I was a huge fan of the bandleader Ray Noble when I was younger. He was one of the biggest musical names of his day and wrote such romantic songs as ‘Goodnight Sweetheart’ and ‘The Touch Of Your Lips.’ Wonderful stuff. June Whitfield Read Quote
Airports drive me mad. I don’t mind the flying; it’s all the hassle before you get on the plane and afterwards, including walking five miles through corridors to the point where you queue for ages to check passports and hope your luggage has arrived safely. June Whitfield Read Quote
I take too much luggage. I’m the kind of person who can’t decide whether to pack two or four pairs of trousers, so I usually take them all. I’m getting better but still inclined to take too many items, just in case I need them; I never do. June Whitfield Read Quote
A quick trip to Paris would be nice. It’s a beautiful city, and I’ve visited several times. I like the buzz, the sights and restaurants. June Whitfield Read Quote
Like all actors, after every job, I think, ‘Well, that’s the last one, and I’d better think about doing something else.’ But I’ve been so very lucky, and I’ve managed to keep going for a long time. It’s just the way the cookie crumbles, and it’s crumbled pretty well for me. I appreciate it, and I realise how lucky I am. June Whitfield Read Quote
I’m always up for cinema, and then you hear that, actually, the location is in a very cold place with all the attendant discomforts, and TV is much cosier and warmer. June Whitfield Read Quote
I’ve taken a personal trainer once a week because I’m dreadful. I don’t exercise; I don’t walk about an awful lot because my feet hurt, so I thought it was a good idea. It makes you move bits you otherwise might not. June Whitfield Read Quote
I’ve always slept pretty well and aim to get eight hours a night. I try to be in bed by midnight at the very latest. Occasionally I’ll have an afternoon siesta if I’m going out in the evening. June Whitfield Read Quote
I’ve never had a particularly sweet tooth. In fact, during the war, I used to swap my sweet ration coupons with my father – and he’d give me his clothing coupons in return. Looking good was more important to me than scoffing sweets. June Whitfield Read Quote
