We love Olivia Colman. Lots. And most especially in Broadchurch, where she plays tortured cop Ellie Miller.
Only the BAFTA award-winning actress is getting worried that she cries too much on TV – and that we might get sick of her.
She managed to speak to Vogue for a short while – at least long enough for an interview, anyway - presumably in between blowing her nose and wiping tears off the table.
“I have a sneaking suspicion that audiences have seen me crying a little bit too often in the past couple of years,” she blubbed.
“And if people get really fed up with me, then I won't get more work. And if I can't do what I love, then I will shrivel up and die.
“If something touches me, I cry. That's it. I'm a bit raw, a bit rubbish really. Often a director will say to me, "I don't think this is a scene where your character cries." And all I can say is, good luck with that!”
Wowser, that’s a tad dramatic, Olivia, though you’re a thespian and we’d expect no less.
If you’ve watched Broadchurch then you’ll know that it’s an emotional rollercoaster. If you’d stayed dry eyed during that then you’d have a heart of stone, Olivia.
Now have a tissue, dear. No, don’t cry again – we’re not saying you look like need one. Oh, there she goes again…
Here's another emotional person...
