“I was directing before I started doing 'The IT Crowd.' It wasn't somet...” — Richard Ayoade Quote

I was directing before I started doing 'The IT Crowd.' It wasn't something that led on after acting I guess. I was sort of doing this stuff before acting.

I don't really know what my personality is anyway. I don't really have one.

I suppose I sort of like effects that have some organic elements rather than ones that are entirely generated by a computer. Just because, no matter how complex the algorithm is, it's still an algorithm.

I've only ever really been in shows of friends, so I don't know exactly what happened. I think I'm incredibly cheap to hire. That can buy some traction. I'm as cheap as it's possible for an actor to be legally.

Do not mistake a crowd of big wage-earners for the leisure class.

Getting booed sucks, man. It's not fun. It's a lonely feeling, especially when it's your home crowd.

I definitely like performing to a crowd that's there to see a female hero.

I was never part of the crowd.

Ocampo is very dangerous because he has nothing to lose. I want a guy who's going to test me so the crowd gets its money's worth.
