what is your earliest memory?
My earliest memory is from when I was about three, my Mum was running a bath and I was leaning over watching the water run in and I fell in...fully clothed.

what was your first ever job?
I used to work in a beach hut type shop called Ringstead Bay Kiosk near Weymouth, with my best friend where we spent our days taking ourselves off for walks along the coast to Lulworth, and eating ice cream on the beach. Good times!

what is your most embarrassing moment?
It’s hard to pick just one as I embarrass myself quite a lot on a daily basis. Falling over is a favourite; my latest was quite an impressive drop and roll manoeuvre at The Showman’s Show.

do you have any hidden talents?
Some might say that my karaoke skills are a hidden talent...others a delusion! I am also quite good at fashioning fancy dress outfits for all occasions, my latest being a zombie cheerleader for Halloween!

what crazy activities do you dream of trying someday?
I would love to do a skydive having recently been inspired by a family friend who has just done one at the age of 70, proving that it is never too late to do anything.

who would you cast to play you in a film?
I would play myself and also sing the accompanying movie song!

where did you grow up?
I grew up in the beautiful seaside town of Weymouth, the land of fancy dress.

where did you go on your last holiday?
Dublin to visit family. I happened to time it that I was there during the Guinness 250 event which consumed the whole city and was amazing fun.

if you could bring something extinct back to life what would you choose?
The only things that I can think of that have been extinct are dodos and dinosaurs so it would have to be those.

summer or winter?
I’m going to put a vote in for winter which I think is generally the less preferred answer. Because I burn really easily in the summer so don’t have to worry about that in the winter, plus I love snuggling up in lots of layers and having cosy nights in.
