Who is your hero?
All the people who only get appreciated in a crisis: soldiers, police, doctors, nurses etc.
What does success mean to you?
A happy, secure family.
What song will always make you want to dance?
I love to listen to 80s music. I love Fly, the Eddie the Eagle soundtrack produced by Gary Barlow. I had so much fun watching this album being put together. I also like Elton John, Queen, Macklemore & Ryan Lewis, Prince, David Bowie and Adele.
What film will always make you shed a tear?
Still Alice, The Fault In Our Stars and Kramer vs Kramer.
If you could only wear one outfit for the rest of your life, what would it be?
A soft, oversized cashmere sweater, jeans and flat sandals.
Last meal on earth?
Toasted-white bread with Marmite and PG Tips [tea] which my husband introduced me to.
What is your fondest childhood memory?
Eating a greasy burger and an ice-cold Fanta on a jetty in Mallorca and then diving into the beautiful ocean.
