I like being forced to think about things in a different way.

I do find myself surprised by the comedy shows that seem to have the same joke week in week out.

I don't think I'm really a rude person, but now I see myself on television, I think, 'Oh, God, that is a bit strong.' And I wonder if I've always been like that and I haven't been aware of it.

On the environmental front there's concern about global warming and high levels of carbon dioxide, and trees take in CO2 and store carbon.

You can be a famous poisoner or a successful poisoner, but not both, and the same seems to apply to Great Train Robbers.

I'm a trained lawyer, after all, so I don't have to admit to anything.

My favourite plant is the foxglove. I think they are a perfect balance between being a garden plant and a wild plant, as at home in woodland as they are in a city.
