The only distinction I'd make is between film and telly, I guess. "Film," "movies," and "cinema" are all synonyms as far as I'm concerned; but telly is different. It's just a plodding we've-done-this-scene, we've-done-that-scene and it never becomes this new other thing.
I like making films about old people because they are repositories of amazing stories that they tell well. And they're incredibly good telly.
It's not easy for you, Dad You seek your own space You slope off to watch telly But still see (Mom's Mum's Mam's) face
I am a chef who happens to appear on the telly, that's it.
A celebrity now is someone who's on the telly.
I watch schlock telly. Like the 'Kardashians. ' I love it. It's my guilty pleasure.
I love doing stand-up. It's so self-contained - you go there, you do it, you go home - but with telly, there are too many people involved with it with opinions. You have a product, and everyone wants to change it.
I always think I should try to get to bed early, but then I can't stop myself from watching telly and fiddling around on the net.
It takes time and energy, and if I'm working, then I'd rather flop in front of the telly than put on a tiny dress and work out how to get myself to God knows where. I mean, lazy some would call it.
Theatre has always been better disposed to colourblind casting than telly or film. Given that most television is contemporary, and it reaches 56 million people, I am disappointed there still isn't more representation.
A BOOK?! WHAT D'YOU WANNA FLAMING BOOK FOR?. . . WE'VE GOT A LOVELY TELLY WITH A 12-INCH SCREEN AND NOW YA WANNA BOOK!
'Doctor Who' was my first telly job, and before that I did a lot of theatre in education, children's theatre.
I wouldn't want to leave it so long before doing a play again, I get very stolid and sluggish if I do too much telly.
The more telly you do, the more it feels like a factory.
I don't normally watch myself on the telly.
Middle-aged women on telly is a bit of a hot topic - before, we were 27 to 37, and now we're 40 to 50. You do notice as you get older. . . you go past 35, and suddenly you're playing baddies.
I guess they have to label someone the sexiest person in the world, and it is always someone who is on telly even if it’s the weatherman. For a couple of years it was me and then it was someone else. It’s nicer being the sexiest man than the most ugly man. I live with it, and I don’t mind it, but I don’t go around with a big smile on my face everyday.
I haven't really got much get up and go. I can't believe I'm on the telly. I'm so lazy.
I was playing in the juniors at Wimbledon I forgot to turn my mobile phone off. It was lying there in my bag and it rang in the middle of a match, and it was one of my friends from school saying, 'Murray, you're on the telly!' I learnt from that. After that I always put my phone on silent.
But I quite like that the public has a very short attention span. If I haven't been on telly for a little bit, I can sense it. People don't take as much notice of you, it's really quite palpable.
