    • (on playing Davy Jones in the "Pirates of the Caribbean" films, his appearance created by CGI) Bill Nighy: It's extraordinary when you see yourself like that. It's mad really. My face moves all the time with these tentacles because they are alive. Amazing. It's extraordinary because it's not like any other gig and when you start you sort of try and tune your head to you know, something where you are operating with a degree of taste and you try and keep the level and authentic and in human terms. And then you remember what you look like and all that goes out of the window really.
    • Bill Nighy: (on being famous) Most of the time, I just forget I'm supposed to be famous. I'll be standing in a shop and notice that someone is staring at me for longer than is strictly courteous. I think either my flies are undone or 'Do I know you?' You forget, because it's not on your screen - it's on other people's screens. But that sort of attention doesn't alter the way you are - if it did, it could drive you mad. People I meet are generally very cheerful towards me. No one has hit me, although you never know. Someone might come up to me and say, 'Jesus, not you again' before smacking me in the mouth. There's got to be someone out there who can't tolerate me.
    • (on "Love Actually") Bill Nighy: They have Love Actually parties now in America. Every Christmas the ladies in particular will open some wine and settle down to watch it all over again. Nothing could give me more pleasure than that.
