Christina Hendricks 'hates' thinking about 'Mad Men' ending

Christina Hendricks "hates" to think about Mad Men ending.

The flame-haired actress - who plays Joan Holloway in the 60s-set TV show, which was recently renewed for a sixth season - claims the programme has "completely changed" her career and she doubts she will ever find a job she loves as much.

She said, "It's completely changed my career. Instead of people wondering who you are, you walk in and they say, 'I love your show'. It's a nice way to start an audition."

"I hate to think of it ever finishing. I have concerns about finding something I'm going to fall in love with as much."

However, Christina - who is married to actor Geoffrey Arend - is looking forward to other projects and spending some time with her husband.

She said, "I've got a couple of things lined up for the next break, and I hope to enjoy my home and husband."

Christina, 37, was "smitten" with Geoffrey when she first met him because of his sense of humour.

She told Britain's Glamour magazine, "It just became very obvious to me, I was smitten. He makes me laugh and he's my best friend and I would always rather be with him than not, so those are pretty good indications."
