Yorkshire is so much part of me.

East Yorkshire, to the uninitiated, just looks like a lot of little hills. But it does have these marvelous valleys that were caused by glaciers, not rivers. So it is unusual.

I love to be with my kid in Yorkshire. I love it there.

I don't normally take to Yorkshiremen.

The musical heritage of Yorkshire is deep and wide.

I love the drive from York to Whitby over the moors - one of the great journeys, in my book.

I grew up Windlesham in Surrey, which is a beautiful and quaint village.

I'll tell you what, it doesn't get more beautiful than the west of Ireland. Connemara and County Derry are quite stunning, really.

The Huddersfield that I like best is a large town with a big heart and an open mind.

I grew up in North Yorkshire, but now London is home.
