Sophie Cookson’s 5 most popular quotes

  • Sometimes relationships are short, sometimes long, sometimes they’re very deep and intense, and drama school is a hell of a learning curve.
  • Whenever I’ve worn trousers or a suit, it always makes me feel sexy but effortless and confident.
  • I think, for me, the main thing is feeling comfortable.
  • I was really sporty and loved singing. I started off doing musical theater. I left university to go to drama school. So I was a bit of a black sheep.
