Roland Johnson: “What’s on your mantelpiece?”

20 questions with model, musician and Mr England 2011-2013 winner Roland Johnson

 

The Steeple Times shares “wit and wisdom”. What’s your guiding force?

The sense of achievement.

 

“Don’t get even, get medieval” is, in our humble opinion, a great motto. What’s yours?

Get out of your comfort zone and take every opportunity.

 

Kerry Katona was considered unacceptable in 2007. Who or what is unacceptable in 2013?

Irrelevant Facebook status updates.

 

Tony Blair misses being Prime Minister. What do you miss most in your life?

Living without a care in the world.

 

What might you swap all your wealth for?

I’m happy where I am at the moment.

 

Donald Trump was once a case of: “If you owe the bank a thousand, they close you down; but if you owe the bank a billion, you own the bank”. What’s your view on the banking crisis?

In the UK, some people consider charity to “begin at home”. What’s your view and what causes do you personally support?

Charity is great and I do my bit when I can. I used to be a ambassador for Variety – The children’s charity and loved every moment of it. Had to quiet down a little due to studies but I help out where I can. Volunteering is great. I can’t stand the people that try stop you in the streets though.

 

The judge in Law Abiding Citizen states: “I can pretty much do whatever I want” before being blown up whilst answering her mobile phone. What’s your view on the appropriate use of such devices?

I an interested to see where the world will be in ten to fifteen years, who knows what will be floating around then. These devices have changed lives, but I know many people that cant function without being connected. I like a bit of down time and being disconnected personally.

        • If someone so scintillating and fascinating as you, thinks me a bore then perhaps I need to reassess myself…
