I'm apolitical. Where all that Conservative business came along from, I don't know.

I like being in charge of the remote control.

When I was put up in posh hotels, I thought it was wonderful.

If I'm in a rotten mood, I stay in and watch television.

I knew I could do anything I wanted to do and go anywhere I wanted to go and not have to worry if I could afford it.

I don't want to see a 70-year-old on television.

I always wanted to be a star.

Turning 70 was a real shock. I thought, 'I'm on the last lap now.'

I never liked miming.

Really, I'm trying to retire. It's just nobody will let me!
