It's a great counter to doing the soap because it's a comedy. It's real physical comedy.

In daytime, they're doing 50-60 pages a day, whereas nighttime, you do seven or eight.

I'm sort of an experimenter; I thought it'd be interesting to play around and see what's there.

Comedy is very interesting because you can very quickly cross into dangerous territory. I mean look at what happened, unfortunately, (in) Paris a couple of weeks ago. They were making comics - which were really satire - but it offended people. I'm not saying the reaction was justified but there's definitely a line when you're doing comedy or satire and how it might affect somebody. That's the thing you have to watch and I think you have to be respectful of it.

I'm very much looking forward to my 30-40 years of acting, and, as I get older, I'm really looking forward to some of the roles that are out there to play.

It's an addictive thing. It's not so much I like to go win, but it's a rush.

I'd like to direct some, act in some of them, and produce.
