David Walliams wants to quit 'Britain's Got Talent' before people get sick of him.
The 'Big School' star has confessed that although he loves his role as a judge on the ITV talent show, he doesn't want to carry on doing it forever as he doesn't want to become boring to viewers.
Quizzed on whether he would be returning, despite his two-year contract running out at the end of the last series, he told the Daily Mirror newspaper: "I haven't decided yet. I'd like to do it if I can but we're still trying to work it out.
"It's a brilliant show to be a part of and it's really fun. But you don't want to do it forever."
The 43-year-old comedian - who has 16-month-old son Alfred with supermodel wife Lara Stone - added: "There's a point where people get sick of people. You want to jump out and stop before that moment. But it's difficult to know when that is."
Meanwhile, Alesha Dixon - who has appeared on the judging panel alongside David, Simon Cowell and Amanda Holden for the past two series - has revealed she'd love to return at the same time as continuing her music career.
She said previously: "If I had it my way, I'd be back. But it's up to Simon, so we'll see.
"There's no point being a judge on a show when I'm not doing the thing that got me to that position."
It is so far unknown as to whether Simon and Amanda will be returning either.

Stephen Fry wasted an "enormous" amount of time and money on cocaine.
The 'QI' host has opened up further about his struggle with drug addiction, depression and his bipolar disorder in latest autobiography 'More Fool Me', claiming he wasted far too much time and money on drugs in the past.
In an extract from the book, printed in the Daily Mirror newspaper, he said: "I have been utterly candid about a period of my life in which I spent an enormous amount of time and money on cocaine powder.
"I know how stupid that is, but I know better people than me have found themselves on the same path."
Meanwhile, the 57-year-old comedian - who admitted last year that he'd attempted suicide in 2012 - hinted last week that he had recorded a cameo in US comedy animation 'American Dad!' before jokingly adding that he wouldn't be completely satisfied in his career until he appeared on long-running medical drama 'Casualty'.
He wrote on Twitter: "That was fun - just played an @AmericanDadFOX character. My life is complete. Oh wait, I haven't been on @BBCCasualty yet."

An 'X Factor' contestant tried to claim a £48.1 million payout with a fake lottery ticket.
Ten Senah couldn't believe her luck when she realised she had the winning numbers for the EuroMillions but, after storming to the offices of the lottery firm Camelot to claim her prize, she was refused the lump sum because the ticket had been tampered with.
Speaking to The Sun newspaper, Ten said: "I'm numb, I was planning the house, the car, everything. Nothing prepares you for that moment -- and then to have it taken away again, it's the cruellest thing in the world."
After Camelot said the slip was not genuine because the numbers had been stuck on with glue, Ten confronted the shopkeeper she bought the ticket from.
She added: "There's no way any of my friends would have got into my bag. I kept the ticket in my diary, really safe. I had no idea how this would have happened. It's the real ticket, that's it -- why would I have gone to Camelot and gone to the guy in the shop if I didn't truly believe I had won?
"I know it's totally crazy, I couldn't believe it myself."
However, a letter from Camelot stated that the lottery ticket, bought for the draw on May 23, was not a match and failed the company's security measures.
It reads: "During the validation procedure... your ticket failed company security checks.
"I would also mention that there were no jackpot-winning tickets that matched all five numbers and both Lucky Stars on Friday, May 23."
Meanwhile, Ten, who turned up to her first audition drunk, went through to the bootcamp stage of the competition last night (21.09.14) after receiving a 'yes' vote from Simon Cowell, Louis Walsh and Cheryl Cole.

Lauren Goodger insists Ricci Guarnaccio isn't her type.
The former 'The Only Way Is Essex' star was seen flirting up a storm with the Geordie hunk during their time in the 'Celebrity Big Brother' house but, after telling him they could only be friends, she's spoken out to confess that she just doesn't fancy him.
Writing in her column for new! magazine, she said: "Ricci has told people he can 100 per cent see us getting together now we're out, but I'm not sure how I feel. He's a lovely guy and my family really like him but he's just not my type. To be honest, I think my family thinks anyone who isn't my ex is good for me."
The 27-year-old beauty went on to dismiss reports that the former 'Geordie Shore' star was going to be whisking her away on a romantic trip.
She continued: "I think we got so close because we spent 24 hours a day together and it's nice to have someone's
affection. But the thing with Ricci was, he'd get funny with me if I didn't say things like, 'Yep, we're a couple and we're
going to get married'.
"As for him saying we're going to Paris on holiday - what?! I don't remember agreeing to this, and if I did, I would have
been drunk. But I've told him numerous times to take everything I say with a pinch of salt when I've had a drink."
Putting her comments to one side, Lauren went on to say that she does think Ricci is a "great guy", but hopes he can
accept that they're "just friends".

Craig Revel Horwood has branded the 'X Factor' panel "desperate".
The outspoken 'Strictly Come Dancing' judge also hit out at Cheryl Fernandez-Versini's judging skills, insisting she isn't impartial enough to give contestants a fair critique.
Responding to the 'Crazy Stupid Love' singer's comments about winning 'Strictly' not meaning or offering as much as winning 'The X Factor', Craig said: "I think it is sour grapes. As long as she keeps crying, that's all the audience wants from Cheryl.
"I think Simon [Cowell] made her say it - they're getting desperate for viewers so I think they'll use anything they can.
"[As for Cheryl's judging], I think if you get that attached to people it does harm your judging skills."
The choreographer believes his show is much more "fun" than its rival.
He added: "'Strictly' doesn't pick people up and drop them. And you get to learnt to dance. It's a lot more fun, it's not as serious."
However, despite his comments, Craig admits he does watch 'The X Factor' - to scout for new talent.
He told heat magazine: "I'm on the lookout for new talent for my theatre shows. So they do all the work for me."

Donny Osmond will join 'Strictly Come Dancing' as a guest judge.
The pop icon is set to be part of the panel for the show's third live episode, and he claimed he celebrities will have to show "chemistry" and dedication to earn top marks.
He said: "I'll be looking for partner chemistry and for the performer who is ready to put it all on the line."
Donny - who won US contest 'Dancing with the Stars' in 2009 - was reportedly seen as an "obvious choice" when show bosses became keen on using a guest judge on the current series of the celebrity ballroom competition.
An insider told The Sun on Sunday newspaper: "The bosses were keen to have a guest judge for one of the live shows and Donny seemed an obvious choice."
The 'Puppy Love' hitmaker will be sat alongside Len Goodman, Darcey Bussell, Bruno Tonioli and Craig Revel Horwood, and the latter recently took aim at rival TV show 'The X Factor' after Cheryl Ferandez-Versini suggested winning the singing contest meant more than 'Strictly'.
He said: "I think it is sour grapes. As long as she keeps crying, that's all the audience wants from Cheryl.
"I think Simon [Cowell] made her say it - they're getting desperate for viewers so I think they'll use anything they can.
"[As for Cheryl's judging], I think if you get that attached to people it does harm your judging skills."

Ola Jordan would quit 'Strictly Come Dancing' to start a family.
The star - whose husband James was dropped by show bosses - has admitted she doesn't know if her future lies with the celebrity ballroom contest, and suggested children could be in her future.
She told the Daily Star Sunday newspaper: "I don't know about doing the show next year, I really don't know.
"I really want a family. And whatever life brings me, I'm going to do it, so I don't mind what happens with 'Strictly'.
"I think you have to take opportunities as they come and I might have a family to think about by next year. I really don't know if I'll want to come back."
Ola appeared on the BBC show for eight years, along with her husband, before he was axed and she has admitted it's difficult working without him around.
She added: "Everyone's been lovely. They've all been really supportive but it's still very strange for me to be there without James.
"I'm getting on with my job but I'm missing him very much. It's hard being away from him. I'm going to try to enjoy it without him."

Lacey Turner is "like a granny".
The 26-year-old actress admits she didn't spend a lot of time with her castmates while shooting 'Our Girl' because she favoured early nights in the tough conditions.
She said: "We had a few dinners, but I'm like a granny, I just go to bed early and I don't really drink, so I didn't bother visiting the wine lands in South Africa.
"I'd head back to the hotel after filming and it was like a mission; shower, eat, bed. I needed to be up at 4.30am for filming."
While she didn't socialise much with the rest of the cast, Lacey delighted them when she produced chocolate on set following a visit from her family.
She said: "I saved the day with chocolate. You can't get Galaxy in South Africa and in the end, I had family come out with 16 bags of Minstrels, which I shared with the cast.
"They melt in your pocket - you can squeeze them out the packet like a drink."
Ahead of filming the wartime drama, Lacey was sent to a boot camp and enjoyed the experience, though she found it tough.
She told Closer magazine: "Just training yourself to go into that heat was tough. It was tough because there were times when it was around 46 degrees and we were wearing boots, socks, trousers, a vest, helmet and body armour.
"We were running up and down mountains through rivers. I loved it, though I figured out I'd definitely rather work in the rain than the heat."

Frankie Bridge's Saturdays bandmates think she'll be a "stand-out" on 'Strictly Come Dancing'.
The brunette beauty showcased some of her fancy footwork on stage at The SSE Arena, Wembley, London during the group's Greatest Hits tour last night (19.09.14) and the rest of the band think she has what it takes to scoop the glitterball trophy.
Her bandmate Una Foden said: "Check out Frankie's moves out in the next song, I keep calling it the Cha Cha Cha, it's The Saturdays' version. She will definitely be a stand-out - she's amazing."
The 25-year-old beauty - who has 11-month-old son Parker with husband Wayne Bridge - laughed and admitted her idea of a Cha Cha Cha was very different to that which she has learned during rehearsals for the show.
'Strictly' starts in two weeks time and Frankie told the crowd she had been asked to film a short clip for the programme, enlisting her bandmate Rochelle Humes with a camera.
Elsewhere in the set, the group - which also includes Vanessa White and Mollie King - donned a series of sexy costumes, including short sparkly gold dresses for the opening segment and firefighter outfits for 'All Fired Up' and got close to a number of hunky male dancers.
After powering through hits including 'Ego', 'Forever Is Over' and 'Work', the five-piece closed with number one single 'What About Us?' as confetti canons were let off.
