Tim
'She looks like a student to me, because of her hair and
the bright, stripy top. She's in her early twenties and into indie music.
She looks good fun but she's not really my type. I don't mind her clothes
but they look a bit tight - and her legs are so long, she looks like she's
on stilts. 'She's single; she's too young to be married, and she doesn't
look like she's in a serious relationship. If I was flippant, I'd say
she lives in a squat in south London, but she'd prefer a flat in Notting
Hill.'
Helen
'She's 23 or 24 and has been out of university for a couple
of years. She's ready to take on the world -she's working her way up in
marketing or a similar career and she's ambitious. She went to a comprehensive
school; she's not from the South, although I think she lives and works
in London. She worked hard at college and, though she wasn't a top student,
she did pretty well. She's trendy in a high-street way. She's interested
in current affairs and has strong views. I don't think we'd have much
in common as she's so young, but I'd find her interesting.'
Fred
'There's a cheekiness about her; her hair, which is cut
and curled under her jawline, complements this studied cheeky-girl image.
Her mouth is tightly set, but there's a slight smile, so she comes over
as insolent rather than threatening. She might be self-conscious, but
she covers this with "attitude" and stylish clothes.
Craig
'She's had to struggle and is awkward and pedantic - she's
fussy, tidy and a bit impatient. She likes cats a lot. She exhausts herself
and burns lots of energy; she eats badly and on the run. I think her job
is something to do with photography. However, travel - especially to the
US -is going to be an extremely important aspect of her life.'

COMMENTS
Deborah
Whitehead, 33, is a production manager for a direct marketing company.
She shares a flat with a girlfriend and has a boyfriend. 'Well, Tim got
more wrong than anyone, except the Notting Hill bit. I don't live there,
but I'd like to. Musically I'm into lots of things, from Ella Fitzgerald
to Everything But The Girl and Van Morrison. 'It's flattering that people
think I look so much younger than I am. Helen is right about me going
to a comprehensive school, but a bit off the mark when it comes to my
career. I was originally a production director - and very ambitious -
but then I left to study at college as a mature student, and I actually
got a first-class degree. 'I feel Fred was spot-on. Craig is only partially
right, though - I don't like cats and I'm not fussy or tidy, but I can
be contrary. I do eat badly as well, and burn myself out living life to
the full. Travel has already been a big part of my life; I was recently
thinking of taking a job in the US, but another psychic
advised me not to go. 'I certainly judge people before I've even spoken
to them - we all do. I suppose the key thing is to be prepared to change
your mind later on.'
