Russell Brand interview

But very early on in the process of writing this show, before I had written or performed any of the stuff about my daughter, I spoke to Jimmy Carr. Jimmy said: "this is going to be a show about a mad person now having to live a normal life, it's going to be amazing to hear you talk about normal experiences."
