00:00Oh, that's my agent over there fuming.
00:02My kids wish I was an accountant or a baker.
00:05Oh yeah, I'm a dirty dub.
00:06No, no, no, no, no way.
00:09Oh, everyone wants to see my nuggets.
00:12It's pretty swanky.
00:13I'm all penis.
00:14Do you still like each other?
00:15No.
00:17It's like, oh, oh, oh.
00:19No like it.
00:20No like it.
00:21And it's here on the banks of the Thames.
00:24Get ahead.
00:25What is it?
00:25Get ahead.
00:26Ficky chicken and a garlic cow.
00:28What about the new Harry Potter stuff?
00:29Are you excited about seeing that on TV?
00:30Just met Draco.
00:31Just met the little boy.
00:32Not little boy.
00:33The young man plays Draco.
00:34And that was a strange feeling.
00:35Meeting him and having a little hug and a photograph with him.
00:37It's the new generation that gets to enjoy this all over again.
00:40Look, the stories are really Joe's stories from the books.
00:43And so the fact that it's a television series, it was filmed,
00:45really it's just bringing that world to people.
00:47And I've met so many people over the decades now
00:49for whom it's been a massive part of their lives.
00:51They have weddings themed all their whole house.
00:53Their whole life, frankly, is themed around Harry Potter houses or characters.
00:56And it's a privilege being part of something so positive
00:59because there's quite a lot of negative stuff going on in the world at the moment,
01:01you may have noticed.
01:02You must be very cool in your family though.
01:04You've been in some pretty cool things.
01:06The very opposite.
01:06The last thing you ever want as a young person is that people want to talk to you
01:11because your dad is in Harry Potter films.
01:13My kids wish I was an accountant or a baker.
01:15If you can reboot anything and put yourself in it, what are you going to do?
01:18Oh, reboot some of it?
01:21Oh, what would you do?
01:23My God.
01:23What did you love?
01:24Oh, you sort of, God, Biker Grove.
01:26I'd need to work on my accent now.
01:28Well, it's coming back.
01:29Have a way over that in debt.
01:30They're producing it.
01:30They're directing it.
01:32That's my agent over there.
01:33I'm fuming.
01:34Can't believe I'm not in it.
01:36If something in your bag helps you through being a mum.
01:39Chicken nuggets?
01:40Yeah.
01:40Show us your nuggets, love.
01:42Oh, everyone wants to see my nuggets.
01:45You've got to have nuggets when you've got your kids as well.
01:48And it doesn't even matter if they're cold.
01:50I know.
01:50What an amazing time to be British.
01:52Let's talk about accents, then.
01:54What do you get frightened about accent-wise?
01:57If you were asked to do one, what would you be scared about doing?
02:00Geordie, I think, is the number one.
02:02She is the most Geordie ever.
02:05It's an amazing accent and it's really muscular and really hard.
02:08Do you want me to try one?
02:09No, no, no, no, no way.
02:12Yeah, definitely not that.
02:14And we film industry in Cardiff and I think the Welsh accent is very tricky.
02:18Well, you know you're an amazing actress because I did not know that you had the accent that you have
02:21in real life.
02:22Oh, yeah, I'm a dirty dub.
02:23I'm a dirty dub.
02:25Is there anything that you'd like to be in that you could put yourself in, reboot or anything?
02:29A reboot?
02:30Oh.
02:31Do you know what I loved?
02:32I don't know if you remember.
02:33Do you remember Cracker?
02:34Oh, do I remember Cracker?
02:36Robbie Couture.
02:38Have you got a Seth Rogen impression of his laugh for me?
02:43It's honestly very hard to do.
02:46Come on.
02:47It's like, oh.
02:49I can't.
02:51There's one person in the world who can do it really well and it's David Krumholz, but it's like, oh,
02:56oh, oh.
02:59It's difficult.
03:00It's very difficult.
03:01I love teaching Seth British slang.
03:04It's very funny.
03:05I asked him about snogging and he thought that was full-blown sex and it's just a kiss.
03:10Snogging's having sex.
03:11No, snogging is a little peck.
03:13What's shagging?
03:15Shagging.
03:15You thought he meant shagging?
03:17Yes.
03:18Yeah, yeah, yeah.
03:18And in regards to who you're nervous about seeing, anyone famous that you just think you'd fall apart in front
03:23of?
03:24Do you know what?
03:25I probably would say if I saw Stephen Graham, I probably would just be like, so starstruck, I think.
03:33Yeah.
03:34Have you got a Scouse accent for me?
03:36Oh, gosh, no.
03:37You don't.
03:38You do not.
03:39You don't.
03:39I can't.
03:40What, a Scouse?
03:41How does it go?
03:43A poke and some sticky chicken.
03:44I don't know.
03:45Jen Ahad.
03:46What is it?
03:46Jen Ahad.
03:47You've got Gerard and Stevie G.
03:49Do you want a hen?
03:50I've had two accents.
03:52She's a great Welsh.
03:53I'm half Welsh.
03:55Gavin and Stacey.
03:57Oh, Gavin and Stacey, I love it.
03:59My family from Wales is gorgeous.
04:00It's amazing.
04:01That is really good.
04:02I know, my family are from Wales, so I know what I'm talking about.
04:06I know, yeah, I know, yeah.
04:07Do it.
04:08Do it.
04:08I know, yeah.
04:10Oh, I can't.
04:13You're the actor here, love.
04:14I can't.
04:14A sticky chicken.
04:15A sticky chicken.
04:18Sticky chicken and a can of cake.
04:21Yeah.
04:22On that note.
04:22Are you any good at Scouse accent?
04:24Stephen Graham here tonight, being nominated for a lot of things.
04:27How's your Scouse?
04:28The only one I can do is basically nick from Harry Enfield, which is,
04:32Harry, Harry, calm down.
04:35What about a Sir David Attenborough impression?
04:37And it's here on the banks of the Thames that the two...
04:41That's quite good.
04:42Yeah, yeah.
04:43Congratulations.
04:44What the hell are you thinking, guys?
04:45Number four.
04:46I mean, are you all right?
04:47We used to look at people who would, like, go to school with, you know, multiple buggies
04:53and four kids.
04:56Yeah, just with an array of kids in the front and a couple of dogs, maybe.
05:00And we'd go, their life must be just horrendous.
05:03And that's us now.
05:03Yeah, yeah, yeah.
05:04But it's actually really nice.
05:05We get where they're coming from.
05:06We're old enough, though.
05:07Like, our youngest is going to be four.
05:09And they're like, jeez, you can't wait to look after babies.
05:12So I'm like, oh my god.
05:13You've already taken the best names.
05:14So what other, you've taken them all?
05:15Oh, it's a really cool name.
05:17We've got a special one coming out.
05:18It's a boy or girl's name.
05:19Well, we've got one for both.
05:21Wow.
05:22I know.
05:23It's pretty, it's pretty, it's, mark my words, though.
05:26It's pretty swanky.
05:28Is it?
05:28Oh, yeah, it is.
05:29It's a real, it's a real, like, it's a real, like, can we pull this off?
05:33We are.
05:34We've got too much pressure for the kid, but we just like it.
05:36We like it.
05:37We keep going.
05:38Yeah, yeah.
05:39If you see one thing come back that you both love, what do you reckon it'll be?
05:41Oh, my gosh.
05:42Take Me Out.
05:43Take Me Out with Paddy McGuinness.
05:45Oh, my goodness.
05:46No like it.
05:47No like it.
05:48Loved it.
05:49I feel like that was Love Island before Love Island.
05:51That is so good.
05:51Let's get it back.
05:52I don't want to see you two presenting it or something.
05:54Traitor.
05:56Look at you two being really nicey.
05:58He could talk for Ireland and he's not even...
06:00We still like each other.
06:00No.
06:03I love him.
06:04I love him.
06:05Are you proud that you got on that journey together?
06:07Yeah.
06:07Do you know what?
06:09I really couldn't have hoped for a better...
06:11I'm not just saying this.
06:12I could not have hoped for a better person to be on that journey with.
06:16I was a hapless mess for most of the journey and Rachel was the rock next to me.
06:22Like kind of make me pull my socks up and make sure that you know I could...
06:26But were you a little bit worried that she might turn on you?
06:28Well of course I was.
06:29He was.
06:30But that's the game.
06:31I was never of that.
06:31But I almost turned on her at the end as well out of spite.
06:35I thought if she's going to turn on me I'm going to turn on her.
06:37But I think that's the hardest thing about it is you do not know who to trust.
06:42No you don't.
06:42Like we'd only met a couple of weeks before.
06:44Exactly.
06:44We don't know each other.
06:45We love each other now.
06:46We know each other now.
06:47We have the same values.
06:48Like you know lovely friendship.
06:50You changed the whole game.
06:52And you actually instilled faith in our whole humanity didn't you really?
06:57Do you know the thing I'm most proud of is the lasting message of that series.
07:03That for me is the thing I could not have wished for a better ending.
07:07Is that if you trust each other and play with integrity and heart and stay to your word
07:12then good things can happen and good guys don't always finish last.
07:16And everyone's falling in love with you on the TV.
07:18Can you believe just how big Traitors was?
07:20No.
07:21I think that's the beauty of it.
07:22When we all decided to do it we all just loved the show.
07:26We love it so much.
07:27So when we finished filming we were just like I wonder how this is going to do.
07:30But we were like either or it was the best fun we had.
07:33And then to see how much we could receive to it we were just like.
07:36And yeah the BBC now basically go well who wants to do it?
07:39Have you seen the names?
07:40It's unreal.
07:41Who are you excited about seeing on TV?
07:43Maya General.
07:44I'm really excited to see her because obviously we know her as a host.
07:47But it's going to be interesting to see her in a game scenario like that.
07:51It's going to be interesting to see Miranda Hart as well.
07:53I think that's going to be hilarious.
07:54And Geri Hall.
07:55I mean she's an absolute icon.
07:56Yeah.
07:57Ramesh.
07:57I think it's just going to be hilarious.
