Quote

My heart's in stage. Making Quadrophenia was exciting because we were riding around on scooters with no crash helmets. But hurry up and wait is the anthem of films. Everybody wants you ready, and then you sit doing nothing.

In my game, you get brokenhearted a bit. You do a play, get a bad review in the papers... actors are sensitive you think of all the work you've done, and it breaks your heart, but you learn to shrug it off and to carry on.

I get on with actors, and when I'm doing a theatre show, it's great being with them all the time. But we're all alike, and it's much nicer being with people who are different.

My philosophy is to enjoy yourself. Do the things you want to do, like play golf!
Phil Daniels

I found that golf saved me from going to the pub every day so instead I play golf with other unemployed actors. I'm a member of the Stage Golfing Society and I play golf with all sorts of people.

I like people like Robert De Niro and Anthony Hopkins. And Gianfranco Zola, who played for Chelsea and Italy. He's an artist with his feet.

I had a weimaraner for 11 years called China, and he was a great dog, a bit mad. They're massive, weimaraners they've got big floppy ears. They look like a pointer, but they're liver-coloured.

I grew up near King's Cross station in London, living in an apartment block where my dad was a caretaker.

It's never gone so far as me wishing I'd never done 'Quadrophenia,' but there was a time when I wouldn't talk about it because I wanted people to be interested in me for other things as well.

Being a part-time pop star was perfect, really, when I wasn't worn out by the partying.
