What’s the show about?
Basically me being as funny as possible for 20 minutes. Whatever it takes. I am doing a UK tour in the autumn so the set needs to be funny for people to come and see a full show!
Who’s your comedy hero?
Growing up it was Alan Davies. They say never to meet your heroes but I’ve met him and he’s a lovely bloke, and well funny. Plus, he’s an Arsenal fan, too, which always helps. Who is the funniest person you’ve ever met? My mates when we’re down the pub – no one is as funny as your mates once you’ve had a few beers!
What is your favourite joke?
One of my dad’s old ones: why does a squirrel swim upside down? To keep his nuts dry. I could never do it onstage but it makes me smile.
What is the strangest show you’ve ever done?
At a Caribbean restaurant, literally no one listened [to me] they just ignored me. I felt like an over-confident waiter.
