Definitely sunset - sunrise is a constant challenge.

5. What's in your desk drawers?

A load of old rubbish! Probably shouldn’t admit that!

6. Share some great advice you've been given.

My mum once told me it’s sometimes better to just let it go ... which I always bear in mind when I’m choosing my battles!

7. Can you recommend a local lunch or coffee spot?

The Salt Yard, Goodge St - the courgette flowers are to die for (does this entitle me to a discount?!)

Daniel Craig’s Biography (don’t judge me).

I don’t really do box sets ... now, if you had asked for a favourite film ... Bond ... James Bond.

I can do the moonwalk (honestly) - spent years perfecting it as a teenager/diehard Michael Jackson fan.
