It's not supposed to be easy, if it's easy, it's no good, that's the way I look at it.

I'm busy and that's the way I like it - when I have too much downtime I get into trouble.

I've got wealth and fame but I haven't changed my roots.

Who needs drugs when you have Takeshi's Castle?

I have a stepladder. It's a very nice stepladder but it's sad that I never knew my real ladder.

My life has been, I suppose, the most incredible series of highs and lows.

I've been very lucky, this is my 30th year on TV.
