Maybe people don't see me as believable playing a person of today. I guess I'm just more realistic in a corset and funny hairstyles.
There is nothing conceptually better than rock 'n' roll. No group, be it Beatles, Dylan or Stones, have ever improved on Whole Lot of Shaking for my money. Or maybe I'm like our parents: that's my period and I dig it and I'll never leave it.
I'd love to do a period piece.
I'm something of a history buff. It's deliberate that a lot of my films have been period pieces.
I've never done a period piece. That's something I'd be really interested in doing.
I would like to do a period piece. I think that would be fun.
What you have to understand about period drama is that it's 'history light.'
With 'The Xpose,' the main challenge was to create timeless melodies. The thriller is set in the '60s, and we didn't want the songs to sound dated.
I'd love to do a costume drama movie. For no other reason, except that it sounds fun to me.
I really love period pieces.
The BBC is very good at period drama - world-famous for getting the details right.
Strangely, the thing I listen to 75% of the time, when I'm exercising with my headphones on is English Tudor/Elizabethan music, so music from about 1450 to the early 1600's.
With period dramas, it's very easy to get excited because I love to do them.
I mostly play old period songs, as they suit a ukulele more. I bought it when I saw the tribute concert to George Harrison. Joe Brown came on and sang 'I'll See You In My Dreams,' and there wasn't a dry eye in the house.
I've always wanted to do a period piece.
