00:12.520 --> 00:15.600
Please welcome to the stage,
Sarah Millican!

00:25.840 --> 00:26.799
Aah!

00:28.279 --> 00:30.080
Thank you so much!

00:30.160 --> 00:31.680
So lovely!

00:31.760 --> 00:33.839
Aah!

00:33.920 --> 00:35.720
Thank you so much! That's so lovely.

00:35.800 --> 00:36.879
How are you? Are you well?

00:36.960 --> 00:40.000
-Yes!
-Give me a cheer if you're upstairs.

00:40.080 --> 00:41.960
-Whoo!
-That's pretty good.

00:42.040 --> 00:44.480
-Downstairs?
-Whoo!

00:44.559 --> 00:46.480
We're all here. Let's get started.

00:46.559 --> 00:48.960
Thank you so much for coming.
I was standing at the side there.

00:49.040 --> 00:53.360
Do you ever get where you can smell gravy
on yourself, but you can't find it?

00:54.559 --> 00:56.599
It's somewhere here. What's also alarming

00:56.680 --> 00:58.760
is I can smell a little bit
of piss as well.

00:59.760 --> 01:02.720
I can only assume
that's my leggings coming through my tits

01:02.800 --> 01:05.200
and quacking out the top,
that's what's happening there.

01:05.280 --> 01:08.880
Apologies to the people in the front row
if this is not what you're expecting.

01:08.960 --> 01:11.680
Maybe it's exactly what you're expecting.

01:11.759 --> 01:14.360
I never understand why people
get tickets for the front row for me.

01:14.440 --> 01:16.320
I know for other people,
it's a really good view,

01:16.399 --> 01:18.800
but for me, it's a terrible fucking angle.

01:19.479 --> 01:21.680
It's all tits and chins.

01:21.759 --> 01:25.119
And now piss as well.
Piss and tits and chins.

01:25.200 --> 01:26.640
You lucky buggers.

01:30.839 --> 01:34.080
You getting a strong whiff of it
all the way back there, are you, flower?

01:34.160 --> 01:37.000
I'm so sorry.
You're right in a direct line.

01:37.080 --> 01:39.479
I'll try not to quack at any point.

01:39.560 --> 01:41.199
I'm so sorry!

01:43.479 --> 01:46.040
My show, as you know,
is called Late Bloomer.

01:46.119 --> 01:48.640
I've always considered myself
to be a late bloomer.

01:48.720 --> 01:50.880
From what you understand
of the term already,

01:50.960 --> 01:54.119
give me a whoo if you think
you're a late bloomer like me.

01:54.199 --> 01:56.839
-Whoo!
-Oh, there's quite a few of you in. Okay.

01:56.920 --> 01:59.720
So I've been trying to work out
what the rest of you are.

02:00.520 --> 02:04.919
The Internet thinks the opposite
of a late bloomer is a child prodigy.

02:05.640 --> 02:08.759
I can see quite a lot of you down here.
I'm gonna say no to that.

02:09.759 --> 02:11.720
I think it's 'cause
they're basing it on education,

02:11.799 --> 02:15.640
when I think it's more to do with
how old you were when you first had sex.

02:15.720 --> 02:19.000
What's that, a sex prodigy?
That doesn't sound right, does it?

02:19.080 --> 02:21.440
Early slut? That's not very nice.

02:22.560 --> 02:24.720
The term I've come up with…
I think you're gonna like it.

02:24.799 --> 02:28.560
To me, if you're not a late bloomer,
you're an eager beaver.

02:28.640 --> 02:31.840
Some of you won't know which one you are.

02:31.920 --> 02:35.000
Luckily, I've made a handy list
to help you decide.

02:35.080 --> 02:37.080
Here we go. "Late bloomer,

02:37.160 --> 02:39.840
sweet 16 and never been kissed."

02:39.920 --> 02:42.040
"Eager beaver, sweet 16

02:42.120 --> 02:44.440
and already been fisted."

02:47.840 --> 02:51.640
There's loads over there!

02:52.200 --> 02:54.440
I was trying to work out
what the cutoff age is,

02:54.519 --> 02:56.200
if it is about when you first had sex.

02:56.280 --> 02:59.040
'Cause some people have sex for
the first time when they're quite young,

02:59.120 --> 03:01.440
and other people wait
and have it when they're a bit older.

03:01.519 --> 03:03.239
Wait? I'm not sure I waited.

03:03.320 --> 03:06.000
Rather just none was available to me

03:06.640 --> 03:09.040
when I was shopping for cock.

03:10.760 --> 03:12.160
"Your basket is empty."

03:18.519 --> 03:21.560
"Late bloomer, had no talents as a child."

03:21.640 --> 03:23.560
When I was a kid,
maybe 10 or 11 years old,

03:23.640 --> 03:26.320
we had a talent assembly at school
where whatever talent you had,

03:26.399 --> 03:28.440
you could perform it in the assembly.

03:28.519 --> 03:31.519
One little girl played the piano
'cause she'd had piano lessons.

03:31.600 --> 03:34.600
I don't know if I can hide
my hatred of her very well.

03:34.679 --> 03:36.080
Another little girl did ballet…

03:36.160 --> 03:38.239
…'cause she'd had ballet lessons.

03:38.760 --> 03:40.359
I hadn't had any of that kind of lesson.

03:40.440 --> 03:42.640
I was determined, though,
to be involved in the assembly.

03:42.720 --> 03:46.000
I told the teacher that my talent
was looking after animals,

03:46.079 --> 03:47.600
which is A, not a talent,

03:47.679 --> 03:49.840
and B, even if it is,
I'm not sure I had it,

03:49.920 --> 03:51.679
'cause they all died.

03:52.359 --> 03:55.760
I don't know how much is my fault. When
you're little, you have little animals.

03:55.840 --> 03:57.359
You have hamsters, budgies, rabbits.

03:57.440 --> 03:58.679
You have things that don't last.

03:58.760 --> 04:01.239
Live sounds better.
Things that don't live very long.

04:01.760 --> 04:05.200
Also you shouldn't keep a hamster
longer than it wants to stay.

04:06.160 --> 04:08.560
That's like the old saying,
"If you love someone…"

04:08.640 --> 04:10.000
"Let them go."

04:10.079 --> 04:12.239
"Bury them in the garden." That's right.

04:14.119 --> 04:16.920
"Eager beaver, however, tap dance from 5,

04:17.000 --> 04:21.039
clarinet at 7, netball team at 12,
disco dancing at 14,

04:21.120 --> 04:23.400
sucking cocks at 16."

04:24.560 --> 04:27.240
There's some at the back clapping already!

04:28.320 --> 04:31.720
"Late bloomer, first kiss very late."

04:31.800 --> 04:33.960
Now, for that, I don't count
hands or posters.

04:34.039 --> 04:37.560
I think your first kiss has to be another
person, generally speaking.

04:37.640 --> 04:40.000
Also, where do kids get their posters
from these days?

04:40.080 --> 04:42.240
There's no Woolworths, there's no Athena.

04:42.320 --> 04:45.440
Are they just kissing their phones?
Is that what they're doing?

04:45.520 --> 04:49.160
I used to spend many an hour on a Saturday
in Woolworths just doing this.

05:00.200 --> 05:03.320
It was like a very early Tinder,
wasn't it?

05:05.240 --> 05:07.840
"Swipe left for Chesney Hawkes."

05:08.640 --> 05:10.560
That's what late bloomers were doing
on Saturdays,

05:10.640 --> 05:14.320
while eager beavers were buying lipsticks
and touching winkies.

05:16.680 --> 05:20.560
Eager beaver, however, kissed everyone
sort of uncomfortably early.

05:20.640 --> 05:23.160
Sometimes I see a group of kids,
group of adults with the kids,

05:23.240 --> 05:25.160
and one adult will point
at one kid and go,

05:25.240 --> 05:28.680
"Eeh, look,
she's got herself a boyfriend!"

05:28.760 --> 05:32.680
And I think, "They're five years old,
you fucking weirdo perverts."

05:32.760 --> 05:35.520
"And it's her cousin.
What the fuck's happening here?"

05:38.680 --> 05:42.000
"Late bloomer,
never accidentally pregnant."

05:45.520 --> 05:47.800
Brace yourselves.

05:47.880 --> 05:49.000
"Eager beaver,

05:49.080 --> 05:50.240
many abortions."

05:50.320 --> 05:51.479
Now…

05:53.160 --> 05:54.960
Such a great reaction!

05:55.039 --> 05:57.280
You did what I call the "move-on laugh."

05:57.359 --> 05:59.039
"Ha ha ha! Ooh, no."

06:01.359 --> 06:03.880
I'm pro-abortion, it's fine.

06:03.960 --> 06:07.560
"Eager beaver, drank in the park,
even on a school night."

06:09.760 --> 06:12.840
"Phwoar!" Good response.

06:12.919 --> 06:15.359
"Late bloomer, drank only at Christmas,

06:15.440 --> 06:18.560
in full view of approving parents."

06:20.120 --> 06:23.599
"Eager beaver, saw New Year's Eve
as an opportunity

06:23.680 --> 06:28.680
to get fingered or a hand job
in a McDonald's toilet."

06:31.599 --> 06:36.400
Should auld acquaintance be forgot

06:36.479 --> 06:38.799
"Ten! Nine!"

06:39.640 --> 06:41.359
"Eight!"

06:41.440 --> 06:42.640
"Seven!"

06:48.799 --> 06:51.599
"Late bloomer, went out on New Year's Eve,

06:51.680 --> 06:53.919
but went home at 11:30 p.m.

06:54.000 --> 06:57.039
to see in the new year
with their parents."

06:57.120 --> 07:01.000
I did that. I was never once fingered
on a New Year's Eve.

07:01.520 --> 07:04.039
Sounds like a country and western song,
doesn't it?

07:05.919 --> 07:08.760
"Eager beaver, experimented with drugs."

07:08.840 --> 07:12.039
"Late bloomer, was on medication."

07:14.000 --> 07:19.200
And finally, "Late bloomer,
first sex toy after first divorce."

07:19.719 --> 07:26.239
"Eager beaver, got a voucher for Lovehoney
off their mam on their 17th birthday."

07:35.479 --> 07:37.680
The inspiration for this show
is a photograph.

07:37.760 --> 07:40.960
You know there were people we really liked
at school that we're still in touch with,

07:41.039 --> 07:45.000
and there were people we really hated at
school that we sort of hope are dead now.

07:45.080 --> 07:46.320
Then there's…

07:46.400 --> 07:47.760
Yes? Yes.

07:47.840 --> 07:50.039
Then the people in between
that we didn't know that well,

07:50.120 --> 07:51.599
but they seemed all right at the time.

07:51.680 --> 07:54.719
One of those girls in that last category
sent me a message on Facebook.

07:54.799 --> 07:58.159
She said, "I've got a photograph you're in
and I wondered if you'd like to see it."

07:58.239 --> 08:01.039
I said, "Yes, please."
She said, "It's from when we were 12."

08:01.120 --> 08:05.159
I'm 49 now, so the idea of seeing
a photograph of myself from so long ago

08:05.239 --> 08:07.719
is, of course, intriguing.
I said, "I'd love to see it."

08:07.799 --> 08:12.280
She said, "It's from when we went skiing
with the school in France."

08:12.799 --> 08:14.799
I've never been skiing.

08:15.599 --> 08:17.760
So now I'm thinking,
"Is it even me in the photograph

08:17.840 --> 08:19.359
or just another kid in glasses?"

08:19.440 --> 08:22.840
I know I've never been skiing 'cause it
involves three of the things I hate most.

08:22.919 --> 08:24.359
The cold, sport,

08:24.440 --> 08:25.679
hospitals.

08:26.200 --> 08:29.479
Actually, France.
Four of the things I hate the most.

08:31.840 --> 08:33.400
The photograph came through. It is me.

08:33.480 --> 08:36.000
I'd love to show you the photograph,
but in order to do that,

08:36.079 --> 08:38.480
I'd have to ask permission
of all the people in the photograph.

08:38.559 --> 08:41.840
And in order to do that, I'd have to talk
to people from school,

08:41.919 --> 08:43.640
and I'm not fucking doing it.

08:48.079 --> 08:50.840
So I'm gonna describe the photograph.
As you're looking at me,

08:50.920 --> 08:53.120
this is the photograph.
Four kids sitting along in a row,

08:53.199 --> 08:55.959
all aged 12 or thereabouts,
all sitting at a table.

08:56.040 --> 08:57.040
We'll start at this end.

08:57.120 --> 09:00.600
The first person on my left, your right,
is the girl who sent me the photograph.

09:00.680 --> 09:03.040
Let's call her Sam. She's called Deborah.

09:03.120 --> 09:04.120
It's fine.

09:11.600 --> 09:13.360
She's got a big smile on her face.

09:13.440 --> 09:17.000
It's a very '80s photograph,
taken in 1987.

09:17.079 --> 09:20.160
Everybody's in, like, crazy earrings,
chunky jumpers.

09:20.240 --> 09:22.839
There's evidence of nuggets
on the table in front of us.

09:22.920 --> 09:24.520
Don't know what they're called in France.

09:24.600 --> 09:26.720
Les nuggets de poulet. I don't know.

09:27.920 --> 09:30.920
She's got a big smile on her face, belly
full of nuggets, having a lovely time.

09:31.000 --> 09:33.680
Next to her is the prettiest boy
in school.

09:33.760 --> 09:35.880
The prettiest boy in school.

09:35.959 --> 09:38.600
And I sent a message to Sam, Deborah,
and I said,

09:39.240 --> 09:41.120
"Do you remember
we all used to fancy him?"

09:41.199 --> 09:42.520
She said, "Yeah."

09:42.600 --> 09:43.800
"Not now."

09:44.360 --> 09:47.400
I said, "What does that mean?" She said,
"I've looked him up on Facebook."

09:47.480 --> 09:49.199
"Not now."

09:51.040 --> 09:53.120
He peaked at 12.

09:54.800 --> 09:56.760
Eager beaver. Then there's me.

09:57.280 --> 09:59.800
Remember I said everybody's
in crazy earrings, chunky jumpers?

09:59.880 --> 10:01.240
Not me. I'm wearing a blazer.

10:01.320 --> 10:03.240
Not a school blazer
'cause I'm not at school.

10:03.320 --> 10:04.640
A fashion blazer.

10:04.720 --> 10:06.880
I can only imagine
I got it out of my sister's catalogue.

10:06.959 --> 10:08.079
She used to run a catalogue.

10:08.160 --> 10:11.360
Twenty-five pence a week,
for the rest of my natural life.

10:11.880 --> 10:13.160
Should check my bank statements.

10:13.240 --> 10:15.680
There is a strong chance
I am still paying for that now.

10:15.760 --> 10:16.959
I've got the sleeves pushed up.

10:17.040 --> 10:18.959
Sort of Miami Vice style.

10:19.040 --> 10:21.240
Uh… Thanks.

10:21.320 --> 10:23.839
Underneath the blazer is a blouse.

10:23.920 --> 10:26.480
I think this is why
I'm really good at being 49

10:26.560 --> 10:30.680
'cause I think
I might have always been 49.

10:31.800 --> 10:35.480
Not even finished.
On the blouse is a brooch.

10:38.440 --> 10:40.560
Not even a cool kid's brooch,
where it would be like,

10:40.640 --> 10:42.440
"Hey, I like the penguin on your lapel."

10:42.520 --> 10:46.199
No, a little lady's brooch
right at the top of the blouse.

10:46.720 --> 10:49.760
Keeping it shut, presumably
so that nobody could see my

10:49.839 --> 10:50.920
vest.

10:53.320 --> 10:54.719
What the fuck was I hiding up here?

10:54.800 --> 10:56.719
It was four more years
till I grew any tits.

10:56.800 --> 10:58.719
What the fuck was I hiding up here?

10:58.800 --> 11:02.400
Also, I'm not sure my tits have ever been
visible from up here.

11:02.920 --> 11:04.920
Down there, perhaps.

11:05.680 --> 11:06.920
Not up here.

11:07.440 --> 11:12.640
I've got my sleeves pushed up, I've got
my arms folded, and I look fucking livid.

11:13.920 --> 11:17.839
And I sent a message to Sam, Deborah,
and I said, "I look livid."

11:17.920 --> 11:20.600
She said, "You look
like an office manager."

11:22.680 --> 11:25.199
And she's right. I look like
maybe I couldn't get a boyfriend,

11:25.280 --> 11:27.000
but I bet I could have gotten a mortgage.

11:27.079 --> 11:28.880
That's what I look like.

11:29.760 --> 11:32.040
I look like the one in your friend
group, might even be you,

11:32.120 --> 11:35.360
you know the one who works out who owes
what on the bill at the end of the meal?

11:36.199 --> 11:39.719
She's not that sociable, just comes out
for the maths, that one. I look like her.

11:42.400 --> 11:44.719
But the reason I look so livid is apparent

11:44.800 --> 11:47.120
as soon as you realize
that the last person in the photograph

11:47.199 --> 11:49.480
on my right, your left, is my bully.

11:49.560 --> 11:51.640
And I thought,
"How did I get from there to here?"

11:51.719 --> 11:54.199
How did I get from there,
being so shy and lacking in confidence,

11:54.280 --> 11:57.120
I couldn't say to one of the other kids,
or a teacher, or a helper,

11:57.199 --> 11:59.760
"Can I sit beside you
'cause she's always awful to me?"

11:59.839 --> 12:02.480
I just sat there, just took it.
Yes, I was furious,

12:02.560 --> 12:05.400
bursting out my fucking brooch,
but I still just took it.

12:05.480 --> 12:06.959
How did I get from there to here?

12:07.040 --> 12:10.000
Here, which is essentially talking
to people I've never met before

12:10.079 --> 12:11.280
about my fanny.

12:12.959 --> 12:14.280
For money.

12:22.839 --> 12:23.880
So over the course of show,

12:23.959 --> 12:26.240
I'm gonna tell you stuff
about me as a kid, about me now,

12:26.320 --> 12:28.480
and try and work out
how I got from A to B.

12:28.560 --> 12:31.000
I had two good friends at school,
you don't need more than that.

12:31.079 --> 12:33.880
I also had pen pals. Anybody have
a pen pal when they were a kid?

12:33.959 --> 12:34.880
-Whoo!
-Yeah!

12:34.959 --> 12:37.400
So there was a company called
Transatlantic Pen Friends,

12:37.480 --> 12:40.120
where you could get an American pen pal.
I was excited by this.

12:40.199 --> 12:42.640
A lot of the television I watched
as a kid was American.

12:42.719 --> 12:45.959
I thought there was a pretty good chance
I was going to end up writing to Fonzie,

12:46.040 --> 12:47.360
that's what I thought.

12:48.199 --> 12:51.520
But how they matched you up with somebody
you'd have something in common with

12:51.599 --> 12:53.199
is you sent a list of favorite things.

12:53.280 --> 12:55.199
Everybody did the same,
and they paired you off.

12:55.280 --> 12:58.160
The boy they matched me up with
was a similar age to me,

12:58.240 --> 13:01.320
but number one on his list
of favorite things

13:01.400 --> 13:03.800
was the word "knives."

13:05.360 --> 13:07.360
Hey, America's different, isn't it?

13:07.440 --> 13:09.040
Mine was "satsumas."

13:12.680 --> 13:14.400
Compared to his list,
mine was so innocent.

13:14.480 --> 13:18.320
Oh my God, it was so innocent.
Mine was "satsumas, stationery,

13:18.400 --> 13:22.040
uh, Rolf's Cartoon Club, Jim'll Fix It,
and The Cosby Show."

13:32.000 --> 13:33.920
I was also in Gary Glitter's gang.

13:37.480 --> 13:41.560
I put my back out a while ago.
When some people put their backs out,

13:41.640 --> 13:43.680
they're in agonizing pain,
laid up for months.

13:43.760 --> 13:46.560
If that's you, you have my sympathy.
Thankfully, it's not so bad for me.

13:46.640 --> 13:48.440
I basically pulled something in my back

13:48.520 --> 13:50.240
that meant things were tricky
for a few days.

13:50.320 --> 13:53.040
I know exactly how I did it, though.
I put my back out

13:53.120 --> 13:54.719
trimming my pubes.

13:56.480 --> 13:59.880
'Cause the fatter you get,
the further away they are.

14:01.079 --> 14:03.440
I texted my friend,
'cause I thought it was hilarious,

14:03.520 --> 14:06.120
"I think I just put my back out
trimming my pubes."

14:06.199 --> 14:08.280
And she replied
with the weirdest question.

14:08.360 --> 14:10.520
She just replied, "Front to back?"

14:16.640 --> 14:19.280
I said, "Well, I didn't section it off
like a hairdresser does,

14:19.360 --> 14:20.959
if that's what you mean."

14:26.079 --> 14:29.079
But you know how doctors'
receptionists are bitches?

14:29.599 --> 14:30.560
Yeah!

14:30.640 --> 14:34.360
It's not my opinion, it's just a fact
in the world. They're all bitches.

14:34.439 --> 14:36.040
I had to ring up to book a smear test.

14:36.120 --> 14:38.360
The receptionist
booked the appointment no trouble.

14:38.439 --> 14:41.599
Then she said, "Just to let you know,
for the two weeks before the smear test,

14:41.680 --> 14:43.280
you're not allowed to have any sex."

14:43.360 --> 14:44.520
-Huh?
-Thank you!

14:44.599 --> 14:46.880
Somebody over there went, "Huh?"
Thank you!

14:47.400 --> 14:50.319
I never heard that before. I said that
to the lady. "Can you tell me why?"

14:50.400 --> 14:53.520
She said, "I'm sorry, I can't. It's what
we're told to say when we book the test."

14:53.599 --> 14:56.240
Okay. So two weeks go by,
something with work crops up,

14:56.319 --> 14:58.319
I have to re-book,
ends up being four weeks.

14:58.400 --> 14:59.880
"Boo-hoo!" I don't know what that is.

15:01.640 --> 15:04.400
I think I'm trying to show you
what a sad vagina looks like.

15:10.000 --> 15:11.640
"Your basket is still empty."

15:15.599 --> 15:17.479
So four weeks go by,
I go in for the appointment.

15:17.560 --> 15:18.839
I'm sitting with a lovely nurse.

15:18.920 --> 15:21.120
She said, "Before we start,
have you got any questions?"

15:21.199 --> 15:23.400
I said, "I have, actually.
When I booked this appointment,

15:23.479 --> 15:26.640
the receptionist told me that
for the two weeks before the smear test,

15:26.719 --> 15:28.560
I'm not allowed to have any sex.
Is that true?"

15:28.640 --> 15:30.640
She said no. Fucking bitches.

15:30.719 --> 15:32.560
Fucking bitches.

15:39.040 --> 15:41.760
When I first had that information,
I mentioned it to one of my friends,

15:41.839 --> 15:43.959
and she said, "Do they mean
you have to stop everything

15:44.040 --> 15:45.439
or just the jizzy stuff?"

15:51.400 --> 15:54.520
I think I've given you a pretty good idea
of what I was like as a kid already,

15:54.599 --> 15:57.479
but allow me to color that in
a bit further for you, if I may.

15:57.560 --> 16:01.000
"I was the kid who sat
at the front of the bus on school trips

16:01.079 --> 16:03.079
to talk to the driver."

16:04.920 --> 16:07.319
And vomit in the bucket.

16:07.839 --> 16:09.760
I mentioned this
to one of my friends. She said,

16:09.839 --> 16:12.160
"Was there a bucket
at the front of the bus?" I said, "Yeah."

16:12.240 --> 16:15.199
"What were you doing?" She said,
"Flashing my tits at the lorry drivers."

16:18.160 --> 16:21.959
"I was the kid who was put on a table
of tricksy kids to keep them in line."

16:22.040 --> 16:26.240
I was part teaching assistant,
part ADHD meds.

16:26.839 --> 16:29.479
There was one boy on that table
who used to sneeze on the table

16:29.560 --> 16:30.680
and rub it in.

16:32.199 --> 16:34.880
And years and years later,
he asked me out in a nightclub,

16:34.959 --> 16:38.079
and all I could think of was,
"What would he rub on the table now?"

16:40.640 --> 16:42.400
He's a French polisher now.

16:45.439 --> 16:47.599
"While other girls were growing pubes,

16:47.680 --> 16:50.040
I was growing cress in an egg."

16:51.120 --> 16:53.040
Sticking it on. No!

16:54.000 --> 16:56.560
It's a good idea.
I wish I'd had it at the time.

16:57.599 --> 17:00.120
"While other girls were being
fingered behind the bike sheds,

17:00.199 --> 17:02.640
I couldn't even ride a bike."

17:03.280 --> 17:06.399
I didn't know where the bike sheds were.

17:06.480 --> 17:10.560
What if there were fingers
lined up for me there as well?

17:10.640 --> 17:12.880
I mean, I'm not a parent,
but if you have got kids,

17:12.960 --> 17:14.399
teach them how to ride a bike

17:14.480 --> 17:18.359
'cause if you don't, it's gonna
affect them in so many different ways.

17:19.640 --> 17:22.480
"I lied about my age
to get into Jason Donovan."

17:22.560 --> 17:24.960
The concert, not the man.

17:29.040 --> 17:31.919
And finally,
does anybody remember More magazine?

17:32.000 --> 17:32.840
-Yes!
-Yes.

17:32.919 --> 17:35.640
So, if you don't know More magazine,
it was a late-teen magazine,

17:35.720 --> 17:38.040
it was fortnightly,
had a very famous page,

17:38.120 --> 17:39.760
Position of the Fortnight,

17:40.280 --> 17:43.120
which was a weird pencil drawing
of a couple having sex

17:43.200 --> 17:44.800
in a variety of different ways.

17:44.880 --> 17:48.280
I was looking at this every two weeks.
I hadn't had my first kiss yet.

17:48.800 --> 17:52.560
Didn't need More magazine,
I needed fucking Any magazine.

17:53.080 --> 17:56.240
Also, how confident are you when you start
a magazine with a column like that,

17:56.320 --> 17:57.800
that you know enough positions?

17:57.880 --> 18:01.600
That magazine ran for 25 years.

18:01.680 --> 18:03.159
I, as an adult,

18:03.240 --> 18:06.320
only know five positions.

18:06.399 --> 18:08.240
I only do two.

18:10.399 --> 18:11.360
One.

18:19.120 --> 18:21.159
Unless it's a birthday.

18:22.560 --> 18:24.360
My birthday.

18:25.480 --> 18:28.480
For my last birthday,
I requested the wheelbarrow.

18:28.560 --> 18:30.840
Don't know if you're familiar
with the wheelbarrow?

18:30.919 --> 18:32.960
Would not recommend.

18:34.360 --> 18:35.720
My husband put his back out,

18:35.800 --> 18:38.120
and I got carpet burns on my nipples.

18:47.399 --> 18:51.560
I don't think everybody in our house knows
how to use a toilet brush correctly.

18:52.080 --> 18:53.960
There's only two of us, and I'm fine.

18:55.679 --> 18:58.240
For example, the last time I pulled it
out the… What is it called?

18:58.320 --> 18:59.640
The holder? Is it the holder?

18:59.720 --> 19:01.200
-Yes.
-You know what I mean?

19:01.280 --> 19:03.320
Where the poo soup lives. Yeah.

19:08.600 --> 19:13.159
If you are horrified by that,
hold on tight, guys!

19:16.000 --> 19:17.640
The last time I pulled it out the holder,

19:17.720 --> 19:20.000
it looked like a fucking cake pop.

19:25.320 --> 19:29.320
"Can't use that now.
It's gonna put more poo on the toilet."

19:29.399 --> 19:32.040
"Also, how is he building it up so much?"

19:32.120 --> 19:33.600
I have to stop doing that.

19:33.679 --> 19:36.440
I'm worried I'm gonna put people
off candy floss for life.

19:36.520 --> 19:38.040
Ah!

19:38.600 --> 19:40.480
How am I supposed
to clean it when it's that bad?

19:40.560 --> 19:43.480
Is it like a hairbrush?
Do I have to comb it through?

19:43.560 --> 19:45.640
No, no.

19:45.720 --> 19:48.080
What about if I popped it
in the dishwasher?

19:48.600 --> 19:49.440
No?

19:49.520 --> 19:53.240
I thought I could lie it flat on the top
with all my vibrators and my big spoons.

19:57.840 --> 19:59.679
Transpires that before he met me,

19:59.760 --> 20:01.840
my husband used to think
the toilet brush was used

20:01.919 --> 20:03.399
for unblocking the toilet.

20:04.200 --> 20:07.520
Everybody knows if you need
to unblock a toilet, you need a vacuum.

20:08.200 --> 20:10.360
No, not like a hoover.

20:10.440 --> 20:12.440
Imagine Henry's face.

20:15.720 --> 20:18.040
You need to create a vacuum,
is what I should have said.

20:18.120 --> 20:21.720
Some of you looking at me like you never
had a big shit in your life. Fuck off.

20:22.760 --> 20:24.840
So now we've got a plunger in every room.

20:24.919 --> 20:26.480
Every bathroom, not every room.

20:27.919 --> 20:31.840
Just one by the side of the bed, just in
case we're fucking and he gets stuck.

20:37.919 --> 20:40.520
But it's not that long ago
that my husband found out

20:40.600 --> 20:43.640
that the towels
he brought into our relationship

20:43.720 --> 20:45.679
have gone to live on a farm.

20:47.480 --> 20:48.840
Two towels, both bath towels.

20:48.919 --> 20:51.159
One had Elvis on it,
one had Aston Villa on it,

20:51.240 --> 20:53.360
and they hung on a hook each
in his bathroom,

20:53.440 --> 20:55.120
and they were what could only be described

20:55.200 --> 20:56.399
as crispy.

20:57.880 --> 20:59.960
So much so that I knocked one
off the hook one day,

21:00.040 --> 21:02.040
and it landed and held its shape.

21:03.480 --> 21:07.080
Like a ghost.
Like his bathroom was haunted.

21:08.120 --> 21:11.200
Early in our relationship, one day I said,
"Have you got a towel I could borrow?

21:11.280 --> 21:13.240
He said, "Use either
of the ones in the bathroom."

21:13.320 --> 21:15.840
And I was like, "What if I like my skin?"

21:16.360 --> 21:18.120
He looked in the cupboard
for any alternative.

21:18.200 --> 21:20.159
He found what looked like
a small white hand towel.

21:20.240 --> 21:22.280
I thought, "That'll have to do."
But when I opened it,

21:22.360 --> 21:25.000
it turned out to be
an Ibis hotel bath mat.

21:25.080 --> 21:26.720
For fuck's sake.

21:29.960 --> 21:31.960
Things were very different for him
before he met me.

21:32.040 --> 21:34.159
He used to have black bedsheets.

21:34.240 --> 21:36.919
And not like in a…
Mr. Lover Loverkind of way.

21:37.000 --> 21:39.520
Just George at Asda cotton black sheets.

21:39.600 --> 21:42.040
His reasoning was that
they wouldn't show anything up.

21:44.679 --> 21:47.040
You know what they did show up? Jizz.

21:49.080 --> 21:52.080
If anything,
they were jizz-enhancing sheets.

21:53.040 --> 21:55.120
Looked like a Bob Ross painting.

21:57.560 --> 22:00.200
One day, I thought I'd seen Jesus's face.

22:02.600 --> 22:04.000
Which presumably would count

22:04.080 --> 22:05.159
as the second coming.

22:14.919 --> 22:17.240
At school… I don't know
if this is just my school or area.

22:17.320 --> 22:19.280
Let's find out.
This is just for the ladies.

22:19.360 --> 22:22.080
Give me a whoo
if, when you did PE at school,

22:22.159 --> 22:24.159
you had to have a shower afterwards.

22:24.240 --> 22:27.240
-Whoo!
-Give a whoo if that shower was communal.

22:27.320 --> 22:28.560
-Whoo!
-Okay.

22:28.640 --> 22:32.480
I had two problems with the showers.
The first was I don't think I did enough

22:32.560 --> 22:33.919
in PE

22:35.080 --> 22:37.320
to warrant a shower.

22:38.560 --> 22:41.679
Starting at the side and then putting
the balls back in the cupboard at the end

22:41.760 --> 22:44.120
did not make me very sweaty.

22:44.200 --> 22:47.200
Second problem I had was that
I was very underdeveloped at that age.

22:47.280 --> 22:50.720
Uh, I was very self-conscious of that.
I didn't get boobs and pubes…

22:50.800 --> 22:52.159
Ooh, it rhymes!

22:52.240 --> 22:54.679
Shoulders, knees and toes
Knees and toes

22:54.760 --> 22:58.080
Didn't get boobs and pubes
until I got my GCSEs.

22:58.159 --> 22:59.960
Not, like, as a "Well done."

23:01.360 --> 23:04.040
"You've done quite well in your exams.
Have some tits and hair."

23:04.120 --> 23:06.360
"Just take whatever you like out the bag."

23:07.200 --> 23:09.600
"Ooh, there's a little bit
of hair left. Uh…"

23:14.439 --> 23:17.560
But because of puberty, there were girls
in my year that looked like proper women.

23:17.640 --> 23:20.520
I just looked like a young girl.
So I'd wrap a towel around myself.

23:20.600 --> 23:22.880
I'd keep the towel wrapped.
I'd go into the shower area.

23:22.960 --> 23:26.200
I'd splash my shoulders and I'd splash
my feet, and try and get away with that.

23:26.280 --> 23:28.520
But give me a whoo
if sometimes your teacher watched.

23:28.600 --> 23:30.000
-Whoo!
-Yeah!

23:30.080 --> 23:33.840
We call them pedophiles now.
A friend who's Australian said,

23:33.919 --> 23:35.600
"It's not like that in Australia.
Terrible."

23:35.679 --> 23:37.919
I said, "I know it's terrible.
I was just so self-conscious

23:38.000 --> 23:39.640
'cause I didn't have any boobs and pubes."

23:39.720 --> 23:43.000
She said, "Well, you've made up
for lost time there, haven't you?"

23:43.080 --> 23:44.919
I was like,
"I'm assuming she means my tits."

23:45.000 --> 23:47.520
"I'm not sure she's seen my pubes."

23:47.600 --> 23:49.919
Although she does know
I haven't put my back out in a while.

23:50.000 --> 23:52.399
So she's just done
a rough calculation there.

23:52.919 --> 23:55.600
She said, "I bet you'd have a shower
with all those people now."

23:55.679 --> 24:00.240
I said, "That would be the weirdest ever
response to a school reunion invitation."

24:01.840 --> 24:03.360
"Sure, I'll come to the pub with you."

24:03.439 --> 24:05.360
"Do you mind if first,
we have a shower together?"

24:05.439 --> 24:08.640
"'Cause I've been growing some stuff
I think you're gonna wanna see."

24:09.960 --> 24:13.800
"So many pubes now, some of them
are coming out my fucking chin."

24:13.880 --> 24:16.040
It's true.

24:20.080 --> 24:22.240
Love a big handbag.
Haven't always loved a big handbag.

24:22.320 --> 24:24.080
When I was sort of late teens, early 20s,

24:24.159 --> 24:25.960
I had… you know the kind
that goes across you?

24:26.040 --> 24:27.439
I had one of those smaller bags.

24:27.520 --> 24:30.800
It felt important at that age to have my
hands free for whatever life threw at me.

24:30.880 --> 24:34.840
I was ready. Be it opportunity or danger,
I was fucking ready.

24:34.919 --> 24:37.640
I wanted to be able
to pick up a pound coin, peel a satsuma,

24:37.720 --> 24:40.880
punch a rapist,
all the things I thought might come up.

24:40.960 --> 24:42.600
Now, though, I prefer a big handbag

24:42.679 --> 24:44.600
that can contain everything
I could possibly need.

24:44.679 --> 24:46.600
Give me a whoo if you like a big handbag?

24:46.679 --> 24:48.600
-Whoo!
-Small handbag?

24:48.679 --> 24:50.439
-Whoo!
-Prefer no handbag?

24:50.520 --> 24:52.679
-Whoo!
-You're the people that scare me most.

24:52.760 --> 24:55.320
'Cause you're not prepared
for fucking anything at all.

24:56.240 --> 24:59.040
I have a friend who has a small handbag.
We were comparing our bags.

24:59.120 --> 25:03.679
She noticed that my purse was
the same size as her handbag.

25:03.760 --> 25:05.919
And just to give you an idea,
my purse is the same size

25:06.000 --> 25:08.679
as the one my nana used
to run after the ice-cream van with.

25:08.760 --> 25:13.679
You know, massive and can be used
as an improvised weapon if needs be.

25:14.199 --> 25:16.880
She said, "You can't need everything
that's in that." I said, "I do."

25:16.960 --> 25:20.240
"I've got bank cards. Other bank cards
in case the first bank cards don't work."

25:20.320 --> 25:22.679
"I've got cash
in case none of the bank cards work."

25:22.760 --> 25:25.880
"I've got gift cards.
I've got Clubcards. I've got stamps."

25:25.960 --> 25:29.800
And she went,
"Do you not just use Apple Pay?"

25:29.880 --> 25:32.240
"Neh-neh-neh-neh-neh."

25:33.679 --> 25:35.520
I said, "No, 'cause
I decided two years ago

25:35.600 --> 25:37.439
to not learn anything new ever again,

25:37.520 --> 25:39.080
and I'm fucking loving it."

25:40.439 --> 25:42.880
I said, "In that little bag,
you must have your house keys?"

25:42.960 --> 25:46.720
She said, "Yeah." She brought out one
solitary key. No key ring attached.

25:46.800 --> 25:49.159
I said, "My first worry is
how you're going to defend yourself

25:49.240 --> 25:51.520
if you have to get the last bus home
late at night."

25:51.600 --> 25:54.399
That's what we're taught. You put
your keys between all your fingers.

25:54.480 --> 25:57.760
One key! She's going to have
to hope she's got good aim.

25:58.679 --> 26:01.280
Just gouge his fucking eye out.

26:01.360 --> 26:04.000
"Excuse me, Mr. Rapist, do you mind
taking your glasses off, please?"

26:04.080 --> 26:06.480
"Thank you."
But that's what we're taught, isn't it?

26:06.560 --> 26:08.919
We're taught you put your keys
between all your fingers.

26:09.000 --> 26:10.600
That's what we're taught, and claw down.

26:10.679 --> 26:13.840
From what, 14 or 15?
It's great being a woman.

26:14.360 --> 26:15.960
And I worked in a shop in my 20s.

26:16.040 --> 26:18.159
There was a lady,
a bit older than me, worked there,

26:18.240 --> 26:19.560
and she said to me one day,

26:19.640 --> 26:22.640
"You should only ever wear shoes
you can run in."

26:22.720 --> 26:25.159
How fucking bleak is that?

26:25.679 --> 26:28.360
I said it back to her, 'cause I wanted her
to hear how bad it sounded.

26:28.439 --> 26:31.520
I said, "You think I should only
ever wear shoes that I…

26:32.040 --> 26:34.960
I can run in?"

26:35.040 --> 26:38.240
"You want me to wear magic shoes?"

26:44.120 --> 26:47.240
But I brought out my set of keys to show
my friend. I look like I run a jail.

26:47.320 --> 26:50.760
I have emergency keys
for four other people's houses.

26:50.840 --> 26:53.240
My friend said, "You don't carry them
all the time, though."

26:53.320 --> 26:57.159
I said, "Yes I do 'cause I take
emergencies fucking seriously."

26:57.679 --> 26:59.720
Same friend, out for the day,
having a lovely day.

26:59.800 --> 27:02.040
She started her period.
Wasn't expecting to.

27:02.120 --> 27:04.679
Didn't have anything with her
in her stupid little bag.

27:05.199 --> 27:08.000
My first thought was, "She's going
to have to use her stupid little bag

27:08.080 --> 27:10.199
as a sanitary towel."

27:12.560 --> 27:15.640
But she looked at me all sad eyed. She
said, "I haven't got anything with me."

27:15.720 --> 27:17.880
"Have you got anything?"
I said, "What do you think?"

27:17.960 --> 27:20.919
"I've got 12 nighttime towels."

27:23.000 --> 27:26.439
Wasn't even due on for two more weeks.
That's how fucking ready I am!

27:27.600 --> 27:29.439
But for example,
with what I have in my bag

27:29.520 --> 27:32.240
that I brought here today,
if 12 of you started your period,

27:32.320 --> 27:33.679
I can sort you out.

27:33.760 --> 27:35.760
I've got your back.
Well, it's a nighttime towel.

27:35.840 --> 27:38.439
I've got your front as well.
They're fucking massive, aren't they?

27:40.360 --> 27:43.679
"Just take this canoe
and try and hold it in place."

27:47.760 --> 27:50.080
If six of you got a blister,
I can sort you out.

27:50.159 --> 27:52.720
Not just a pissy little plaster, either.
A fucking Compeed.

27:52.800 --> 27:55.560
I can give six of you a fucking Compeed.

27:55.640 --> 27:57.720
The sort you can't even
peel off in the shower.

27:57.800 --> 28:00.399
You just have
to eventually shed them like a snake.

28:03.439 --> 28:06.240
If 28 of you needed a pen…

28:08.679 --> 28:11.199
I can do it. I'm not even ashamed.

28:11.720 --> 28:13.399
If you've got the shits,
I can sort you out.

28:13.480 --> 28:16.120
I've got two different types of Imodium.

28:17.000 --> 28:19.320
I've got Imodium Instant
and Imodium Classic.

28:19.399 --> 28:22.679
Does anybody know
why Imodium Classic still exists?

28:22.760 --> 28:27.280
Who is thinking,
"I'd like my diarrhea to stop

28:28.000 --> 28:29.320
but in a while"?

28:38.159 --> 28:40.800
If any of you haven't had a shit today
but would like one before bed,

28:40.880 --> 28:43.120
I've got fucking Senokot.

28:47.280 --> 28:52.040
Interestingly, Senokot
never brought out an instant range.

28:53.159 --> 28:55.040
'Cause it would just be like this.
"Ha ha ha!"

28:55.120 --> 28:56.520
Bam! "Fuck!"

28:59.520 --> 29:01.560
"Glad I've got my canoe on."

29:07.000 --> 29:08.120
I would like to talk to you,

29:08.199 --> 29:10.439
see if anybody in this beautiful room
of glorious people

29:10.520 --> 29:13.879
would like to shout out an unusual thing
that you have in your bag.

29:13.959 --> 29:17.360
It doesn't just have to be a handbag.
It can be a bum bag, backpack, briefcase.

29:17.439 --> 29:19.600
Whatever it is you carry with you
on a regular basis.

29:19.679 --> 29:22.280
We'll section you off to make it easier.
Let me give an example.

29:22.360 --> 29:24.199
I was in quite a posh area recently,
and I said,

29:24.280 --> 29:26.439
"What's the most unusual thing
you have in your bag?"

29:26.520 --> 29:28.000
And a lady shouted out,

29:28.080 --> 29:29.600
"Balsamic vinegar."

29:33.040 --> 29:35.439
And I said, "Can I ask
why you carry balsamic vinegar?"

29:35.520 --> 29:38.000
She said, "Just in case
I'm ever confronted

29:38.080 --> 29:40.679
with a salad that's undressed."

29:43.040 --> 29:44.040
What?

29:46.159 --> 29:49.240
But I think the easiest way to talk
to you guys is in the sections you're in.

29:49.320 --> 29:51.199
We'll do upstairs first.
We'll divide you in two.

29:51.280 --> 29:54.080
Anybody want to shout out an unusual
thing that you have in your bag?

29:54.159 --> 29:55.120
Anybody want to start?

29:55.199 --> 29:57.560
-Cutlery set.
-A cutlery set?

29:57.639 --> 29:59.320
A knife, fork, and spoon.

29:59.399 --> 30:00.919
I understand what cutlery is.

30:10.240 --> 30:12.840
Do you think I was just
shoveling it in with my hands?

30:14.560 --> 30:16.959
"Look at her, she probably uses a trowel."

30:19.800 --> 30:22.720
What are they made of, my lovely?
Are they plastic? Are they wooden?

30:22.800 --> 30:26.040
They're plastic because I don't like it
when you get the wooden ones.

30:26.120 --> 30:27.840
It makes my mouth go all funny.

30:27.919 --> 30:29.240
-Whoo!
-Okay.

30:29.840 --> 30:31.879
One fan of…

30:31.959 --> 30:35.439
So that's two of you like killing
the turtles. Is that right?

30:35.520 --> 30:38.320
So you don't like the wooden ones.

30:38.399 --> 30:40.240
-No.
-And they're plastic. Are they silicone?

30:40.320 --> 30:42.800
-Or are they, like, plastic plastic?
-They're like silicone.

30:42.879 --> 30:44.480
-They're in a little plastic…
-So…

30:44.560 --> 30:46.360
-A silicone tub.
-Oh, this is nice.

30:46.439 --> 30:48.679
So they're all together.

30:48.760 --> 30:51.320
Slightly jealous.

30:52.840 --> 30:55.520
-Do they stay in your bag all the time?
-Yeah.

30:55.600 --> 30:57.199
-Fucking amazing.
-I've got a metal straw.

30:57.280 --> 30:58.800
I don't like the paper straws.

30:58.879 --> 31:00.840
I don't like the feel. The feel.

31:00.919 --> 31:04.240
Oh! You're what
I would call a fussy fanny.

31:07.360 --> 31:08.520
Is this your partner?

31:08.600 --> 31:11.480
-Yes, my husband.
-You put up with a lot, don't you, flower?

31:12.679 --> 31:13.600
Loads.

31:13.679 --> 31:16.159
Is there another thing she doesn't like
the feel of in her mouth?

31:24.840 --> 31:27.560
"I like my rubber one.
I don't like your meaty one."

31:27.639 --> 31:30.720
"It just feels…
it feels weird on my teeth."

31:30.800 --> 31:33.040
"You're not supposed
to use your fucking teeth!"

31:34.919 --> 31:37.320
I… You see, I don't carry
a full set of cutlery,

31:37.399 --> 31:38.879
but I do carry a spoon.

31:38.959 --> 31:41.240
And the reason for that,
you know, every now and again,

31:41.320 --> 31:44.879
there's sort of surprise cake
that you didn't know was gonna happen.

31:44.959 --> 31:47.280
Somebody'll be like,
"Sandra's birthday next week,

31:47.360 --> 31:49.480
but she's on holiday,
so I've got cake today."

31:49.560 --> 31:51.439
Everybody scatters looking for cutlery,

31:51.520 --> 31:54.240
and me and that nice lady there
just fucking start.

31:56.760 --> 31:58.959
Can we have a nice round
of applause for the cutlery lady?

31:59.040 --> 32:00.199
Thank you!

32:00.280 --> 32:02.000
Good answer, thank you.

32:05.520 --> 32:07.840
Excellent work upstairs.
Downstairs, pressure's on.

32:07.919 --> 32:10.919
Anybody on this side want to shout out
an unusual thing you've got in your bag?

32:11.000 --> 32:14.120
-Fire brigade keys.
-Fire brigade keys.

32:14.199 --> 32:17.560
I genuinely thought
you said "vibragate keys."

32:18.719 --> 32:20.879
"I open the vibragate."

32:22.080 --> 32:23.199
"Come join me."

32:23.719 --> 32:25.719
Fire brigade keys?

32:25.800 --> 32:29.080
Now, you are…
Presumably, you work for the fire brigade.

32:29.159 --> 32:31.040
-No.
-No? Fuck!

32:33.679 --> 32:35.560
It's worrying. Isn't it worrying?

32:36.360 --> 32:38.560
Why are you allowed
to keep the keys, then?

32:39.360 --> 32:41.879
Um, I do use them for work.

32:41.959 --> 32:45.159
I work in fire safety,
just not for the fire service.

32:45.240 --> 32:47.600
Okay, hold on. Don't clap.

32:49.120 --> 32:50.800
Still feels dodgy to me.

32:51.600 --> 32:53.040
So you work in fire safety.

32:53.120 --> 32:55.399
What is… Have you got a good…
an impressive job title?

32:55.480 --> 32:58.120
-What's your job title, flower?
-Fire risk assessor.

32:58.199 --> 32:59.520
Fire risk assessor.

32:59.600 --> 33:02.320
It's exciting,
then it goes boring, doesn't it?

33:02.879 --> 33:04.800
Fire, wow! Risk, wow!

33:04.879 --> 33:07.800
Assessor. It just says clipboard
to me, doesn't it?

33:07.879 --> 33:09.639
Are you largely clipboard based?

33:09.719 --> 33:10.800
Yes, you're largely…

33:10.879 --> 33:13.919
But why are you allowed the keys
to the whole fire brigade?

33:14.840 --> 33:16.360
I don't understand.

33:16.439 --> 33:18.560
'Cause I take emergencies seriously.

33:18.639 --> 33:20.000
Becau--

33:20.080 --> 33:22.240
She takes emergencies seriously!

33:25.080 --> 33:27.399
I love it! I fucking love it.

33:27.480 --> 33:29.639
We could be friends. I like it.
Thank you very much.

33:29.719 --> 33:30.879
A better round of applause…

33:30.959 --> 33:34.600
We need a nice round of applause
for the fire risk assessor.

33:34.679 --> 33:36.240
Nice!

33:37.240 --> 33:39.800
Anybody want to shout out
an unusual thing you've got your bag?

33:39.879 --> 33:42.480
-Whistle and a face mask.
-Hold on. Say it again?

33:42.560 --> 33:44.000
A whistle and a face mask.

33:44.080 --> 33:45.879
-A whistle and a face mask.
-Yeah.

33:45.959 --> 33:47.919
You say that like they come
in the same pack.

33:49.840 --> 33:51.480
No? No.

33:51.560 --> 33:53.439
So why did you shout them both out?

33:53.520 --> 33:54.919
'Cause they're on my lanyard.

33:55.000 --> 33:56.480
-From school.
-They're on your lanyard?

33:56.560 --> 33:57.840
-Ooh.
-Ooh!

33:59.159 --> 34:01.719
I love people
who are impressed with lanyards.

34:01.800 --> 34:07.879
"Ooh-ooh-ooh! Somebody's got
a job that's security conscious!" Uh…

34:07.959 --> 34:09.600
What kind of job do you do, flower?

34:09.679 --> 34:11.759
-Teaching assistant.
-A teaching assistant?

34:11.839 --> 34:12.839
Yeah.

34:12.920 --> 34:14.319
And…

34:14.920 --> 34:16.159
Wha…

34:18.960 --> 34:21.719
Are you not allowed to talk
about your job? Is that your phone going?

34:21.799 --> 34:23.760
-It's not my phone!
-Somebody going to shut you up?

34:23.839 --> 34:24.679
Not my phone.

34:24.760 --> 34:28.199
"We told you not to mention
the teaching assistant job."

34:29.480 --> 34:31.880
"Blow the whistle,
we'll find you an exit."

34:41.839 --> 34:43.239
So…

34:44.040 --> 34:45.760
Is the whistle
like a proper school whistle?

34:45.839 --> 34:47.639
-Yes.
-Oh, fuck.

34:49.639 --> 34:51.280
Does anybody else wanna hear it?

34:51.360 --> 34:52.960
Yes!

34:53.040 --> 34:55.199
-Have you got it with you?
-It's in the car outside.

34:55.280 --> 34:57.520
-It's in the car.
-Aww…

34:58.520 --> 35:02.480
To be honest, I don't know
what it would make me do if… if she…

35:02.560 --> 35:04.960
I feel like it might make me, like…

35:05.040 --> 35:07.600
-Stand still.
-Stop with a netball. You know, like…

35:08.960 --> 35:10.680
"Pivot, pivot, pivot, pivot."

35:11.360 --> 35:13.040
I'm not sure it would be a good noise.

35:13.120 --> 35:16.160
Maybe it's too triggering
for a lot of people, anyway.

35:16.240 --> 35:19.319
If anybody's like me
and fucking hated school.

35:19.400 --> 35:21.280
I love that you brought that.
What was the other?

35:21.360 --> 35:22.600
-Face mask…
-A face mask.

35:22.680 --> 35:24.920
Face… Thank you.
Somebody over there went "Face mask."

35:25.960 --> 35:27.760
A face mask. What kind of face mask?

35:27.839 --> 35:29.120
For CPR.

35:29.200 --> 35:31.200
-Oh, a C… Oh! Fuck!
-First aid.

35:31.280 --> 35:33.520
-Not like a… "I'm a clown!" Not like…
-No!

35:35.520 --> 35:37.080
Not like that?

35:37.160 --> 35:38.200
No.

35:38.920 --> 35:40.600
-A CPR one?
-Yeah.

35:40.680 --> 35:41.960
-For first aid.
-So, is that…

35:42.040 --> 35:44.880
I don't really know what…
Do you put it on the person's…

35:44.960 --> 35:47.080
-Tell me.
-Yeah. In case they're vomiting. Or blood.

35:47.160 --> 35:49.440
-Ugh!
-You put it on them and you do CPR.

35:50.200 --> 35:52.839
There's a couple of people in here
who would not save a life.

35:52.920 --> 35:54.480
Did you hear that? "Ugh!"

35:54.560 --> 35:57.520
"Ugh! Ugh!"

35:58.120 --> 35:59.640
So you put it over their mouth?

35:59.720 --> 36:01.760
-Yes.
-So you can give them mouth-to-mouth.

36:01.839 --> 36:03.400
-Yes.
-But you don't get any…

36:03.480 --> 36:04.560
-Jizz.
-Ugh!

36:04.640 --> 36:06.360
All right! All right!

36:09.520 --> 36:12.480
Does it… Is it…
Does it just work on mouths?

36:12.560 --> 36:14.440
Or could you, like, slot over a…

36:21.000 --> 36:22.960
Just slot it over a dick.

36:24.920 --> 36:28.200
"Yeah, I like the look of his dick,
but his balls are a fucking mess."

36:28.280 --> 36:31.920
"Just gonna cover them over."

36:34.000 --> 36:35.040
Ah!

36:35.960 --> 36:37.560
I'm so sorry.

36:38.280 --> 36:39.520
I'm not.

36:40.319 --> 36:43.600
Can we have a nice round of applause
for the teaching assistant? Thank you.

36:46.760 --> 36:49.600
Anybody else over this side?
Unusual thing you've got in your bag?

36:49.680 --> 36:51.560
-Doorstop.
-Loads! Hold on.

36:51.640 --> 36:53.520
-What was in the front?
-A doorstop.

36:53.600 --> 36:55.640
A doorstop.

36:57.200 --> 36:59.000
I love this. Already, I love this.

36:59.080 --> 37:00.480
Like, a wooden one or a…

37:00.560 --> 37:01.600
Uh, a rubber one.

37:01.680 --> 37:04.200
A rubber one? Just in your bag?

37:05.040 --> 37:08.080
I love it! I can't tell how old you are.

37:08.160 --> 37:10.560
Do you get sometimes a bit warm?

37:10.640 --> 37:13.319
Are you like, sort of… that kind of…

37:13.400 --> 37:16.560
"Need to prop a door open.
Somebody get me a wedge."

37:18.799 --> 37:21.600
Are you… You're too young, I think.
Are you a bit too young for that?

37:21.680 --> 37:23.000
It's for, like, hotel security.

37:23.080 --> 37:24.600
-When…
-It's for hotel security?

37:24.680 --> 37:26.880
Hold the fuck… I'm in hotels all the time!

37:26.960 --> 37:28.839
Have I been unsafe?

37:28.920 --> 37:31.920
Where's the fucking risk assessor?
We need you!

37:32.000 --> 37:33.880
Now…

37:33.960 --> 37:35.600
So you wedge the door shut, then?

37:35.680 --> 37:37.440
You're not, like,
wedging it open in a hotel!

37:37.520 --> 37:38.720
"Come on in!"

37:40.000 --> 37:43.600
"Come on in, I'm lonely."
So you wedge the door shut?

37:43.680 --> 37:45.839
-Sometimes they haven't got a latch on.
-Shut up!

37:45.920 --> 37:47.680
They often don't have a latch on!

37:47.760 --> 37:50.440
And you're just taking it on trust
that somebody's not gonna come in.

37:50.520 --> 37:52.200
-Yeah.
-You don't fucking trust anybody.

37:52.280 --> 37:54.839
I like that. "Wedge that door shut."

37:54.920 --> 37:57.160
Now, let's ask the fire assessor.
Hello, flower.

37:59.359 --> 38:01.920
Is this a fire hazard,
to have the door wedged shut?

38:02.720 --> 38:03.960
Yes, it is.

38:06.960 --> 38:10.240
But I feel like you knew that,
and you're willing to take the risk.

38:11.799 --> 38:14.799
'Cause the dangers are fire or men.
Is that right?

38:15.880 --> 38:18.359
And you've gone,
"I'll just take the fire. It's fine."

38:18.920 --> 38:22.040
I love how.…
I'd never even thought to carry a wedge.

38:22.720 --> 38:25.440
My God, I'm in hotels all the time.
I'm so unsafe.

38:25.960 --> 38:28.480
Thank you.
You've changed my life, potentially.

38:29.080 --> 38:31.120
I'm probably gonna burn in a fire,
but thanks.

38:33.040 --> 38:35.640
Round of applause, I love it.
I love it, it's a good answer.

38:38.760 --> 38:40.799
Wait, other people over here,
shout it again.

38:40.880 --> 38:42.960
-Cable ties.
-Cable ties?

38:43.040 --> 38:44.440
Mmm.

38:48.560 --> 38:50.480
That's why you've got the wedge.

38:58.080 --> 39:01.960
Now, tell me your job,
and let's hope it's fucking relevant.

39:03.319 --> 39:05.920
-Police officer.
-You're a police officer.

39:06.440 --> 39:09.200
Still feels iffy as fuck, doesn't it?

39:09.720 --> 39:11.760
Have you got the keys to the fire brigade?

39:11.839 --> 39:13.120
No. Hah!

39:13.200 --> 39:14.120
Oh, you have!

39:14.200 --> 39:16.359
Oh my God, there's more than one set!

39:18.200 --> 39:19.640
The reason I've got them is because

39:19.720 --> 39:22.359
sometimes my baton holder
falls off my kit belt.

39:22.440 --> 39:23.440
Hold on, hold on.

39:23.520 --> 39:25.760
The reason you've got them is because why?

39:25.839 --> 39:27.720
My baton holder
sometimes falls off my kit belt.

39:27.799 --> 39:32.839
Your baton holder…
sometimes falls off your kit belt?

39:32.920 --> 39:34.720
Is that what you just said?

39:38.120 --> 39:40.440
Fucking hell!
Are you one of the Chuckle Brothers?

39:42.480 --> 39:44.480
Wh… Whoo!

39:47.160 --> 39:48.120
Are you… are you…

39:48.200 --> 39:50.080
Are you really police?

39:50.160 --> 39:52.200
Or do you just
"work at the police station"?

39:53.000 --> 39:54.799
-I really am.
-You're really police.

39:54.880 --> 39:57.440
What's your… grade?

39:57.520 --> 39:58.960
-What's the…
-Rank.

39:59.040 --> 40:00.359
Thank you! Thank you!

40:00.440 --> 40:03.160
We'll cut that bit out.
You won't get a credit. Sorry.

40:05.480 --> 40:07.120
Hey, what's your rank?

40:07.880 --> 40:09.720
-What's your rank?
-PC.

40:09.799 --> 40:11.760
PC. Aww. Um…

40:11.839 --> 40:12.880
It's not very…

40:16.440 --> 40:17.960
Now you know…

40:18.040 --> 40:20.920
Now you're in a room of people
who are laughing at you.

40:21.000 --> 40:22.720
"Whoo! Ooh!" Things falling off.

40:22.799 --> 40:25.040
Now you know why you haven't progressed.

40:27.799 --> 40:30.520
I feel so awful.
He's got such a nice face.

40:30.600 --> 40:33.359
And someone…
"That's how they lure you in!"

40:33.880 --> 40:35.160
-I'm…
-Say again?

40:35.240 --> 40:36.920
I'm waiting for my sergeant's promotion.

40:37.000 --> 40:39.080
-You're waiting for promotion.
-Aww!

40:39.160 --> 40:40.720
Don't clap!

40:40.799 --> 40:42.760
He's gonna drop his baton.

40:44.280 --> 40:47.160
Isn't it a good job
we're not allowed guns here?

40:47.799 --> 40:49.880
You'd have no toes, would you, flower?

40:55.200 --> 40:57.560
I love… I love that.
What was your original answer?

40:57.640 --> 41:00.000
I've forgotten 'cause I've asked you
too many extra questions.

41:00.080 --> 41:01.440
-Cable ties.
-Cable ties!

41:01.520 --> 41:03.200
Why have you got cable ties?

41:03.839 --> 41:06.600
To secure the baton holder to my belt.

41:08.120 --> 41:10.280
Why does it keep falling off, though?
I don't understand.

41:10.359 --> 41:12.760
Sorry. It doesn't normally take this long.
Sorry.

41:13.280 --> 41:14.880
Just they buy us shit ones.

41:14.960 --> 41:17.560
They buy shit ones.

41:19.000 --> 41:21.000
On the upside, though,
I've still got a pocket

41:21.080 --> 41:24.080
that I can put my Vicks in
for when I'm dealing with dead bodies.

41:26.680 --> 41:31.560
Did you just say, "On the upside, I've
still got a pocket to put my Vicks in"?

41:32.480 --> 41:34.160
Jar, or…

41:34.240 --> 41:35.680
-No, jar.
-Jar.

41:35.760 --> 41:37.440
Classic. Original.

41:37.520 --> 41:39.600
The OG. I like it!

41:41.920 --> 41:45.440
Are you a police constable locally?

41:45.520 --> 41:46.560
No. Good.

41:48.839 --> 41:52.160
You're all safe. Keep your wedge in.
But you're all safe.

41:52.240 --> 41:54.359
Round of applause
for the cable ties. Thank you.

41:54.440 --> 41:56.640
That was very fun indeed.

42:00.520 --> 42:02.160
Let me tell you one
of my favorite answers.

42:02.240 --> 42:05.120
I was in York, and a lady
right this side of the front row,

42:05.200 --> 42:07.600
I said, "What's the most unusual thing
you have in your bag?"

42:07.680 --> 42:11.480
Lady on this side of the front row said,
"Stilton cheese."

42:12.000 --> 42:13.240
And I said, "Is it wrapped?"

42:13.319 --> 42:16.040
And the man behind her said,
"Not well enough."

42:21.000 --> 42:22.960
I chatted to her.
She was funny, I liked her a lot.

42:23.040 --> 42:26.200
I said, "Can I ask what's the real reason
you've got Stilton cheese in your bag?"

42:26.280 --> 42:27.839
She said, "It's for medical reasons."

42:27.920 --> 42:30.359
I was like,
"That's clearly bullshit, right?"

42:30.880 --> 42:33.080
So I said, "Have we got
any doctors and nurses in?"

42:33.160 --> 42:35.680
Loads of people went, "Yeah."
I said, "Is there any medical reason

42:35.760 --> 42:37.880
why that lady would have
Stilton cheese in her bag?"

42:37.960 --> 42:39.560
And they all went, "No!"

42:39.640 --> 42:42.200
Apart from one lady on this side
of the front row gave me a wave.

42:42.280 --> 42:45.600
I said, "What do you do?" She said,
"I'm a dermatologist. In my opinion…"

42:45.680 --> 42:47.440
I'm thinking,
"Ooh, proper medical opinion."

42:47.520 --> 42:48.720
She said, "In my opinion,

42:48.799 --> 42:52.280
the only reason that lady would
have Stilton cheese in her handbag

42:52.359 --> 42:54.400
is to mask the smell of her fanny."

43:03.120 --> 43:07.280
But, like, they were in the same row!
Like, they could see each other!

43:08.760 --> 43:11.080
And I think in another crowd
there might've been a fight,

43:11.160 --> 43:12.839
but because it was my lovely audience,

43:12.920 --> 43:14.760
the cheese lady just leant forward
and she went,

43:14.839 --> 43:16.600
"She's probably right, it is a bit pongy."

43:21.520 --> 43:23.760
I had to take my dad
for a hospital appointment recently.

43:23.839 --> 43:24.960
We're in the waiting area.

43:25.040 --> 43:27.240
The whole time,
I was putting antibac on my dad's hands.

43:27.319 --> 43:29.040
Antibac on his hands,
antibac on his hands.

43:29.120 --> 43:30.799
At one point, he looked down at his hands,

43:30.880 --> 43:34.319
and he went,
"When I die, these'll still be alive."

43:36.000 --> 43:38.200
They told us we had
to put latex gloves on his hands.

43:38.280 --> 43:40.400
They had a dispenser on the wall,
small, medium, large.

43:40.480 --> 43:42.560
My dad's got proper
sort of dad meat-shovel hands

43:42.640 --> 43:44.040
so obviously, I go for the large.

43:44.120 --> 43:46.640
I'm really struggling to get his hands
in them, really struggling.

43:46.720 --> 43:48.520
It gave me flashbacks of last November

43:48.600 --> 43:52.240
when I was in John Lewis trying
to get leather gloves for my hands,

43:52.319 --> 43:56.000
and the lady on the counter said,
"Sorry, they just don't come that big."

43:57.000 --> 43:59.240
Fuck off. Cows are massive.

44:06.440 --> 44:09.200
But I'm really struggling to get these
latex gloves on my dad's hands.

44:09.280 --> 44:10.720
At one point, he stopped me and went,

44:10.799 --> 44:12.560
"I never had this bother with Durex."

44:12.640 --> 44:13.760
Aaargh!

44:16.040 --> 44:18.440
But because this is my job,
I automatically went,

44:18.520 --> 44:21.879
"No, Dad, you should say,
'I always had this bother with Durex.'"

44:21.960 --> 44:24.280
I made his joke better, his cock bigger,

44:24.359 --> 44:26.720
and it was harrowing for both of us.

44:30.520 --> 44:32.799
I've got a friend who's through
her menopause, she's done,

44:32.879 --> 44:34.600
on the other side,
she's having a great time.

44:34.680 --> 44:36.879
There'll be women in this room
going through menopause,

44:36.960 --> 44:38.080
women in their perimenopause,

44:38.160 --> 44:40.040
there'll be women all done
on the other side.

44:40.120 --> 44:43.120
There'll also be women like me who are
still bleeding every fucking month.

44:43.200 --> 44:45.240
When is it my fucking turn?

44:45.319 --> 44:47.440
-Yeah!
-Sick of this shit.

44:47.960 --> 44:50.960
I've even got a period app on my phone.
Anybody else got a period app?

44:51.040 --> 44:53.640
-Yes!
-Fucking useless, aren't they?

44:53.720 --> 44:57.120
Yeah, do you remember when we used
to just write a P in our diaries?

44:57.640 --> 44:59.600
"No one will crack the code."

45:03.600 --> 45:05.799
"Even if I do it in a red pen."

45:08.280 --> 45:11.319
Period app needs a lot of information,
asks a lot of questions,

45:11.400 --> 45:14.280
in order for it to come out
with a fairly inaccurate calculation

45:14.359 --> 45:16.200
of when my next period is due.

45:16.280 --> 45:18.200
Some of the questions
I find quite baffling.

45:18.280 --> 45:21.680
Uh, one of the questions it asks is,
"What kind of sex are you having?"

45:22.200 --> 45:25.359
And I'm like, "What room?
What hole? Narrow it down."

45:26.240 --> 45:29.680
Two answers to choose from.
Unprotected and protected.

45:29.760 --> 45:33.120
The symbol for unprotected is flip-flops.

45:33.200 --> 45:35.240
What?

45:39.240 --> 45:41.280
The symbol for protected is wellies.

45:41.359 --> 45:43.480
What's happening?

45:45.120 --> 45:48.480
Are you asking if I've had sex or
if I've been to Glastonbury? I don't know.

45:49.879 --> 45:52.160
Another much more reasonable
question for a period app

45:52.240 --> 45:54.680
is, "How heavy is your flow?"
Much more reasonable.

45:54.760 --> 45:57.160
Four answers to choose from
for "How heavy is your flow?"

45:57.240 --> 45:58.319
Light, medium, heavy,

45:58.400 --> 45:59.520
and chunks.

46:03.440 --> 46:05.280
It's a great response.
Some people are laughing.

46:05.359 --> 46:06.640
Some people are groaning.

46:06.720 --> 46:09.359
Some of the women are going,
"She's right, it's true."

46:11.280 --> 46:14.240
The other night, we had a man right
in the middle downstairs, went like this.

46:14.319 --> 46:16.319
"Urgh!"

46:17.080 --> 46:18.960
Fucking pussy.

46:22.040 --> 46:24.080
But I'm diligent.
I answer all the questions,

46:24.160 --> 46:27.200
and then it'll sort of buffer,
like the fanny calculator's thinking.

46:28.080 --> 46:30.960
And it'll say, "Your next period
is due in four days."

46:31.040 --> 46:34.000
And I go, "Guess again, bitch,"
and I show my phone my gusset.

46:36.240 --> 46:38.839
Anybody else keep a sanitary towel on
for longer than they should

46:38.920 --> 46:40.440
just 'cause it's comfy?

46:41.680 --> 46:44.799
But it's like a memory foam mattress
for your fanny.

46:46.799 --> 46:48.359
That's right!

46:49.560 --> 46:52.040
But my friend who's through her menopause,
she told me something.

46:52.120 --> 46:54.600
I don't think this is common knowledge.
I hadn't heard it before.

46:54.680 --> 46:56.920
She told me that
when you're through your menopause,

46:57.000 --> 46:58.040
all done and dusted,

46:58.120 --> 47:01.160
DFS send you a free white sofa.

47:07.640 --> 47:09.960
She was showing it off.
She said, "Do you like my sofa?"

47:10.040 --> 47:12.200
I said, "It's lovely."
She said, "You wanna sit on it?"

47:12.280 --> 47:14.520
I'd started my period.
I was like, "No." She went, "Go on!"

47:14.600 --> 47:16.200
I said, "No, thanks." She went, "Go on!"

47:16.280 --> 47:19.160
I said, "Look, unless you want that
to look like a Japanese fucking flag,

47:19.240 --> 47:20.960
I'd leave it be if I were you."

47:26.680 --> 47:28.680
She said, "Do you want a towel to sit on?"

47:28.760 --> 47:31.359
I said, "Hold on a minute,"
and I brought an Ibis hotel bath mat.

47:31.440 --> 47:33.200
Worked a fucking treat.

47:38.560 --> 47:40.000
I've never had a bikini wax.

47:40.080 --> 47:42.799
I've got a friend who's only had
bikini waxes, for decades and decades.

47:42.879 --> 47:44.319
That's what she prefers. Fair enough.

47:44.400 --> 47:47.560
She told me she likes how clean it makes
her feel. Nice reason. I like that a lot.

47:47.640 --> 47:50.319
She also told me in confidence…
In confidence!

47:50.400 --> 47:53.280
I didn't say her name. Did I?

47:53.359 --> 47:55.000
No. Claire. No, good.

47:56.480 --> 47:58.359
She told me in confidence
it gets very cold

47:58.440 --> 47:59.879
in her knickers in the winter months.

47:59.960 --> 48:01.720
I've offered…
I'm still waiting to hear back,

48:01.799 --> 48:04.520
but I said, "I could make
you a little wig out of my trimmings."

48:07.560 --> 48:09.480
It's a nice offer from a friend, isn't it?

48:11.080 --> 48:13.640
But the truth is, however
you have your fanny is the right way.

48:13.720 --> 48:16.000
There's no wrong way.
That's the glory of fannies.

48:16.080 --> 48:19.640
I tend to follow
in a family tradition, of sorts.

48:22.240 --> 48:24.040
As my old grandma used to say,

48:24.120 --> 48:26.319
if your fanny was supposed
to be neat and tidy,

48:26.400 --> 48:27.920
it'd be on your forehead.

48:40.160 --> 48:44.040
I found some old school reports
from when I was about 12 or 13.

48:44.120 --> 48:47.520
I thought, "Wonder if there's anything
in here that would shed any light

48:47.600 --> 48:51.440
on why I was quite so quiet as a child
or why I'm quite so noisy now."

48:51.520 --> 48:54.080
Let me read you some bits
from my school reports.

48:54.640 --> 48:55.839
Here we go.

48:55.920 --> 48:58.400
"The presentation of her written work
could be neater,

48:58.480 --> 49:00.520
but the content is always
well worth reading."

49:00.600 --> 49:03.040
That's basically saying
I should talk for a living, I think.

49:03.720 --> 49:05.879
"She has a tendency to daydream slightly,

49:05.960 --> 49:09.640
but this hasn't prevented her from
obtaining a satisfactory exam result."

49:09.720 --> 49:14.680
Maybe I was thinking and not daydreaming,
Mrs. fucking Cook, you stupid fucking cow.

49:19.280 --> 49:22.680
And I haven't changed her name
'cause she's almost definitely dead.

49:23.640 --> 49:24.799
Yay!

49:28.200 --> 49:29.480
This is a bit left field.

49:29.560 --> 49:32.680
"She has a good grasp
of the principles of choreography."

49:32.760 --> 49:34.600
No, she fucking doesn't.

49:35.200 --> 49:39.080
Next you're gonna tell me she's good at
skiing that she's definitely never done.

49:39.160 --> 49:42.240
Now, you know you had your form teacher
every day for the whole year.

49:42.319 --> 49:44.640
Not for very long every day,
but every day nevertheless.

49:44.720 --> 49:47.440
In this particular school report,
there was only space for one line.

49:47.520 --> 49:49.879
They could only sum that kid up
in one line. That's so hard.

49:49.960 --> 49:52.080
They watched that kid grow
as a student, as a person.

49:52.160 --> 49:53.960
How on earth to distill
all that information

49:54.040 --> 49:56.600
you've learnt over that whole year
down into just one sentence?

49:56.680 --> 49:57.879
That's so tricky.

49:58.400 --> 50:00.920
Turns out not that tricky at all.

50:01.440 --> 50:02.680
"She put a lot of effort

50:02.760 --> 50:04.480
into selling raffle tickets."

50:10.560 --> 50:11.960
For PE, It was just grades.

50:12.040 --> 50:15.879
Grades for the sports that you did,
and your behavior, your qualities as well.

50:15.960 --> 50:17.200
Here we go. PE.

50:17.280 --> 50:18.680
"Effort, A."

50:18.760 --> 50:21.640
I like that they acknowledge that,
even though I was shit at all of it,

50:21.720 --> 50:24.359
it was clearly the best I could do.

50:24.960 --> 50:27.040
"PE kit, A. Confidence, C."

50:27.120 --> 50:29.399
"Leadership, C." That rings true for me.

50:29.480 --> 50:30.720
"Rounders, C."

50:30.799 --> 50:32.680
"Badminton, B." Oh!

50:34.200 --> 50:35.640
"Netball, yes."

50:38.120 --> 50:41.120
I love it. It's like the teacher was
going, "I remember she was there."

50:41.200 --> 50:45.200
Yeah. She was putting the balls back in
the cupboard at the end, you stupid cow.

50:46.640 --> 50:49.839
If you do happen to have any of your old
school reports knocking around at home,

50:49.920 --> 50:53.040
dig them out, go through them,
get yourself a glass of wine.

50:53.120 --> 50:56.560
It's so cathartic to judge the people
who once judged you.

50:56.640 --> 50:58.839
You remember a lot more
than you think you will, as well.

50:58.920 --> 51:01.680
You end up going through it like,
"She was a legend. He was a legend."

51:01.760 --> 51:03.240
"She's dead. Oh, that's a shame."

51:04.319 --> 51:06.040
"He's dead. That's not a shame."

51:06.879 --> 51:08.520
"Nonce, nonce, nonce."

51:12.319 --> 51:17.399
And finally, "Sarah needs to develop more
self-confidence in her practical skills."

51:17.480 --> 51:20.920
That was in Home Economics.
I know exactly what that's referring to.

51:21.000 --> 51:24.960
There was a day we had to make breakfast.
Kids cooking sausages and poaching eggs.

51:25.040 --> 51:27.200
And I just did Frosties.

51:37.480 --> 51:39.120
I, uh… I don't like women's magazines.

51:39.200 --> 51:41.359
Haven't liked women's magazines
for a long time.

51:41.440 --> 51:43.399
I think women's magazines are damaging.

51:43.480 --> 51:45.799
I think they're bullshit.
I think they can fuck off.

51:45.879 --> 51:47.839
Oh, thanks.

51:49.799 --> 51:51.920
But every now and again,
one's just put in front of you,

51:52.000 --> 51:53.560
at the hairdresser's, the dentist's.

51:53.640 --> 51:56.359
Sometimes I think, "I'll see
what they think women do these days."

51:56.440 --> 51:58.680
And the last one I looked at
was an older-lady magazine.

51:58.760 --> 52:00.680
So it still had Position of the Fortnight,

52:00.760 --> 52:03.319
but it was just sitting down
having a cup of tea.

52:05.760 --> 52:09.120
They had an interview with a really
powerful, impressive, successful woman,

52:09.200 --> 52:13.879
but the questions they asked her
were so vacuous that it boiled my piss.

52:15.120 --> 52:18.280
I made a list of those questions,
and I'm gonna answer them for you now.

52:18.359 --> 52:21.560
Here we go. Question number one
"How do you feel about getting older?"

52:21.640 --> 52:23.799
Controversial, this. I quite like it.

52:23.879 --> 52:26.960
I like how I look, I like how I feel,
and I point-blank refuse

52:27.040 --> 52:30.240
to feel ashamed
for looking my fucking age.

52:30.319 --> 52:31.640
Thanks.

52:35.359 --> 52:37.280
"How do you stay in such great shape?"

52:37.359 --> 52:38.680
I eat loads.

52:42.480 --> 52:43.920
"Any plans to go under the knife?"

52:44.000 --> 52:46.680
No, I plan on going under the fork.

52:49.319 --> 52:50.960
"What's your relationship with your hair?"

52:51.040 --> 52:54.080
These are genuine questions.
"What's your relationship with your hair?"

52:54.160 --> 52:55.960
I use so much dry shampoo,

52:56.040 --> 52:57.920
I can't always get my knickers on.

52:58.440 --> 53:00.040
Humph!

53:03.000 --> 53:05.000
"Would you take your child for a facial?"

53:05.080 --> 53:07.760
No, because it would get
all matted in his fur. Aw.

53:09.799 --> 53:12.080
If you're home alone, what would you do?

53:12.160 --> 53:14.480
I'd rewatch season one of Bridgerton,

53:14.560 --> 53:16.879
wank myself off, and have a Twix.

53:23.040 --> 53:27.080
Still the best series, isn't it?
Especially episodes five and seven.

53:29.799 --> 53:32.280
"And finally,
what are your style secrets?"

53:32.359 --> 53:34.920
I have three pairs of leggings,
and I sniffed all three

53:35.000 --> 53:38.760
to see which smell the least of piss
to wear for you tonight!

53:47.080 --> 53:50.520
I think, to sum up, through the process
of pulling together stories of me as a kid

53:50.600 --> 53:52.600
and stories about me now,
I've come to the conclusion

53:52.680 --> 53:55.120
that I haven't really changed
very much at all.

53:55.200 --> 53:57.680
A lot of things about me
are exactly the same.

53:57.760 --> 53:59.560
Like, I still love cress.

54:00.440 --> 54:02.480
I still slightly love Jason Donovan.

54:03.879 --> 54:05.399
I still eat a lot of satsumas.

54:05.480 --> 54:07.680
They don't call them that these days.
They call them easy…

54:07.760 --> 54:09.240
-What is it, easy…
-Peelers.

54:09.319 --> 54:10.960
Chocolate Oranges, that's right.

54:17.200 --> 54:20.200
I still haven't been skiing. That woman
is determined it was a skiing trip.

54:20.280 --> 54:22.760
There is a small possibility
that I went on the skiing trip,

54:22.839 --> 54:24.080
just didn't do any skiing.

54:24.160 --> 54:28.480
Just stood at the side and then put
the skis back in the cupboard at the end.

54:29.240 --> 54:32.240
I still haven't been fingered
on a New Year's Eve!

54:32.319 --> 54:35.000
Join in if you know it. No? Uh…

54:35.520 --> 54:36.680
Still can't shower in public.

54:36.760 --> 54:38.680
I went on a spa weekend
with a couple of friends.

54:38.760 --> 54:40.560
They're lovely women,
but they're those people,

54:40.640 --> 54:43.080
like, "I'm just really comfortable
with my body." Those people?

54:43.160 --> 54:44.799
"I'm just really comfortable
with my body."

54:44.879 --> 54:46.240
What's the name for them?

54:46.319 --> 54:47.879
-Twats.
-Twats!

54:52.879 --> 54:54.960
The word I was looking for was confident!

54:55.040 --> 54:56.680
But sure, let's go…

54:58.040 --> 54:59.839
Let's go with twats.

54:59.920 --> 55:02.600
They'd walk past all the private cubicles,
just drying themselves

55:02.680 --> 55:05.160
in front of the sinks,
in front of everybody, just drying,

55:05.240 --> 55:06.640
chatting away to each other.

55:06.720 --> 55:10.399
And I'm trying to join their conversation
through a wooden slatted door.

55:11.760 --> 55:13.319
That I'd brought from home.

55:18.080 --> 55:22.560
But while I was quiet, almost invisible to
some at school, I was different at home.

55:22.640 --> 55:24.520
Much more myself at home.
I was happy at home.

55:24.600 --> 55:26.640
I was confident at home.
I was funny at home,

55:26.720 --> 55:30.120
around the kitchen table, in front
of my mam and my dad and my sister.

55:30.200 --> 55:32.399
I think the main difference
between me then and me now

55:32.480 --> 55:35.120
is that my kitchen table
just got a lot fucking bigger.

55:35.200 --> 55:37.280
I wish I could go back
to that 12-year-old me.

55:37.359 --> 55:39.399
First of all,
I'd be like, "Keep that blazer."

55:39.480 --> 55:43.040
"You'll really blend in when you work
in the Jobcentre in your 20s."

55:43.560 --> 55:45.359
I'd love to go back
to that 12-year-old me.

55:45.440 --> 55:47.879
I'd love to be able to say
"Don't you worry about that bully."

55:47.960 --> 55:50.960
"'Cause first of all,
she doesn't matter, right?"

55:51.040 --> 55:52.000
Yes.

55:52.080 --> 55:55.200
"And secondly, in 37 years' time,
I'm going to travel the world

55:55.280 --> 55:58.240
and tell everybody what
an absolute fucking bitch she was."

56:05.799 --> 56:08.560
The only sex advice my mam ever gave me,

56:08.640 --> 56:11.879
she said, "Remember, you don't have to put
anything in your mouth you don't want to."

56:13.359 --> 56:15.440
Which is why I'm fat
and my husband is sad.

56:22.359 --> 56:26.280
Let me tell you one more thing. Has
anybody seen the TV program Open House?

56:26.359 --> 56:27.319
-Yes.
-Yeah.

56:27.399 --> 56:29.839
If you haven't, you could be forgiven
from the title Open House,

56:29.920 --> 56:31.240
for thinking it's a property show.

56:31.319 --> 56:34.560
It's not a property show.
It's a Channel 4 sex documentary.

56:34.640 --> 56:35.680
It's not a property show.

56:35.760 --> 56:39.560
It's not like Phil and Kirstie's
Erection, Erection, Erection.

56:40.560 --> 56:42.760
Homes Under the Helmet.

56:44.280 --> 56:46.120
Escape to the Cunt.

56:49.440 --> 56:51.080
It's a Channel 4 sex documentary.

56:51.160 --> 56:52.680
What happens in Open House is a couple,

56:52.760 --> 56:55.160
usually a heterosexual couple,
will enter the Open House,

56:55.240 --> 56:57.520
which is full
of sexually liberated people,

56:57.600 --> 57:00.399
with the idea they'll open up
their relationship, have some group sex,

57:00.480 --> 57:02.600
experiment in various different ways.

57:02.680 --> 57:06.480
What it often is is a woman
who's a former slag and misses it

57:07.760 --> 57:10.359
and a man who's trying
to keep his marriage together.

57:10.440 --> 57:13.000
It's really quite romantic.

57:14.560 --> 57:16.399
The best one I've seen…
I watch it just for you,

57:16.480 --> 57:18.440
for research purposes, you understand.

57:18.960 --> 57:21.520
The best one I've seen
is a couple exactly as I described

57:21.600 --> 57:23.600
decide, in their wisdom,
instead of having a foursome

57:23.680 --> 57:25.279
just them and another couple,

57:25.359 --> 57:29.759
they decide to have an orgy with everybody
else who's in the Open House at that time.

57:29.839 --> 57:31.720
They walk into a room, which is dimly lit

57:31.799 --> 57:34.359
'cause some people
know how to light a room for sex.

57:35.440 --> 57:37.319
And they're confronted
with just a pile of people

57:37.399 --> 57:39.120
who've already started without them

57:39.200 --> 57:41.440
They're all, "Aaah! Uhhh!"

57:41.520 --> 57:43.319
"Ooh! Eeeh!"

57:49.240 --> 57:51.960
One clown in there,
having the time of his fucking life.

57:56.240 --> 57:59.440
The woman in the couple immediately starts
going down on another woman,

57:59.520 --> 58:01.680
just, "Nom, nom, nom, nom, nom, nom, nom!"

58:01.759 --> 58:03.720
That's not the right sound, is it?

58:05.040 --> 58:06.919
I've never done that,
but I've had it done to me,

58:07.000 --> 58:08.799
and I would not mind that sound at all.

58:08.879 --> 58:11.080
"Nom, nom, nom, nom, nom, nom, nom!"

58:12.919 --> 58:16.200
You know, like when
somebody's having corn on the cob? Yeah.

58:19.799 --> 58:22.359
So she's going down on this other lady,
having a lovely time.

58:22.440 --> 58:24.120
The man is standing…

58:27.120 --> 58:29.120
looking for an in.

58:30.799 --> 58:33.520
It's one of the saddest things
I think I've ever seen on television.

58:33.600 --> 58:36.480
It reminded me… You know before Christmas,
when you do your last food shop,

58:36.560 --> 58:39.399
and you're driving
round the car park looking for a space?

58:39.480 --> 58:41.359
It reminded me of that
'cause he was like this.

58:45.560 --> 58:47.759
"Is he pulling out? Is he pulling out?"

58:54.240 --> 58:56.480
"No, he's just straightening up."

58:58.120 --> 59:00.799
You've been amazing. Thank you so much.
Lots of love. Goodnight.

59:00.879 --> 59:03.520
Thank you very much! Thank you very much.

59:03.600 --> 59:06.720
Thank you very much!

59:07.319 --> 59:08.279
Bye!

59:39.399 --> 59:41.160
Woo-hoo!
very much!
