When you're a kid, I think you want to be a film star. And I'm not as enamoured with that any more. The reality of that life is a lot of travel, and a lot of being away, which is impractical because I have four children, so I don't want to be away that much, not the other side of the world away.

There are some people who only know me for cornflakes ads, and that's fine. I have a charmed life.

Math was a two-part exam and I once didn't go for the second part. I knew I'd done so badly on the first it was hopeless. I re-took it about four or five times. I think I eventually got it by getting the top GCSE grade.

I like witty people, people who can be witty on the spot.

I'm prone to a more depressed outlook on life.

I'm a very, very handsome man, and have had to come to terms with it... um, do I like the way I look? In the right light, and with a following wind.

I think it's almost an indulgence to focus on the dark side of things. And as you get older, you want to focus on the positive.
