Transcript

00:00They're playing a game. He says something and we say whether he says it overratedly or underratedly.

00:06Correct. So I say under.

00:08No, you can't wait for him to say something.

00:11We did, he said no.

00:13No, not enough. Let him drop a word.

00:16Okay, here we go.

00:23Under.

00:24Underrated.

00:25Under. Way under.

00:26Yeah. Some people don't even know that they existed at all.

00:30And still do.

00:31Well, yes.

00:32I mean, not in great numbers, but they still do.

00:34No, they exist like Wiccans still exist.

00:36But under, under, under.

00:38Under, under, yes.

00:39And probably vegan.

00:43To me, it's a tragedy. I'm driving on the motorway.

00:47He wants to know over and under.

00:49No, we'll get there. He's going.

00:51Driving.

00:52My car sputters.

00:54Pull over.

00:55I call Autotune.

00:57They can't.

00:58No.

00:59See, that's your first mistake.

01:00Yeah.

01:01Call Autoclub.

01:02Don't call them Autotune.

01:04Fuck.

01:05Yeah.

01:06Okay, no. Good point.

01:07I think that.

01:08Oh, you're talking about the thing in the studio.

01:10Yeah.

01:11Yeah.

01:12It's shite.

01:13Yeah.

01:14It's rubbish.

01:15It's absolute rubbish.

01:16You know what, you know what Autotune really is?

01:18Electronic yodeling.

01:19Who needs that?

01:20Yeah.

01:21Real yodeling is okay.

01:22Yeah, it's all right.

01:23I mean, it's all right.

01:24Country music, Swiss, Swiss...

01:26Family Robinson.

01:30Overrated.

01:31Not real.

01:32Oh, no, no.

01:33Real ghosts are underrated.

01:35Oh.

01:36Yeah.

01:37Way underrated.

01:38Because they can do more things than you would think.

01:41They can do...

01:42They can't do anything.

01:43...maths.

01:44They can do...

01:45They can't do anything.

01:46They can't drive.

01:47They can run fast.

01:48They can't drive.

01:49You think of a ghost as being sort of pillow.

01:51Pillowy white thing with little eyes.

01:53Oh.

01:54How old are you, Nig?

01:56God, it still believes in pillowy ghosts.

01:58How do those ghosts sound again?

02:00Oh, yeah.

02:01We're bouncing along.

02:02But ghosts can do anything they want to do.

02:05That's why I love them.

02:07Not the limbo.

02:08For me, you can't have enough different kinds.

02:15You can't...

02:16So that's not fair.

02:17You can ask normal people.

02:19Cheese has hold, so it's overrated.

02:21Sometimes.

02:22So it's overrated.

02:23Sometimes.

02:24No opinion.

02:25Oh, I love The Great British...

02:30I don't know whether it's underrated or overrated.

02:33I love it.

02:34It's mouth-watering.

02:36And there's a bloke named Paul Hollywood in it,

02:39who's got these piercing blue eyes.

02:41I don't want to go into it.

02:42But I love that show.

02:43It's overcooked.

02:47What's the H stand for?

02:48Hemorrhoid.

02:49Ah.

02:50Under.

02:51Underrated, yeah.

02:52Yeah.

02:53Because that's where you put it.

02:55I find it disturbing because it's salty.

03:00No, you're not supposed to.

03:01You're not supposed to eat it.

03:02No, no, no.

03:03And that might be the crackers that make it salty anyway.

03:08I would say you've got to rate them one by one.

03:11Individually.

03:12Yeah, exactly.

03:13It's an individual thing.

03:14And, truthfully, at our age, it's a different situation

03:17because they come from care homes.

03:20They've got walkers.

03:21They're old people like us, you know,

03:26and it's a different scale of measuring.

03:30I think in Hollywood they'd be rated R.

03:33The only one I remember vividly,

03:37and she followed us everywhere for maybe 30 years,

03:41Maureen the Machine.

03:43Maureen the Machine.

03:44She was the model for...

03:46The glove?

03:47The glove.

03:48Smell the glove, wasn't she?

03:49Yeah.

03:50She might have been, yeah.

03:51Yeah, yeah.

03:54Again, case by case.

03:56What's OnlyFans?

03:57Well, you could do an OnlyFans if you wanted to.

03:59What?

04:00It's on the internet.

04:01Yeah.

04:02And people pay, people pay to have a little window into your life

04:06or into your groin.

04:08And it's...

04:09Then what?

04:10Well, listen, you're going to have to look it up on YouTube.

04:12He's so naive.

04:13I don't know what he is.

04:14I'd say overpriced.

04:18Which royal family?

04:19The British royal family.

04:20Because there are lots of royal family.

04:22Overrated.

04:23Overall, I think they're over.

04:25Overrated.

04:26Overrated.

04:27Listen, they still talk about the divine right of kings.

04:30Yeah.

04:31Now that's overrating.

04:32Big time.

04:33That's a textbook case.

04:34Big time.

04:35Yeah, it really is.

04:36There are people, maybe a hundred people, called minor royals.

04:39Yeah.

04:40Yeah.

04:41Those are the best ones.

04:42They are.

04:43And they're underrated.

04:47Look, he was...

04:48He's dead, first of all.

04:49So it's...

04:50Still uncomfortable to...

04:51You know, but I met him once and he was...

04:54I liked him.

04:55He was nice.

04:56It's funny.

04:57Sorry to see him go.

04:58Yeah.

04:59If you have this AI thing.

05:00Yeah.

05:01If you...

05:02If you said, let's see Ozzy and Princess die in heaven, holding hands.

05:07Well, he'd love that.

05:08Yeah, he'd love it.

05:09Yeah.

05:10Well, somebody try it.

05:11Or do it with A1.

05:12Because you see A1 in heaven.

05:14What?

05:15The source.

05:16No.

05:17This is different.

05:22Matcha...

05:23Matcha latte is what he said.

05:24It's a tea that's also coffee.

05:25Yeah.

05:26And it's got something vegan in it.

05:28Over...

05:29And I say it's rubbish.

05:30Overrated.

05:31Overrated.

05:32Just by your description, it's overrated.

05:33Yeah.

05:37Under.

05:38Under.

05:39Under.

05:40Under.

05:41Underrated.

05:42Under.

05:43Under.

05:44Underrated.

05:45Under.

05:46Underrated.

05:47Yeah, easy.

05:48That's an easy one.

05:49Yeah.

05:50Underrated as our future.

05:52Overrated as our past.

05:54What's that mean?

05:55Ooh.

05:56Not sure, but it felt right.

05:57Cute.

05:58Cute.

05:59Cute.

06:00Look at you being the...

06:01Yeah.

06:02Yeah.

06:03I was gonna say it's deep.

06:04It's not actually deep.

06:05No, no.

06:06It's shallow.

06:07So shallow it doesn't splash.

06:09I think it's funny.

06:10Yeah.

06:11I think it's definitely funny.

06:12So I'd say it's underrated as a gag, you know, for seeing that.

06:16Well, it's also from South America.

06:18So that would be under.

06:20Well, that's hence the lift.

06:21Hence the lift.

06:22But if you're under, you get lifted and you're over.

06:24That's right.

06:25Walking on the street.

06:26You know, someone walking on the street and they go, oh, you go, yeah, good one.

06:30Funny.

06:31Yeah.

06:32That's what I say.

06:35Over.

06:36Under.

06:37Skinny jeans depends on your age.

06:38It depends on the BBL or whatever you call that thing.

06:42Because if you have a butt lift and you've got a real chunky bum, then skinny jeans look

06:50stupid.

06:51You see this little ankle and it goes up to this, whatever you want to call it.

06:56Blossom.

06:57Yeah.

06:58People are walking around looking like shrooms.

07:00I think that designer, I can't remember the name, that did two different bottoms to jeans.

07:06I think Lloyd Wright.

07:07No, that's a different person.

07:08Yeah.

07:09Someone designed one leg skinny, the other one bell-bottom.

07:12Yeah.

07:13I thought that was a good idea.

07:14No, I didn't think it worked.

07:16Threw everything off.

07:17Do you ever use it?

07:18I use it occasionally, yeah.

07:19I would say it's under, underrated.

07:20Oh.

07:21I always get them stuck in my sleeve and it's, oh God, I can't do anything.

07:24Yeah.

07:25IMDB is very handy.

07:26I think it's great.

07:27You could really find out who did what, when and what can we do about it.

07:30But sometimes they have things that aren't true in it.

07:31No.

07:32Oh yeah.

07:33Yeah.

07:34I was looking something up and it's mentioned a name, which I can't mention now because I'll

07:37be sued.

07:38But that person was not in the movie that I was looking at.

07:39Who's going to sue you?

07:40See, I'm ****.

07:41Yeah.

07:42You might sue us.

07:43No, I'm going to sue.

07:44You're not talking about **** now, are you?

07:45No.

07:46That's my little trick.

07:47Yeah.

07:48I would say, over.

07:49No.

07:50No.

07:51No.

07:52No.

07:53No.

07:54No.

07:55No.

07:56No.

07:57No.

07:58No.

07:59No.

08:00No.

08:01No.

08:02No.

08:03No.

08:04No.

08:05No.

08:06No.

08:07No.

08:08No.

08:09No.

08:10No.

08:11No.

08:12No.

08:13No.

08:14No.

08:15No.

08:16No.

08:17No.

08:18No.

08:19No.

08:20No.

08:21No.

08:22No.

08:23No.

08:24No.

08:25No.

08:26No.

08:27No.

08:28No.

08:29No.

08:30No.

08:31No.

08:32No.

08:33No.

08:34No.

08:35No.

08:36No.

08:37I think it's underrated as a reminder to click one over to go to Radio 4.

08:44Ah, underrated.

08:46Underrated, yeah.

08:47Keeps the world together.

08:48It's not appreciated enough.

08:51Not nearly enough.

08:56They are rated.

08:58Rated.

08:58They are correctly rated.

09:00They're right in the middle.

09:01You'd have to be really stupid to say under.

09:04Yeah.

09:05Because everybody thinks they're great.

09:06And you'd have to be stupid to say over.

09:08Yeah.

09:08So we're going to play the non-stupid card.

09:11That's right.

09:11Yeah.

09:15Overdone.

09:16I think it's underrated by the Beatles.

09:19No, we're not talking about the Beatles.

09:20The Beatles are not in the question anymore.

09:21Okay.

09:22Well, no.

09:23Listen, I would say, listen, about different types of music, etc.

09:27It's what you like.

09:29There's nothing wrong with what you like.

09:30And it's what you don't like as well.

09:31And there's nothing wrong with what you don't like.

09:32No.

09:32It's like different years.

09:34The whole idea is according to who.

09:37Or who.

09:37You're just afraid of getting beaten.

09:38Or the who.

09:39No, no.

09:40We have one under.

09:42Yeah.

09:42One over.

09:43I abstain.

09:44One over.
