Interview for Talkback TV
What is/was your most defining moment/formative experience?
Going to Australia to live and work. It wasn't the first time I had travelled on my own and I have travelled a lot since but I had been planning on going with friends who pulled out of going with a week's notice. I was terrified of going so far on my own but the fact that I did it and survived I believe gave me the self belief to do many more adventurous things.
Tell us a little known fact about yourself?
My Godfather is Matthew Corbett (sooty man)
and I once wrote to "Jim'll Fix it"
Most ashamed of throwing "dogpoo" snowballs at my neighbour.
Most proud of setting up my own theatre Company.
What in your life are you most proud and most ashamed of?
Have you ever done/achieved anything remarkable?
I overcame a life threatening childhood illness, which should
have left me brain damaged and went on to graduate from
Cambridge University.
What were your childhood aspirations?
I have always been desperate to be a screen actress but I asked "Jim'll Fix It" to be an air hostess for the day.
Who are YOU & what makes you unique?
I am a committed, focused but friendly person eager to put others at their ease and see the silver lining behind every cloud. I am unique because there aren't many of us optimists out there and I am the only one I know who can cross all of her fingers on top of each other.
