I'm at my best when... I get that woozy feeling just before I drift off to sleep.

Those closest to me would describe me as... laid-back, generous, unpunctual, girlie and a bit of a comedienne.

One thing about my past I don't easily admit is... I once had the equation answers written underneath my tie during a maths test at school. I still didn't pass! I'm normally honest and can't lie to save my life, so it was a bit out of character.

Three things I'd want with me on a desert island are... my mobile phone so I could call home, face wipes to keep me refreshed and Sniff, my comfort blanket. I've had it since I was a baby and still sleep with it in my bed - I can't live without it!

One thing I'd like to do before I die is... go to every continent. I want to visit everywhere around the world.

If I advertised myself on a dating site, it would read... "5ft 4in brunette who's up for a laugh is looking for a tall, kind guy who will protect me, love me (even through all my faults) and be my best friend."

The thing I like least about myself is... I'm too conscious of what other people think. I wish I could say and do whatever I want without thinking about how it's going to look.

My fantasy dinner date would be... Michael Jackson. I've been besotted with him since I was young. He's a legend. And Dawn French because she's funny and reminds me of my mum.

The thing I value the most is... my friends, my family and my dog, Phoebe. They're always there for me.

My biggest regret is... some of my boyfriends weren't good for me and I probably went against my parents' wishes. But I've learnt from my mistakes.

If I wasn't an actress I'd be... an air stewardess. I worked at a check-in desk at Manchester Airport before Coronation Street, so I've had some experience.

Answer the following
I find it easy to hide my true feelings from others... Always
Being tidy and organised is not important to me... Always
I smile often and have a good sense of humour... Always
I enjoy participating in high-risk activities... Never
I keep upbeat even when things are going badly... Often

MICHELLE SAYS: "This symbolises what makes me happy. Family equals love, Sunshine means recharged batteries, And just thinking of food gets me excited!"

'MICHELLE HIDES ANXIETY BUT LIKES ATTENTION'
JAMES SAYS: "Michelle values harmonious family relations. Her family provide a refuge from daily pressures, which indicates that she was overprotected as a child. Consequently, she has a tendency to avoid risky, complex situations and people in favour of safer, sensible solutions.

Michelle hates structure, preferring to adapt readily to people and situations. Although she appears confident in unfamiliar social situations, she may hide internal anxiety, which stems from low self-confidence, probably because of negative feedback in her childhood.

The large number of people in Michelle's picture reflects her love of others. The hearts indicate her sentimental nature and love for her boyfriend [club promoter Brad Howard]. Drawing herself in the middle suggests that Michelle likes ¿to be the centre of attention in social situations and is comfortable in this role."

James is a specialist in psychometric testing.

Watch Michelle as Tina McIntyre in Coronation Street, Monday, Wednesday and Friday evenings, ITV1.
