Not only don't I know who I am, but I'm very suspicious of people who do know who they are. I am sometimes ten or twelve people a day, and sometimes four or five people an hour!

The thing is I'm very interested in bad taste, as anyone who's ever seen me perform or had dinner with me would know.

I think quite often a fate worse than death is life, for lots of people.

I'm obsessive about the kind of melodrama of getting through the days and trying to make them good and funny and a happy experience. But my feeling towards the fans is that they delivered me from darkness.

I really think that reading a whole script is kind of prying and neurotic, don't you?

I was never really happy until I became 'Doctor Who'.

I've never ever read a script. I really must read Macbeth, because I was in it once. I got a lot of laughs in that, I can tell you.
