Q&A
What would the public make of you if you went on Come Dine With Me?
"They'd think I was quite stressy and controlling. I need to be organised, so I'd come across as a bit of a nightmare. I'd cook Beef Wellington."
Who'd play you in a film of your life?
"I'll say Jennifer Garner. I would love to look like her."
