Daughter Molly (b. 1994).

Once played in a band called 'The Forgotten Five'

Says that character 'Malcolm' often refered to in stand-up shows (the man who seems to always work in different jobs like outside McDonalds and as a trolley collector) was created based on a man he saw in a service station. He was a man cleaning the floor with a v-mop he describes the man as looking like 'a lobotomy patient wearing skis on a pebble beach at high tide'.

His break came in 1988 at the Edinburgh Festival

For his role as a paranoid murder suspect in "Freeze Frame", he had to shave off ALL his body hair…including his eyebrows, despite warnings that they might not grow back. (They have!)

Wanted to live in Los Angeles after he won a comedians competition, very early in his career.
