  1. In the 1980s I was walking down a corridor in TV Centre when a make up artist ran after me shouting ā€˜Your ears!!! I must have them for my production!’ She took me off to a room where she did moulds of them, and they were used for all the creatures in The Chronicles of Narnia.

  5. Get you a man who’ll push pause on Stones of Blood, get up, fetch a pint glass, catch a GIANT FECKING HOUSE SPIDER you hadn’t even noticed, usher it out the window, top up your whisky, and restart the disc without saying a word…

    That, my friends, is true love
