- Nov 07, 2020
By a lot of people's standards, I lived a very privileged life. I never wanted for attention, I never wanted for material things. In some ways, I was probably spoiled because I never had to share. And I was doted on.
- Child

- Nov 07, 2020
Because I was a shy and awkward child, I used humour to deflect attention. It was a controlling mechanism. Because I could use it to control my image.
- Funny

- Nov 07, 2020
When I realised I had a facility for humour, I latched on to it, and it gave me confidence and I built my personality around it. So I subconsciously made myself become the funny one so that would be my label rather than the ginger one or the red-faced one.
- Frightened

I'm not frightened of a bit of silence.
- Looking

I will absolutely say that whatever job I was asked to do, whatever schedule I was asked to work, it is never going to be as hard as looking after a child.

Although I was a shy child, I was also a bit flamboyant.
- Me

- Nov 07, 2020
I realised that if you get yourself labeled as the funny one, people don't look any further. I've used that as I've got older. It's controlling: I decide what part of my personality you're seeing. I don't want you to look at me, I really don't. I don't want you to comment on my clothes, my hair or the way I look.
- Lazy
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I'm naturally quite lazy, and I actually think I'm lax about my career. None of my work defines who I am.
- Negative
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I'm an incredibly negative person, so any form of success is only ever going to be a relief to me and set my default position back to neutral.

I went from an unemployed actor's life to doing stand-up comedy, and that was fortuitous. It's not the usual way the crow flies, going from being in a TV sketch show to playing one of Shakespeare's finest characters, but, hey, that's the way it has happened.
- Look
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
It's never been a point of reference to look to a man. It's not always a good thing, I suppose, but I think independence is always preferable to dependence.
- School

- Nov 07, 2020
I tried four times to get into the Central School of Speech and Drama before I got accepted. I started when I was 17, which was too young, in retrospect, and finally went when I was 21. I just kept plugging away. Determined? Yeah, I think I was.
