There's a reason people love watching blooper reels of actors falling about laughing.

I think we all have a similar philosophy about comedy and comic performance which is that it's at its best when you can see the pleasure the performer has, when you can see a glimmer in the eye.

When I watch comedy I love to see that pleasure in the performer's eye and that sense of cheek - and even those moments when you can see someone is trying not to laugh.

I always performed as a kid to make my family laugh and was more concerned with making kids at school laugh than I was about the lessons.

It's so infectious to watch people having fun.

I always had the desire to perform. If it wasn't my career now, I'd still be doing amateur dramatics. It's just something you love, and when you get paid to do it, you pinch yourself every day.
