The joy I get from work is just huge.
My favourite season is autumn, and I love walking through woods.
I initially decided to speak about my anorexia and bulimia, partly out of a selfish motivation. I felt I had been scrutinised for my weight and thought, 'At least judge and criticise me on the facts.' There was a freedom with that. Now it's out there, and I just get on with life. I'm at peace with things.
I don't have my life mapped out. I am happy to see where it goes, and then, hopefully, I won't be disappointed.
Horror is my favorite genre, but there have been a few horror movies that have properly scared me and that I don't jump back in to watch over and over.
I have come a long way and learnt a lot. I read this quote about a year ago: 'Happiness must not be pursued; it must ensue.' It's made me realise that just being married again or something like that won't make me happy; the happiness ensues from how we live our lives.
I have been very lucky - all the jobs I've done have been with lovely people. In fact, I've been on many where I've just laughed uncontrollably the whole time.
I struggle because I love food and sometimes I can't stop eating.
I personally love the U.S. 'Office.' I know some of it by heart.
You know a movie is good when things that are unreal have gotten into your head, and now your day is not the same.
Sometimes if you do a multi-camera comedy, often there's rules, like, 'We've got to have three main laughs per page.'
When you are open about your things, people feel more able to talk to you. I think that's a nice thing, because people get help and don't feel so isolated.
I'm the oldest of four children, and when I was young, I used to get the blackboard out and make my brothers and sisters sit in front of me while I taught class. They all thought I wanted to be a teacher, but I didn't. I was impersonating my teachers.
We're always trying to say things are right or wrong, bad or good. If we just chilled out, maybe things wouldn't be so hard.
I love shutting my front door and being at home with just my dog and me. That's when I'm happiest.
I am somebody who feels that we're all fabulous, every human being, and I think when we do things that aren't so fabulous, we are disconnected from who we really are.
Before Ricky Gervais came along, I was a jobbing actress and perfectly content if a little unfulfilled: I'd just done an advert for Imodium. That year, 1999, I auditioned for four parts. 'The Office' was the only one I got. What its success gave me was freedom of choice.
The whole thing with so many people empathising with 'The Office' has made me aware of how people aren't doing jobs they love, aren't living a life they love. Which I find devastating.
I was fortunate to have had a lively, happy childhood, but somewhere along the way I convinced myself I wasn't wanted anywhere or by anyone if I wasn't thin.
For me, when I go to bed at night, I am happy that I haven't hurt someone. And if I think I have, I will rectify it. I now refuse to give someone permission to make me feel bad about myself. They can't make me feel bad about myself if I don't allow it.
I'm annoyingly optimistic.
If I'm slimmer, I feel better about myself, but I don't lose weight for anybody else or for a magazine.
I don't think it could ever be possible to enjoy a job more than 'The Office.'
I'd been the girl, aged about 10, who'd twirl around her bedroom each night in the hope of waking up the following morning, having been transformed into Wonder Woman.
I work much better in sunshine. It's drizzle and grayness that I don't like.
I have some lovely friends and an amazing family, and I feel very lucky with that.
I met some lifelong friends doing 'The Archers.'
I came to the realisation, rather late in the day, that whatever your body's meant to be, it will figure itself out.
I have friends who don't even know I'm diabetic. I don't hide it, but it's the last thing I need to tell someone. I take my insulin with every meal and have kidney drugs twice a day, but that is, like, habit. That's how I deal with it.
All the superhero stuff, somewhere deep down, I think it nudges us into remembering that, really, we're all fabulous if you let go of fear.
I have never fancied or been attracted to a man on first meeting him.
I'll watch something like 'Paranormal Activity,' 'The Shining,' or 'Rosemary's Baby,' and I love them, but then I watch 'The People Under the Stairs' or 'Candyman,' and they freak me out. It's weird because I don't where the line is. I don't know what that means. I don't know what I should watch and what I shouldn't.
I've been so lucky in all my jobs. I just, you know, when you hear nightmare stories of other jobs - which I'm sure are true, but I've been lucky and never experienced them.
