I’m not a comedian. I don’t do stand-up. I don’t tell jokes. I’m a comedic actor, and approach my work that way. The comedy comes through the character Picture Quote #1

And what is the reaction of the British politcal class? Well the Lib Dems, still think that the Euro is a success! I don’t quiet think where Cleggy gets this from, I don’t know. Prehaps he is cosidering an alternative career, as a stand up comedian, once he’s out of politics Picture Quote #1

It’s also that comedians don’t have the kind of narcissism that actors have. They’re writers who perform their own material. It’s more interesting. And they’re sexy because they risk more. Stand-up comedians risk more than anyone Picture Quote #1

I started as a stand-up comedian. I wanted to be Carol Burnett when I was growing up Picture Quote #1
