Quote by Steve Coogan
If you start to disrespect the character youre playing, or play it

If you start to disrespect the character youre playing, or play it too much for laughs, that can work for a sketch, it will sell some gags, but its all technique. Its like watching a juggler – you can be impressed by it, but its not going to touch you in any way. – Steve Coogan
