My proudest achievement has been the success of the shows and artists I have been involved with, because they were made in Britain.

I'd say the most dangerous thing I've ever done is probably bungee jumping in Thailand...

Anything I shouldn't laugh at makes me laugh. I mean, I'm bad at that, when somebody is singing something terribly and I'm thinking to myself, 'If I laugh now, this is the absolute worst thing I could ever do,' and then I start laughing and I can't stop.

The young people working for me are ambitious and hard-working. That work ethic has always been a trait of the British.

I've always been petrified of working for a boss who I didn't like but who I was in fear of, because I wanted my salary.

It's not our intention to be mean. That's just within us.

The only people with power today are the audience. And that is increasing with Twitter, Facebook, and everything else. We cater to their likes and dislikes, and you ignore that at your peril.
