I think most of my tastes were British, as far as comedy went, when I was growing up.

And I grew up watching all the British ones so when you hear that from an early age, it makes it much easier than you guys who don't grow up with Australian television or British television.

I don't tend to watch too many American comedies. I love British comedy.

I watched a lot of comedy growing up.

British comedy - which has been a big inspiration to me for many years - is very different to Australian comedy and different again to American comedy.

I don't watch much British television at all. I mean, it's ironic because I used to work in it for years.

When I do watch things, they tend to be a lot of comedies. I actually like some of the British comedy series. But, on the whole, I'm not a huge viewer of anything.

I'm from Norway, but I always felt like I'd grown up with British culture. We had everything from the BBC on our TV, so British drama seems very close to home.

British comedy fans go crazy.

There is so much cross-pollination between the U.S. and Britain in terms of comedians. British TV comedies work well in the U.S. American stand-ups make it big in Britain.
