I love cycling, but if I could find a way of building something above the streets for cyclists, that would be amazing. We need even more space.

'Downton Abbey' has become this huge thing, and I really enjoy the success of it, but I sometimes find myself on the outside looking in, which is sort of a healthy way to look at it so you don't get too caught up in it.
