Penelope Keith

“I'm a jobbing actress. I take what's going.”

“Comedy is much harder to do than drama. It's a very serious business.”

“I've never been a pushy person. I'm not a 'luvvie'.”

“I think the great thing about being an actor is that you can get to be a lot of people.”

“I have a great fondness for the countryside. I’m a country girl at heart.”

“Of course, one is a little apprehensive about taking on a new series. It's a bit like a first-night in the theatre - you've no idea if it's going to be a success or not.”

“I am absolutely thrilled and astonished and feel this is not for me but for all the people I have ever worked with.”

“You have to have a sense of humour to get through life.”

“I've no axe to grind. I'm not a politician. I'm a jobbing actress.”
