If I were a chocolate I'd eat myself. Seriously, we're all interested in ourselves and what other people are saying about us to some extent.

If you fall in love with someone, it doesnt matter who they are. Ive had lots of girlfriends who werent in the public eye. It is hard, all the intrusion: you have a row with someone, and even though youve sorted everything out, you get the are-they-going-to-split headlines for the next ten days.

The only person Ill marry is myself. Believe me, my ego is that big.

Acting can be a difficult business. When I was younger, if my mates were doing better than me, I might be a little bit envious, but as I have got older, I love to see actors cracking on and succeeding. The same goes for writers.

As an actor, you've got to maintain a bit of mystery and at least part of your private life, otherwise the game is up.

I can lip read, so I know what other people are saying about me - especially when I clock them in my rear view mirror.

I appreciate some people enjoy reality TV and enjoy being a part of it - and I do watch it - but it isn't for me.
