Edinburgh is so cultural and such a beautiful place to walk around.

I have got the best of both worlds; growing up in Edinburgh and now living outside Glasgow.

I love coming back to Edinburgh. It's nice to spend real time here.

I always feel that when I come to Edinburgh, in many ways I am coming home.

I find Edinburgh a stimulating place in which to live, with it being a city of contrasts, both architecturally and socially, and each district having a definite character.

I had a whole Scottish existence until we moved to London when I was four.

I'm a bit of a Scotophile. I have a house on the Black Isle, so I'm in Scotland quite a lot and think Edinburgh is just the most beautiful city.

This might sound really foolish, but when I came to Edinburgh in 1988 I had spent nearly all my life living south of Bristol, and I was just amazed that a city like Edinburgh was actually in the British isles.

At the moment, my mother is the only one left in Glasgow, although it's certainly my home.

I always knew I would come to London. I loved Glasgow, but it seemed filled with echoes of my parents' lives, and sometimes you just want a city of your own.
