My brother: I never meant to kill your pet frog. I thought I was doing a good deed cleaning the mossy tank with bleach. Can I also say sorry to the frog?
My parents, for my new show.
It would be my mum. She was a terrible alcoholic and I spent a lot of my time kind of hating her but, in the past five years, I realised why she did what she did and I could forgive.
My kids. I think if you don’t want to say sorry to your kids you’ve been an appalling parent.
As someone who was kind.
The internet going down – but not just for me, for everyone.
Absolutely none. I’ve had three run-ups at Captain Corelli’s Mandolin and I conclude it must be boring because I’ve never finished it.
It used to be loneliness, and it might still be.
Every morning when I go into our three-year-old’s room. He’s so happy to see you, it’s a moment of heaven.
Big. Funny. Man.
