In England, I've Done A Whole Bunch

The Tabloids Operate In An Amoral Parallel Universe Where The Bottom Line Is Selling Newspapers.

To Me, I Like And Understand Ritual And I Think It Is Important. Things That We Do That Give Us Comfort Are Important. Like Christmas, I Like To Go Into A Church And Hear The Carols Sung. There's A Comfort Of Actually Going Inside Of A Church, I Find Them Serene. They're Unchanging.

I Love People Who Are Openly Gay In Theatre, Because They Have License To Do What They Like, And There's A Kind Of Artistic Liberal Tolerance Thing That Goes On.

I Love Sherlock Holmes. I've Got All His Books, Leather-bound. What I Thought Was Great About Sherlock Holmes Was That Not Only Was He A Supersleuth, He Was Also A Hard Worker. Not Only Did He Go Out And Solve The Crimes, He Came Home And Wrote It All Down. Fantastic. That's Why I Admire Him.

Comedy Can Be Silly And Gross And Offensive, As Long As There's Sort Of A Point. You Can Make A Joke That, On The Face Of It, Is Racist. Ostensibly Someone Can Appear To Be Racist, But If You Know You're Making A Point About Race, And Not Just Being Pig-headed, Then You Can Do That. I Think Some People Who Don't Understand Comedy Will Have A Knee-jerk Reaction To Some Stuff, And Will Always Be Offended By It Because They Don't Understand It. Some People React To It In A Vociferous Way, Which Is Unsophisticated, But There's Always Going To Be Those People Out There.
