Star Sign: Capricorn/Aquarius (I'm on the cusp!)

Born: Guildford in Surrey

Favourite hoofed animal… a rather strange question but if I had to choose it would be a horse!




Who would play you in a movie of your life and why?  I'm not sure I've done enough to warrant a whole film, so ask me again in a few years.




Big night out or cosy night in? Cosy night in.

John Craven left me star struck.

What are your favourite TV shows? Fawlty Towers and Nighty Night.

Help! I’m stranded! And I can’t live without… tea and my car!

What would you do if you didn’t work here? I'd be a doctor or an airline pilot.

What drives you mad? Rudeness, people who can't drive properly, traffic jams, buses or trains which are late and technology when it stops working.

Me in three words… friendly, thoughtful and conscientious.

School nicknames: Green Flash, trainers, tyres...can you work out why?!

I’m sitting on the big black Mastermind chair and my specialist subject is… Fawlty Towers.

At weekends you mostly find me... watching TV, shopping or in my car going to see friends and family.

When I’m feeling peckish I reach for… toast.

I was so embarrassed when… I overslept and was two hours late for work! The breakfast presenter had to read the news until I arrived...oops!

Tonight Matthew I’m going to be… one of the Beatles (can't decide which one).

A few words to live by… be positive and treat others how you would like to be treated yourself.

Mostly you’ll find me wearing… a shirt and trousers if I'm working, jeans and a T-shirt if I'm not.

Who is your dream date? I think it would have to be Emma Bunton (Baby Spice) or Dido. They both seem really down to earth.

Tell us something about you we wouldn’t expect. I'd like to say I'm an expert archer or a part-time bus driver...but I'm not.

What would you trade for three magic beans? Baked beans.

Have you heard the one about… I'm useless at telling jokes.

And finally, the words on your gravestone: fondly remembered.
