Working in a chip shop when I was 16. I gave my friends massive portions, but the smell was gross.

I have been pretty terrible in quite a lot of terrible things.

I’ve done some acting jobs where everybody’s gone out of their way to make sure that you feel annoying and easily replaceable.

I was a bailiff for half a morning. I couldn’t stand it.

Successful like my two uncles, who were paper industry magnates.

My surname. You have no idea how many versions I’ve read and heard. It was especially irritating during my Abba years. You can imagine someone calling our hotel and saying: “I’d like to speak to one of the guys in Abba.” Who do you think the receptionist called, Andersson or Ulvaeus?

Bill Gates. Not only did he build Microsoft, he went on with his wife to create the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation. They support the, in my view, single most important factor in making the world a better place – empowerment of women and girls.

In my professional life, the musical Chess on Broadway. It was a resounding fiasco and played for two months. The butcher of Broadway, Frank Rich of the New York Times, was probably very pleased: I’ve never seen such a bad review in my life.

It’s a calm and secure feeling of deep loyalty.

Nothing, really. But without little sleeping pills, I’d go crazy.
