I'm terribly attention-seeking. It's very different once you get all this attention, though. Because then you want to control it. And you can't exactly.

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

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

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

I don't get recognized much, and am very happy with that. The fans I have met have all been delightful.

In Britain, a cup of tea is the answer to every problem. Fallen off your bicycle? Nice cup of tea. Your house has been destroyed by a meteorite? Nice cup of tea and a biscuit. Your entire family has been eaten by a Tyrannosaurus Rex that has travelled through a space/time portal? Nice cup of tea and a piece of cake. Possibly a savoury option would be welcome here too, for example a Scotch egg or a sausage roll.

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?
