Maybe, instead of paying so much in tax, the very rich could be incentivised to help their local community and young people who do not have a home.

The late 1990s were good to me. I was doing the Lottery, GMTV and I had a good contract with ITV. But I was working so hard, I never had time to celebrate. I never thought I was lucky.

People who earn reasonable amounts are being turned into the anti-Christ. I think 45 per cent tax is a colossal amount to take off somebody, and it is taking away the incentive to earn.

I have made six big home moves in my life and I have never lost money on one I have lived in.

If your fridge is full this Christmas, use nature's refrigerator - your car!

I am now at the age where I can withdraw a 25 per cent tax-free lump sum. I do not put in a set amount because my earnings are a moveable feast.

If you are a housewife, take pride in that.
