gig laughing load money raise
I went to Montreal. My first gig went very badly. They just weren't laughing at anything. I found out they were a load of Christians, and it was a gig to raise money for a new church roof.
american-journalist beyond definitely love
I'd love to do acting, but it'd definitely have to be comedy. I can't do serious. It's completely beyond me.
american-journalist brown hope james superstars talking
We had James Brown on, and he started talking about his prostate problems. If superstars end up like this, there's no hope for any of us, is there?
american-journalist bottle half laughed meeting
We had our first meeting yesterday, and we just laughed all the way through, so if we can bottle that, then I'll be happy. We just get on, and that's half the battle.
stupid want rest-of-your-life
Wouldn’t that be an incredibly stupid thing to do? To say ‘I never want to smoke again’, then spend the rest of your life saying ‘I’d love a cigarette.’ That’s what smokers who use the Willpower Method do. No wonder they feel so miserable. They spend the rest of their lives desperately moping for something that they desperately hope they will never have.
hero home shells
You should never meet your heroes. Paul Newman... I was so excited about meeting him, but he turned up in shell suit bottoms, slippers, and a jumper. He was just so worn out and old, he wanted to go home.
people nicole mets
I've met Nicole Kidman, Elton John, loads of people.

I was quite pleased that Prince Philip didn't say anything like, I hate queers! He was quite well behaved.

I think over there in Montreal they're a bit hardcore with the old homos. They're not that keen on them.
thinking excited stills
I still get excited about meeting celebrities, because I don't think I'm a celebrity myself.
fall laughing people
I like old people falling over, that's what makes me laugh.
hate thinking rubbish
I hate Shakespeare. I think Shakespeare's rubbish.
comedian want
I didn't really want to be a comedian.
men frustration frustrated
I'm just generally hugely frustrated, I'm a very, very frustrated man. I'm just a ball of pent-up frustration.
