For the first part of my career, I did what I was told, and I wasn't getting anywhere. I'd get in such a state when I was asked to do something, and it didn't feel right, and I'd end up feeling that I wasn't very good.

My father fought in the war, and then he was posted all 'round the world with his job. So I didn't know him very well when I was young.

I'm quite surprised I ever got married in the first place.

I have notebooks all over the place. I write little stories for my cabaret.

When I was growing up, my dad and I would go hunting and camping every weekend. Like everyone in my family, he is an amazing cook, and I've tried to learn a lot from all of them.

I love to cook. I love having friends over and family. I am definitely a feeder - I feed everybody. I am jumping around the kitchen like a crazy woman.

We are absolutely clear: when these unaccompanied minors have a family link in the United Kingdom, then they must go to the United Kingdom. And they must go quickly and in an efficient fashion.

Your parents would not be happy if you came home and said you wanted to grow up to be a chef or a rock star.
