• Fake is not a word I like to use because there's nothing fake about what I do.  It's a show, it's a predetermined outcome; we're putting on a television drama, action, comedy, whatever you want to call it - but it's not fake.  Fake would be if I was just about to take a body slam, and my stuntman did it.  Fake would be if I was going to take a chair shot to the head, and the chair was made of rubber.  I'll tell the world that it's a show, but I hate the word fake.  It's such an unfair term to us.

• It’s what non-car people don’t get. They see all cars as just a ton and a half, two tons of wires, glass, metal, and rubber, and that’s all they see. People like you or I know we have an unshakable belief that cars are living entities… You can develop a relationship with a car and that’s what non-car people don’t get… When something has foibles and won’t handle properly, that gives it a particularly human quality because it makes mistakes, and that’s how you can build a relationship with a car that other people won’t get.

• There are three versions of the hook. There's one that's solid metal and it's really heavy. It's sharp. It's not super sharp but it has a point, and because of the weight you could do some serious damage with it. And then there's an aluminium one which is a bit lighter, and then there's a rubber one for if you're to do stunts or there's any danger of cutting someone. Although sometimes I like to switch it out! It's the perfect coffee cup holder - it's literally the exact size. And if you've only got one hand and you're holding some food, it's great to put it on.

• No more cutting grams, and wrapping grands up in rubber-bands,

  I'm as determined as them old timers.
