I had a good upbringing, we didn't have any money, but there was a lot of love in my family.

I wasn't a bad kid. My dad left when I was young, so I didn't have much discipline, not that I'm making excuses. I was always out and about and had a good time as a kid, so I've done alright.

There are a lot of bitter people out there who have got jobs that they hate and the key to life for me is doing something you love doing.

I had a strong, really good upbringing, not puritanical.

I do walk with a bit of a swagger. I do swear a lot. And people are going to be offended by that. But in this PC world, you can't be honest.

I don't think you can get any more working class than me. Everyone seems posh to me.
