The Irish comedian will be doing just that when he brings his latest show Off The Hook to Launceston's Princess Theatre on Saturday.

"Human experiences are the same wherever you go, but Australians in particular are a bunch of people with a very identifiable outlook a lot of the time," Moran told X-static.

"They are very interested in the wider world around them, probably more so than other people and they are more interested in their own part in the big global picture, because they are a little bit apart from the rest of the world.

"They have that outdoor culture, and then there is Europe, where everybody is very direct, there is a very high premium on taking things seriously, and one of the things I really do like about Australia is that there is a high value on conversation."

Moran said Australia reminded him of his home country of Ireland, which makes the experience all the more enjoyable.

"I'm very fond of Tasmania, as I've had a really good time of it down there, and I like Melbourne and Byron Bay, and it (Australia) really is an amazing place."

This Off The Hook tour, which will take him all over the world, is the first one to have taken him so far and wide.

Most well known for his portrayal of Bernard Black in the cult hit Black Books, a show he also co-wrote, Moran said it was time he looked back on fondly over its three seasons

"I don't just look back on the character, I think about the show," Moran said.

"We were very lucky as we had a great ensemble of people working on the show.

"We had a great time and we tried to make people laugh as much as possible.

"When we had it good, we tried to make it better and then I pulled the plug on the thing as I didn't want it to go too long, as many television programs can.

"Some television shows that are good just keep on going because they have desperate producers at the back, and then they kill it."
