Holliday Grainger

I was so tiny when my parents split up that I can't remember them ever being together. That was never an issue, as I guess I never went through the trauma of them splitting up.

Long scenes of emotion are quite difficult - you've got to build up to them and make sure you're in the right emotional space.

I auditioned for a musical, and I can't sing. It was a kid's film musical, not a stage show, so I thought I could get away with it.

A film is a petrified fountain of thought.

I think for any actor, for the roles they deeply, truly want? They always have to audition for them.

I have a naturally camp sensibility and a camp sense of humour. I love the icons that gay people love.
