The comedian and actor on her enthusiasm for pruning and the journals she sacrificed to a backyard incinerator
, this time with Matt Okine as the video-game-playing manchild who moves back home after a breakup and Denise Scott as his widowed mother, Maggie.
To quell her nerves about stepping into such a well-known role, she’s taken to gardening – using her favourite pair of secateurs. Here, the comedian tells us about those prized pruners and stories of two other important belongings.An artwork made by my daughter, Bonnie Lane. She is a visual artist who spent many years living an edgy, no doubt wild existence in Berlin, LA and New York .
A while ago, she returned home for a visit and her father and I commissioned an artwork. Bonnie disappeared into our back shed and emerged five weeks later with the most magnificent piece, featuring an 18th-century woman calmly seated doing some embroidery while a man’s decapitated head rests on the floor in the corner.
It looks like a painting but is in fact made with thousands and thousands of tiny beads that Bonnie painstakingly glued to the canvas. It’s exquisite and irreplaceable and God knows it cost us a fortune.My secateurs – bright red handles, big black blades, good quality, no expense spared. As I’ve always said, what’s the point of having cheap, crap secateurs?I’m mad for a bit of pruning.
