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.
along behave people public ruins school society
Society is so divided in its perception of public school people. Most people who went to public school behave in the right way, but every now and then there will be someone who comes along and ruins it.
honesty thinking people
I think people respect honesty rather than hiding it.
thinking people beard
I hope people think of me as a bit older. I do have a beard. That makes me look very old.
acts buffet carving club comedy gig people served side turkey
I did a gig at a comedy club in Bournemouth where they served a buffet while the acts were on. There was the clang of people carving turkey during the set. If you put comedy and turkey side by side, turkey always wins.
people
I'm very conscious of other people's opinions and of people not liking me.
definitely jokes
I've definitely become smuttier. When I first started out, I had these aspirations: 'I'm not going to do jokes about anything crude because I'm bigger and better than that.' But then, I don't know... It makes me laugh, so I started doing it.
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.
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.
I eat healthily, as it keeps my energy up.
life quite
I have got a fantastic life and I just like to get on with it, and I am quite a private person.
constantly
I'd like to scale back the television. I'm constantly told that I'm over-exposed, and I don't want to end up like Carol Vorderman.
comics jokes met order prefer routines sit
Some comics have long routines to get them in the mood - I just prefer to sit down, write out the same jokes in a different order and then have a little prayer that I won't be met by silence.
