Further details
Billie Piper, Alicia Keys and Alan Carr join Jonathan Ross for this week's Friday Night With Jonathan Ross.
Billie Piper tells Jonathan it is hard being a mother: "It's tricky at times... I'm a competitive mother." She had a scare with baby Winston at Christmas: "We really panicked, he was having trouble breathing, I had quite a big fright with him... they wouldn't tell us what it was."
And she says about having more children: "It's probably too soon but you always have it in your mind once you've had one. We were considering an only child, but it sounds a bit cruel."
Billie searches online for all of husband Laurence's screen partners: "I'm terrible, I realise it's completely insane but I'm quite a jealous lover, I'd rather he didn't do it."
But she won't discuss her sex scenes with Laurence: "We don't talk about it, we don't watch the show together, he seems very relaxed about it which is slightly alarming sometimes."
She says David Tennant is a better kisser than Matt Smith but she has finally said goodbye to Doctor Who: "I think enough is enough now."
And she says she won't ever sing again: "I don't have a great voice, I was basically a charlatan, just faking it really."
Also on this week's show, Alicia Keys dispels retirement rumours: "I would like to have the option to be able to retire at 30 but I definitely have so much more to do... I have to perform, I love it so much."
And she reveals she carried a knife for protection growing up in New York.
Alan Carr tells Jonathan he goes out in disguise to eavesdrop for new material.
Notes
Alicia Keys performed Try Sleeping with a Broken Heart.
