I don't know what I'll be like when I'm 60. I already have the traits of a retired gentleman.

We've got 12-year-old boys dressing up as transvestites.

I think comedy is a bit more international than people credit. I happily watch lots of American shows and American comedy films. If I did a list of the top 10 comedy films in Britain, there's no sense that it would probably be different than yours.

Ricky Gervais would have you believe otherwise, but Sacha Baron Cohen is the most successful British comedian in the world.

I've just swum the length of the Thames. I feel quite tired.

Writing for radio really focuses the mind, because you can't rely on thinking "Oh, just pull a funny face at the end of this sketch." You've got to try to work on the words.

I was the kind of person who got bullied and loved the attention of it.
