Halle Berry's clock ticking

Oscar-winner Halle Berry says she is more desperate than ever to have a baby as she approaches her 40th birthday in August.

The Hollywood star joked that she was so keen to have children she would do so even if she was not in a long-term relationship.

"If there's no serious man [in my life], whoever I'm dating at the time, I'll say, 'Hey, would you like to have a baby?'."
