1
00:00:01,440 --> 00:00:04,800
Speaker 1: And Amanda jam Nason. You went out last night on

2
00:00:04,880 --> 00:00:10,000
Speaker 1: a Monday night. Goodness me I saw. I was thrilled

3
00:00:10,039 --> 00:00:14,040
Speaker 1: to be invited to interview Olivia Coleman for ten minutes

4
00:00:14,120 --> 00:00:16,360
Speaker 1: or so before a screening of her new film, which

5
00:00:16,400 --> 00:00:19,720
Speaker 1: is called Wicked Little Letters. It's a fantastic movie before

6
00:00:20,520 --> 00:00:24,239
Speaker 1: a group at the Ritz Cinema up in Randwick. And

7
00:00:24,440 --> 00:00:29,240
Speaker 1: I met Olivia for a drink beforehand, and we chatted

8
00:00:29,240 --> 00:00:31,320
Speaker 1: then in the car on the way there, and then

9
00:00:31,360 --> 00:00:34,360
Speaker 1: we spent ten minutes on stage together. She I just

10
00:00:34,400 --> 00:00:36,560
Speaker 1: want her to be my new best friend. She's everything

11
00:00:36,600 --> 00:00:38,600
Speaker 1: I've ever wanted her to be. I've loved her for

12
00:00:38,760 --> 00:00:42,479
Speaker 1: years and years from her earliest show's peep Show. I

13
00:00:42,520 --> 00:00:45,280
Speaker 1: asked her actually just when we were chatting about how

14
00:00:45,280 --> 00:00:46,800
Speaker 1: she because she did a whole lot of stuff with

15
00:00:47,479 --> 00:00:50,320
Speaker 1: Mitchell and Webb, which is Robert Webb and David Mitchell,

16
00:00:50,600 --> 00:00:52,320
Speaker 1: and she said the story has always been written at

17
00:00:52,320 --> 00:00:54,760
Speaker 1: there at university together. She said she never went to university.

18
00:00:54,960 --> 00:00:56,720
Speaker 1: She tried to get into acting school, couldn't get into

19
00:00:56,960 --> 00:01:00,120
Speaker 1: acting school, failed about one hundred of her first audition

20
00:01:00,280 --> 00:01:02,680
Speaker 1: to try and try her hand at acting. So she

21
00:01:02,760 --> 00:01:04,720
Speaker 1: was working at a cleaner at the UNI and somehow

22
00:01:04,760 --> 00:01:08,440
Speaker 1: met them through that forged this creative bond with them,

23
00:01:08,800 --> 00:01:11,280
Speaker 1: and that's kind of where she got the ball rolling.

24
00:01:11,920 --> 00:01:15,880
Speaker 1: So she had one hundred failures through auditions before anything

25
00:01:15,880 --> 00:01:18,480
Speaker 1: happened for her. That's what happened. But she's the nicest woman.

26
00:01:18,520 --> 00:01:20,679
Speaker 1: We spoke. She know what she's obsessed with Australia. She's

27
00:01:20,720 --> 00:01:23,320
Speaker 1: been in Australia for about three weeks making film and Adelaide.

28
00:01:23,400 --> 00:01:28,200
Speaker 1: She's obsessed with Married at First Sight, The Australian Australian Well.

29
00:01:28,240 --> 00:01:31,440
Speaker 1: She said that she finds it fascinating to see some

30
00:01:31,520 --> 00:01:34,000
Speaker 1: bad relationships play out, and that she said, there are

31
00:01:34,000 --> 00:01:37,440
Speaker 1: some very sincere people in that show, really looking for love.

32
00:01:37,520 --> 00:01:40,840
Speaker 1: And it's so interesting in this truncated version of life

33
00:01:40,880 --> 00:01:43,880
Speaker 1: and relationships, where you get to see coercion, you get

34
00:01:43,880 --> 00:01:46,360
Speaker 1: to see how bad relationships can begin, you get to

35
00:01:46,360 --> 00:01:49,360
Speaker 1: see red flags. So for people to see warning. She

36
00:01:49,640 --> 00:01:51,240
Speaker 1: wants to say to her kid's look at that. That's

37
00:01:51,280 --> 00:01:53,840
Speaker 1: what's bad. So she finds it quite fascinating. She say

38
00:01:55,280 --> 00:01:58,000
Speaker 1: she hasn't picked up one hundred percent. We spoke about

39
00:01:58,000 --> 00:02:00,000
Speaker 1: holding in underpants, you know, like the rest of us,

40
00:02:00,080 --> 00:02:02,560
Speaker 1: why we were, that's right in your wheelhouse. It's completely

41
00:02:02,640 --> 00:02:05,440
Speaker 1: my wheelhouse. The horror hot stories throughout the years of

42
00:02:05,480 --> 00:02:09,080
Speaker 1: ringholding it underpants. She was just the most fabulous woman.

43
00:02:09,080 --> 00:02:11,120
Speaker 1: I just loved her and she liked Taylor Swift. The

44
00:02:11,120 --> 00:02:14,040
Speaker 1: first thing she wanted to do in Australia hold a koala?

45
00:02:14,200 --> 00:02:16,440
Speaker 1: What's with that? What's with that? She loved it and

46
00:02:16,480 --> 00:02:18,679
Speaker 1: she said she was thrilled to see it didn't have chlamydia.

47
00:02:19,040 --> 00:02:20,400
Speaker 1: I said, well, that's what you think. You'll get a

48
00:02:20,480 --> 00:02:22,760
Speaker 1: letter in a few weeks later. Sorry, I have to

49
00:02:22,800 --> 00:02:25,400
Speaker 1: tell you I've got chlamydia. What's that the Marriti first

50
00:02:25,400 --> 00:02:30,440
Speaker 1: sight contest. Anyway, we caught up with Olivia yesterday our interview.

51
00:02:30,600 --> 00:02:32,600
Speaker 1: We caught up with her before I got to hang

52
00:02:32,639 --> 00:02:35,640
Speaker 1: out with you. Yeah, so it's just a regular interview

53
00:02:35,680 --> 00:02:39,320
Speaker 1: before she and I became best friends. So that will

54
00:02:39,320 --> 00:02:42,360
Speaker 1: explain any sort of aloofness that perhapsed. There was no allotiness,

55
00:02:42,600 --> 00:02:44,440
Speaker 1: but we don't refer to our evening together
