I like people to have a bit of a laugh. Life is too short to not enjoy what you're doing.

That's what I think a journalist from the '70s and '80s should look like - as though he has led a full journalistic life.

I can't dance to save my life, really - proper, proper dad dancing - but I was once at a wrap party for a show, and at the end of the night, they still hadn't played 'Dancing Queen'. So we extended the wrap party for 40 minutes and played 'Dancing Queen' 11 times in a row.

I was earning a living. I was getting into more acting, then 'Coronation Street' came along, and it was the chance of a lifetime.

I said, 'If I don't play football for a living, I'm going to get into show business.'

I've - to be honest with you, I've never had an acting lesson. But I've been at drama school for 50 years.

I am very flattered that so many people loved 'Chasing Dreams.'

I only got into show business because I quit football.

I first started as an actor, but there was no money in it, which is why I drifted into comedy.

It's a young man's game - standup comedy.

I don't want to do the same thing all the time, and I was thrilled to bits to do a BBC comedy. It's the home of British comedy.

If I'm doing a job, I'll give it 100%, and that job gets my absolute focus, and everything else goes to the side. Then, that job is finished, I'll concentrate on the next job.
