Being an actor does make you aware of your age.
From Natasha Little
Getting older doesn't bother me. When I was 30, I thought I should have achieved more, but you get more comfortable and think it's time to stop putting pressure on yourself.
I love acting. It's what I do, not what I am.
I love rehearsing; it's the best part of the job.
By the time I was 10, I had lived in 11 different countries.
I'm not cool at all. I'm the least cool person I know.
I have this sense of humour which is about as sophisticated as a seven-year-old schoolboy. I get very overexcited and silly.
I'm guilty of it myself, sort of thinking, 'Classic novels: snoozeville.' But there is a huge amount of wonderful material.
Period drama is such a huge umbrella term: it seems to cover everything from Claudius to something from the 1920s.
'Pride And Prejudice' takes place in a similar period to 'Vanity Fair,' and yet there's a huge difference between Jane Austen and Thackeray.
