I don't get recognized much, and am very happy with that. The fans I have met have all been delightful.

I'm terribly attention-seeking. It's very different once you get all this attention, though. Because then you want to control it. And you can't exactly.

I had a very happy childhood, but I wasn't that happy a child. I liked being alone and creating characters and voices. I think that's when your creativity is developed, when you're young. I liked the world of the imagination because it was an easy place to go to.

When you get the respect of the fans, it's very hard not to be happy.

Fantastic, I am very happy to be the fastest 800 metres runner in the world.

TV has lost a lot of its self-confidence as its power has been eroded by the internet.
