British tennis legend Tim Henman cannot decide whether he would save his Olympic medal or his golf clubs if his house were on fire.
What was your first car?
A Peugoet 306 X Si
Best freebie you've ever had?
A car - not the Peugeot, it was a Jaguar XKR. Better than a kick in the head.
What is the cutest animal you have ever eaten?
I don't know. A pheasant? They're not really very cute. Never had rabbit. It would have to be lamb, probably. Or duck.
Your house is on fire, what do you save?
Either my golf clubs or my Olympic medal... (thinks about it)... I guess I'd have to put the medal just ahead. I can always get more golf clubs.
Apart from your wife, who is your ideal woman?
That Brazilian one, Gisele.
Have you ever gone on a blind date?
No.
What is on your iPod?
I've just given my iPod to my daughter, so it will have stuff like Mamma Mia and Lazytown on it. Have you ever listened to Lazytown? Don't.
Who or what really grinds your gears?
Bad drivers.
What is the worst place you've ever visited?
I played in some pretty ordinary places in India when I was just starting out. Let's just say it was good incentive to get my ranking up and move on to some nicer places.
Have you ever been mistaken for someone else who is famous?
No.
Tell us a joke.
No way! I spoke to The Times recently and the guy asked me if I remembered doing an interview last year when he asked me to tell a joke; I had told him I'd call him back with one but never did, so he made me think of one on the spot and it took me about half an hour. I don't have any that are very suitable... I might have to call you back!
(Twenty minutes later, he calls back)
What's the difference between Alan Shearer and Newcastle? Alan Shearer will be on Match of the Day next season.

Alex Chick is the best writer on these pages you idiot, Early Doors is cr@p when someone else writes it. Henman a cool guy but was never destined for the top, no killer instinct
He was pretty good. Seem like a nice guy too but he's a thing in the past.
Forget about him.
BRITISH legend you morons. Compared to the rest of them, HE IS.
