Those years between drama school and getting onto the stand-up circuit were pretty lean.

I am camp. Lots of gay men can't cope with their campness. They are in denial about it.

I do get pleasure from very inconsequential things, like shopping for clothes.

I'm often dating people, but I don't say it because you sort of know it won't last long.

I've heard other gay people say when they were growing up they felt 'foreign.' Growing up, I was able to label these feelings as: 'I'm a Protestant.' It wasn't until I left, I thought: 'Oh, those weren't Protestant feelings.'

Where I get bored is when I show up for a shoot and they want me to wear a feather boa. Too obvious a thing for a poof on the telly to do.

If it was possible for me to adopt, I probably would, but no one's going to let me adopt.
