02:48I'm really well.
02:49Have a seat, dude.
02:50Hello, hello, hello, hello, hello.
02:52Very nice.
02:53We have met, I know, but we have met, I know that.
02:55Oh, yeah, perfect.
02:56Have a seat, dude.
02:59Lovely to see you all.
03:00Hello, hello.
03:01Last time I was here was Covid.
03:02You weren't that close.
03:04Yeah.
03:05Now they're breathing all over you.
03:07You can feel their breath.
03:09Lovely.
03:10And a first-time welcome to Jessie and Kieran.
03:12Thank you very much.
03:13I've actually been on your show before.
03:14I've actually been on your show before.
03:16I've actually been on your show before.
03:17Nice memory.
03:18Good.
03:19I'm glad that you couldn't see me.
03:20No, you haven't.
03:21We did the radio together.
03:22No, we did that.
03:23That was a couple of years ago, but around 2002, 2003.
03:25As a matter of fact, I think we have pictures of it.
03:27Really?
03:28Really?
03:29I think so.
03:30Oh, my God!
03:31No, no, no.
03:32One of you don't remember.
03:33That was me?
03:34Jesus.
03:35Put that...
03:36Get that away.
03:37From you.
03:38There we go.
03:39Oh, my God.
03:40What are you doing?
03:41Was this...
03:42Was this 50 years ago?
03:43Yes.
03:4445, 50.
03:45Yeah.
03:46One of us has aged slightly worse than the other, I would say.
03:50Now, if Nicola looks a little windswept, it's because you rushed here from...
03:55Was it the side of Bridgerton?
03:56Yes.
03:57Yeah, yeah, yeah.
03:58So...
03:59So, literally the plan was, I was like, I was picked up at like 4 in the morning and then
04:05I got in and I was like, I've got to get the wig off.
04:07I've got to get on the bike.
04:08I'd never been in a motorbike before.
04:09And I felt really excited until I got on it.
04:11And then I wanted to die.
04:12It was so funny.
04:13Oh, we've got a picture of you on the bike.
04:15Oh, there she is!
04:17Oh, ho, ho, ho!
04:19Look!
04:20Is that right?
04:21You're that wrong?
04:22Yeah.
04:23That's what I was...
04:24That's what I was...
04:25That's what I was getting on.
04:26If you zoom in, you can really see the fear in my eyes.
04:29Um...
04:30And look, I know you think you're cool because you're James Bond, but I think we all know
04:35it was the coolest looking person on his couch.
04:37Yeah!
04:38But it's...
04:39Yeah, it was an experience.
04:40What were you doing with the microphone?
04:41What were you talking about there?
04:42We were having chats.
04:43Okay.
04:44Me and my driver, he's from Glasgow.
04:45We were talking about drinking Guinness and...
04:47Oh, really?
04:48We had a lovely time, but I wasn't thinking about dying.
04:49That's not distracting as he's driving you?
04:51Yeah.
04:52Well, he did make a joke.
04:53I was like, I've never done this before.
04:54Ha-ha-ha-ha!
04:55Yeah, he was great.
04:56It's a good joke.
04:57I'm alive!
04:58So...
04:59And two huge television shows represented on the show tonight, Bridgerton and Succession.
05:07Daniel, which of those do you prefer?
05:09You haven't seen either, have you?
05:12You know he hasn't.
05:13Nailed it.
05:14Do you watch any telly?
05:15No.
05:16Oh, Daniel!
05:17Not even married at first sight.
05:18It's really good.
05:19Is it?
05:20Jessie, you seem also psyched.
05:21Do you watch any television?
05:22No.
05:23No.
05:24No.
05:25You don't have a TV.
05:26No.
05:27Oh, that's a real hindrance.
05:28My wife grew up without a TV.
05:29On my wife's 12th birthday, her mom, as a gift her, rented a TV for two hours to watch the Babysitter's Club.
05:35Oh!
05:36So, I married into, like, a Luddite family, and so I never had a TV.
05:40He told me he watches movies on his phone on his knee.
05:43Yeah.
05:44And this is a filmmaker, by the way.
05:45Yeah.
05:46He likes to watch movies.
05:47That's a great knee.
05:48Yeah.
05:49Presumably it would drive you mad if someone was watching your movie on a phone on your knee.
05:52Oh, I don't care.
05:53I really, you know, don't.
05:54I think about it all the time.
05:55I'm like, you know, people are saying, like, I want this movie to play this movie.
05:58I don't care.
05:59I don't care.
06:00I really don't.
06:01I think about it all the time.
06:02I'm like, you know, people are saying, like, I want this movie to play this movie.
06:04I always just think, like, I'm so happy to be here on the set.
06:07This is the coolest thing in the world.
06:08I don't care what happens afterwards.
06:09But I thought you were the same way.
06:11I mean, but I like to watch a movie in the theatre.
06:13Oh, yeah.
06:14Not on a phone.
06:15I've never watched a movie on the phone.
06:16That sucks.
06:17Do you care how people would be watching you?
06:18No, I don't really care if anybody watches the thing, I guess.
06:20Right?
06:21I did it already.
06:22I did the thing.
06:23I'm done.
06:24Thank you for letting me do it.
06:25Yeah.
06:26No, great job selling the film.
06:27And...
06:28Yeah.
06:29It really...
06:30You've really nailed it.
06:31I think...
06:32Yeah, you haven't been on for 20 years.
06:35Yes.
06:36Exactly.
06:37I thought the haircut would have helped, but, yeah.
06:39All right.
06:40And, guys, I should...
06:41A little word of warning before you get going.
06:43Oh.
06:44When you say things in interviews,
06:45sometimes things can be taken out of context,
06:48they can even go viral.
06:49Are you looking at me?
06:50No.
06:51You are?
06:52No, I'm actually looking at Nicola,
06:53because what...
06:54You were doing press.
06:55Was it for Bridget and you were doing press?
06:56Yes.
06:57And what have they actually asked you?
06:58Well, they asked me, they said,
06:59if you weren't an actor, like, what would you do?
07:01And sometimes I say maybe a Montessori teacher,
07:03but when you've done a junket,
07:04and it's the same question a million times,
07:05I was like,
07:06you know when real housewives only make music for gay men?
07:09You may actually...
07:10I'm looking at you as if you'll know.
07:11I was like, Jesse...
07:12You wrote me into your problem.
07:14Jesse's like,
07:15Actual housewives?
07:16Yeah, yeah, yeah.
07:18Yeah, so they sometimes just make songs
07:19that are just listing things.
07:21It's like Private Jets, Louboutins.
07:23And I just said this in an interview,
07:25but then this DJ in America, Alice Mia,
07:27made it into a song.
07:28And he really did.
07:29This is it.
07:30Don't even explain it.
07:31This is it.
07:32Here we have it.
07:33Here we go.
07:34Sometimes you know when the real housewives release
07:35pop songs just exclusively for gay men?
07:37That's like my dream job.
07:38Because they don't even really sing,
07:39they just list things and like...
07:40Shoes.
07:41Caviar.
07:42Caviar.
07:43More shoes.
07:44Shoes.
07:45Caviar.
07:46Caviar.
07:47More shoes.
07:48Shoes.
07:49Caviar.
07:50Caviar.
07:51More shoes.
07:52Shoes.
07:53Caviar.
07:54Caviar.
07:55Oh, we're all so jealous.
07:57That's right.
07:58Very good.
07:59Right, let's get on.
08:00We start with Daniel Craig giving a Golden Globe-nominated performance.
08:05This extraordinary new film.
08:07It's called Queer.
08:08It's out in cinemas today.
08:11And it strikes me, this film, it's sort of queer in every sense of the word.
08:15It's based on a William S Burroughs novel.
08:18What do you want to tell us about it?
08:20Ha-ha.
08:21Um...
08:22It's based on a William S Burroughs novel.
08:24I said that.
08:25I know you did.
08:26Don't cheat.
08:27I gave you that one.
08:30LAUGHTER
08:31He wrote it.
08:32Do I have to?
08:33You're in it.
08:34You're in it.
08:35I'm in it.
08:36You're very good.
08:38It's written in the 1950s.
08:40It wasn't published until 1982, I don't think.
08:43It's about him and his relationship with a guy in Mexico City in the 50s.
08:48And the book is not autobiographical.
08:51It's a story.
08:52It's a novella.
08:53And Luca Guadagnino directed it and it's quite good.
08:58No, it's so good.
08:59How are we doing, Carlos?
09:00No, no, you're doing very good.
09:02LAUGHTER
09:03APPLAUSE
09:05Thank you, guys.
09:06You're so generous.
09:07A director.
09:08A director.
09:09LAUGHTER
09:10Now, listen, to give people just an idea of the film,
09:13here's a little bit from the trailer.
09:15What's you got to lose?
09:22Independence.
09:27I want to talk to you.
09:33Without speaking.
09:34What are you so afraid of?
09:47The door's already open.
09:48Can't close it now.
09:53All he can do is look away.
09:57But why would you?
09:59Oh.
10:00CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
10:03It really is terrific.
10:05And we heard the voice of Sinead O'Connor,
10:08the late Sinead O'Connor there.
10:10So she recorded that the day Kurt Cobain died.
10:13At home.
10:14And it's sort of...
10:16I mean, and then they did bits of it later.
10:18And the Sinead O'Connor estate gave us permission
10:20to take the guitar truck out.
10:22So she's still...
10:23At the beginning of the movie, she sings it a cappella.
10:25And it's, um...
10:26I mean, it's just...
10:27Yeah, no, it really kind of sets the tone.
10:29Yeah, yeah.
10:30And obviously, it's you.
10:31Drew Starkey plays your lover.
10:33And we go into the movie and we have kind of preconceived notions
10:36of what masculinity is and what's gay, what's straight.
10:39But William Burr's...
10:40He really blurred all of those lines.
10:42Yeah, I think probably because homosexuality was illegal
10:46in the United States at the time.
10:48So I think you had to have...
10:50You know, you had to have a kind of male front.
10:53I mean, you had to...
10:54You couldn't give it away.
10:55I mean, there was no sort of freedom of expression in that sense.
10:57And he was a junkie and it was illegal as well,
10:59so one of the reasons he went to.
11:01But I just...
11:02I suppose I'm fascinated by that, the artifice of masculinity.
11:06I think it is.
11:07It's all...
11:08I mean, some of it's beautiful, don't get me wrong.
11:09It's all kind of like...
11:10But he was kind of proper gun-toting.
11:11Oh, he loved his guns, yes.
11:12Yeah.
11:13Yeah.
11:14Which you don't expect.
11:15No, I suppose not.
11:16I mean, he really was a kind of...
11:18I mean, in that sense, a bit of a good old boy.
11:20He was like, he kind of loved the kind of country life
11:22and blowing things up and shooting things.
11:24And I'm not suggesting you did this because, you know,
11:27you've stopped playing Bond,
11:28but there must be a lovely relief in your life where you feel free,
11:31you can do a movie like this.
11:33Yeah, I just...
11:34I don't think I could have done this during Bond.
11:35I mean, not because I wouldn't have wanted to,
11:37but just because it would have felt kind of really self-consciously
11:40and, like, you know,
11:42oh, isn't he a good actor?
11:44You know, it's like...
11:45Look at him pretending.
11:47Yeah, yeah.
11:52Exactly.
11:53So, yeah, I just felt...
11:55And timing is everything.
11:56I mean, Luca didn't get the rights until last year
12:00or the year before,
12:02and he came to see me, like, three months later
12:04and we said, yes, let's do it.
12:05Oh, fantastic.
12:06Yeah.
12:07Because, Nicola Coughlin,
12:08I've heard you talking about that last season of Bridgerton.
12:10Yeah.
12:11Where you felt it was so kind of liberating
12:12and kind of empowering
12:13that you were the romantic lead of the whole thing.
12:15Yeah, it was mental.
12:16I realised I was, I guess, 35 when I was filming the season
12:20and I'd never played an adult.
12:22I was like...
12:23Why did I say what I said?
12:24I was like, how do I do this?
12:25Because I don't know if you've seen the first two series,
12:28I looked a lot like SpongeBob SquarePants.
12:30Like, very, very curly, ginger, yellow dresses,
12:33sort of a tent situation going on.
12:35It's a great show.
12:36You should watch it.
12:37You'll love it.
12:38Yeah, but it was weird having to then play the romantic lead
12:45and then knowing it was all...
12:47Because it's a sexy show.
12:48Yeah.
12:49A lot of sexy things happen in it.
12:50And then I realised I was going to have to do the sexy things.
12:52And I was like, right.
12:53And what was really funny is the other night watching Queer,
12:56there is a scene in it which I will talk around
12:58because I can't say it was happening.
12:59It's an intimate scene and there's an action happening in the scene
13:03that I joked, we couldn't do that in Bridgerton
13:05because you can't make that beautiful,
13:06but Queer made it really beautiful.
13:08Mm-hm.
13:09And it's just...
13:10It's...
13:11It's like...
13:12I feel you've talked around it too much, Nicola.
13:15OK.
13:17We can...
13:18We can stop it there.
13:19But it was beautiful.
13:20It was really beautiful, yeah.
13:21Jesse watched it on a phone,
13:22he doesn't know what you're talking about.
13:23Yeah.
13:24I might make exceptions for certain scenes
13:26that have actions in them.
13:28Pull down a screen at the house.
13:30Just in case there's action in the scene.
13:32Let's get a wider view.
13:33Yeah, exactly.
13:34We can go back to the phone for the talking.
13:37LAUGHTER
13:38Talking of sexy scenes,
13:40Jesse Osberg, you in Fleischman is in trouble...
13:43Oh, yeah.
13:44You were supposed to do a nude scene,
13:46but you were unsure.
13:47No, I did the nude...
13:48I wasn't sure, yeah.
13:49I mean, I'm never sure.
13:50I take a shower every day and it convinces me otherwise.
13:52LAUGHTER
13:53What?
13:54It's like to not do a nude scene.
13:55Got it.
13:56OK.
13:57Confirmed once again.
13:59LAUGHTER
14:00And now get dressed and leave the house.
14:02LAUGHTER
14:03I called my wife, I had like a sex scene,
14:05I called my wife and I was like,
14:07they asked me to be naked too.
14:09And my wife was like, is the woman naked?
14:11And I'm like, yeah, yeah.
14:12And she goes, then so are you.
14:13And she's like, oh, OK.
14:15I called my wife and I thought she'd be like,
14:17are you kidding?
14:18You're not coming back into this house.
14:19You're naked.
14:20But my wife is like an activist before she's a wife.
14:22And so she was like, if the woman is naked, you are too.
14:25Oh, that's a...
14:26Oh, yeah.
14:27APPLAUSE
14:28And...
14:29And...
14:30I'm trying to get through it, have you done
14:33sort of those sorts of scenes, the love intimate scenes?
14:36Yeah.
14:37Are you allowed to ask these questions?
14:38Hmm?
14:39Are you allowed to ask these questions?
14:40Yes, I'm qualified.
14:41LAUGHTER
14:42As a host.
14:43She is.
14:44Um, yes, I've done a couple of sex scenes,
14:46but for some reason I'm always asked to do
14:48the really unsuccessful sex scenes.
14:50No!
14:51Yes, the one where, you know, it's over really quickly
14:53or where the...
14:55I asked the person to pretend to be a corpse
14:57because I otherwise don't know how to get it up.
14:59I've seen that.
15:00Those kinds of things, yeah.
15:01We only film...
15:02I've never had a good sex scene.
15:03We only film Bridgerton down the road,
15:04so we'll get you on a bike and get you in
15:06and we'll make you look real quick.
15:07Really?
15:08Yeah.
15:09Really, I don't think that that's my speed.
15:10I don't have the power to do that.
15:11I've had more masturbating scenes than I've had sex scenes.
15:13And, uh...
15:14My mom stopped watching the show
15:16when I jerked off on a window.
15:17She watched the show.
15:18It's like season one.
15:21It's a great show.
15:22But I've seen that.
15:23That's the one I've seen.
15:24That's the one you've seen?
15:25That's the one you tuned in for.
15:26That's the image I have of you.
15:27So that you've got to see the show.
15:32Now, talking of beautiful images...
15:34Now!
15:35Off sex!
15:36So, queer all set in Mexico, but filmed initially.
15:39Gorgeous locations.
15:40Or not.
15:41Well, some of them are lovely.
15:42Like, the beach is lovely.
15:43Oh, the beach.
15:44The beach is lovely.
15:45There you are on the beach.
15:46Where is that?
15:47Sicily.
15:48Beautiful.
15:49But it was less beautiful in the doing.
15:51Oh, yes.
15:52There were just, like, these three-inch thorns all over the beach.
15:55And we had to run with abandon across the beach.
15:58And you're like,
16:00Fucking hell!
16:01And I'm like,
16:03Fuck, fuck, fuck!
16:05It is really hard to act in sand.
16:07And people don't talk about this enough.
16:08They don't.
16:09I was like...
16:10Let's now.
16:11What the hell is that next?
16:12You're all denying it.
16:13Now it's like...
16:14No, but I was once asked to film something where I walk down a sand dune
16:16looking really cool and you can't.
16:18Maybe you can, actually.
16:19But I can't.
16:20You can't get the purchase in the sand.
16:21No, because you're just sort of slipping and it's hard.
16:23Actually, this is close to sand.
16:25Because, Daniel, you did a weird thing.
16:26So, what was it?
16:27There was gravel and you thought we don't want to use the gravel.
16:30Right.
16:31There's a sequence where we do a dance.
16:34I won't give the game away, but there's a dance in the movie.
16:37And we were doing outside on the back lot.
16:41And they...
16:42It was just ground.
16:43It was gravel.
16:44And we had to sort of roll around for, like, two nights.
16:46I was like,
16:47We're going to get cut to pieces.
16:48We're naked in the scene.
16:50And...
16:51Woo!
16:52Just one whoop.
16:54I'll take it.
16:55Still got it.
16:56Um...
16:57And someone very kindly said,
17:02That's not going to work.
17:03You're going to be...
17:04We're going to be bleeding.
17:05It's not going to be very good for the scene.
17:06So, we got back the following night and someone had put, like,
17:0850 pounds of coffee grounds down the ground to look like dirt.
17:11Dirt, yeah.
17:12Like dirt, which is great.
17:13Soft and lovely.
17:14But you can absorb it through your skin.
17:15So, by 6 o'clock in the morning, which was a night shoot, you're like,
17:16Yeah, I'm going to get a night shoot.
17:17I was like...
17:18Good reaction, boys.
17:19Is that true?
17:20Yeah.
17:21That's true.
17:22It's true.
17:23It's true.
17:24That's unbelievable.
17:25No, it is true, yeah.
17:26That's crazy.
17:27Yeah.
17:28So, if you just rub the coffee on yourself?
17:29Well, I mean, if you roll around in it for 12 hours...
17:30OK.
17:31OK.
17:32We did...
17:33I'm not sure if you just rub coffee and you're going to...
17:34It's not the same as having an espresso.
17:35No, no, no.
17:36I have such a sensitivity to caffeine, maybe I should just...
17:37Me too.
17:38Maybe I should just take a little walk in it.
17:39Yeah, walk in it.
17:40Oh, it's very nice.
17:41It's very soft.
17:42Barefoot, just stroll back and forth in it.
17:43Yeah.
17:44It's very soft.
17:45It's very soft.
17:46Barefoot, just stroll back and forth in it.
17:47Yeah.
17:48I have such a sensitivity to caffeine.
17:49Me too.
17:50Maybe I should just take a little walk in it.
17:51Yeah, walk in it.
17:52Yeah.
17:53Oh, it's very nice.
17:54It's very soft.
17:55Barefoot, just stroll back and forth every morning.
17:56Yeah, because I can't do a full cup, but maybe I could take a little stroll.
18:01I'll pour cream on it too, just to make it...
18:04I'd like to walk on some coffee and sugar this morning.
18:07Well, just a reminder, you can see Queer in Cinemas right now.
18:12Very good.
18:13CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
18:17You might have noticed that Christmas is coming.
18:21And guess who's starring in the Doctor Who Christmas special?
18:24Uh-huh, it's only Nicola Coughlin.
18:27CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
18:30It's on Christmas Day, BBC One, and then globally on Disney+.
18:36The episode is called Joy to the World.
18:39Nicola plays Joy, and here she is checking into her Christmas hotel.
18:43Oh!
18:48Hello.
18:50Very Christmas.
18:52I'm Joy.
18:54Welcome to my room.
18:56And I thought I was going to be lonely.
19:08What?
19:10The starseed will bloom and the flesh will rise.
19:16What?
19:18What is going on?
19:20Almond cheese toastie and a pumpkin latte.
19:27Oh!
19:28CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
19:31I was about to clap myself.
19:32I was like, aww.
19:33That was great.
19:34So, should he go up to his face there?
19:37So, does the Doctor know Joy?
19:39No, he doesn't.
19:40He's just being friendly.
19:41He's looking for a friend.
19:42Yeah, it was a really fun experience filming that.
19:44Because you know the way...
19:45Russell T Davies called me and was like, would you come to Cardiff?
19:48Russell Davies is the nicest man in celebration.
19:50He's amazing.
19:51And I was like, yeah, I'll come.
19:52And I said, but to be honest, I don't know anything about Doctor Who.
19:54I didn't watch it growing up in Ireland.
19:56We didn't have the channels.
19:57You will understand what that means.
19:58I so do.
19:59OK, so in Ireland, he didn't have BBC growing up, so I didn't really know it.
20:03So I said this to Russell and he was like, it's fine, just come.
20:05And I thought, well, you know, I'll do a little research.
20:07I'll maybe just start with the Wikipedia page.
20:09That's fine.
20:10Yeah.
20:11That's like me saying, I'm just going to pop off for five minutes
20:13and read War and Peace.
20:14It's so confusing and there's time travel and aliens and, like,
20:18I don't know how many doctors and...
20:20But I went and had a lovely time.
20:21I was very akin to, like, being there and not knowing what's going on.
20:23You know that at every wedding there's, like, one really old woman
20:26and she's, like, not a grand...
20:28She's, like, someone's grand aunt and she sat there,
20:30but she's just having the best time.
20:32That was sort of me on set.
20:33I didn't know what was going on, but I was loving it.
20:35You know?
20:36Were people trying to explain to you as it went along?
20:39Oh, yeah, massively.
20:40And also, like, everything films out of sequence anyway.
20:43But then you add time travel to the mix, you're like, well...
20:45So I'd be like, and would that be an alien now?
20:49And they were like, you're working with the Silurians.
20:52I was like, I know.
20:53LAUGHTER
20:55Yeah.
20:56So, that is a hotel.
20:58That's a hotel.
20:59There's a door in your room.
21:00Got one of those adjoining doors and she's checked in on her own
21:02on Christmas Eve and you kind of go, why?
21:04And then an alien comes in, as they tend to do.
21:08Yeah.
21:09And then the doctor comes in, Shuti, who's amazing.
21:11And, yeah, he's amazing.
21:13He smells amazing.
21:15It's weird, because often do you get this?
21:17Do people say, like, when you work with actors,
21:19like, what do they smell like?
21:20No.
21:21No.
21:22LAUGHTER
21:23That's a bad sign.
21:24Me neither.
21:25I never...
21:26No-one asked me what you smell like before tonight,
21:28not even one person.
21:30LAUGHTER
21:31LAUGHTER
21:36APPLAUSE
21:37I mean, Shuti Godwell, very good.
21:39Jesse Eisenberg would make a good Doctor Who, though, wouldn't he?
21:41Oh, God, yeah.
21:42Do you have to be British?
21:43No.
21:44No.
21:45Really, I could use my accent and talk like myself?
21:46Yes.
21:47Yeah, yeah, do it.
21:48Can I wear my clothes?
21:49Yes.
21:50OK, great.
21:51Probably.
21:52There's no nude scenes in Doctor Who.
21:53Worry not.
21:54See if we can get some, then...
21:57Come back.
21:58And actually, Akira, you're married to a British woman, aren't you?
22:00Yes, I am, yeah.
22:01And you've got children.
22:02Is she bringing them up in the grand tradition
22:04of watching Doctor Who?
22:06Not yet.
22:07They're only three and five.
22:08That's a little...
22:09Don't you think?
22:10Really?
22:11I just haven't done that then.
22:12We're lazy.
22:13But I heard you talking about how your wife...
22:16Because you've been together a while now.
22:1813 years, yeah.
22:19OK.
22:20But still, there's newness to her Britishness.
22:22There's...
22:23Oh, yeah, there's always new Englishisms that come up all the time.
22:25I remember, like, the first...
22:26The first one that I heard when we first started dating.
22:28We were, uh...
22:29We were watching wrestling at home.
22:30WWE.
22:31There was this...
22:32Yeah.
22:33First date.
22:34Nobody moved.
22:35First date.
22:36Nobody...
22:37No booming.
22:38There was this wrestler called Big E, who was this really big, muscular guy.
22:40Big biceps, you know, pecs all that.
22:42And he had a singlet on him.
22:43Before he would do his, like, finishing move, he would take off one singlet and the other to signify.
22:47And we were watching TV and she went, that's right, love.
22:49Get your baps out.
22:50LAUGHTER
22:52And he was like, what?
22:55Give me that word.
22:57And I've just been taken.
22:58We were talking today about how chuffed is an amazing word and we don't have anything like it in the States.
23:01No, nothing.
23:02There's nothing quite...
23:03There's no equivalent.
23:04But also, you guys have...
23:05Sorry, it's a whole audience of people that's maybe going to take this the wrong way.
23:07You guys have the most adorable little expressions and words for things.
23:11No, not at all, no.
23:12It's funny.
23:13Really?
23:14You know what I just learned the other day?
23:15He goes, we just had a little chinwag.
23:17What?
23:18It's a chat.
23:19It's a conversation, a chinwag.
23:20Chinwag.
23:21How adorable is that?
23:22Yeah, that's pretty cute.
23:23And if it's a nice day, you've got to bring your sunnies.
23:26That's pretty cute.
23:27But if it's raining, bring your broly.
23:28How cute.
23:29Adorable.
23:30The most adorable thing is that you guys say poo.
23:33The cutest sentence I think I've ever heard anyone say is, I done a poo.
23:38But what do children in America do?
23:41They're shit.
23:42I don't know.
23:43I don't know.
23:44I don't know.
23:45I don't know.
23:46I don't know.
23:47I don't know.
23:48I don't know.
23:49They bite their ass.
23:50It's like, you know.
23:51You've got that wrong, Tyran.
23:52I don't know.
23:55OK.
23:56Yeah, yeah, yeah.
23:57Now, Doctor Who, what you have just done, famously shrouded a mystery.
24:01In fact, you have told us more about an episode of Doctor Who than anyone on the show has ever said about an episode of Doctor Who.
24:07Did you see Panic of Minds?
24:08I was like, did I?
24:09There's a man over there for the BBC being like.
24:12No.
24:13No.
24:14No.
24:15Because how, are they very strict on set?
24:17Yeah.
24:18OK.
24:19So, like I said, I didn't really know what was going on.
24:21So you couldn't reveal...
24:22I can't tell you anything.
24:23I don't know.
24:24But it was great.
24:25It was brilliant.
24:26I had the best time.
24:27I left him and I don't know what I did, but I loved it.
24:29Yeah.
24:30But secrecy, you must be using...
24:31Because I didn't realise that on Bridgerton you were the very first person cast.
24:36Yeah.
24:37And then how long did you have to hold on to that secret?
24:39Well, they were like, don't tell anyone.
24:40I was like, OK, Mum.
24:42It's too hard, isn't it?
24:45Because I think you have to keep the secret from the world.
24:48My character in the show, this is a big spoiler, sorry, but I just don't...
24:51I don't know if you're going to watch it at Christmas.
24:52I'm just going to take the chance that you're not and tell you.
24:54So basically my character is a secret gossip writer, voiced by Julie Andrews.
24:58And you find out at the end of the series, it was very exciting.
25:00But then immediately, I found it on the internet.
25:02Right.
25:03So I auditioned, didn't know what it was, Googled it and I was like,
25:05oh my God, that's a brilliant character, that's amazing.
25:07And then immediately I told my friends, I was like,
25:09there's a secret writer and guess who it is?
25:10It's me.
25:11And then my friends and family were all like, well, you ruin everything.
25:15But they will also hound me, I don't know, do your friends and family do this?
25:19Hound you for information and what's...
25:21No.
25:22No, they don't.
25:23No, as a matter of fact, on my show, I kept the big thing
25:26that I'm not going to ruin for you of the last season, Logan Dies.
25:30Yeah.
25:31Oh, you haven't seen it either.
25:36Yeah.
25:37But you knew he died.
25:38Yeah, that's right.
25:39Yeah.
25:40But I kept that a secret from my wife for an entire year.
25:43Oh my God.
25:44Which was really hard.
25:45Yeah.
25:46And then, it was so hard to do.
25:47And then I remember at the end, I sat on the floor while she sat on the couch
25:50because I didn't want to give anything away and I didn't want to see her reaction to the episode.
25:54And then when it ended, I remember looking back at her expecting big things.
25:56She went, I mean, I kind of knew.
25:58She was like, I think she gathered it.
26:01Oh.
26:02Like, there were like things she would catch and I would cover up with a lie and be like,
26:05well, no, because they actually did something on our set where they had Brian,
26:08there was clearly a funeral scene that was being shot, but they had Brian show up to set.
26:12This is Brian Cox.
26:13He got papped, Brian Cox.
26:14Yeah, he got papped.
26:15And Matthew McFadden's not in that scene at all.
26:17Oh my God.
26:18So there was like online speculation, oh, maybe it's his funeral.
26:20Yeah.
26:21And Brian was there in costume.
26:22They had him dressed in costume to sort of, but things still snuck out.
26:25And I had to just lie to my wife for a year and no payoff.
26:29But I remember that you are amazing in that funeral.
26:33That breakdown is just astonishing that you do.
26:35But was the church full of extras who then went out and blabbed and went,
26:39you'll never guess what we've just done.
26:40That's what's crazy is it was full of people that all knew what it was.
26:44Cause I mean, some of the people had the, what are the fucking things called at a funeral?
26:47The things I went to offer and I didn't remember.
26:50Sure. Yeah.
26:51And some of them had a different character on it.
26:52Some of it was like James Cromwell's character, but James Cromwell's actually in the funeral
26:56and he gives a speech.
26:57So it's a little bit weird.
26:58I don't know why they're doing that.
26:59I clearly am talking about my father in there, but that was extraordinary that it didn't leak.
27:04And also the way that we shot it, they filled the church with background actors,
27:09five cameras we shot on film.
27:11So they had to like, you know, constantly reload and there was no rehearsal.
27:15There was nothing.
27:16The director Mark Milad just stood up at the thing with the microphone and just explained,
27:20like, we're just going to run the whole funeral procession from the casket coming out of the car at the front.
27:24And then the guy who ran the funeral actually runs funerals at that church.
27:27And we just ran the entire thing for about an hour.
27:29We just did a funeral service and without a rehearsal, but we'd all read it,
27:32but we never talked about it.
27:33And then it was like, when it was my turn to go up, I'm getting up and in the script,
27:37I'm supposed to be interrupted by somebody else, but we never talked about it.
27:39And I'm seeing it and I'm...
27:40It was just like an amazing way to do something.
27:42We just shot the entire thing all in one and then it took about an hour to reset
27:45and then we ran another funeral service and that was pretty much it.
27:47We did it twice.
27:48A couple of little pictures.
27:49Yeah.
27:50It was cool.
27:51Amazing that it didn't leak.
27:53Amazing that it didn't leak.
27:54Because in terms of secrecy, I mean, presumably, Daniel, on James Bond,
27:58the scripts were under lock and key, no one had to know.
28:01You'd like to think so, but they did leak.
28:03Oh, did they?
28:04Online sometimes, yeah.
28:05So we'd have to change everything.
28:07Oh, so you'd do that?
28:08You would literally change the film?
28:09No, it was early enough that you were going to change it,
28:11but they would get out, yeah.
28:13But apparently it wasn't like that on Queer.
28:15No, no.
28:16Well, Lucas is not that precious about things.
28:18I mean, my...
28:20Drew's driver, this 23-year-old kid,
28:22who I'd been on set for a week,
28:24came up to me and just went,
28:25great script!
28:27LAUGHTER
28:29But Lucas, he just, like, gives it to everybody.
28:32What do you think? What do you think? What do you think?
28:34But don't you think the drivers on sets,
28:35they're the ones who know everything?
28:37This is true.
28:38If you want to know any gossip,
28:39you go to the driver and you're like,
28:40come here, where are we filming next week?
28:42They're like, well, the wedding is here and you're like,
28:44a wedding!
28:45They know everything, yeah.
28:47They're the gossip writer.
28:48They are.
28:49Yeah, they're the real lady whistle-downs, yeah.
28:50And, Nicola, Joy, Doctor Who,
28:53will she return, do you think?
28:55Careful.
28:56Careful.
28:57LAUGHTER
28:58I nearly had her.
29:00Well, look, I had a lovely time in Cardiff,
29:02so I don't know, I don't know how it works,
29:05but I'm sure if they want me back, maybe.
29:07Have you kept...
29:08Time travel.
29:09Time travel, I guess.
29:10You kept on your Airbnb.
29:11That's my point.
29:12My Airbnb.
29:13Well, do you know when I was there,
29:14I was like, I'll eat really healthy one here,
29:16and then there's Chip Bialy in Cardiff.
29:18It's a famous lane of chip shops.
29:20Oh, wow.
29:21They do curry chips there.
29:23So, you know...
29:24It's so well.
29:25I really took in the culture, you can sense it.
29:27LAUGHTER
29:28She will return.
29:29You can see Nicola in Doctor Who on BBC One on Christmas Day
29:33at ten past five.
29:36Welcome to British Television, boys.
29:38Ten past five.
29:39I know.
29:40APPLAUSE
29:42You remember that.
29:43Yeah.
29:44Not five past.
29:45Ten past five.
29:47Jesse Eisenberg and Kieran Culkin bring us a real pain.
29:52It's in cinemas from the 8th of January.
29:55And, Jesse, I mean, this is your baby.
29:57You wrote it, directed it, you star on it,
29:59and it's certainly based on a very personal,
30:02very personal family story.
30:04Yeah, yeah, exactly.
30:05I mean, like, you know, the movie is, like, semi-autobi...
30:07I was writing fiction, but essentially I was just using
30:09everything that I've heard growing up about my family history.
30:12My family comes from southeastern Poland.
30:14Um, we...
30:15Really?
30:16LAUGHTER
30:17Is that the same person that wooed for him?
30:19LAUGHTER
30:20I think we have a serial whooper.
30:22Yeah, got it, got it.
30:23Exactly.
30:24Um, yeah.
30:25And so we even, you know, there's a scene, you know,
30:27towards the end of the movie where Kieran and I visit, like,
30:29the house that our grandmother supposedly lived in,
30:31and that was the house that my family lived in up until 1939.
30:34Wow.
30:35So we just ended up doing, you know, it was a movie,
30:37but I didn't want to...
30:38I wanted to make everything kind of as authentic as possible
30:40because it cost the same as making it not authentic.
30:42LAUGHTER
30:43And so you play...
30:44You play two cousins.
30:45You play two cousins on this kind of weird tourist trail.
30:50Yeah, exactly.
30:51In fact, this movie was originally set in Mongolia.
30:53I was writing it based on a story I wrote that took place in Mongolia
30:56of these same two characters, but going to Mongolia for another reason.
30:58The next movie.
30:59What's the next one?
31:00Next one.
31:01And it was not going well, the script was not going well
31:03until an ad popped up online that said,
31:05Auschwitz tours with lunch, in parentheses, with lunch.
31:08Oh, good.
31:09I was like, what the hell is that?
31:10So I clicked on this ad banner, and it took me to a site of essentially,
31:14like a kind of, you know, middle-class American tour
31:17of Holocaust sites, you know, but where you, like,
31:20stay in a nice hotel, and then you eat a nice continental
31:22breakfast, and then you visit Auschwitz.
31:23Yeah.
31:24And did you go on one of the tours, or is this your imagining
31:26of what it might be like?
31:27This is my imagining of what they are, yeah.
31:29But I did a lot of research with brochures.
31:31Yeah.
31:32LAUGHTER
31:33So, yeah, it was, you know, but the tone is kind of like
31:36watching these real guys who have an irreverent relationship
31:38go to places that warrant reverence.
31:41Yeah.
31:42Should we see a little clip of the two boys in action?
31:44Uh, this is the two of you on tour.
31:47Uh, it's gone a little awry.
31:49This is the cousins.
31:50All right, I guess everybody's waiting in front for us.
31:53Mm-hmm.
31:54Maybe.
31:55Uh, hey, Duder?
31:56Yeah?
31:57Yeah, we're not at the right station, dude.
31:59Sorry, what?
32:01Yeah.
32:02Oh, shit.
32:05What the fuck is Krosnick?
32:06Yeah, Krosnick.
32:07We're supposed to get off at Lublin.
32:08No, I know.
32:09Yeah, you were out pretty fucking cold, dude.
32:11Sorry, I mean, we passed Lublin already.
32:13Like a while ago.
32:14And you didn't wake me up.
32:15Oh, you were having such a good nap, dude.
32:17Jesus Christ, you were on a twerk group with people.
32:18Yeah, I know.
32:19I just didn't have the heart to wake you up, man.
32:20You have, like, the most fucked up sense of priorities.
32:22Do you know that?
32:23Do you know that?
32:24Dude, don't get mad at me, okay?
32:25How can I not get mad at you?
32:26Because I was, like, staring at you while you were sleeping,
32:28and people were looking at you,
32:29and some people were fucking laughing at you
32:30because you were snoring all weird and loud and shit,
32:32but I was thinking, like, fuck that.
32:34This is my cousin Davey.
32:35I'm not ashamed of him.
32:36This is Davey on the bench in Chinatown.
32:38This is the guy I used to have all of myself.
32:40I just couldn't wake you, man.
32:42Oh.
32:48Having seen the clip,
32:49I now remember I was supposed to warn people
32:51there was a lot of swearing in it.
32:54And were you guys friends?
32:56Always friends?
32:57No.
32:58So you met for this?
32:59Yeah.
33:00Okay, but what's also weird, too,
33:01and I need to just tell the world this,
33:03because you think this is normal and it's just not.
33:06He cast me without auditioning me
33:08or seeing me in anything ever.
33:11What?
33:12And he goes, yeah, but that's fine.
33:13I'm aware of you.
33:15I was like, wait a minute,
33:16he's like, I met you before.
33:17I was like, we met twice in passing.
33:18Yeah.
33:19And you put me in your mood.
33:20He's still like, yeah.
33:21He has an essence.
33:22What's wrong?
33:23Look at his essence.
33:24His essence.
33:25How could you not pass his essence?
33:26Yeah.
33:27It's so true.
33:28It's so true.
33:29Yeah.
33:31You can't get an essence
33:32and give somebody,
33:33is that how you got a part?
33:34Yeah.
33:35That's not how you get a job.
33:37An essence.
33:38It's the greatest acting in the world.
33:40Like, I don't know how to describe it,
33:42except it just felt exactly right.
33:43He's amazing.
33:44Well, you are, you do seem brilliant.
33:45I mean, did you, but you weren't,
33:46in your head when you were writing Benji,
33:48you weren't thinking of...
33:49No, no.
33:50I was going to play that role.
33:51And then I was just waiting.
33:52Took it from him.
33:53Yeah.
33:54Yeah.
33:55And is it true, Karen,
33:56you weren't going to do this film?
33:57You didn't want to do it?
33:58At one point, yes,
33:59I did try to back out of this film.
34:01Whoops.
34:02Yeah.
34:03Two weeks before we shot.
34:04Not at one point.
34:05Oh, yeah, yeah.
34:06Two weeks before we...
34:07Yeah.
34:08He didn't know that.
34:09They kept him in the dark about the me
34:10trying to get out of the movie thing.
34:11Glad I didn't.
34:16You made a good movie.
34:17It is a really good movie.
34:19It is a really...
34:20Yeah.
34:21And you're both...
34:22It baffles my mind that you were going to play Benji.
34:23Same here, yeah.
34:24Yeah.
34:25Because you both seem so perfect in those roles.
34:26Oh, thanks.
34:27But...
34:28Thanks.
34:29Yeah.
34:30But we can.
34:31Do different characters.
34:32Yeah.
34:33What did you say?
34:34Don't take it personally.
34:35Yes.
34:36But now, you say you've only met a couple of times,
34:38but at one of those meetings,
34:40it was an audition, wasn't it?
34:41Yeah, exactly.
34:42That's where we first met.
34:43And it was in 2008,
34:44and I had no recollection until Kieran brought it up.
34:45I brought it up like a couple of weeks ago.
34:46I know how you feel.
34:47He didn't...
34:48Yeah.
34:49Yeah, I'm very memorable.
34:50Thanks, guys.
34:52That's not a goddamn dream.
34:53Yeah.
34:56You want to tell the story?
34:57I leave an impression.
34:58No, you tell the damn story.
34:59You tell the story.
35:00I actually never heard it from your perspective.
35:01Because it's less interesting.
35:02You talk.
35:03Really?
35:04Jump in.
35:05Jump in if I get something wrong.
35:06Yeah, we were at an audition for a movie
35:08that I was already acting.
35:09It was called Adventureland,
35:10and I was already in...
35:13That's a lot.
35:14Good.
35:15And so I was like already in...
35:16So he...
35:17And Kieran came in to audition.
35:18The character that Kieran was auditioning for
35:20was supposed to like constantly like hit me
35:22and manhandle me
35:23and like knock me around and stuff.
35:24But none of the actors auditioning would do that
35:26because it's so...
35:27You know, you don't...
35:28You know, we're in a union.
35:29And so...
35:31But then Kieran came in,
35:32and not only did he like punch me in the groin,
35:35which is what the character is scripted to do,
35:36he also grabbed my breasts and twisted them.
35:39And as the director, too quietly said,
35:42cut, please cut, please stop, please stop.
35:44Kieran was grabbing onto my chest,
35:46looking over and saying,
35:47what?
35:48What?
35:49And so I remembered this thing,
35:51I think unconsciously,
35:52which is that like I was kind of in control in this room
35:55and yet somebody came in and like stole the room
35:58and also was brilliant.
35:59And that's what this movie is.
36:00Like I pay for this trip,
36:02I arrange the tour
36:03and yet he comes in and takes over immediately.
36:05Worth noting I didn't get the part.
36:07Oh, OK.
36:11But do you not remember that?
36:13No, I remember that.
36:14He didn't remember it.
36:15Oh, OK.
36:16What was going on in your head
36:17when you decided to do that to him?
36:18What?
36:19Head?
36:20I don't have one.
36:21I don't know.
36:22I wasn't thinking.
36:23Obviously I'm not thinking.
36:24That's not part of the preparation.
36:25It's like, OK, on this line,
36:26I'm going to touch the left nipple.
36:27There's no, no.
36:29But I do remember when he stopped us,
36:30I was still holding your nipples,
36:31taking the note.
36:32I was like, uh-huh.
36:33OK, OK.
36:34So do you want to go back to the beginning?
36:35Oh, sorry, by the way.
36:38But do you do that a lot at auditions?
36:40Do I touch nipples at auditions?
36:41No.
36:42If there's like, let's say,
36:43if there's a kissing scene in a movie
36:44and you're auditioning for it
36:45and back to the scene.
36:46Do I kiss the person that I'm...
36:47Yeah.
36:48What do you think?
36:49I did that once.
36:50Did you?
36:51And never again.
36:52Why would you do that?
36:53Because I was 13.
36:54I had no idea.
36:55You were 13 and you kissed somebody
36:56at an audition with.
36:57Did she punch you?
36:58Yeah.
36:59Or what happened?
37:00I think I...
37:01No, I didn't get punched.
37:02It was worse.
37:03I heard from my agent not to do that again.
37:04Yeah.
37:05That is worse, actually.
37:06Oh, you'd be sick.
37:07Yeah.
37:08You'd be sick.
37:09Nickel and Daniel are just going,
37:10Oh, my God.
37:11Yeah.
37:12I did.
37:13I told you this earlier today.
37:14I did get a job once.
37:15I auditioned for something.
37:16It was the play Suburbia
37:17copyright was the Eric Magosian.
37:18And there's a part where, like,
37:20the character buff has to mime giving a blowjob.
37:23And I got the part that day.
37:25No, don't.
37:26Just stop.
37:27Mime, I said.
37:29But I said...
37:30He goes, you know what it was?
37:31It was the blowjob.
37:32And I said, oh, why?
37:33Did none of the other actors, like,
37:34drop to the knees and do it?
37:35He goes, no.
37:36You were the only one that cut the balls.
37:37Oh, my God.
37:42That's acting.
37:43Put that on your shelf.
37:44Yeah.
37:45You can just get that one...
37:50Always cut the balls.
37:51There's going to be a dance mix.
37:52There's going to be a dance mix.
37:53You've got cut the balls, cut the balls.
37:56Always cut the balls.
37:59Oh, shit.
38:00I can't believe.

42:53Well done
42:54So Stella, Georgia, Renee
42:57Do you know anyone on the couch
42:58By the way
42:59Have you bumped into anyone
42:59At showbiz parties
43:00And things
43:01We haven't met
43:02But from TV
43:03We know you well
43:04Love you
43:04I saw you guys perform
43:06At maybe it was
43:07Glamour Awards
43:08Oh my god
43:09That was Tara Babies
43:10No, I didn't know
43:13They're amazing
43:14We've come a long way
43:15We have pre-pubescent
43:16So hopefully
43:16They're amazing
43:17We've actually met before
43:19You just don't remember
43:20That was from your debut album
43:27Access All Areas
43:29Which is out now
43:30I love that sound
43:36That kind of R&B sound
43:37But it's quite kind of nostalgic
43:38That you seem too young
43:39Did you grow up
43:40Is that the music
43:41You were listening to growing up
43:42Yes
43:42Thank you to our mums
43:43Oh, are the mums here
43:45Hello mums
43:46Thanks a lot
43:48There's some
43:52There's some great music tastes going on
43:55100%
43:56That is beautiful
43:57Now, I assumed
43:59FLOW was an acronym
44:01It stood for something
44:02Or that you'd be like
44:03Florence, Louise, Olive
44:05But that is not the case
44:08We also wish it was an interesting story
44:11Yeah
44:11So do we
44:12Yeah
44:13We're all rooting for you
44:16I mean, it's quite random
44:18But it's cute
44:19It's cute
44:20It's the type of story
44:21That we'd get chucked off the red chair
44:23So where does it come from?
44:26Well, we were brainstorming
44:28Lots of different names
44:29And we used to go to this place
44:31To write music and bond
44:32And a fat, fluffy, white cat
44:36Would like come in
44:37Like, it's not our cat
44:38We don't know it
44:39And we were like
44:39Oh, let's call it Flo
44:40And then for some reason
44:43We were like
44:43That could be a potential name for us
44:45Well, no
44:46We were going through other names
44:48Like
44:48Terrible names
44:49Her story
44:50Minx
44:52I think Minx has been done
44:55It wasn't quite right
44:58But even when we said to people
45:00That we wanted to be called Flo
45:01Everyone was like
45:02Ugh
45:03Yeah
45:03Period app
45:04Menstrual cycle
45:06It's a branding opportunity
45:16Yeah
45:17It's a collab
45:19So Flo is going on tour
45:24Yes
45:25There you go
45:26All over Europe
45:28And then Glasgow
45:31Manchester
45:31And Birmingham
45:33And London
45:33Hopefully that performance
45:35Will have sold lots of tickets
45:36Hopefully
45:36It's a beautiful, beautiful sound
45:38It really is
45:39Thank you very much
45:40For that gorgeous performance
45:41Good luck with the album
45:42And the tour
45:42Flo, everybody
45:43Really lovely
45:46Thank you
45:47Right, nearly it
45:50Before we go
45:51Just time for a quick visit
45:52To a big red chair
45:53Who have we got?
45:54Oh, hello
45:54Hello
45:55Don't look so tense
45:56It'll be fine
45:57I am nervous
45:57What's your name?
45:59Brenda
45:59Brenda
46:00Where are you from?
46:01The accent's Canadian
46:02But I actually live here in London
46:03Okay
46:04And what do you do here, Brenda?
46:05I'm actually a mum
46:06Okay, lovely
46:07How many kids?
46:12I'm embarrassed to say
46:13One and he's 24
46:15But he's still a kid
46:18Wow
46:19Oh, Brenda
46:21I know, for him
46:22That's a red chair story
46:24Right there
46:24Off you go with your story, Brenda
46:27Right
46:28So my story is about Adele
46:29And I was travelling with my son
46:32Who was
46:33It was about 10 or 12 years ago
46:34And we were in a small regional airport
46:37In the north of Denmark
46:38And we were already boarded
46:40And we were sat in row three
46:41Which was the first row of economy
46:43Sort of right in front of the curtain
46:45And then there was business in front
46:47Two rows
46:47Interesting
46:48Yeah
46:48Empty
46:49Completely empty
46:50And we were all boarded
46:52And there was a bit of a delay
46:53And we just didn't know
46:54There was no one in business class
46:55And then I could hear
46:56What they were saying at the front
46:57The pilot came out
46:58And he said
46:58What's going on
47:01What are we waiting for
47:01And they said
47:02Well, actually
47:03We're waiting for Adele
47:04And my son and I went
47:06Adele
47:06Who doesn't love Adele
47:08We're going to be breathing
47:08The same air as Adele
47:10And so we waited and waited
47:13And we were so excited
47:14It made sense to us
47:15Because she actually had played
47:17At a venue not terribly far
47:18Of course, yes
47:19Yes
47:19Quite
47:20So we were looking out the window
47:22Looking out the window
47:23And we were thinking
47:24When she gets on
47:25And we get to altitude
47:27And the wind
47:28And that curtain snaps shut
47:29We're going to maybe sing
47:30Hello from the other side
47:32And then we were getting
47:35More and more excited
47:36I'm so tempted to flip you
47:37But I want to know what happened
47:39So we
47:41The big car pulls up
47:42And we say
47:43This is it
47:44This is Adele
47:44She's coming
47:45We're going to be best friends
47:46Then the door opens
47:48A guy comes out
47:50And he bounds up the stairs
47:51Carrying something
47:53The pilot had left behind
47:55And it was a laptop computer
47:57And it was
47:57Adele
47:58I mean
48:05It provoked a similar emotion
48:09We kept waiting
48:10And then that arrived
48:15Okay, that really is all
48:18We've got time for
