What's the worst job you've ever had?

Working at a call centre for an online bank as an 'advisor'.

Have you got any unusual habits?

Yes. My wife hates it when I roll my eyes back to reveal the whites of the eyes, while hiding the pupils beneath my eyelids.

Who is your hero and why?

Stephen Fry. He's supremely talented, clever, funny, articulate but self deprecating and humble with it.

What book are you reading at the moment or tell us your favourite?

I'm something of a feast or famine reader. At the moment I have partly read The Hunger Games, putting it down temporarily to complete other projects. Favourite autobiography is Moab Is My Washpot.

What was the last film you watched?

It was Jack Reacher.

First single/record you ever bought?

Land of Confusion by Genesis and West End Girls, Pet Shop Boys bought at the same time.

Facebook or Twitter? (And what is your twitter handle/name?)

On Facebook, on LinkedIn and on Twitter – @mabennett61 & @GloucesterRT146 – I love it.
