The Welsh... I mean, what are they for?

We mothers of grown-up daughters tend to view them with a mixture of love, exasperation, irritation and awe.

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.

I do have a rule that very few meetings are worth more than ten minutes.

I like to look put together without trying too hard. I don't want to look as if God's made another rainbow - I prefer muted, autumnal colours, like most fading redheads.

I come from a family of traders; my grandmother and my mother were very good at making money.

I am dating, but it is hard to find someone quick enough and funny enough. I am quite demanding.
