Families have a sense of kinship that no four strangers would ever have as a team.
Bradley Walsh
‘The Chase’ is such a strong format and so simple to follow. The best quiz show formats are the simplest.
Bradley Walsh
I’m loving every second working with the brilliant Kayvan Novak; it’s a hoot from dawn to dusk!
Bradley Walsh
Time travel is a wonderful thing, isn’t it?
Bradley Walsh
I grew up listening to legends such as Sinatra, Sammy Davis Jr., and Tony Bennett.
Bradley Walsh
It’s just about being an entertainer; it’s about having all those tools over the years to do all sorts: films, musicals, playing a bit of piano, running a quiz show – it just becomes part of the job.
Bradley Walsh
Law & Order’ is a six-month shoot. Everything has to be crammed in. I had so much fun, but it wasn’t a holiday. We had seriously long days, and we’d finish at 8 P.M. and start again at 7 A.M. We were doing six-day weeks, which sometimes tripped onto the seventh. But I loved it all.
Bradley Walsh
I like people to have a bit of a laugh. Life is too short to not enjoy what you’re doing.
Bradley Walsh
I used to watch ‘Doctor Who’ as a child with William Hartnell and Pat Troughton in the black-and-white days, so being cast is brilliant.
Bradley Walsh
If I’m doing a job, I’ll give it 100%, and that job gets my absolute focus, and everything else goes to the side. Then, that job is finished, I’ll concentrate on the next job.
Bradley Walsh
On my tombstone it will say, ‘At last, a day off.’
Bradley Walsh
I don’t think I can plate-spin, I’ve turned loads of things down because I just can’t get the time to do it.
Bradley Walsh
Everyone’s got to have a bit of faith.
Bradley Walsh
I was a sheet metal worker, then a metal engineer, then a Pontin’s bluecoat, then a comedian. You can achieve anything you want if you put your mind to it.
Bradley Walsh
You never know what’s coming round the corner. There’s only one thing coming round the corner – more corners.
Bradley Walsh
I thought, as a kid, that I was The Doctor’s biggest fan, so my mum and dad bought me a battery-operated Dalek. I must have worn it out, I played with it so much.
Bradley Walsh
A lot of comics make good actors. Actors make bad comics. They can’t do it the other way round.
Bradley Walsh
I like Hawaiian pizza.
Bradley Walsh
Me and Stormzy. We’re gonna do an album. We’re gonna do an album of Nelson Riddle arrangements in grime form. It’s gonna be called ‘Griddle’.
Bradley Walsh
We’ve made it to the 1000th episode of ‘The Chase,’ as the show is so entertaining and informative. I’m so lucky I get to be a part of such a great team and have a laugh at work; I even learn some things, too.
Bradley Walsh
I don’t want to do the same thing all the time, and I was thrilled to bits to do a BBC comedy. It’s the home of British comedy.
Bradley Walsh
I love pirates, and I’m a big fan of the Johnny Depp films.
Bradley Walsh
I’m a man who doesn’t even have a mobile!
Bradley Walsh
The first real gig I went to was Randy Crawford in 1980. Seeing a big star like that was just fantastic.
Bradley Walsh
Don’t let anyone tell you that you’re not good enough. Don’t let anyone tell you that you’re too short, you’re too fat, you’re too thin, you’re too ugly – that’s nonsense.
Bradley Walsh
Stevie Wonder is extraordinary.
Bradley Walsh
I can’t dance to save my life, really – proper, proper dad dancing – but I was once at a wrap party for a show, and at the end of the night, they still hadn’t played ‘Dancing Queen’. So we extended the wrap party for 40 minutes and played ‘Dancing Queen’ 11 times in a row.
Bradley Walsh
I had spent so many years on ‘Law & Order: UK’ being a downtrodden detective standing on Hammersmith Bridge at six o’clock in the morning, being rained and snowed on, and I thought, ‘I’ll have a bit of a change of direction in my career and go and do ‘SunTrap’ in Gran Canaria.’
Bradley Walsh
That’s what I think a journalist from the ’70s and ’80s should look like – as though he has led a full journalistic life.
Bradley Walsh
Everyone’s path is different. It’s not always about money – sometimes it’s about the journey.
Bradley Walsh
Doing ‘SunTrap’ after ‘The Chase’ is dipping into something different. That’s the whole basis of what I wanted to do with my career. I didn’t want to do the same thing all the time.
Bradley Walsh
There’s no point doing a job where you’re uncomfortable or doing something you dislike.
Bradley Walsh
On ‘The Chase,’ I don’t know what questions are going to appear, so they deliberately try and catch me out.
Bradley Walsh
I thought Oasis were great.
Bradley Walsh
I am very flattered that so many people loved ‘Chasing Dreams.’
Bradley Walsh
I am probably the oldest new artist Sony has ever signed.
Bradley Walsh
I like something you can hum along to.
Bradley Walsh
I can’t listen to rap music; it’s not my thing. They say that they’re the modern poets: of course they are, but it’s not for me.
Bradley Walsh
All I ever wanted to do was play football. I was never one for revising, and I only left school with three O Levels.
Bradley Walsh
I said, ‘If I don’t play football for a living, I’m going to get into show business.’
Bradley Walsh
It’s a young man’s game – standup comedy.
Bradley Walsh
Every day I learn something new, and, you know, you go through life’s experiences, and if you can bring every experience at some point somewhere in every drama or every story that you have to portray, you will come across an emotion or a feeling you have had some point in your life.
Bradley Walsh
I’ve – to be honest with you, I’ve never had an acting lesson. But I’ve been at drama school for 50 years.
Bradley Walsh
Every person I see has a story to tell.
Bradley Walsh
I remember watching William Hartnell as the first ‘Doctor.’ Black and white made it very scary for a youngster like myself. I was petrified, but even though I’d watch most of it from behind the sofa through my fingers, I became a fan.
Bradley Walsh
Michael Kitchen is my favourite actor. We were at the same table at an awards once, and I was so thrilled, I had to go and sit next to him… he’s mesmeric.
Bradley Walsh
Normally, if I’ve got an audition, I’m punctual, I’ve learnt my lines, and I’ll go looking smart.
Bradley Walsh
The ‘Law & Order’ audition was so last-minute. I was already in a shabby suit, the journey was a complete disaster, my train stopped early, it was raining, and I had to show the cabbie the way… I rushed in apologising, gave this terrible reading, and ended up telling my whole journey to them. I must have bored them to tears.
Bradley Walsh
I’m the black sheep: I got into telly.
Bradley Walsh
The only time I scream is when I see the 5 A.M. start on the call sheet.
Bradley Walsh
Have you ever noticed when people stop laughing, they say, ‘Oh dear?’
Bradley Walsh
I’m so excited to be appearing in ‘Peter Pan.’ It really is an extraordinary production, the like of which Wembley has never seen before. It’s a big, bold arena extravaganza and festive treat with something for everyone.
