“They're always such alive females. And also, all those love stories - no man in Austen has ever fallen in love with a female heroine because she's pretty or beautiful or has long, blonde hair. They fall in love with them because of who they are, because of their vibrancy and their intelligence and if only we were teaching that a bit more in schools.” IfsMenLongStoriesSchoolBeautifulFallBitsAliveTeachingHairFemaleFalling In LoveLove StoryFallenBlondeHeroinesAustenBlonde HairVibrancyLong Blonde Hair Author:Anna Maxwell Martin
“I was shocked by the reaction I got for Bleak House. It was very intensive but one of the best jobs of my life.

But I didn't realise how stylish it was and how much people would love it.” PeoplePlayCharacterJobsHouseGrowsChanceReactionsRealisingShockedBleakBest JobStylishBleak House Author:Anna Maxwell Martin
