When my wife Lorraine and I got together in 1990. We were in a play at the Royal Exchange theatre in Manchester when we suddenly realised we were falling in love.
Most recently, going to a 1D concert at Wembley with my nine-year-old daughter. Seeing her dream becoming real. The highlight was meeting a nice man in the elevator when it was over, who gave her Harry's autograph. Turned out to be his dad. To my daughter that was like meeting the archangel Gabriel.
Now, because of my marriage and because since September 2019 I’ve been free of clinical depression.
Professionally, it has to be when I got my third star.
Most of the people that saw me do comedy between the years 2007 and 2012.
I have a Stratocaster, which is part of my long, doomed ambition to become Jimi Hendrix.
Anything from the concept of human mortality to a faux pas I made at a party in 2005.
Something in comedy. It was either this or Jimi Hendrix.
I learned how to play The Wind Cries Mary guitar solo.
As the man who never died.
