ROBBIE ON HIS ANCESTRY: "I come from French aristocratic stock. One of my ancestors ran off from Ireland because of something that was going on in Ireland at the time and became a farmer in France working in the gardens of an aristocratic house and the daughter fell in love with my ancestor and they got married and from their family, we sprang up. And I didn't know this the first time we went to Paris, but I really felt at home there and perhaps it was because of that."

ROBBIE ON LOVE: "I don't think I've ever been in love. I would like to fall in love though. I'd like to think it's when you're really happy and content with who you're with."

ROBBIE ON MONEY: "It's sad, I know, but I spend money going down the pub and having a laugh. And clothes and roller blades and CD's."

ROBBIE ON ROLLERBLADING: "When I go rollerblading, I've got this route which takes me past the police station. I latch onto a car and get a ride round the roundabout, then I let go, jump the curb, and then a hedge and as I do it, I look in the police station window and this copper's just staring at me shaking his head. One day I'm gonna get it."

ROBBIE ON HOUSEWORK: "My worst thing is washing the dishes and wiping them. I have to admit though, my mum doesn't really make me do any housework. I'll have to get domesticated when I get me own place but I can't see it."

ROBBIE ON HIS MUM: "My mum has all the answers. She's a very, very wise person and she can sort out all my problems. Whenever I've been away from home or I've had a hard time I always think, well, it'll be okay because I'll go and see me mum and she'll have me right in no time."

A THING TO REMEMBER ABOUT ROBBIE: He once set his mum's house on fire!
