My first marriage was totally unsuitable and shouldnt have happened. It was a whirlwind, rebound thing. I was 23 or 24 – a baby. – Carol Vorderman
It really was hand-to-mouth and you can say, Poor little me, how dreadful, what a deprived childhood, but I didnt feel that way at all. Its all about the attitude at home. – Carol Vorderman
I have had stalkers over the years. The police deal with it but it is very scary. One man kept turning up where we filmed Countdown in Leeds, which was scary. It was sad as hed been sectioned and thought I was talking to him through the TV. – Carol Vorderman
When the first baby laughed for the first time, the laugh broke into a thousand pieces and they all went skipping about, and that was the beginning of fairies. And now when every new baby is born its first laugh becomes a fairy. So there ought to be one fairy for every boy or girl. – James Barrie
