I sometimes wonder what it would have been like if I'd got 'Downton Abbey' when I was 22.
I met Bette Midler, who I absolutely love.
I get invited to a lot more glamorous parties since I've been in 'Downton Abbey,' which has made me much more fashion conscious.
I don't have any rules when it comes to clothes. I'll wear anything if it fits and looks good.
At the drop of a hat, people will say there are no roles for women after 40. It's there with a bunch of other rules I'm not interested in.
As an actor, you never know where the work's going to come, so you have to be flexible about it.
I've been to the White House and had Hilary Clinton push through the crowd to come and meet me. Chelsea Clinton, too.
I inherited my weight problem from my mum. She was always on diets. If there was a box of chocolates in the house, she'd eat half a chocolate, then put the other half back. She loved me, but she did encourage me to diet in my teens.
When you look back, I think things are as they are meant to be. Timing is very important.
I guess that is my favorite thing - to make people laugh and also to maybe engage them emotionally and touch them somehow in telling the story.
