Alex Merchant Anecdotes
"People say it's stinginess, Gervais would say it's stinginess. I don't agree. I'm my father's son, he's a man who's cautious with money. I remember my sister said to him once 'Why do I only get 20p by the tooth fairy, whereas all my friends got a quid?' and he said something like 'Because all the other tooth fairies have wives that work.'" (24 March 07, Steve Merchant on the Jonathan Ross BBC Radio 2 Show)
At the Christmas dinner table the year before, Alex who is religious and Stephen who is an atheist were arguing about Jesus, and Mrs. Merchant said "Will you two stop arguing about Jesus? It's not the time!" (24 December 2005, RG and SM standing in on the Jonathan Ross Radio 2 show).
Alex told Stephen about the man she worked with in a factory who had a tattoo of a naked female vampire taking a shower. (30 November 2002)
