flamboyant quite top
When I'm on stage, I'm quite over the top - I'm quite flamboyant and camp.
acted bad nativity plays school shakespeare wrote
I acted at school but got very bad parts - things that they'd made up in Shakespeare plays like 'Guard 17' - so I wrote plays and gave myself parts, then I wrote sketches, then I did stand-up. Even in the school nativity I was the emu in the manger.
bit chair
Part of doing stand-up is to get things off your chest. It's a bit like being in a psychiatrist's chair - but more enjoyable.
I eat healthily, as it keeps my energy up.
love
Live stand-up is my thing. I love being on stage and just messing around.
except lady tragic
My mother giving birth to me was just like Lady Sybil giving birth, except that there wasn't such a tragic ending.
amazing bit brilliant cruise people tom
I wish I was a bit shorter, as I think shorter people have better walks. Freddie Fox, the actor, is shorter than me and has an amazing gait; and Tom Cruise has a brilliant run. I'm just gangly.
audition casting director
I was the first person in the world to audition for 'The Hobbit'. The casting director told me that when I went in. That's a lot of pressure, isn't it? The first person in the world.
mother giving birth
I love Downton Abbey. It's just great. My mother giving birth to me was just like Lady Sybil giving birth, except that there wasn't such a tragic ending.
funny sausage comedy
This sausage roll only contains 2% of your daily intake of calories... if you lick it.
funny play littles
Oh, you wanna do a little bit of roleplay? Could you just play dead?
careers talking months
For the first six months of my stand-up career, I was talking like Danny Dyer. I was doing a lot of 'alright guvnors?' It wasn't true to who I was.
honesty thinking people
I think people respect honesty rather than hiding it.
writing thinking ideas
I want to write a film. I need to think of the right idea and focus on that; I love writing.
