As soon as I saw the play I knew I wanted to play Flora. I fell for-it goes for the guts of an emotion but isn't at all sentimental.

I do still get the odd fan letter about The Good Life, clearly written by somebody aged 18, who says: Will you send a photograph? And I think: Maybe it's kinder not to. I'm deeply into my 50s now.
