in my early 30s, I would say.

Boundaries are something that I didn't grow up with.

And that was a kind of a beautiful thing and a terrible thing all at the same time.

And I've learned, I think maybe now that we are, that mental health is more of a discussion in life, you know, people are having therapy a lot more and being honest about that.

And therapy for me has always been a massive thing.

And boundaries is the first thing that I learned about in therapy.

So part of who I am will always be that I forget the boundaries.

But it's something I really, really try to every day practice, having my own boundaries and not worrying about upsetting people when you create those boundaries.

They really did sort of spot that early on that I didn't have favourites as such, but I was very bad at playing the host in that way of being completely kind of impartial.

Being at the helm of a show like that with lovely Danny, part of the reason why they chose us is probably because we are personable and, you know,

But yeah, I really did have to kind of learn that it's a game and there is lots of money involved and people take it very, very seriously.

Always.

It fascinates me because I grew up... I've always been in a very unusual position with class.

A journalist once described me as classless.

And at first I sort of went, oh, what do you mean by that?

But then what she meant was...

She said, what I mean by that is that you can't really kind of put you in any of them because you're relatable and personable to every kind of class.

And I think I grew up in a very mixed way like that.

Even though my parents were who they were and we were privileged in a lot of ways and we had a big, beautiful house and we went on nice holidays.

We didn't go to private school.
