WONDERLAND: Hi Sophie! What is the oldest article of clothing you own?<\/strong><\/p>\n

SOPHIE KENNEDY-CLARK: Hell, I could have a stall or five at Portobello market with the amount of vintage clothing that I have collected over the years from around the globe! Alas, the piece I cherish the most is actually a tartan flannel shirt of my mother’s from the ’70s. She always smiles when she sees me in it and that usually prompts a story or two from days gone by when she wore it. I like that.<\/p>\n

What is the worst job you\u2019ve had in a non-acting context?<\/strong><\/p>\n

My father is always threatening to get me working in his fish factory, which gives me enough drive to keep this acting malarky afloat. I once worked in a vintage shop which was pretty disastorous – I got WAY too attached to certain items, was constantly playing dress up and my shop floor manner had little to be desired when met with the rudeness of some customers.\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n

What favourite song this week ?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Dream a little dream by Mam Cass.<\/p>\n

If you had to pick one way to travel for the rest of your life, and you were unable to use any other form of travel, what\u2019d you pick?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Trains, a big ol’ fashioned steam train…and I would like to drive it too please. Hold on – does this bind me to one continent? If so I change my answer to magic train for international purposes – you understand.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n

What is your favourite movie?<\/strong><\/p>\n

It would be a toss up between Easy Rider, Annie Hall, Carry on up the Kyber and Happy Gilmore.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n

What is the last dream you had?<\/strong><\/p>\n

I have a dastardly recurring nightmare. I’m standing in front of a stair case and I cannot for the life of me figure out how to climb them. I just can’t remember how to climb stairs I’VE FORGOTTEN and it’s so simple!?! I stare at them frustrated and anxious. Sometimes I’m being chased and in the dream this happens and it’s horrible. Or at least it could be but I usually wake up at the point of capture. I know…I’m a therapist’s field day.<\/p>\n

Last great film you saw in theatres that blew you away?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Another Earth. I saw it a while ago and I’ve seen other films since but that one REALLY blew me away…oh my God the end….stop reading this interview and go and watch it immediately.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n

\u00a0What do you think is the most overrated book or film of all time?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Of all time….err that’s a big ask…people rate things for their own reasons so I’m not bold enough to pass judgment.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n

What is your worst type of food?<\/strong><\/p>\n

I will eat nothing on a plate where there are mushrooms lurking – and mushrooms really lurk. Whats worse is I’m veggie – and folk love to throw a handful of the little rotters into veggie dishes.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n

What is the worst tourist activity you\u2019ve ever experienced?<\/strong><\/p>\n

I don’t like being on boats – specifically at sea so any sea boating activities go down like a lead balloon in my book. Having said that I wasn’t too averse to the odd Gondola this year at the Venice Film Festival.<\/p>\n
