{{blockquote|Although we have quite an impressive alumni – everyone from [[Jeremy Irons]] to [[Patrick Stewart]] – I suppose he is now probably the best known, and we're very proud of all he's achieved. I certainly hold him up to current students of an example, particularly as an example of how to manage your career with great integrity. He's never courted fame, and as a result, he's never had his private life impeached upon by the press. He's clearly not interested in celebrity as such – he's just interested in his acting.
