I would just like to be remembered.

I lived at home until I was 23.

Death by rats would be the worst.

Real life is hard. I'm sorry, but shopping at Tesco is not as much fun as writing jokes for TV shows, and I struggle with it.

The last thing you want to do is preach to the converted. What you want to do is talk about issues from a non-political point of view, from a human point of view.

It takes a lot to stop myself scrambling around and reading the news.

Sometimes I skip breakfast, pop to the butcher and get sunburned while cooking meat.

I'll sit down for 'Stranger Things' or 'The Handmaid's Tale' - or a really good documentary.

Portland is incredible. It's the most amazing place.

I buck the trend: I eat avocados on a Sunday morning and I'm a homeowner.

I think all our leaders are utterly beneath us. You just watch 'Prime Minister's Questions' and go: 'How is this the best that we've got?'

I'd like to have kids.

I'm not a particularly ambitious person.

I just assume a lot of people hate me. You just have to suck it up.

I'm really not into technology at all. My brother has to plug the Xbox in for me.

When you see the American chat shows, they've got so many ideas about what they could with the guests. I did stand-up on 'Jimmy Fallon' and they had loads of sketches and ideas, we don't tend to do that here.

If the front-page news is a comedian doing a joke that people think is naughty, that proves there's no real news that day, does it not?

The strange thing about people considering me upbeat is that I'm really not.

Genuinely, the first gig I did when I was 18, it felt like the world shifted. I realised that I had stumbled upon a mechanism through which you could view life.

I'm a very early riser on holiday. I am invariably down at the pool on a sun lounger even before anyone can put a towel on one.

Tommy Tiernan is an Irish comic who I believe is one of the finest in the world.

At a gig in Liverpool I had this lady give me 21 cup cakes she had made herself. It's not really rock'n'roll is it? Tom Jones gets pants thrown at him and I get given fairy cakes.

I'm not the kind of comic who would try stuff on Twitter, because I have to work up ideas and I can only do that in front of people.

I've been doing stand-up for 15 years and I've never even been invited to the Comedy Awards! How mental is that?
