All the parts I get offered are character and comedy parts, and I probably wouldn't get them if I had a different face. So I'm glad I have a comedy face.
I can usually keep a straight face while everyone else cracks up around me, which makes me feel quite humourless. Must be my professionalism!
I don't have much choice these days in how I have my hair.
I haven't got a car or a house. I've got a wife, but I didn't pay for her! I spend all my money on my glorious wife. She's here with a knife at my throat!
I haven't really done a play before. I did a lot of standup comedy but never a proper production. I didn't go to drama schools.
I like the fact you can spend two hours setting up a scene that will only last a couple of seconds. And I like just sitting around and dozing between scenes!
I like the outdoors and the natural world. Environmental issues.
I spend days with writers' block. It is a problem.
I still draw a lot though. Ballpoint pen is my preferred medium.
I'd like to go back to standup. I don't like to think I've done my last gig. At the moment it terrifies me, I get really nervous. It's a great buzz when it goes well.
I'd really like to make my way into film acting. I know it's probably every actor's dream, but cinema is one of my big passions.
It's not a very secure industry. I've spoken to a couple of people recently who had a successful TV show and then found themselves absolutely skint and struggling to find a job.
My son thinks I'm hilarious, but he's only 1.
Recently I've been collecting Star Wars figures again. When I was a kid I couldn't afford them. Now I can so I've been buying them and keeping them in their box for a later date when they'll be worth a lot of money.
There've always been parts for quirky-looking people. Whereas the beautiful people will always be struggling for the very few parts.
Things that we think are so cutting edge and new are often the first things that start dating. What now seems really subtle and understated might in a few years' time seem really hammy.
Whenever I dream, I dream of fish. It's something within me I have to sort out with fish, but I haven't figured out what it is.
