My parents were hugely supportive like that. I was always the best - it's so embarrassing, isn't it? I was always the best at everything.

I turned down a lot of films.

After all my various relationships I find myself now home alone.

I have got a few misters interested but nobody special these days.

I was always going to be a dancer - I drifted into acting.

We all know now that people can look good for their age. It isn't so extraordinary, I don't know why people go on about it so much.

Fame and stardom sat very easily on Elizabeth Taylor's shoulders.

So many stars lose their way, and with success become more neurotic, not less so.

Everything is about class in England, whether it's upper, lower or middle. Why should that be?
