"Matthew got very annoyed with me for doing that."
"The celebrities were all just sitting there!"
The actor, who played heartbroken Karen in the 2003 festive classic, has revealed she doesn’t have the best memories of making the film.
Twenty years after the Christmas classic was released, Emma Thompson has revealed her co-star’s hilarious response to seeing the finished version.
The pair shared the screen in the 1995 big-screen adaptation of the Jane Austin novel.
"Any sense of being a lovable or worthy person had gone completely.”
"Every time I was there I was just chewing the furniture when I wasn’t on camera."
The Oscar winner's take on Roald Dahl's classic villain has been hailed as a scene-stealer in this new musical.
"No, you can’t just let it flow. There’s a camera there, and a crew... it’s not a comfortable situation."
The Oscar winner is seen in action as the abusive headteacher for the first time in the newly-released teaser.
