00:01The whole Boris Johnson thing has unnerved me and made me feel very uneasy. It's nothing party
00:09political but I know the man through having met him and interviewed him on a number of occasions
00:15and I wish him the best and speediest recovery and my good wishes to him and all his family now
00:25for what he's going through, for what so many people are going through. The reason I think
00:28it makes us all stop and think is that we think if it could happen to him it could happen
00:33to anyone. This is not supposed to happen to leaders, to Prime Ministers. Yesterday we
00:39were talking about the Queen and how she was taking the country by the hand and today it's
00:46like, hold on a minute, this guy's supposed to be in charge. If he's not running the place
00:49who is running the place? It's unnerving and it just makes us all think how vulnerable we
00:57are and how this awful virus can do its worst anytime, anywhere to anybody. So the first
01:05thing I did was get off my backside and realise I'd only done 1,500 steps today and I upped
01:11that to four and a half thousand. But it's hard going, it's hard going. Take my wife though,
01:19take my wife. Very stressed, very anxious and she spends all day with a routine where she
01:27cleans and she walks the dog and she cooks and she does absolutely everything. I could
01:32not sing her praises more highly. I am puny, I am worthless compared to her, absolutely.
01:38I do different things, things I don't get credit for but I do different things. And she clocks
01:45up 15,000 steps a day. 15,000 steps a day with all the things that she does. So what
01:50did I do? I said to myself, right, I've got to get my mind together, I've got to feel as
01:55if I've done something today. So what did I do? Right, yesterday I picked all this up and
02:03this is pharmaceutical rubbish from my bedroom, honestly. It's incredible. What's this? Cold
02:10sore cream from 2011. Mouthwash out of date as well. There's a lot of stuff, you'll find
02:18out in your bathroom, there's a lot of stuff that you buy when you're on holiday and you
02:22bring home. But then you realise the holiday was in 2007. And cosmetics, all sorts of things.
02:29And he said, well I paid a lot of money for that, then should I really be throwing it
02:33out? Soap, that I've never used. What else is in here? Oh there's some, yeah, there's
02:39lots of things for upset tummies. I noticed that much as well. Shampoos. Now here's an
02:44interesting thing. Facial flex. A facial exerciser. Obviously I have not used it. It's still in
02:54there. But look, here's my point. Here's my point. I feel better. I feel better. That
02:59is just one cupboard in our bathroom. And if I multiply that and replicate that around
03:06the house, it's a cleansing. And the bathroom will be leaner. It will be meaner. It will look
03:13the way it's supposed to in brochures of bathrooms. And it's a way of saying, keep on keeping on,
03:22folks. Keep on making yourself feel better. Achieve something during this awful time. Just
03:28whatever it is, however small, whether it's me with my steps or clearing out my bathroom
03:33cupboards, I hope you find something to do. Something that makes you feel better. Whatever
03:37it is, I have no issue with it. Just be good and stay safe.
