I was surprised at your height.
That was the first thing you said to me.
But I think now, because I'm six foot tall, right?
Are you six foot?
Yeah, but my youngest daughter is six foot two.
Wow.
So I think her six foot two now is the same as six foot was in the 70s and 80s because we've all got a bit taller.
So if you like, from the get go, I was outside the norm and I got, had to get more comfortable with being outside the norm very early.
Did you love your height or was it?
Not initially.
No, not initially.
I didn't love my height.
Now I grew up and I talk about this in the show.
I grew up in a male dominated house.
I've no sisters.
I had three brothers.
My dad, my granddad lived with us.
My uncle Ben lived with us because he had a learning disability and they all gave me shit about my height, right?
Growing up.
She started to shrink at her older age, but I'd say at her height, she was about 5'10".
