When my friends and I were sitting at the entrance afterwards talking about stuff he just sat with us and kept going till 2 am or so. Maybe I should go see his show on the 13th in London.

    His talking CDs are just hilarious. I love listening to them on the commute, and the other passengers must think you're an idiot if you sit round with a huge smile and occa
    • I used to listen to a variety of Henry's talking CDs on the bus into work. It was a struggle sometimes to stop the tears of laughter. I often wondered whether the passengers thought I was weirdo ... then again they would probably be right :)
