I didn't think I had time for fishing before I fished.
I wouldn't wish it on people but there is a positive side to a near-death experience. People used to ask me do you fancy doing this or that - and it was like I had a file of reasons in my head for not doing things. I would riffle through it until I found one. But I've dropped that.
Laughter is the only currency I've really ever known. Ever since I was a boy.
I go on 'Sunday Brunch' and Simon Rimmer's mashed potato is like heaven.
I want people to watch us and think, 'They're idiots. They're clowns,' I want them to watch us and think Tommy Cooper or Spike Milligan.
I've been brewing my own beer with this ex-army bloke.
House of Fools,' that was the first thing I was sad that we couldn't do any more.
You know the thing I liked about fishing when I was 14 was being out with your mates mucking about, throwing bread around, getting a bit wet maybe.
After heart surgery you can go two ways, you can kind of get scared, shrink on to your sofa and keep yourself safe, or you can engage with life again. I probably was in danger of taking the first option.
I'm not a fan of stand-up comedy, personally. But some of them are incredibly skilled.
Our comedy is just falling over, funny faces, arguments, all the comedy basics, really.
I saw Alan Davies on a show from the London Palladium and he did a nice routine about having kids or whatever. I couldn't do that.
I used to like getting cups and putting tiny bits of food and liquids in them. I'd grow mould plumes in the dark wardrobe of my little back bedroom. Not to eat them, mind - just to admire the growing power.
I'd always wanted to do something about football, so I did the podcast.
It's like cooks don't watch cooking programmes - I suppose maybe comedians don't watch comedy shows.
I can't remember ever cooking food to impress a woman. The idea's quite cheesy and sort of makes my skin crawl. But I sometimes make a special effort to impress my cats, with chicken liver or something. It's tricky to know if a cat's impressed. They might give me a little look, a glimpse at least. That's cat ownership for you.
We miss 'House of Fools' a lot. It felt a bit like a different and fresh show for British TV.
I was a solicitor once, so I'm truly grateful because I know what it's like to have a proper job.
After my triple bypass I got my sheet of healthy and unhealthy foods and I was like, croissants!?! Literally as bad as lard.
There's nothing better than just staring at a buttercup, struggling to make an impact on the world.
