Being a mother adds another emotional dimension, a feel for children that I didn't have before I had one. They were a pain before.

We have to take risks with art. If we don't, it all becomes a bit boring

There is this idea that appealing to youth is the only way forward. But that is no longer the case. Youth is not everything. Now we have all the baby-boomers in their 60s, like me, who are actively engaged in life - we're not retiring, we're not just being put out to grass once we hit 60.

There were all us baby boomers who had a grammar school education, started to learn, then went on the pill, the whole thing, and so there are today a lot more women writers, editors, producers, and so a lot more women's stories. God, the BBC's practically run by women.

Along the way I have been able to choose some themes which ask questions - not necessarily force a message on anyone, but at least invite the audience to question things: jury service, dignity in dying, Ireland - and not least because they force me to ask myself questions. Where do I stand?

I never wanted to become an actress because I'd read great literature or seen great Shakespeare. It was more just wanting to understand what the people were really like, why they said all the strange things they did.

I'm interested in politics, what's going on in the world, how people behave and how your life is often in the hands of other people.

When I think of the future, I think of doing my washing so I've something to wear tomorrow.

It's very strong after the birth. It's extraordinary. You can't watch anything to do with kids being harmed.
Julie Walters
Image
I'd love to be in another film, but they haven't asked me. I think it's a shame but the prospects of me doing another one now are remote. Please do campaign on my behalf.

Self worth is everything. Without it life is a misery.

Some people have a terrible stretch between family and work. It is a difficult thing to achieve.
Julie Walters
Image
I've never done so much bloody crying in my life. I was always moaning about how hard it was when we were shooting, how awful I felt.
Julie Walters
Image
I'd like to think there'll be too much of real life going on for me to want to do much acting.

I keep seeing myself in my daughter, and I see my mother in me and in her. Bloody hell.

It wasn't being an alcoholic - it was going wild. It happened when I got famous. It was like having my teens in my early thirties: blotting out your life, not having to think about anything.
