Britain's Got Talent, Enormous Talent, That's Very Obvious.

I Remember Buying A Tr6 Sports Car For £6,000, And Funnily Enough It Gave Me More Pleasure Than The Porsche Ever Had.

I Genuinely Believed No One Would Want To Marry Me. I Am Difficult To Live With. I'm Selfish, Quite Weird And I Need Time On My Own To Think - And Then I Work All Night Long. That Is Difficult For Someone To Deal With. And It Would Drive Me Mad - I Could Never Be My Own Girlfriend!

I Look At Him [son Eric] And I Think Of My Dad All The Time.... I Was Born To Be A Dad.

I See This Moment As A Fantastic Opportunity To Restore This, Because I Believe Britain Has Talent.

What I Would Argue In My Defence Is That Shows Like Britain's Got Talent And The X Factor Have Actually Got People More Interested In Music Again And Are Sending More People Into Record Stores.

The Object Of This Competition Is Not To Be Mean To The Losers But To Find A Winner. The Process Makes You Mean Because You Get Frustrated. Kids Turn Up Unrehearsed, Wearing The Wrong Clothes, Singing Out Of Tune And You Can Either Say, "good Job" And Patronize Them Or Tell Them The Truth, And Sometimes The Truth Is Perceived As Mean.

It's Personalities, It's Conflict, It's All Of These Things That Actually Make Performers Interesting.

So I Would Only Feel Guilt If I Misled Somebody Who Was Terrible.

I'm A Great Believer In Getting Checked Out Because If You Know You're Ok, You Actually Feel Better; Your Mind Plays A Big Part Of It.

Music Should Always Be Polarizing. What One Person Likes, Somebody Else Hates. And I Hate That Kind Of Snobbery In Pop Music. The Fact That So Many People Are Getting Upset Over This One Song Is Hysterical. And If People Like It, That's Great.

No, What I Am Doing Is Kind By Telling People Who Are Useless, "do Something That You're Good At".
