The funniest standup I’ve ever seen …

Well, there’s no way I can get away with not saying my husband Chris (Ramsey), is there?! He is very funny, so I guess I don’t really mind.

The funniest sketch I’ve ever seen …

It has to be the sketch from Smack the Pony when they work in an office and everyone is Irish dancing around as they work, poker-faced.

The funniest book I’ve ever read …

The Secret Diary of Adrian Mole Aged 13¾ – I would be desperate to read it as soon as I got in from school and I’d titter along on my bed. I later found out it was written by a woman (Sue Townsend), which made it even better in my opinion.

The funniest film I’ve ever seen …

Bridesmaids. I’ve seen it so many times, yet if it’s on the TV I’ll watch it again. My sister and I still quote it weekly.

The funniest TV show I’ve ever seen …

The American Office. I’ve watched all nine series twice. I also loved the UK version, but the American one delves a lot deeper into the other characters.

The funniest meal I’ve ever eaten …

Chris and I went to a restaurant in New York a couple of years ago where they sing and dance – it was fantastic! Only problem was, they set off confetti cannons while you’re eating, and the confetti kept going on my chicken wings.

The funniest hairstyle I’ve ever had …

It would have to be when I was a kid. I had the standard girl, short fringe with a bob cut. My mam to this day thinks I looked adorable; I think I looked like a Cabbage Patch Kid.

The funniest dream I’ve ever had …

My dreams are pretty terrifying as I watch awful programmes where people get kidnapped and murdered, so they’re usually quite disturbing.

The funniest joke I’ve ever heard …

Why did the prawn leave the disco? Because he pulled a mussel.

Sh**ged. Married. Annoyed by Chris and Rosie Ramsey is out now (Penguin Michael Joseph, £16.99). For info on the podcast and live shows, visit shaggedmarriedannoyed.com
