Lorraine Burroughs's favourite TV

Unmissable show?

I'm really into Broadchurch at the moment: brilliant story, strong cast, keeps you gripped each week. It feels slightly different from the usual crime-thriller, murder-mystery thing. There's something unique about it; it feels quite epic.

Box set?

I always still pull out my box sets of Sex And The City. I've got all six seasons. Publicly, I'd like to say Carrie's my favourite character, but really it's Samantha.

Bring back ...

Friends. I'd love a reunion episode. I can always rewatch old episodes and still crack up. The way they worked together was something really special. Some of them are superstars now and some aren't, though, so they'd have to let go and have fun. Take the mickey out of each other a little bit.

Come Dine With Me lineup?

Beyoncé, but she'd have to come as Sasha Fierce. That would be way more interesting. The late, great Richard Pryor; he'd keep us cracking up at the table. Someone funny and modern ... Jonah Hill. And someone serious. Like Meryl Streep, who I'd quiz all night. I think we'd be friends for life.

TV turn-off?

Oh, god. Jeremy Kyle, though I do sometimes watch it to see how far my jaw can drop to the floor. I can't understand it. People think they're being fixed by him, but they're just being laughed at. I find it sad and shocking. I turned on the TV when I was in LA, and there he was. I can't get away from him. He's following me. He's probably in Ikea with me now!

Pitch us a TV show ...

I've already got one in my head. It's set in Birmingham, in a betting shop. All the people on day release go there. It's a comedy, or maybe a comedy-horror. Maybe they all turn into vampires. The cast? Samantha Morton, David Harewood, a bit of Jasper Carrott … I'd like to see Helen Mirren in there as well, doing a Brummie accent. She could work behind the till!
