“There are lots of people in my life I just don't get the chance to see as much as I would like.”
“You can't go back to work unless you have a great support network, whatever that is. My mum and dad, sister, and husband are great.”
“Any aspirational job is tough because everyone wants to do it.”
“You should see the way I walk around on the way to the nursery. I look a state.”

“As an actress, weekends can be spent working, but my husband, Ryan, works regular hours as an analytics manager for L'Oreal.”
“The police who did our training said 'Happy Valley' is one of the only police programmes they can watch and not burst out laughing, saying, 'As if you'd do that.' They think it's really authentic.”

“The novelty of corsets and dresses and hats very soon wears off.”
“So many people say you have to remember to grab hold of your bride or groom and spend time with them. I think if we had done a traditional wedding, we would have been doing it for everyone else, but this was about the two of us.”
