"I like getting changed on stage and taking my sweaty stuff off so folks can see I'm just a balding 51-year-old bloke with a load of cables to tidy up. I'm not totally covered in taffeta by the way, just my cuffs and pointy collar thingy, whatever it's called. It's not particularly that I'm in character either. I see people start to laugh when I put the foul smelling mouldy costume on, and that's surely a good thing." - Paddy Steer
