What do you do on a Sunday? (courtesy Sunday Express 27/2/00)	Sunday is definitely my favourite day. I don't get up until 11ish. I tend to cook a Scottish breakfast once or twice a month consisting of bacon, sausages, potato scones, eggs and sometimes even a HAMBURGER or PORK CHOP. Otherwise it's orange juice, cereal, toast and tea.I dress very casually in big, baggy comfortable clothes and trainers. If I'm in London I play football most Sunday afternoons. I'm a mad Hibernian fan and I play for the London Hibs Supporters Club. We're top of the league at the moment and are in the cup semi-finals. You can't beat it. We go out whatever the weather, pay Ł5 for the showers, however bad they are, there are no airs or graces. We start at 2pm so that's the afternoon taken care of. After football I'll nip to the pub with the lads and wind down or scoot back home to watch football on telly. I'm actually working the next four Sundays filming Wheel Of Fortune up in Glasgow so I'm afraid my football's going to suffer. Sunday evenings are generally the pictures and a meal. Weekends are normally so hectic so it's nice to have a quiet evening with friends. Otherwise I'll stay at home and have a telly supper. I'm really enjoying Clocking Off at the moment so if I'm not in I'll make the effort to tape it. If I've got some spare time I'll play the piano. I like playing anything from classical stuff and show tunes to the Beatles and George Michael. If I had all the money in the world I wouldn't spend Sunday any differently. With my fees from all my recent TV appearances I am going to buy the team brand new long sleeve strips for the Final, should we get there. My view is normally "if it ain't broke don't fix it", in the circumstances however I am slightly embarrassed turning up in state of the Art gear while my team-mates look like extra's from a Dickensian football game.
