An interesting fact about you?
I broke my ankle on my first parachute jump. The only other casualty was my sister, who broke her elbow. An inability to undertake dangerous sports appears to run in the family.

An interesting fact about you?
I had a very close encounter of the fishy kind when I was about seven years old. Upon calling my dad over to look at the ‘seagull’ I had found whilst in the sea in Australia, I was quickly removed from the water by the most frantic version of him I had ever seen. What I had actually discovered – and attempted to make fast friends with – was a very large stingray.
