05:06amazing family and also great that you put all that work in and then it was a
05:10success just limping around the world here's more of it no thank God and now it's a warm
05:29welcome back to Rosamund Pike the last time we were here it was a zoomie thing and you
05:33were assuming us from a cabin was it in Eastern Europe somewhere it was my home
05:39a cabin in Eastern Europe my home in Prague it didn't would do you have any lights it
05:47looked very dark well it was locked down it was we were you know honkering down like the rest of the world
05:56the last time we were on broadcasting for your beautiful home in Prague we all at
06:06NVIC you you you went a bit you you kind of found new fame but in a very niche way oh my gosh yeah
06:14you asked me about my family my children speaking Chinese and you asked me if if any if they taught me
06:20anything and I came out with one thing they taught me which is a Chinese proverb I suppose you'd call
06:26it and and apparently that clip went viral around China and now I am recognized as the girl who tells
06:33fart jokes and speaks proverbs about farting so when I was doing the play in the summer at the National
06:41Theatre people would come and bring me pillows and teddy bears which when I press the button would come
06:47out with this Chinese phrase to cause a funky
06:59okay if it's a funny Michelle let out a little part
07:07now Jackie you've also found international fame from a story on the show it's very different to Chinese
07:15proverbs but yes I do sometimes get recognized for my appearances on the Graham Norton show the last
07:20time it happened I was on tour in Australia and I was in an airport with my family and a guy recognized me
07:26he was like oh yeah we love you Jack Whitehall yeah that story you told on Graham Norton about not being able to
07:33flush your shit down the dunny and he stamped my passport and let me through people remember that story and then
07:41they just come up to you and say it with like no context okay so uh Glenn the challenge is on yeah

07:51Pete what was the name of the place we grabbed dinner Dorian yes Dorian we this place has has one bathroom

08:05like you go to the bathroom and there's like toilet paper already like on in the bottom of the toilet
08:10yeah right so I'm just like lift up the seat pee do the thing and flush and I realize now why there

10:36death so everybody uh yeah and if you win you get a billion dollars
10:40wow it's a it's a it's a hell of a it's a hell of a show and this is based on a stephen king short
10:45story is that right yeah it was it was um stephen king wrote a book in in like the early 70s came
10:50out in 82. it's set in 2025. that's what i love i love that he set it this year which is wild because
10:56everything that's happening in in the story it's like all about like sort of deepfakes and like fake news
11:02and all the things that are kind of happening around it and like it's a this all predated reality tv
11:07wow that's pretty wild yeah obviously it is the running man and clearly there is a lot of running
11:11yes in this show so who better to advise you than king of running uh mr tom cruise that's correct uh
11:17yeah because he is yes he is
11:22and did he advise you he did i mean you know i sort of thought tom was going to give me like
11:28i mean you've been doing stunts like your entire career i mean this was like kind of my first you know
11:32time being out in front of an action movie and you know so i was just like all right what do i need to
11:35know about you know kind of being in front of a thing i thought it was gonna be like a 10 minute
11:39phone call it turned into two and a half hours like about him being like this is how you don't die
11:43wow doing it you know doing an action there's a lot of ways i mean i don't think i really realized
11:48you know you're like okay like the explosions are are real but i know kind of when they're coming he's
11:52like no those can kill you and like you know you jump off a bridge like things snap you know people are
11:56tired you know so it was like really tom kind of giving me a low down but he also kind of gave me
12:01running lessons he kind of said uh you should film yourself running because you don't look as cool
12:07as you think you do and he was really right like yeah i don't think i don't know if the last time
12:13like you've run on camera but you start paying attention to other people running you're like
12:16humans are weird looking things when they're trying to go fast you know and so yeah i tried to
12:21you know meet with a sprinting coach and kind of do it right and uh tom i mean you i guess credit
12:26tom with this amazing career opportunity of top gun oh absolutely yeah yeah i mean top gun was a
12:32movie that changed my life and there was a time in which i wasn't going to do it you know i i originally
12:37auditioned for uh miles teller's role the ball of rooster yeah and so then i get a call from joe
12:43kosinski who's the director and he called me i remember it was uh it was on july 4th and uh i was
12:51wearing an american flag tank top i was on my balcony having like a tequila soda and and joe
12:59kosinski uh called me said hey uh you know we're not giving you the role we're gonna it's gonna go
13:03to miles and uh and my buddy thought i was getting top gun so it's me sad in an american tank top he was
13:10filming me getting this like super sad phone call on an american flag tank top on july 4th
13:15just like that's not great but then tom and i sat down and um you know he he kind of gave me the
13:21advice he's like you know i i said i just don't think the the role is was up to up to snuff and i i
13:27was a little bitter i was kind of like the you know you don't want to get broken up with and then be
13:31like hey can we still be friends you know i was kind of like you know i didn't think the role was
13:36really there and he said you know how i've you know kind of done my career and i said how and he said
13:40well i don't you know choose you know the roles i choose the movies you know he goes i choose good
13:46movies and then i make the roles great and so he kind of convinced me right then and there and it was
13:49like the best decision i've ever made that is really good advice because uh rosman you worked with uh
13:54great tom cruise and jack reacher uh you reached out to him for advice didn't you tom is amazing you
13:59remind me of him actually oh okay great you know in a kind of there's a there's a there's a lovely warm
14:05quality about you all right he has you know i mean we've we're on television
14:13i'm gonna get the scissor sisters uh text a little later maybe i i yeah i think i might write better
14:20text um you've had more than enough to drink um but but tom no he i mean he is a he does sort of
14:28strike one as a mentor because he's been in the business for so long and he started so young and
14:32he's been a lead for his whole career really i mean i love his advice about you know not choosing
14:37the roles choosing the movies but he has had the best roles in all the movies it's great advice but
14:43also you know um but the night before i started filming gone girl i was so frightened because i'd never
14:51had that sort of pressure of a of a character in that kind of book with that level of director
14:57and those eyes on me and having to be american and all the rest of it and i i couldn't sleep and
15:02at four in the morning i thought who who can i write to to get something and i wrote to tom
15:07saying i'm not up to this and i'm terrified and i'm and he wrote me back the kindest letter that
15:14immediately because he obviously knew the call time was coming in about three hours yeah and he sort of
15:20said you know you've you've got this and you are ready and and and other things but it was a very
15:26it was a very significant gesture yeah um of someone with that level of fame and people writing to him
15:33and probably how busy he is i mean the guy sleeps one hour a night or something i mean you know that
15:39could have been his hour of sleep he was very tired the next day and glenn tell me this because
15:47topcon you you know you were in it you saw it you knew that you were good in it this is going to
15:51change your life and then it got delayed and i don't remember this because of covid it kept getting
15:57delayed you must have been going out of your mind well it's also like you're going out of your mind
16:01you're also running out of money you're also like oh man i'm sort of waiting for this movie to come
16:07out for for my career to start i'm a very poor movie star very poor movies like it's not great you
16:12know uh and and so you know and every time it got delayed i would get a call from tom to like let me
16:21know it was getting delayed which was really sweet of him but it was also like you start like dodging
16:26tom's calls like a loan shark you're like tom's calling me again i know what this means yeah please
16:32don't call me again but then it's funny i'm actually hosting snl next week oh cool
16:37yeah and uh which i'm really excited about and uh but i was supposed to host snl
16:46that fault like i so they had to literally uh warren michaels had to take back the offer
16:51for me to host snl so i was supposed to host snl like four years ago wow and so i finally get to
16:56to host next week after so every time top gun got delayed lauren called me up and i'm like is everybody
17:02taking everything in my life i'm a movie star let me be a movie star well listen you can see uh glenn in
17:11the running band from next wednesday very good meanwhile in another part of the forest michelle
17:24yo brings us the epic conclusion to the wicked saga wicked for good it's out on the 21st of november so
17:33this is essentially like the second act yes right so if people missed the first act or it doesn't
17:38matter yeah but you know the yellow brick road yeah so uh you should watch the first of course of
17:44course uh so where do we find uh madame marble now what's going on as we join act two so act two is
17:51much more emotional because as in act one you've met all the different characters and they've made choices
17:58and with choices there are consequences um the yellow brick road is being built and then alphaba
18:05has been ostracized she's now living by herself in the in the forest and she's got the book of spells
18:13which is something that madame marble wants back most desperately so she's made alphaba the wicked witch
18:20when in all honesty madame maribel mm flip it around wicked witch
18:29yes she's a real manipulator wizard of us
18:37i'm still trying to work it out
18:42world wide web
18:43it's stunning i mean john chu as usual with alice brooks um it's such a cinematic experience like one
18:58but this one leads you down paths um you meet who's the tin man who is the scarecrow who is the the
19:05cowardly lion yeah um and most important what happens to alphaba and galinda
19:12and part of madame marble's uh job is kind of promoting glinda as the good witch we've got a clip
19:19and this is you helping glinda on her way the public is on edge so it's more important than ever
19:27that you lived everyone's spirits as only you can
19:34accordingly
19:37oh madam i love it what is it your new mode of transport your very own vehicular spherical
19:46globule so like a bubble
19:53sure
19:53i love me ariana grande there
20:02oh she's brilliant and am i right because you've never been in a musical before never this was my
20:07first time i when john chu bless him because we worked together in crazy rich agents yeah and so he
20:13wrote to me and he said michelle can you read the script i would love you to play madame marble and i
20:18was like madam who and wicked i knew i've heard of wicked but i hadn't gone to see it in west end or
20:25in new york there's a gasp of horror i know how could you so anyway i read and i go i called him back
20:32and go like uh excuse me it's a musical she sings you know i don't sing right he goes nah you'll be fine
20:41and typical of john he can convince you to do the impossible and so he convinced me and i'm so glad
20:48he did because the first time when i walked onto the stage and it was a forest scene and i suddenly
20:55you know it's like you walk in it's silence like this and suddenly you hear a voice
21:02and it was just cynthia warming up she wasn't even singing a song yet
21:06she her voice is just so incredible yeah so when i had my singing and thanks to her i'm in billboard 100
21:15in that song because of her
21:17yeah
21:18that was amazing
21:23they sing life both her cynthia and ariana even when she's in the harness doing all those somersaults
21:31she's singing life it's amazing these two girls are just like little angels and when it came to my
21:37turn to sing with her typical you know we have the tick tick tick and then it's your turn to sing i'm like
21:46i literally was just doing like miming the words and cynthia just took my hand she goes like
21:51i know you can do this i've heard you before and having that kind of you know when someone takes you
21:58out and giving you that confidence was one of the most beautiful things i had and so i sang with her
22:05and we were on billboard 100
22:11this is rare uh very rare we have not one but two uh bond girls on our sofa
22:17and then michelle you were in tomorrow never dies both your bonds were pierce cross is it true you
22:32said no to this you didn't want to do it or is that not true that's not true i thought i was offered
22:37to play 007 you know yeah good idea yeah i'll do that yeah because i didn't fit in the traditional
22:47bond girl i thought so i had to prove them wrong yeah
22:57but pierce was keen that you did be fighting yes he's amazing he's uh you know when you're confident as
23:04a man right when you see a woman fighting you go good for you you know how to take care of yourself
23:11i don't have to lift you up all the time so when we did the action sequences barbara broccoli and michael
23:17wilson were fantastic i'm sure you knew them and she they i brought my own team from hong kong i would
23:24love for you to do stuns in hong kong if you love to do your own stuns i would love to do that yeah that's
23:29the place i will not be a bond girl no okay i will do the bond girl thing okay and we did this whole
23:38action sequence in the bicycle shop you know and the because in hong kong we don't have rehearsal times
23:46we walk onto the set fully dressed ready to go and we are told exactly what we have to do so right there
23:53and then they'll say okay these two guys are coming at you and we shoot it right away that's how oh my
24:01god i know super dangerous super dangerous but i think that's this way we've always made movies in
24:07hong kong in the 80s because that was how it was um and pierce would just come onto the set fold his arms
24:14watch and go like yeah i like this so yeah he was really really cool he didn't have any uh feeling that
24:22and i and it's true you're james bond who's going to take that away from you right totally yeah so we
24:27had a great time because rosman am i right that you you didn't know a lot about bond no i mean this
24:33story makes me sound like an idiot i was so young but that's very sweet of you it's not really an excuse
24:42yes i hadn't no yes i hadn't i hadn't seen a bond film when i got cast is that but your parents were
24:47very very protective they thought they were we didn't have a television okay weirdo
24:55she grew up in a cabin
24:58it's lovely it's really nice it's not committed at all she lives off-grid in frog
25:07but then you got invited to audition yeah yeah and they said you know just wear you know some of your
25:12own clothes you know some some business attire and an evening dress and i didn't have well i didn't
25:18have business attire so i had to go to my neighbor and borrow that but i did have evening dress because
25:23my mother was a was a was a singer so she had a great sort of 80s evening dress made by my grandmother
25:29which was beautiful kind of big silk taffeta you know like a peacock had huge roses on it i thought the
25:36roses were a bit much so i took them off anyway i arrived with this dress in its huge bag you know
25:41at the at the audition and the costume designers and barbara broccoli looked at this dress and they
25:46said well that that is that is a very very beautiful dress but but bond girls don't wear things more like
25:52this and they held up what looked like to me like five pieces of string
25:56and um i realized then that i had a whole education yet to happen but you got the part
26:05i did well they thought we've got to teach this poor girl something
26:10listen you can see michelle in wicked for good from the 21st of november yeah

29:10is how you do this job how you do ill in this business which of course you know for all i know
29:17they were my character and they were just hiding it but you know maybe well weirdly someone who does
29:22know about the whole jewellery industry is jack whitehall this is so weird what what didn't you do
29:28oh no no didn't you no i did an event recently yes the louvre no it wasn't the louvre
29:42i was doing this thing i was booked to do the jewelry awards the grand prix de la hoche joa
29:47valerie in monaco and it was full of french speakers it was like the sort of oscars of
29:52jewelry they put me as host for some reason and uh i was like what the hell am i going to talk about
29:57at jewelry awards and then it was the same week as the louvre heist so i was like oh my god thank you
30:02comedy gods like there's my monologue i turn up to this event it was all french speakers i was the only
30:08person speaking english on the stage uh the woman that came out before me was like the anna winter of
30:14jewelry and she gave a speech in french that obviously i did not understand but i was
30:18subsequently told that in the speech she had said quite earnestly that the louvre heist was one of
30:24the most tragic things ever to happen to the french people and that the nation would rally together
30:30and get through this difficult time ladies and gentlemen jack whitehall i walked out in a high-vis vest
30:35with a load of prop jewelry that i bought on sheen and i was like right who wants napoleon's tiara
30:43fucking tumbleweed
30:45i think i said the word heist five times in my monologue which it turns out a jewelry award
31:00saying heist is like shouting bomb at an airport it was horrendous i love that thing that came out a
31:07couple of days ago that their their security password uh is louvre probably with an uh with a zero
31:15instead of no no no just not even an exclamation mark at the end just news yeah got it uh reminded
31:22that now you see me now you don't that opens next friday uh but if psychological thrillers are your
31:31thing jack whitehall brings us a new series it's called malice and it's out on the 14th of november
31:36on prime video and uh here is a bit of the trailer hi you must be jamie yeah adam so nice to meet you
31:47oh man he showed up imagine you you're here for the kids yeah i'm pre-leading really
31:54but let's see how the other half live well welcome to our vacation i believe that's our song
32:01i'm sorry i see what you mean about him he cooks he actually plays with the kids
32:16there's something something what i don't know go on then what is the worst thing you've ever done
32:22i was saying to you backstage this is so impressive it's a really different sort of
32:32role for you so tell us who you play what's going on yeah so i play adam who is this very charming uh
32:39manny tutor that's invited into this wealthy family's home to look after their kids but he's uh
32:46got an ulterior motive and is sort of hell-bent on getting vengeance on david dacovny's character
32:52who plays the sort of patriarch of the family and and it is properly it goes to really dark places
32:58yeah i mean it's kind of got a white lotus-y vibe there's a little bit of as rosman was saying
33:02backstage wealth porn there's definitely a bit of that sort of you know glamorous uh you know picturesque
33:10greek island and all of that but then yeah it's got a kind of talented mr ripley vibe as well this
33:16cuckoo in the nest thriller but yeah for me it's just a completely different part to anything i've
33:20ever played before because i'm playing a proper villain in it and uh yeah it's uh it was really fun
33:26and now there's quite a lot of sexy time in malice there's a little yes my character is also um
33:32um sexually quite adventurous oh yes and episode two everybody episode two the second episode he
33:42attends uh a sex club and participates in an orgy um of the of the homosexual variety well i think
33:49of this all welcome everyone's welcome yes um your phrase just came into my head there that's definitely
33:56not appropriate for a television show yes any holes of gold no i uh please do and please do um anyway
34:05oh god my mum and dad are in tonight i uh right so yes he goes to an orgy and i read that on the
34:11page and i was like oh you know my head it's like sort of eyes wide shot it'll be quite erotic
34:16far from erotic we filmed it at eight o'clock in the morning on a tuesday in a strip club in watford
34:22called beavers and i was there with a lot of other people and there was one gentleman in particular
34:29who i had to have quite a lot of intimacy with and he was uh not a bond girl he was a middle-aged
34:37man from hemel hemstead called jeff he was stood there with like a cushion strapped around his midriff
34:43and the actual intimacy with him was quite awkward but the most awkward bit was like the breaks in
34:49filming when there was like a little pause and then we had to get the chit chat yeah yeah during
34:54one of the breaks of this very intense scene he genuinely turned to me and went jack i hope you
34:59wouldn't mind but could i get a selfie
35:03i was like uh yeah maybe we could wait till after the orgy
35:07it's not orgy etiquette to have a selfie he was like it's just that my son's a really big fan of yours
35:13i thought he won't be when he sees this
35:18and that starts next friday and jack whitehall everybody
35:25okay it is time to meet our music guest tonight this man has won four grammys and seven brit awards
35:32and is one of the biggest names in pop music please welcome mr ed sheeran here we go
35:48i'm good excellent now do you know glendo no no oh well now you do i know who he is oh
36:05not as close as me and jack but we'll get there were you in the orgy as well i was
36:10i was it's a busy time yeah i'm still left out it'll be season two don't worry michelle yo a big
36:20ed sheeran fan big fan we've met we've met before yeah yeah the med gala you were so sweet
36:26that was a mad night it was the first time i'd ever been to anything like that and it was like
36:29uh you know you go in on your own and suddenly there's just everyone you've ever seen ever wow
36:35is that the first med gala you've been to yeah i don't know i'm kind of like i feel like i've done it
36:40now you know it was like there was a curiosity yes and um it was fun you could walk up to anyone
36:45they didn't no one had any entourage so you could just walk up to anyone be like my orgy
36:50but he had a beautiful suit on okay yeah nice not just a cushion
37:02is that what it was for
37:03i think it's amazing there's a strip club called beavers
37:18we're very excited ed because you are performing for us tonight
37:20i hope so yeah no you are i hope so we all hope so there's a lot of lights over there
37:27something better happen uh what are you performing for us uh playing a song called camera
37:31ah okay that is off uh the album play but now play is out in a deluxe you've got the new though
37:38yes this is the deluxe one it's out on the 28th of november and it's sort of like it's almost like a
37:42coffee table book it's gorgeous yeah do you know what i there was a few like iterations of uh this
37:47record i did a lot of like uh exploring musically and different different things and then i ended up just
37:53moving to india for a bit and making uh the record there and finishing it with like amazing indian
37:58musicians and producers and uh translators and and blah blah blah but there was like a good two
38:04months where i made a load of songs with dave as a producer that on on this but they sort of live in
38:09their own world but they didn't necessarily live so the the iterations of the record are essentially
38:15the extended version of this now this one's called play and we know you know a lot of your album
38:20titles were kind of the mathematical symbols multiplied so play is this so this is a new era
38:26yeah so this i kind of see this as it's called stereo it would be like play pause rewind fast forward
38:32stop and i don't want to bring everyone down but you have already got a plan for a posthumous album
38:38yeah i think that's just sensible i think i've had i've had friends die without wills and it's
38:43fucking chaotic and all i'm saying is i have a uh i have a plan for when i pass away i know what songs
38:50i want at my funeral i know where i want to be buried i think that's a sensible thing to have
38:53and there's so many ed you're very organized i don't know but i think that uh there's a lot of
38:59posthumous albums that have come out of artists that we know and love that i don't know if they'd have
39:04wanted them out in in that sequence or the mixes of it or blah blah blah so all i'm saying is when i
39:09pass away the thing that comes out is the thing that i want to come out and has that album got a
39:14title eject what the eject tour yeah i don't know maybe i'll just be putting formaldehyde and just
39:30sort of taking it and it's very exciting we must mention the uh documentary film one shot this is
39:36going to be on netflix it's directed by uh philip barantini now he's the man who directed boiling
39:42point and adolescence so one shot is the thing so what is your one shot i think i honestly think that
39:50this is the best thing i love it i've done in my life it was while i was doing it i was kept looking
39:56at phil being like you're mad the fact what his mind does like the fact it was one camera and we start
40:03in a venue and then we go out the venue and bear in mind it's all live there's no like extras it's
40:08just people that we meet on the street and by we did three takes and by the third take it was like
40:13chaotic people knew that we were doing it we couldn't really like move around but we go from the stage
40:17into a taxi we then drive in the taxi to the high line and then we walk across the high line and then
40:22we play a gig all all playing songs as we walk and then we get on the top of a bus and the bus gets uh
40:28there's a traffic jam which we didn't like uh um take into account and then i get off there and then
40:33i go into a hotel we go up to the top of the hotel they then put the camera on a drone which flies down
40:38as i'm performing and then i run across to an irish bar and then i leave the irish bar and get in a car
40:43and then i drive uh from the car to the subway then i get on the subway uh travel then play another song
40:49walking to the venue and then play a gig it is it's mad like really really mad i love it we've got a clip
40:55this is i just love this this is very near the end yeah so this is you're in a shop you're buying a
41:00hat and then you're walking out towards the venue to start your gig and so this guy didn't know you
41:05were coming into the store well this is the second time we shot it oh i see so he knows he was aware
41:10this time okay but we did we did one that was like a rehearsal that went terribly wrong and then you're
41:15you're singing the whole time yeah these guys were on the subway with us beforehand and they would just
41:20but they followed you yeah and so this is the you can see the theater you're just approaching the
41:24theater now and then at some point someone says hurry up hurry up am i on time am i good on time
41:39cheers mate and this is the theater you left an hour before and then they filled it with 2000 fans
41:44yes within within the hour how you feel it yeah great great great great
41:55i love this here we go
42:10i genuinely think that's the best thing i've ever been involved in in my career
42:23seeing you walking to that theater has got us all in the mood for hearing you sing right so if you'd like
42:28to head over to the stage there goes mr ed sheeran he's approaching the stage he has arrived here performing
42:41camera it is ed sheeran
42:43you should see the way the stars illuminate your stunning silhouette you're glowing in the dark

43:10beauty in abundance but you do and that's the truth

45:12But I'll keep holding on
45:15To every little detail in the fabric of the night
45:18Never letting go of it inside
45:32I don't need a camera to capture this moment

46:10Ed Sheeran and the Flames Collective Youth Choir
46:15Come on back Ed!
46:17Such a lovely job, thank you so much
46:21The Flames Collective Youth Choir, how broad is your name?
46:24Thank you so much tonight
46:26I feel under great
46:27I feel under great
46:28Just sit for your land, sit for your land
46:31That choir, so lovely, Flames Collective Youth Choir
46:33So good, yeah, yeah, so good
46:34Well thank you very much guys, thank you so much
46:37Thank you very much
46:40And, talking of young performers
46:43Ed Sheeran, you've had, this sounds unlikely
46:45You've had a busy week in Parliament
46:47Yeah
46:48Yeah, yeah
46:49Tell us what happened
46:50I wrote Keir Starmer a letter
46:53Because I feel like the arts in general, but in schools
46:57Have really been like, underfunded and cut over the last, well ever since I was a kid
47:04And I feel like, I went to a state school in Suffolk and my music teacher was fantastic
47:10And I feel like he is one of the reasons why I am where I am
47:15And we were just sort of rapidly losing that
47:18And I feel like as a country, like yes, we have a lot that we offer as a country
47:22But the thing that we're most proud of, like that we're really proud of everywhere we go around the world
47:27Is our art, it's, it's, it's our painters, it's our filmmakers, it's our actors, it's our musicians, it's our poets and comedians
47:38No but seriously, but the arts
47:40And it's the thing, you know
47:42I wasn't even mentioning television
47:46If, you know, and also not just that, like financially it brings 7.6 billion music alone into the, into the UK economy
47:54And so to like, defund all of that
47:57And then wonder where the next generation of like, art is going to come from
48:01And you know, so I wrote a letter to Keir
48:03And I said, for one thing, there's a thing called EBAC that was put on music
48:08That basically, it made it the DOS subject
48:11That if people took it wouldn't count as much for universities and blah blah blah
48:14So I asked for that to be removed
48:15I asked for funding to be put into underprivileged schools for, for music
48:19I asked for the curriculum to be changed so it wasn't so classically focused
48:24It could be like pop music or it could be rock music or it could be things that make kids want to go
48:29Do you know what, I want to learn a Taylor Swift song
48:31Not, I have to learn Bach and be able to read
48:33Because that, that's not the way that I learnt music
48:35So, I asked for curriculum change and I asked for, um, instruments to be bought for schools
48:41And I sent this letter maybe like eight months ago
48:44And I just thought he'd just read it and gone, do you know what, like, I'm in enough shit at the moment
48:51But I got a letter back from him, maybe two months ago
48:54Just basically saying, thank you for your letter, I'll have a think about it
48:57And that was kind of it, and then about two, three days ago
49:00They said, oh, they're going to bring it up in Parliament
49:03And he approved it, and it's, yeah, it's gone, it's gone, yeah
49:07And it's like
49:09That's so, that's amazing
49:11Yeah, I think it's like
49:13It's the first, it's the first step in a lot of, um, a lot of things
49:18I think that, um, Keir Starmer has listened to the first step
49:21That my foot's in the door now, and then I can continue badgering him
49:24Ed, thank you for caring, and I'm sure kids up and down the country
49:27Thank you for that
49:28Yeah
49:29Yeah
49:30Always a treat to see you, and thank you for that amazing performance
49:32Ed Sheeran, everybody
