Rachael Stirling: They're the best friends in the world. Having brothers - I love that. They don't take any rubbish and they beat you up if you've been misbehaving.
Rachael Stirling: I must have been nineteen when I took myself off to the Himalayas on my own. I was there for about a month, I had no problems. My parents were very worried, but my elder brothers, Willy and Ludo, were like, 'Naah, she'll be fine'.
Rachael Stirling: I wear it like a banner. I'm so proud that I got myself a degree and that I can prove that I'm not a thick actress.
Rachael Stirling: I didn't go to balls. Okay, I went to one, called the Northern Meeting. But no one filled in my dance card. No dashing white sergeant whisked me off my feet. I was a big, big lass, you see. I didn't start to feel remotely attractive until I was twenty-one. ( on being a teenager)
Rachael Stirling: What was I like as a kid? A complete nightmare, I'm sure. Energetic, always riding my pony and swimming in rivers - and pretty self-contained. Well, there weren't any kids living next door. ( on her childhood in Scotland)
