The actress also touched upon her initial reaction to the show when it first aired in 1998.

"What was lovely is that we produced an entire first season without being on the air so we had no idea, first of all no point of reference, it was a voice that was new and it was slightly subversive and it had a point of view that was sort of singular so we couldn't look at anything else and say if that had success then we might."

She added: "So we produced an entire season and then it was a sort of slow burn. We had to cultivate the female audience and to change the viewing habits."

And for that ladies, and HBO, we salute you.
