Someone told me that they didn't think could do it, so I proved them wrong.

Occasionally musical. Narrative. Personal. I think it's more social therapy than social commentary.

The men would like to think they are more than the women. I certainly don't have groupies asking for my autograph, but the boys get asked all the time. Young girls are nutty for boys doing comedy because comedians are more accessible [than rock stars].

When you're on stage and you have an audience really pumping, you're in control and I think that knowledge of being in control is alluring. But you don't have to be good looking and I'm sure it's a hindrance in some ways. It's certainly not important to me. If somebody didn't laugh at me one night I wouldn't go, "I need a boob job!"

I'd put myself on the telly, on every station, on every hour, just me.

People can't be shocked any more. That's the new taboo - somebody getting up and going, "Oh I'm not going to do anything shocking. I'm just going to be normal."

You have to have a sense of humour and I don't think everyone has one.

Lite entertainment doesn't tell you a fucking thing. Whereas a good comedian will give a point of view that changes the way you look at things.

When everyone laughs and the audience loves it.

There definitely is a new wave of people coming through. Now there is an identifiable group and there is more work.

I can only remember the last joke I heard. But it's an Irish joke for Irish people. I don't think anyone will get it.
