8. Who was your favourite Dr Who?
Peter Davidson because he used to do Once Upon a Time.

9. What are your all time favourite TV shows and why?

To the French revolution so I could sing hits from Les Miserable and avoid the guillotine.

16. What do you have for breakfast?
Urgh, I hate breakfast and avoid it if at all possible.

17. What’s the answer to life, the universe and everything?
If I knew that do you think I'd be sitting in my pyjamas at 9 o'clock on a Thursday morning filling in this stuff while my son destroys my living room? I'll share the secret of happiness with you though, it's thus: Anything could happen in the next half hour.

Creme Eggs, no, anything with white chocolate in it, in fact, anything involving sugar and no raisins is fine, if you want to buy me anything.
