I Find It Very Difficult To Do

I Am Just Surprised To Be Doing Anything At My Age Actually. When You Think Of Where I Am Now And Where I've Come From, I Am Very Pleased And Very Grateful To Be Standing Up And Delivering Julian's Great Lines.

I'd Done "gosford Park," A Film That Julian Fellowes Had Written That Robert Altman Directed.

I Think Everybody Who Was In It Thought They Were All Going To Be Eartha Kitt Or Be Big Stars. That Didn't Happen, But It Was A Wake-up Call To Have One's First Professional Job On Broadway, I Must Say.

I Find It Very Difficult To Do Anything On My Own Now Because People Recognize Me. This Has Never Happened To Me Before Because I Haven't Really Done Television Before. But I Suppose If You're In People's Rooms All The Time, I Don't Know - I Was Thinking The Other Night With People Like Dicaprio And, You Know, Those Big Stars And Cate Blanchett, And You Just Think How Did They Exist? It's So Difficult. And I Think Now It's Very Intrusive Because Of These Cellphones, You Know, With Cameras.

Alan Rickman Was Such A Terrific Actor, And That Was Such A Terrific Character That He Played. And It Was A Joy To Be With Him. We Used To Laugh Together Because We Ran Out Of Reaction Shots. They Were Always - When Everything Had Been Done And The Children Were Finished, They Would Turn The Camera Around And We'd Have To Do Various Reaction Shots Of Amazement Or Sadness And Things. We Used To Say We'd Got To About Number 200-and-something And We'd Run Out Of Knowing What To Do When The Camera Came Around On Us. But He Was A Joy.
