I Was On Various Anti-depressants,

I Was On Various Anti-depressants, But Not For Long - I Didn't Function Very Well On Them. I Felt Sort Of Flattened Out.

Well, I Don't Ever Get Excited. I Haven't Been Excited Since I Got A Chopper Bicycle When I Was About 12. Once You Get Older You Realise There's Always A Catch To Everything. So When I Get, Say, A Commission To Make A Tv Show, The Catch Is That You Have To Deliver Something And Then The Sense Of Responsibility Overwhelms The Joy Of The Occasion.

But I Like Going To Church. If You've Been Brought Up In The Church Of England, It Feels Like Visiting An Elderly Relative. And I Think It's Important That Part Of The Kids' Education Is Knowing About The Bible.

I Have Had Issues With Depression All My Life, And It's Probably True To Say There Was A Tendency Towards It Even When I Was Very Young, During My Schooldays. There Was Often - And This Is Quite Common With Comics - A Sense Of Not Feeling As If I Belonged Anywhere.

One Of My Friends Went On A Murder Weekend, Now He Is Doing Life For It.
