wave clean
The waves of time wash us all clean.
father thinking oxford
I could, I think, quite easily have gone to Oxford. I got four good A levels, but my father's income was such that I wouldn't have got a grant, and he wouldn't let me go to university, and that was the end of it.
years space people
I would still like to go up in the space shuttle. It's appalling that the accident happened, but it was an accident and obviously if I knew there was any risk, I'd be foolish to do it. I'd love to stand outside the Earth and look at it. Extraordinary feeling that, something that we've been tied to for millions of years, and a handful of people have looked at it, to be able to do that would be stunning.

I never have reservations about doing anything as long as I'm being paid.

I am a big man, but I've allowed my condition to deteriorate by being overweight.

I like challenges that test your ingenuity.

It's not so much a thankless task, it's more a job with no thanks
forever sausage vices
I do adore food. If I have any vice it's eating. If I was told I could only eat one food for the rest of my life, I could put up with sausage and mash forever.
brain efficiency human-brain
Small though it is, the human brain can be quite effective when working at full efficiency, not unlike myself!

New Geeks visit pubs, clubs and bars more than twice as often as the average person, ... (A) new, more chic geek has emerged from the bedroom.
asked
I haven't been approached to do a 'Doctor Who' movie. I think they would be scraping the bottom of the barrel if they asked me to do it.
