I have a very good memory for scripts. I can watch a show I like once, then remember about 90% of the script. But ask me who was in it, and I wouldn't have a clue.

I'm best known as a stand-up comedian, but I'm a good actor in the right role.

I find it hard to get enthusiastic about hotels because, as a touring comic, I spend a lot of time in them.

I became hugely overweight and then hated myself because it was a form of self-abuse, something over which I had no control. I think the thing compulsive over-eaters want to achieve is that stuffed-full Christmas afternoon feeling.

I am not racked with self-loathing. Some issues of guilt and shame, but I'm a pretty good guy.

Christians, you and your churches don't get to be millionaires while other people have nothing at all. They're your bloody rules! Either stick to them or abandon the faith.

I find myself by default an atheist but fairly unhappily so. It would be bloody marvelous if there was a god.
