“I wanted to wear fingerless gloves at my confirmation. I think I alway...” — Suranne Jones Quote

I wanted to wear fingerless gloves at my confirmation. I think I always wanted to be different and felt very stifled at school.

I get asked to do panel shows, and reality stuff, like getting in a cage with a shark. I got asked to do a 'Strictly' special, but it's not my bag. If I'm being interviewed, that's OK, but anything else fills me with dread.

I'm a magpie - I collect accessories and trinkets. But I don't have expensive tastes.

Fame doesn't get to me. I lead quite a quiet life on the whole - I will go to an awards ceremony if the show I'm in, or I, am nominated because I think it's important to say, 'Thank you.'

I like challenges - and I also like to be different.

I think with the whole new Internet media, I'm not necessarily Internet savvy, but I just feel that the way that art in general will be presented to the public is going to be different.

My dad was a huge help. He told me that it's going to be different going to North America. It's a different game, a different style of hockey. He really helped me in that regard. My whole family was really supportive.

I do think I'm country, but your definition of that word might be different from my definition. In my opinion, country music, the sound of country, has always evolved. But the one thing that has not changed is the story element. And I think country songs are truthful songs about life written by country people.
