Holly burn
6. What do your parents/children (delete as applicable) think of your job?
 
I didn't no I had kidz?! How did that happen? Me parents would be dead shocked I had a job. They would also be surprised I had kids n all. There's a lot for them to learn in this interview. I hope they're siting down when they read it... Me mam doesn't deal well with surprises. 

7. What’s the worst thing about being a comedian?

I don't know - ask one!

 
8. I think you are very good at what you do (that’s why I’m asking these questions). What do you think of you?

I'm alright like. There are things I'm good at n things i'm not. I'm good at brushing me hair but not good at crossing the road. 

9. How much do you earn and how much would you like to earn?
 
I earn a bob or two. From me mam n dad. They see us alright. I 'd like to earn enough to buy one of them giant Chuppa Chups one day. I'd let me mam n dad have a lick.
 
10. How important is luck in terms of career success – have you had lucky breaks?

No breaks are lucky. For example my breakdown wasn't that lucky.  I had a break up wot wasn't lucky. I did park on a hill the other day and I was rolling backwards.. until i put the hand break on just in time. That was lucky.  
 

11. Alan Davies has said that comedians fall into two categories - golfers and self-harmers. The former just get on with life, the latter are tortured artists. Which are you – or do you think you fit into a third category?

Isn't golf self harm? I feel asleep whilst playing it once. it was like some horrible form of torture. Whenever I see little holes now, in Polos or in bottoms i have to have a little lie down... as it brings back  horrible memories.

 
12. Who is your favourite person ever and why - not including family or friends or other comedians? 

Percy Pig. Cos he's soft, comforting and comes in loads of different colours so he's like a little example of all the peeps all over the world
 

13. Do you keep your drawers tidy and if not why not?
