When you're doing stand-up, you can comment if something fails, get a laugh from that.

I do seem to look like a lot of people.

When you're a kid, I think you want to be a film star. And I'm not as enamoured with that any more. The reality of that life is a lot of travel, and a lot of being away, which is impractical because I have four children, so I don't want to be away that much, not the other side of the world away.

I think, if you've got children, that's your life. Your 'showbiz' life, if you want to call it that, is a separate thing, and it isn't everything to me.

I had a moment where I realised I could do silly voices, that lots of people I knew couldn't do silly voices, and that thus I must be able to make money doing silly voices.

I like witty people, people who can be witty on the spot.

There are some people who only know me for cornflakes ads, and that's fine. I have a charmed life.
