I met someone who said they had the amniocentesis test because she wouldn't want a child with Down's Syndrome because they might not be able to walk. Where did that come from?! I really feel the medical profession scares people unnecessarily. People say 'I couldn't handle that' when they hear about a child with Down's Syndrome. Handle what? All children are different in their own way.Yes it's changed the course of my family but that's about as far as it goes. He is such a happy child Show less «

[on co-star Renée Zellweger] We got on very well. We were in touch for a bit but we were quite honest about it - she's a massive movie star in LA and I was pregnant with Ollie on the second film.

[on Smack the Pony (1999)]I work now with women 10 or 15 years younger who all grew up watching it. As a teenage girl it wouldn't occur to you now that women aren't funny. It's a definite career choice and there are loads more girls. There really weren't any then. Show less «

[on working in America] What attracts me about over there is that TV drama and TV comedy is the best in the world, but it seems like a very brutalising process. Every spring there are these planes full of British actors - it's like sardine-tins full of British hope - and they all go and sit on beaches and think it's fantastic for a couple of weeks and then get fantastically depressed and go on juice diets and come back two stone lighter and talking nonsense.

[on the rumored 2012 shoot for Bridget Jones's Baby (2016)]: It was due to shoot in August, then I was told it was delayed till September, then I was told it was delayed till October and I was having a baby at the end of October, so I was nervous, and then they said don't worry it's starting in November and I was like still, for me that was worse because either I'm going to be 9 months pregnant, or I'm just going to be fat. Either of those are bad, and then it was postponed till January, and then we had a call saying it was postponed indefinitely. Show less «
