| Quotes: |
When I left Downton Abbey (2010), it hadn't yet taken off and become the phenomenon that it is, to this day. That all happened after I left. But, it was fabulous to be a part of it and to be a part of the cast. We had an absolute ball!
<br />
<hr>
I definitely think it opened doors for me and what was so fantastic about Downton Abbey (2010) being showed over in the States, was that it helped get me noticed.
<br />
<hr>
I certainly relate to "Ygritte", in the fact that she is so strong and also ruthless, as well, and I feel that especially within Game of Thrones (2011), I think that as a show, it is one of the frontrunners for showing dominant female characters and making sure that men answer to women, rather than the other way around.
<br />
<hr>
For the first time in my life I tried whale. It was very chewy and quite fatty. My friend had had whale before, so I knew it would be quite blubbery. It was delicious. I loved it. It was smoked, so it had a lovely kind of tangy taste to it. We had it a couple of nights. I was won over. It was very yummy.
<br />
<hr>
I had the most fantastic time filming Downton Abbey (2010). |
