'Sweeney Todd' is my favorite Sondheim musical.

Coming eyeball to eyeball with a hummingbird on my terrace is as exciting to me as any celebrity I've met as a result of 'Downton Abbey.'

I've not cooked Christmas dinner since 1982.

I go dog-walking a lot.

I quite like L.A.

I don't do freeways.

I'm an ambassador for Medical Detection dogs.

I guess that is my favorite thing – to make people laugh and also to maybe engage them emotionally and touch them somehow in telling the story.

I can do basics, but I’m not a proper cook. I can do a roast. I can stick a chicken in the oven with vegetables.

I mean, I’ve done musicals, but it’s not my best thing.
