I wouldn’t say I deplore it, but I’m fairly stubborn.

Fake eyelashes.

When you wake up in the middle of the night with a horrible hangover and need a drink so badly. Its the journey from your room to the kitchen.

On what occasion do you lie?

Most occasions. By accident though.

Which living person do you most despise?

Jodie Marsh. I can imagine she appears on these kinds of lists a lot.

What or who is the greatest love of your life?

Big Tim Riggins from Friday Night Lights.

When and where were you happiest?

Benicassim last summer. Amazing festival. Free bar.

Which talent would you most like to have?

I’d like to able to play an entire show on stilts so I could walk into the crowd like a giant.

Productive.

What do you consider your greatest achievement?

My eyebrows. They’re unbelievably symmetrical.

If you were to die and come back as a person or a thing, what do you think it would be?

A scorpion recently appeared to me out of a drink I’d just spilled so that’s obviously the plan for me.

Thankfully nothing springs to mind.

Erm, a singer?

Stubbornness.

Just because you love Arrested Development, does not mean you will love those characters in a different show.
