You have to capitalise on any success you have and keep doing what you do as well as you can. But how do you define success? In my book, it's to be playing those parts you saw your idols - Judi Dench, Maggie Smith, Helen Mirren, Vanessa Redgrave - playing when they were the age you are now.
I'd love to play Hamlet.
British independent television is exactly the same as independent cinema. Very low budget, interesting, cutting edge stuff.
