But there`s a very limited pool of finance in the UK. To be honest, it`s a very clubby kind of place. In Hollywood there`s a great openness, almost a voracious appetite for new people. In England there`s a great suspicion of the new. In cultural terms, th...

I have a home in LA and one in London. The be honest, I spend most of my time in LA. The past 14 months, I`ve only been in the UK for about 15 days and probably about 2 months in LA. There`s not that much filming goes on there so you end up going all over...

If you look at how most artistic beginnings have been greeted in this country [UK], I`m in very good company. I know I`m a bigger target as long as I`m seen as a Hollywood movie star instead of as an actor of the theater, even an artistic director. They d...

I buy American music as it`s like the last bastion of music. I sound like an old bastard but that`s how I feel. I listen to people like Sting or George Michael from the UK and Missy Elliot from the US - they`re people that you know care about the music.
Luke Goss
I`m an easy target, especially nowadays. You`d be hard pressed to find many in the media or the music business who`ll own up to liking me and my music. Especially in the UK. Although I have met a lot of R&B singers in the States who are very kind about wh...

Peter Mandelson, two times thrown out, is now representing Britain in Europe. In the olden times, they would have hung him up by his feet. The decisions in the UK are made by President Tony Blair and a couple of his cooks in the kitchen.
Sean Connery
In the UK now you can have a hit record by selling 20 records. It`s a cliche but it is like the fast food industry. There are so many brilliant artists out there but in the UK they aren`t being signed. I know the Pop Idol thing is big but the turnover is ...

I always look back on Home & Away with fondness, especially when I`m in the UK. But I had no idea what I was doing back then. I just fell into acting. It was only later that I became passionate about it.
Julian McMahon
When you are on tour in the UK it takes a few hours to get anywhere. A lot of the time you can have a beer, close your eyes for two minutes, and then you are there. In the U.S. it is much more like a road trip as all the cities are so spread apart.
Kelly Jones
Well, you cannot think of cinema now, and you cannot think of cinema in the UK and not place Chaplin in the most extraordinary elevated context, if there can be such a thing, in that he was a genius, he was unique.
Richard Attenborough
We`re obviously going for an integration that hasn`t been done before. Some work on integration going on with particular pieces in Canada, the US and my old group in the UK but we`re taking a bigger slice now.
Mark Wallace
We like to think that`s because West Midlands is the leader in open source in the UK. One of the things that`s nice is that there are a number of companies here doing pioneering work with open source.
Paul Cooper
We have to think carefully about which languages those are. French, for example, is declining as an international language, but Spanish, Mandarin and Arabic are all languages of the future. Ethnic minority groups in the UK may well prove to be a major ass...
Anthony Parsons
We have such a high drop-out rate from musicians, said the head of the college. He was right - I dropped out before I even dropped in. Months later they were still asking what had happened to me, not realising that I was on a UK tour.
Holly Johnson
We have received numerous requests for the book from the UK and India and we hope to announce the release dates in those countries within this week.
Alexander Frolov
UK banks provide a crucial service to the community and our economic security depends on them. Amicus is calling on National Australia to reverse this decision.
Aslam Khan
Today, as a result, over 3 million jobs in the UK are linked, directly and indirectly, to the export of goods and services to the European Union.
Alison Mau
This is a momentous case. The UK is at an important crossroads. It can reaffirm its stand against torture, which is absolutely banned, or slide towards illegality by its tacit acceptance that torture is sometimes OK.
Arthur Reingold
This balanced report gives a wonderful opportunity to introduce a measure to benefit all UK women of child-bearing age and their families.
Andrew Russell
The sponsorship of Manchester City has proved a great success as it reinforces our position as one of the UK`s best-known brand names. Manchester City supporters have also benefited from thousands of pounds in savings on holidays.
Andy Southerland
The record was only released in the UK, and then when the idea for the remixed album came about, which was an idea that I`ve had for the longest time, I said this would be great song to remix as well, and so we did it.

The Civil Service is a vital economic asset to the UK - firstly, in the way it creates a framework for excellence in service delivery and secondly, in how it helps organise the best way to deliver modern public services on which both businesses and indivi...

The biggest markets for my books outside the UK are France and Italy, and those are the two countries where I also have the closest personal relationships with my translators - I don`t know whether that`s a coincidence, or if there`s something to be learn...
