Your roots, your family, your friends all become so much more important to you as you get older, especially if you are a wandering minstrel like me. Amanda Donohoe familyfriendimportant Change image and share on social
My father worked for the Foreign Office, so he was away a lot of the time. We were a very volatile family. There was a lot of love and a lot of conflict. The conflict kicked in mostly during my adolescence. Amanda Donohoe adolescenceconflictfamily share on social
My preferred environment is by the sea or somewhere rural. I don't want to be in a city, I don't want to visit New York and I don't want to go shopping. Amanda Donohoe cityenvironmentprefer Change image and share on social
I watch an awful lot of old Hollywood movies - I'll devour anything with Bette Davis or Joan Crawford. My absolute favourite is 'Sunset Boulevard' starring Gloria Swanson. Amanda Donohoe absoluteawfulbette Change image and share on social

I don't like posh hotels. I like small, eclectic hotels, and luxury for me would mean really good company with good food in a really funky, beautiful house in the middle of a field where someone came and serviced the place for us. Amanda Donohoe beautifulcompanyeclectic share on social
It's either feast or famine, and that's the way it's been for as long as I can remember. I've spent my whole career thinking I'll never work again. Every actor lives with that insecurity. You just have to negotiate the rapids as they come. Amanda Donohoe actorcareerfamine share on social
