Math was a two-part exam and I once didn't go for the second part. I knew I'd done so badly on the first it was hopeless. I re-took it about four or five times. I think I eventually got it by getting the top GCSE grade.

Terribly sad news about Stuart Cable, such a lovely, warm, funny, talented man.

There are some people who only know me for cornflakes ads, and that's fine. I have a charmed life.

I don't think any of my kids would have a good word to say about me. I think they deny that they even know me. At school, they pretend they are Anton du Beke's kids.

I think it's almost an indulgence to focus on the dark side of things. And as you get older, you want to focus on the positive.

I'm a very, very handsome man, and have had to come to terms with it... um, do I like the way I look? In the right light, and with a following wind.
