Personal Quotes
"It strikes me as very unfair that Doctor Who has now had eight lives whereas the fans of Doctor Who haven't even got one."
"I'd probably declare war on Luxembourg. Not because they've done anything horrible, but because I just think we need a war we can win. For morale, for the young men who joined the forces, for the newspapers. Like the Falklands. An easy win where we can go: 'We creamed those guys.'"
