How do you fold a fitted sheet? Asking for a friend...

I’m thinking performance art.

Ooh, ooh, but what if Captain grew up to become a captain? Then he’d be Captain Captain, which would be great!

I liked it better when people got confused on Twitter because ‘Storm Desmond’ was trending, and figured that was his name. The T at the end of Saint doesn’t go with West - you have to sort of stop and start again when you say Saint West - whereas Storm Desmond West would just be awesome. If I ever meet him I’m totally

Having once watched an American turning his nose up at amazing authentic Italian pizza in Florence, I’m not so sure about whose pizza perceptions are problematic here...

If ever I get knocked up with the single-lady sperm-donor baby I’m trying for, I’m so, so tempted to give it ‘Snow’ as a last name because I’m a terrible human being.

If you think anyone who conceived via IVF after significant fertility problems hasn’t had multiple scans before announcing their pregnancy to the world, think again.

I volunteer for a nonprofit that makes donated wedding dresses into funeral gowns for stillborn/premature babies.

In my teens, I went up into the loft for something once - a process of opening a hatch, pulling down an extendable ladder, and then turning on the light when I got up there. At which point, I realised the loft was buzzing. Because there was a large wasps nest in it. I was completely terrified of wasps, having once

What does marriage have to do with anything?

Well, James Corden appears to be drinking a juice box...

Mostly subcutaneously into your stomach - when I bruised (which I didn’t always), they’d be about the size of a fingerprint. Some people then have to do intramuscular progesterone shots, which are more round the back of your upper thigh, I believe.

I’ve done it only telling one person (and that was only because the clinic literally wouldn’t let me leave on my own after my egg retrieval because of the sedation), but then, I’m single. I think concealing it from someone I lived with would be... difficult. Maybe not totally impossible, but there are drugs you have

The British comedian Mark Thomas did a show a few years ago called ‘The People’s Manifesto’ where audience members proposed new policies/laws they thought would benefit the country. One of those was that models should be selected at random from the electoral register, like being called up for jury service. I rather

Which, fine, but doesn’t resolve the ushers’ issue across the whole theatre. Unless the Barbican hire Mr Fantastic and Mrs Incredible!

The Barbican is laid out in such a way that actually getting to people (especially in the centre of the circle/upper circle/gallery) would be bloody difficult - it’s just one long row of seats with no central aisle or room to get past people.

I sat in stage seating for Martin Freeman’s Richard III and didn’t get any sense of crazy audience behaviour (other than my immediate neighbour being a small girl who was desperately hoping that Amanda Abbington would be in the audience, but she shut up when the play started, and seemed to enjoy it). I can definitely

I think a lot of that was exaggerated, or at any rate it wasn’t constant. I saw Coriolanus and the worst thing that happened, audience-behaviour wise, was an elderly lady very obviously falling asleep in the front row...

The Barbican is actually pretty well laid out with respect to sightlines, and the gallery is actually slightly closer to the stage than the upper circle is (it sort of looms), so most seats give a decent view of the stage. And they did quite a lot of £10 tickets, so there were some affordable options.

Jump on a train from Florence and go to Lucca. It’s this amazingly chilled-out, atmospheric walled town. It was my absolute favourite place in Italy. It only takes an hour and a half or so to get there and its really cheap to catch the train.
