We all know smoking is bad. I know I'm going to quit someday, if I thought I wasn't I'd quit now.

The trend now is to get away from stage bound sitcoms.

Cooking? Oh we were great, you'd take anything and melt cheese on it, and the one who could guess what it was didn't have to wash up!

We are both drawn to surreal situations so the writing was a joy.

I wanted to show off - a simple impulse or drive; in much the same way as some kids wanted to play football, I wanted to show off. Not complicated in that sense, very natural; it just depends on how you want to show off.

If you're a comic, you don't have a rehearsal room, you rehearse on stage. My main concern is remembering everything.

Maybe this is just me, but as time goes by, I'm more bewildered by modernity. It gets more unfathomable with every passing year.
