I'm the co-chair of the PTA at my kids' school, Ashmount Primary, in north Islington, London.

The real me now may not be thin but she's got the cake and, if she likes, can eat it too.

As an actress and comedienne, I'm a huge fan of he theatre and the Tricycle in Kilburn is my favourite in London. I dragged my kids to a performance of 'Twelfth Night' there, where they handed out pizza. Who knew that all it takes to get children interested in Shakespeare is a snack?

I don't think I've got the expertise with which to nit-pick, and I freely admit that my motivation to support charities has been emotional, rather than as a result of being particularly well informed as to how the money is used.

Both Plockton and the Isle of Muck in north-west Scotland are incredibly beautiful. Sadly, Plockton has been discovered by tourists because it's where they shot Hamish Macbeth.

I dont understand boys - just ask my husband.

Sending your child off to school for the first time in their life is terrifying.
