"Actors are the best and worst of people. They're like kids. When they're good, they're very very good. When they're bad they're very very naughty." - Kenneth Branagh.

The word "naughty" does not seem like a serious one. It is often used for children, and in fact, in the quote above, Branagh's joke depends on his audience understanding that the word is applied to children. The fact that he is able to intensify it by using the word "very" twice implies that being naughty is not especially serious. It might, therefore, be a surprise to know that the word used to mean "evil" or "wicked" and be taken very seriously indeed.
