Berlin is my favourite city.
I have heard of ‘Green Street’-dedicated birthday parties, a website dedicated only to the clothing. It has no end. If you hashtag #greenstreet or #greenstreethooligans, you cannot go a day without people saying it’s their favourite movie. It’s frustrating because it’s a massive hit, but nobody gives it credit.
Rooney’s a legend. He’s one of my favourite attackers of all time. He’s a guy I really do look up to.
For me the stunts are so cool, they’re one of my favourite things when we’re doing the film.
I’m one of the most adaptable guys I know in as much as travelling is my favourite thing to do in life. With every place I go, I try to stay there long enough to do it justice, long enough so that I can at least imagine what it would be like to live there. Once I imagine that, then it’s OK for me to return home.
If you ask my favourite team, I’ll say Arsenal. It is a club with a good philosophy, where youngsters get their chance.
My favourite thing about the holiday season is to spend time with family and friends and to take time off to celebrate.
‘Baahubali’ is my favourite project.
My favourite character would have to be ‘Ash,’ because I love my brooding bad boys. But a certain snarky talking cat runs a very close second.
The essay is one of my favourite forms of writing, and I feel like what’s inside is really personal, more so than with shorter pieces.
My favourite TV show is… ‘Downton Abbey.’ The characters are wonderful, and the style is created so beautifully on screen. Everything from the table settings to the linen seem perfect to me. While I’m watching it, I’m in a totally different world.
I try to work out with my personal trainer for an hour, four times a week – we mainly concentrate on weights and running. If I’m on the road I sometimes do DVD work-outs in my hotel room – P90X and Insanity are a couple of my favourites.
I don’t have one favourite band. I like everything.
To me, the most important thing is to wear something that I love and feel comfortable in, and Christmas is a great opportunity to get one of my old favourites out.
My favourite thing to do on this planet is to scuba dive.
Edinburgh is my favourite city. We’ll be doing a lot of children’s theatre and galleries.
I love peas and can happily tuck into a big bowl, but my favourite vegetables are Brussels sprouts. I talk about them so much that my fans call themselves Sam’s Sprouts.
The No 10 position is my favourite role, and I’m a player who likes to play in between the lines and try and break that midfield line.
I love going through fashion magazines, love to read – Paulo Coelho is my favourite author.
My favourite thing is cooking for my friends. There are 13 of us who all met at university. They come round once a week, and I make a huge lasagne.
People think I am joking when I say my favourite actors are Shammi Kapoor and Dara Singh.
ER was one of my favourites. I played a car accident victim who has leukemia. I got to wear a neck brace and nose tubes for the two days I worked.
Rose is the most beautiful flower – it and tuberose are my favourites.
My favourite guitar was – I can’t remember if it was ’50s or ’60s – a pale wood Telecaster, and it made me a better player. It was beautiful, so easy to play.
I think the days of just filling the time and putting a disc out is over, and I’m glad, because those are some of my least favourite records.
I did projects on Champlain coming up the St. Lawrence River and on Henry Hudson cast adrift in the bay that now bears his name. And I read dozens of historical novels: Rosemary Sutcliff on Roman Britain and G. A. Henty on British heroes, though my all-time favourite was Ronald Welch’s ‘Knight Crusader.’
September is my favourite month, particularly in Cornwall. I felt, even as a child, that if you get a wonderful day in September, you think: ‘This could be one of the last, the summer is nearly over.’ If you get a wonderful day in May, you think: ‘So what, there’s more coming.’
I love being a mom and having two kids. But I’ve had two C-sections, and I have suffered enough. That’s my favourite mantra when it comes to motherhood.
I watch a lot of old-school wrestling, and one of my favourite matches is my dad vs my step-dad at Starrcade ’85, Magnum TA vs Tully Blanchard. In that match everything looked so aggressive, everything was so real, and it looked like a brutal fight.
Ilaiyaraaja is my most favourite music director. His music was my lullaby, his music was my food, his music was my childhood, his music was my first love, his music was my failure, his music was my first kiss, my first love failure, my success… he is in my blood.
It’s one of my favourite types of comedy, just the awkward moments on camera. For many people, it’s unbearable to watch, but I love seeing it when it’s done right.
In terms of the culture, you can’t beat Japan. It’s my favourite country. It’s one of those places you never want to leave. I love the people, I love the food, and I love their fashion because they’re not afraid to experiment.
‘Beauty Queen’ will always be a favourite because I think it’s a really tight play, and when it’s done right, there is a sadness to it that I love.
I can play the flute. Music was my favourite A-level, and I used to love composing my and stylising my voice to sound like 90’s singing sensation Tori Amos.
One of my favourite things about country music is that, at least until recently, you could always count on a solid story, a punchline and a pun. I think it has that in common with hip hop, where they’re not afraid of wordplay and I really appreciate that.
If you take my stuff apart, you’ll find my choruses of repetitions are picked up almost verbatim from Kurt Vonnegut, and my distanced fracture quality is all from Amy Hempel, who’s probably my favourite writer.
I don’t have a favourite designer. If I like the piece, I don’t really care if it’s any particular brand – I’ll buy!
Soccer is still my favourite sport.
Theatre outings are my favourite thing to spend money on. The most influential play I saw was ‘Bent,’ which starred Ian McKellen. And I loved the original performance of ‘The Rocky Horror Show,’ with Richard O’Brien and Tim Curry at the Royal Court, when I was about 15.
I like all kinds of films; ‘Bommarillu’ is a favourite film. But I can’t make that kind of film.
My early memories of my dad were taking me to play football when I was six – they are happy ones. They are my favourites.
I made three short films of my own which I wrote, produced, directed… you did everything in those days. My favourite one was something I shot on VHS… a little documentary.
A childhood favourite that has stayed with me over the years is Kate Winslet. She’s an amazing British actress who always delivers no matter what role she’s in. Another actress I’ve found incredibly inspiring is Olivia Colman.
At school, my favourite subject was social studies.
‘Laakhon Mein Ek’ is one of my favourite projects.
In ‘Climax’ there are all kinds of colours of skin, all kinds of genders, sexual preferences – but I don’t care, I chose my favourite dancers.
I really love my food. My favourite thing is artichokes. I am not so much interested in desserts or chocolate, though. I also like to cook with my husband Damian.
If you are considered as favourites, you have stand up and deliver. You can’t make too many mistakes. You have to be the best.
Rock guitar is one of my favourite sounds.
I try not to have actors in mind when I write because the tendency then is to be influenced by either their last performance or your favourite of their performances.
I’m trained in classical music, and my favourites have always been rock n’ roll and blues, but I’ve grown up with different kinds of music around me because of my parents.
I like clothes that make me feel good. My favourite designers include Michelle Jonas and Dolce & Gabbana. Their clothes make me feel as if I’m Sophia Loren – really womanly.
I’ve made movies where people say it’s their favourite, but they don’t take it seriously because it just didn’t seem to break through commercially.
I can’t rank anything. I mean, how could anyone possibly say what their favourite piece of music is? I don’t have the ability or the desire to categorise things of that nature.
I’m very happy to sing whatever I’m singing. I’ve always enjoyed any role I’ve been given at a certain time. They’ve all been favourites, they’ve all been wonderful pieces to play.
If there has to be one favourite actor of mine, it has to be Rajesh Khanna.
My favourite England player is Harry Kane.
I’d have loved to have appeared in ‘Absolutely Fabulous’ – that’s one of my favourite shows.
When I became a film-maker, all my favourite films, they weren’t comedies.
According to research,when given a choice, babies choose gold. It’s my favourite colour after black and red.
I adore Britain! It’s my favourite country; I love their eccentricity. I find Britain so inspiring.
And my favourite new songwriter is Joe Banfi from Sheffield. He’s dark, edgy, serene and beautiful.
My favourite designers always create a strong silhouette, like McQueen and Tom Ford and Alaia. I like structured things that you can throw on, and it’s almost like armour, and you’re, like, ready for the day.
