If you are a great dramatic actor then you often don't know if people are enjoying your stuff at all because they are sitting there in silence. But with comedy it's a simple premise. If it's funny, people laugh. If it's not, they don't.
— Steve Coogan
I am of the very last generation who didn't have computers at school. As we grow old we'll become something of an aberration.
I always find it easier to portray myself as being unlikeable and idiotic; to actually play a character that is likeable and engages the audience is far more difficult. It's a more subtle kind of challenge.
Actors say they do their own stunts for the integrity of the film but I did them because they looked like a lot of fun.
