Growing up with strong female role models is always inspiring, and growing up, that was something I aspired to play. ”

I'm not sure why it's taken so long, but I think people are relating to strong female leads. ”

I think it's great that you have inspirational female roles, that it's not just the pretty girl on the arm of a man. ”

I knew exactly what I wanted to do since I could remember. As a kid, if my friends came round after school for dinner, I'd put on shows; I'd write plays and charge the parents £1.50 for a ticket for sweetie money. ”

Sci-fi fans are so interested in your character and so attached to the world that you've created. ”

I remember, for my birthday once, we all dressed up as Spice Girls. I was Scary. ”

My dad left his psychology hat at the door and put his dad hat on when he came into the house. It's amazing having my dad have that awesome job. My mother was a model back in the day. I've seen the pictures. My mother's beautiful. ”

The idea of science fiction, mythology, and creating a world is my favourite thing. I do love the reality of dramas and playing that, but being able to start from scratch, to completely build the character and this world, I love that. ”

I love fantasy; I love imagination - that's the inner child in me. ”

Stunts are my favourite - I love it: the feeling, the adrenaline when all the cameras are rolling and everyone is watching and crowd round. ”
