I have been lucky enough to have had the opportunity of travelling across this country and enduring all the classic situations that go with talking to people.

Up until now, I had ideas that I wanted to try but didn't have the opportunity to do them.

Be ready for when your time comes, you will have that window of opportunity, so seize the moment and capitalise on it.

Things are changing. I've been training since I was 9 years old to stretch my wings as an actor dramatically, but have never really been afforded the opportunity to show that.

Right-wing media and politicians are looking for any opportunity to be critical of the reporters who are here. Some reporters make judgments, but that is not my style. I present both sides and report what I see with my own eyes.

Our planes should be full, which among other things means we have a golden opportunity... to build on the momentum reflected in the financial results we are reporting today.

I would return to the Blackadder character if the opportunity came up. I have no qualms about that at all.

Passion is the evil in adultery. If a man has no opportunity of living with another man's wife, but if it is obvious for some reason that he would like to do so, and would do so if he could, he is no less guilty than if he was caught in the act.
