This much I know: Matt Lucas (interview)

I tweet. I'm RealMattLucas on Twitter. I try to avoid constant tweets - an interval of a week or two may go by between them, which is a Twitter lifetime. That may explain why I currently have 30,000 followers - about a million less than Aston Kutcher.
If you look at the events of my life - "he was six when he lost his hair, 10 when his parents divorced, 12 when his dad went to prison" - and you keep going, it reads like a litany of woe. But what that doesn't tell you is that there were many happy times in between - West End debut at 14, getting into the National Youth Theatre at 16, etc. Full interview...
