Chappelle is incredible. He is comfy on stage and he talks about big things and small things. He's a version of himself. That's what I've always wanted to be and hopefully I still am.

'Monty Python' was never on TV in the U.K. when I was a kid.

I like New York, I think you've got some of the best comics in the world here.

My mum is unwittingly funny.

I always found it strange, when I went round to other people's houses for tea and that, how strict their parents were.

I don't really have a political agenda, I just like things to be fair - I get angered by pomposity and privilege.

I'm trying to write a film with my friend. I'd love to get the thrill of speaking actors making my work even funnier.

But I did break my mum's heart, because I turned down 'Strictly' twice. I just couldn't do it. It's not for me.

I did a stand-up performance on Conan O'Brian, which was great, but it's not for me. I prefer England.

I found out recently that my 'Good News' show has a big following in North Korea and the Vatican City! Who knew Kim Jong-un and the Pope liked fast-paced satire?

I worked in a watercress bed, picking weeds out of watercress when I was at school. It was awful.

I never really wanted to be on telly.

It's really frustrating when you write a show and it's really funny and someone and from Standards and Decency says, 'You can't put that in because it has a naughty word.'

The British Museum is great for seeing how excellent we were at stealing things.

In the summer Regent's Park is one of the best places in the world with every nationality playing every sport.

There's a club called Headliners in Chiswick where I do a lot of my warmups for tours. For me it's a nice 'big-small' room: it's a 300 seater, which feels small but you can still get big laughs.

I don't like doing things badly, that just feels like a waste of a day.

Oddly, I am really cool under pressure.

I'm not really a cake man. I'm more a savoury guy.

Neither me or my wife are any good at cooking.

I'm happy when I'm working.

Whenever the word 'weird' is mentioned it can only be an insult.

My Mum is not used to being in-front of camera.

I spent a lot of my childhood sat on a wall thinking, waiting for my mum to pick me up.
