What was your first job and were you any good at it?

Hand. No, but I have improved...

Oooh, it has to be Bill Gates.

My colleagues won't know this about me but...

I tackle every single questionnaire with the utmost seriousness.

What is your favourite snack?

Fishfinger gherkin and Wotsits sandwich.

What has been your career high point to date?

Flying to the US - 36,000ft!

Has 2013 been good, bad or ugly?

It's been good. Why? Because it was neither bad nor ugly.

What do you say when asked at a party what you do for a living?

Who are you again?

If I wasn't working in the channel I would probably be... a gangsta rap artist, dench man, blood (sucking teeth sounds).

Keeping the French out.
