I'd much rather have sat there and just been a fly on the wall, instead of having to smile at people. I'd rather have been a waitress. Just gone round and stared at people.
No, sometimes we just have to take liberties because the idea was so good. I wish we'd just gone with the idea that Patsy had been a man. It would have been fantastic.
There were a lot of areas we didn't cover that I'm hoping to cover if we do some specials. One is to see more of Patsy's home and her home life, which is just the saddest thing.
But I think our humour is exactly the same today. Only, we've made rules now. We've said we are not going to do prosthetic make-up scenes, because when they take it off half your face comes off.
Lacroix has been fantastic. He's very nice. He gets the joke, and I think that's a good thing.
I love the TV show, and if you make a bad movie it means you've soiled it. Just like if we made an advert. We were offered so many times and I'd say, look, this is the good thing, and you can't compromise that, because then you compromise the integrity of the characters.
The reason they keep it so tight is that no one liked them, so that without each other, actually, they couldn't exist. They support each other. They support their flaws and everything else.
We had this party in New York, and there were a lot of gay men there dressed up as the characters. I showed up just looking like myself, but it was a real case of shame. They looked so fantastic. We could never quite live up to it.
We were watching the first series recently, and it has a charm, a kind of amateur charm. At that point we didn't involve ourselves technically at all - we just messed about and told our jokes - and it looks a bit like that.
My job gives me the attention I'd otherwise crave.
I think the idea of losing your hair is still very potent, emotional thing.
I'm a walkawayer. If someone brings me a really crap meal in a restaurant I will tell them it's wonderful and then just never go to the restaurant again. I think that's the best way to do it generally, rather than sit and fight and annoy your head. Just pretend to enjoy it and then leave.
I think people imagine that your fame somehow sort of equates with how much you get paid.
I used to take someone with me for the chemotherapy so I could do jokes. You always try and find something absurd.
I recommend a little dose of cancer to anyone.
Commissioners are obsessed with young people, which is funny because they don't watch telly - only old people do.
I did want a boy child because I had this romantic idea that a boy child when he's 16 takes his mother out for dinner.
I cannot do confrontation. You know that fight or flight thing? I'm flight. I just don't want the argument.
I absolutely love Scotland. I'm always happy there.
I think it is a bit harder for women starting in comedy.
