I've not stopped going on public transport. I love going on it.
From Jessica Raine
I'm certainly not squeamish at all. The countryside makes you very aware of birth and death.
I have always appreciated vintage clothing, but after working on 'Call the Midwife' for six months, I love moving away from vintage in my day-to-day wear.
I think my dream would be to move into film, purely because there's a definite beginning, middle and end to a project. I struggle a bit with such a big series that's going all the time.
It's amazing what it opens up in women when you tell them you've just played a midwife.
You know that book 'Quiet: the Power of Introverts in a World That Can't Stop Talking', by Susan Cain? That's like my manifesto. The older I get, the more I think I could be a hermit.
I have a really adaptable face, but when I am just being me, people always think I am younger than I am.
My first acting experience was a non-speaking role as a robot. My costume was a cardboard box covered in tinfoil, but I was so shy I refused to go on stage.
I always knew that the only thing I wanted to do was act, but it took me a long time to say it out loud to anyone, let alone myself. I am surprised by how dogged I have been in wanting to make a living as a respected actress.
I would like to explore comedy, I want to do more theatre, and I definitely want a future in film.
