I can be described as many things, but no description of me is complete without saying 'Englishman.' My parents were from Liverpool and emigrated to Canada before I was born.

I love making comedy. I never stopped loving it. I will continue to love it and I can't believe that I get to do it.

Canada is a country of ingredients without a cuisine; we're a country with musicians without an indigenous instrument; Toronto's a city that doesn't even have a dish named after it.

I'm bigger than you! I'm higher on the food chain - get in my belly!

Dad loved movies and I grew up with British comedy. My ultimate favourite is Peter Sellers.

Silly is you in a natural state, and serious is something you have to do until you can get silly again.

I'm basically a sexless geek. Look at me, I have pasty-white skin, I have acne scars and I'm five-foot-nothing. Does that sound like a real sexual dynamo to you?
