I go to bed with as much makeup on as I can so I look cooler in my dreams.
I never take my makeup off.
My husband thinks I'm insane.
My mum raised me in a home without mirrors. She's a staunch feminist and wanted us to know that what we look like is the least interesting thing about us.
I'm confident without make-up on and I only wear it for work.
I grew up not worrying about my looks.
I used to spend hours reading the Sunday papers, but then I had 900 children so I don't any more.
I don't like ads: I'm too susceptible. I find myself in the supermarket buying Ronseal, and I don't even have a shed.
I loved 'Life is Beautiful' and action films are great, like 'Die Hard.' My favourite is the mob film - 'Goodfellas,' 'The Godfather,' 'Once Upon a Time In America,' anything with Robert De Niro in it.
Ads are cool.
Jane Austen is one of my all-time favourites.
I love PG Wodehouse.
I can't stand people who say they've got 'Africa fatigue.'
On 'Richard And Judy' I dressed up as an orange for Fruit Awareness Week.
I'd like my children to remember all the cuddles and bedtimes, and that I worshipped them unconditionally.
I don't work very hard. I dye myself orange and I read out loud in the months from September to December when 'Strictly' is on.
I never go to parties. I never go to premieres. You can't play that game, because it's short-lived and you want a life.
When I want to feel especially grateful, I think about the early days dressing up as an orange for Fruit Awareness Week.
I watch 'Question Time' religiously.
I like cookery shows much more than my husband, so I put them on the minute he goes away.
