About Dan (2005): "Dan is... Where do I start? He is a fireball, he's got so much energy that guy, I don't know where it comes from. He's a fantastic entertainer. One day, there just needs to be the Daniel Radcliffe programme, you just need to film him, you know, just film him, he is so funny. He is very very into music, very very strong opinion in music front. He is very kind of stand up comedian guy, so he'll be very entertaining on your show."
