There have been times I've finished a big job and thought, 'Great, a couple of weeks off.' But then a couple of weeks turns to three weeks and then after a month you're staring at the phone willing it to ring.

It's lovely being a parent and being in a strong marriage with somebody who is your best friend.

My work's never been accepted by my family, but it's something I'll always carry on with.

I used to be good with kids, but as I get older, I'm grumpy and terrible with them. As for doing a gig at a 6-year old's birthday party, you couldn't pay me enough.

I actually enjoy being heckled; it keeps it interesting, and I think it is a nice feeling for people once they have left the show.

I am a big fan of smelly cheeses but the rest of the family don't seem to be particularly keen on them.

I use very few muscles at the best of times.
