I would love to have been around in the Keystone Studios days.

TV feels quite constipated, and the thing I find particularly difficult is the branding of the channels where it's not 'Is it a good script?' but 'Is it a BBC2 script?'

When I got pregnant with my first child I gained nearly 5st. I did a bit of pretending: "I'm just really small, so I just put on a lot of weight when I'm pregnant." That is true, but I also ate a lot of cake.

I'm feeling incredibly Botox-tempted as my face collapses around my shoulders.

I'm sorry to say I'm very lizard-like. My skin is dry, so covering my face in greasy antioxidants is a better alternative.

If you get 10,000 guys to put their ideal woman into a computer, it still comes out looking like Angelina Jolie.

I've got spider veins all over my legs, so I wear opaque tights all winter. All sorts of colours.
