I could develop a brand called B, for men with big bums - I'd go on 'Dragons' Den' and give them my side profile.

I'd like to design clothes, even just for myself, because my shape doesn't always lend itself to the things I like.

When I was starting out I did vox pops for a late-night TV show. I went to interview this guy, and before I'd even said anything he went: 'Poor man's Sacha Baron Cohen.' I immediately broke character.

I think with the best characters, you want to see them go on a journey, Partridge being the best example of that.

You have to focus on doing the best job you can do.

I'm trying to manufacture slapstick in my own flat by leaving things out to trip up over, on the off-chance I can be inspired by that.

It's literally important for a show like 'Stath' to get awards, because it validates a recommission.

I grew up on 'The Timewaster Letters' and 'Look Around You.'

Critique is good as long as you're hearing it from a person who you know you're in sync with.

I think my parents are both very funny in their own right. Sometimes intentionally, and sometimes not which tends to be the case with most families.

If you know your character inside out then that's when improv starts to sound good. But improv to me can be as much as throwing a different word into a sentence.

Stath has wanted to be a dad since he was born, but has never once looked into what fatherhood entails.

Stath will definitely love his child. But he will also definitely be a horrendous father.

Manchester has a wonderful vibe and I really like Oxford.

On my first ever date I went to the Odeon Barnet to go and see 'The Others' with Nicole Kidman.

I know it's considered smug to even mention that you've left a social media platform.

I have been defined by my disinterest in football my whole life.

Stath' series three was released as a boxset. That's something that I was scared of doing in the past because it felt like it didn't fit the narrative of the TV watching experience I had as a kid.

I remember knowing it was a bad idea, but I loved the Spice Girls and I kinda confused that love for wanting to be them. My mum asked me what shoes I wanted and I convinced her that the school would allow me to wear platform Converse. And I was already the tallest kid in school.

The opposite of sports is comedy, I guess, in a lot of ways.
