It’s hard to choose, I find all the different approaches to shoots interesting, working for Burberry has always been some of my favourite work.

The Trip to Spain with Steve Coogan and Rob Brydon. Really nice, understated English humour, with a sensitivity towards some of the issues of ageing, love, death, and coming to terms with them.

What is the funniest thing that’s happened to you on a shoot?
I’m very spaced out and don’t usually notice things being funny. Sometimes I can tell that a collection is bad, but it’s mean to laugh.
What is your best body feature?
I’ve got a tattoo I like on my wrist – dunno if D1 know about that. It says “I can’t explain it with words”.
What are your summer plans?
Going interrailing. I had to plan my outfits in advance to be enthusiastic about it, but it’ll be sick. I’ll look back and be grateful for the time with my friends.
