Will you be going to see Iris?

Yes, definitely. I'm a great fan of Judi Dench. I will be interested to see how they deal with the tragedy. In her hands it should be done well.

What about Black Hawk Down?

I'm not into action movies at all but, visually, Ridley Scott's work is always amazing.

Do you watch a lot of television?

I love Sex and the City (Wed. Channel 4, 10pm). I associate with it greatly - not so much for the glamour; it's the psychology of it that amuses me.

What will you be leaving the house for this week?

I would love to see the fabulous Stomp again.

Are you likely to be visiting the Hayward's Paul Klee exhibition?

Klee doesn't really interest me. I love painting though, and in particular Chagall, because I wanted to be one of his painted Brides. I like the fantastic in art, the stuff that can't be photographed.
