If I was prime minister for a day the first thing I would do would be to close the border. Then we could work out how many people we've got here. Then you get people out who have committed crimes and you look at others who shouldn't be here. Nobody knows how many people we've got here.
There are too many organisations - and the BBC is a fabulous organisation - that seem to think it's OK to badger, hector and threaten people.
I worked for the BBC for 30 years.
Reality shows have caused fatigue amongst the public.
We've sussed that we've paid all this money to watch ourselves entertain ourselves. We have more members of the public on TV than on C&A's CCTV.
Belief and trust in the power of the Cosmos gives even the most chaotic life a new sense of order and purpose.
I think too many people take life too seriously. I'm having a ball!
I spent a lot of Saturday night on BBC television, being chased around by yellow rubber balls.
I'm the last person to claim that I'm sane.
You don't do everything in life in order to make money.
Believe it or not, I'm actually quite a private person.
What's the point of life if we can't be positive, have fun and make the world a better place?
I always have a giggle.
Water can communicate. It's communicating with us, it's communicating with other water.
We must never forget that the cosmos exists solely to help those who want to help themselves. It is an incredibly powerful force and a wonderful friend for all who adopt a positive approach to life.
I am not living in the past.
I don't really like those houses where someone's put up all their old football trophies and whatever; you know, what are they trying to prove?
Contrary to the image of a neurotic man created in some quarters, I feel very much at peace with myself.
I'm very good at compartmentalising my life. I did motor-racing for a while, stopped, didn't miss it. I did power-boat racing for a while, stopped, didn't miss it. I had such a good run at the BBC. I had a hell of a CV with arguably the greatest broadcasting organisation in the world. But I've never missed it since.
If I'm demanding and have high standards, I'm happy about that.
