I'm mad keen on recycling because I'm worried about the next generation and where all this waste we're producing is going. It has to stop. I wash out my plastic containers and recycle envelopes, everything I possibly can. Cherie Lunghi containerenvelopegeneration share on social
I just want a quiet life. I think that's what everybody says when they get older. Cherie Lunghi lifeoldquiet Change image and share on social
I enjoy art, architecture, museums, churches and temples; anything that gives me insight into the history and soul of the place I'm in. I can also be a beach bum - I like to laze in the shade of a palm tree with a good book or float in a warm sea at sundown. Cherie Lunghi architectureartbeach share on social
I wear my lines like a soldier wears his medals. They've been earned. They've been fought for - so there's no reason to be ashamed of them. In your 50s, you just care less about that sort of thing. I think it's to do with what's inside you. You can't obsess about the outside. Cherie Lunghi 50sashamedcare share on social
I have done so many love scenes in the past that I have learned how to pull off a sexy smoulder on the dance floor. Cherie Lunghi dancefloorlearn Change image and share on social
I had my appendix removed in my 20s. I was in the middle of a play with Helen Mirren at the Royal Court Theatre, a fabulous career break. Then two weeks in I began suffering the most horrendous pain and had to pull out. Sadly, by the time I'd recovered, the show's run had ended. Cherie Lunghi 20sappendixbegin share on social
I have had big relationships. Three times in my life I have felt a special connection, but people talk about looking for love as if it's just like walking into a Starbucks and buying a coffee when you feel like it. It's rare, that special connection. Cherie Lunghi bigbuycoffee share on social
There is so much pressure to be thin, and you constantly compare yourself to others. But confidence is something that comes with age and experience - it has to be earned along the way. Cherie Lunghi agecompareconfidence Change image and share on social
I want to play women my own age, rather than artificially 'de-age' myself so that I can play women who are younger or much younger than I am. I want to grow into those kind of more mature parts, not try and keep them at bay for as long as I possibly can. Cherie Lunghi ageartificiallybay share on social
I'd like to break some new ground, maybe in TV presenting, rather than just be an actress. Cherie Lunghi actressbreakgrind Change image and share on social
