“The corsets I wore in The Railway Children are still in my undies draw...” — Dinah Sheridan Quote

The corsets I wore in The Railway Children are still in my undies drawer, a prized relic of my favourite film.

Well, I suppose that, in a sense, every screen role is a favourite with me.

It was one of the marvellous feelings of the film, having the music going in your head while doing scenes.

I actually enjoy wearing the corsets required in some period films.

What a thrill it was to play opposite Maurice Evans in this brilliant, dazzling musical, based on the life of two of the greatest personalities in stage history.

I seem to disappoint people a bit. They want the full regalia - but I don't walk around in a corset the whole time.

I'm taller than most actresses, so most corsets tend to be too short in the body.

Sales of corsets doubled between 1948 and 1958, possibly as part of the process of putting women back into the box, as they gave up the jobs and freedoms that came during wartime.

If there was a time period I could be in, costume-wise, I'd like to be in something with corsets. Like the 1910s, that kind of thing.

You have to stand up super-straight in those corsets and pull your shoulders back.
