Audience: [laughs]

Pegg: We er, we shared a house for a while, and I had to move in with him cos I got thrown out of my apartment, and I slept on the floor of his bedroom, and he said "come on, we'll sleep end to end cos it's more comfortable" so we slept end to end. Then we ended up sleeping just next to eachother. Within six weeks it was spooning.
Audience: [laughs]
Pegg: And I... [laughing continues] some mornings I didn't know where I began and he ended if you know what I mean. no ;-P I recommend it to all straight guys, just to get in bed with your best friend and realise that it's ok to cuddle. :)
