00:02I kind of felt like it was cardboard and rubber bands.
00:05I know, it's shocking.
00:06You're used to the sci-fi world, obviously.
00:08Yes, it's been a while, but yeah.
00:10Was it nice stepping back in?
00:12It was, actually.
00:14Things have moved on a bit since I last dipped my toe in.
00:19And this is much bigger than anything that I've been involved in before in the sci-fi world.
00:25Way back when, when we were doing X-Files,
00:30I feel like we were kind of doing it in the way that the early days of Doctor Who was.
00:39It kind of felt like it was cardboard and rubber bands kind of thing,
00:43is what it kind of felt like at the beginning.
00:45And I think the films, and yeah, anyway.
00:50Yes.
00:51Well, it's the year I feel for Comebacks Oasis boys now.
00:54How about giving David a call?
00:56Everyone would like to see it, wouldn't they?
00:58You mean, oh, that.
01:00Sorry, it took me a minute.
01:03Perhaps, perhaps, perhaps, yeah.
01:05Great.
01:06And when you were, how many years ago?
01:081982, wasn't it the last, the first drawn?
01:10Yeah, first one, yeah.
01:11Do you have memories of it?
01:12I do, yeah.
01:13Do you believe you're now in the franchise?
01:15It's kind of extraordinary.
01:18I mean, it feels very much like the whole franchise has kind of caught up with history in a sense.
01:26I mean, I know at the beginning when the first film came out, it really did feel like science fiction and that everything that was in the film was really, really in our future.
01:38But, you know, there's quite a lot that's in the film, which is in our present, which makes it even more terrifying.
01:48So, it feels very timely, yeah.
01:52And your kids must think you're very cool these days in this.
