Burning Question

Past Burning Questions

What's your favourite cheese?
- I'm boring when it comes to cheese - a nice bit of cheddar on toast or mozzarella on a pizza pie does me fine.
What's your favourite thing on TV at the moment?
- Strictly Come Dancing
What's the punchline to your favourite joke?
- You come in here, giving it all that (make chatting hands). Doesn't come across well in print, but believe me, it's terribly funny.
Who do you want to win The X Factor?
- Diana or Laura
What would be the theme tune to your life?
- Forget Myself by Elbow
If a TV show was made about your life, who would play you?
- Claudia Winkleman - not cos she looks anything like me, just because I LOVE her!
What was/will be your first autumn/winter purchase?
- Will have to start buying Christmas and birthday prezzies for my daughter. Her birthday's just over a week after Christmas, should really have considered how many prezzies I'd have to buy in a short space of time before conceiving!
What has been your favourite moment of Big Brother 9?
- The Irish dancing task. The tasks this year have been the best yet, huzzah!
Apart from your house and your car, What's the most expensive thing you've ever bought?
- Probably my daughter's pram. Babies are expensive!
In view of Madonna's landmark birthday, what would you like to be doing at 50?
- I'd like to be retired with 3 children and enjoying the autumn of my life. Boring but true!
