Biography
What was your first-ever job?
Dressing as a 6 foot high octopus handing out marketing literature for the Sealife Centre in Weymouth.
“What was your worst experience as a trainee?
A seat automatically flipping up behind me so when I had finished speaking to the District Judge I sat down on the floor after giving my submissions.
If a movie was being made about your life, which actor would play you and why?
Obviously Helen Mirren but I suspect it would more likely be Pauline Quirke.
