What was it like filming Robin Hood?
Really weird! It was my first filming experience and it was with bloody Ridley Scott! I wasn’t with Russell Crowe thank God; I think I might have crumbled at that. I did it with Eileen Atkins which was probably even more scary. But it was brilliant. What has been the highlight of your day today? Well d’you know what, I was on the tube – it’s not a highlight, it’s quite a dark highlight but that’s kind of where the play is – and on the front page of the Metro was the boys from Manchester planning a Columbine kind of shooting and they just got busted. I let out an ‘Oh my God’ on the tube, because it was just, today of all days, opening with this play, really weird. Because it’s so plausible, what happens in this play, and it’s horrible.
