19
00:01:02,120 --> 00:01:03,400
Speaker 3: just melted.

00:01:03,800 --> 00:01:07,440
Speaker 4: So you've got an addictive personality apart from the big farmer.

21
00:01:07,560 --> 00:01:09,680
Speaker 2: Is there anything else that you're addicted to at the moment?

22
00:01:09,720 --> 00:01:11,320
Speaker 2: Are you are you a sugar freak? Or are you

23
00:01:11,440 --> 00:01:12,679
Speaker 2: are there anything else?

24
00:01:13,360 --> 00:01:17,800
Speaker 3: Look, I gave up coke, no problem. I gave up Booze,

00:01:18,160 --> 00:01:23,400
Speaker 3: No problem. I gave up Heroin, No problem. Chocolate has

26
00:01:23,480 --> 00:01:29,880
Speaker 3: me by the balls, chocolate, sugar, candy, sweets. I'm addicted

27
00:01:29,920 --> 00:01:31,560
Speaker 3: to sugar and screens.

28
00:01:31,920 --> 00:01:33,840
Speaker 4: So you're in South Africa at the moment. We've just

29
00:01:33,880 --> 00:01:36,319
Speaker 4: had our dice. We're talking of addiction. We just had

30
00:01:36,319 --> 00:01:39,080
Speaker 4: our dose of Robbie Williams. She played at fid Square

31
00:01:39,160 --> 00:01:41,160
Speaker 4: and our New Year's Eve.

32
00:01:41,080 --> 00:01:43,440
Speaker 2: So we got a little bit of Robbie. Have you

33
00:01:43,480 --> 00:01:46,480
Speaker 2: bought some real estate down Robbie? You know, like you

34
00:01:46,560 --> 00:01:48,600
Speaker 2: need to come down here and have a holiday at home.

35
00:01:49,320 --> 00:01:54,880
Speaker 3: Mate. Me and the wife contemplate it on the regular

36
00:01:55,440 --> 00:01:59,400
Speaker 3: and we always come too the same conclusion, which is heartbreaking.

37
00:02:00,240 --> 00:02:02,840
Speaker 1: All of my job requires.

38
00:02:02,280 --> 00:02:05,760
Speaker 3: Me to be in Europe, and like when you go, okay,

39
00:02:05,840 --> 00:02:08,560
Speaker 3: rob we need you to be in Paris for two courts.

40
00:02:09,360 --> 00:02:13,240
Speaker 3: You need in Austria for the afternoon, and then you

41
00:02:13,280 --> 00:02:15,560
Speaker 3: can go home for three days and spend three days

42
00:02:15,560 --> 00:02:19,120
Speaker 3: with your family before you then go to Spain. Doing

43
00:02:19,200 --> 00:02:23,320
Speaker 3: all of that from the golf or doing all of

44
00:02:23,360 --> 00:02:28,200
Speaker 3: that from Melbourne just becomes impossible, and it is heartbreaking

45
00:02:28,280 --> 00:02:33,400
Speaker 3: because me and my wife adore Australia and I'm sure

46
00:02:33,440 --> 00:02:35,800
Speaker 3: that's going to be when the kids grow up, a

47
00:02:35,880 --> 00:02:37,120
Speaker 3: place for us there.

48
00:02:37,880 --> 00:02:39,040
Speaker 1: I'm pretty certain of it.

49
00:02:39,560 --> 00:02:42,800
Speaker 4: Talking of your your kids, I think one of the

50
00:02:42,880 --> 00:02:48,160
Speaker 4: greatest moments in Robbie Williams the Netflix documentary was watching

51
00:02:48,440 --> 00:02:52,280
Speaker 4: Teddy and Sing and the intrigue that she had with

52
00:02:52,400 --> 00:02:56,600
Speaker 4: Daddy and wanting to learn more about your life when

53
00:02:56,720 --> 00:02:59,040
Speaker 4: Better Man came out. Did the whole family get to

54
00:02:59,040 --> 00:03:01,120
Speaker 4: sit down and watch this movie we dead?

55
00:03:01,400 --> 00:03:05,000
Speaker 2: Or you've held them back on certain areas, or.

56
00:03:05,280 --> 00:03:08,040
Speaker 3: Teddy has watched it, but she's barely old enough to

57
00:03:08,080 --> 00:03:11,880
Speaker 3: watch it. The other kids are way too young to

58
00:03:11,919 --> 00:03:16,160
Speaker 3: be put through that. My oldest is deeply in love

59
00:03:16,240 --> 00:03:20,560
Speaker 3: with me and also just thinks that I am a

60
00:03:20,680 --> 00:03:25,919
Speaker 3: dinosaur that's doing its best our bless him.

61
00:03:26,040 --> 00:03:28,120
Speaker 1: She's like, very much of that are bless him.

62
00:03:28,400 --> 00:03:32,320
Speaker 3: Like I did a duet with Taylor Swift and Teddy.

63
00:03:32,400 --> 00:03:36,200
Speaker 3: My daughter loves Taylor Swift so much and thought that

64
00:03:36,280 --> 00:03:38,760
Speaker 3: she was doing a Make a Wish Foundation thing for

65
00:03:38,800 --> 00:03:39,280
Speaker 3: a dad.

66
00:03:40,640 --> 00:03:43,120
Speaker 1: She's just like, ah, the old fella.

67
00:03:43,640 --> 00:03:46,520
Speaker 4: She's going to be a superstar a celfo. What a

68
00:03:46,560 --> 00:03:49,160
Speaker 4: gorgeous voice? Have you had her on stage yet? Robbie,

69
00:03:49,200 --> 00:03:52,119
Speaker 4: with you performing here's the thing.

70
00:03:52,280 --> 00:03:53,080
Speaker 1: I was gone to.

71
00:03:53,440 --> 00:03:56,760
Speaker 3: And then there were a couple of very high celebrities

72
00:03:56,760 --> 00:03:59,680
Speaker 3: that had the kids on stage and the internet just

73
00:04:00,120 --> 00:04:03,760
Speaker 3: for them apart. You know, you've got your Blue Ivs

74
00:04:03,840 --> 00:04:06,440
Speaker 3: and your Northwest that went up and did their thing.

75
00:04:06,600 --> 00:04:09,920
Speaker 3: And it was just like, I can't subject to to this.

76
00:04:10,600 --> 00:04:14,200
Speaker 3: If this goes badly, it would break and crush her

77
00:04:14,240 --> 00:04:17,320
Speaker 3: spirit before a spirit has even got time to get

78
00:04:17,320 --> 00:04:20,880
Speaker 3: its pants on. I also want that moment with my daughter,

79
00:04:21,320 --> 00:04:23,719
Speaker 3: and she's a bigger character than me.

80
00:04:24,200 --> 00:04:24,400
Speaker 4: Yeah.

81
00:04:24,440 --> 00:04:26,440
Speaker 2: Of course you talk about that.

82
00:04:26,480 --> 00:04:29,839
Speaker 4: The relationship with the Gallagher brothers in there as well, Robbie,

83
00:04:29,880 --> 00:04:32,200
Speaker 4: which which I find fascinating as well.

84
00:04:32,760 --> 00:04:34,920
Speaker 2: Have you had any feedback on that, Robbie?

85
00:04:34,920 --> 00:04:37,960
Speaker 4: Have you heard anything from them or did you I mean,

86
00:04:38,000 --> 00:04:40,040
Speaker 4: did you have to ask any of these people to

87
00:04:40,080 --> 00:04:43,120
Speaker 4: be in the story of your life in Better Man?

88
00:04:43,320 --> 00:04:45,080
Speaker 2: Or is this something that you just went ahead and

89
00:04:45,120 --> 00:04:45,760
Speaker 2: did yourself.

90
00:04:46,600 --> 00:04:50,400
Speaker 3: I made sure that nobody could sue me. And the

91
00:04:50,480 --> 00:04:52,680
Speaker 3: weird thing was, you know, there was a bunch of

92
00:04:52,680 --> 00:04:54,400
Speaker 3: people that I loved that are in the movie that

93
00:04:54,440 --> 00:04:57,520
Speaker 3: I had to send the script to, yes, and you know,

94
00:04:57,600 --> 00:05:00,679
Speaker 3: like Gary Barlow was sending to him and he phoned

95
00:05:00,680 --> 00:05:04,040
Speaker 3: me up and Rob, I come off worse than Darth

96
00:05:04,120 --> 00:05:08,400
Speaker 3: Vader in the first time or and I was like, ah,

97
00:05:08,440 --> 00:05:08,760
Speaker 3: So we.

98
00:05:08,920 --> 00:05:10,600
Speaker 1: Changed the script on behalf of him.

99
00:05:10,839 --> 00:05:12,640
Speaker 3: And then there were several people that we changed the

100
00:05:12,680 --> 00:05:16,560
Speaker 3: script on behalf of which only led the one hour

101
00:05:16,640 --> 00:05:18,000
Speaker 3: soul in the movie and it's me.

102
00:05:18,760 --> 00:05:21,320
Speaker 4: But yeah, I love how you have a relationship with

103
00:05:21,360 --> 00:05:23,920
Speaker 4: Gary where he can ring you and said, mate, can

104
00:05:23,960 --> 00:05:26,440
Speaker 4: you change a couple of things? And I love that

105
00:05:26,480 --> 00:05:28,440
Speaker 4: you can be honest with each other and do that.

106
00:05:28,560 --> 00:05:32,039
Speaker 4: Whereas Robbie ten fifteen years ago you were there's no

107
00:05:32,160 --> 00:05:33,960
Speaker 4: in the way, no way in the world you could

108
00:05:33,960 --> 00:05:34,880
Speaker 4: have done that with Gary.

109
00:05:35,440 --> 00:05:37,560
Speaker 3: No. But there's been a lot of healing and a

110
00:05:37,560 --> 00:05:40,760
Speaker 3: lot of sorting things out, and all there is now

111
00:05:40,920 --> 00:05:44,159
Speaker 3: is love, admiration and respect exactly.

112
00:05:44,600 --> 00:05:47,880
Speaker 4: All right, well, mate, congratulations on better Man. There is

113
00:05:48,040 --> 00:05:51,120
Speaker 4: talk that there may be a sequel. Robbie, if you

114
00:05:51,200 --> 00:05:54,160
Speaker 4: are looking for another monkey, I know we're talking at

115
00:05:54,200 --> 00:05:56,360
Speaker 4: you talking about your jabs that you're having before. But

116
00:05:56,440 --> 00:05:59,760
Speaker 4: Whipper is on some pretty heavy hair medication at the

117
00:05:59,800 --> 00:06:03,200
Speaker 4: moment moment, which makes the hair stronger on his head,

118
00:06:03,680 --> 00:06:06,520
Speaker 4: but unfortunately around the rest of the body. He has

119
00:06:06,600 --> 00:06:09,320
Speaker 4: hair on his triceps and his shoulders like it's out

120
00:06:09,360 --> 00:06:09,920
Speaker 4: of control.

121
00:06:09,960 --> 00:06:12,360
Speaker 2: I mean, his hair is looking magnificent on his head.

122
00:06:12,520 --> 00:06:16,320
Speaker 3: So Robbie, if you hold on't imagine this though, right,

123
00:06:16,320 --> 00:06:18,880
Speaker 3: because he's not taking care of these bits. But if

124
00:06:18,920 --> 00:06:22,880
Speaker 3: you can imagine, is ourshole must look like dreadlocks.

125
00:06:26,960 --> 00:06:28,920
Speaker 2: I'm sorry, sorry, we're going to have to wrap up.

126
00:06:30,560 --> 00:06:33,240
Speaker 2: How's the final line? I'm so sorry, We're gonna have
