06:59Was in a film that Cillian was the lead in

07:01And he was

07:18That was very cruel

07:19That was very cruel

07:20That was very cruel

07:21You should have seen him then

07:22Yeah

07:23Well, listen

07:24We've got lots to talk about tonight

07:25But let's start with the big one

07:26Taylor Swift's new album for 12th is

07:28The Life of a Showgirl

07:30And

07:31This is exciting

07:33Here it is

07:34This is

07:35Black Show album

07:36And

07:37And

07:38You've gone all out

07:39Look at the fold out

07:40Yeah

07:41There's all kinds of stuff in there

07:42And

07:43This is cool

07:44The

07:45The album is the same colour as the

07:47The glittery

07:48Thank you for noticing

07:49Are they all like that or is this a collector's

07:50They're all like that

07:51It's

07:52It's

07:53It's

07:54It's

07:55It's

07:56It's

07:57I love creating vinyls that are

08:02Completely unique inside and just doing different things

08:05There's also a poem on the inside

08:07Saw it

08:08Saw it

08:09Vinyl flap

08:10And there's different poems on each variant

08:12Um

08:13And

08:14If

08:15No, I'm not going to tell about that

08:16But they'll figure that out

08:17There's something about the poems that's fun

08:19Oh

08:20Okay

08:21Yeah

08:22Please hold

08:23Yeah

08:24No, because I just got this

08:25So

08:26I haven't read the poem

08:28Now it's out today

08:29And it's kind of

08:30I mean you were writing these songs while the era's tour

08:33Was going on

08:34Yes

08:35I was writing it during the European leg which was

08:37Last summer

08:38And it was actually like the craziest schedule that we had on the European tour

08:42Like

08:43Um

08:44So I was more physically exhausted than usual because it was a three and a half hour show

08:47It's all in heels

08:49It

08:50It

08:51Was

08:52I was starting to sort of get sick and kind of worn down

08:53And so I thought I really need something to sort of spark up my imagination and creativity

08:57Yeah

08:58And hopefully that will fuel my physical exhaustion

09:02And it did

09:03Because I would do like three shows and then I would fly to Sweden and make three songs

09:08And then do three shows and it was having that little like secret passion project behind the scenes

09:13That was

09:14That really helped me not ever hit a wall on that tour

09:17Wow

09:18So

09:19Listen, we've got a little taste of the first single on the album

09:22Eh

09:23The Fate Of Ophelia

09:25Here it is

09:26New

09:27New

09:28New

09:29New

09:32New

09:33New

09:34New

09:35New

09:36New

09:37Shaking

09:39New

09:40New

09:41New

09:42New

09:43New

09:44New

09:45New

09:46New

09:47New

09:48New

09:49New

09:50New

09:51I couldn't have liked it more and you know what strikes me I remember you were on this show before and you were talking about how you write songs that are you know kind of in your wheelhouse they're easy for you to sing that song sounds like more of a stretch am I right or wrong yeah I think that I think it's a little bit harder to sing but I think the wheelhouse is a little bit of a bigger wheelhouse now that the Aero store happened like I'm a little bit like I think I could

10:21you know sort of do anything while running in heel I'm just sort of like it's given me the confidence to write like higher choruses and jump the octave and do falsetto stuff and like don't take a break for 35 seconds it's like I'm like I don't know like I'm pretty sure I could do it now that I've done that tour so let's talk about some of the other tracks on the album Opalite is such an earworm it's prop thank you it really is thank you my dad is excited somewhere that's his

10:51favorite oh great so it obviously appeals to the dad demographic

10:55no it doesn't it's also it's also yeah this is great no it's my fiance's favorite too oh okay yeah but

11:03and but opalite I think there's a beautiful idea behind the idea of opalite yeah it's it's basically I

11:09become obsessed with certain phrases or words and one of the words on my long list was opalite because I

11:16learned that just like they can do man-made diamonds you can do man-made opals um and it's called opalite

11:22and I just thought that that was such an interesting metaphor if you take it and you apply it to the fact

11:28that oftentimes in life we have to make our own happiness it's not just there it's not just naturally

11:33in place we have to make our own happiness and get through life and it says like you had to make your own

11:39sunshine but now the sky is opalite and it's just basically like you you are happy because you did

11:45that on your own it's kind of like fake yourself happy kind of thing exactly fake it till you make

11:49it I do that all the time yeah I believe you've done it really successfully write the book and I

12:01mentioned the ears tour I'm sure lots of people here were at that uh it was phenomenal it was so so

12:10good the thing that was and this is not a complaint wow yeah I think that was Wembley that looks like

12:15Wembley three and a half hours when did you know was it like opening night when you realized oh this

12:23is three and a half hours we tried so hard to get it to be shorter than that but that I just I just I

12:31wanted to over deliver you know I I really wanted people to get more than they expected it just really

12:39felt like something that I had to do because I'm like I know these tickets are gonna be hard to get I

12:44didn't know how hard they would be to get and people are gonna like I don't know people have lives and

12:50priorities and if they're gonna dedicate any part of those lives to coming to this big show to

12:55packing stadiums like this I want to over deliver on production over deliver on the length of it the

13:01exertion the the the kind of surprises they're seeing and I'm really I'm endlessly proud of feeling

13:08like we achieved that oh you so did you really really did people were there I thought it was so lovely being in the

13:19stadium the atmosphere you knew that in that stadium have already been like 90,000 people

13:23nothing bad was happening no one was having a fight there was no argy bargy kicking off

13:29everyone was having the loveliest time it was the loveliest time yeah and people I would hear all these

13:33stories about people making friends and the whole friendship bracelet thing was pretty beautiful too

13:38where people would make friendship bracelets and they would trade them with each other and they'd meet each other

13:43they are the friendship bracelets yeah and it was kind of the sweet thing that the fans did on their own we

13:47didn't like market this this wasn't like a thing that we did or else I would have invested in beats

13:53Taylor we'll talk some more as we go on but for the moment just a reminder that the album the life of a showgirl is out now

14:04right

14:10Cillian Murphy Cillian Murphy brings us an extraordinary new film it is called Steve it is in select cinemas and available globally on Netflix now and to give us a taste

14:19here's a bit of the trailer so they're asking everyone to describe themselves in three words

14:25focus

14:31cheeky

14:33sex doll busted

14:35angry and bored

14:37these are extraordinarily complex young people

14:43please tell me you know it's not all right to be out here at like breakfast time getting fully baked

14:49stevie dick this is the thing you can't just casually call me a dick

14:55how are you doing I'm worried about you

15:01all I want for you is to just speak to us because you're not alone sure

15:07all right

15:09all about you Steve let's talk about you

15:14Steve you can't do it all okay

15:17all right I'm here for you perhaps there's a limit

15:21you don't love me

15:25why do you fucking give a shit

15:28it really is an extraordinary film and brilliant brilliant performances in it

15:37and people might know Max Porter has written many ways and this is based on his book Shy

15:42yes

15:43which apparently you read and thought that isn't filmable

15:46yeah Max and me are pals and he gave me the like the proof of the book I was very lucky to read it before it came out

15:52and it's like a beautiful compassionate piece of work but it's all inside of Shy's head

15:58it's like a stream of consciousness from you know inside of his character's head and I thought like well some books shouldn't be adapted and then

16:05we were like we'd made two pieces of work together and then we thought we were trying to figure out what next to do next and then

16:13he had this brilliant idea to kind of spin the story on its axis and to kind of adapt the world of the book rather than the book itself

16:20so there was this minor character in it who was Steve and he kind of began to show that it all happens over 24 hours

16:27they began to show like the you know what happens over that day through Steve's eyes and then overlay it with Shy's experience

16:34and who is Steve?

16:36so Steve I guess is a very overworked, underpaid, quite broken, trying to do the right thing, headmaster of a kind of reform school in the 90s in Britain

16:47and it's interesting you decided to keep it in the 90s

16:50yeah

16:50why did you decide to not bring it to now?

16:53I mean well there's a few reasons, the music was so good then

16:57and like Max is obsessed with drum and bass and he wrote the book Listen to Drum and Bass and I was 20 in 96

17:08my kids and Aaron, he's like 18 now so and also we could tell a story where we didn't have to deal with smartphones and the internet and all that

17:16yeah yeah yeah and you talk about the music in this film, the 90s drum and bass, was that your, because you took music very seriously, was that your music?

17:25I love drum and bass, I always found it really difficult to dance to, do you know, there's a lot going on, it's very thrashing

17:32yeah, it's all that polyrhythms in it, I could never, I was never that guy, no, but, but I, I did listen to it and

17:39yeah, but when I say you took your music seriously, you were in a band and not just, you know, and often people were in bands, did you, you got a five album deal?

17:48what?

17:49well, yeah, technically we did, yeah, yeah

17:52what does that mean?

17:53I mean, yeah, we, we were kids and we, yeah, we got offered, we got offered this record deal, um, I don't know why I'm telling you

18:00yeah, so enjoy your chart success, it could have been me

18:07five albums is too long a term, yes, I thought it's too long a term, they'll just sign us up young for five albums

18:12that's it, that was part of it, it was, because I, my brother's in the band and he was only 18, my parents went, no

18:18oh, was that, was it, was your parents, because I got, because I, because normally you would pick, like the first bit of success you find, you cling on to it, but you turned it down

18:25well, it was, they wouldn't let him, they wouldn't let him ruin his life, so they allowed me to go and potentially, but then we all just disbanded and it didn't happen

18:33and this was Mr. Green Jeans, sons of Mr. Green Jeans, sons of Mr. Green Jeans, yeah, we've got a picture of you here, now, is that the bus station in Cork?

18:41wow, that's the bus station in Cork City, yeah, oh yeah, I thought it was, I don't know, that's fantastic, that's good

18:47I mean, I don't know, is that building still there anymore?

18:51it is, yeah, poor people might not, it is?

18:53it is, yeah, yeah, is that lovely old, um, that I don't know, I haven't been inside for some time, don't get the bus anymore

18:59who do you think I am?

19:03and actually, talking of you, Greta, you were in a band

19:07oh really? uh huh

19:09what? no, you were, you took music really seriously

19:11I did? yeah

19:13um, so Killian and Taylor

19:17well no, we've got an adorable, this is a picture

19:19I want to know more

21:27which was so

21:28and it was also

21:29the 1982 film was the first time

21:31that any film had computer generated images

21:34which at the time was absolutely

21:35they were like

21:36this is not filmmaking

21:37yeah

21:38they were disqualified from the Oscars that year

23:23Doing the whole set list while doing...

23:24No way.

23:25Yeah, yeah.

23:26It's one of the worst things I did.

23:27Three and a half hours.

23:28It worked, but it's incredibly...

23:29It worked.

23:30It didn't work for me.

23:31Oh, my God.

23:33I tried that and failed.

23:36And it's...

23:37I don't think it's a spoiler, but there's a...

23:38I have to run a lot in this movie.

23:41And there's a difference between, you know, an athlete...

23:44I have to play a human person who is running for their life.

23:47So, when you read a script, you have to pay attention for things like running for your

23:54life, running, and how many times that appears in a script.

23:57Yeah, yeah.

23:58Because, actually, that's tiring.

24:00Turns out.

24:01It is.

24:02And you can do all the things to train and prepare.

24:05And we certainly did to get into top physical form to do this movie.

24:11And we got all the trainers.

24:13I had, you know, the guy who trains Brad Pitt, all the Chrises and me.

24:18All the Chrises and you.

24:19Yes.

24:20That's so good.

24:21Wow.

24:22And, you know, former ex-Navy seal.

24:26And then we realized, because you were also doing your thing, and we looked good.

24:31I'm in my 40s.

24:32I had abs for the first time ever.

24:35Wow.

24:36Nice.

24:38Shout out to Alex.

24:39However, we realized none of it would be shown.

24:44We were covered head to toe.

24:47Deeply upsetting.

24:48Yes.

24:49And I even...

24:50I mean, all that hard work, can you imagine?

24:53I mean, with the Chrises and...

24:55Sometimes it's okay to object to our women, okay?

24:57Yes.

24:58It genuinely was so upsetting after our first fittings, our light suit fittings.

25:05We...

25:06I even pitched to the director a fight scene where our characters could tear each other's clothes

25:13off.

25:14And strategically sort of, like, rip Athena's stomach.

25:18Can you show...

25:19Can you show the work?

25:20Three of the abs.

25:21Please.

25:22At least.

25:23I didn't go for it, unfortunately.

25:24I didn't.

25:25And this was not about sex.

25:26This was strictly vanity.

25:27Yeah.

25:28I am working so hard.

25:30So hard.

25:31So hard.

25:32Someone see this eight pack.

25:33Yeah.

25:34I know.

25:35But now you know.

25:36So at least there's someone.

25:37You got the word out.

25:38and every step...

25:39You guys know, right?

25:41Yeah.

25:42D...

25:43All you do.

25:44But Donald, you have been to the physical rigors of big fantasy movies and things,

25:49because you were in Star Wars, Harry Potter and Black Mirror.

25:54Now Black Mirror, you really suffered for your art.

25:57You really suffered from that was crazy. Thank you Taylor

26:03It was it was crazy. I thought about that for months so good

26:08Yeah, so basically it was this was Channel 4 Black Mirror is before it went to Netflix and got the big books

26:14So this was quite low-budget and I am in it at the beginning and then my character dies

26:19And then he comes back as a sort of a replicant of himself

26:22And the decision was made away from me that he should he appears for the first time from the bathroom

26:28naked and

26:29The decision was made by somebody else that he should be also hairless from the neck

26:33From the neck down

26:35And I was like sci-fi baby. I mean, how are we gonna go about this?

26:38And they I just got back to my trailer at lunchtime. There was a chicken salad and an electric razor

26:49Lunch I've ever had

26:51Yeah, and and I probably had an eight-pack, but I can't remember. Yeah

26:57And now Killian you are such a big fan of Tron. Tell us what you did. Oh

27:02Yes, I asked to be in the Tron. Which one was it the one?

27:07Second legacy

27:09Legacy, yeah, yeah, so I was in that briefly I did like one day in it. Yes

27:15Uncle Dillinger here

27:17You are in the family tree and and then Taylor am I writing the video for bad blood the bit is is a bit of that a Tron reference?

27:34Yeah, we made a little reference to it with I did a music video for the song bad blood with Joseph Kahn and yeah, Jessica Alba

27:41Yeah, she had one of that. We've got a clip. Let's

27:45A little clip of you doing your Tron

27:47Oh, yeah

27:49Yes, it's giving Athena

27:51Right? Look out. She's so amazing

27:56And baby now we got bad blood

27:58Wow

27:59Hey

28:00I think they might have based Athena off of this music video because I'm looking at it and I'm like, wait a minute

28:07I mean it might have based Athena

28:09It would be an honor. Yeah, that was one of my favorite directors to work with Joseph Kahn and Taylor we should celebrate because of course, you now own that video

28:17Yes, you do

28:19Yes, you do

28:21Yes, you do

28:25Yes, cheers

28:27Yes, cheers

28:29Yes, cheers

28:31Yes, cheers

28:33Yes, cheers

28:35Okay, so

28:37No, no

28:38Basically, my big long lifelong dream came true recently which was that I was able to buy all of my music, all of my music videos

28:46The artwork, the album covers, it's everything it's so it's it's your entire catalog and thankfully they weren't they didn't split it up first

28:58They didn't like sell it off sell the music videos these people the album artwork to these people

29:02This album did this it thankfully was all still one

29:07Acquisition but thank you to everyone who came to the heirs tour. That's why I was able to

29:16Imagine it's man. I'm sorry. It's crazy to still talk

29:21Like it's so you and you know like this is you you've changed the business by what you've done. Thank you

29:27I mean, this is this is so cool. It's thank you

29:38Everyone's problem

29:40It's like I very you know, I've I have this policy where I do not respond to like rage baiting

29:46People who want to like try to like provoke me in in a multitude of ways. I don't respond to stuff

29:53But when some this pissed me off so much

29:56Yes, then I that I did say what was going on in my life

30:00Which was that all of the music I had made for my first six albums was sold out from under me

30:05I had been trying to buy them for a very long time. I didn't think I should be given them

30:09I know that they're worth money

30:11I want you to buy them at a premium was willing to it was never given the opportunity to and so I ended up

30:18re-recording and re-releasing

30:20Four of those six albums and I think that that was a huge part of why I was able to get them back the fans really got behind them and

30:28Championed this entire cause I could not be more grateful. I still can't believe it happened

30:32It's it's the craziest thing ever and thank you for bringing that up and for caring

30:43From a big kind of corporate entity and you imagine that there'd be army of lawyers talking to another army of lawyers

30:48But that is not how it went down now. I sent in my mom and my brother

30:51No, no, I so basically it was my music was owned by a company called shamrock capital

31:05We had to try to figure out how to convince them to sell a very lucrative

31:10Entity to us even though it was still making them loads of money

31:14And so I was like the only people for the job are the people who have known me my entire life who know this entire journey

31:20I've been on who have been supporting me and who I work with every day

31:24They both work with me and they are like the smartest people I know and also the most compassionate the kindest

31:31The people who could tell the story of what we've been through as a family. So they went in

31:37And they got my music back for me

31:44By the end of the night Jody and me are gonna be

31:46I know what I heard about him

31:49I heard that same thing but work. I think we started there actually yeah

31:53Yeah, yeah, yeah, I was like girl

31:55Listen, we move on to Donald Gleeson's latest work. It's a very funny new sitcom. It's called the paper all episodes are streaming on

32:02And now and now this show people have heard about it

32:18They know that it is related in some way to the American office. Yeah discuss

32:25Discuss you say tell us at length

32:27Yeah, basically it's the documentary crew from the American office

32:31Yeah, all these years later go looking for a Dunder Mifflin, which was the paper company that they all worked in and

32:37They kind of run out of road, but end up in this place in the Midwest a place called Toledo, Ohio

32:41and they find a an old sort of newspaper that's fallen on hard times a

32:47Local newspaper and it's really not doing well

32:49And they're sharing half the floor with it with the toilet paper company who are doing way better than them and just as they arrive to film this

32:57newspaper and a new editor-in-chief arrives who really wants to make them a great paper again because they're really bad and

33:05He wants to make them

33:07He wants to make them matter

33:09We've got a clip. This is you trying to impress your new bosses

33:13Marv and some of his team are working on this floor while his offices are being painted

33:18Which means he can see everything that we're doing. We're enjoying this meeting. Everyone's sort of nodding nodding a little bit

33:25Okay, yes, right. Yes. I am actively agreeing with you now

33:28You act like you came up with another good idea put up your hand put up your hand. Yes. I don't yes. Yes. Yes. Yes

33:33That is a great idea. I'm gonna write that down. Does that look like I'm writing it down?

33:37Yeah, good good good weird maybe we should just have a real meeting now Adalola you're pointing you're pointing and

33:44Everyone's nodding and I am agreeing and Barry you stand up you stand up. I think everyone's nodding now

33:49We're all nodding at Barry. Yes now Detrick you're gonna jump out of your chair with enthusiasm

33:53You're gonna high-five Oscar go. Yes, and oh

33:57Fantastic fantastic and we're clapping we're clapping and we're thumbs upping. We're thumbs upping and we're nodding

34:03Feel the energy and we're smiling

34:07It is it's properly properly funny and I heard you talking about as an actor how weird it is to then be in a kind of mockumentary that

34:22That's hard as an actor. Oh, yeah

34:24You spend your life being told not to look straight down the lens and and somebody will scold you if you do that

34:29And they have to scrap the take and then all of a sudden you're on a job and they're encouraging you to look down the lens more and kind of have a real

34:35Relationship with the camera which is part of what made the UK office great and made the US office great

34:41And I think it's part of this the people everyone does it in a different way

34:44It's kind of really cool. Is it something you had to learn if you don't mean? Oh, yeah, I was terrible at it

34:48Yeah, yeah, I wasn't doing it enough and Chelsea who was in it who's fantastic plays mayor

34:53They told her after like three episodes you need to stop looking at the camera so much

34:56And they told me you need to look at the camera a lot more. Yeah, can I just say donald's magnetic in that show?

35:01I love that I love that show

35:03I want to say I'm so happy it's coming back and his character is like it's so good loveliest most romanticizing character

35:10He like romanticizes his life and it's really sweet and beautiful and also I don't think that you just sound American you seem American

35:16Yeah, so good like you have to leave you have to leave that in the show

35:23Skyrocket Thank You Taylor

35:33It's just worth watching for donald's dancing alone. Oh, right. Yes, absolutely

35:37Yeah, I'm hoping to get in the Taylor Swift music video

35:46The American accent

35:50Thank you, that's very nice. I'm terrible at accents normally and I've worked really hard on that, so I'm happy at work

35:59This is the first time you've ever lived in LA you moved to LA for this yeah, I was over there for like four or five months

36:06I was over there Tim key is was also over there is a fantastic

36:09Hey, very funny man, so yeah, there's a few of us away from home on that

36:13It was amazing because you're like working in an old like the old studio like Universal Studios and you go in past the

36:18Fake New York Street and all the rest of it and then every morning you're going to work in this place where they've built an office

36:24It was beautiful. Yeah, and good news is you can stay in LA because am I right? It's been recommissioned. Yes, it's season two

36:31Yeah

36:33Thank you very much. Thank you

36:36Very nice. Yeah, yeah, we're really happy about it. Yeah, well, I think we go back January or February we go back and we do another season

36:41Yeah, this is also returning is Peaky Blinders Killian

36:48So there's a movie

36:50Yeah, so is movie done or yeah, so it's done. Yes, and now here's the thing

36:55I love the fact that Peaky Blinders was so successful that that haircut Tommy's haircut in the early series

37:01It kind of took off. It became like, you know, became a thing. I mean, it's so disgusting

37:09Yeah, but you know this the story behind that is it's to prevent lice infestation

37:14Wait, why? How?

37:16Because if you have no hair the lice can't

37:18But there's still all that up on top

37:20They know what that is up there

37:22But maybe they can't even know how to travel

37:24You get like a 60% better chance of not getting them like this

37:26Yeah

37:28Dr. Donal, I mean, I'm in my trailer just doing the thing

37:30Yeah, that's amazing

37:32That's amazing

37:33And when is the movie gonna be in the world?

37:35Next year

37:36Next year

37:37Okay

37:39All right

37:40And because you're here Taylor, I've got to ask you

37:43Is next year the wedding year? Is that when it's happening?

37:46Oh, you'll know

37:50So you're going big

37:51I just mean that I was going to invite you to it

37:54If you're inviting me, it's very big

38:02It's huge

38:06I think I can see Taylor

38:11Well, I'm sure it'll be a fabulous day

38:13Are you in the middle of planning it all now?

38:15No, I just am doing the album thing now

38:18Which is a big thing

38:19Yes

38:20And then I think the wedding is what happens after that

38:23Okay

38:24In the scheme of the planning

38:26Okay

38:27But I'm really, you know, I'm so excited about it

38:30I'm just like

38:32I know it's going to be fun to plan

38:34Because I think the only stressful weddings are the ones where you have a small amount

38:39And people are on the bubble

38:41Yeah

38:42Right?

38:43Yes

38:44And you have to evaluate or assess your relationship with them

38:47Yeah

38:48To see if they should be there

38:49Yeah

38:50I'm not going to do that

38:51Okay

38:52This is why you're invited

38:53Obviously anyone I've ever talked to

38:54Thanks, Greta

38:55Thanks, Greta

38:56Thanks, Greta

38:57There's no bubble, you'll be there

39:05Yeah

39:06We've hung out five times

39:07Do you know what I mean?

39:08We don't have to think about it

39:09It's going to be fun

44:30Cunt

44:31I wondered if it would be that true

44:33I wondered if it would be that true

44:34Thank you

45:38It made everyone so happy

45:42You've got the same outfit on
