On stage, I think I'm 35. Working takes over my whole body and I become a younger man - that's why I won't stop.

I don't do close-ups any more. I am better looking from the waist downwards.

People think I am the crazy person on stage, but I know how to relax.

That Mick Jagger, I feel sorry for him. After all these years he still can't get no satisfaction.

In my mind, everything is too sanitised on television - what is wrong with things going wrong?

Lots of people come up to me and call me Sir Bruce now. Interviewers call me Sir with every question, but I never make a point of making people call me Sir. It doesn't matter to me, though; it was a great honour to be knighted. I'm very proud of it.

When I was in the business as a young performer, it was a recognised fact that when you got to 60 you were out, because there'd be a new crop of comics coming up all the time, every 10 years or so.
