Quotes
- “...and I've had to call somebody who purports to be some sort of boiler man...am I just unlucky or are plumbers evil lying bags of shit?”
- “Do you know what's odd and weird and strange - a democracy with a fucking Queen...Piers Morgan, who's a cock anyway...sweaty faced bollix.”
- “For me snowboarding is basically like being beaten up by a mountain.”
- “An isobar of emos. If anybody needs that explaining to them, it's because they are linked by their depression.”
- “It's a DVD, and some of it might be shown on TV, so I'll be keeping it clean. There'll be no swearing, bad language or dirty talk. No, no, none of that. Because as my mother always says, "if you have to swear to get laughs, then you're obviously a cunt."”
- “Trying to separate cigarettes and alcohol, that's against God's will!”
