Quote 394 of 495

... they started pouring normal glasses. And I said. "What are you doing?
I am not a little girl! Fill it up! I drink vodka!" They started
filling them to the top. "More, more, more!" And I think I downed
about 21 or 22 glasses of wine in an hour to try and convince them.
And I'm not a big drinker at the best of times. I'm almost a teetotaler.

I went to the toilet, totally passed out, and they all came in. My
director was really scared that I'd wake up and go, "Allo! What's
going on here? Allo," that I'd come up as Sacha Baron Cohen and just
say hello. But luckily I opened me eyes, went, "I want more wine!" I
woke up in character!
