More quotes by Anthea Turner
Often, there is a job - say, for a voiceover or an appearance - and you think: 'Blimey!' From the outside it would seem like you are being paid a lot for a short amount of your time. It would be inappropriate to share how much they pay, but in the industry we call it 'doing a bank raid'. Unfortunately, those jobs do not happen every week.

Of course, we all have to be taxed, but once you start to earn more than £150,000, and start paying 45 per cent tax, you are penalised. It is like a witch hunt.

The late 1990s were good to me. I was doing the Lottery, GMTV and I had a good contract with ITV. But I was working so hard, I never had time to celebrate. I never thought I was lucky.
Anthea Turner
I had started working in television but it did not pay that much. I was 27, renting this little one-bed flat in Shepherd's Bush, West London, with a bathroom so small only someone of my size could actually get in it.

There's no getting away from it: you have to clean.

Those who earn money know best how to spend it.
Anthea Turner
I grew up in a world before people had credit cards. There were no magic cards - it was all about budgeting.
Anthea Turner
We should be encouraging people to earn a lot of money. I do not know one wealthy person who does not spend money - and most of them employ other people.
Anthea Turner
Maybe, instead of paying so much in tax, the very rich could be incentivised to help their local community and young people who do not have a home.

Divorce is the biggest drain, outside of school fees, and nobody wins. People think it is always in the woman's favour, but it is not necessarily.

A lot of people live in a property that will one day be part of their pension, and that is true for me too. I have an investment I can sell with ease.
