"My proudest moment was when JK Rowling came over, hugged me and told me I was perfect for the part. For the creator of the character to believe I truly encapsulated what she was trying to achieve was better than anything anyone could have said. I was gobsmacked but absolutely thrilled at the same time."
Quote:
"I remember seeing Richard Harris and Robbie Coltrane and was completely overwhelmed - but now it's really normal. Every time we resume filming it's like a big family reunion."
Quote:
"There's no way I'd ever think above my station. Firstly my mum would knock me downagain but secondly it's just not a nice way to be.
"I've just been very lucky in getting to do what I do."
Quote:
"I really want to keep up acting but horses are my real passion. In fact, my ideal role would be in some kind of horsey film - that way I'd have the best of both worlds. If they ever made Shergar again I'd do anything to star in it.
"At home I've six horses and one foal and they're the first things I want to see when I get home - after my family of course."
