People think I appear on television to promote my image. That's not fair. I hate filming. I turned down 'Strictly Come Dancing.' But television is a wonderful opportunity to promote scientific ideas. 'Super Doctors' is a very thoughtful piece.

Robert Winston

I've been offered all the usual, 'Strictly Come Dancing' and the like, but the one thing I know is that for me to be good, I've got to absolutely love doing something. And you can't dance the foxtrot half-hearted.

Andrew Flintoff

The Dancing Girls of Lahore was offered to dozens of British publishers and was turned down by everyone. It is still on offer in the U.K., but I'm not confident there will be any takers.

Louise Brown

When I was at UCLA, the Harlem Globetrotters offered me a million dollars to come play for them. I turned it down because my education was just as important as playing ball.

Kareem Abdul-Jabbar

I did have to turn down things in the past, which I was upset about sometimes, but I understood I was part of 'Strictly Come Dancing.'

A. J. Pritchard

I was offered a lot of reality shows in the past. I continue to be offered things like 'The Surreal Life.' I did one in 2002, right after the attacks on the World Train Center. It was called 'Celebrity Bootcamp.' It sounded exciting and cool when they presented it. When you get down to it, it was corny and cheesy.

David Faustino

But I did break my mum's heart, because I turned down 'Strictly' twice. I just couldn't do it. It's not for me.

Russell Howard

I've been asked by 'Big Brother,' 'I'm a Celebrity - Get Me Out of Here!,' 'Strictly' and 'Dancing on Ice,' but it's not for me.

Ricky Hatton

I'm kind of well-known in Holland, which is nice. But in Holland, we're down to earth; there are no paparazzi in my garden and no autograph hunters at the door. We have 'Strictly Come Dancing,' but I've not been asked.

Marianne Vos

I turned down the first script offered to me, and the second. I lay on my back one day under an umbrella, in the garden, reading the third, and wondered why I had turned down the first.

Conrad Veidt

I never imagined 'Catwoman' would be part of my 'Strictly Come Dancing' journey. But when I turned up to the first of my top secret meetings about joining the show in April, that was the codename I had to whisper to hotel staff, just in case anyone found out that I was set to be a part of it.

Emma Weymouth

Because, let's face it, I do not get offered the parts that Brad Pitt has just turned down.

Stephen Fry

I've had four fantastic years on 'Strictly Come Dancing,' but for us it's about moving forward and the end goal is to present a shiny-floored Saturday night TV show that we all love, for example, 'Strictly,' 'Britain's Got Talent' - those sort of shows.

A. J. Pritchard

I think TV in general is camp. 'X Factor' is camp, 'Strictly Come Dancing' is camp. Basically, an orange man comes down some stairs and waves at the camera. People are drawn to that.
