The Brusier cast were almost all people we knew from Cambridge whom we’d introduced to Nick and David: Collie [Olivia Coleman], Matthew Holness and Charlotte Hudson. The only stranger in the cast was Martin Freeman, of whom we were consequently suspicious and whose naturalistic and charismatic performance style was immediately annoyingly entertaining.

Martin Freeman is absolutely brilliant. That was one of the first things I saw.

I think people just like seeing friendship. I think people like seeing people who just drive each other up the wall, but at same time, can’t live without each other. You see it in Waiting For Godot and Steptoe And Son, that’s everything, especially involving two blokes who want to kill each other, but ultimately, where else are they going to go?

Freeman even remembers the first outfit he bought with his own money. “I was 15,” he says, “and it was a Prince of Wales three-button mod jacket bought from a local mod shop.

“I had matching trousers from Oxfam, a Ben Sherman shirt, loafers from Hobbs and an umbrella. People used to ask me, ‘Why do you dress like that?’ They were genuinely puzzled.”

The great thing about getting older is that you learn not to care about being cool. I’m happy with who I am, I know what I like and I can’t see myself changing… not for a little while, at least.

The funny thing about the acting business is that there are more poofs in it than you can have hot dinners thrown at you, but no one is out. It’s not so bad here, but in Hollywood - Jesus Christ. Why don’t they just admit it? No one cares if they’re gay or not. I certainly don’t. In this so-called liberal industry, no one has the guts to come out because of “the box office”, but someone has to be the first in the firing line. Without the suffragettes a lot of women would have thought, ‘Why should we have the vote?’ And I think that the same argument exists today. People should stand up and be counted.

There’s no reason to suppose that old music will be better or worse. It’s just from another era, which might be as relevant or irrelevant as what’s happening now.

If a 16-year-old today loves Catherine Tate, The League Of Gentlemen and Little Britain, they’d love Kenneth Williams and Dick Emery. That’s where Matt [Lucas] and Dave [Walliams] got all that from: great British camp, which no other country has.

I did have a hip-hop period, I dressed a bit like that in 1990, but after a while I thought, ‘Nah, back to the white Levi’s.’

I cry at RSPCA commercials on the telly,” he said. “I think you just have to let it go.”
So it’s no surprise to discover that as a schoolboy he was deeply affected by a festive visit to the cinema.
He revealed: “I saw ET and it made me cry for weeks. I was almost too moved.
“I think I was paralysed with emotion. I thought about it for weeks.
“The last time I saw it on telly I cried. I was watching with my three year-old son Joe, who had never seen it before. He couldn’t take his eyes off it. It was moving seeing it through his eyes.
