Who do I like? I am a big fan of French and Saunders - not that that they are particularly stand-up I have to say, but I think they have been great for women and they are of themselves just incredibly funny whether they are male or female.

There are lots of people who believe that caricature of me the tabloids created, so they think they don't like me.

Privatisation splits hospital services into increasingly small packages.

They say revenge is a dish best eaten cold, but for most people, by the time it's ready to eat, they just don't fancy it any more.

It wasn't a conscious effort to have kids later. It was just the way life goes.

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

I like men. They are hugely entertaining, but they have a lot of shortcomings and you just have to bear those in mind.
