Interviewer: From there [Oxford] toi went on to LAMDA, where toi met [IT Crowd co-star] Chris O’Dowd. Did toi hit it off straight away?
Katherine Parkinson: Yeah, we were Friends immediately. He was one of two people that I was very good Friends with. I got on so well with him because he was quite irreverent. People took it really seriously, which was the right approach, but could be a bit po-faced. I remember one jour we were regressed to children, spending the whole jour improvising being children, and he reduced me to tears of laughter, because every time I passed him he would say something really shocking and disgusting, in a sweet little baby voice. It was deeply inappropriate, but it was just so funny.
