In Australia, I'm built up as this comedy hero, which was never my intention.

I've done signings where elderly people will line up to get photos with me and ask me to sign things. They don't even pretend it's for their grandkids. They're like, "No, it's for me."

I guess my performance at school was doing school musicals, so I was a knight as well at the back of the stage in Camelot. It was all those kind of things. 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.

I'm not a big fan of 'Jersey Shore' and those kinds of shows where people are really playing up to the cameras.

Fans feel they know me, so they want me to be on-the-spot funny, and it's hard to fulfil their expectations.

I like the boundaries, the kinds of conventions of a documentary and having to work within that.

People were making fun of redheads before I came along.
