Speaker 1: where I live. You don't live in Manchester? No, no,
Speaker 1: I sound like this, but I live in London. So
Speaker 1: this is this is fake. This is a just character bit,
Speaker 1: is it? Oh it's it's just a character this. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: I genuinely been I stop before. Yeah, yeah, so I did.
Speaker 1: I was like semifinal, so you think you're funny. Years
Speaker 1: ago in Edinburgh one of the judges came up to me,
Speaker 1: when are you a character? It was like, no, I'm
Speaker 1: a person. That's so. I mean it's a good character.
Speaker 1: I've really committed it, really committed committed to it. Yeah,
Speaker 1: you got for Landy cover on it. I respect. Now.
Speaker 1: You famously did a podcast for many years which just stopped.
Speaker 1: Now right, it's still going. It's still going. It never stops.
Speaker 1: It's been going for eight years. Never stopped. So sorry.
Speaker 1: I thought there was a threat if you stopping it.
Speaker 1: It never stopped. No, oh Kirie who I did the
Speaker 1: podcast within She did say one of the episodes, we're
Speaker 1: going to stop when we get to sixty nine as
Speaker 1: a joke, and then and then that sort of people panicked,
Speaker 1: which she kept doing, and I said, you gonna stop
Speaker 1: doing that because people are getting upset, which she continued
Speaker 1: with it. And now we're on episode eight or whatever
Speaker 1: it is. Well, I'm sorry to say that I took
Speaker 1: me having no sense of human took. They're very seriously
Speaker 1: stopped listening at you say this is what happens. I
Speaker 1: told yeah, yeah, Now your podcast is about serial killers, killers, yes, killing,
Speaker 1: true crime, murder. Why do you think there is such
Speaker 1: a desire for true crime stuff? Why is it so big?
Speaker 1: And particularly with women? If I may say, what's your theory?
Speaker 1: It's always been big? Though this is a thing like
Speaker 1: every so often you'll get asked to go on like
Speaker 1: a radio show, like I'd say, twice a year ago,
Speaker 1: I need someone to come on and talk about why
Speaker 1: true crime is so big, And it's like, well, it's
Speaker 1: always been big, because even if you think back to
Speaker 1: like say, even you know, people used to go to
Speaker 1: public executions, people used to enjoy, you know, reading about
Speaker 1: horrible murders in the Victorian days and stuff like that,
Speaker 1: even going further and further back. But true because I
Speaker 1: remember I've I was been into it when I was
Speaker 1: about thirteen or remember reading something that said and I
Speaker 1: was shocked at the time. It is, you know, women
Speaker 1: are the people who buy the most true crime books.
Speaker 1: I was like, I was like, oh, that's amazing. But
Speaker 1: then obviously, I think it's because men are out committing
Speaker 1: the crimes mainly, so they ain't time to read the books.
Speaker 1: It's busy doing them, and we're just like, like, we'll
Speaker 1: read about them. I just think because women. I think
Speaker 1: it's because women are less likely. I mean, obviously not
Speaker 1: all men are murderers, but I just think women are
Speaker 1: less likely to commit violent crime. So we fascinated by it.
Speaker 1: How many female serial killers are not that well, you
Speaker 1: tend to know who they are. So I mean, you've
Speaker 1: got Eiland were us, Yeah, shout out to Eileen. There's um,
Speaker 1: I mean obviously, then you've got Rose West and Marie Hindley,
Speaker 1: but they did it as a couple. There's Carla Homolka
Speaker 1: as well. Who's he committed crimes? I think it's a
Speaker 1: Canada and she did it as part of a couple.
Speaker 1: So women tend to do it in pairs rather than
Speaker 1: on their own. What does that tell us? Yeah? What
Speaker 1: does that tell that tells us a story? Doesn't do
Speaker 1: it too easily influenced? No, you just you just like
Speaker 1: a company while I was doing stuff. That's it. Yeah,
Speaker 1: also one to chat with that's really interesting and a
Speaker 1: great theory that men and that insustry grows there too
Speaker 1: busy doing it and they don't want to read up.
Speaker 1: Oh I don't want to read about what I did
Speaker 1: last night. You know what I mean? I did it. No,
Speaker 1: having a podcast that relies on history and stories and stuff,
Speaker 1: does it become a chore? Do you ever think, o, god,
Speaker 1: we're running out of fucking stuff? No, well, this is it.
Speaker 1: When we do live shows. We don't really do serial
Speaker 1: killers for the live show because it's too much and
Speaker 1: we've only got like ninety minutes or whatever. So we
Speaker 1: pick like an historical murder, or we'll pick something like
Speaker 1: the Craigswins, you know, something like that. But there is
Speaker 1: a lot of research goes into it, and I don't
Speaker 1: know it's it can get a bit boring, and you
Speaker 1: do it you I'm not. I'm genuinely asked, like you
Speaker 1: you two do the research? You don't? Oh? Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: yeah we do. We do everything that there was talk about. Oh,
Speaker 1: you know, to take the pressure off a bit. Do
Speaker 1: you want someone else to research? Absolutely not. No. If
Speaker 1: you don't do the research, you can't find the funny bits,
Speaker 1: which sounds stupid because it's about murders, but you know
Speaker 1: that's there's all the sort of you've got to find
Speaker 1: that springboard to the funny story that you're going to tell.
Speaker 1: So you can only do that from doing all the research.
Speaker 1: I love it. It's very committed, very committed. Do you
Speaker 1: ever go, Fuck, we've got another episode and I haven't
Speaker 1: done my home works? Well, do you know what? I'm
Speaker 1: really good? So I like, yesterday I sat and did
Speaker 1: about an hour and a half. I tied up all
Speaker 1: the notes and I sent it to Kiy like there
Speaker 1: you go, it's ready done. But I have another podcast
Speaker 1: now as well. I do one about ghosts. Oh please
Speaker 1: tell me everything about this. I'm banging into ghosts. I
Speaker 1: bang into ghosts, ghost and Tree grow, I see I
Speaker 1: love ghosts as well. So it's called Girl Guide and
Speaker 1: it's out now and it's six episodes and basically I
Speaker 1: got to go to haunted places around the UK and or,
Speaker 1: as one person on the internet pointed out, we didn't
Speaker 1: actually go to Northern Irelands. He didn't go to all
Speaker 1: of the UK, but we'll leave that. And I stayed
Speaker 1: at night and you know exactly name all the UK.
Speaker 1: Realize I don't know what it is. I went to
Speaker 1: England and Scotland there you go, and Wales there you go.
Speaker 1: Thank you? And yeah, so the premises, I get told
Speaker 1: three stories by a local storyteller about the location and
Speaker 1: I've got to decide which is the true one. Oh wow,
Speaker 1: have you seen a ghost? Oh well, I'm going to
Speaker 1: ruin the podcast now, But no, have you? Yes? Have you?
Speaker 1: I've talked about it a lot. I've experienced the post.
Speaker 1: It's another story you have to I've told this story
Speaker 1: too many times. I'm a friend to go into it
Speaker 1: with you. But okay, well you've got you can have
Speaker 1: to tell me where I can hear you talk about it.
Speaker 1: I'm all pro ghost post. Wow, but having done your podcast,
Speaker 1: do you think there are ghosts. Ye, see the things.
Speaker 1: I've been obsessed with goals since was a kid. It's
Speaker 1: pretty much all I engage with. Supernatural reading, spooky story,
Speaker 1: is any old ghost crap, I'll read it right. I'm
Speaker 1: into it. So I'm on the fence all the time.
Speaker 1: Sometimes I'm one hundred percent there are gods, and then
Speaker 1: sometimes I'm like, no, there's not. And then, you know,
Speaker 1: a couple of things happened when we're making a podcast
Speaker 1: that I was like, oh, this is spooky. This feels
Speaker 1: a bit odd. There's bad vibes here. But then you
Speaker 1: don't know. You might be getting in your own head.
Speaker 1: So have you had any experience that you would say
Speaker 1: is unexplained? Yes? So I used to live with my
Speaker 1: grandparents and when my grandma died, me and my mum
Speaker 1: the night before the funeral, was sitting in the living
Speaker 1: room at my grandma's house and we were just chatting.
Speaker 1: We're watching EastEnders. Don't get me wrong, we were grieving
Speaker 1: as well. We weren't, you know, we weren't just like
Speaker 1: Poppy standers on. And so then we watching it and
Speaker 1: cheer ourselves up. And I said, did you put the
Speaker 1: washing machine on? I almost said no, I was just
Speaker 1: going to ask you the same question, and a washing
Speaker 1: machine had just started going in kitchen where we were doing.
Speaker 1: Two people in the house, so I was like, that's weird.
Speaker 1: Al we thought it was a bit peculiar. About ten
Speaker 1: minutes later, the doorbell went. I went to the front door.
Speaker 1: There was nobody there, and there was no one on
Speaker 1: the road. There was nobody. It was if someone had
Speaker 1: a rung the doorbell, I would have would have seen them.
Speaker 1: And my mum does not believing anything supernatural whatsoever, but
Speaker 1: and I do an adult, you know, I sort of
Speaker 1: flip between two. But I think it was one of
Speaker 1: those things where maybe because there was heightened emotion in
Speaker 1: the house, and you know, I don't know. That's the
Speaker 1: only thing I can put it down to. Even though
Speaker 1: it was me Graham, Grandma. I put the washing on
Speaker 1: and then rang the doorbed and said, don't forget to
Speaker 1: take the washing out there, you go something like that.
Speaker 1: Although she did, I was threatened, like she's because she
Speaker 1: didn't believe in anything supernatural. She's to say, I would
Speaker 1: approved to you if there are ghosts when I die,
Speaker 1: I'm going to come back and I'm going to haunt you.
Speaker 1: I mean, she was lovely grand much was. I'm going
Speaker 1: to haunt you in the way you'll know that it's
Speaker 1: me is You'll be in bed one night and I'll
Speaker 1: grab your feet so I now can't sleep with my
Speaker 1: feet out of the bed. Wow. You know, I'm going
Speaker 1: to tell you somebody. I'm not going to say who
Speaker 1: this is because they're close to me. I hope it's
Speaker 1: so gay to tell. I'll just keep it as an
Speaker 1: anonymous person. I know their dad died when they were
Speaker 1: quite young, and they was so desperate to see their
Speaker 1: dad again that they prayed and prayed, please just let
Speaker 1: me see you again. And then their dad appeared at
Speaker 1: the end of their bed, and they were so scared
Speaker 1: they just they ran away. They screamed it right away,
Speaker 1: but like sort of and half regretted being so scared,
Speaker 1: you know what I mean. Anyway, Oh, wow, that's incredible
Speaker 1: in it it is and I think why not? Yeah,
Speaker 1: I think why not? I think yeah, I definitely think
Speaker 1: your grandma put the washing end. I mean it might
Speaker 1: have been the equivalent. It feels a bit passive aggressive
Speaker 1: from you. Was your name passive aggressive? She could be
Speaker 1: well I'll do this, shall I like pretty much. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: very much. So ding dong. I'll do the washing, shall
Speaker 1: I fascinating? I like all this. Well is the thing, Rachel,
Speaker 1: something I didn't that I'd forgotten to tell you, And
Speaker 1: it's very interesting in this particular case. You're dead. You're
Speaker 1: a ghost right now. You already died. You died, You're dead.
Speaker 1: Thank God. Well, to be honest with you, I do
Speaker 1: feel like I'm dying. I've got the worst sore throat
Speaker 1: and I feel like that kid at school, you know,
Speaker 1: like I was wiping its nose on it. I feel
Speaker 1: like that kid. But I am dead. How did you die?
Speaker 1: I'd like to thank you ro quickly. But I always
Speaker 1: think that I'll probably die in sort of some unfortunate accident,
Speaker 1: like someone on any scoot or hit me or you know,
Speaker 1: are always get that feeling because you're when you're on
Speaker 1: the tube or whatever at a train station. I always
Speaker 1: think someone will pushed me onto the tracks. I always
Speaker 1: think something like that. But that's how I'll go, And
Speaker 1: it will be one of them where I'm like, oh, no,
Speaker 1: not to day. Did you think it pissed you? Oh?
Speaker 1: Just a local nutter. Yeah, I didn't even know me.
Speaker 1: Just somebody thought, you know what out that it will
Speaker 1: be wrong place, wrong time. That's that. Yeah, and it'll
Speaker 1: be one of those things going oh if she, if
Speaker 1: only should have left the house half an hour later,
Speaker 1: none of this would have happened. Did they think you
Speaker 1: were carrying because they'd mixed up your voices from the podcast?
Speaker 1: There you go, that's exactly what it is. Yeah, man,
Speaker 1: it was someone else to carry, and they pushed in
Speaker 1: front the chain. And I hate to get into maybe
Speaker 1: we shouldn't talk about this. Let's talk about it. I
Speaker 1: don't understand people who jump in front of trains. Oh god, yeah,
Speaker 1: I don't understand the mechanics of it. Do you know
Speaker 1: what I mean? Are they are they killed by the
Speaker 1: impact of the front of the train or are they
Speaker 1: run over by the train? Or is it I'm sorry
Speaker 1: to be so, I think it's both. I think it's
Speaker 1: probably the impact. Bo. I think you've got you've got
Speaker 1: a time, it's so well, the timing's got to be right,
Speaker 1: you've got to be like you know now and then,
Speaker 1: But also you are going to be dragged under it.
Speaker 1: I imagine. I do think about it. I'd say every
Speaker 1: time I'm on the tube, I think about it. I
Speaker 1: think where in the platform do you stand as well?
Speaker 1: Because if you if you're too far down, you might
Speaker 1: jump and it's not going fast enough. You just saw.
Speaker 1: That's what I was think. When it's coming into the station,
Speaker 1: it's not going faster a visit, it's slowing down. Bounce
Speaker 1: a bit and then fit a bit embarrassing. Yeah, sorry,
Speaker 1: but I think that's probably you get dragged under it there.
Speaker 1: That's probably the I think you've got maybe more chance
Speaker 1: to survive in But I think most people that jump
Speaker 1: in front of tubes maybe do it when it's out
Speaker 1: you know where a bit where it goes outside and
Speaker 1: it's like a it's an outside train. Then oh you
Speaker 1: think they do it on an outside train? Yeah, So
Speaker 1: like when sometimes when the tube comes out, like when
Speaker 1: you come out of Paddlington or you're going to Heathrow
Speaker 1: and it goes out, Yeah, and it's an out it's
Speaker 1: an outdoor train at that point. YouTube, Yeah, it's an outtube.
Speaker 1: I think people do it there. But then obviously all
Speaker 1: that the backlog is all the trains have to stop.
Speaker 1: Why do you think they do it on an outta
Speaker 1: Because it's going faster, is it, and it's easier, right,
Speaker 1: I just think it's I just I don't know. I
Speaker 1: just think it's a bit difficult. If the trains come
Speaker 1: into a station, so you're saying they do it not
Speaker 1: at the station, they walk up a bit. Yeah that's
Speaker 1: what I mean. Yeah, you have to walk up a bit.
Speaker 1: It's very awful and awful for the driver everyone and horrible. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean it's a terrible, a really terrible time. So
Speaker 1: thank you for choosing that death. Of course, a lot
Speaker 1: of kind is a real shame. Do you worry about death? No,
Speaker 1: not really, I'm not scared of dying. When I was
Speaker 1: a kid who used to be scared to death of death,
Speaker 1: and I used to be worried about people dying all
Speaker 1: the time, like I think this is why I've got
Speaker 1: obsessive compulsive disorder now. I was obsessed, Like I used
Speaker 1: to be so frightened thinking, oh, my grandparents are going
Speaker 1: to die. I mean, obviously they are dead now, but
Speaker 1: it was just this worry that I used to have constantly,
Speaker 1: constantly worried about people dying. I'm worried about I don't
Speaker 1: want other people to die, but I'm not really asked
Speaker 1: if I Once you found out your grandparents were carry
Speaker 1: on doing your worshing. Did you relax a bit? I did, actually, yeah,
Speaker 1: sort of chilled out a bit. Do you know what
Speaker 1: started that? Do you remember if you had it when
Speaker 1: you were young, what made you go, everyone's going to die?
Speaker 1: Do you remember where it came through it? I think
Speaker 1: it's because I was brought up by my parents and
Speaker 1: my grandparents. But I lived with my grandparents because I
Speaker 1: just really there was no people. I was going, oh,
Speaker 1: why did you live with your grandparents? Were your parents me?
Speaker 1: And I'm like, now, I just really liked my grandparents.
Speaker 1: I just loved it. I thought were great. But they
Speaker 1: were old four grandparents because my mum's the youngest of six,
Speaker 1: so even as four grandparents, they were old people because
Speaker 1: like my granddad when she was like ninety three at
Speaker 1: ninety four, and I just I just think one day
Speaker 1: I realized like, oh, no, they're old and they're going
Speaker 1: to dine. I don't want them to. And I think
Speaker 1: that was probably from when it was about seven. Wow,
Speaker 1: So I developed this sort of It's definitely why I've
Speaker 1: got OCD. Now. I used to all these weird, little
Speaker 1: sort of ritualistic things, like I used to say this
Speaker 1: sort of little prayer in my head all the time.
Speaker 1: If I saw somebody like an old person, I say
Speaker 1: his little prayer in my head so that they'd be
Speaker 1: all right. I mean the arrogance really that I thought
Speaker 1: any control over someone's life. Do you think there's enough
Speaker 1: to life? I don't know. I believe it's sort of
Speaker 1: I think I sort of believe in not reincarnation, but
Speaker 1: I do think you can retain someone else's memories about things,
Speaker 1: or like you can pick up on feelings, which is
Speaker 1: what I think ghosts maybe are. You can pick up
Speaker 1: on someone's sort of emotion in a certain scenario, if
Speaker 1: that makes sense, or you know, any you get these
Speaker 1: weird kids that are like, oh, I used to be
Speaker 1: a fighter pilot and I remember dying in this field.
Speaker 1: And there's a really weird case. I think it was
Speaker 1: in Newcastle, this young lad who said that he was
Speaker 1: from being a kid, who said there was a German
Speaker 1: pilot who had been killed in a war, and gave
Speaker 1: all this information and then you saw a picture them
Speaker 1: both together and there was spitting image of each other,
Speaker 1: and it was so weird. It's such a weird story. Yeah,
Speaker 1: And I was like that and this lad died really
Speaker 1: young as well. He died like when he was like
Speaker 1: twenty five in a motorbike accident. I was like, that's
Speaker 1: too fucking weird. Even his parents were like, this is weird.
Speaker 1: We think he is this man, We've got no explanation
Speaker 1: for it. So I do think sometimes you can sort of.
Speaker 1: I don't know. I think something like that exists, but
Speaker 1: I don't really know how to explain it. Well, you're
Speaker 1: not far off, no surprise. There is a heaven. Oh great,
Speaker 1: your grandparents there, everyone's there. It's filled with your favorite thing.
Speaker 1: What's your favorite thing? Oh, my favorite thing? Oh god,
Speaker 1: is it serious? No? Probably oasis, right, okay, well it's
Speaker 1: the oasis. It's filled with the gallaghers. I mean there's
Speaker 1: I don't regret this, but there's a million gallaghers there.
Speaker 1: Oh they're really fun and they're seeing really catty, so
Speaker 1: for they're great, but there's a million of it over there.
Speaker 1: Oh wow. I'm still happy with the choice. And they
Speaker 1: are very excited to see you. The g and well,
Speaker 1: they want to talk about you, but they want to
Speaker 1: talk about you through the medium of film. And the
Speaker 1: first thing they ask is, what's the first film you
Speaker 1: remember seeing our Kid. The first film I remember seeing
Speaker 1: was Pinocchio, Disney's Pinocchio in the cinema. I'm not that old,
Speaker 1: but it was re released, you O Disney, just like
Speaker 1: when it was hard to see a Disney film. And
Speaker 1: I was very, very small. It was the first time
Speaker 1: I ever went to the cinema and I must have
Speaker 1: been about three, maybe maybe a little bit older, I'm
Speaker 1: not sure. And it was in the cinema which I
Speaker 1: think was the Audience on Oxford Road in Manchester, and
Speaker 1: my mom took me to see it, and I remember
Speaker 1: the horrible bit in the film where the boy turns
Speaker 1: into the donkey, yeah, and that frightened me. And I
Speaker 1: remember towards the end of the film, a very very
Speaker 1: tall man came and sat in front of us, and
Speaker 1: my mum kicked off. She was like, he for real
Speaker 1: coming in here sitting in front of her, which three
Speaker 1: years old films nearly over. So I remember that and
Speaker 1: I think being a bit scared because my mom was
Speaker 1: kicking off and be scared of the film, and I didn't.
Speaker 1: I don't. I don't really like that film now, to
Speaker 1: be honest, I think it was a bit horrible. It
Speaker 1: is horrible. It's horrible. It's a very creepy film. Why
Speaker 1: did the scary man come in so late? That's so dodgy?
Speaker 1: What was he doing? This gay tool man? I have
Speaker 1: no idea why this block came in so late. I mean,
Speaker 1: we will never know. But he came. It must have
Speaker 1: been five minutes towards the end. Maybe he'd seen it
Speaker 1: yesterday and there'd been a fiery alam and he haven't
Speaker 1: seen the end, and the cinema and said you can
Speaker 1: come back. He needed to see the very end of
Speaker 1: which I can't remember the end of that film. I mean,
Speaker 1: I'm sure it's a happy ending. Well I think he
Speaker 1: becomes a real boy. Ah, yes, I think he does.
Speaker 1: I'm going to say this is a shout out. Yemo
Speaker 1: del Toro has made a new Pinocchio. Stop Stop most Animals.
Speaker 1: It's fucking brilliant. Really, it's so good. It's when the
Speaker 1: films of the year, and I recommend you see it.
Speaker 1: It's fantastic. Okay, it has its moments scary. Do you
Speaker 1: have ciblings, Yes, I have a sister. She's six years younger.
Speaker 1: We never used to get on, but now we're getting
Speaker 1: a lot better. Now we're older. Okay, basically, your mom
Speaker 1: took me to the cinema. But what a scary film?
Speaker 1: What is the film that made you cry the most?
Speaker 1: Are you crying? Not? Really. If I see an old person,
Speaker 1: I just immediately get upset and I go, oh, gonna
Speaker 1: hope they're all right. Oh, hope that they've got a family. Oh,
Speaker 1: I hope that they're warm enough. And I started getting upset.
Speaker 1: And I think this is because I was brought up
Speaker 1: by my grandparents, and I'm one of those people that
Speaker 1: just automatically thinks that all old people are nice, right,
Speaker 1: So you know, you know when you see these like
Speaker 1: war crime trials and there's like a nine year old
Speaker 1: man in the dock and he's been a horrible bastard
Speaker 1: and he's committed awful crimes, I'm like, oh, it's just
Speaker 1: an old guy. Now I have this, and I know
Speaker 1: I'm just gonna so stuff like that upset it. Or
Speaker 1: like twenty four Hours in A and E that kind
Speaker 1: of stuff where people are injured. I get very upset
Speaker 1: about stuff like that. For films, I don't really get upset.
Speaker 1: I remember watching I mean I really liked the film
Speaker 1: Brief Encounter. Yeah, I remember watching that and thinking, well,
Speaker 1: this is sad, isn't it. I think she should just
Speaker 1: have left her husband and yeah, gone off with him.
Speaker 1: You know, she's miserable. Yeah, it's a really sad film.
Speaker 1: The ending of that film is devastating because that fucking
Speaker 1: woman comes in interrupts them. Remember absolutely, it's such a
Speaker 1: sort of British thing as well. It's such a British
Speaker 1: film that there's just two people too polite to say,
Speaker 1: can you fuck off? We're actually having a private moment.
Speaker 1: This is actually very very important. Yeah, this is literally
Speaker 1: the end of the film. You're having weather or whatever.
Speaker 1: Oh it's very cold, that isn't it? Shut up? Yeah
Speaker 1: that really still. I can't believe that the train was
Speaker 1: late today. I just says that. Yeah, it's like not
Speaker 1: now dooe, yes, do you too know each other? Yes,
Speaker 1: we're in love. Oh god, that's that's the see. I
Speaker 1: don't really cry. I remember watching that film Edward years ago. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and then I got very upset, and I can't remembering
Speaker 1: about the film. This is the problem I watch films.
Speaker 1: I can't remember I about it. I just remember being
Speaker 1: really upset about Belle and GHOSTI being like like dying. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I just got very very upset. You're you're a Nan kid.
Speaker 1: I am a Nan kids, N kids, I'm a Nan kid.
Speaker 1: I under I'm a Nan kid. This is it very sweet.
Speaker 1: It's interesting because nine kids are are often sweet and
Speaker 1: lovely and very like you say, very caring about how people.
Speaker 1: But it's interesting you're not moved by fiction. It's interesting
Speaker 1: that No, I'm not. It's I think I think I'm
Speaker 1: just very like, well, I know this isn't you know?
Speaker 1: They're not really in love, he's not really dying. I
Speaker 1: don't have that. You like your crime true? I do? Yeah. Yeah.
Speaker 1: Have you ever seen a fictional film of a true
Speaker 1: crime that you've gone like? Yeah, that was great. Weirdly,
Speaker 1: I watched like an old nineties TV movie about John
Speaker 1: Wayne Gacy the other day, and he's got one of
Speaker 1: the one of the Baldwins in it, the one that know,
Speaker 1: the one that you can't remember, Daniel, who's the other one?
Speaker 1: Another one Stephen. It might be that I'm not sure
Speaker 1: you're making it something now. I'm not there. It sounds
Speaker 1: like one of my dad's mate. I started watching it thinking, oh,
Speaker 1: this is going to be shit. I think I got
Speaker 1: really in it. I was like that was actually quite good. So,
Speaker 1: but I don't know, I don't really like I hate
Speaker 1: all these you know, I don't like that Netflix drama
Speaker 1: about Jeffrey Dama. I don't think it's necessary. I don't
Speaker 1: think it's necessary sometimes to make a drama about something
Speaker 1: that that's happened, that's really been really horrible. Yeah. True.
Speaker 1: What's the film that scared you to my Do you
Speaker 1: like being scared? With all this stuff you do? Do
Speaker 1: you find it scary or are you just interested? Both?
Speaker 1: But I love being scared? Okay, love it? I think
Speaker 1: no idea. I just really really like it. I sort of.
Speaker 1: I think I'm always chasing to feel frightened constantly. I'll
Speaker 1: love it. I'll love it, love being scared. But it's
Speaker 1: like it's like anything, the more you engage with it,
Speaker 1: the harder it is to scare me. But the film
Speaker 1: that scare me the most was Poltergeist. I was working
Speaker 1: this out the other day, So polter Geist came out
Speaker 1: in nineteen eighty two, and I saw Poltergeist when I
Speaker 1: was three years old. And the reason I saw it
Speaker 1: when I was three years old because my dad had
Speaker 1: got it out from the video shot Porky's video genuine
Speaker 1: shot in Manchester. And my cousin, who also used to
Speaker 1: spend a lot of time with my grandparents, she was
Speaker 1: off school ill, and if I remember rightly, she had
Speaker 1: something weird, like months or something. And I was sitting
Speaker 1: with so she's she's six years old than me, so
Speaker 1: she would have been nice. I remember sitting in the
Speaker 1: front room at my grandparents house and my dad was like,
Speaker 1: my dad Welsh. He was like, oh, I got to
Speaker 1: take this video back to the shop, but I have
Speaker 1: watched it yet, and he was looking afterwards and he thought, oh,
Speaker 1: it'll be fine. I'll just put Poltergeist on and this
Speaker 1: three year old and this nine year olds could watch it.
Speaker 1: And I remember being so it was one of those
Speaker 1: you know, it was like a sort of a sunny
Speaker 1: afternoon as well. And he closed the curtains, you know,
Speaker 1: so he could see the TV. But and I remember
Speaker 1: sitting on myself being so frightened, and my cousin was crying,
Speaker 1: and I was so frightened. My dad was carrying on
Speaker 1: watching a film, and my mom came home from work
Speaker 1: and she was like, are you off your head? How?
Speaker 1: Why are you letting these two watch this, and then
Speaker 1: that that was it. Then I was I just remember
Speaker 1: I wouldn't go to bed on my own. I remember
Speaker 1: being even up until being an adult, because my grandparents
Speaker 1: lived in it was a council house, but it was
Speaker 1: a Victorian house because it was such a big family.
Speaker 1: They got they got moved into one of the big
Speaker 1: Victorian houses. And I remember being so frightened of everything,
Speaker 1: and I put it back to seeing polter Geist. I
Speaker 1: used to have to get people to wait at the
Speaker 1: bottom of the stairs while I went for a week
Speaker 1: because I was so frightened of everything. But yeah, it
Speaker 1: has to be polter Geist, the one you know, like
Speaker 1: the just little bits of it that the TV. And
Speaker 1: oh yeah, so my dad blame him for that. And
Speaker 1: then I actually, probably about six months later, we still
Speaker 1: at my mom still got the picture I was drawing
Speaker 1: and said, oh, what are you drawing there? And I went,
Speaker 1: it's Poltergeist. And I threw this like, oh my god,
Speaker 1: Mom still got it. I drew this like monster with
Speaker 1: all these eyes on its head and stuff like that.
Speaker 1: She was like, Oh, I can't believe this is so that.
Speaker 1: It's definitely that one that scared me the most. This
Speaker 1: was the beginning of your love of being scared. I
Speaker 1: think so, yeah, so you knew you started making sense
Speaker 1: to the word. That's all you know. That's sort of
Speaker 1: sort of what happened with me and twim peaks. I
Speaker 1: blame my but you know, I'm grateful for It's all
Speaker 1: I think about, you know nothing, Yeah, yeah, what is
Speaker 1: the film that you love? People don't like it, critics
Speaker 1: hate it, but you think it's fucking brilliant and you
Speaker 1: don't care. This is really difficult because, as I say,
Speaker 1: when I watched things, I just go over go oh
Speaker 1: that was all right, Oh oh that was scary, or
Speaker 1: I've just wandered off half way through while started reading something.
Speaker 1: I mean, it's a film that is that is bad
Speaker 1: and he's meant to be bad, but I absolutely love it.
Speaker 1: It's The Room, Yeah, it's it's it's brilliant. I remember
Speaker 1: the first time I ever saw that was years ago.
Speaker 1: My friend Martin, who's brilliant of films, he said to me, this,
Speaker 1: this film, it's the words film ever made. It's called
Speaker 1: The Room. And I remember, and I'm not I don't
Speaker 1: download things illegally because I don't really know how to
Speaker 1: do it, but he got it for me, and I
Speaker 1: remember watching it and I was like, oh my god,
Speaker 1: this is amazing, Like it's just so bad but it's
Speaker 1: so enjoyable. Yeah, I always want. Asked to help on
Speaker 1: a jury for films offer an awards. Thing turned out
Speaker 1: I really didn't enjoy it. I didn't I didn't like
Speaker 1: sort of judging, you know, I didn't like because all
Speaker 1: films are very hard to make it anyway. But we
Speaker 1: watched a number of very like worthy, incredibly boring films,
Speaker 1: like really really boring, so boring. I was like, all
Speaker 1: these films are so boring and they're good, I suppose
Speaker 1: like they're well, they're so boring. And then there was
Speaker 1: this film that a man had self financed, he acted, wrote, produce, directed,
Speaker 1: and it was so insane and so bad and so
Speaker 1: like every actor was terrible. It was very very bad.
Speaker 1: But what it wasn't was boring. It was so not boring.
Speaker 1: It was thrilling. And I said to the to the
Speaker 1: to the group, I was like, I nominated this one,
Speaker 1: and everyone was like, come on, take this seriously, and
Speaker 1: I was like, I am being serious. I can't tell
Speaker 1: you why, I can't explain it, but this was far
Speaker 1: and away the most entertaining. Like I was all the
Speaker 1: the films we're talking about, I was bored, I was
Speaker 1: checking my watch, I was thinking of other things. This
Speaker 1: one I was engaged. I was lust in it. I
Speaker 1: had so many questions. It was fascinating. It's like I remember, Yeah,
Speaker 1: I remember more about the room than I do most things.
Speaker 1: You know, little things that you'll say, like anything for
Speaker 1: my princess, that kind of thing, or like when it
Speaker 1: just says hi dogging so that dog fits in the shop. Yeah,
Speaker 1: oh hi, Mark. It's so funny. It's just so funner.
Speaker 1: And the sex scene in it is horrible. It's horrible.
Speaker 1: It looks like it is physique. It's like a badly
Speaker 1: packed sausage. But he doesn't care because he's making this film.
Speaker 1: I think it's just incredible. I think you mean you
Speaker 1: get more enjoyment out of the room than you do
Speaker 1: out of like you say something like, oh god, here
Speaker 1: we go. What lesson? What lesson do I have to
Speaker 1: learn in this now? Yeah? And there's a magic. There
Speaker 1: is a magic to it. Because there are bad films
Speaker 1: that are not entertaining, that are just sort of bad,
Speaker 1: and usually they're boring. It's when they're boring, I think,
Speaker 1: but yeah, the room is not boring. No, not at all.
Speaker 1: What is the film you used to love but you've
Speaker 1: watched it recently and you're going, oh, no, I don't
Speaker 1: like this anymore. Whatever. Well, as when I was growing up,
Speaker 1: I was obsessed with Bill and Ted, obsessed love Bill
Speaker 1: and Ted's Excellent Adventure, Love Bill and Ted's Bogus Journey.
Speaker 1: And I did start watching The Excellent Adventure recently and
Speaker 1: I was like, oh, I'm going to have to turn
Speaker 1: it off because I don't think I'm going to enjoy it. Yeah.
Speaker 1: I was like, I don't want to ruin this to myself,
Speaker 1: and I want to keep it. I used to watch
Speaker 1: it every single day, every day on video, come on
Speaker 1: from school, put that, watch it again and again and again,
Speaker 1: and I just I went to watch it. I was like, no,
Speaker 1: don't leave it because a couple of minutes and I went,
Speaker 1: I think it is I don't think I'm going to
Speaker 1: enjoy it as much as used to enjoy it. To
Speaker 1: leave it. So that was smart. Can you can you
Speaker 1: point why or was it just a general I don't
Speaker 1: know what it was. It was just it was my
Speaker 1: good instinct and I went along with it. I was like, no,
Speaker 1: I'm going to have to just leave this bridge because things.
Speaker 1: If I like a film, that's it for me. I'll
Speaker 1: watch it every month for the next fifty years. You know,
Speaker 1: I can't really think of anything that. Okay, here here's something,
Speaker 1: this is this is what I learned. So I used
Speaker 1: to really love Sex in the City. Yeah, it was
Speaker 1: very of its time. When I was young. I was like,
Speaker 1: this is amazing. Love it, love it, love it. And
Speaker 1: I went to the cinema to watch the film and
Speaker 1: I was like, Oh my god, I can't believe they
Speaker 1: made a film of this. It's amazing. And then I
Speaker 1: started watching the series and I put the film on
Speaker 1: and I was like, oh god, that film. I just
Speaker 1: like I was like, oh no, I can't. That's how
Speaker 1: i'd say. And even as a series, I still enjoy it,
Speaker 1: which seems very dated now. A lot of the stuff
Speaker 1: and they don't they don't have moan. Every character just
Speaker 1: moans and complains. I think the only four one is Samantha. Yes,
Speaker 1: like Miranda, stop moaning. They just complain all the time.
Speaker 1: So i'd probably say from being so excited about the
Speaker 1: original Sex and the City film and go at the
Speaker 1: cinema and really enjoying it and being obsessed with that.
Speaker 1: I probably would say that, and I think I've avoided
Speaker 1: Bill and Tech, so I'll leave that where it is
Speaker 1: in the past. I would send defense of Sex in
Speaker 1: the City, the TV show. It's a fantastic show, and
Speaker 1: it was ahead of its time, which is that it
Speaker 1: now is dated, but that's because it was. It was
Speaker 1: very modern. I guess it's the way of the time
Speaker 1: it was made. It was very like wow, So we
Speaker 1: all moved to catch up with Sex in the City
Speaker 1: and said, now Sex in the City seems dated exactly.
Speaker 1: And I used to enjoy it. Bes in love to
Speaker 1: Sex and the City's great. Yeah, it was a good show,
Speaker 1: but yeah, it is quite cringe now when you look
Speaker 1: back on it. But still it was, as you say,
Speaker 1: very ahead of its time. Yeah, we were chasing Sex
Speaker 1: in the City for a bit. You know. There you go,
Speaker 1: What is the film that means the most to you?
Speaker 1: Not necessarily the film itself is any good, but the
Speaker 1: experience you had around seeing it will always make it
Speaker 1: special to you. Rachel fair Birth, I would say School
Speaker 1: for Scoundrels, the nineteen sixties version interesting with Terry Thomas
Speaker 1: Alice to sim and Ian Carmichael, because here we go,
Speaker 1: the nan kid is back. I my granddad used to
Speaker 1: you know, I used to watch a lot of used
Speaker 1: to record a lot of films off the TV, mainly
Speaker 1: black and white films, and he recorded School for Scoundrels.
Speaker 1: And I remember watching it being a very very small
Speaker 1: child with him, and I remember, this is how much
Speaker 1: of a nan kid I was a lot of the time.
Speaker 1: I used to pretend to be ill because I do
Speaker 1: so I didn't have to go to school, just so
Speaker 1: I could hang out with my grandparents. And we used
Speaker 1: to watch School for Scoundrels. So I would say that
Speaker 1: is probably probably if the film means to me, your
Speaker 1: nan kid status is breaking my heart. I know it's
Speaker 1: sad in it. It's very lovely, very sad, very sad heartbreak.
Speaker 1: He's so sweet. It's just so sweet your grandpads. Oh god,
Speaker 1: what is a terrible, terrible link. What's the sexiest film
Speaker 1: you see? I was get embarrassed about stuff like this.
Speaker 1: It's weird because like everyone was assumed because of what
Speaker 1: the way I do stand up and things to talk about,
Speaker 1: and you know, I just get really embarrassed about sort
Speaker 1: of sexy things like I just remember, like you know,
Speaker 1: in Channel five used to show the sexy films on
Speaker 1: Friday nights. Yeah, and I remember all the lads at school.
Speaker 1: It's old Red Shoe Diaries around tonight. Oh, like I remember,
Speaker 1: I remember Jamie the Lads go with Jamie Chadwick. He
Speaker 1: in French class on Friday, and he went, yeah, lads
Speaker 1: and got his matron gathered round. He went listening lads
Speaker 1: to the top porn or on Channel five tonight it's
Speaker 1: called Confessions of a Window Cleaner. So yeah, set the
Speaker 1: video right, and he was being dead serious. I was like,
Speaker 1: oh no, this is so embarrassing. So but I don't
Speaker 1: I remember watching ET and being embarrassed when Elliott kisses
Speaker 1: that girl. And I've always been quite embarrassed about things
Speaker 1: like that. I'll be honest. I mean, it's mad that
Speaker 1: I'm not more into sexy film because if my dad
Speaker 1: showed us Paul the Guys when us three, he may
Speaker 1: as well have shown us last time ago in Paris
Speaker 1: when it was five, you know what I mean. But
Speaker 1: I am sort of things that I find quite attracted,
Speaker 1: Like I'm not a big fan of Star Wars but
Speaker 1: quite fancy. Darth Vader interesting with his hat on. Yeah like,
Speaker 1: I just like it, I like his vibe. Yeah. I
Speaker 1: also find Patrick Bateman in American Psycho quite attractive. Yeah. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean you're it was really telling a story here.
Speaker 1: You like it? You like it? Bad guy? I mean
Speaker 1: you like your true credit. I've all like any character
Speaker 1: in any thin lights growing up, even like, for example,
Speaker 1: I used to really love the care Bears when I
Speaker 1: was a kid. Yeah, but I didn't like the cheerful ones.
Speaker 1: I like the grumpy one, and you know, sort of
Speaker 1: I used to love anything I watched. I always liked
Speaker 1: the Baddy the best, Like I liked skeletal rather than him. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I like I always engaged with the Baddy and like
Speaker 1: the Baddy the best. Or your true crime stuff? Are
Speaker 1: you like do you find yourself being I think I'm
Speaker 1: on the side of the criminal in this listenesses never
Speaker 1: no bus fictional Yeah, fictional bad guys? Yeah right? Interesting? Yeah, Okay,
Speaker 1: Thatthade is an interesting choice because he's you know, sort
Speaker 1: of a big, sort of plastic final man. It's just
Speaker 1: take he doesn't return the jed. I don't think you'd
Speaker 1: like what's under the Is he a monster? He's a
Speaker 1: sort of sad ravaged old man. Oh, he just wants
Speaker 1: to be loved. Oh my god, you'd love him even more.
Speaker 1: He's an old man. Oh no, Oh my god, he's
Speaker 1: a sad old man. That perfect man. I just like
Speaker 1: the vibe of him. I like the way he struts
Speaker 1: about and yeah, you know, cool voice. He seems like,
Speaker 1: you know, he's in charging it also. Yeah, Gaston from
Speaker 1: Beauty in the Base, Yes, an No one talks about
Speaker 1: how Bud dismisses Gaston immediately, doesn't even give him a chout,
Speaker 1: works out a lot, you know, driven it good with
Speaker 1: a gun. You know. Look, I'm telling you, you know what, right,
Speaker 1: she definitely would have had a girl. She might not
Speaker 1: want to be in a relationship with him. Yeah, but
Speaker 1: I think I'm spit. You'd have a great weekend. You'd
Speaker 1: have a lovely weekend. I mean, you'd have to talk
Speaker 1: about him quite a lot. You wouldn't get any eggs
Speaker 1: for brectically, you'd have all the eggs. But but you'd
Speaker 1: have a you'd have a laugh. You'd have a laugh. Yeah. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's a great reboot in the guest And she doesn't
Speaker 1: even make it to the curst with she sister. She says, yes,
Speaker 1: the guest done early on. See what happens. That's a
Speaker 1: good rum com. I want I'd want to say that
Speaker 1: tame him the beast is easy to try and fucking
Speaker 1: tame Guess done. He's the one. He's got issues, He's
Speaker 1: got deep seated issues. He is toxic masculinity all over.
Speaker 1: And she reads books I reckond together. That's a rum com.
Speaker 1: Can you imagine? Oh, what's going to happen? Disney? Are
Speaker 1: you listening? Thank you? There's a subcategory, of course, troubling
Speaker 1: bonus worrying. What's a film you found a rousing you
Speaker 1: weren't sure you should? And that sounds like maybe all films? Yeah,
Speaker 1: well I think it might be. See that's another weird one.
Speaker 1: I don't know. I think again, maybe it's American Psycho, right, Yeah,
Speaker 1: it's got to be, because I just think he's like
Speaker 1: the coldness, and I like it's just the you know,
Speaker 1: when he's getting ready in the morning and he's you know,
Speaker 1: he looks clean as well. I like that he does
Speaker 1: look clean and he puts plastic down, he does. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: his house is clean. He's very clean. That's true. He's
Speaker 1: very clean, So I think I think it might be that,
Speaker 1: but don't I don't know if they're not really not
Speaker 1: really anything. I mean, I know a lot of people's
Speaker 1: gateway has been the fox in Robin hood. Yeah, but
Speaker 1: and I totally got that as a kid, But now
Speaker 1: as an adult, I'm like, it's a bit of a drip. Actually,
Speaker 1: I don't he a good guys. It's not for you. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it just thinks he's too cleol. It's just like, hey,
Speaker 1: nothing's a problem. I'll do it, like, yeah, all right,
Speaker 1: it's not good for you. Yeah. Yeah, he's a real
Speaker 1: virtual signal. Yeah, yea social justice for shout up Robin.
Speaker 1: We'll be fine. Yeah, exactly. Oh, don't worry about it.
Speaker 1: I'm here now, brilliant. Yeah, no, thank you. You need gas.
Speaker 1: Start in there, kicking, kicking doors and shit, that's what
Speaker 1: you need. Yeah, get him in there. Also that the
Speaker 1: cock crawl at the beginning of that that played the
Speaker 1: yeah whatever it is, loot? Is it a loot? I
Speaker 1: don't blood enough. He was a big lad. Yeah, it
Speaker 1: doesn't getting it. Could have got involved. It was huge him. Yeah,
Speaker 1: he doesn't get the credit. You're right, he's just and
Speaker 1: he's a storyteller. You like stories, maybe he's yeah, I
Speaker 1: prefer what is the film you most relate to? So
Speaker 1: weird choices, but the shining Because Jack torrens like I
Speaker 1: feel like him a lot of the time. I just
Speaker 1: I've got to I've got things to do. You know,
Speaker 1: even if I go to the middle of nowhere, something
Speaker 1: will happen that means I can't do the thing that
Speaker 1: I need to do. So you know, I'll be in
Speaker 1: my flat and I'll be like, right, I'm going to write,
Speaker 1: Oh the door goals, or oh someone's got a fucking
Speaker 1: parcel that I've got a tech or oh this has
Speaker 1: happened now. Oh no, now I've got a gig, you
Speaker 1: know that kind of thing. And I just feel like
Speaker 1: he goes to the middle of nowhere, he wants to
Speaker 1: do his writing. His wife's getting on his nerves because
Speaker 1: she is irritating kids annoying. Yeah, yeah, because the kids annoying. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and then he ends up it's like all brilliant. Now
Speaker 1: I'm haunted as well. It's just it's just a man
Speaker 1: who had an idea, who wanted to write, and everything
Speaker 1: got in the way. That's how I feel so real.
Speaker 1: That was the original title. A brilliant Now I'm haunted.
Speaker 1: I'm haunted. Fuck my life excellent, don't say I get it.
Speaker 1: What is objectively the greatest film of all time? And
Speaker 1: I'm asking you, who doesn't like films? What's objectively the greatest? Well,
Speaker 1: I can only go off Mike what I think, and
Speaker 1: I would say An American World in London. Yes it is,
Speaker 1: even though it's got an embarrassing sex scene in it.
Speaker 1: Oh oh what's embarrassing about that sex scene? Oh it's embarrassing.
Speaker 1: I don't like it because it exists. Yeah in London,
Speaker 1: I love it, Yeah, I could, you know, I watch
Speaker 1: it several times a year. Here's something I love. The
Speaker 1: London Underground, right, I'm a bit obsessed with it. I
Speaker 1: get quite excited by it and I think it's a
Speaker 1: feat of engineering. And I never tire of the tube. Yeah, yeah, exactly.
Speaker 1: And the scene on Tottenham Court Road where that businessman
Speaker 1: gets eaten murdered, the scene the scene in that it's
Speaker 1: fun in the cinema where everyone's like, oh you've you know,
Speaker 1: I'm pissed off he killed me. But there's that couple
Speaker 1: who are like hello, I think they're really funny. I
Speaker 1: love it. I just think it's great. Not many people
Speaker 1: get this answer right, and you you have. That is
Speaker 1: greatly an excellent answer. It's fucking fund of that film,
Speaker 1: and it's fucking scary, and it's fucking sexy, and the
Speaker 1: end is truly tragic. It's a great film. Yeah, it's sad. Yeah.
Speaker 1: What is the film you could or have watched the
Speaker 1: most over and over again? And is it School for
Speaker 1: scoundra prope School for scoundrels. So, like most young girls,
Speaker 1: I used to just watch Grease constantly, constantly, constantly, you
Speaker 1: come home and put that in, watch Grease, watch it again.
Speaker 1: So I've seen that a lot. But I think the
Speaker 1: film I probably watched the most and could watch over
Speaker 1: and over it's Jurassic Park. Yeah, he good, good, I
Speaker 1: love it. It's brilliant. Yeah, it's It's probably just one
Speaker 1: of my favorites. Never get tired of it. I still
Speaker 1: think the dinosaurs are scary. They still look good, excellent.
Speaker 1: I can't go into an industrial kitchen without thinking of
Speaker 1: a losciraptors. There you go, Yes, yes, that's true, always
Speaker 1: looking which which which carbon am I going to hide in? Yeah?
Speaker 1: Exactly where yes, very good. Yes, what is we don't know?
Speaker 1: To be negative? What's the worst film? He ever? So
Speaker 1: I've got it. Going back to my dislike of making
Speaker 1: films about true murder. The recent Ted Bundy film, I
Speaker 1: thought it was terrible. What was it called extremely wicked? Yeah? Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: so that was awful. But even worse than that. There
Speaker 1: was a maid for TV Ted Bundy film years ago.
Speaker 1: Because I'll tell you what, I will happily instead of
Speaker 1: watching a well crafted film that's a classic, I will
Speaker 1: happily sit there and watch TV movies. I cannot get
Speaker 1: enough of them. The shit are the better. But there's
Speaker 1: one about Ted Bunder and I saw it was on
Speaker 1: Channel five in the afternoon once and I was watching
Speaker 1: it and the end of the film, obviously Ted Bundy
Speaker 1: is being electrocuted, but the executioner has a has a
Speaker 1: black mask, like a black hood on. They pull this
Speaker 1: lever and then as he's like frightened, the person takes
Speaker 1: the hood off and shakes her hair and it's a
Speaker 1: beautiful woman. It was just like. But the thing is,
Speaker 1: I've never I've not tried to find this film since
Speaker 1: I saw it because I just remember going, oh God,
Speaker 1: please and I was watching the time. And then every
Speaker 1: time I relay this to people, I go, as I'm
Speaker 1: telling it, I go, have I made this up? Sounds
Speaker 1: like I keep thinking of Yeah, I keep it like
Speaker 1: a twist, like it's one of his victims or it's
Speaker 1: someone anything. So the twist is like, you know, because
Speaker 1: all of his victims were sort of young, attractive women
Speaker 1: with long brown hair that was sent to be the
Speaker 1: kind a woman that intended to kill it. So it
Speaker 1: was like, oh, look, and it's like his victims are
Speaker 1: getting their own back, not a ship. That's so ship.
Speaker 1: Tell me this. You're in comedy, You're very funny. What's
Speaker 1: the film that made you laugh the most? Rachel fair
Speaker 1: Ben Okay, I will have to go back because I
Speaker 1: think it's quite difficult to for me to laugh at
Speaker 1: figure out because it's very tragic, isn't it. I find
Speaker 1: things like general conversation funnier than I find things that
Speaker 1: are meant to be funny, airplane correct funny, so funny, stupid, funny,
Speaker 1: so stupid, silly, so funny, Yeah, funnier. But and then
Speaker 1: so that's probably films made me laugh the most, and
Speaker 1: that I still will laugh at, even though I know
Speaker 1: what's going to happen in it. It's still funny. In fact,
Speaker 1: how I feel like I want to watch that. I
Speaker 1: want to watch it now. That's that's that's how much
Speaker 1: I like it. Well, then again, I find films. This
Speaker 1: is not the correct answer, But for some reason I
Speaker 1: find Home Alone Too really funny. But that's only because
Speaker 1: once I watched it with my friend who was making
Speaker 1: up his own storylines to it. So whenever I watch
Speaker 1: it now, I've got his storyline, which we're quite frankly
Speaker 1: filter in my head because I watched it with f
Speaker 1: one Christmas Eve, and I just remember like crying, laughing
Speaker 1: when he was doing his own sort of drunken commentary
Speaker 1: on it. So now I just find Home Alone Too
Speaker 1: just funny for the wrong reason. So that is a
Speaker 1: film that makes me laugh, so so phasically he's, oh god,
Speaker 1: this is awful. So when Kevin's talking to the pinching woman,
Speaker 1: he said, pretend that they're not talking about whatever it
Speaker 1: is they're talking about, you know, Christmas and loved ones
Speaker 1: and things, and pretend they're talking about rimming. And he
Speaker 1: was just so stupid. I cannot and when it gets
Speaker 1: to Christmas, will send me a message. You'll say you
Speaker 1: watching Home alone too this year? Oh yeah, so that
Speaker 1: makes me laugh for the wrong reasons. For airplanes is definitely,
Speaker 1: I think one of the funniest. Rachel Fairburn, You've been
Speaker 1: an absolute delight. I've loved doing this. However, when Kary
Speaker 1: Preachad McLean made an enemy and that enemy went looking
Speaker 1: for her on the podcast but didn't know what she
Speaker 1: looked like, but knew her voice heard you talking on
Speaker 1: the Tube platform, I thought confused. The voices thought the
Speaker 1: whole time they've been listening to your podcast that you
Speaker 1: were Kerrie and Rachel was the other voice. Anyway, you're
Speaker 1: having a chat with someone next to you. They're a
Speaker 1: fan as well, and you're chatting about Yeah, no I
Speaker 1: like I think I like Patrick Bateman because he's clean.
Speaker 1: And this person pushes you in their time. It just right,
Speaker 1: just as the tube is coming. You're on an out
Speaker 1: one by the way by Paddington and they push you.
Speaker 1: You hit the tube, then you get sucked under, then
Speaker 1: your body gets trampled into bits. What to do, it's
Speaker 1: a real it's chaos. Anyway, I'm getting the tube myself.
Speaker 1: I'm coming down the station and I've got a coffin
Speaker 1: with me. You know what, I'm like just wondering around,
Speaker 1: like looking for where we'll see what happens anyway, Oh,
Speaker 1: I say, is that Rachel forever? And then they go yeah,
Speaker 1: everyone goes yeah. It's a fucking mess. So between trains
Speaker 1: because you know, I keep having to jump off the platform.
Speaker 1: Ye come down picking up bits of you pebbles. I mean,
Speaker 1: it's awful. I'll be honest, one the one of the
Speaker 1: worst clean up jobs about to do stuff you in
Speaker 1: the coffin. There's more of you than I was expecting
Speaker 1: because of all the bits and the fucking you know,
Speaker 1: train tracker to shop up all sorts. Anyway, you're stuffed
Speaker 1: in this coffin. It's round. It's only enough room in
Speaker 1: this coffin. Now for me to put one DVD in
Speaker 1: the side for you to take across to Heaven. In Heaven,
Speaker 1: it's movie night every night, and one night it's your
Speaker 1: movie night. What film are you taking to show all

Speaker 1: in London and they will be grateful for it. Yes,
Speaker 1: what's a choice what's a film? What's a guest? What
Speaker 1: a life ratefel favorite? Is there anything you would like
Speaker 1: to tell people to listen to you look out for
