Even a blind dog can find a bone every so often.

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 exist as an annexe of the BBC. I'm down the road a bit from the main building, in a little hut.

A lot of those comics can't hold down relationships and they've got no other life apart from performing. They sleep in their Jags and a lot of them can't even talk. All they can do is tell gags.

It seems easier to make a career out of comedy now than it was in the 1980s.

Most of my friends are women - I quite fancied being a woman in a way.

However, my problems with my memory are further complicated by the fact that while I don't have any recollection of things I have actually done, I have very vivid recollections of loads of things that I haven't done.
