Hannah Leese is an associate at Roythornes Solicitors. But when she's not working at her day job what does she do?
We found out what Hannah does in her spare time and what she did prior to becoming an East Midlands legal eagle.
What was the last album you bought (and why 鈥 tell us a bit about the music you like)?听
I listen to all my music through Spotify now so can鈥檛 remember the last album I physically bought, but my favourite band of all time is Def Leppard. When we were 19 my friend was lucky enough to win a competition to meet the band and we were ecstatic when we got to go backstage at the gig!
Favourite film (and why)?
Any of the Taken films! That line from the star of the show Liam Neeson: "I will find you and I will kill you."听 Need I say more? OR Blood Father starring Mel Gibson. I love both these films for similar reasons; they both represent the eye-watering lengths fathers will go to to protect their daughters.

Worst job?听
Working at a local pub waitressing when I was in high school. The waitressing was fine, but at the weekends the restaurant would host children鈥檚 parties and I would have to dress up as 鈥淏illy the Bear鈥 and entertain the kids. Not fun (or cool!) particularly when the weather is warm.
Hobbies outside of work?
I鈥檓 currently at 7 and a half months pregnant, so hobbies are unfortunately out of the window. However, I still absolutely love walking my British bulldog puppy.
Biggest extravagance?听
Probably having a cleaner. Working for a top 200 national law firm is pretty demanding so by the time I get home from work the last thing I want to do is start cleaning!
Which smartphone do you have and why?
My iPhone, I couldn鈥檛 expand any further as to what model as I鈥檓 sure there is a new one every two minutes! I am a complete technophobe and so now I can work an iPhone there鈥檚 no going back.
What item could you not live without?
My Cloud 9 hair straighteners! Their straighteners have hailed as 鈥榯he hair hero鈥, and seeing as I am blessed (cursed) with corkscrew curls, I couldn鈥檛 live without these!

What is your best celebrity story?
Meeting 鈥渙ne half鈥 of Blue (Lee and Anthony) at London Euston Station with my friend Katie, who fortunately for her is a mega fan! Hopefully, one day I will bump into the other half.
Where is the best place to eat?
There is a little Italian restaurant called Primo Piano in the local market town close to where I live. The food is excellent so it鈥檚 a firm favourite of mine.
What is your favorite meal?
As an awkward vegetarian, an Italian menu is always my go to as they always have something delicious that caters for all. One of my favorites has to be a caprese salad followed by Eggplant Parmigiana. Delicious!
