What's the best piece of advice you've ever received?
Alice, [To Laura]: Actually you give a good piece of advice - if something goes wrong or something's really embarrassing you always say 'it's a chapter for the book' ? it's all material for the autobiography down the road.
Laura: It makes you feel so much better when something really terrible happens, but also when something really funny happens ? you look back and think 'that's such a good read'.
What advice would you give your teenage self?
Laura: I wish I knew now what I knew then, if that makes sense, but I don't know if I'd change anything ? just enjoy your friends enjoy your life, go out and life a little really.
Alice: I was quite a worrier and quite anxious (which I actually am now), but if I managed to transport a message back to my teenage self it would be ?it's actually all going to be ok?. At least up until the age of 30. I don't know after this, it could all just be a downhill spiral?
What's the biggest challenge you face?
Alice: In life ? early starts are my biggest challenge. Every time I have to set the alarm for any earlier than 7am it's pretty killer. I don't think I'll ever grow out of that.
Laura: Trying to juggle everything is a challenge. But it's a fun challenge, it's not a bad challenge.
Who do you go to for advice?
Laura: My boyfriend Jon is the best barometer of everything and my moral compass. He's good with advice and good at listening - sometimes he doesn't know what to say but you could talk to him for ages and already feel better about it.
Alice: Obviously friends. But sometimes you need a little panel with the optimist, the pessimist, the realist and then the person who comes at it from a different angle.
Laura: Spread the hell amongst everyone so you don't feel any of it, basically.
What's the worst piece of advice you've received?
Laura: Everything will be ok ? sometimes it's not ok. But it's ok for it not to be ok.
Alice: I was once told in a work meeting that you shouldn't do lots of different things, as people will be confused about what you actually do. I think that's the worst bit of advice I've ever been given because what I do now is lots of different things and I can't imagine it any other way. I remember coming out of that meeting five years ago worried about what I should choose as I liked all these different elements of my job.
Laura: Five years ago people didn't do multiple things as much
Alice: No not as many slashes
Laura: actor-slash-model-slash-DJ?.
