Balanced?

How healthy is Green Wing's Stephen Mangan?
  
  


Do you take any vitamins or supplements? Cod liver oil is my tipple at the moment. Sometimes I take that Omega 369 stuff, which is supposed to be good for your brain.

Do you prefer healthy food or fast food? Healthy food - although there are times when fast food is the only way. When you're hungover, it's all you want; it makes you feel better for 10 minutes, then you feel worse.

Do you take any exercise? I enter myself in races. I did a triathlon and I have done a marathon a couple of times. I cycle around town, I swim twice a week and run twice a week.

How do you chill out? I watch films. I play the guitar: me and some mates - I wouldn't dignify it with the term band - get together and play.

What foods do you always have in your trolley? Strawberries, mangoes, oatcakes, wine and pork of various descriptions - I love ham.

What have you eaten so far today? Strawberries, blueberries, yogurt, muesli and coffee. Absurdly healthy.

Do you drink? A fair amount. I like Guinness, wine and whisky - all in one big glass with an umbrella.

Are you vain? I don't like to watch myself on screen because in my mind there is a touch of George Clooney about me, but when I see it there is more than a little Donkey from Shrek about me.

Stephen Mangan stars in Green Wing, 9pm on Fridays on Channel 4. Interview by Stevie Brown.
