Sally's Saucy Stories

Product Information

My youngest child Hattie - who’s 12 - gets a bit embarrassed though when she see the scenes. She’s like: “Oh God, that’s disgusting!” with her little hands in front of her face. Mix the two slaw ingredients in a bowl and set aside. Mix all the sauce ingredients in a second bowl, then adjust the heat levels to your liking by adding Tabasco to taste – it should be very potent and over-seasoned, so add a bit more than you think it needa. Set aside. Through all of this, Sally continued on screen, night after night, as before. Only a handful of her colleagues were told.

It's actually been quite easy because TV is second nature to me. It's something very positive, some-thing very honest. It certainly shows a different side to me. It's warts and all.Sally's not looking forward to the sedentary life she'll be forced to lead while she recovers. A natural out-doors type, with a love for sailing and travelling, she knows it will be hard.

She is to have reconstructive surgery. "I think when it comes to breast cancer, each woman will decide for herself whether she feels she needs reconstructive surgery.For me, I'm in my early 40s and I have a new relationship which is very important to me. I've discussed this with my partner at length and I want to have reconstructive surgery. Arrange your chosen vegetables on a big platter – the potatoes and eggs may need a tiny drizzle of extra oil and a sprinkling of salt on top – then serve with the sauce in a little bowl. On the side. Kate Garraway has sent pulses racing after stripping completely naked following her I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here! exit.

Before long, though, the journalist in her took over and she began a frantic search for information while she awaited her next appointment with the consultant. Denise did slap me for real though! I just said to her, ‘Let’s not mess about, just go for it’. So she did and slapped me really hard. It was great fun because I hadn’t had that drama before. From then on I got story, after story. That's the practicalities sorted out. Emotionally, though, she's been wrung out - and she knows there's more wringing to go. I started phoning people, getting books. I was voracious, absolutely voracious. I needed to be informed. I read every book I could. One project that she has committed to, with breathtaking candour, is the recording of the next few months of her life by BBC South's Southern Eye unit. Filming has already begun.I will be a different person; a much more open person - much happier, in a funny sort of way. "I'm not an aggressive sort of person at all, but when I'm on television there a particular image I suppose that is taken on. It's not the true image of me." If there's one thing I'd like to be able to do with this whole bloody thing, it's to show people that you can get through it and have a long and happy life.

The impact of it has brought up emotions in me that I didn't know I had. And that's going to go on. Every day I learn something about myself which I never thought I would. Yes, I've got cancer cells. But when you're perfectly healthy and feel well, it just seems radical to be doing this." Afterwards, I just burst into tears - uncontrollable crying for about five minutes. So much, John Paul couldn't get anything out of me for ages, which was awful for him."It's going to make me feel better with my partner and give me the confidence I need in the job that I do." Now that the operation is imminent, though, she does admit to doubts and fears. "I'm getting very nervous. You think of this operation in the future, the future, the future. Now I'm thinking 'I'm perfectly healthy! Why am I doing this' Because I am perfectly healthy. The 52 year old finished in fourth place on the hit ITV show on Saturday night, missing out on a place in the final where Jacqueline Jossa was crowned Queen of the Jungle. Later, I kept asking for appointments with the doctors and nurses to talk about it. I must have been a real nuisance, but I had to know - that this didn't have to be life-threatening."
