Lorraine Kelly - Presenter
Lorraine is a popular TV presenter on GMT and a columnist. In 2004 she became the first female rector of Dundee University. Lorraine was born in Glasgow and was once a Brownie.“Women should be true to themselves.”
My husband Steve and I had a wonderful time in Orkney when Rosie was a baby. The weather was incredibly sunny and we did a lot of island hopping. Orkney is so beautiful. We saw lots of puffins and seals and went for long walks on the beach and ate seafood. It was heaven.
I think we have a good sense of identity and we never really get above ourselves. Scots are warm and friendly but don't suffer fools gladly
Oh tough question! I think it would have to be Sir Alexander Fleming who discovered penicillin. Was it an accident? How did it come about? I would love to tell him just what his amazing invention has done for the world and how many lives he has saved!
I just won the Royal Television Society Award for Best Presenter and I was very flattered as it was judged by people in the TV industry.
I always have fun on GMTV and I especially enjoy our fashion items with Mark Heyes who always makes me laugh.
Hardest was Maria Carey because she was a little out of it and I think was suffering from jet lag.
Most interesting was Sir Peter Ustinov as he was so bright and such a wonderful communicator and had so many stories to tell.
Most surprisingly likeable was probably Bette Midler who I thought would be a toughie and was a pussy cat and loves Scotland, We spent most of the interview with me telling her where to visit. She did end up going to Inverness on her holidays!
Lots of sleep and drink lots of water. Being happy is worth more than any amount of expensive face cream!
She loved tuna pasta and still does. She eats quite well and enjoys fruit but is not keen on veg.
I want to visit the South Pole and I would love to write a novel.
I think all of them but if pushed then socially – because we all have to learn to respect each other and to get on with each other.
Tolerance and patience.
To help other people and to always be true to themselves.
My Mum. I have learned just about everything from her and no one has a bad word to say about her. Her most overused phrase is “If you can't say anything nice don't say anything at all”. I think that is a good way to live your life.
Queen Elizabeth the first – the ultimate woman in a man's world; Former Israeli PM Golda Meir (likewise) Bette Davis for the movie gossip; Hilary Clinton to find out what really went on in the White House and Whoopee Goldberg to make us laugh.
I would give it to MS because my sister in law suffers from this cruel disease and we need to find a cure.
Intolerance bullying and bigotry make me seethe!
Beans on toast!
