I mainly read biographies, autobiographies and plays with the odd
novel thrown in for good measure. My favourite novels would have to
be To Kill a Mockingbird and Of Mice and Men.
I like watching action, comedies and musicals but I'm not averse to
sitting down to watch a romantic movie. My favourites include
Forrest Gump, 50 First Dates, Dirty Dancing, The Dish, Ghost Town,
Mamma Mia!, Knocked Up, Pirates Of The Caribbean, Moulin Rouge, Hot
Fuzz, Run Fat Boy Run and Armageddon.
Where do I start with shows?! Phantom of the Opera, Miss Saigon,
Shrek, Grease, JCS, Rent, Little Shop Of Horrors, Cabaret, The
Producers and The Rocky Horror Picture Show to name a few. The list
is endless really!
I absolutely love stand-up comedy. I particularly like Bill Bailey,
Jack Dee, Lee Evans, Peter Kay, John Bishop, Michael McIntyre,
Russell Howard, Dara O'Briain, Reginald D Hunter, Jason Manford,
Shappi Khorsandi, Omid Djalili, Sarah Millican, Andi Osho, Tim
Minchin and Dylan Moran. I have seen the first five live and I plan
to see the others at some point.
When it comes to TV, I enjoy watching comedy panel game shows like
8 Out Of 10 Cats, Mock The Week, Have I Got News For You, QI,
Shooting Stars, Never Mind The Buzzcocks etc. I also like Top Gear,
House, Heroes, Spooks, The Good Wife, How I Met Your Mother, Who Do
You Think You Are?, New Girl, Phoenix Nights, Outnumbered, Black
Books, Coronation Street, Scrubs, Only Fools and Horses, An Idiot
Abroad, Gavin and Stacey, The IT Crowd, The Big Bang Theory, Home
and Away and Neighbours.
I am quite eclectic when it comes to music with my favourites being
rock, cheesy 80s pop and, of course, musicals.
I will pretty much try any food but I especially like Japanese,
Chinese and Indian food.
