Most of my peers in television seem to be from a different planet. I don’t hang out with any of them.

I am an addictive personality.

Even my daughters know when I’m flipping.

Psychiatrists always say, Oh, we’re very professional. I use exercise as my medication.

I can be horrifically single-minded.

I suggest that instead of criticising us, the establishment has a bloody good look at itself.

If I’m sitting on the toilet and I’m looking at the grouting on the tiles, that grouting really gets me. Mothers have a thing about grouting.

There is a learning quality in all of our shows.

I don’t do game shows.

I suppose in London they all drink from the same watering holes.

If anybody says their facelift doesn’t hurt, they’re lying. It was like I’d spent the night with an axe murderer.

We see the people that have got stars in their eyes, but if you’ve really got what it takes, you can get from, say the beginnings, to the top in about five years.

I guess it’s the age group of students; You are questioning life. Then there are those who actually see their problems reflected in it.

I work very hard to keep on an even keel as far as alcohol is concerned.

Have you seen U2’s live show? It’s boring as hell. It’s like watching CNN.

I find myself thinking: Oh God, now what? I always have to have a new plan, otherwise I get very, very bored.

I had the shakes, I had double vision, I had convulsions. But I didn’t want to be on antidepressants while I was doing the show.

I’ll get into a pattern where I start sleeping only between 12 and 3.30, and go for weeks like that.

Britain leads the way in fund raising. I am so proud of Britain.

It was only literally hours after the wedding when he felt he didn’t have to keep up the facade.

I had this stereotypical view that black people apart from me probably threw stones and lived in huts.

I’ll get up in the morning while they’ve all got hangovers and run my 5 miles. But the women who do run are usually 10 years younger than me and they’re really obsessed about running....

I want it to be remembered that Ozzy was the first celebrity who was brave enough to open up his private life to the public. He was the first.

I know I can get to the stage where I’m drinking a lot. I tend to be rotten and groggy all day and hanging out for the next drink and five o’clock, ping! I have...

I’m pushing the positive mental health message in a very populist way; some people just don’t get that or feel uncomfortable with it.

I’m very lucky in that I have a good cosmetic surgeon.

I speak to people who have been through so much more.

If you are in the job for glamour, you’re in for the shock of your life. The media is a huge shark pool.

Your gut is always right.

Why don’t you compare me to Sally Jessy Raphael?

If you go to most third world countries, the older woman dispenses advice to the arguing couple while other members of the family, or even the village, sit around and listen. It is no big...

Because my father was a psychiatric nurse, I know my way around the system.

Somebody like me wouldn’t have gone on to the Trisha show because I already had a public profile.

It is ridiculous that somebody picks up the phone and calls somebody they see on television. Why don’t they call somebody in their area? Don’t they know about that?

I am a smiling depressive.

Daddy loves you, but he smacks you, and he can shout at you and smash things, but Daddy still loves you. So when you get into a relationship with someone who does all of that,...
