Falconer: 'I received 300 Valentine's cards'

The TV host was bombarded with love messages after she complained about never receiving cards on February 14 in a newspaper interview ten years ago.
"When the article was printed they put my work address at the bottom of the piece," Falconer told The Mirror.
"To my utter delight that Valentine's Day I got 300 sympathy Valentine's cards and a bouquet of flowers! It was amazing and seeing as I was single at the time it really cheered me up. It was the best year ever!"
Falconer added that her partner James Midgley now likes to keep her guessing on Valentine's Day.
"A few years ago he got me a lovely paperweight with the dictionary definition of the word 'love' in it, and he also took me to Vienna one year," she explained. "But last year I didn't get a card so I don't know what to expect today!"
