I Don't Like Conflict.

Everyone Wants To Be Young, Beautiful And Rich. I Don't Say That Scornfully: There Are Worse Things To Want To Be. But That's Why, For Example, People Don't Begrudge Kate Moss How Much She Earns For A Day's Work But Will Fulminate Over The Take-home Pay Of Some Fat, Old Water Board Exec.

It's True That I Wouldn't Have Written The First Book Had My Sister And Mother Been Alive. It Was My Way Of Continuing Our Conversation. It's Also This Jewish Thing Of Naming And Remembering People, And I Think There Is A Sense Of Keeping That Side Of Life Going.

I Know The Crew So Well, So I Forget I'm Being Filmed. It's Like Cooking With A Friend In The Kitchen - You're Talking, As You Do, And Maybe You're Telling Her About This Wonderful Way To Prepare Lamb Chops - It's More Natural, More Honest.
