I don't see a lot of films. I'm quite choosy, but there's certain films that stick out.

I loved playing [the Doctor], and taking part in the basic essence and message of the series which is, it's a short life, seize it, and live it as fully as you can. Care for others. Be respectful of all other life forms, regardless of colour or creed. To be part of that was fantastic.

I went being unemployed for three years to being the lead in a British feature in the days when we only made two a year, 1990. It was ridiculous really.

I only ever worked on interiors, and an interior is an interior. I don't know what they did about exteriors.

The money is better in films and television. But in terms of acting, theatre is more rewarding.

What we have is the here and now, and what we have is each other, and let's find a way to deal truthfully with each other.

We all need a firm sense of identity.
