ADD QUOTES
- After Patrick Swazye did an impression of him. Bruno: What an endorsement.
  Edit Share Hide
- Bruno (on Dancing With the Stars): It's very similar. It's exactly the same show. It's fewer judges, so we talk more, which I quite like! Well, I'm never one to shut up. It was the biggest show in the summer.
  Edit Share Hide
- Bruno (on who he think will win): Well, I don't know! At this stage I really don't know. It could be Zoë; it could James, Colin or Darren. At this stage they are all in the running. Patsy could come back very, very strong. At the moment Will and Bill are the weakest.
