Francesca Annis

I'm an actress, not a pinup.

I've never been too afraid of what other people have said, especially when I was younger, but I suppose that was the arrogance of youth.

However successful you are, there is no substitute for a close relationship. We all need them.

The X Games have done night and day for snowboarding and action sports.

I'm sensitive and get easily upset and insulted.

The thing about Paris, it's a great city for wandering around and buying shoes and nursing a cafe au lait for hours on end and pretending you're Baudelaire. But it's not a city where you can work.
