"Being a mod is more of a sensibility than a style."
"Benedict (Cumberbatch, who is playing Sherlock) looks amazing. He's still got a Sherlockian silhouette, with a large overcoat, but in a classic cut. Watson dresses with an urban elegance, a touch of old school dashing, giving a feeling of both the military and medical profession. I suppose it's something they have in common as well. They're a bit metrosexual."

"Name anything - high-definition TV, computer obsolescence - and I'm pretty much annoyed by it."
"I'm not posh or common, I'm in between."
"I love that pre-mod jazz look of the late Fifties, the Steve McQueen style that influenced the British modernists."
"I've got a stag weekend coming up and I've said I'm not doing anything more than a few drinks. I won't have it. I'll go home and watch Antiques Roadshow."
