I cringe when I watch myself on TV.

Usually, watching yourself is pretty awful. People think we all love watching our own films. We don't. We cringe away from it.

I hate watching myself on screen. I can't stand it.

I often don't see what I've done, or I cringe when I watch myself.

It is really awkward to see myself on screen.

I can't stand to see myself act. It just makes me cringe.

Watching yourself on screen is always a little weird, but I didn't cringe when I saw myself on 'The Hour.' It actually exceeded my expectations; every shot looks like a vintage postcard and even my most brutally honest friends have said they think it's good.

I hate watching myself on film because I am so judgmental.

It really costs me a lot emotionally to watch myself on screen. I think of myself, and feel like I'm quite young, and then I look at this old man with the baggy chins and the tired eyes and the receding hairline and all that.

Usually when I see myself in a film or on television, there's about a six-month period where I can't look at it because all I'll see are the mistakes. I'm just appalled by the person that I see.
