What is your greatest fear?
Perfectionism that leads to procrastination.
What is the trait you most deplore in yourself?Oversharing my personal life, but here we are, oversharing!
What do you most deplore in others? Unbending opinions.
Describe yourself in three words
Analytical, extreme and playful.
What makes you unhappy?
Small talk – I don't know how to do it.
What do you most dislike about your appearance?
My 'fivehead'. I call it that instead of a forehead – it's so big!
Who would play you in the film of your life?
Gary Oldman has already asked: I think it will help his career.
What is your most unappealing habit?
Overanalysing.
What scares you about getting older?
That I didn't appreciate the smaller joys in life.
What did you want to be when you were growing up? An air traffic controller.
What is the worst thing anyone's said to you?
I don't think you could print it, it's so bad.

Watching Love is Blind.

What do you owe your parents?
A sense of humour and quiet ambition.
To whom would you most like to say sorry, and why?
My closest friend at uni – I sometimes retreat from life in quite an extreme way, without word. Back then, I didn't really understand what I was doing.
What does love feel like?
It's peace.
What was the best kiss of your life?
I was 17, with a Greek boy on a Greek island. We were watching the sun come up and we kissed for what felt like hours, and it was magical. I have since taken my current partner back to that island and asked if he could top it!
When did you last cry, and why?
Watching the documentary The Remarkable Life of Ibelin [about a gamer who died at 25 of a degenerative muscular disease]. I balled.
What would you like to leave your children?
A sense of what really matters.
What single thing would improve the quality of your life?
If I bothered to read instructions.
What do you consider your greatest achievement?
Working on myself. I'm a work in progress to the end.
Would you rather have more sex, money or fame?
Sex.
How would you like to be remembered?
'Oh, she giggled, didn't she?'
What is the most important lesson life has taught you?
That fear and excitement sometimes feel quite similar and you can misinterpret one for the other.
What happens when we die?I think that we dissolve into the soil and new things sprout from that.
