THEY SAID WHAT?

-

“It will take more than a royal yacht to restore Britain’s global reputation” - Liberal Democrat MP Tom Brake on a proposal by some Tories to have a lottery to finance a new royal yacht.

“It’s much faster now. And I’m older, so my memory’s not as good. I’m not as up to speed as I could be. Sometimes you’re walking about with 16 scripts in your hand and flitting between all of them. It’s relentless and dealing with it is a skill in itself” - actress Tamzin Outhwaite, who is returning to EastEnders after a 16-year absence.

“Going to the movies has become like a theme park. Studios making bad content in order to appeal to the masses and shareholde­rs is like fracking - you get the best return right now but you wreck the earth” - actress Jodie Foster, below.

“I am there to be a judge. I know I get tarred with the ‘Mr Nasty’ judge on this show but there always has to be a Mr Nasty” - Jason Gardiner a judge on the Dancing on Ice TV show.

“We could use a little bit of that good old Global Warming that our Country, but not other countries, was going to pay TRILLIONS OF DOLLARS to protect against” - US President Donald Trump tweets as extreme cold hits part of the United States.

“Some Twitter troll has accused me of being condescend­ing. I’m surprised he knows how to spell the word” - broadcaste­r Gyles Brandreth.

“I think it is very, very sad that people deliberate­ly go out to see a pantomime to look for things that offend them. Why don’t they stay at home?” - actor Christophe­r Biggins, the doyen of pantomime dames.
