Hi Irvine,

A few years back during work experience at your publishers, one of my tasks was to filter your fan mail and only allow ‘normal’ stuff to be sent onto you. Some of the letters were quite…alarming. What’s been your oddest encounter with a fan?

Out of all the filth (awful pun, sorry) in your work, the scene that has bothered me the most is undoubtedly the sex scene between Nicki and Sick Boy – the line ‘Then I’m kissing, licking at his eyes, his nose; tasting the salt track from nostril to top lip’ in particular. For the love of god why? His EYES? The whole scene is a parody, right? Either way, the Bad Sex Award should’ve been yours.

What would you rather: have fingers as long as your legs or legs as long as your fingers?

Also I know you're busy with books and babies right now but any plans for documentaries in the future? Loved your shows on Mail Order Brides and Free Love communities!
