Living in Primrose Hill: Sadie Frost on why she returned to the north London village where she was brought up

As soon as I left hospital after I was born, I was taken to Primrose Hill. It’s where I spent my first years, in the Sixties. We didn’t have a garden so we would have my birthday parties and things like that on the hill. It’s always been a special place for me.

It was a real concoction of all different kinds of cultural backgrounds at the time, it wasn’t a middle-class, affluent area . It has changed, but it’s still kept its charm because it’s cut off and there aren’t many through roads. Obviously there’s more people who go to Primrose Hill now but it will always be my home.
