NICK FROST

How do you woo? I have one of those blow-dart guns that they use for putting pandas to sleep at the zoo. I’ll probably set that up and get it into the wife’s rump. It’s how I won her over. Do you feel confident with the opposite sex? My mother had eight sisters, so women weren’t mystical beasts I was terrified of. Worst date you’ve ever been on? I went out for dinner once with a girl and we had octopus. At one point she went, ‘Urgh, I can’t believe I’m eating its obstacles.’ I knew at that point it didn’t have far to go. What advice would you give your 18-year-old self? Keep going. When you’re young your emotions are so raw, but give it a year and things won’t seem so important. What keeps you up in the middle of the night? I have a recurring dream of being trapped in a research facility with 50 giant gorillas rampaging around outside. When have you felt at your sexiest? Right now, sitting here in my pants. I’ll send you a selfie. What’s the funniest thing you’ve read about yourself? That Simon Pegg and I specifically bred a golden retriever to give to Paul McCartney as a present. Is there a book that changed the way you thought about things? Delia’s How to Cook or Larousse Gastronomique. I read recipe books to look at the techniques employed. Who would play you in the film of your life? Ray Winstone. Or let’s not cast for type and go for a really small woman — Kristen Stewart would do. What did you buy with your first pay cheque? I have a sneaking suspicion that I gave it to my mum. What’s been your biggest fashion mistake? I just have no relationship with clothing. I get dressed so people don’t egg me in the street, or go, ‘Mummy, look at the gorilla!’ Do you have any piercings? I got my tongue done when I was 25. Do you have any superstitions? I count the segments on my fingers. If they don’t add up to 28, I have to start again. What would you eat for your last supper? A big bucket of fried chicken from KFC and I wouldn’t share it with anyone. I don’t see the point of feeling guilty when I’m just about to die. Cuban Fury is out next Friday
