'Playing Doctor Who came as a great surprise to me. I had no idea that I would enjoy it so much. All that was required of me was to be able to speak complete gobbledygook with conviction.'

'Not everybody knows that looking at people in 'a funny way' is the commonest cause of sudden murder. I happen to know that because I read a Home Office brochure once.'

From LB;
'Britain, or scum, as we are affectionately known abroad.'

'Thank the Lord, who incidentally is British, for the great things he has brought to this land. Take-a-break, Spearmint Rhino and Finders crispy pancakes.'

'Everybody is welcome in Britain, we are open 9 till 6, Monday to Saturday. No foreign gentlemen please.'
