Stockings are tricky for girls - you worry about them falling down all night and the idea that you dress up at 7pm so that your boyfriend can get excited about six hours later is just too much effort.

I make a good roast chicken.

Weddings happen once. That's the point. They're a bluster of confetti and hope all wrapped up in sticky wedding cake and four-year-old girls in big dresses with massive bows.

I really like Jon Snow in quite an unhealthy way - he's got a jaunty tie and a fast brain.

There's no doubt a bit of chicken in a creamy mushroom sauce with a side order of garlic mash will put a smile on your face.

Things I am allergic to: people who believe in star signs and think nothing of starting a conversation with: 'Hi, my name's Lucy. I'm a Sagittarius;' rodents (apart from miniature hamsters, which are not in fact rodents but small, breathing, brown balls of cotton wool); and people who go to the gym.

My kids are the offspring of people who are doing reasonably well and live in the centre of London and the chances are they're going to turn out ghastly anyway. Who's to say they shouldn't have a walk-in wardrobe and possibly a stylist from the age of four?

I always have eyeliner in the house. There might be no bread, we might be out of milk, but there's always eyeliner.

I don't think I'd get employed if I did pastel eye and a side parting. People would say: 'Get someone else for the job!'

I am box-set girl; I buy into those big American series like 'The Sopranos' and 'Heroes.'

The reason why those female celebrities are always in filthy moods is not because they're being hounded by men with massive cameras or because Ridley Scott cancelled their film. They just want to get their hands on a cheeseburger.

I am allergic to fancy dress. This is actual fact.

If I could grow my fringe down to my shoulders to cover my entire face and occasionally peer out to answer questions I would. It's my beauty security blanket.

Yes, of course I love little Sarah Jessica Parker. I love the fact that when she accepts awards, she thanks everyone she's ever met and inanimate objects that have 'been kind to her.' And I love the fact that she hasn't had a flesh-coloured mole removed from her forehead (I'm not making it up; have a closer look next time she's on the screen).

There is no film on the face of this earth that is as blatant a girl's film as '27 Dresses.'

There's no fun in relationships. OK - that's not strictly true. I will agree that the first bit can be not totally unpleasant. There's the initial meeting and the heart quickening and the stomach-churning excitement of it all.

Sex and the City: The Movie' - a bit like the All Saints comeback, and the return of the Jammy Dodger, it feels a little staged and all wrong.

I was a sucker for glamorous women in shoulderpads eating fancy things like eggs benedict.

The only question a girl can ask herself when their husband chooses to see '27 Dresses' is this: What on earth has he done?

Forgetting stuff is just human, especially when other things are on our minds.
