Getting a role in 'Harry Potter' was like winning the lottery. But no one deserves an acting job.
From Jessie Cave
People suit their star sign. If someone is annoying me over and over, and I know they're a Sagittarius, say, I'm more likely to forgive them. It comes down to my need for structure as a way of finding my bearings with people.
I can understand the dilemma of growing up in a bubble, and then not knowing what to do when unemployment beckons and reality bursts in.
Children who have been in work for a long time suddenly get a thud down to earth once the cuteness fades, hips widen, voices drop and jawlines strengthen.
Having done film, TV and theatre, the nicest final bit of the jigsaw is to do live comedy, because you can talk to the audience. It feels really natural to be able to laugh with them, but at the same time still be within the framework of a play.
I grew up with 'Roseanne'; I kind of adore her and stuff like' Home Improvement', really traditional American stuff.
When I'm not working in a professional capacity, I'm writing, and when I'm at home, it's a way of having contact with people or communicating.
You can tell a person's morale from their Twitter feed. I like that; it's so honest. And I like being able to follow people who I respect and admire, and the possibility of them seeing my comment about them.
I don't enjoy doing stand-up. I see it as being like exercise: I feel good about it after I've done it.
I'm obsessed with books. When a good book hits me, it's all I can think about and all I can do.
