I love doing comedy. I find comedy quite hard work. Comedy’s underrated, I think, by actors, you know? It’s difficult to get it right and get it funny. I really enjoy doing it. I kind of wish I’d done it more. I can’t complain. I’ve had a fair crack of the whip.
My dinner spot is usually in front of the TV. I’ll grill a steak and whip up a salad and watch ‘Hoarders’. I love it because a) I’m kind of voyeuristic, and b) every time I see an episode, I go to the one room where all my unpacked boxes wound up, and I throw out a box of stuff.

The Chief Whip’s job is trying to make sure that the Government – and MPs elected as part of the governing party – deliver the promises that they were elected on. That’s a healthy part of the democratic process.
