My children don't think anything about it because they are dead/don't exist. My parents are very supportive despite the fact that I have constantly been pressuring them to get a proper job in show businesses instead of the nonsense they actually do as teachers and the like.

7. What’s the worst thing about being a comedian?

 

Trying to be funny the whole damn time.

8. I think you are very good at what you do (that’s why I’m asking these questions). What do you think of you?

 

Thank you! I think you are also very good at what I do! What do you do? I think I'm alright at it but I'll never properly get the hang of it.

9. How much do you earn and how much would you like to earn?

 

I earn literally thousands of pounds. It is fantastic. I would like to earn more thousands of pounds.

10. How important is luck in terms of career success – have you had lucky breaks?

 

All success is an intangible mix of luck, circumstance, hard work, intelligence, people skills and Twitter. I have succeed despite all of these things.

11. Alan Davies has said that comedians fall into two categories - golfers and self-harmers. The former just get on with life, the latter are tortured artists. Which are you – or do you think you fit into a third category?

I am a self-harming golfer. 

12. Who is your favourite person ever and why - not including family or friends or other comedians?

 

I'm a big fan of Quentin Crisp. 

 

 

Absolutely not.
