We asked him some questions…
Q. With lists due to the North Pole, what is in your list to Father Christmas this year?
A. To be surrounded by family and loved ones. I’m kidding, much rather have the new assassins creed because pirates are cool… And maybe a new Carhartt beanie.

Q. Where is your favourite Edinburgh spot?
A. On Carlton road under Waterloo place. That massive underpass is awesome at night, with its neon lights and all.

Q. What is your signature dish?
A. Used to be fat American pancakes but they can get boring… So probably Thai sweet chilli tuna burgers.

Q. If you were to have a dinner party of 4 guests, dead or alive, who would they be and why?
A. Four of Johnny Depp’s different characters so as to see how they would get along. I’d especially like to see how the mad hatter deals with it. Then I’d
probably have Raoul Duke (Fear and Loathing) to watch him eat the table or some shit, Edward Scissorhands to chop the veggies and John Dillinger (Public Enemies) because it wouldn’t work unless I had one sane person to talk to, even if its a gangster.

Q. Describe your first and fondest childhood memory.
A. Very different: first was biting a kid’s arm on second day ever of school and
missing break time, then fondest is probably skiing with my grandad when he
decided it would be the last time he did.

We asked her some questions…
Q: If you were to have a dinner party of 4 guests, dead or alive, who would they be and why?
A: 1. Derren Brown. He intrigues me and I love his work. I also fancy him a little bit… that may be weird.
2. David Tennant. I definitely fancy David Tennant. He was my favourite Doctor in Doctor Who and he was also amazing in Shakespeare’s Much Ado in the
theatre.

Q: If you could wave a magic wand, what ill in the world would you solve and why?

Q: With lists due to the North Pole, what is in your list to Father Christmas this year?
A: A PUPPY! Although there is no chance of that happening. Probably then a little money contribution from my parents to help me fund a trip abroad to volunteer with wildlife.

Q: How many American states can you name off the top of your head?
A: Only those beginning with ‘M’, because I got asked that question in a game of trivial pursuit once and never forgot it. Minnesota, Mississippi, Montana, Maryland, Massachusetts… the list goes on.

A. Old town.

Q. Which Scottish poet would we be most likely to find you holed up in a corner reading: Robert Burns or Carol Ann Duffy?
A. Burns as I believe Carol Ann Duffy’s poetry is not democratic English but cast-off bits of oligarchical commodity English, in her poem ‘Death of a Teacher’ Professor Duffy desires to humanise the linguistic semantic detritus of our particular phase of oligarchical consumerism. It is a laudable attempt. Burns’ directness and sincerity intertwined with themes of radicalism and republicanism has seen countless landmarks and organisations created in his honour. In 2009 Robert Burns was voted Greatest Scot of all time by STV, narrowly beating William Wallace. Carol Ann Duffy wasn’t included in the competition.
