I don't mind being slightly fat-ish, I just don't want to be fat.

I grew up in a house of forthright women.

When I say I hate nostalgia, I hate things set in the recent past where everything is shiny and new.

I think there's something in the fact that it's hard to be good looking and funny. You have to have an oddball quality; people have to sympathise with you to find you funny.

I get asked all the time if I want to do more dramatic acting, and I really doubt that dramatic actors get asked if they want to do more comedies. I don't really know why that is.

All of this talk of recession offends me. I am delighted that bankers have less money.

I've gone up for loads of jobs in the past that I knew were going to be terrible, and I've done my best, and I still haven't got them. So I think I've been lucky in who's decided I'd be worthy of their time.
