Hello there Alex,
no, i don't think you are insane at all. It's a bit difficult to say really, it's a lot of hard work (believe me). I started off at Bristol Uni, which is nice, but that doesn't give you a card into showbiz in any way, so i just got out there, gota show together, and very slowly, but surely earned a reputation, and got my way on to tv. I think back and just 1 move could have stopped me from ever getting anywhere, but then another could get me a Bafta (bloody bafta's). Anyway, any more q's e-mail me.

Simon

P.S i'm flattered by the simpsons comment, but i'm not so sure myself, there's a lot more content in the simpsons, pleased you like the movie references.
