I Had Always Fancied A Go At The Comedy And When It Started To Go Reasonably Well And The Opportunity Arose For Me To Move Into It Full Time, I Just Couldn't Turn It Down. I Just Took The Risk, And I Just Wanted To See If It Would Work And Thankfully It Did.

I Think Actors Go Along A Continuum From Simon Callow Down To Kind Of Ross Kemp, And I Like To Think Of Myself As The Ross Kemp Of Comedy. He's Very Good In 'east Enders' Because He Plays A Version Of Himself. I Think I Can Play A Version Of Myself - That's About All I Can Do.

My Doctor Told Me I Should Get Out Of Breath Three Times A Week, So I Took Up Smoking.

I Just Don't Like Travelling Very Much.
