A Carol Jackman, chef

Jackman joined the restaurant, Cranberry, eight years ago as a waitress. She soon became restaurant manager before making the big leap into the kitchen. After working under head chef and owner Peter Godden's guidance, she rose to become under-chef. She may be shy and modest (she says she still has a lot to learn), but with her fabulous technique, great organisational ability and impressive creative instincts, her boss says she should go far. During her time at Cranberry, she has also had two children and she feels they have benefited from seeing a mother getting pleasure from her work.

В Sarah Brookes, architect

Brookes set up a business with two friends to design and build a community centre. They then won a competition run by the government to find out more about the effects of architecture on schooling. The firm is currently renovating a school in London. The design will allow flexible, adaptable classrooms and outdoor teaching. Brookes says they hope they will make a difference to the children's lives. Although there is no doubt about that, she worries that she doesn't always do so well fitting her work and her children into her day and that she often puts work first.

C Monika Myles, TV Director

Myles worked as a TV director for four years, then went on to make some award-winning documentaries. She starts filming this week on a big-budget drama for TV but her eventual dream is to make a full-length feature film. She wants to make films that have a message at the end of them. Because she is small and young-looking, she says people initially are unsure about what she is capable of. But when she sees a script, she has a vision and is able to translate it into a moving image. She acknowledges the fact, however, that film-making is also about a team putting their heads together to create a piece of art.
