Quotes by Anthony Stewart Head

I don't know - just to be remembered would be pretty cool. Who knows what I have yet to do. So far I'm most proud of playing Frank N Furter in Rocky Horror. Also, a thing I did for the BBC called Spooks. A lovely show. I was very proud to be part of it.

I have a very open mind. I believe that there's a spirit world. I believe that there's a lot of stuff out there that we don't know about, don't want to understand, and sometimes we don't want to understand it.

I sang with a band and all that stuff, but I did make a choice at one point to favor acting as a career just because that seemed to be the way to go.

I think Giles' journey has been fascinating. I think that's what made it such a joy to play. The character was never static; you never knew what his deal was. And you still don't know what his deal is. The conflicts I was given to play are not soapy, they're not silly things or huge story arcs.

I've always resisted the idea of becoming a David Hasselhoff, and I hope I'm still resisting it.

My first job was a musical, and I had quite an interesting and varied career in the theatre and television long before the Gold Blend ad came along. I played leads at the National Theatre and all things. The Gold Blend ad gave me a profile which meant that when I wanted to travel to Hollywood, it just gave me a foot in the door - I was a recognizable face.

There is a warmth and generosity about Giles. If I met him in person I think that is what I would be attracted to. In terms of what I enjoy about playing him - the social ineptitude, and the intellect is great fun too as I don't have one!

We all sing about the things we're thinking; musicals are about expressing those emotions that you can't talk about. It works a real treat.
