The first time I went to Abbey Road and put those headphones on, I discovered I had two voices. I no longer had to shout in the studio, but I can't knock the Cavern or the other clubs because they gave me my strong voice.
I loved everything about show business, meeting the stars, the whole ambience. I was living every young kid's dream. I was told a pop singer's life was three years, but I was still making money seven years later.
After Fergie and Prince Andrew honeymooned at Le Touessrok in Mauritius, Bobby, my late husband, and I were first to stay in their suite. We enjoyed the benefits - all the spoils and the special luxuries. We practically had our own private beach, and it was most romantic.
I'm apolitical. Where all that Conservative business came along from, I don't know.
I humbly apologise for reality Television.
I am falling apart. My hand is falling apart. I can't shake hands. I had arthritis, and I had an operation for it.
I love books and the latest autobiographies. I'm a Gemini and love being with people, but then again, I love my own company, which is when I read most.
Who wouldn't fancy Brian Epstein? He was tall and handsome and had money and class.
Back when I was helping put the swing into the swinging '60s, I used to hang out with Cathy McGowan. We'd be doing 'Ready Steady Go!' on T.V., and Biba used to make our dresses. We'd be in the flat in Cromwell Road on Friday night, just before the live show, and they'd still be sewing.
The nicest thing about coming of age is that I can do whatever I like.
I love cookery programmes.
I've got a bike in the lounge that I watch Coronation Street on. I never had to watch my weight until I had the children, but with the bike, I'm fine.
It's no fun getting older. I might be wearing beautiful diamond earrings, but they can't take away the pain of losing my hearing.
I would have loved to have cracked America. When I tried, I got homesick. Then, when I was in New York, my nanna died, and I just wanted to come home.
The difference with me is that I did inhale.
Anything which interferes with my social life is a no-no.
It's hard to watch your life unfold, and sad. Life changes.
'Blind Date' was my lifeline. It was 90 minutes when I could forget about everything, forget about the world.
I've had a blessed life. I've pulled back from trying to control my destiny and gone back to accepting whatever fate has in store for me. I live for today because I don't know what'll happen tomorrow.
If I can't eat the meal in a restaurant, and the waiter asks, 'Is everything all right, Madam?', I tell them that I'm on a diet.
