- Alan Davies: [on his attitude to the UK press] Ex-girlfriends have sold stories to the papers, my father has got upset when I've been misquoted, and it's become a real bugbear of mine. I've seen a very good friend of mine, Angus Deayton, destroyed by the media. The newspapers print phone numbers saying, 'If you know anything about a famous person, ring us and we'll destroy them for you'.
