In England, there are four major cities within a two-hour drive, so the comedy circuit thrives as a result.
Quote by -Joe Lycett
Competitions are great. Unlike a lot of other creative industries they are a great way of climbing the ladder early on. If you win a comp you get on the big clubs' radar. Some people are not great at competitions, so it doesn't work out for everybody, but it is certainly a good way of getting seen by industry people.
Quote by -Joe Lycett
I think it's something to do with the nurturing side of the psyche; tying up a sunflower or whatever and helping it grow, it is just some kind of core human experience.
Quote by -Joe Lycett
When you're going into companies and you're secret filming, I didn't realise the amount of protection that you need legally before you can do just the slightest thing.
Quote by -Joe Lycett
I used to sing classical music to the flowers in the garden and imagine they were all different parts of the orchestra. It used to really annoy the neighbours.
Quote by -Joe Lycett
I love painting. I love writing. I love creating and being around people who are creating.
Quote by -Joe Lycett
I think it's important to go out and gig all over the country, it makes you a better comic.
Quote by -Joe Lycett
I think it's important some people do publicly go 'Hey, I'm not straight and I'm not gay. I'm somewhere in the middle and that's ok.'
Quote by -Joe Lycett
I often ask people in the audience what their favourite cheese is. Anything less than Gruyere and they're just not middle class!
Quote by -Joe Lycett
It is amazing that I'm making a career out of comedy, my family can't quite believe it.
Quote by -Joe Lycett
My philosophy is, if I couldn't say it in front of my grandmother, I probably shouldn't say it.
Quote by -Joe Lycett
I never wanted to be famous, I just wanted to be creative for my job, I suppose, and perform.
Quote by -Joe Lycett
I think the city isn't talked about enough, there are not enough people championing Birmingham. When I was at university in Manchester I wasn't a fan, I was a bit down on my home city. But as I've got older I love living here. It's easy to get around the country to gigs, and it's a calming, friendly city.
Quote by -Joe Lycett
I sleep all the time! I often leave an event early because I want to have a snooze.
Quote by -Joe Lycett
I originally came out as gay when I was a teenager, then backtracked when I thought I had closed off the market a bit!
Quote by -Joe Lycett
Alan Carr is an out and proud gay man but there isn't a famous bisexual equivalent - it's a lot rarer.
Quote by -Joe Lycett
It's a bit embarrassing for a company to be exposed for wrongdoing, but it's really embarrassing if it's done by making them the butt of a joke.
Quote by -Joe Lycett
I'm so British and polite that creating a scene or being confrontational is so not my vibe.
Quote by -Joe Lycett
I don't want someone to be nice and friendly while telling me my bill's gone up by 10 per cent because they've just decided that.
Quote by -Joe Lycett
The Time It Takes' is one of the most brilliantly daft shows I've ever been involved in - and that's saying something.
Quote by -Joe Lycett
When I started stand-up, it was really just to have a go at alpha males essentially, there was no plan and there never has been really.
Quote by -Joe Lycett
Normally during the week between Christmas and New Year I'm slumped in a chair in Birmingham, eating, farting and spouting total nonsense.
Quote by -Joe Lycett
I'd done some acting and I didn't like being told what to do by the director, the structure of it.
Quote by -Joe Lycett
I have always been an extrovert. When I was younger, I would go outside and sing to the flowers and pretend they were the orchestra. As one of my parents' friends said, I was an odd boy.
Quote by -Joe Lycett
You should always ask for a refund at the theatre, apart from my shows, of course, where I won't be handing out any refunds.
