00:00Good to see you.

00:01You too, man.

00:02First and foremost, you must be good for your brother that Chaos got canned off

00:06because that show was brilliant.

00:07Dude, it's heartbreaking, isn't it?

00:08I think it's like a really frustrating, when something that's got that much quality

00:11and such an amazing cast in it.

00:13And everyone I know who watched it loved it.

00:15Yeah, yeah.

00:16But you know, man, it's a dark heart, isn't it?

00:18TV commissioning or whatever, isn't it?

00:20It is.

00:21It's something that you and your brother both kind of dived into fairly recently

00:24over the last few years, working your way through the TV world.

00:29And it's been doing all right.

00:30I see you at these awards ceremonies.

00:32This must just be like a normal Sunday for you by now, surely?

00:37Yeah, do you know what?

00:38It's funny with the awards because obviously you just do it for the work, isn't it?

00:41And the art.

00:42Yeah.

00:43But I'm not complaining when you get free food and a free hotel room.

00:45Do you know what I mean?

00:46It's a lovely little perk.

00:47You get to see your mates, all the people you've worked with that you love,

00:52some of the ones you hate.

00:54And which of those ones that you hate, if you just want to share?

00:57So do you want full names or just first names?

00:59Full names, addresses.

01:00Have you got producer?

01:01No, imagine.

01:02Imagine.

01:03The first is my third BAFTA.

01:04Yeah.

01:05The first year I found it really overwhelming, man.

01:07But now I'm like, I can just sit back and enjoy and taking all the silliness and also the specialness.

01:14Do you feel a little bit of pressure?

01:15Well, obviously you're going to feel pressure, but being here last year with all the love that

01:19Juice was getting, you've got your business head on.

01:21You've got your like, right, I've got to kind of milk this.

01:23I've got to talk to the right people.

01:25What if I win something?

01:26Does it feel kind of different when you come and you can kind of just like chill out and

01:29have a good time?

01:30Yeah.

01:31I love it.

01:32The pressure's off me.

01:33The pressure's all on my brother.

01:34I'd much rather it be that way.

01:35Do you know what I mean?

01:36Yeah.

01:37Do you know what I mean?

01:38Because it is when you go, when you're nominated, it's a whole thing to go through, man.

01:41You don't want to care.

01:42You're like, I'm doing it for the awards.

01:44I'm just here to join.

01:45But you're sat there in your nice clothes.

01:47You haven't eaten for five hours.

01:48Yeah.

01:49And you start caring.

01:50And you're like, do you know what?

01:51Actually, I'm really dehydrated.

01:53And what would help is if I won.

01:55Have you seen the studio yet on Apple TV?

01:58Yeah, I love the studio.

01:59Did you see the one when they're at the Golden Globes?

02:01Yeah.

02:02Oh, I don't care.

02:03But I do care.

02:04I'm going to win this.

02:05I'm not going to win this.

02:06We're all actors, right?

02:07Yeah.

02:08We're all about, oh, I don't really care.

02:09I don't really care.

02:10Producers are like, I care.

02:11Like, this is more important than my firstborn.

02:13Yeah.

02:14And that is the dynamic.

02:15And it's funny because I think that on some level, everyone cares because as much as people

02:19will say they don't, we love a clap.

02:22We're performers.

02:23We love to be clapped.

02:24How's your brother coping?

02:25But it isn't the main focus.

02:26Do you know what I mean?

02:27Yeah, of course.

02:28How's your brother coping with it at the moment with the love?

02:29He looks like he's having a good time.

02:30Yeah.

02:31He's brought a cane with him.

02:32So he's walking around like Willy Wonka and I'm like, bro, lean in, man.

02:35Yeah.

02:36So he looks like he's having a good time.

02:38I think he's like steady Eddie, you know?

02:41He doesn't get too wrapped up in this stuff.

02:43I think we just try and find the enjoyment in it and don't overthink it really.

02:47And finally, we're getting more juice or what?

02:49Yeah, man.

02:50Juice Series 2.

02:51Coming this year.

02:52It's coming.

02:53Hopefully autumn, winter.

02:54We just finished filming it.

02:55It's so magical.

02:56We've got a special guest role by Kevin Eldon.

03:00Nice.

03:01Mark Gatiss comes and does a camera.

03:02I love those guys.

03:03Some of the heroes are in it.

03:04That's the brilliant thing.

03:05You do Series 1 and the people you've watched growing up that you love now know it and the

03:10ones who are a fan of it do this intergenerational sort of giving you their blessing.

03:15Yeah.

03:16It's just more magical and more bigger and better than ever.

03:18Mate, Kevin Eldon had such an underrated show of his own that came out.

03:21After Big Train and all that kind of stuff, he had his own like the Kevin Eldon show.

03:24Kevin, yeah.

03:25He was really, really good.

03:26Yeah.

03:27Anyway, man.

03:28Looking forward to the series.

03:29He's one of my ultimate.

03:30And, well, I'm sure we might be seeing you this time next year.

03:32Who knows, man.

03:33You'll be back in the driving seat.

03:34You'll be on with a cane.

03:35I managed your expectations though, but sure, maybe.

03:36Good to speak to you, man.

03:37All right, man.

03:38Good luck.

03:39See you later.

03:40Have a good day.

03:41Take care.
