“With an audience it's now, there are no editors around. It's just me a...” — Rik Mayall Quote

With an audience it's now, there are no editors around. It's just me and the audience and it's what I like best.

Bring me another bad one, and I shall protect my British people - I brought down Thatcher to protect my people, and I'm bringing down Tony to defend them, and I'll be there for any other dangers that come along.

It's difficult for me, to look into eyes of a journalist and trust him to present it as you say.

When you're an experienced celeb - which I am - you sometimes just need a bit of space, when you're not 'on'. I'm always on!

I would love to do more on the stage; having actual contact with the audience is great. You can give them a good seeing to!

I trust it will not be giving away professional secrets to say that many readers would be surprised, perhaps shocked, at the questions which some newspaper editors will put to a defenseless woman under the guise of flattery.

I happen to have a public profile. Ditto newspaper editors. It's a result of what I do, not an end.

Forty years ago, we were on the tail of the Front Page era. There was a different point of view. Reporters and editors were more forgiving of public people. They didn't think they had to stick someone in jail to make a career.

Digg is like your newspaper, but rather than a handful of editors determining what's on the front page, the masses do.
