I'd always wanted to do costume drama, but period dramas often become very wooden. Just because they're born in the 1400s, all of a sudden people start losing their sense of humour or their personalities.

You have to be confident enough to pick yourself up and go to 30 meetings and be told no every time and not take that to heart.

I came off Snapchat. I was done with it... I think I spent too much time on it.

I feel like when you perform in a period drama, it's so easy to transform yourself into someone else because the costumes are so different.

I don't know if it's the way I've been brought up or if it's because I spend so much time away that I appreciate being at home so much.

I always find with dramas that the more that's left to the imagination of the audience, the better.

I feel, in drama, you don't need to be fed everything. Even though sometimes when you watch, you want to know what happened and you want to see it, I feel like sometimes it's so much stronger to see the effects that those actions have had.

I feel particularly passionate about being a part of 'Rillington Place' because I've never had a job where I've felt so much responsibility and I've had to handle something with so much delicacy, because this story and these people were real.
