It was sad leaving the BBC; not quite like being divorced, but you don't leave after a period stretching from 1960 to 1999 without feeling a certain number of pangs.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
It's a really weird thing, modern divorce. I found out I was getting divorced on television. That was kind of weird.
I felt bad to have to get divorced. I wasn't proud of that.
I am sorry to be leaving the BBC. I have enjoyed a fascinating seven years at the corporation and am particularly proud to have played a small part in the development of the BBC's Global News services, BBC World Service and BBC World.
I never thought I would be divorced.
My parents' divorce left me with a lot of sadness and pain and acting, and especially humour, was my way of dealing with all that.
When my dad divorced my mom it was kind of like him leaving me also.
I always took 'Coronation Street' a year at a time anyway. It was the 50th anniversary; I'd been there five years. It just felt right to leave.
People don't get married to get divorced. Maybe people weren't meant to be together forever.
I just loved being divorced from my own wretchedness.
Divorce was miserable, as it always is, and we divorce for the same reasons we marry.
