My idea of relaxation is not lying down by a beach. I have to move around, do stuff. Though I'm a massive quiz show person.

I think what makes 'Jeopardy!' special is that, among all the quiz and game shows out there, ours tends to encourage learning.

There's no point in doing an intelligent quiz with me sitting opposite Kerry Katona.

You look across the board at comedy quiz shows, and they are mainly hosted by men.

Redford always has been a cool presence both before and behind the camera. His best movie as a filmmaker, 1994's 'Quiz Show,' exhibits a classicism verging on self-repression, and the social indignation in many of his films engages more than moves you.

Basically, I like research because research is like to solve the quiz, you know. Always there is a problem, and I have to solve the problem. So I like those patterns. It's almost like research is sort of in a quiz.

Fortunately, human forgetting follows a pattern. We forget exponentially. A graph of our likelihood of getting the correct answer on a quiz sweeps quickly downward over time and then levels off.

It's just about being an entertainer; it's about having all those tools over the years to do all sorts: films, musicals, playing a bit of piano, running a quiz show - it just becomes part of the job.

When I was at uni, our whole college bar would gather around the quiz machine for a few games every night.
