Favourite Colour?

Green... though saying that, my tastes vary with the wind so it could be pink tomorrow.

Favourite Book?

Book? My journal probably. I've been keeping it for 15 years and it holds a lot of memories, secrets and things that without it, may well have been forgotten

Favourite Film?

Better Late Than Never starring David Niven and Dame Maggie Smith. Oh, and Mary Poppins although don't watch it with me because I sing along to every word!

Who's your favourite actor?

Gary Oldman and Ed Norton - are you going to ask my favourite actress? It would be Dame Judi Dench, we share birthdays and I think she is just marvellousse!!

Do you have any children?

Yes, Ophelia and Myles.

What do you enjoy doing?

I love being a Mum, life is busy, but we put together time at the top of the list - I drew a treasure map yesterday and hid it in the sandpit then we all searched for treasure, great fun! Alongside that, I am still driven by my other passions in life which are pretty much music based be it playing or writing - so I still do that when I can and I am a big Theatre lover so seeing a show is always a treat!

What's your idea of a perfect weekend?

Sleeping, eating, sun shining, smiling faces, coffee on tap, breakfast in bed, no telephone or email - and no to-do list!

When are you most happy?

Oh gosh, the happiest day, the most wonderful day of my life was the day my first baby was born, I couldn't believe the ecstasy I felt (amongst the excruciating pain as I lay on the floor!) Generally though I'm a pretty cheery person, it takes a lot to ruin my day so I'd say I'm most happy when all is right with the world!... well, my world anyway.

Do you believe in love at first sight?

I don't know, love comes in all kinds of shapes and sizes and has infinite levels to be travelled through - but I do think you can get a pretty good gut feeling at first sight yes.

What's the scariest thing you've ever done?

Nothing like a bungy jump for me - but selling all my belongings and moving to Holland was a pretty big move - particularly as I moved in with a family who would only speak to me in Dutch. It ended up being a wonderful few years though and it is there that I met my husband - so it's all good in the end!

What's been your silliest moment at QVC?

You're joking - just the one? I threw an egg at Charlie once thinking it was hardboiled - it wasn't, and it smashed on the light behind him!

What 3 things would you take with you to a desert island?

Pen, paper, and a decent-sized mug... I'm assuming there is coffee there??
