00:13One more veg tempura down, one more crispy beef down.
00:17Don't run, don't run.
00:20Don't worry, mate. Don't worry, mate.
00:21No-one can see you. Just go and chuck them in the bin, man.
00:25Hang on, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
00:28I'm going to be an athlete by the end of my shift.
00:30Fucking hell, I've been running since I got here.
00:36Mario, the fuck's going on here?
00:39Gordon Ramsay, he's watching all of us, so, yeah.
00:44It's a bit nerve-wracking.
00:47Gordon being here is pressure.
00:49He sees things that you don't.
00:51Look, we can't walk round the dining room like this,
00:54and look, we have to look left and right.
00:56He's going to walk into a customer sideways, yeah?
00:59Open your eyes.
01:00Holy shit.
01:02Stuff launches are crucial.
01:04They're more important than the training,
01:06because it's got a function.
01:09You sort of find...
01:11You find what's right and what's wrong instantly.
01:15Max, I need you to run to the shop and get cucumbers.
01:18Yeah, that's the tenner.
01:19There we go.
01:20You need as many cucumbers.
01:21Marcus Spencer, you don't get cucumbers.
01:23Run, run, run, run, run, run.
01:24Sometimes it's like a live version of fucking Kitchen Nightmares.
01:27Has he got anything from the sushi counter?
01:30Prioritize and get it out right now.
01:32Every time I get upset with things that have gone wrong,
01:35it's a real upset because it means so much.
01:38You can't just casually...
01:42Don't worry.
01:43I don't give a fuck.
01:44I do give...
01:47a thousand fucks.
01:49No, no.
01:50It's been like 15, 20 minutes with no food.
01:52No, no.
01:52He's fuming.
01:53Lee.
01:54Lee.
01:55There is nothing worse, especially from a customer perspective.
01:58100%.
01:59Go ship together.
01:59Let's go.
02:01Fucking hell.
02:03Mario.
02:04Saw the bottleneck on the pass.
02:06I just saw the bottleneck outside the reception.
02:08So it's got to function better.
02:10It's just not good enough.
02:12Yeah.
02:12Not good enough.
02:13Where's Tana?
02:15Tana's sitting at the table.
02:17The pressure's on financially.
02:19Fucking hell, mon dieu.
02:20So you have to be better than Gert.
02:23We've got so much riding on this.
02:25You've got to make this work.
02:26There is challenges that need tackling immediately.
02:29I don't get it.
02:30I honestly don't fucking get it.
02:32But we'll deal with this because in the morning we're open for business.
02:37And this place is going to be full.
03:05We're on a soft open.
03:06What fridly is that?
03:07I can't remember.
03:09It just got hit too hard.
03:11Yeah.
03:11Yeah.
03:12Unfortunate.
03:16Yesterday it was chaotic.
03:18Everyone was tired and anxious and all that stuff.
03:23So yeah we're all over the place.
03:25For me it can't be anything worse.
03:29i've never had a soft launch that's gone perfect they're not supposed to go to plan in many ways
03:35the more fuck-ups the better and so uh soft earrings are a pain in the ass but a real
03:43important pain in the ass
03:47james sit down you good very good yeah did you get some sleep yeah on a bit of a high
03:52to be honest
03:53thankfully james at rdr high nailed it 100 yeah it's uh yeah been a long time coming getting in
04:00the space feedback i got from the food every course the food was exceptional and well done
04:04you should be very happy thank you yeah i am seriously i mean incredible thank you but let's
04:09be honest there's only 12 seats there and he's had the last six months to perfect that
04:14the flip side to rdr high is that lucky cat has a completely different amount of pressure
04:18they're responsible for nearly 90 of the turnover in that building and uh there's a lot of issues
04:25to sort out lee the yorkshire beast lee let's go uh right first thoughts um the fry station
04:35definitely took us a little harder than expected didn't help the fires went down it just seems
04:41that they're perfectly fine until they get hit very hard and then they're just switching off so
04:44we need to find out why but when you say hit hard that's what they're fucking built that's what
04:48they're built for exactly so why that's the thing it's not again hard yeah fryer yes the fry um and
04:53how backed up did we get when they went down oh uh incredibly we have 22 tickets on us 22
04:57tables
04:5822 22 tickets with items from all in the fry station is there a fry station in the academy
05:04yes there is yep right so you tend to set one up there absolutely right and then i'm not hearing
05:10much response from the kitchen is that you told them to do that uh no not at all no i
05:14think last
05:14night was just just first night nerves and there's a lot we're taking away and you'll see a different
05:18tea tonight so let's get some energy some camaraderie it's an amazing team they've worked so hard to get
05:22here so let the guests hear it let them get confident with that please yeah i just they don't
05:28they need to relax a little bit in there you do okay good job let's go absolutely jesus christ
05:36there's clearly decades of experience in my team but we're in a new space uh it's gigantic and there
05:45are so many areas where it can go wrong so the good news is we're open and the official launch
05:52is
05:52imminent but we've still got a lot to get right the energy levels that we started at last night was
06:00where we need to just keep it we're going to carry on tonight uh we need to be more prepared
06:04we know
06:05what's coming now keep talking to each other answer whenever anyone's calling a ticket don't answer
06:10it feels like we don't know that you know and then it gets messy okay the wish list in the
06:16beginning
06:16of this journey started with opening five incredible businesses at 22 bishop's gate i have to be honest
06:24we've we've achieved three out of the five fucking budget has you know skyrocketed so now we have to
06:33cut our losses park them and focus on what's in hand um and get this thing over the line
06:40so final feedback from gordon we need energy from the team we need callbacks okay so two people away on
06:47table 24 please yes there we go guests love it that's what we need that echoes in the room okay
06:54fool us if we make the same mistakes two nights in a row let's seriously learn okay thank you
07:18what are we doing today getting the cat oscar's birthday present was a kitten
07:24three days after we got this kitten his favorite brother out of the litter was also now available
07:30because the people had pulled out so now we're getting two cats yeah that's lovely oscar come here
07:37right i need to talk to you i've got some serious questions first of all how's your girlfriend
07:47i've heard right what are the names for these cats
07:50keith and simon the most boring names on the entire planet hey mom dad just said keith and simon
08:00most boring names on the planet look at mommy when your name is gordon you shouldn't say things like
08:06that should you have i mellowed i still get incredibly fucking upset when things go wrong
08:12i can't help take it personally maybe i was too too boisterous too young and that i sort of mellowed
08:20out
08:21and now i'm very good at jumping out of one scenario into the next and leaving that shit behind
08:28tana would put my nuts in a vice and then blitz them in a fucking robo coop if i brought
08:34that shit
08:34home i promise you let's get some cool name with the cats like malcolm as a family we are a
08:42team we
08:43support each other fully in what we both want to do and certainly there is no one i would want
08:50to
08:50to do this life journey with apart from gordon oh listen you got what on
08:58fake tag i used jaws is that okay and in fact maybe stress is the wrong word because gordon doesn't
09:06tend to get stressed he just gets more excited but that's the way his stress comes out i suppose
09:13it's he loves a challenge right till's i'm starving cheese on toast i'm gonna wait bye darling
09:22may the best toasty win oh this is gonna be beautiful wait till you taste it ready look this
09:30is the moment flip that over and you go oh ready that does look pretty good tilly's i mean already
09:38she's got uh a mind that is working a thousand miles an hour um i think a definite chef in
09:47the making
09:49that my son oh yes right seriously it's gonna go in the oven for three minutes why the oven well
09:57to melt the cheese yeah but do the water trick do what the water trick it's gonna melt the cheese
10:02because i'm gonna steam it you're steaming bread the bread's gonna go soggy no it's not because the
10:07bread is nice and crispy who in the hell taught you to put water in a grilled cheese it's actually
10:16a
10:16great tip turn that over that's burnt i'm gonna get a picture of it the other side don't touch my
10:22toast no the other side this is just how i like it dad i swear to god that is right
10:28the the moment of
10:29truth oh shit the cheese is not melted it's not melted stone cold no it's got it okay back in
10:38there
10:38right okay now it's got to go back in she's very smart i'm just seeing what she's accomplished at 23
10:46you have experience now you've been in several kitchens next up uh where are you thinking well
10:50that was what i was going to ask you anywhere you think you know you must go there gain some
10:55experience um mountain mountain that's one of your favorites no you went there recently
11:00um seriously dorian yep i love that idea and um kim obviously one of my dreams since i've been young
11:11is to open my own restaurant i've seen you do it i don't i don't feel like it's fair to
11:15say when i
11:16haven't had the experience in a kitchen and that'd be the worst thing to do by the way because if
11:20you've
11:20opened young and failed you've got that for the rest of your life i know that cooking is it's not
11:30just like you do a course and that's it it's experience and i don't have a fraction of that yet
11:36but that's one thing i'm super excited to do and get dad has got to where he is because of
11:43everything
11:44he put in so build up into the shit my cheese build into those layers no oh gosh dad i
11:53think
11:53your sandwich has exploded jeez so you get me distracted careful with that on the marble mum's
11:59gonna kill you well let's forget the uh the aesthetics here right i can guarantee that the
12:06cheese has melted the thought of you know maybe being able to be a part of the business one day
12:12and
12:12it's incredibly exciting to me but it's incredibly daunting you must be getting very excited with
12:19bishop's gate i am getting very excited but i'm a couple of intense few days coming up and uh yeah
12:26some stuff i'm not fucking happy with you'd be a bit concerned if everything was going swimmingly right
12:30yeah no you're right
12:38so officially today is my last day
12:42how's it looking so yeah i mean i mean look at it looks looks brilliant looks absolutely wonderful
12:49and you got the views across there that's what i'll miss the shard tower london tower bridge
12:58really does look nice this place does uh hopefully the staff and gordon will enjoy the uh the restaurant
13:06that we've built for them i think it looks amazing it really does
13:15yeah it's the biggest product i've ever done
13:19they're very suspensive i mean a bottle of whiskey up there it's 26 000 pound two thousand pound a shot
13:26we were still working here when they were they were laying this out and when that went up there i
13:31was
13:31i was thinking i have somebody that knocked that off oh god
13:37happy with my store we all like my restaurant
13:39yeah
13:40yeah
13:43yeah
13:43yeah
13:49terry he's a guy that is someone that gives you his word and he'll run to the end of the
13:57world for you
13:59very proud hard work very proud dad some people you meet in life you see money first before dedication
14:09with terry it's purely dedication and now it's all done i'm grateful he's delivered
14:16yeah it's been uh it's been a privilege to work on this but all good things come to an end
14:25and at the end of the day yeah i'm 60 this year so i feel shouldn't it be time to
14:31pack up and move on
14:33but uh end of an era really hand over the reins to somebody else and then uh start my new
14:40project so
14:45see you big 22
14:49love that guy an absolute fucking genius
15:03we're days old but the buzz is just incredible
15:07so i need six rice right now please yeah
15:10yes sir
15:11we've got off to a cracking start it's been freaking amazing
15:15okay next up we're gonna go crab and then i need a salmon
15:19yes sir
15:22i think there's over 350 articles
15:29some are good
15:30some are fair
15:32some are snipey
15:35positioning the restaurant as the sort of the latest
15:37mile high club
15:41you know great view show about the food and that shit kills me that pains me because that's so
15:47wrong that's so not true i take it personally it does hurt it really digs deep and it's sort of
15:56yeah it's it's fucking eight days old for god's sake we've just given birth to it
16:03where's the cracks
16:05uh i think we talked about downstairs with reception particularly coming to the top of the escalator
16:10so reception that's been tough
16:12reservations how's that gone
16:13so rgr high is fully booked for three months
16:16well we are pretty much fully booked at lucky cap for the next six weeks
16:21the bank will love the fact that we're fully booked
16:23but i think 65 of new restaurants close in the first 18 months of trading and i'm playing with a
16:3220 million
16:33pound outfit that i can't afford one ounce of collapse one ounce of failure to survive
16:42it's very simple we need the customers to come in fill the place and then repeat that custom come back
16:49again i just went to the bathroom there's like all the glue on the top of the bathroom
16:53in one of the mirrors people stealing the cats ripping them off we had uh we had three go on
16:59just
17:00saturday night i believe just taking them in their bags yeah why did you steal a cat with the
17:06little ones as well you know we lost 320 last week what so 10 of our guests last week took
17:12one of
17:12these with them as a memento of their first week thieving bastards 320 little cats left the building
17:1922 bishop's gates needs to be making 500 000 pounds a week that's an annual turnover of 25
17:28million and i'm saddled with a 20-year lease yeah
17:35i'll be in my mid to late 70s that's a lot of walk action we have to create something incredibly
17:42special to keep alive for 20 years without a doubt i mean seriously
17:55no no little tags on them to stop them from being stolen
17:59they cost a lot of money a lot of money
18:01but i don't mind
18:25Do you know who Gordon is?
18:28He's Daddy's boss.
18:30He's Daddy's boss.
18:31Oh, good boy, yeah.
18:33That's good.
18:35No, Gordon's definitely not Daddy's wild friend.
18:39Is he scary?
18:40Is he scary? No, he's not scary.
18:43I thought he would because he looked like a big guy.
18:46He is a big guy, yeah.
18:49Yeah, I know. Right, I'm going.
18:52See you later.
18:53See you later.
18:54I just have to colour it in.
18:56Right, see you later.
18:58Bye.
19:07Today's the big day.
19:09I haven't really been home very much
19:11in the last two to three months.
19:15Would I like to see
19:17Lucy and the kids more?
19:19Yeah, of course, but
19:20do you sacrifice a lot to make it work?
19:24Like, it's not an easy decision, but
19:26at the same time, you know, this is
19:29this is huge.
19:30This is a massive, massive, massive thing.
19:35So,
19:37hopefully, you know, everything will be successful,
19:40and it will be...
19:44worth it, in a way.
19:55Everything that we've done
19:56up to now is literally
19:58all only about today.
20:02all this practising, like, it could be the best,
20:05but if today isn't the best,
20:08it's all pointless.
20:16There's been so much work that's gone into this project,
20:19but the official thought,
20:23that's when we do bang the drum.
20:25And then it's...
20:27it's game on.
20:29Then you're under the microscope.
20:31Then you get the naysayers.
20:34Then you'll get the critics.
20:35Then you'll get the onslaughts.
20:37And then...
20:38then it all starts to happen.
20:49Good morning.
20:51Fantastic, you.
20:54You're very calm for me, haven't you?
20:56I'm very calm in general.
20:58Uh...
20:59I always, you know...
21:00I keep calm and, uh...
21:02leave the stress to the others.
21:05All right, so we're ready for the launch.
21:07Um, 350 people, uh, looking to be here.
21:10But when enough people start to arrive,
21:13food needs to start going out, okay?
21:15Obviously that's a lot of food coming from a lot of places,
21:18but it needs to be smooth and fast.
21:20Okay, guys.
21:20Let's go.
21:28When you get to this stage of an official press launch,
21:33and you open those doors and those floodgates...
21:37Fill up.
21:38Um...
21:40There needs to be the wow factor.
21:42I've done over a hundred launches in my life,
21:45um, but this...
21:46is by far the biggest.
21:50It's the one with the biggest risk.
21:53So we need to create something...
21:56unique.
21:57Because once that's done,
21:58that train's left the station.
22:00You don't relaunch.
22:01You don't change and reconceptualize.
22:04You are live.
22:05Uh, and it's for the great and the good to witness.
22:20Excited. So excited.
22:21And all the press is starting to go up now as well.
22:24So it's all, you know, very real.
22:27So everything has to be right.
22:31You know, it's not about just getting through.
22:33So we need to polish that performance ahead of this launch.
22:37Now we've got to look almost like swans gliding across that beautiful Bishop's Gate floor.
22:43And then underneath, peddling like fuck.
22:45Food is going to go quick.
22:46And we need to be keeping that constant cycle going, okay?
22:51Michael has the biggest night of his career coming up.
22:54He's young.
22:55He's hungry.
22:57He's capable.
22:58He's gone from this underdog into someone that has absolutely deserved and warrants his position.
23:09But the pressure of him now, with that spotlight on him, is going to be the real true test.
23:19The tuna's going to come out of here.
23:25Oh, look.
23:26You can do it now, mate.
23:27Look at that.
23:28It's the big tuna.
23:29120 kilos.
23:31Are we taking the whole box or just the fish?
23:32I think we should take the whole box.
23:33You have to.
23:34Yeah, yeah, yeah.
23:34We have to take the whole box.
23:36I was just doing a bit of archaeology.
23:40We've got, like, 300 people coming in tonight.
23:43The bluefin tuna's just arrived.
23:45This is obviously for breaking down in front of guests and more for, like, a showpiece.
23:50Watch your table.
23:52Watch your polls.
23:55One, four, three.
23:58This needs to work for him big time because he has a status now.
24:03He's going to be more exposed now, you know, critic-wise, chef-wise, in the industry.
24:11Oh, shit, shit, shit.
24:13Right, hold on.
24:13Rest on the box.
24:14Rest on the box.
24:15We're going to go straight up onto the bar, yeah?
24:17Come on.
24:17OK, three.
24:19I'm going to go down.
24:23Push.
24:25Yes!
24:39Ah, thank you.
24:40Appreciate it.
24:40How are you?
24:41Good, how are you?
24:41All good, thanks.
24:42Thank you, sir.
24:44Final checks.
24:45Yep.
24:46And it's just going to take you through the flow this evening.
24:49At least it's not cloudy.
24:50The sun is out, which is fantastic.
24:52You cannot buy success.
24:55How'd you get it?
24:56You work for it.
24:57You get off your ass, and you work for it.
25:00Get this launch right, and we would have put 22 Bishopsgate on the map.
25:08Why is this door so marked as fucking badly?
25:11What are they doing here?
25:11They're ruining it.
25:12In a week's time, it's going to be chipped to fuck.
25:15Yeah, yeah.
25:15And this is the entrance to RGR High, right?
25:17So in a month's time, that door's going to be like the back of Millwall football tension.
25:21No, no, no.
25:22It's not good enough.
25:23Yes.
25:24It's brand new, for God's sake.
25:26The execution of this launch is massive.
25:29How do we smash 10 glasses?
25:31Yes.
25:3110 glasses?
25:3310 glasses.
25:3310.
25:34How do we smash 10 glasses?
25:3610 glasses.
25:37You're smashing more glass than the Shard.
25:39It lies in the responsibility of the team to make an impact when those doors open.
25:44Very important evening, okay, is the launch party, okay?
25:49It has to be perfect.
25:51Guest experience, top notch.
25:54This is not a rehearsal.
25:56This is it.
25:57Bye, guys.
25:58See you later.
25:59And so every member of that team has to have their fingers on the button.
26:08Oh, shit.
26:09No time.
26:09What have you done?
26:11Sorry.
26:16Yeah, sorry.
26:17I'm so sorry.
26:18I, I, I, I pressed the button on the lift.
26:20I realised there's no button needed.
26:23It's a button.
26:23No, no, no, no.
26:24The lift will come up automatically.
26:25I need to press the button.
26:26Okay, sorry.
26:27Mario, why don't you tell me that?
26:29It's not fucking hell.
26:30Oh, my God.
26:33Lift going down.
26:55We're doing the last final touches and just sort of getting, uh, getting ready to go now.
27:00So, almost time.
27:06Obviously, when guests arrive, they will be welcomed with champagne.
27:10What time's the food going out?
27:12Probably ready at eight and we'll start cooking the hot at eight.
27:15Just make sure this food's out and it's flowing.
27:17Yeah.
27:18We, we've got lots of VIPs here.
27:21There's a lot of press here tonight as well.
27:23So, smile, eye contact, please.
27:25This is an event, yeah?
27:27This is a big launch party and, you know, you should be very, very proud of, uh, of what
27:31you've done to get here, but also to bring this restaurant here as well.
27:34So, relax, flow, enjoy, and a round of applause for Michael.
27:40Yes.
27:50Is it there, T?
27:51Yes, it is.
27:54We're going to town on this launch.
27:56We've got to.
27:58So, we're spending in excess of a hundred grand.
28:03Hello.
28:04Hi, darling.
28:04You're gorgeous.
28:05How are you?
28:06You look amazing.
28:07We've got everybody and the world, um, watching us.
28:12Amazing.
28:13Let's go.
28:14This launch, for all of us, signifies the beginning of this incredible journey.
28:19And the eyes of the world are on you.
28:22And what they see will determine the future success of that business.
28:27People are starting to just arrive now, so very excited, yeah.
28:41Time to put this thing on the map.
28:43I just want to get it done now.
28:44I just want to get it done.
28:46Get the word out there.
28:52It's quite an evening, isn't it?
28:53It feels very special.
28:55Got a lovely message from Adam.
28:56He didn't say, sorry, can't make it.
28:58I know.
28:58He wishes to be here.
28:59Listen.
29:01I can't believe it's my first time.
29:03Oh, could you not get a table?
29:05Yeah, it's pretty bad.
29:06It's unfortunate.
29:07I've got contacts, if you haven't.
29:12Well, I'm glad it's a clear night, so the views...
29:15I know.
29:16...inside the rushing room are spectacular.
29:18It's a perfect night.
29:20How are those lucky cats?
29:22Are there any left?
29:23They're all fucking gone.
29:24I have a few.
29:24I will have a few in my bag by the end of the night.
29:26You do not need to steal from your father.
29:28I think you encourage one or two people to take the big ones, Holly Ramsey.
29:32Also, we have a wedding to pay for.
29:33Yes.
29:34Every cat you steal will be deducted from your menu.
29:40OK, here we go.
29:42We've got to be on it as a unit.
29:45If I'm not going to somehow try and stay together.
29:48Good luck, guys.
29:48Here's Mario.
29:49Good luck.
29:50Good luck.
29:52We don't turn up, you know, until the party's in full swing.
29:56Hey.
29:57Good evening.
29:58How are you?
29:58Let's go.
29:59Yeah, how is everybody?
30:00Yeah, 230 people already in.
30:02Guests already?
30:03230.
30:03Guests already in.
30:04Why so many?
30:05Why?
30:06Because we invited them.
30:08Good to see you guys.
30:09Congratulations.
30:09Thank you, sir.
30:11Then there's the media.
30:13One, one wrong word somewhere and it can come crashing down.
30:19I match the carpet.
30:20You do match the carpet.
30:24Everybody is on us.
30:26How are you?
30:27Nice to see you.
30:29Come in, guys.
30:31Lovely.
30:33Lovely, lovely, lovely.
30:34And the lights are nice and dim as well.
30:35Thank you, sir.
30:36Finally.
30:42Let's push.
30:46So, he's marching off again.
30:48You are.
30:50I have to thank you.
30:52I have to thank you.
30:53I have to thank you.
30:54We are working the room.
30:57Smartly.
30:58Entertaining.
31:00Let's go.
31:00Let's go.
31:01We're trying to give everybody, you know, the respect they deserve.
31:13The food.
31:15The food.
31:15The food.
31:16The food.
31:16The food is off the charts.
31:20But you're the host and you cannot touch it.
31:23It's like you're forbidden.
31:26Good evening.
31:27How is everything?
31:28Everything is perfect.
31:29Good.
31:30So, yeah.
31:31I do find it quite nerve-wracking.
31:33Because when it kicks off, it gets a bit crazy.
31:38Tala is a little anxious.
31:40And I swear to God, I am on my tiptoes.
31:43Welcome.
31:45Thank you very much for coming.
31:46When we go to launches together, it's important to support Gordon.
31:50Well going.
31:51Very well.
31:51How are you?
31:52I don't want him having to do it on his own.
31:54He doesn't want to be on his own.
31:57Let's put him to a quick hello in the kitchen very quickly.
31:59Yes, of course.
32:01Michael, get your ass in here.
32:03Come on down here.
32:04Jesus Christ.
32:07Amazing.
32:08Thank you guys.
32:08Good job.
32:10You see all these people having a great time.
32:13It's our responsibility to promote that and make sure that they leave there having had amazing cocktails, amazing food, said
32:21hello.
32:22And if we feel we've done that, that's really exciting.
32:26Chocolate is from Vancouver.
32:28Thank you for the truth.
32:29From town and I have some chocolate from Vancouver.
32:32Good job.
32:33It was lovely.
32:34Thank you so much for me.
32:35I will never forget it.
32:37Thanks.
32:37Love you.
32:42You started it.
32:44Yeah, I love you.
32:44Merci.
32:45Enjoy tonight.
32:46Relax and enjoy yourself.
32:48I will win.
32:49What point are you still trying to prove after all these years?
32:53I just want to fucking please.
32:54And so that's part of me that hasn't died down.
32:59Constantly wanting to please.
33:01I got embarrassed with school reports from Stratford High being sent home and it was C minus D, E.
33:12And so you feel bad about letting your parents down and now today I feel happy that I've made my
33:23mum happy.
33:23Of course, deep down inside I would love it from a dad to have tasted something and even said, yeah,
33:32good job.
33:34I would love him to have understood even though he didn't back what I was doing or believed in where
33:41it was going.
33:42You want validation from your parents.
33:45But I'll come back to the values that I stand for and the most important family ever is the family
33:52you build.
33:57Ladies and gentlemen, welcome all around the stage.
34:03Thank you so much, Mario.
34:04Ladies and gentlemen, good evening and welcome to a historic, monumental evening.
34:10I'd like to take this moment to say an incredible thank you to one of the most outstanding teams we've
34:16ever had.
34:17And it's never easy putting something of this magnitude together in such a short period of time
34:23and then opening up with the pressure that we had fully put from day one.
34:26It's a testament to all your strengths and commitment.
34:30Tonight marks the celebration of 22 Bishopsgate.
34:34Tomorrow we know the real work starts.
34:36And from the bottom of my heart, from Tana and all around the family, thank you for everything you've done.
34:41It shows. Enjoy tonight. God bless. Thank you.
34:45Music please. Music please.
34:55I stood there and I'm just looking around.
35:00And the perception for them is just this mega party.
35:03And they have no idea just what has gone into getting this ready.
35:11There was nothing in there and just what's come together over the last nine months is nothing short of a
35:19miracle.
35:20And Michael, yeah, everything I said a year ago about the strength of his shoulders, the kid is just incredible.
35:29Every nut, every bolt, every piece of wood, every piece of joint came up in a fucking lift to build
35:34this place.
35:35All the hours, all the training, and then just to see how beautiful it's turned out to be.
35:44It is rewarding. It is really rewarding.
35:47Yeah.
35:52Good job, Mario.
35:53Thank you, sir.
35:54No, no, seriously.
35:55I thought I was going to hand the speech over to you there for a moment.
35:57I thought you were going to say a few words.
36:01OK.
36:02Don't command the cult.
36:03OK, yeah.
36:04Talk in the morning.
36:06Wow.
36:06Well done.
36:07We did it.
36:07We did it.
36:08Well done.
36:09So proud of you.
36:10Couldn't have done it without you.
36:11Thank you, Holt.
36:12The team did so well.
36:15And they should feel incredibly proud of themselves.
36:22Makes you feel quite emotional, doesn't it?
36:24It is.
36:26It's a big team.
36:27Are you happy?
36:29Yeah.
36:30I mean, I just, you know, I hate leaving it.
36:31I think that's, that's a sign of something that I'm happy with.
36:38Isn't London beautiful?
36:39You see all those bridges lit up like that?
36:43Look at it there, and there's Bishop's Gate.
36:45Look at it.
36:47No, but look.
36:48I know, but look.
36:50That's crazy.
36:52What a beautiful beast.
36:55That is extraordinary.
36:57It's funny.
36:57It's funny because I look at that now.
36:58I want to go back.
36:59Yes.
37:04Are you in the street well tonight?
37:06Yeah.
37:08Finally.
37:14We get back and we just want a sip.
37:16We'll do a dinner, beans on toast with a fried egg.
37:21And it's just that moment with Heinz baked fucking beans,
37:27Warburton's bread, Marmite Worcester sauce, a bottle of red.
37:32We'll get a really nice cheddar cheese and we'll grate it all over that fried egg.
37:37And I'll sit there and it's like, fuck, we've done it, mate.
37:41And no one else can see that.
37:44I think I might possibly have uttered the words, I'm glad you did it.
37:51I didn't hear that, but it's just being louder.
37:55I'm glad you did it.
37:56Oh, jeez.
38:00Rachel.
38:05Hi, darling.
38:06Hey, how are you?
38:07Yeah, all good indeed, thank you.
38:08How are you?
38:09Good, good, good.
38:10Yeah, really good.
38:10Well done.
38:11Everyone's absolutely buzzing.
38:13It was a great evening, so I think you did brilliantly.
38:16I'll give you the night off now, if you like.
38:18Yeah, I'd like the night off.
38:19It's nearing 11 o'clock and I'll lie in tomorrow.
38:23Yeah, you've got a couple of appointments first thing in the morning tomorrow,
38:26a bit of time to catch your breath, and then you're back at it.
38:2912.10, you'll be flying to Washington DC.
38:36OK, darling, thank you.
38:37Bye-bye.
38:40Yeah.
38:47I love the jeopardy of challenges.
38:52Tana, maybe not so much.
38:56Let me just recover from this one a little bit.
39:00Serious?
39:02Really?
39:03Do I have a choice?
39:05What have you got up your sleeve?
39:10There is something in New York that's just come on the radar.
39:15You love New York, right?
39:17We love New York.
39:18Yeah, but that doesn't mean...
39:18There's a special place for us when we went there on New Year's Eve.
39:22Come on.
