1 00:00:01,440 --> 00:00:03,320 Speaker 1: And Amanda gem Nation. 2 00:00:05,160 --> 00:00:07,160 Speaker 2: Our next guest is a man of many talents. He's 3 00:00:07,200 --> 00:00:09,440 Speaker 2: a comedian and author of musician, an actor. He's one 4 00:00:09,480 --> 00:00:11,400 Speaker 2: of the favorite guests that I've ever watched. 5 00:00:11,080 --> 00:00:12,200 Speaker 1: On What I Like to You. 6 00:00:12,640 --> 00:00:14,920 Speaker 2: Well now he's down Under with a hilarious news show 7 00:00:15,000 --> 00:00:18,319 Speaker 2: called Ready Steady David o'doity And guess what his name is. 8 00:00:18,360 --> 00:00:21,200 Speaker 1: It's David o'doity. Hello, David here he is. 9 00:00:22,040 --> 00:00:24,960 Speaker 3: I love that intro. That was an absolutely perfect intro. 10 00:00:25,120 --> 00:00:27,440 Speaker 3: Makes me seem more talented than I actually am. But yeah, 11 00:00:27,440 --> 00:00:28,120 Speaker 3: I'll accept it. 12 00:00:28,120 --> 00:00:29,920 Speaker 1: Well please, but you are all those things. 13 00:00:30,080 --> 00:00:33,360 Speaker 2: And I like the musician part because you often incorporate 14 00:00:33,400 --> 00:00:35,360 Speaker 2: a miniature electronic keyboard. 15 00:00:35,360 --> 00:00:37,400 Speaker 1: It's not what you'd call a chick magnet. 16 00:00:37,040 --> 00:00:37,279 Speaker 4: Is it. 17 00:00:38,280 --> 00:00:42,479 Speaker 3: No? I got it from my confirmation. Really really, I 18 00:00:42,479 --> 00:00:45,800 Speaker 3: mean there's a very irish sentence. Now. Yeah, you see, 19 00:00:45,800 --> 00:00:49,240 Speaker 3: my father is an actual musician. He is a piano 20 00:00:49,320 --> 00:00:52,559 Speaker 3: player who would have played on like ten Lizzie records 21 00:00:52,120 --> 00:00:55,800 Speaker 3: and dozens of recordings over the years. And I think 22 00:00:56,160 --> 00:00:58,200 Speaker 3: he didn't want me to play a big piano because 23 00:00:58,200 --> 00:01:02,880 Speaker 3: you can't turn it down. But the small plastic Yamaha 24 00:01:02,920 --> 00:01:06,040 Speaker 3: and Cassio you can just simply take the batteries out 25 00:01:06,200 --> 00:01:07,479 Speaker 3: and then I can't be heard. 26 00:01:07,880 --> 00:01:09,720 Speaker 4: And this is the same one that you got for 27 00:01:09,760 --> 00:01:11,040 Speaker 4: your confirmation. 28 00:01:12,319 --> 00:01:15,880 Speaker 3: I'll be honest, Jonesy. It's been replaced several times as 29 00:01:16,080 --> 00:01:18,040 Speaker 3: sometimes after a gig you take it to a bar 30 00:01:18,240 --> 00:01:22,080 Speaker 3: and sometimes someone in that bar sits on your beautiful 31 00:01:22,160 --> 00:01:23,680 Speaker 3: keyboard you go for your confirmation. 32 00:01:24,160 --> 00:01:27,280 Speaker 5: It sounds great the confirmation, Gybud, because when you make 33 00:01:27,319 --> 00:01:30,160 Speaker 5: your confirmation I'm a Catholic, a man is not a Catholic. 34 00:01:30,240 --> 00:01:32,480 Speaker 4: But that you're about what twelve years of age? 35 00:01:33,360 --> 00:01:38,040 Speaker 3: Yes, exactly, yeah, yeah, so I definitely. Well, I wanted 36 00:01:38,040 --> 00:01:40,600 Speaker 3: to be a professional cyclist and that wasn't working out, 37 00:01:40,920 --> 00:01:43,800 Speaker 3: and then I decided I would become a professional musician, 38 00:01:44,120 --> 00:01:46,720 Speaker 3: and has that worked out? I'll let you be the judges. 39 00:01:47,880 --> 00:01:49,600 Speaker 2: And how did your family feel when you said you're 40 00:01:49,600 --> 00:01:51,720 Speaker 2: going to be a professional comedian, because that would be 41 00:01:51,760 --> 00:01:52,640 Speaker 2: way down the chain. 42 00:01:52,720 --> 00:01:56,160 Speaker 3: You'd think, well, when your dad is a jazz musician, 43 00:01:56,200 --> 00:01:59,520 Speaker 3: I think it might actually be a step up technically. 44 00:02:00,120 --> 00:02:04,040 Speaker 3: I think in terms of what would horrify potential, you 45 00:02:04,080 --> 00:02:08,359 Speaker 3: know in laws more and probably jazz is more horrific 46 00:02:08,400 --> 00:02:12,120 Speaker 3: than comedy. So I'm doing okay. I mean, it's an 47 00:02:12,120 --> 00:02:17,079 Speaker 3: interesting family because so my great grandfather was a famous 48 00:02:17,320 --> 00:02:20,360 Speaker 3: like a revolutionary and the revolutionary period in Ireland, and 49 00:02:20,360 --> 00:02:22,800 Speaker 3: then my grandfather was like a secretary to a prime minister. 50 00:02:23,120 --> 00:02:25,320 Speaker 3: And then my dad is a jazz musician and I'm 51 00:02:25,320 --> 00:02:27,800 Speaker 3: a stand up comedian. So it doesn't bode well for 52 00:02:27,880 --> 00:02:31,520 Speaker 3: the generations coming after me. The trajectory seems to be 53 00:02:32,639 --> 00:02:33,160 Speaker 3: going down. 54 00:02:33,280 --> 00:02:34,240 Speaker 4: Imft. 55 00:02:34,320 --> 00:02:35,800 Speaker 5: Someone in your family is going to be a game 56 00:02:35,840 --> 00:02:38,640 Speaker 5: show host or working on TV advertorials. 57 00:02:40,520 --> 00:02:42,320 Speaker 3: Maybe yo yo, professional yo. 58 00:02:44,160 --> 00:02:47,280 Speaker 2: Well, I love the idea that you recently featured on 59 00:02:47,360 --> 00:02:48,240 Speaker 2: British Bakoff. 60 00:02:48,320 --> 00:02:50,640 Speaker 1: Was that terrifying? It's a very genteel show, but it 61 00:02:50,639 --> 00:02:51,600 Speaker 1: looks terrifying. 62 00:02:52,760 --> 00:02:57,160 Speaker 3: It is absolutely. I rehearsed harder for that than I 63 00:02:57,240 --> 00:02:59,799 Speaker 3: have for the Edinburgh Fringe for anything that I've ever 64 00:02:59,840 --> 00:03:02,919 Speaker 3: done on and then on the day or on a 65 00:03:03,000 --> 00:03:06,040 Speaker 3: couple of days when we filmed it, we filmed it 66 00:03:06,080 --> 00:03:08,840 Speaker 3: in the same studios when I filmed the James Bond. 67 00:03:09,040 --> 00:03:11,600 Speaker 3: So it's got an outdoor grassy bit so it looks 68 00:03:11,680 --> 00:03:15,440 Speaker 3: very beautiful and I fell to pieces day one. The 69 00:03:15,480 --> 00:03:20,200 Speaker 3: first two sections of bake Off, I was the laughing stock. 70 00:03:20,600 --> 00:03:22,320 Speaker 3: But then, what you really want to be on one 71 00:03:22,320 --> 00:03:24,880 Speaker 3: of these shows, I've realized since then is the hero 72 00:03:25,080 --> 00:03:27,959 Speaker 3: the redemption arc. So at the very end my show 73 00:03:28,040 --> 00:03:31,680 Speaker 3: stopp where it really brought the house down, And what. 74 00:03:32,080 --> 00:03:33,440 Speaker 1: Did you get your redemption arc? 75 00:03:35,240 --> 00:03:37,480 Speaker 3: Well, I didn't get a handshake, which is the thing 76 00:03:37,560 --> 00:03:42,440 Speaker 3: you want from mister Paul Hollywood. But I certainly looking 77 00:03:42,480 --> 00:03:44,800 Speaker 3: at the feedback that I got online and I think 78 00:03:44,800 --> 00:03:48,360 Speaker 3: it was more feedback than I've ever gone for anything. 79 00:03:49,360 --> 00:03:52,960 Speaker 3: People liked this. It was quite an emotional cake that 80 00:03:53,040 --> 00:03:53,480 Speaker 3: I made. 81 00:03:55,360 --> 00:03:56,320 Speaker 1: Emotional What was this. 82 00:03:57,960 --> 00:04:01,440 Speaker 3: So you had to do? Okay, I think heroism was 83 00:04:02,560 --> 00:04:05,200 Speaker 3: you have to do a cake inspired by that. And 84 00:04:05,440 --> 00:04:10,560 Speaker 3: I've always liked those Antarctic exploration stories, particularly the Irish 85 00:04:10,600 --> 00:04:14,880 Speaker 3: explorer Shackleton with of course stuck in the ice for 86 00:04:14,960 --> 00:04:19,719 Speaker 3: a year. So I made a giant merangue with a 87 00:04:19,880 --> 00:04:25,520 Speaker 3: tiny chocolate flake ship in the middle of it. It 88 00:04:25,680 --> 00:04:29,360 Speaker 3: genuinely so, I looked up what the food they had 89 00:04:29,360 --> 00:04:30,840 Speaker 3: when they were stuck in the ice for a year, 90 00:04:31,160 --> 00:04:34,080 Speaker 3: and they had Roman dates, So I put a layer 91 00:04:34,080 --> 00:04:37,880 Speaker 3: of Roman dates inside it, and by Fluke, more than anything, 92 00:04:38,200 --> 00:04:40,719 Speaker 3: it's one of the most delicious things I've ever tasted, 93 00:04:40,800 --> 00:04:43,440 Speaker 3: So yeah, I may move full time into into cakes 94 00:04:43,480 --> 00:04:44,240 Speaker 3: after this tour. 95 00:04:44,480 --> 00:04:47,120 Speaker 5: Well, I thought, being comedian comedian, you would have used 96 00:04:47,520 --> 00:04:50,640 Speaker 5: the caked in the bunt just for the comedic jokes 97 00:04:51,320 --> 00:04:56,520 Speaker 5: with it.
