"I am not married, no. I wasn't really into the notion when I was younger, but now I think a proposal..." — Miranda Hart

Things don't have to come to you in your youth. It's fine for them to come to you when you get older. That's a motto in my household.

I never admitted what I wanted to do for a career to anyone until I was 26. I wish I'd piped up at 18.

I spent my childhood clad in 1970s hand-me-downs, primarily from male cousins, which mainly consisted of a selection of beige, brown and orange dungarees. That, combined with a perfectly round pudding-bowl haircut, made me look, on a good day, like a cross between Ann Widdecombe, one of the Flower Pot Men, and a monk.

If you're naturally a certain size, I think it suits you and you can see that. There's no point in trying to conform for the sake of it. People are meant to be different shapes, and their different shapes are so interesting and, ultimately, why people fall in love with them.
