I did an O-level in domestic science when I was at school, but on the day of the practical exam, it was a cookery nightmare.

I believe anything can happen.

I always admire people who have passion.

I can do basics, but I'm not a proper cook. I can do a roast. I can stick a chicken in the oven with vegetables.

Ive not cooked Christmas dinner since 1982.

Ive been to the White House and had Hilary Clinton push through the crowd to come and meet me. Chelsea Clinton, too.

The first meal my husband ever made me was a chicken curry. I have never tasted anything so delicious in my life.
