He can be (on stage/set that is..), depending on his mental and emotional predispositions, somewhere between John Lydon and Frankie Howard french style, sounding like Peter Sellers sometimes. Has a character called Marquis de l'Arde... very French but also somehow a TRUE Londoner. He has routine of twenty minutes or so of his own peculiar philosophy on women, men, life and love... (jacques lacan, frederic nietzsche, serge gainsbourg, bernard shaw, oscar wilde, quentin crisp, to name a few).

"Imperious, choleric, irascible, extreme in everything, with a dissolute imagination the like of which has never been seen, atheistic to the point of fanaticism, there you have me in a nutshell.... Kill me again or take me as I am, for I shall not change." - Marquis de Sade, Last Will and Testament. Circa 1813.
"The great ambition of women is to inspire love" - Moliere (yeah right! - JC 2007..)
James Whistler alluded to Oscar Wilde’s penchant for borrowing from authors when, to Wilde’s comment, “I wish I’d said that, James”, he replied “Don’t worry, Oscar, you will”...
"What the public criticizes in you, cultivate it; it is you." - Jean Cocteau
"Even in literature and art, no man who bothers about originality will ever be original: whereas if you simply try to tell the truth (without caring twopence how often it has been told before) you will, nine times out of ten, become original without ever having noticed it."
– C.S. Lewis
I've still got the greatest enthusiasm and confidence in the mission - HAL
