Having children is fab. They keep me young and make me get up in the morning.

I used to do bell ringing in Benenden church. It was really good fun, actually. My best friend's dad was the local vicar, and so it was expected as her best friend that I would go to church every Sunday with her.

I like reading, I like boring things, and yet I think people for ages had this image of me that I was on the tube with a chainsaw looking for any likely candidate.

What could be funnier than a fat person trying to run a marathon?

When you get to know someone, you find there's something nasty in their woodshed.

I have friends who vote Tory, and I'm appalled, but that's not to say they're not great people in so many other ways.

Television provokes strong opinions, and sometimes we try a bit too hard to appeal to everyone.
