I wasn't an extroverted kid. I was very academic and very introverted.

When you're a kid, you don't want to be teased.

Sometimes my mum is very disapproving of my comedy.

I think I appear very innocent and soft, but I'm actually very dark and edgy. It's a weird dichotomy.

I like to have the stamina to work 16 hours a day. I may eat a lot, but I am very healthy.

I wrote my own play, 'The Westie Monologues,' about where I'm from in Australia, and it was very successful. From that, I started getting offers from television.
