“In the next few years I’d love to play a female version of Doctor Who. I know exactly how I would play her – she would be crafty in a clever kind of way.”

I would really love to do a musical, I don’t know in what capacity but something funny.

I am thinking about those things now. More so than all my friends – they’re a lot older than me, but they’re not even thinking about babies.

I’m happy in the UK. I absolutely love it and I’ve finally got a great group of friends. I’ve got a lovely little flat and my work’s here.

The whole size zero debate is disgusting. My sister, who’s 13, looks amazing – but she’s already worried about her figure.

I think Beyonce Knowles got a couple of million for a private show but I would be happy to turn it down.

Yeah, I fancy women big time… I check them out more than I check men out. Maybe I would want to sleep with a woman… Not Beyonce, although I like the look of her, I don’t think she’s that dirty.

I suppose that’s a lot to do with our current climate and financial messes. I certainly see that people seem to have to work harder with a lot less time.

They’re great films but I much prefer the smaller independent films, which are more thought provoking and experimental.

I was freakishly ambitious. I didn’t want to be a child. I wanted my own flat, to work and be a grown up.

I was very similar at 19. I wanted something to happen in life, I wanted a bit more. I wanted to find someone who could challenge my ideas. So I definitely tapped into that.

A musical film is my idea of heaven. You can pre-record, you don’t have to sing live. Singing live was the bit I hated the most. I never felt like a confident singer.

The more things you own, the more people you need to employ.

Weight doesn’t matter as long as you’re happy with yourself.

The best doctors give the least medicines

You’d have to be pretty hard-nosed not to feel some sympathy for the guy [Doctor Strange].

[Doctor Strange] gets scraped off the floor and then thrown right down to hell again and then slowly pulls himself back up.

I think it’s fair to say that, yeah, I’m playing Doctor Strange, I get there.

I’m aware of [Doctor Strange] place within the comic pantheon of it all, the Marvelverse, but I don’t email saying, “When are we doing next film?” I’m excited to see.

Doctor Strange is an origin story so there’s a certain room for me improving as well as the character improving.

I agree, the world would be a better place if doctors were less enthusiastic about adopting very new drugs.

My dad is a doctor, a professor of psychiatry, and my mum is a psychotherapist.
