What’s the view from your sofa?There are two sofas. From one, you can watch telly; the other looks out on to lovely fields. I was a town girl growing up [around Islington, north London], but I made the choice to move out to the countryside. For my two daughters, it really makes a difference.
What have you enjoyed watching?The whole of Glastonbury. We had family over and it felt like our own mini festival at home. I like to switch off and just watch nice, easy things like Gardeners’ World, University Challenge or Grand Designs. The older I get, the more I just like gentle television.
You’re a contestant on Cooking with the Stars. Do you enjoy cooking?I’d say cooking is probably my favourite hobby. Being in the kitchen, putting the radio on… it’s all about having the time to do it. That’s why I love Sundays – they’re all about making a roast dinner. It’s a bit like a religion for me.
It sounds as if food isn’t just fuel to you, as it is for some people.I love food. I love cooking and going for meals. Cooking for people and watching them enjoy what you’ve cooked, it brings me joy. I just think it’s the heart of family and friendship.
That sounds like sensible behaviour to be modelling for your children.I think it really is. There’s so much pressure with image that I just try to put it into perspective and say to them, “You’re so lucky to be able to see, to be able to hear. As long as you’re not abusing yourself – drinking too much, overeating, you know – whatever shape we are, we’re just very lucky to be here.”
What is out there?My podcast [Life with Nat] is going really well, and I’ve got a book [Happy Days] coming out in October. I would love for a gritty or funny role to come up, but after being Sonia for such a long time, I’m really enjoying being myself.
