One time I got so drunk in the Soho theatre in London that I fell asleep in the disabled toilet for two hours. People still call the toilet Rosie’s Bedroom.
I constantly forget people’s names when they have literally just told me.
Also my most triumphant: 2017 at the Royal Court. Julie Hesmondhalgh reads my psychologist’s report over two hours. Every excruciating intimate word of it. Extreme verbatim theatre. One night only.
Wearing 90s ripped-at-the-crotch jeans at Rada during an unarmed combat session and showing everyone more than they bargained for.
David Attenborough, because he introduced me to the world.
That we’re all going to hell in a handcart and Trump is driving.
A sense of wonder.
Being married for 17 years and having two amazing children.
Instead of saying, “I tripped up”, you have to use the words, “I had a fall.”
I cry if one of the kids says something profound without knowing it; I cry at adverts; I cry at Strictly Come Dancing.
