Wines are like women in that it's often the imperfections that fascinate.

Every actor wants more offers, but I get enough and I do like to be busy.

I hate to say it, but there seems to have been some sort of dumbing down as far as movies go.

Where we're going, we won't need eyes to see.

I can tell you where I was when Kennedy was shot - which was in the common room at school. I heard about it on the old valve radio. At the time of Armstrong's landing, I was at university rehearsing a play.

I understand acting and I understand actors. I don't really understand the world of celebrity. That's just bizarre. Those sorts of elements I'm at sea with.

When I left university I was working for a documentary film company for six or seven years to the great relief of my father whose greatest waking fear was that I would become an actor.
