Nigel George Planer (born 22 February 1953 in Westminster, London) is an English actor, comedian, novelist and playwright. Planer is perhaps best known for his role as Neil Pye in the cult BBC comedy The Young Ones. He has appeared in many West End musicals, including Evita, Chicago, We Will Rock You, Wicked and Hairspray. He is long time comedy partners with Peter Richardson. He also narrates the children's TV show, Grizzly Tales for Gruesome Kids.
So far my favourite quote is: "Just the idea of something growing inside you is going to create, in some women, a degree of emotional instability, anxiety, irritability and depression. I know it would me." Sometimes it's easy to forget what's going on in my girlfriend's head while she's pregnant and why she gets so irritational. So just this one paragraph explains a lot.
