I'm surrounded by it. I have so many lovely people around me who are supportive, gentle, kind and considerate. I'm so grateful for every day that I'm on the planet and that continues to be so.
The first movie I appeared in was Carry On Cowboy, though not as an actor. I was just riding horses.

Not that I have any interest in saying goodbye to Rocky. I absolutely adore being involved and a part of something that is really a phenomenon.

I absolutely adore working in the realms of fantasy.
I am 58 and it's difficult for people to gauge my age.
I do like to be creative and I'm very lucky that I've been given different areas in which I'm able to do that - whether it be film or television or theatre or whatever. I'm also still into music and recording.

I paid my dues at drama school and worked backstage in every Theatre in London.
I would have loved to have been in The Stand. I would also loved to have been in The Mask.
I'm not driven by money and I'm not driven by career.
I'm one of those people who never really joined the grown-ups.
I've been cushioned against having to work, with Rocky's continual bounty.
I've never been driven by fame or money or anything like that. It's never been part of my psyche.
I've never wanted to play bank managers and real people particularly.
It is difficult to go on the next night after you receive a sandbagging.
