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.

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

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

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.'

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

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.

Stevie Wonder is extraordinary.

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.

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

'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.

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

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

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.

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.

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'.

I like Hawaiian pizza.

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

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

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.

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

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.

Everyone's got to have a bit of faith.

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.

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