I'm an armchair psychologist, I suppose, and I like to kind of sit around and guess and pretend I know what's going on.

And I like people. I like to know what you're really up to. I'm a bit of a nosey busy body. Why do they do the things they do? Why are they prepared to do the things they do to get what they want? When? Where? Who?

I'm a nice middle class public schoolboy who underachieved and wasn't going anywhere fast. I didn't get any GCSEs or A-levels. But everyone was like: "Please, will you do something?" And I was thinking: "Well, I kind of like the idea of joining the French Foreign Legion."

Online dating is cool but I think Myspace and Facebook is a little bit off key.

I had a huge imagination. My granddad says I was a bit of a Walter Mitty character.

I love people. People are lovely creatures. I'm one myself, so I love to see people happy.

I think it's important that you always transform if you can. That's what I was trained to do. You try and hide yourself as much as you can - that's the key to longevity.
