It's sad when you see most of your friends in the business gone, like Tommy Cooper, Frankie Howard, Eric Morecambe, Roy Castle, Les Dawson. They were very dear to me. You no longer have the chance to bump into them at a celebrity do.

More quotes by Bruce Forsyth
Lots of people come up to me and call me Sir Bruce now. Interviewers call me Sir with every question, but I never make a point of making people call me Sir. It doesn't matter to me, though it was a great honour to be knighted. I'm very proud of it.

I have no plans to rock myself to sleep in my bath chair yet.
Bruce Forsyth
Once you've experienced the warmth of an audience, the achievement of getting your first laugh, and entertaining them, singing or playing piano, it just keeps it all going.
Bruce Forsyth
If I couldn't move, I don't know what I would do. That would be terrifying for me I don't know how I'd cope with that.
Bruce Forsyth
Just doing any kind of work - even an interview for breakfast television - makes me feel happy.
Bruce Forsyth
I love getting on You Tube to look at the old comics. I am in my element seeing guys like Jack Benny and Phil Silvers give interviews.
Bruce Forsyth
Little did I know that there's nothing more competitive in the world than a professional ballroom dancer. They are as competitive as Olympic athletes.
Bruce Forsyth

Nice to see you, to see you nice
Bruce Forsyth
It may be an old cliche, but I think true love will last it has no end. But finding the right person is a very difficult thing.
Bruce Forsyth
They do say, the smaller the feet, the better the dancer.
Bruce Forsyth
I'm not even really a joke-teller. I can do ad-lib and banter, but I don't do jokes.
Bruce Forsyth
I don't do close-ups any more. I am better looking from the waist downwards.
Bruce Forsyth
If I go out one night, I must stay in the next. It's the same with my golf. If I play one day, I don't play the next. I try to pace myself.
Bruce Forsyth
People think I rush around all day long like a raving lunatic. I'm much more relaxed than that.
Bruce Forsyth
I met my darling wife Wilnelia in 1980 when we were on the judging panel for the Miss World contest at the Royal Albert Hall. With two ex-wives and five daughters, I thought I wouldn't be involved with anyone for a long time - if ever. Winnie was so gorgeous, my jaw dropped - and it's a big jaw to drop.
Bruce Forsyth
The secret to a happy marriage is if you can be at peace with someone within four walls, if you are content because the one you love is near to you, either upstairs or downstairs, or in the same room, and you feel that warmth that you don't find very often, then that is what love is all about.
Bruce Forsyth
Not working is bad for you. It is my drug, it gives me a high most performers will tell you that. And there is nothing like the high that an audience gives you.
Bruce Forsyth
That Mick Jagger, I feel sorry for him. After all these years he still can't get no satisfaction.
Bruce Forsyth
I read a lot when I'm away. I love courtroom dramas and I'm always looking for new authors.
