I've always taken risks and bought property well. As journalism wasn't particularly well paid, buying homes and selling them for profit improved my income.

Teachers are the worst. Just shameless about kicking off their rivals.

I have been asked to lend people money - I now only ever give whatever amount is comfortable without thinking it will come back, otherwise when you see that person wearing a new coat or going on holiday you think but yes, where is my money?

I've had a lot of dates, but I don't think there's been anyone that special or important.

I never wanted to run a production company. I didn't want to convert my life into running a business.... so I always resisted it and kept things simple.

My accountant regularly asks to take me to lunch. I always say I can't afford it.

I like one nice man because he gets three tickets for the cinema so we've got somewhere to put our coats. He passes the test. I've been quite surprised because I really didn't expect to be wined and dined, and it's quite nice.
