In actual fact, I doubled 'Twelfth Night' and 'The Avengers'. I was going backwards and forwards to Stratford. I played matinees Wednesday, matinee and evenings Saturdays, and the other days of the week, I was filming in Elstree.
It was an extremely overdramatic play called 'Wild Decembers'. It was all about the Brontes, and they all, one after the other, died of tuberculosis. I remember taking every opportunity to cough over other people's lines.
It tends to be overlooked that many people are indirectly affected by thoughtless and cruel journalism.
I cry all the time. Remembrance Day in particular. In fact, anything to do with veterans makes me sob.
I think I'm a mousepad. I don't want to be a mousepad, but I'm a mousepad. I'm also a screen saver, thank you very much. It's weird.
It's a very powerful medium now, and should be celebrated as such, because we have the greatest television in the world.
