I always, always want to make people laugh. In every situation. Even when it's inappropriate.

Hackney gets a bit of a bad rap, but it's the only place I've ever lived that felt like a community. I know my neighbours.

Comedians... they're different from actors. There's more ego there. They create the whole thing, I guess, so they're more precious.

I've never for a second felt like my job has been more of a struggle because I'm a woman.

Spending way too long worrying about what people think about me is a bad habit.

The thing is, I love a celebrity interview. Doesn't matter how big or how small. It could be Hillary Clinton or the guy who made it to the third round of 'Popstars,' I'll read it.

I think the best comedy is tragicomic. Yeah, I suppose if you were to look at everything I've done, there is a bit of a black streak through all of it. It's not deliberate: it's what makes me laugh, and there's a fine tradition of it, especially in Ireland.
