How did you get into comedy?
I joined a sketch group, went to the Edinburgh fringe, and then kept doing that for years. It’s a good place to try and get better, to work out what you’re doing.
Who were your early influences?
When I first moved to London I watched Paul Foot a lot. You need to see Paul Foot. He’s unique. I would think: “What on earth could I do that would be half as funny as that?”
