00:00Hello!
00:02Hello!
00:03Hi!
00:04Nice to see you.
00:05Nice to see you, darling.
00:07You're doing a screening for the NHS, aren't you?
00:10A drive-in cinema for the NHS to say thank you at Palace of Holyrood.
00:14I mean, the NHS, oh my goodness.
00:17What an extraordinary testament, really, to the creation of the NHS.
00:24I mean, we're so lucky to have that.
00:25Speaking to lots of them during lockdown and at various points of this last year,
00:32some of them who had COVID themselves,
00:35they then felt bad that they were letting their teammates down and they weren't there.
00:39It's an amazing work ethic and they just went above and beyond, really.
00:43And still do, obviously.
00:46And that's why I suppose we wanted to thank them in this way
00:50and celebrate some of the work that they're doing.
00:53It was quite nice to put Cruella on, I think, a few days before actually it premieres.
00:58Is that right? I think it premieres end of May, isn't it?
00:59It opens here on Friday.
01:01It's the origin story of Cruella de Vil.
01:04So, you know, how did she become this monster?
01:07And then Emma is kind of a...
01:08Well, you're a very complicated person too.
01:15Oh, in life. As a character, she's great. Simple.
01:17It's great.
01:19So wait, wait till you see the clothes.
01:24It's unbelievable.
01:25You're going to want all of Emily's clothes.
01:28They're so amazing.
01:30Obviously, you won't be able to wear them in public.
01:33But they're so brilliant.
01:36Jenny Bevan, who designed them all, won an Oscar for Mad Max a couple of years back.
01:40So we're very lucky.
01:41And was it a fun film to film?
01:44It was so much fun.
01:45We were all over.
01:45We were all over London.
01:47We were in front of Liberty.
01:48They transformed, what is it?
01:50Carnaby Street into 70s London, which was amazing.
01:54And then we were in front of Buckingham Palace at one point.
01:58I was riding a motorcycle around the mall.
02:02We should have had you stopped, Emma.
02:03It's very dangerous.
02:04I know.
02:04I know.
02:06I really got away with it.
02:08It was incredible.
02:09On my motorcycle, a car trailing me around Buckingham Palace.
02:14In a crazy outfit.
02:16In a crazy outfit.
02:18Makeup just seared to my face, black and white hair.
02:20It was insane.
02:21Of course, you see, I was alive in the 70s.
02:24So I kept looking at all the frocks and thinking, I think that's mine.
02:29I'm sure I've worn that.
02:33You know, you won't remember because you're all too young.
02:36One day when we were shooting, there was a demonstration on in London.
02:42And our car couldn't get to where we were shooting.
02:46We were shooting in Covent Garden.
02:47And I said, we've got to get out.
02:49We've got to go by tube.
02:51And I was in a wig this high.
02:54And makeup, I mean, huge makeup.
02:57You'll see, like my eyelashes.
02:58I look like a llama.
02:59And we got on the tube to go to Covent Garden.
03:03And I swear to God, I thought it's going to be fine.
03:06It's only Sunday morning.
03:07It's nine o'clock Sunday morning.
03:09There won't be anyone.
03:10It was rammed.
03:12Rammed.
03:12And no one took the slightest bit of notice.
03:16They all clearly thought I was a drag act on the way home.
03:20Did you make it on time?
03:22I did.
03:22We did in the end.
03:24And I didn't.
03:24Because I stayed in the car.
03:26I was like completely loaded into the car.
03:29And I was like, I'm not going on the tube.
03:30I was going.
03:30You couldn't have done.
03:31Because you're trying to do it.
03:33I'm not doing it.
03:33I'm not doing it.
03:33I'm sitting here for an hour.
03:36And hugging.
03:37Can we just talk about hugging?
03:39I got propositions by a 96 year old lady called Betty yesterday who wanted to kiss me.
03:45She's in a care home with her daughter.
03:47And I said, Betty, if I do that, I'm going to get slapped on the back of her head for
03:50being inappropriate social distancing.
03:52And she said, I'll have you afterwards then.
03:56She was a right character.
03:58I also got asked yesterday in a care home.
04:00This is what happens when I'm not around.
04:02Yes, exactly.
04:04She wouldn't think I've got a window.
04:06She saw her way in.
04:09Listen, we've got to let you guys go.
04:10Yeah.
04:11But thank you so much for sort of, well, talking to us for starters, but also for letting us show
04:16the film.
04:16They're going to love it on Wednesday.
04:18And there's been a real buzz about it.
04:19So it'll be exciting that we're getting to watch it two days before it comes out in the UK.
04:22So thank you.
04:23Thank you both so much.
04:25Thank you so, so much.
04:27It's so nice to see you.
04:29Bye.
04:29See you with you.
04:31Bye.
04:31Goodbye, darling.
04:32Bye bye.
04:33Lots of love.
04:34Bye.
04:34Bye bye bye.
04:34Bye bye bye bye.
04:34Bye bye bye bye bye.
04:34Bye bye bye bye.
