love-is men feelings
Definitely I love women, I love being around women, I find them incredible and intoxicating, and I've never had that feeling I get with women with a man.
thinking people able
I think all those rules are boring. About what people can and can't wear. Surely everyone should be able to wear whatever they like?
comedy element kids meant naughty watch
I was probably about 12 and The Young Ones wasn't meant for 12-year-olds, but there's always that element in kids where they want to watch the naughty comedy that's not for them.
britain british-actor characters knows people
People feel they know me because of my Little Britain characters - But I'm not a Little Britain character. No one knows what I'm really like.
boys bullied call course meant oh
Oh yes, of course I was bullied - The boys used to call me Daphne, which was meant to put me down. I was very camp.
amount certain chemistry creates difficult explain magic obviously science
And then there is a certain amount of magic which is difficult to explain as a science because it isn't. There is a certain chemistry the two of us have writing together, which obviously creates something better than us apart.
audience britain hope
We hope the Little Britain audience who like us will come with us on that journey.
school watching
When I was at school I was watching The Young Ones,
characters lots series
We're going to make another series with lots of new characters and old characters together.
baker kid obsessed sort tom
I was born in 1971, and Tom Baker was sort of my obsession as a kid and that's why we got him to do the voice over for 'Little Britain' because I was actually obsessed with Tom Baker.
bad develop good harder lots meet single time weird
It's a weird thing because I've been single at the time when I've been successful. That's good and bad. Good, because you meet lots of people, bad because your privacy is infringed, so it's harder to develop things.
sports running pain
I was quite fat as a kid. And swimming is a sport you can enjoy whatever size you are. If you're fat, running is a pain. I'm not really built for running.
children book hands
When I was a child I devoured every book I could get my hands on. I loved losing myself in colourful and dramatic stories - and my absolute favourite was 'Charlie And The Chocolate Factory.' Everything about it electrified me, and when I re-read Roald Dahl's books as an adult it surprised me.
nice cake eggs
In Britain, a cup of tea is the answer to every problem. Fallen off your bicycle? Nice cup of tea. Your house has been destroyed by a meteorite? Nice cup of tea and a biscuit. Your entire family has been eaten by a Tyrannosaurus Rex that has travelled through a space/time portal? Nice cup of tea and a piece of cake. Possibly a savoury option would be welcome here too, for example a Scotch egg or a sausage roll.
