Michelle Brookes - Pictures & Performance Writer

What is your guilty pleasure?
Oh dear...so many, I’ll go with daydreaming and fantasising in general

Who or what is the love of your life?
Reading and writing have probably been the biggest constants in my life, that and biscuits.

It’s Friday night – where are you and what are you doing?

I’m in a pub, chatting with friends and winding down. There’s a gin and tonic and possibly some snacks on the way. If I’m not working tomorrow there may be a bar or two afterwards.

Which tea are you?

Twinings breakfast tea, because I love all things breakfasty and I love Stephen Fry

Who is your leading man or lady?
It varies hugely depending on my mood but probably Colin Farrell or Christian Bale
