Quotes

• “I'll never stop working. I want to die in the saddle. A day is wasted for me if I haven't done something even mildly creative.”
• “I saw a specialist who asked me 'Are you familiar with the phrase faecal impaction?'. I said I think I saw that one with Glenn Close and Michael Douglas.”
• “When I said I was going to become a comedian, they all laughed. Well, they're not laughing now, are they?”
• “I'd like to die like my old dad, peacefully in his sleep, not screaming like his passengers.”
• “People who hadn't noticed me, or who had written me off as a game show host, started to reassess me. There were people who hadn't seen me as a stand-up artist and liked it. Suddenly I was in fashion again.”
• “The last time I was in Spain I got through six Jeffrey Archer novels. I must remember to take enough toilet paper next time.”
