Stand-up, for me, is really more of an addiction, so you have to feed the beast whenever you can.

The British press are a group of unremitting scumbags. And sometimes they use that scumbaggery to good ends, and often not.

I feel non-stop Brit shame!

My family are from Liverpool, so I have some twang there - I have a Midlands accent, and I was raised about an hour north of London, so my voice is a mess. Although, to American ears, it sounds like the crisp language of a queen's butler.

It's a great time to be doing political satire when the world is on a knife edge.

There's never any time I think I'm a real journalist, because I don't have any of the qualifications or the intentions for that.

I feel more at home knowing I'm not really at home. It takes all the pressure off you trying to fit in!
