I think of myself as being Jewish and Irish, despite the fact that I'm English.

My friends have always called me 'Mr. Thorough,' in that when I get into something, I become obsessed with it.

I meet hundreds of people, and I'm not going to remember them. But every single one of them will remember their interaction with me.

Working hard is important. But there is something that matters even more, believing in yourself.

My idea of relaxation is not lying down by a beach. I have to move around, do stuff. Though I'm a massive quiz show person.

No. I am not a royalist. Not at all. I am definitely a republican in the British sense of the word. I just don't see the use of the monarchy though I'm fierce patriot. I'm proud proud proud of being English, but I think the monarchy symbolizes a lot of what was wrong with the country.

England is my home. London is my home. New York feels like, if I have to spend a year living in an unfamiliar city, this is a pretty lovely one to spend a year in, but I will be going home at the end of it, certainly.
