I Don't Think You Retire From Movies;

I Think What Is British About Me Is My Feelings And Awareness Of Others And Their Situations. English People Are Always Known To Be Well Mannered And Cold But We Are Not Cold - We Don't Interfere In Your Situation. If We Are Heartbroken, We Don't Scream In Your Face With Tears - We Go Home And Cry On Our Own.

For All My Education, Accomplishments, And So Called 'wisdom'... I Can't Fathom My Own Heart.

I Was A Repertory Actor, Which Meant That I Did A Play Every Week. I Was A Different Character Every Week; For A Year, I Was Doing 40 Or 50 Characters.

To Disappear Your Complete Self Into A Character Is Quite Difficult. I've Tried It 85 Times, And I've Succeeded Two Or Three Times.

Just Because I Have Made A Point Of Never Losing My Accent It Doesn't Mean I'm An Eel-and-pie Yob.
