00:00Rob was interested there because Rob will see your personal assistant and raise you.
00:04I'll give you an agent. I was a radio presenter in Wales and a TV presenter in Wales.
00:10And I would get asked to go and do things. And I didn't really have an agent at that time.
00:15So I invented a guy called Richard Knight.
00:18And he would phone the organisers and I once, I had to go, it was some kind of fundraising evening.
00:26I'm terribly embarrassed and I managed to get a fee for it.
00:30I know.
00:31How are you embarrassed about getting a fee for it?
00:33Well, it was a fundraising. You know, they were all there for the good of their hearts.
00:38I would be on the phone. Is that Mr Knight?
00:41This is Richard Knight here. When did you want Rob for?
00:44Well, we wondered if he could come down on the Saturday the 14th.
00:48Yeah, he'll be there.
00:49No, listen, the guy is an angel, but I wouldn't be doing my job if I didn't ask.
00:54Are we going to see a little bit of Josh for this?
00:57And then I would go to these events and they'd say,
01:00Oh, I spoke to Mr Knight. He's quite a character.
01:04I'd say more than you realise.
