Growing up, I didn't feel very cool having come from the Midlands.

Ironically, there isn't much comedy film in Britain, which is quite surprising seeing that we're quite good at it.

We developed 'Sightseers' as a TV idea but didn't get anywhere with it because all the channels said it was too dark originally as an idea for television.

So many films end up being filmed in London or in the same places over and over again.

I think in most couples or partnerships, there's a constant struggle for power and dominance.

Both of us have forged our careers in London, but a lot of my comedy influences come from my family and my childhood.

I think 99% of the whole thing is to have passion about the idea yourself. I think part of your job as a filmmaker is to tell someone that might not think it's going to work that, actually, it will work.
