Why he might be annoying:

    He invented a look (a bewildered gaze across a room) and admitted that once he came up with it, he could not stop doing it.
    He curses profusely in interviews.
    He doesn't like having his photo taken (he says that he doesn't know what face to pull).
    He doesn't like being recognized in public.
    He has a long list of people he hates, including Geri Halliwell, Dom Joly, Ben Elton and Charlie Dimmock.

Why he might not be annoying:

    He kindly considers Ricky Gervais a genius and Richard Curtis 'the coolest person in the world.'
    He dislikes the concept of the modern celebrity, saying in an interview 'I am violently disgusted by our defecation of fame and celebrity. I don't see it as an achievement and I don't think it's big or clever.'
    He has a great grasp of comedic acting and it often seems as though he's been typecast in his roles.
    He is a big Laurel and Hardy fan.
    He has extensive knowledge of soul and jazz from the 60's and 70's.
    He is extremely modest.
