JACQUELINE MIFSUD

- COMEDIAN

I was happiest when … I broke into CERN, the European Organisati­on for Nuclear Research, in Geneva with some particle physicists to see their Hadron Collider. You wouldn’t know it but … I floss twice a day unless I’m drunk, then I cover my hand in toothpaste and rub it around my gums. My most embarrassi­ng moment … was when I fell off a seat in church and piddled myself. Any excuse to get out of church, I was only seven but I was onto it. The last time I cried was … last week when I had food poisoning, everything was coming out of everywhere. The last book I read was … Eddie Izzard’s Believe Me: A Memoir of Love, Death and Jazz Chickens. My favourite films are … I’m not good at choosing favourites but I recently re-watched Parenthood and bloody loved it, it really holds up. Give it a squiz. really want to … shave my head and go on a quest. My guilty pleasure is … drinking herbal tea in my giant royal blue dressing gown. Life has taught me … to love nothing and trust no one. I’m about to … walk 30 minutes to Officework­s to print 12 pages, the world is my gym. My first job was … making caramelise­d popcorn in a tiny store in a shopping centre. What I enjoy most about my work is … that people pay me to be me, I never knew that ‘Silly Sausage’ was a career option.
