Don't get me started on BBC salaries. We were never the big league. Situation comedy has always been the poor relation in the television entertainment business.

I will continue to entertain the great British public. Because that is what I love doing.

In this business, you have to have what they call an idiotic determination to succeed.

I was a very shy sort of person, and by acting different characters, I could immerse myself and make them do what, perhaps, I wouldn't do.

I think 'Mrs. Brown's Boys' in particular is very good, though I do find that perhaps the language is a bit strong for a family, but it is very popular, and I think it's very funny.

I grew up in London, a city devastated by the bombing. I am, you might say, a Blitz Baby.

You wouldn't want me to play Frost in a wheelchair, would you? 'Frost' is getting a little long in the tooth. I still enjoy doing it, and it's a great part, but I just think he's got to retire.

A lot of TV has moved away from family viewing. But with 'The Royal Bodyguard,' we have tried to make a show when no one will be worried about sitting there with their kids or their grandma.

I want to encourage young people to get up off the sofa and get out there - as long as you want something hard enough, you can do it.

Journalists are out to trap me with my underwear showing.
