But you what's 197 00:08:36,600 --> 00:08:39,600 Speaker 3: the what's the essential premise for for the movie? 198 00:08:39,920 --> 00:08:43,800 Speaker 1: Well, it is based on on one of Shakespeare's play 199 00:08:43,880 --> 00:08:46,840 Speaker 1: called much Ado about Nothing, which is about the best 200 00:08:47,200 --> 00:08:50,120 Speaker 1: named play that he's ever got, right, because it is 201 00:08:50,200 --> 00:08:54,480 Speaker 1: much Ado about Nothing. It is two characters who there's 202 00:08:54,720 --> 00:08:57,920 Speaker 1: there's a big wedding throwing two characters from different sides 203 00:08:57,920 --> 00:09:01,400 Speaker 1: of the of the marriage. Partners just don't get along, 204 00:09:01,720 --> 00:09:04,320 Speaker 1: and the whole function of the wedding is to try 205 00:09:04,360 --> 00:09:07,400 Speaker 1: and get these two together. Now, when the play was written, 206 00:09:07,480 --> 00:09:09,640 Speaker 1: it was written somewhere in Italy, and I think at 207 00:09:09,640 --> 00:09:12,480 Speaker 1: one stage they thought about doing this in somewhere in Italy. 208 00:09:12,559 --> 00:09:15,360 Speaker 1: But Will Gluck, the director who doesn't feed a rabbit 209 00:09:15,400 --> 00:09:18,040 Speaker 1: out here twice, loves Sydney and went, no, I think 210 00:09:18,040 --> 00:09:21,719 Speaker 1: we're doing in Sydney. And I'm very glad they did, 211 00:09:21,760 --> 00:09:24,200 Speaker 1: because otherwise I wouldn't be playing the father of the bride. 212 00:09:25,480 --> 00:09:28,440 Speaker 4: Ladation made. There were some scenes where you just go, 213 00:09:28,679 --> 00:09:30,680 Speaker 4: did I really just see that happen? But when you 214 00:09:30,720 --> 00:09:32,679 Speaker 4: first read this, did you go, this looks like a 215 00:09:32,679 --> 00:09:33,160 Speaker 4: lot of fun. 216 00:09:33,280 --> 00:09:36,120 Speaker 1: It did look like a lot of fun, and the 217 00:09:36,200 --> 00:09:38,360 Speaker 1: two leads I knew would be very good. 218 00:09:39,559 --> 00:09:43,360 Speaker 3: In fact, you mentioned Sydney Sweeney. She's the female lead. 219 00:09:43,400 --> 00:09:46,520 Speaker 3: Obviously Glenn Powell is the male lead. Did you and 220 00:09:46,559 --> 00:09:50,679 Speaker 3: Glenn swap Tom Cruise stories because he worked on Maverick 221 00:09:50,720 --> 00:09:52,840 Speaker 3: with him, And of course you and Tom go back 222 00:09:52,880 --> 00:09:53,520 Speaker 3: to Cocktail. 223 00:09:53,760 --> 00:09:56,319 Speaker 1: Yeah, we didn't mention a couple of things.

So obviously he's had a really tough lead 456 00:20:37,480 --> 00:20:42,280 Speaker 11: up into this first Test, given Mitchell Johnson's scathing attack 457 00:20:43,600 --> 00:20:46,880 Speaker 11: and yeah, so he did amazingly.

Of course they're playing 466 00:21:02,760 --> 00:21:05,919 Speaker 11: against Pakistan in a really dominant position.

He's meticulous and amazing. 474 00:21:28,480 --> 00:21:30,840 Speaker 11: So I was surprised with thirty one. But there's still 475 00:21:30,840 --> 00:21:32,800 Speaker 11: you know, whole summer to go, so subcessive. 476 00:21:32,960 --> 00:21:34,879 Speaker 6: Yeah.

You must be looking forward to 492 00:22:09,960 --> 00:22:11,800 Speaker 11: playing in front of your family and friends. 493 00:22:12,640 --> 00:22:13,720 Speaker 12: Yeah, super exciting. 494 00:22:13,840 --> 00:22:16,800 Speaker 9: It's been a long time I think for Perth tennis 495 00:22:16,840 --> 00:22:19,480 Speaker 9: community to have Team Australia back playing in Perth. The 496 00:22:19,600 --> 00:22:22,679 Speaker 9: last few years since COVID, you know, Team Australia has 497 00:22:22,680 --> 00:22:24,800 Speaker 9: been across in Sydney sort of since we lost. 498 00:22:24,640 --> 00:22:29,200 Speaker 12: The Hopman Cup even and the United Cups format now 499 00:22:29,240 --> 00:22:33,080 Speaker 12: and the event has kind of been revised and it 500 00:22:33,280 --> 00:22:35,919 Speaker 12: kind of plays back into really a Hopman Cup style 501 00:22:36,000 --> 00:22:39,720 Speaker 12: format with added points and prize money and even bigger 502 00:22:39,720 --> 00:22:41,520 Speaker 12: and better events. So I think it's going to be 503 00:22:41,520 --> 00:22:42,960 Speaker 12: the perfect way to start the season. 504 00:22:43,600 --> 00:22:47,280 Speaker 11: You're in Group C, so you're against US and Great Britain. 505 00:22:47,480 --> 00:22:50,760 Speaker 11: They're seated three and eight in the world. Australia's fifteenth. 506 00:22:50,880 --> 00:22:53,320 Speaker 11: That's a really tough group. Do you think you can 507 00:22:53,359 --> 00:22:53,880 Speaker 11: get it done? 508 00:22:55,880 --> 00:22:58,679 Speaker 12: For sure? I think even naming those three countries, they 509 00:22:58,760 --> 00:23:01,600 Speaker 12: probably the three biggest ten powerhouses over the last one 510 00:23:01,640 --> 00:23:04,720 Speaker 12: hundred years. I don't know about the group team rankings, 511 00:23:04,760 --> 00:23:07,000 Speaker 12: but I know, you know, we've been in a Davis 512 00:23:07,000 --> 00:23:08,879 Speaker 12: Cup final the last two years in a row, so 513 00:23:08,920 --> 00:23:11,760 Speaker 12: I think our well men's ranking would be top two 514 00:23:11,880 --> 00:23:14,480 Speaker 12: or three. I'm not sure what the combined ratings how 515 00:23:14,560 --> 00:23:16,440 Speaker 12: that works, but I know the girls had big success 516 00:23:16,640 --> 00:23:20,439 Speaker 12: last year in the Villagean Cup as well, so I 517 00:23:20,440 --> 00:23:22,560 Speaker 12: mean we've we've got world class players, but as do 518 00:23:22,680 --> 00:23:24,760 Speaker 12: all the other teams, and I think that's the great 519 00:23:24,760 --> 00:23:27,280 Speaker 12: thing about this United Cup. They've they've put it back 520 00:23:27,320 --> 00:23:29,520 Speaker 12: to sort of one man, one woman and a mixed double, 521 00:23:29,640 --> 00:23:32,680 Speaker 12: so you basically get the number one from every country 522 00:23:33,040 --> 00:23:35,640 Speaker 12: squaring off against everyone, and if there's a live match, 523 00:23:35,640 --> 00:23:38,520 Speaker 12: then there's a live mixed doubles to sort of clinch 524 00:23:38,520 --> 00:23:40,040 Speaker 12: the tie. So it's going to be exciting. 525 00:23:40,600 --> 00:23:43,040 Speaker 11: No, it absolutely sounds it. As we head into the 526 00:23:43,160 --> 00:23:44,760 Speaker 11: end of twenty twenty three, I guess we all look 527 00:23:44,840 --> 00:23:46,680 Speaker 11: back at the year and think of things we could 528 00:23:46,720 --> 00:23:49,400 Speaker 11: have done differently or better. You've had an amazing year, 529 00:23:49,520 --> 00:23:50,800 Speaker 11: but how do you reflect on it? 530 00:23:52,000 --> 00:23:55,360 Speaker 12: Thanks, Yeah, it has been amazing, and I think, yeah, 531 00:23:55,480 --> 00:23:59,600 Speaker 12: probably said one or two little points or matches extra 532 00:23:59,720 --> 00:24:02,920 Speaker 12: here there would have been probably the best possible ever. 533 00:24:03,440 --> 00:24:05,760 Speaker 12: But yeah, you know once I asters had some Grand 534 00:24:05,800 --> 00:24:09,160 Speaker 12: Sam Finals, finals of Davis Cup, but yeah, I mean 535 00:24:09,880 --> 00:24:12,320 Speaker 12: there's also plenty of matches and times we got over 536 00:24:12,359 --> 00:24:14,520 Speaker 12: the line just by a point or two that we 537 00:24:14,560 --> 00:24:17,239 Speaker 12: could have lost. So yeah, personally I finished number two 538 00:24:17,280 --> 00:24:19,120 Speaker 12: team in the world, which is great, but only by 539 00:24:19,280 --> 00:24:21,880 Speaker 12: let's say, hundred points. So we were one match away 540 00:24:21,880 --> 00:24:25,040 Speaker 12: from being number one many times. But on the same time, 541 00:24:25,760 --> 00:24:28,879 Speaker 12: you know, we were probably many times just winning. You 542 00:24:28,920 --> 00:24:31,040 Speaker 12: know really closely to be able to be number two 543 00:24:31,040 --> 00:24:33,080 Speaker 12: and not number three or four or five or worse. 544 00:24:33,160 --> 00:24:36,560 Speaker 12: So I come my blessings and I'm always grateful for 545 00:24:36,600 --> 00:24:38,199 Speaker 12: what I did. We gave it our best effort. Was 546 00:24:38,200 --> 00:24:40,800 Speaker 12: a huge year. Similarly in Davis Cup, you know we 547 00:24:40,880 --> 00:24:42,840 Speaker 12: went all the way to the final, another huge effort 548 00:24:42,840 --> 00:24:45,960 Speaker 12: by the boys, and obviously. 549 00:24:45,600 --> 00:24:46,480 Speaker 6: You know we were there to win. 550 00:24:46,560 --> 00:24:48,960 Speaker 12: We wanted to win, but you know you got to 551 00:24:48,960 --> 00:24:51,080 Speaker 12: take the final and then sort of lace them up 552 00:24:51,119 --> 00:24:52,120 Speaker 12: and go again next year. 553 00:24:52,640 --> 00:24:55,040 Speaker 11: It's remarkable what you've been able to do. I think 554 00:24:55,080 --> 00:24:57,160 Speaker 11: everyone here at the broken here wants to know how 555 00:24:57,200 --> 00:25:00,520 Speaker 11: you'll spend Christmas. We've seen on Instagram and there's lots 556 00:25:00,520 --> 00:25:02,720 Speaker 11: of posts of you at the beach, not at the Maldives. 557 00:25:02,800 --> 00:25:04,760 Speaker 11: You said, just to make it clear, I'm in Perth. 558 00:25:05,080 --> 00:25:06,520 Speaker 6: How will you spend That's right? 559 00:25:07,240 --> 00:25:09,600 Speaker 12: That's right. Yeah, A little bit of a running joke 560 00:25:09,680 --> 00:25:12,280 Speaker 12: with the tennis players on the tour. There's a lot 561 00:25:12,280 --> 00:25:14,560 Speaker 12: of deals and that in the maldis where you can 562 00:25:14,600 --> 00:25:16,879 Speaker 12: go and you know, do some coaching for them and 563 00:25:16,960 --> 00:25:19,040 Speaker 12: you get your holiday paid for and whatever. And it 564 00:25:19,080 --> 00:25:21,720 Speaker 12: seems a running joke. Everyone always goes to the Maldis 565 00:25:21,920 --> 00:25:24,800 Speaker 12: and posting about it.
