I Want To Express Myself In A

I Enjoy Racing Historic Motorcars From The '50s And '60s. The Seed Of My Interest Was Planted When I Was About 12 Years Old And Took Over My Mother's Morris Minor. I Drove It Around My Father's Farm. But My Favorite Car Is Still A Mclaren F1, Which I Have Had For 10 Years.

The Problem With Maigret Is He Hasn't Got A Limp, And He Hasn't Got A Lisp, And He Hasn't Got A French Accent, Or A Particular Love Of Opera... Or All Those Other Things That People Tend To Attach To Many Fictional Detectives. He's Just An Ordinary Guy Doing An Extraordinary Job, In A Very Interesting Time.

I Think I Have An Inner Confidence That My Tastes Are Pretty Simple, That What I Find Funny Finds A Wide Audience. I'm Not Particularly Intellectual Or Clever Or Minority-focused In My Creative Instincts. And I'm Certainly Not Aware Of Suppressing More Sophisticated Ambitions.

It Certainly Helps, I Think, With Some Actors To Understand The Process Of Acting. You See What Extraordinary Pressure They're Under, There's A Huge Circus Dedicated To A Particular Moment And They're Got To Deliver And It Can Help That You, Even If Empathetically Alone, Understand What They're Doing.

Apart From The Fact That Your Physical Ability Starts To Decline, I Also Think Someone In Their Fifties Being Childlike Becomes A Little Sad. You've Got To Be Careful.
