Telly and films has been my thing, not necessarily by choice, and if the right piece of theatre came along, I would jump at it.
Darren Boyd

I never did that badly with women when I wasn't on telly, but it's a bit out of control now. Women try it on with me more than I'm comfortable with. It's strange, because I think I look like a troll wearing a woman's wig backwards.

What's always got me is the fact that when people talked on the telly about Iraq, before Afghanistan kicked off, you'd get only these public-school-type army officers talking about what was going on out there. I kept thinking, 'Why don't we get the true voice of the squaddie? Why don't we hear from the lads on the battlefield?'

I want to be involved in things I can be really proud of. There's a lot of bad films being made and I don't understand how they got the money for it. That said, there's a lot of bad telly, but there's also a lot of very high quality that is something I'd be much more proud of than a mediocre film.

I hate the idea that I have to represent any particular section of society I just write good telly, that's all.
Russell T Davies

I haven't really got much get up and go. I can't believe I'm on the telly. I'm so lazy.
Allen Carr

I'd hate to be really beautiful on telly and then have everyone go, 'It's all make-up and lighting.
Sophie McShera

I like to get up and get out. Otherwise you end up kicking about, and it's easy to flick the telly on then before you know it, it is 11 A.M. and you haven't done anything.

So I said to this train driver I want to go to Paris. He said Eurostar?. I said I've been on telly but I'm no Dean Martin.
Tommy Cooper

I choose YouTube over telly.
Cory Doctorow

I don't normally watch myself on the telly.
Frank Bruno

I am a chef who happens to appear on the telly, that's it.
Gordon Ramsay

I like making films about old people because they are repositories of amazing stories that they tell well. And they're incredibly good telly.
Ian Hislop

I always think I should try to get to bed early, but then I can't stop myself from watching telly and fiddling around on the net.
Jenson Button

And people are so het up about the fact I'm in the theatre - it's like, 'Ooh these telly names, can they be any good?' I came out of RADA and my first job was at the National Theatre, but everyone wonders if I can cope. It makes me laugh.

It's not easy for you, Dad You seek your own space You slope off to watch telly But still see (Mom's Mum's Mam's) face

If I cry on telly, I'm genuinely crying. If it's a gritty scene it can come naturally.
Kelvin Fletcher
Image
I wouldn't want to leave it so long before doing a play again, I get very stolid and sluggish if I do too much telly.
Matthew Macfadyen
Image
I don't watch a huge amount of telly. I read a lot. I'm reading at the moment 'Freedom,' by Jonathan Franzen, a great big brick of a book, and I'm loving it.

This is no time for drinking a mug of water - which you would do nowhere else in the world. A mug of water! You just don't drink water from mugs, do ya? Except on the telly. Water out of a mug! Should be a hot drink... mug of water.
Russell Brand

I was very inventive. I lived in my own world - my dad said I was a loner. Not lonely, just happy in my own company. It's the same now. I need time alone, which is maybe why I love to write. Having said that, I love the sociability of telly. It's a nice contrast.
Alan Titchmarsh

But I quite like that the public has a very short attention span. If I haven't been on telly for a little bit, I can sense it. People don't take as much notice of you, it's really quite palpable.
Sophie Ellis Bextor

I was playing in the juniors at Wimbledon I forgot to turn my mobile phone off. It was lying there in my bag and it rang in the middle of a match, and it was one of my friends from school saying, 'Murray, you're on the telly!' I learnt from that. I now put my phone on silent.
