There's something about being a comedian that means you have to not be scared of failing because failing is part of the process.

I think all those rules are boring. About what people can and can't wear. Surely everyone should be able to wear whatever they like?

My favourite restaurant of all time is Mildreds on London's Lexington Street. It's a little vegetarian restaurant and is really fun and healthy, too. It was the first place I went to in London and really liked. That was 20 years ago, and it is still my favourite.

I haven't put much effort into my personal life and blithely believe it will turn out all right in the end.

I can't see why anyone would want to be in politics because you get so much criticism.

TV has lost a lot of its self-confidence as its power has been eroded by the internet.

Definitely I love women, I love being around women, I find them incredible and intoxicating, and I've never had that feeling I get with women with a man.
