Is that how long you'll? No, it will take a minute to message up. It the act of sending the WhatsApp. I'm with you Okay Can I say Steve was late today, by the way. Why'd you say that fast? I say because I've wronged a lot of young comedians thinking, you know that's what young comedians are like now they're always like. Well, as we were discussing, I was early and then there was a reason I didn't want to come in. so I did a circle of the block. Oh was then You don't want to get caught up in your sleazy shenanigans. No. You know, sleazy shenanigans, I think, we used to run the Irish bob in That's my drag name, Slezy shenanigans. be al right. Yeah, I quite like it But you know this is why slee E as E That's exactly what it is. Anig. But you know, this is why Frank reminded me of Russell T. Davis Because when we went to this screening, it's exactly the two first things he did. I know I talked about this last week, but it's just uncanny. The first thing he did was criticize the producer for turning up late and say, Well, you didn't think was the director. The director. He said, Well, he turned up late And then when no one laughed as much as I hoped, I thought, this is Frank Clan Sinner. Dear, what's happen? I wonder you two get on so well, Frank O, this I went That's why they're time Lords, that'su I was out and about on Sunday. Is this a common sign in pubs? There was a It said Sundy roast And then it add a picture Tell me if this is around the lotw It was a picture of a cow And then standing on the cow's bat there was a pig. And standing on the pigs mat was a sheep And then on the sheep's back was a chicken And then there was three mushrooms just hovering in there And it was like a pyramid of what was available for a Sunday roast. And the animals were standing on each as if they'd been cononvertting into some sort of display team. Really to wet your appetire. Is this a normal thing No, but you know what? I don't I enjoy hypocrisy when it comes to me eating. I don't want to see evidence of the cute animals anyway. Well, remember, hypocrisy is the homage that vies to virtue Very true That's rather strange. I didn't like it. and I do eat meat, but it made me think maybe I'll stop eating meat if they' stand on each other's backs. And also why mushrooms getting involved I also think top of the hierarchy as well. I also think slaughtering has a certain respect involved with it. You slaughter somebody properly Thats not somebody But making them stand on each other's backs Do that feel. Like I once went to a place where they had a sockling pig, you know that was on the table And they'd put like a red pepper in its mouth. And I thought, no Yeah ever bit a respect for the dead before we eat them. But adding whimsy to a thing that you're about to munch on? No It's a bit of dangous then with thely A, Frank, please, not in front of Steve We don't know where we'll end up. No you're right. You know U I was a fool What's your favoriteong with fool in it Probably Fall by Elvis Prestley. Oh has he got a song called for? Oh you didn't have to hurt her For you only had two love I' like whyider fools fall in love.ag Fool's gold. Oh, that's a good one stuff. fool. You do. if you hear Um, that one, you will know it, Frank The stone rosesull on the house you'd think was the biggie. Yeah, yeah Weve gone who was my one? Frankie someone wider fall it Frankie Valley? No. Frankie Lyman and the teenager. There. Is that O Carrell that Carol we are sounding like old. for Lanka. Okay. Come on to now. So enough now. So we were five last time and now we're capital gold. No now we've gone a bit Giles Brandth lesson.iles I love a Brandth. What the fuck does Giles Brandth wear in this heat You can't wear a jumper a guy. He's gonna die. What do you think? Does he wear a t shirt that looks like a jum? Nakeded t shirt? little cat sleeves. The wool just doesn't lend itself to the hot temperatures. What does he wear in these conditions? Does someone have to sheer him? That would be a strange job Yeah D you know that's a great question. Maybe if anyone knows and has seen this man? I bet he doesn't leave the house Maybe he go know his house. It's actually knitted. It's got a knitted house in Mfair. It's got a picture of It's knitted there's a vintage car knitted into the side wall. The Porsche do struggle in these hot temperatures. Well Do you know what I mean? Becauseuse the posch, they don't wear a singlet. they don't wear with respect, Steve Coach driver short sleeep shirt. What they wear is a tailored short. Oh Yeah, but the tailored short doesn't have as many pockets as Do you know who wears a tailored short? L lovely Johnny Bowden, founder of Bowden the high end clothing Are you familiar with Bodden I know John Bodden, the folk singer, I'm surprised that he's got he wears a tail Surprised and disappointed. I'll tell you what they wear. Sometimes Alan Clark used to wear this sometimes. If you saw a picture, he'd wear a tailored short, absolutely right, Frank, almost like a Bermuda with a shirt, a long the sleeves sadle roow shirt, just rolled up at the sleeves. Do you know that? And then a Panam? Leather Misins with no socks. Oh man. We have nailed their look on the Riviera. You see, I sort of when I see young people out in the hot weather that we've experienced of late You were you'. They look forward to be able to show their bodies. They do because they, you know, they've all Not all of them, a lot of them are like amazing boys and girls, both. Oh Bla. Bar All right they now't know that I look forward to confronting them with what they must face in the future I like that. like I like the idea of yes. Yeah don don't don't look away. donon't look this is coming. We are Christmas E My farest flower shall wither. I am so sing I'm inclined to agree with you. Now, but you still look great. Oh I love. In the summit ' I'm so deathly pale, so my leg's on display. You are actually But you can see people will look at I sort of why is that person looking at me? I realize it's because they' upset by having to look at my legs. Yeah I was like that. Frank, Ay. Frankactly what are you doing? You can't just go yes. If someone goes, Oh my awful legs, people might look They're up front now That's not full acceptance. I know, but you've got lovely legs, Steve. Oh, I mean they're prismatic, they. Do you know what? they're really not that bad. Prismatic. Light passes through them Oh I was thinking in this hot weather though do despair sometimes of the fashion out there There's some bad things going on Don't you think? Does it not bother you in the same way Well you're clued into this. I am trends. I think I just think it's not that hard. comeome on, people It's really not that hard to get your act together for the hot weather You know Some of the awful things, the socks with trainers and then the Oh I think it's okay. I think in the summer it all better off. Like I said, there's a lot of beautiful people out there looking beautiful. the rest of us can mocking. There a generational thing with this that I think Gen Z like wearing socks with trainers with shorts because because they think it's like or if you think it's anti fashioned. Yeah. But it's also that they get hor because they'll think, Oh your feet will be really gross if you're not wearing a sock Yeah, but Frank, you look chic somehow with that. I don't like I sent before the trainer saw I don't like that ultimately deceit. No, that's dead now, isn it? It's pretending that you're not wearing socks when it is. We could launch this as you know these Instagram accounts where it's people roving the streets. We could have you roving the streets attacking just I'm sorry I'm sorry, but you look awful. Well might haveave some dignity How to become the most hated woman in Bit. I'm sorry, but you look awful. And that's it. and then you just move on. that's just ten second stings each time. That's it. too be honest, I'm astonished at how many G looking fit people there are We've been hanging on places. I think they must all, you know, I suppose it's this going to the gym thing that some people do. Yeah, they go to the gym. and you know they eat healthy as well these years. They don and eat healthy Oh, Robin. Steve, what have you been doing with your terrible week? Well we were discussing previously about the feedback that I'd got from my last appearance. I've had some feedback from my brother. Oh yeah He gave me two pieces of feedback. Is he knowice your brother? Yeah, he's a lovely bloke. I have two brothers, one of whom I'm not allowed to talk about. Oh I understand, in public My brother Lawce is happy for me to discuss. But he said two things. He said, first of all, on he said, my teeth look terrible. O the Instagr on the videos of this. Hang on, this is the nice brother. Yeah This is my nice brother. said, I've gott to be honest, your teeth look terrible. Next to me, they look terrible. Well's 'use I've never had a single. I really think I like having steh here. Look how good my teeth look? Yeah, yourours look great. I mean, we are like the three I've not had a single food. I've got a chipped tooth from the thirteenth of december, two thousand five Upon arriving at Aberiswith train station, Greg Davis took his guitar case down from the train rack. smashed me in the face with it and I have a chiiped tooth that he's never offered to repair despite the millions that Taskmaster has paid him All So that's the only thing, but he said he said, I don't know why they just looked terrible. I said, Well, thank you for your lovely feedback. I think they look f. Mine look terrible. Yours look, you know, all right and Emily's look great. Yeah, yours look lovely. I don't think yours look terrible, but Oh well, you're gonna say that You've got to say that to be honest.ook no one here has got great te. Even my dentist said they looked terrible. Oh, he didn't. My dentist said so across. Y front feeth are so thin now. I can see your tongue moving about behind them Within the second, you know when someone has a torch on in the tenth like that Silhouette pickers m. I was in Berble. I did all the medieval stunt the teeth doubling in the film Beerewolf. ang Every time one of the actors smiled they c to me. You would yours would be addressed with but I don't think you need it. No, I tried whitening. it didn't. What yourour teeth are impervious to whiten.ed I tried whitening them very unpleasant, you know, trays ofah and all that sort of stuff. nothing. There's a system called Enlighten Not as shame as the system called Enlighten and that's what it's for. Because you know, more than ever now the world needs enlightenment, but not the just the Buddha with a perfect set ofven ears Yeah, theuddh opens his mouth Turkey teeth, a pair of Ryolland teeth. Yeah. Yeah, Enlighten, it is depressing, isn't it that it's called Elighten? It it means such a different thing. It's the age of Enlightenment, but it means something very different now, Fank. Yes I would work on you. I've got a guy that could sort you out. but what I would say is I actually really respect you for keeping your teeth. Thank you, Darling. Is that okay for me to say that The dentist said, I don't want to make them like super white, just less green. That's what he said. I think Steve is fine No that it looks f. What was your other? And then the second piece of feedback you because a few weeks ago, we briefly talked about the band Half Man, half Biscuit. We did. My brother is a big fan knows way more about music than I do. And he chastised me. He basically said because we went to the thing that one of their songs was called All I Want for Christmas is a Duc L Prague awwakeid. And he said That in my head, it was I middle least you got it right. I thought it was Saint Etian was the awakeid. it's a good job I didn't say that. My brother's take on that is that he considers that, that's the big moment ig of Half Man half Biscuit. and he thinks they're one of our very greatest bands and they sort of get remembered in this slightly kitchy way where it's like a reference to Sbutio. And so he was basically saying, I need to correct the record to emphasize how good mean he's intrigued us to with how much you know them because there there are so many things about half manan half biscuit that would coincide with stuff you love. So for example They turned down an appearance on the tube in the eighties because Tranmere were playing on the Friday night, and so they turned down the opportunity to be on teleing so they could go and watch Tranmir. Brilliant. And they've got lots of references to. What about Markking Smith's contract when he did Later with Dores Holland, saying under no circumstances, could he be accompanied by Honky Tong Diana And then so they've got lots of puns in their songs, but also lots of references to poetry. So one of their songs is called a Sropshire lad. rightight? One of the songs is called a pon Westminster Bridge. They've got an album of sort of odds and sods that's called An S Fell on Stony Ground. Oh, really? So there are so many things that are sort of I said skinadason. And he was basically saying, if you like the fall and you like the lovely eggs they would sort of be a natural kindind of okay, bedfellllow That's there's no entry point for me here just say, you know. I'm going to takeck him out I I to Yeah You couldt tell Lawrence. Yeah, But it's basically he gave me a proper bol. Why is he called Lawce and you're called Steve? It's very different. Do you call me Lell? Because Lawrence Lawce v Larence of Arabia or And you guys are in Fx. Yeah, think I think my m my mum was a big fan of Omar Sharif, I think. so I think that's I think Omar Shheriff. And Steve Oh, speaking of foxes Oh God. and they've made it so we can't cut that out. Very clever. We found me and u my son and my nephew were u investigating some waste ground And Now love I love a bit of waste Cround. You never know what you're going find? I love a sort of stick I'm quite stick of the dump romantic that. We' found fourore arms know I used to hang out here in the eighties. Yeah. So You know some of your old friends. T all the same friend. We found water I can only describe as a mommmyified fox Oh that's sad And it was I think it was pretty sure it was a fox. I've got a picture. I don't know if Emily will let me put it up because it's a bit No I don't animal cruelty. Tip and slash. There's not no cruelty involved. There's no suggesting a foul play. The chickens weren't involved. There was a chicken standing on it back. I don't like anything about animals upsetting, You know I don't But this is an interesting phenomenon because I thought This doesn't look like like a rotten or decaying fox. W it mumm? It looks like you know, the non putre faction of saints, have you ever heard of that? Okay. So sometimes they dig up saints, the Catholic Church and they're in pretty good condition term me almost. It' they just haven't properly Because of the celestial is? Well that's that's the theory. Right. The church nowadays keeps us sort of an open mind on. The theoryies like in the catacombs there was a very, very under Rome, it was very, very dry and because I think the process is to do The rate of dehydration being faster than the rate of bacteria. Oh I see. And this thing, that's what it looked like. Really. So it's been almost unintentionally embalmed into. Well it looked incredible. It looked like one of these saints. So Cf U was I'm amed to bite And she went on the internet Googled Mummyified Fx. The first thing we saw, Mummyified fox for sale. four hundred and sixty five couldid. I don't think it was as good as the one on the ground. Yeah. I wantm to show you guys a photo of it. I'm grace him as done. I mean I'll show Steve. Well I want to it might be so we might need to cananonize or beatify this fox Yeah, well that's it's non putrefied There you go Oh wow. Yeahah, that for a response. Yeah. That's hardcore, but that is Absolutelyc. I don't like anyw you see? I don't like the description of hardcore when you're looking at content on Frank'sb. something I see because it looks like Howard Carter could have discovered that. Yes, exactly Exactly So yeah, four hundred and sixty five quid That's how much it was. Well that not this one. No, but well it's not, you know, it's not comy. No, but I thought we ought to, you know It's a shame it's just lying there. That' all I'm saying. But this weather will probably p up. You know what you sound like you sound like Mrs. Loveittt. When it first occurs to her they can use the bodies for meat. She actually says seems an awful waste. Well about the dead bodies and the meat pies? I'm just thinking Eennedy Jr.'ll eat that up F little try. I'll just say this weather could put another fifty quid on me. Dry it out just a bit more. It's pretty amazing. We will put it up, I'll put it up on social. I'll see what you think. Well, you don't have to look. sometometimes when when they do auctions and comedians are asked to donate memorabilia. Now that you've immortalised. I haveve been for twenty years. You can say I can't believe you brought it off. I can't actually.

Oh here we go So it's I saw it not only on iMax, but in three D. On the hottest day of the year now IiMax three D in Row D really right. It was absolute. Man, it was it was mind blowing. It was like having a workout Which one is this then? I get confused. There's about twenty five? Pedro Pascal Oh he's a nice boy. Fedroal, federro, federro, federal fed.cept veryy rarely. does he play? He plays the Mandalorian. Who's the Mandalorian? Well have you ever There are a race on the planet of Mandalw there's a race of people who are humanoid. But their religion means that they can't show their face. So they always wear armor and a big mask. Oh, I qu'ite like that idea. So like it. So Petra wears a mask out so I've heard. And on the very very rare occasions the Mandalorian takes off his mask, which is a great dishonour for him to be seen withouti. But when he takes it off, his pedro and he's got a fzy mache. You say whyy would you have a mustouache?? Why would you get to the bother of grooming a mouache If you're wearing that all the I ask a question, do you go on your own to these things? No, I went with my son our friend Molly, whos Oh I love Star Wars. I went on my I couldn't get my kids interested in it. Have you seen it? I've seen it, yeah. Oh, good on, yeah. Oh yeah. It's because I don't want to give spoilers, but there is don't worry. I have no intention of ever seeing this film. there's of a member of Jab of the Huttss family is a prominent character and he's ripped. So the idea of a ripped Hot hot hot. H voiced by Jeremy Allen White from The Bear. Wh is a very beautiful manat seeeeing a ripped jab of the hut, it reminded me very strongly of Darren Lyons from Celebrity Big Brother, the one who But had done the fake six pack on his stomach.'d like I don't know if he'd had implants to give himself a fake. Oh yes. have you seen those fake? No Obviously I so notide I would' have got one. I ha'. Can you imagine' flying with a fake?. If you do, you I'd like a stomach I could grate cheese on Oh What happened to me is we got invited So what I thought was the premiere few a few weeks back. Oh Mand to s to Bos s. I said to Bos We've been invited to the Mandalorian and Grogu Premiere. I was very excited. So we got there. Pedro was there. Sigornney was there. Oh, they werere all there. Favro But I thought celebrities because I got quite a lot of paparazzi action and normally you know I have to move over for share And I'm thinking The only celebs I saw was me and Dan Walker. I thought that can't be it, can it? Really? wereere you the only celebs? So I couldn't work this out. You know, loads of fans are getting signatures from Sigorney and Pedro and stuff So we got in and you know ourot was really excited about us seeing the thing. and then I realized I hadn't properly read the invite. it was just the first twenty five minutes as a sort of teaser. So you saw twenty five minutes? Of course at my age, I'm gutted that I've let my son down. We're only going to see twenty five minutes, but I'm thinking, I'll be home for nine o'cock. whichich is always off there. That's a win. But so I'd already seen the first twenty five minutes accidentally And then we went and we paid and'm sorry I loved it. H All right Okay, I dont mean you might see it I've got a lot of catching up to do, Frank. Yeah, you need to see three series on the TV. because's a TV show, I thought it was film Star Wars. Now it's a lot of Star Wars now on Disney plus. The Mandalorian series was one of the few that wasn't bad So the series was very popular. In Save's opinion exitic sizes. Introduced baby Yoda who now who now has the name Grogu, but people went Oh, I like baby Yoda. All these ones like ewoks and Yodas I like. They really in this one they really lean into how much baby Grogu loves eating They make it such a running they turn him into Joey from friendriends the amount. Well, I think the word part The word in the American sort of company preress is they've gone family instead of fanboy with this film. Oh have I? Which I think there's more money because fan booys tend not to have families Well c the amount em merched because it's a cute baby yodor, the amount emerched that one character alone will shift apart from I took kid there's a Lego store just open in Oxford. I took my kids there yesterday And just you know it's Lego razor crerest and all that. I could have got Lego now Yeah ye. Wow, that's right. Wow. Oh, I'm glad I live in London.. Speaking of London, have we heard anything in from We have The world. We've heard from Georgia Norwich Which isn't speaking of London, It's speaking of Norwich. I just meant outside of the studio. I understand. I love Norwich. I think if I had to move somewhere else, that's where I'd move. Would' you I like a bit pregnancy, Julia Yeah. I like I like a bit of he's his best friend, Juliian Norich. I love O was it she? Yeah? Oh, yes, the woman throughrew the prison In a little cubicle on the side Yeah Joan it makes me lagh, I'm sorry U Dear friend Eemalily and Gest, I'm an English teacher and a colleague once told me that she broke up with an ex boyfriend partly because he often spoke in cliches And she couldn't handle it This in itself made me laugh, but even better than that afterfter they'd broken up xt at her and said It's a crying shame This really made me laugh. And for some reason, I thought Frank might like this too. That's from George and Norwich. Imagine Frank getting the text. It's a crime shame. Howi, Lura. I thought you' gonna I was waiting for a text too to tag. At least he was nice, you're right. At least he was sort of you know not offensive or aggressive. But at the end of the day, it's been a good relationship Yeah That would have been Anyway, I enjoyed that enormously. I thought you might enjoy that as well We've also heard Fr hang on, can you talk amongst yourselves while I find this, please? Yeah I I got it very I got it. Oh you got it? Steve have it in anecdote, come in there. Well, okay, you choose Frank. No It's a big moment for you to him. No, I couldn't possibly Over to Frank Skinner. The choice is yours Are you going go outside worldor or are you gonna go Steve Gold? I'm going outside world. Emily safe pair of hands Next time, Steve. This is from Lex Oh Okay, he's got a nerf Asfter what he's done to my hero. Lutarian Hi guys. withith the talk of Yurella recently, I don't know if you were here when we Yeah ye was like Yura I wondered if, as a comic book fan, Frank is aware that Gellar once appeared in a Marvel comic, teaming up with their deevil No It was back in the seventies or eighties and Gellar had to use his psychic powers to help Daredevil fight a supervillain quite sure how Gala's publicity team managed to arrange this appearance, but it must surely stand as one of the most bizarre comic book team ups to ever happen, or the best from Lex. Very oldd it's from Lex, isn't it It is really. It's making me suspicious. Be there used to be a thing of putting real people in the coult. Is that right? Rember Mohammad Ali fought superman and did pretty well Yeah two of Sandu ballet joined Melchester Rovers. play alongside Roy the Rover. I've actually just found a picture of it here. Yurri Gellar and Daredevil. Okay. And it's quite extraorde. A any keys involved? I couldn't see any keys. it's showing him What it should have joined is with he should have been Saint Peter. He's looks like A piece of leadather piping. It's a very flattering comic interpretation of you, really? Yeah, he looks rather more like Pauling Prescott, I would say. Pself.self. Yeah, it's a very sort of remarkable, right? Be he appears on this Johnny Carson,' the thing that launches Gella. But James Randy was basically debunking him, so they set him up to fail And so he flops and he think apparently Gellar thinks it's all finished. I like that we're calling him Gellar like he's really like he's sort of Einstein or something. And because he was he was like I just haven't got the energy today. He wasn't like,, the trick hasn't, who's going, just I feel weak today So people embraced him also weirdly after that, even though appearance went badly suuddenly he was in demand everywhere So this run in the middle of the seventies where he's ending up in comic books. No he had a great he did have a great run. He was hot property for a long time. And I always thought James Gandy just like spoils but peopleeople are say, Oh, I know how he's doing. Well, I don't hate me. wouldn't want to sit in front of James Gandy at the there., isn't it James Gandy? or whatever his names. Well his important names are important, Fang. if you've got that bloody Gandy, he's an absolute charlatan, that could Is he a professional debunker then, Do Is he Randy? James Randy. you should Well, to be fair, he would change that now, wouldn't you wouldouldn't you Oh, I don't know Yeah, his whole thing was, I know oes Don and stuff like that And then we're supposed to like him for that by atate those people Yeah, we don't like I don't w want to know we anything still Itra in housework. Oh my go Terry in June. June. Go on next. Okay you Wt Steave reid one out? He can. but he won't. I think you You often have more than me and your list. Don't use these excuses. Steve, I'm sick of these exuses based on the lady read the letters in the Secretary so big gy W that my money penny? Oo Big is firstly, thank you for reminding me of the Green Hornet and putting me onto Superstore. This might be a me thing, but contrary to your wanting to tell the world about something brilliant like Superore, I have a similar outlet to Emily where I hate it when people discover something I've loved for years. it's new. I'm wondering, is it normal to like love, connect with something so much that you want to keep it just for you Well, that's why we've got so many missing episodes in the Doctor Who world. Becauseuse some people have got the recordings and they don't w wantan share them. Is that true? And yeah, they love the idea of having them exclusively for themselves It's not a good human instinct. No it's very selfish. Although I tell you what I get a bit irritated is when I discover a series, like I like that you wanted to share Sperstore with people. I think that showed you in a very good light because I I get very irritated when I say to people, Ohh you should watch Mad men, or you should watch succession. And those self same people around to me three months later and say, I'll tell you what's great madmen, haveave you seen that I say yes, I told you to. and they say, No, you didn't. theurious. I've got one friend who will discuss this person on he does it all the time to me Oh really? Y It drives me nuts. It's doyial. It's liter. So this is the secret of not knowing that many people if I see more than one P wants having a conversation with Cf And I did you did one Is this gonna lead to something that you really love? and then someone else finds out about how good it is. That's where we're going with this. Kath, I didn't know how good the Giruti column were until Kath raved about the Giruti. What is this? It's talking about these things. F from the late seventies, early eighties Look Vinny Rileilly. basasically is the duram. a very good band but V he's just been there's there's a gig in honor of him because I think he's not well enough to perform himself, but there's a gig because it turns out Harry Styilles is a massive Jiruti coln is thatight. And so so as part that ruins it as part of Harry Styles' meltdown There's a tribute to Vinnie Rilly And I really love that that someone is as ob I start us have a meltdown No wonder in this hat. Moy doesn't wear much, he should be alright. Yeah Yeah, well catal likes many, many alternative bams Jeez Yeah, she's But she also likes Sabo. It's an odd comadiction. But the point is you're happy, the question being wanting to keep it to yourself, I don't think that's true of you. No you're having to share these things. No, it's like food in our house. Cathle say to me Did you have an orange at the basket? at the fruit basket? And. Yeah. I was in the fruit basket. Yeah, I was really looking forward to. Whereas I will honestly give them my last Rolo I think is the term. Yeah, she's very very careful on that stuff. But I tell what she did this year is it was Buzzy's birthday the weekend. Oh did you always makes a cake based on. What was it this year? It was stranger things this Oh, a lot of black icing or white icing. Oh there was a bit it red? wasas it an upside down cake Very l I suggested an upside down cake and she hadn't heard of it. No. So think yourself lookingucky you did that. She has the red writing then Yeah I'll show you a picture. I'll put this up here. Yeah I did put them up every year But Kath is always, she never realises how good her cakes are. Not just does she not realize, but we'll say it's absolutely shit this year is what she'll say. Oh, I bet it's a good. Oh my Godd, it looks amazing, guys, We're going to share. We'll sh It's a mummified fox Now it's sitting there it's a.,'s icing on it. Weve put a bit of icing on the my. I would you know what I would spend two hundred and forty pounds I would spend on that cake. Well, she made that It's extraordinary. Really good. Yeah. Anyway. So did it go down well? Well it's half eaten. but then again how was the Mummy five Fucks. And that's not even to get started on the one orange. Mummy five Fucks doesn't have a tail, by the way, that's the one thing that's missing I think people often go for the tail first if they're taking a fox souvenir know I could have given that fox a loving home What the mummy fire for? Yes Well it's still time. It will keep. That's the joy of the mummified fox. It's the pet that won't leave you know? It sounds right on my stas. It's true though. It's true It was as noting as the cone of walking the mummified fox Oh there. That would be good. You could have a small trolley for it. And then you could interview people of a dark m a car's a n. It's gototh. It botom car N Yeah, it's great. She would walk the mumy five far.. I'm coming up next week, Robert Smith. Yeah Rbert. I'm all over it. Tim Burton would do that. Ne Yeah, it could be a really great thing. The woman who played Wens, do you what's her name? Oh yes We know who she is now. Sarah Michelle Galla would do it. You really gotta h dad Yeah, the Bffy, the vampire bender. I don't know if you remember that one. She bends vampires into and strange shapes as punishment for their non vegan lifestyle Yeah. anyyway, look, the next episode of Frank Skinner's Radio dice is out on Wednesday It's another twenty fourteen throwback or about that?
