The way to a man's heart is through his hanky pocket with a breadknife.

I have friends who vote Tory, and I'm appalled, but that's not to say they're not great people in so many other ways.

I tend to think the world is a bit of a miserable place, so anyone who can add to people's optimistic, cheerful side is doing a good job, which is what I hope I'm doing.

I was always being called upon to be an honorary boy alongside my brothers. I don't think I'd be a comic now if it hadn't been for that.

My mum always felt that women deserved as much as men, and should have as much power, so I suppose I opted to go into a very male-dominated arena to try and prove that.

I never ever take into consideration the consequences of my actions until it's too late.

You look across the board at comedy quiz shows, and they are mainly hosted by men.
