| 1 | [on Elton John's role writing the score for stage musical Billy Elliot] Elton sees a little bit of himself in Billy. |
| 2 | I'm what you'd call ethnically Catholic. Don't believe in God, still hate Rangers... |
| 3 | [on being referred to a middle-aged, 2006] "I get that a lot, but I'm only 34, for f***'s sake! But then, I've had that all my life; I'm used to it. I've always looked older than I am, like everybody's dad. When I was nine, I looked eleven, and so on. I've never been ID'd in bars - never. Once, I based an entire show on me looking older than I was. I got the audience to guess my age: the average turned out to be 37. I was 29 at the time." |
| 4 | The game of comedy is all about owning the stage, and from a physical point of view, it's beneficial that I am a larger man. From my lumbering presence alone, I can't really help 'but' dominate the stage. |
