People love dark stories because they take you to a place you think you don't want to go but really you do.

I love being a mum. It is the best. I always knew I would.

A lot of people have experienced a relationship betrayal, even if it was when they were 16 and with their first love.

I love Sian Brooke so much; she's hysterical.

You don't want to be single forever. But also, once you have your own life, your partner has to be someone very special because life is so busy. If that person isn't right for you, don't settle for second best.

Fame doesn't get to me. I lead quite a quiet life on the whole - I will go to an awards ceremony if the show I'm in, or I, am nominated because I think it's important to say, 'Thank you.'

Trust is an issue that is very personal to each individual. You want to feel love and trust and all those things that bind relationships together, with your partner, your friends, your relatives, or any loved ones.

I love St. Ives and Fowey. I have childhood memories of the Headland Hotel, where 'The Witches' was filmed, standing on the Fistral Beach. There's something about packing a bikini and Wellington boots - and I'm away.

I know that I am not a great beauty, and I know that I am a certain taste.

I like writing, and I enjoy the production part a lot, actually. It gives you longevity in a career, where you know sometimes you might not always have the time to do the parts you want to do.

It was a huge shock when my mum was diagnosed. She was 49 when she found a lump in one of her breasts and sensed something was wrong. At the time, we did a breast cancer campaign together. I still do a lot of charity runs.

It is a golden age of television, with Amazon, Sky, and Netflix. They give opportunities to people to develop their own projects together. So much stuff has to be made. There has to be more opportunity.
