I have a knack of making villainous people a little bit sympathetic, a bit of fun on screen.

I don't do it often, but I do cry. I also laugh a lot; people tell me I'm funny and I do like to laugh.

I've done my job and I've got the picture out there, and I'm very happy with it.

Comedy is underrepresented in every actor's life, because it's so bloody difficult to write.

You start pretending to have fun, you might have a little by accident.

I'm not tough anymore, I'm 82.

If you go away on location for three months and your wife stays at home, you've made a whole new load of friends and she's made a whole new load of friends and you get home and you're kind of strangers.
