Towards sunset we had cleared down to the level of the 12th step, which was sufficient to expose a large part of the upper portion of a plastered and sealed doorway.
After clearing 9 metres of the descending passage, in about the middle of the afternoon, we came upon a second sealed doorway, which was almost the exact replica of the first.
Probably the only type of cosmetic surgery I'd consider is having my bust reduced. It's alright for my current role in 'The Marquise' because it's a costume drama, which means boned corsets and a bit of cleavage, but it's a drag otherwise.
Clemency is the noblest trait which can reveal a true monarch to the world.
An age which is incapable of poetry is incapable of any kind of literature except the cleverness of a decadence.
I use the Philip Kingsley range of shampoos, and they've got a great elasticiser, which is fantastic. I wrap my hair in cling film and put that on.

On 'Game of Thrones,' all of my closest friends are 30 upwards, which is quite strange.
The reality is the three gulf carriers - Emirates, Qatar and Etihad - are forces with which to be reckoned. Strategic investments by co-operative governments have given them large fleets and huge airports. They have created a flourishing environment while established carriers languish.
I've had my run-ins with department stores, like Harrods, which stopped selling fur coats, but I found some there with fur trim, which is just as disgusting. Foie gras production is appalling - there's no excuse for selling it.
I worked with the Coen brothers, which had been a dream of mine.
Mistaken identity, of course, has been the province of much postcolonial fiction. An important feature of this writing is the manner in which misrecognition has haunted all cognition.
I come from a country in which I experienced economic collapse.
The liquidation of colonialism is a trend of the times which no force can hold back.
The purest and most thoughtful minds are those which love colour the most.
Reading and writing are connected. I learned to read very early so I could read the comics, which I then started to draw.
