“From the stage I’ve seen people of all ages absolutely roaring at really good toilet humour.”

People saying it is childish and pretending it is beneath them

We had so much fun in Ghana and they are really lovely people.

Who are always getting things wrong, are much more endearing than comedians who are sassy and smart.

They feel they have to look after their image.

You’re entering dangerous land when you start theorising about comedy.

We only have one agenda, which is to make ’em laugh their pants off.

Because we all fail – and I’m ready, I’ll take up carpentry.

I’m waiting for the time when I fail

On stage, we just want to generate hysteria. We don’t care about looking cool or posing.

Performers like Tommy Cooper

I remember once having to stop performing when I thought an elderly man a few rows back from the front was actually going to die because he was laughing so hard.

Unless they are girls, of course, when it is to make them laugh their bras off so we can get a quick look.

But there is no doubting the effectiveness of a really good willy gag.

Most modern comedy is crap.

There is a lot of rubbish written about toilet humour

A lot of people are obsessed with looking cool.

Man is too near all kinds of beasts,–a fawning dog, a roaring lion, a thieving fox, a robbing wolf, a dissembling crocodile, a treacherous decoy, and a rapacious vulture.
