The funniest sketch I’ve ever seen … Siblings – a hilarious London duo – do a sketch about two American soccer dads who have so much in common they end up getting together. I blew a funny fuse. The funniest book I’ve ever read … Boy George’s Take It Like a Man. I read it when I was in my teens – I remember thinking it was dangerously funny. The funniest TV show I’ve ever seen … PhoneShop: I’m so sad it’s not on any more. There’s one line my friends and I still say: “Manaman’s a Wagamama man.” I think that is one of the funniest sentences ever. The funniest film I’ve ever seen … Dolemite Is My Name: I was so excited to see Eddie Murphy in a comedic role again. I’ve watched it at least seven times, and each time it cracks me up. The funniest heckle I’ve ever had … That would be my sister coming to a gig of mine years ago, getting drunk and shouting out all my punchlines before I got to them. I think she thought she was helping me. I was like: “What the fuck are you doing? This is sabotage.” But she couldn’t help herself. The funniest item of clothing I’ve ever owned … I grew up in Brixton in the 90s, so any outfit I wore to Notting Hill carnival over a five-year period. I’d turn up thinking I looked like a dancehall queen but really it was more “urban morris dancer”. The funniest dream I’ve ever had … I was on an aeroplane, and me, Method Man from the Wu-Tang Clan and Sarah Jessica Parker were in a hot tub. I’m still wondering when it’s going to happen in real life. The funniest thing that shouldn’t be funny … When I was a model, I did a fashion show in Milan for Gucci and I fell on the runway three times. What kills me about this is that I’ve been doing standup for years now and I’m never going to top that.
