I guess it would have to take place on Bakewell Road, halfway between Darley Dale and Matlock. And I'm going to say Matlock would win, because it's the best place in the universe. Although Darley Dale does have a good chippy, so well done for that.

I liked going to the Christian camps, partly because there were activities like pond-dipping and rock climbing - it was really fun camping. In terms of religion, they didn't make any difference to what I feel now, which is that I'm not really sure what there is or if there is anything. But pond-dipping whilst singing O Come All Ye Faithful isn't a bad thing.

No.

Each panel show is different, and the ones I like doing the most are when there's a game involved - like Would I Lie to You, or 8 out of 10 Cats Does Countdown. Like anything, there are very good and bad panel shows, but if you get the format right and the comics are free to improvise in the way they want to, they can be really good.

Shameless was like being in a massive, very colourful family. It had been running for a long time, but unlike Peep Show, because it filmed for a lot longer it had a permanent office and you had a permanent dressing room. So I got to know the other actors very well. At the time it felt like I was going to school - you'd go in a minibus and have breakfast in the canteen, and ask how someone's date went last night.

I was a bit sad not to be in every episode, but then I think that Dobby had such a good run of it overall, and Sam and Jesse did everything they could with that character. It was such an epic show to be involved in, and when I remember it, I remember my whole time being such fun. It's diplomatic, but it's the truth!

Yes I did singing lessons and guitar lessons for many years growing up, and also I went to Guildford school of acting. I did audition for GuildHALL but when they asked me for my favourite shows I said pantomimes. I think they were hoping I'd say Pinter, and I didn't get in.

I did a lot of dance and singing and music stuff there, and I did try to go into music when I graduated, but my songs were a bit weird for that music world. I had a song about an accountant called Martin who used to smear himself with the contents of a fryup every night. It wasn't really funny, or making a satirical statement, and it was a bit weird - it was enough to make people say: you don't belong on the music circuit. Other people would do songs about relationships - I was always trying to play a character or tell a story. So it felt like a natural move to go towards the comedy circuit, and make the songs funny.

My voice isn't a musical theatre voice either. Though I did do a musical called the A-Z of Mrs P, but I regarded that as a play with songs in it, rather than a cheesy musical.

I don't really look at online stuff. I don't look at forums or anything about "sexy geeks" which may exist. And it doesn't change my ability to do geeky things unfortunately - I'm still no good at science or computers. There was one Peep Show scene where I had to mend a computer in the background and I just kept pressing ctrl-alt-delete.

Sadly not. I absolutely loved doing both series but I didn't feel I had enough male voices in me to do a third. And I had run out of stories from my personal life that felt relevant to that show. I tried to write an episode when I got together with my boyfriend and it didn't work - I realised I had to be having various dating mishaps alongside my characters' for the show to work.

Curry (Thai green). Both together. DMs.

Hi Theo. Despite it all, they were halcyon days. I loved working in Oddbins, and as a result I got the equivalent of GNVQ in wine tasting - that's true! Due to the constant wine tasting, I don't remember the time the guy phoned from the shower, but I may have blocked it out. Yes I did throw up in a shoe on the way back from a Christmas party, it was my housemate Hannah's shoe. And she didn't want it back.

Trust me. I think sometimes, all being well, everyone's working together and it runs smoothly and you're working towards a common goal - there's a bed of trust underneath everything. But what sometimes happens is for various reasons, often time constraints, it might be that people say "go this, go there, say it like this" - that's always less fulfilling when you feel that you're working together and there's a feeling of freedom.

I don't think of myself as a nerdy heroine but that's very nice of you to say. I always thought of Dobby as someone who worked in IT and spoke her mind, but I'm always happy when people who are nerdy say they like the character - and I'd love to have her in Batman!

I think if you've got a personal view on something and have something to say about it, that's enough. And with the ASMR documentary, I didn't set out to make it funny, because it was commissioned through documentaries, and because we had Joe Lycett and Rhodri Marsden that bit was lighter and funnier. The links I tried to make quite snappy. I'm glad you thought of it as comedy! That documentary was really about me exploring something really personal to me that ended up chiming with a lot of people who didn't know the feeling had a name. Everyone had a view on it which was really what I wanted.

I think if you're funny and you work really hard, it'll all be ok. I haven't ever thought about being a woman, and I don't think it's good to get caught up in thinking about it - I prefer to just create stuff. The good thing about being a writer and actor is you can write things you can be in - if I wasn't a writer I might feel differently. In scripts there tends to be an imbalance - the men do the funny stuff and the women stand with their hands on their hips. But in terms of standup, the way the land lies now, if you gig as much as you can, and you're funny, you'll be ok.

You can only go in excited about what you've got to say - if you go in thinking about how they're going to view your clothes or gender or hair, that's not the right angle to have. It's not my problem if people view me differently from a man, it's not something I ever think about.

Thanks, it was a really weird feeling to be behind the audience, but I enjoyed the ouija board bit. And I think Simon Munnery is a fantastic and inventive comic who's just about the only person who could put on a gig like this.

For me it didn't feel like a big jump from standup to writing, in terms of my brain coming up with the content, but the actual writing discipline is very different. With standup you can try it out that night if you want to, so you might have written a character of a Russian trainspotter and you can do it that night, whereas with writing a book at first it felt strange not to be bouncing it off anyone. But once I got into it I really enjoyed it. And I had to get up each morning, not look at my phone or email or talk to anyone, and then write 2000 words. Then I'd allow myself to be Ms Pacman for the rest of the day.

I would love to see Dr Brown write something - what he does on stage is unique and he doesn't use words in the way a standup does, so I'd love to see what he'd put on paper.

I don't think that was me! It must have been my techno-loving doppelganger. But weirdness is always good.

No way. He is a God.

I didn't really think of them as cringey, as when you're filming a script you're just thinking about doing it as convincingly as you can. As long as know understand what the character is doing, it only seems cringy from the outside. That said, the stationary cupboard scene was awkward to film because we were in an actual cupboard and I'd only just met David. We were pleased when that was done.

I might be remembering this wrongly, but I think Matlock had the first ever tram. That might not be true. But this is true: there's a raft race every Boxing Day on the river Derwent where people make their own rafts and race down the river, and one year a guy made a machine that could fire kiwi fruits and would fire them at people to slow them down. His mates had a raft in the race, and they employed him to stand on the shore. He definitely got told off.

This guy sounds incredible, apart from the burning industrial waste bit. I sometimes carry sandwich bags with hard boiled eggs in them, and have been known to smash them against the wall to break them open - so I like the sound of this guy. I'm hoping he's related to the Hackney Mole Man, who burrowed under his own very expensive house near where I used to live in Dalston to create a series of tunnels.

Pie filling: I think chicken and mushroom. Classic 80s filling. It's got to be from a chip shop as well.
