Chris LilleyI was terrible student. I was capable, but I never like being told what to do, so I was always in the bottom class at school. In Australia, a lot of students study to the end of year 10, but don't go on to the final year, and I was asked to leave the school because they just thought I wasn't performing well enough. I used to sneak off to play piano, and defy the rules of the school.

It wasn't the stuff that I wanted to do. The real funny character stuff came out when I was in control of it myself and writing it myself.
