I didn't really know anything about Romany culture going into this [Glue series]. The one thing that I liked the most about it is that it's so family based. They don't have mothers and fathers in the same way we do. They're really in a community, so parenting is shared between the community.
The Romany culture is not really in the media that much and Jack Thorne wanted to portray that.
Of course, you're always going to be biased but Submarine was amazing and I'm not surprised that people liked it.
I've done a lot of things for a very young audience so far, such as The Sarah Jane Adventures. I'm tiny and petite and I look very young, so I tend to attract those kinds of roles.
Richard [Ayoade] likes working with people that he knows. So, I already knew all of the crew and practically everyone and we all felt comfortable. It's nice to be able to go into somewhere where there's no pressure, and where people are supportive and believe in you.
Going forward, anything that Richard [Ayoade] asks me to do, I would be so honoured... even if it's sweeping the street because he's such a great person and a great friend.
I had a very short time on that film [The Possibilities Are Endless] and it was quite strange because the process was kind of like a documentary, which was different for me. The way everything was filmed was very casual.
I'm someone who is quite uncomfortable if something is different. I like doing things I'm used to in everyday life. So, I always try to push myself outside of that when looking for roles, otherwise I would never do anything different.
I get very nervous in un-trodden territory but it's important to keep doing it just to prove to myself that I can do it.
To work with Richard [Ayoade] is my favourite thing in the world. He is my favourite person. So, it was great for me to be involved in a project that was, again, so different and with such wonderful actors. Everyone from Submarine is in the film in one way or another, which helps because it really does feel like a family.
