They call it 'surfing' the net. It's not surfing. It's typing in your bedroom

I love mixing with comedians when I'm working with them, but when I'm not I don't feel the need to hang around with them.

I have had issues with depression all my life, and it's probably true to say there was a tendency towards it even when I was very young, during my schooldays. There was often - and this is quite common with comics - a sense of not feeling as if I belonged anywhere.

People who are pro smacking children say, 'It's the only language they understand.' You could apply that to tourists.

I was so keen to become a comedian that actually doing the comedy itself almost came second.

I really hated fighting people and hurting them, but felt unable to stop.

Comedy and tragedy are two sides of the same coin. A talent in one area might also lead to a predisposition in the other.
