Adam Kay: I can have all sorts of medical mishaps... in fiction

Talking bodily fluids, hospitals, caesarean sections and comedy with the This Is Going to Hurt author who has a new children's book out now

Adam Kay: "There is no one, I don’t think, who goes into medicine for cash."

Adam Kay must be one of the most famous ex-doctors in the world, but he knows a few others in the club. The 44-year-old allows himself a big laugh when I ask whether he’s ever sat down to compare notes — medical or comedy — with Harry Hill.

“I do know Harry, or Matthew [Hall] as he’s also known, and he is a very funny, clever man,” Kay says.
