I'm one of those pesky Brits.

The majority of women in America look like me.

You are as safe with me as you would be in the Bank of England.

For a number of years in England nobody had any idea what I looked like.

I guess they often cast me as the bad guy, because I'm not, er, conventional looking. I look sort of violent. I'm the odd one out, the outsider.

People look at me, they know I've appeared in costume dramas and they automatically assume I must be a Tory, I must be a certain type of person.

I don't look like most women in the industry.

British men are peacocks. You see a lot more style on the streets here than you see anywhere else, on every level.

I've been lucky-my looks haven't put me into one category. I don't look like a blue blood. I don't look like a criminal. I don't look like anything.
