If Shakespeare was around today I would ask him out to dinner. The only thing I don't like about him is the way he did his hair.
From Michelle Dockery
In the early '20s, with the war over, there was a period of celebration, and you can see it in the fashion.
Laugh at yourself - a lot. My mum taught me not to take myself too seriously.
I had dance training from a very young age, 3 or 4... It taught me how to present myself, about preparation and working in an ensemble, and it's something that carries with me to this day.
I think so often you can come out of drama school and get thrown in the deep end.
Silk scarves are my thing. I tie them to my handbag or thread them through belt loops or wear them in my hair. Never round my neck, though.
I think the first time I realised 'Downton Abbey' was a hit was when I was sitting in a tea shop in New York and the couple next to me were talking about 'Downton Abbey,' and then they recognised me.
I regret not learning to drive when I was younger.
It is impossible to watch a 'Friends' episode too many times. Phoebe is my favourite character. I used to play her songs on the guitar when I was a teenager. 'Smelly Cat' is very easy. It's only about three chords.
For years, I was often afraid to speak up when I didn't fully understand a script. I'd tie myself in knots.
