To be honest, after all the crap that happened with 'Summer Heights High,' I was like, 'I'm not going to write anything controversial or edgy ever again; I just can't handle the blame.'

I don't just want to upset people and shock people by saying something really outrageous.

I went to a private boys' school, and we had girls in the last two years.

Religious humor is not really my area, so I probably wouldn't do anything about that, or politics or something.

I became a player who goes to a lot of effort while training, who can rely on his will and his mental strengths.
