You know what the secret to weight loss is? Don't eat much.

As an actor, I really like Philip Seymour Hoffman. I think he's a genius.

Talking to celebrities is too much effort. They all think the same.

On one level, going bust didn't bother me. It was the 80s, and there wasn't the stigma about bankruptcy that you might think. My mates weren't bothered. My dad was in business.. he knew that it happened, too. He loaned me the money to bail me out, and I got a loan from the bank to pay him back.

My dad did teach me a very important lesson about people when he explained to me that everybody around you will have an invisible sign on their head, which says, "Make me feel important."

In TV, film, and music there's a lot of snobbery, and I don't like it. I've never been a cultural snob.

Have I got a black book? Yes, it's called a mobile phone. I do get offers. There is no shortage of people if you want to go on dates - working in TV, living in L.A., it is there if you want it.
