The funniest sketch I’ve ever seen …
The late Foster Brooks played the greatest drunk ever and the pilot sketch with Dean Martin is a work of art. It should be studied in universities.
The funniest film I’ve ever seen …
Funny People with Seth Rogen and Adam Sandler … killer lines and it nails what it’s like to be a comedian, from starting out to super-fame.
The funniest heckle I’ve ever had …
In Aberdeen. I asked this guy his name and he said: “Tom, I’ve come to all your shows and you don’t even know my name. I’m getting a beer and you think about it.” Then he went to get a beer.
The funniest hairstyle I’ve ever had …
Thompson Twins were at their height of fame and I came back to my mountain home in Quesnel with gelled, spiked hair and frosted tips.
My funniest item of clothing …
Almost everything I put on in the 80s, from tight nylon parachute pants to my desert cap. I was a looker. And to be the guinea pig for acid-wash jeans was a pleasure.
The funniest meal I’ve ever eaten …
My friend Joanna once served me a half stalk of steamed broccoli.
The funniest number …
Infinity – I can’t imagine it. It tickles my brain.
The funniest dream I’ve ever had …
I only have nightmares, so if you find it funny that I’m a child being trapped in a hole until I suffocate, then … I like your sick, dark sense of humour.
