- Douglas:( on his character Professor Nick Cutter in Primeval) Professor Cutter who I play in Primeval always does the right thing and it gets a bit boring. You think 'Can you not just smack him in the mouth if he's going to do that to you.' It's nice to play someone who doesn't always do the right thing.

- Douglas:( on religion and the Christian church) I loathe religion of all forms. I think the Church especially is resposible for more pain, more suffering that any other thing on the planet. I would have those people involved in it shot.

- Douglas:(on his character Cromwell Marsh in Gentlememen's Relish) He's essentially got a good heart but he's also got his eye on the main chance, he's ambitious but he doesn't really know how to get anywhere. But he spots an opportunity to work with Kingdom Swan and then spots another opportunity to make money out of him. But he loves and adores Swann and he wouldn't harm him for the world. Cromwell Marsh is an opportunist with a good heart basically.
