Laughter
|
Nov 07, 2020

Like
|

Like most women, my weight goes up and down.

Good
|
Nov 07, 2020

At my worst, I was a size 22, and at that size, you can't go down the high street and buy yourself things that make you feel good. Your shopping options are limited in a way they aren't when you are a size 12.

God
|
Nov 07, 2020

My earliest memory is my parents forgetting my fourth birthday. My dad looked up from reading the paper and went, 'Oh my God!' So we went out, and I chose a red scooter.

Nov 07, 2020

The secret to my success is to work seven days a week. It's as disappointing an answer as the one about how to lose weight. Eat less. Sleep less. Very boring.

Involve
|
Nov 07, 2020

I will try anything that doesn't involve a leotard.

People
|
Nov 07, 2020

Cheryl Cole is one of the few incredibly famous people who still seems to say what they think. I really like that; plus, I do fancy her quite a bit.

Old
|
Nov 07, 2020

For three months, when I was 23 years old, I worked as a clerk at Wandsworth Sewer.

Nov 07, 2020

I'd love to be a joiner or a wood turner.

I Wish
|
Nov 07, 2020

I wish I was fitter.

Nov 07, 2020

I was once very unpleasantly groped while I was broadcasting by a famous individual who shall remain nameless. When I told the staff afterwards what had happened, everybody thought it was amusing. There was a shrugged shoulder approach to the whole thing.

Looking
|
Nov 07, 2020

I have to say, I have to tell you that my kids had a most marvelous time having two moms. When my daughter was at university, she got flu. And both mums rushed to be with her. And we were both looking after her and making soup and tidying up. And one of her friends came in and went, 'Two mums? Not fair.'

Feel
|
Nov 07, 2020

When we laugh out loud and we realize that there are others who think the same as us, then we feel better.

Long
|
Nov 07, 2020

There was a really long period of time when, if the newspapers ever referred to me, even if I was talking about, I don't know, cake making, they would put 'lesbian Sandi Toksvig.'

Nov 07, 2020

You have to stand for the things that you believe in. You have to stay strong inside.

Life
|
Nov 07, 2020

The number one thing in my whole life is my children, and I want to be there for them.

Diet
|
Nov 07, 2020

I had tried every diet out there - I would lose weight for a bit, then put it back on again.

Interested

Nov 07, 2020

I was never interested in how I look.

He
|
Nov 07, 2020

My dad died of a massive heart attack when he was 59, as he didn't look after himself.

Love
|
Nov 07, 2020

You want a kitchen put in, I'm your girl. I'm very handy, and I love a practical challenge. I fit all the stereotypes of the lesbian with power tools.

Patience
|
Nov 07, 2020

I haven't got the patience for small talk, although I once saw a woman standing on her own in the corner, and I realised it was Monica Lewinsky, and I had the nicest evening with her - she was charming.

Happy
|
Nov 07, 2020

Mostly, I'm totally happy in my own space at home with the door closed with my family and friends.

Person
|
Nov 07, 2020

I've met Theresa May, and I think she's a good person. I'm not someone who goes, 'Ooooh, boooo, the Tories,' or 'Ooooh, boo' anyone, actually. You sit down and have a sensible conversation, and she is really, really capable of having a sensible conversation.

Boxing
|
Nov 07, 2020

I'm absolutely obsessed with boxing.

Political
|
Nov 07, 2020

Oh my God, don't ever start a political party. It's exhausting.

Me
|
Nov 07, 2020

Noel Fielding is one of the nicest guys in show business. The first time I met him, I felt like I had met a rather wayward cousin whose take on the world made me laugh.

I Am
|
Nov 07, 2020

I am passionate about higher education and am hugely impressed by Portsmouth's mission to encourage students from every walk of life to excel.

Live
|
Nov 07, 2020

I can't live without Radio 4. It's worth the entire licence fee. I'm an obsessive listener; I get up, and Radio 4 goes on, but it goes off when 'Thought for the Day' starts, as that's a step too far.

Love
|
Nov 07, 2020

I'm slightly obsessed with women's history, so I'd love to talk to Emily Dickinson or Louisa May Alcott.

Certain Age
|
Nov 07, 2020

I'm trying to get my kids - in particular, my step-daughter Mary, who's 12 - to recommend music to me. You reach a certain age and realise you haven't kept up, but I don't want to fall behind.

Dench
|
Nov 07, 2020

I've downloaded the BBC's 'Cranford' with Judi Dench because I like a bit of bonnet acting, and I can turn it on and off without worrying about whether I can follow what's happening.

Climb
|
Nov 07, 2020

Don't climb into a fridge. That's my advice.

Fat
|
Nov 07, 2020

Us Danes have amazing pastries, but we're not a fat nation.

Light
|
Nov 07, 2020

You can go anywhere in the world, and people's faces light up when they put delicious food in their mouths.

Food
|
Nov 07, 2020

Food is an international language, an expression of love.

Done
|
Nov 07, 2020

I'm political in the sense that there's much to be done, but I'm apolitical in the sense that I don't think there's a party that represents anything I believe in.

Hair
|
Nov 07, 2020

Although I'm sure she's completely charming and delightful, I'm not sure if Kate Middleton might be the best role model. This is a person who has got where she is by marriage, a person whose weight, clothing, hair we worry about - we don't worry about what she's thinking.

People
|
Nov 07, 2020

When people say, 'There aren't enough women on panel shows,' the answer is to make the host a woman.

Despise
|
Nov 07, 2020

I haven't the energy to despise anyone.

Hospital
|
Nov 07, 2020

I've had a surprising number of near-death experiences: I was nearly blown up by a landmine in Sudan; I was stranded on the Zambezi river at night; I was bucked off a rodeo horse in Arizona and had to be airlifted to hospital; and, worst of all, I once ate a Pot Noodle.

Life
|
Nov 07, 2020

My life won't have full quality until we achieve equality for all.

Media
|
Nov 07, 2020

Social media, to me, has got out of hand. Why can't we all be nice to each other?

Hatred
|
Nov 07, 2020

I dislike hatred, offence, unkindness.

Plastic
|
Nov 07, 2020

I get in a temper with inanimate objects. I can't bear plastic. I do get in a complete rage with something that's been shrink-wrapped.

Nov 07, 2020

There are panel shows that struggle to get women on, and that's because the women feel marginalised and stupid and in the edit are often seen just laughing at the boys and not saying anything at all even though I know for a fact in the recording they were clever. I'm not shy at speaking up, but even I, on those shows, am silenced.

Care
|
Nov 07, 2020

I think kids are in your temporary care, and that they probably arrive with pretty much the personalities they're going to have. I grew up in a perfectly traditional family and turned out how I did. I'm not sure there's much that the family can do except lots of love and lots of care and lots of chances for them to develop the best they can.

Brain
|
Nov 07, 2020

What I think is if the world is in some difficulty - about climate change, about economics - then we had better make sure that 100 per cent of every brain available on the planet is working at full pelt to try to sort these things out.

Goodness
|
Nov 07, 2020

Is raising boys different from raising girls? Oh my goodness, yes! It's a different species, and I love them for that.

Great
|
Nov 07, 2020

With my daughters, it didn't matter how much it was not my thing, we went through two truly horrible pink phases. I bought an awful lot of Barbie rubbish, and it was a great day when I was allowed to send Barbie's house to the skip. That was one of the best days of my life.

Always
|
Nov 07, 2020

I've always liked being able to go around incognito in Copenhagen.

Never
|
Nov 07, 2020

The truth is I have never been any good at sport, OK?

History
|
Nov 07, 2020

The fact is, there is not now, nor has there ever been in the whole of history, a single country in the world where women have equality with men.

Family
|
Nov 07, 2020

I was born gay, OK? I've always known. I don't think my family were the least bit surprised.

Nov 07, 2020

I don't think secrets are a good thing. I think they are a cancer of the soul. So I decided to come out.

Life
|
Nov 07, 2020

When my three children were little, I took them to Rome. On our way to our destination, we went to see the Colosseum and returned to the car to find everything had been stolen. Trying to buy everything for a week, including clothing for three small, very tired children, was a low point in my life.

Nov 07, 2020

I cannot lie on the beach or by a swimming pool. I think I'm too Nordic to like a lot of relentless sun.

Nov 07, 2020

My wife and I drove across America following the Oregon Trail, which the pioneers once passed along.

Life
|
Nov 07, 2020

Sitting on a plastic chair at night listening to the sea lapping below while sipping a cold beer is about as good as life gets.

Nov 07, 2020

Women are not allowed to be polymaths; we're only allowed to do single maths.

Me
|
Nov 07, 2020

Do you know there were two pilots made for 'Have I Got News For You' before the series started two decades ago: one hosted by Angus Deayton and one hosted by me. But I was told that they couldn't have a woman in charge of the news.

Narcissism
|
Nov 07, 2020

I'm quite a shy person, and I dislike narcissism intensely.

Hope
|
Nov 07, 2020

I hope I don't have an ego.

Doing
|
Nov 07, 2020

If you play-act for a living, it's better not to carry on doing it when you get home.

Be Happy
|
Nov 07, 2020

My ambition is to stop showing off. I'd love to be a tweedy academic. I'd be happy living in a croft. I like making jam. So why am I a semi-public figure?

Food
|
Nov 07, 2020

One of my life's watchwords is 'hyggelig.' It's an untranslatable Danish term for getting together with friends and family and sitting around in a cosy atmosphere with nice food and wine and candles.

Old
|
Nov 07, 2020

I love 'Teach Yourself' books. I bought an old weaving loom and had no time for classes, but one 'Teach Yourself' later, and my bobbin is flying.

Me
|
Nov 07, 2020

I certainly wouldn't want to be a Mini Me of any of the people whose footsteps I've followed in.
