I've seen the Pokémon movie, which is probably the worst movie ever made on any subject ever.

England Their England by AG Macdonell which was written in the thirties and is about a young Scotsman who's got shell shocked during the First World War… I love it.

Internet journalism is not a world we know very well at all. It's conducted more on the screen and less in bars, which makes it rather less useful for getting stories about people throwing up over one another, which is what one's after.

I've got a very peculiar sort of fame, based on being on the telly. It doesn't mean you have the lifestyle people expect.
