In every new job I got to... the first couple of days I think I'm going to be fired, I really do. - Gillian Anderson
In 1996, she was chosen as the world's sexiest woman by FHM magazine's readers; this Christmas she will be bald and on fire as Miss Havisham in the BBC's adaptation of Great Expectations. So what made her take this role? Anderson bristles: "That's not really a serious question, is it? The real question is, 'How the fuck did I end up as the world's sexiest woman in 1996?' – not why would I do Great Expectations. Any actor would want to do Great Expectations. I never set out to be the world's sexiest woman." - Gillian Anderson
I think, that only 5 per cent of actors are working at any one time. My father gave me a lecture at one point when I was younger and told me that I shouldn't be an actress because I should probably get a real job, and that I should go into - what was it back then; computers were really young? - it was word processing. - Gillian Anderson
Recalling her amazing awards success, "I think I've always had trouble in my life with feeling the importance of the moment, and I think that had certainly come into play at the time" - Gillian Anderson.
