52
00:01:48,120 --> 00:01:51,640

54
00:01:54,240 --> 00:01:54,800

59
00:02:04,320 --> 00:02:06,600
Speaker 5: around us and writers, and let's see, I did a

60
00:02:06,600 --> 00:02:10,120
Speaker 5: bit on The Chase and a bit on SBS comedy

61
00:02:10,160 --> 00:02:12,480
Speaker 5: over the years, and somehow they thought if I didn't

62
00:02:12,480 --> 00:02:14,560
Speaker 5: try to be funny and just acted like Ray mart.

63
00:02:14,320 --> 00:02:17,120

Speaker 5: and Becky Lucas they come on as as a mock

76
00:02:46,760 --> 00:02:50,280
