I'd always used humour as a weapon, as a protection. But being able to make people laugh is a way of not getting in too deep; it's a quick, transient fix. Michelle Gomez deepfixhumour Change image and share on social

I've always been a gurner. I tried to reel it in. You know there was a period when I thought I was going to be a really serious actress, but the gurning... I can't get in control of it. It just runs away with me. Michelle Gomez actresscontrolgurn share on social
I always say: 'If I'm lucky enough to be given the opportunity to work again, that's it, I'm being wheeled on, sitting on a sofa, and someone's going to feed me grapes, and I'm not getting up.' Michelle Gomez feedgrapelucky Change image and share on social
Jack wasn't my type at all. I thought he was too young and too posh, and I told him that. Plus, I couldn't deal with his dodgy bowl-cut. But he wore me down. Michelle Gomez bowlcutdeal Change image and share on social
I'm always slightly worried if I do a film and we're filming it in Luxembourg. I know it's going to go straight DVD. Michelle Gomez dvdfilmluxembourg Change image and share on social
I have no real ambition or strategy. If this was all to finish, it's totally fine. There's a lot more to do out there than put on silly frocks and shout for a living. I could always go back to, 'Would you like soup with that?' Michelle Gomez ambitionbackfine share on social
I used to say Edinburgh was a beautiful actress with no talent. I thought it was just like a shortbread tin. I think that's because I did six Festivals in a row there, and I never saw the real Edinburgh, just a lot of deeply annoying Cambridge Footlights kids wanting to be actresses.

I don't think of myself as an actress. I still think I'm fannying around in my mum's front room. Michelle Gomez actressfannyingfront Change image and share on social
I feel so Scottish when I go abroad, and I'm so proud of it, but for me, it's not a political statement - I just happen to be Scottish. Michelle Gomez abroadfeelhappen Change image and share on social
