- Owing to the fact that her father Claus Toksvig was covering the Apollo mission, at the moment when Neil Armstrong stepped onto the Moon, an 11-year-old Sandi was in Houston's Mission Control, holding the hand of Mr Armstrong's secretary.
- Spoke with a strong New York accent when she first came to the UK aged 13 and found nobody would talk to her. After six months at school Sandi decided to adopt an English accent to help her make friends and after watching the film Brève rencontre (1945) decided to try and emulate actress Celia Johnson's speaking voice.
- Has three children: two daughters, Megan (b. 1988) and Jesse (b. 1990), and one son, Theo (b. 1994), with former partner Peta Stewart (they separated in 1997). The children were carried by Stewart and conceived through artificial insemination by donor, Christopher Lloyd Pack, Roger Lloyd Pack's brother.
- Although born in Denmark, she grew up in the USA until, at the age of 14, she moved to the UK, where she has lived ever since.
- Lives on a houseboat in Wandsworth with wife Debbie.
- [joking about her origin in reference to Danish bacon]: I am Danish, but you can only tell when I'm naked. I have it written up the side of my body in blue.
- I like Alexander Graham Bell because, having invented the phone, he realised how annoying it was and refused to have one in his study.
- The Tories put the N into cuts.
