David Walliams

On 4th July 2006, starting from a beach near Dover, successfully swam the 21 miles across the English Channel in 10 hours 30 minutes. He did this to help raise money for Sport Relief.

On his role in Virgin Territory (2007) (in which he makes a cameo at the beginning): I have done a few cameos in movies and quite enjoyed it - other than this one. I did this part because I liked Hayden Christensen. I do this scene in the start of the film. I'm playing the cart pusher. All I was thinking as I was doing that was: 'What am I doing?' It was terrible, that's the way my mind works. It's terrible.
