It took me a while to get established - success didn't happen overnight.

I want to look beyond the legends, to find the real story of Scotland. And it's every bit as thrilling.

I trust to luck. I am planning to be a millionaire before I die but I don't have a plan as to how that will happen.

My wife has always supported me in my career, even when there were times when it was more sensible to get a job. It has been her confidence in me that has helped enormously.

People looking at what I do from the outside would think it was a secure world I live in, but it isn't. Just because you had a series last year, doesn't mean you will have one next. But I am quite happy with that.

It is security that I crave and money provides security. What is that old line about money? "Some is good, more is better and too much is just right."

My father's example taught me self-reliance, to make my own luck, and to work to make things happen.
