First off, I have to mention what is undoubtedly the greatest phenomenon of the modern era: All You Can Eat Buffets.

Dire Straits is a great band. Someone tells you they like ""Brothers in Arms"" and immediately you know they're a stupid annoying git.

It always seemed to be a constant that my parents were political.

I don't think people were that interested in what I was doing for the most of the 1990s.

Now, as a comic, if you're vaguely amusing you can go straight into TV, then you play the O2 and then everyone's sick of you.

I liked 35 and in both my novels that is the age of the lead characters. I tried making them my age but they just seemed to keep moaning about stuff.

I feel sorry for many politicians we expect them to be completely consistent and moralised when we're not.
