I don't like it when celebrities get voice work. But then again, if I was the producer, I wouldn't want a bunch of no-names doing my show and have to worry about word-of-mouth. I see both sides of the story.

I've never let producers tell me what to do. Even when I was making television, I always did what I wanted to do, and if I couldn't, I didn't do it. It was a freedom that, these days, young directors starting out don't have.

When you're your own producer, you do the most ridiculous, insane things.

I think that no one, or very few, are born as good presenters. It's a skill that you learn.

Celador always ask me to do their shows, and I turned down 'Millionaire.' I couldn't have done it as well as Chris Tarrant, or at least I couldn't have done it any better.

I couldn't care less about being a presenter at the Oscars.

I'm a presenter.

For a long time, my shows were about people walking out or about getting my gigs canceled or having the presenter not wanting to pay me.

Let me tell you about being executive producer. It is not a job, it's a title. Don't go around asking executive producers what they do because they don't do anything, alright?

So I became a producer because I knew one of the reasons was they didn't do them the way I thought was right.
