“I think pompous accents are inherently funnier.” — Matt Berry Quote

“I think pompous accents are inherently funnier.”

“Before doing 'Darkplace' in 2003, I was temping and at call centres, and that was pretty bad. Then I was at the London Dungeon, which I loved doing, and then from that, I was on Channel 4 doing 'Darkplace.'”

“Most of the things I do are inspired by things that frightened me when I was young.”

“There were eras of English music where people tried to rap in American accents and we lost our way.”

“It bloody annoys me when people forget that we're actors. Just because we tend to appear in things with our own accents, saying dialogue that comes naturally to us, people think we're just being ourselves.”

“I'm starting to play lots more naturalistic, realistic people than when I first started. Maybe because I was doing character comedy shows, and I was doing slightly weird, oddball characters with weird accents, those were the characters that I got cast to play - which made perfect sense.”
