Alexander: I'd like to be the first British curling champion!
(edit)
Sarah: (about her character Susan) Susan is very tolerant - I would have booted Steve out years ago!
(edit)
Alexander: Having started in theatre, for a long time I wanted to be a classical actress. But I've always loved making people laugh - at school I was quite mischievous and bit by bit I found myself working more and more in comedy.
(edit)
Alexander: In my spare time I like to practice my curling and walk the dog I don't have.
(edit)
Sarah: (about her character Susan) It's great fun coming back because we really enjoy ourselves. My character is very grounded, sorted and confident in her sexuality. Her comedy comes from her directness, which means she sometimes puts her foot in it, but you always know where you are with her. She's a good-time girl who enjoys her life and her man. I've certainly learned a few lessons from her about self-belief, but we also catch glimpses of her being slightly insecure, out of her depth, which is very funny.
