Iran is a bad and dangerous actor in a volatile region of the world, which is why Congress enacted sanctions in response to the ballistic missile program and support for terrorist proxy groups. We must hold senior Iranian leadership accountable for destabilizing actions in the region and around the world.

Concealed-carry reciprocity, I believe, undermines American gun laws by forcing states to accept carry-permitting standards of every other state, including some states that have no standards at all.

Illinois has commonsense regulations on concealed carry permits. For example, if you had two or more D.U.I.'s within five years, within the past five years, you do not have the right in Illinois to obtain a concealed weapons permit.

I used to watch 'Doctor Who' as a child with William Hartnell and Pat Troughton in the black-and-white days, so being cast is brilliant.

Families have a sense of kinship that no four strangers would ever have as a team.

If I'm doing a job, I'll give it 100%, and that job gets my absolute focus, and everything else goes to the side. Then, that job is finished, I'll concentrate on the next job.

On my tombstone it will say, 'At last, a day off.'

I don't think I can plate-spin, I've turned loads of things down because I just can't get the time to do it.

Everyone's got to have a bit of faith.

I was a sheet metal worker, then a metal engineer, then a Pontin's bluecoat, then a comedian. You can achieve anything you want if you put your mind to it.

You never know what's coming round the corner. There's only one thing coming round the corner - more corners.

I thought, as a kid, that I was The Doctor's biggest fan, so my mum and dad bought me a battery-operated Dalek. I must have worn it out, I played with it so much.

Time travel is a wonderful thing, isn't it?

A lot of comics make good actors. Actors make bad comics. They can't do it the other way round.

I like Hawaiian pizza.

Me and Stormzy. We're gonna do an album. We're gonna do an album of Nelson Riddle arrangements in grime form. It's gonna be called 'Griddle'.

We've made it to the 1000th episode of 'The Chase,' as the show is so entertaining and informative. I'm so lucky I get to be a part of such a great team and have a laugh at work; I even learn some things, too.

I don't want to do the same thing all the time, and I was thrilled to bits to do a BBC comedy. It's the home of British comedy.

I love pirates, and I'm a big fan of the Johnny Depp films.

I'm a man who doesn't even have a mobile!

'Law & Order' is a six-month shoot. Everything has to be crammed in. I had so much fun, but it wasn't a holiday. We had seriously long days, and we'd finish at 8 P.M. and start again at 7 A.M. We were doing six-day weeks, which sometimes tripped onto the seventh. But I loved it all.

The first real gig I went to was Randy Crawford in 1980. Seeing a big star like that was just fantastic.

Don't let anyone tell you that you're not good enough. Don't let anyone tell you that you're too short, you're too fat, you're too thin, you're too ugly - that's nonsense.

Stevie Wonder is extraordinary.

I can't dance to save my life, really - proper, proper dad dancing - but I was once at a wrap party for a show, and at the end of the night, they still hadn't played 'Dancing Queen'. So we extended the wrap party for 40 minutes and played 'Dancing Queen' 11 times in a row.

'The Chase' is such a strong format and so simple to follow. The best quiz show formats are the simplest.

I had spent so many years on 'Law & Order: UK' being a downtrodden detective standing on Hammersmith Bridge at six o'clock in the morning, being rained and snowed on, and I thought, 'I'll have a bit of a change of direction in my career and go and do 'SunTrap' in Gran Canaria.'

That's what I think a journalist from the '70s and '80s should look like - as though he has led a full journalistic life.

Everyone's path is different. It's not always about money - sometimes it's about the journey.

Doing 'SunTrap' after 'The Chase' is dipping into something different. That's the whole basis of what I wanted to do with my career. I didn't want to do the same thing all the time.

There's no point doing a job where you're uncomfortable or doing something you dislike.

On 'The Chase,' I don't know what questions are going to appear, so they deliberately try and catch me out.

I thought Oasis were great.

I am very flattered that so many people loved 'Chasing Dreams.'

I am probably the oldest new artist Sony has ever signed.

I like something you can hum along to.

I can't listen to rap music; it's not my thing. They say that they're the modern poets: of course they are, but it's not for me.

All I ever wanted to do was play football. I was never one for revising, and I only left school with three O Levels.

I said, 'If I don't play football for a living, I'm going to get into show business.'

It's just about being an entertainer; it's about having all those tools over the years to do all sorts: films, musicals, playing a bit of piano, running a quiz show - it just becomes part of the job.

I grew up listening to legends such as Sinatra, Sammy Davis Jr., and Tony Bennett.

It's a young man's game - standup comedy.

Every day I learn something new, and, you know, you go through life's experiences, and if you can bring every experience at some point somewhere in every drama or every story that you have to portray, you will come across an emotion or a feeling you have had some point in your life.

I've - to be honest with you, I've never had an acting lesson. But I've been at drama school for 50 years.

Every person I see has a story to tell.

I remember watching William Hartnell as the first 'Doctor.' Black and white made it very scary for a youngster like myself. I was petrified, but even though I'd watch most of it from behind the sofa through my fingers, I became a fan.

Michael Kitchen is my favourite actor. We were at the same table at an awards once, and I was so thrilled, I had to go and sit next to him... he's mesmeric.

Normally, if I've got an audition, I'm punctual, I've learnt my lines, and I'll go looking smart.

The 'Law & Order' audition was so last-minute. I was already in a shabby suit, the journey was a complete disaster, my train stopped early, it was raining, and I had to show the cabbie the way... I rushed in apologising, gave this terrible reading, and ended up telling my whole journey to them. I must have bored them to tears.

I like people to have a bit of a laugh. Life is too short to not enjoy what you're doing.
