I feel Scottish when with English people, and when I'm with Scottish people, I realise I'm English.

I've started running three or four times a week, which prompts millions of sketch ideas.

I think acting is overrated. I'm not sure I enjoyed it. You never get to write your own roles. It's wonderful for some people, but I found it nerve-wracking. I was too busy worrying that no one would give me their words to speak.

I do laugh when I hear myself saying, 'I am a ventriloquist.' I am definitely suited to it, though. I took it and ran with it quite hungrily. It is not for everyone, but it is just the chance to write for a character.

With acting, I always felt like I didn't have control of it. It was all about other people giving me a job.

If I have a gig in the evening, I get 'the doom' at about 5 P.M., when I think I'm getting flu.
