I'm always slightly envious of people who become extremely rich without anyone knowing who the hell they are, like financiers.

My father was a fish market porter. So I grew up on fish, because he used to steal one a day, I grew up on the very best fish that money could buy, 'cause he only stole the good stuff.

I am in so many movies that are on TV at 2:00 a.m. that people think I am dead.

I'll always be there because I'm a skilled professional actor. Whether or not I've any talent is beside the point.

I never look back at all. All of my sentiment and emotion goes into my family. I'm an extremely family oriented person and I have a very, very happy family life. That doesn't just include blood relations. I have friends who are close to me.

The first thing I'll do if I want to look really crappy is, I don't wear any makeup at all.

I've done a lot of radio in my life. I've done radio plays for the BBC when I was young so I was absolutely used to that style of work, of working with the voice. I have a very distinctive voice so it's always great for me because I open my mouth and everybody knows who it is.
