I can say way beautifully on this actually, because David,
last time you joined us it was a zoom call.
I believe you're at your home. Yes, somehow we ended
up here.
Speaker 1 (00:28):
When I'm over, Why don't do that?
Speaker 3 (00:33):
All three of us would have radio interview in this
studio and we will all be tucked.
Speaker 1 (00:36):
That would be something. Are we allowed we'd be tucked?
What does that mean?
Speaker 2 (00:44):
It was pants down?
Speaker 1 (00:45):
Pants down? And yes, okay, yes, well, I mean I'm game.
Speaker 2 (00:50):
That's what I was worried about.
Speaker 1 (00:51):
I'll do anything to promote these shows.
Speaker 2 (00:54):
I told you, I told you not to play the audio.
Speaker 1 (00:57):
I did tuck in the Little Britain Live show. We
came here in two thousand and seven and one of
the I took off on all my clothes is the
character Sebastian is in love with the Prime Minister. And
I did tuck and we got there I brought aut Okay,
it was only when I saw the video of it
did I realize that you could see my venus and
balls from the when I turned around from the other side.
No one felt to tell me. So I'm we literally
(01:21):
eighteen months and then I finally we filmed it. Oh yeah, what,
no wonder people were laughing they got to see that.
But you've got to have a hobby Ofnue. You've got
to have a hobby, and that's for me.
Speaker 2 (01:34):
So if you want to see David's venus and balls,
potentially he's doing an audience with David.
Speaker 1 (01:39):
By yes, excuse me, excuse me, you won't be seeing
that because I'm doing a family show obviously, and I'm
not doing in the grown up show either. I've grown
out of that. And also I don't want to be.
Speaker 4 (01:52):
You just said you were a game.
Speaker 1 (01:54):
Well I'm game now because we're in those four guys
in a room together, I mean.
Speaker 3 (01:58):
There's a room of people out size, there's four women
looking at us.
Speaker 1 (02:02):
Well, you can draw the curtain, calm we.
Speaker 3 (02:06):
And also, hilariously, your back is to the window, so
you'd have the same problem.
Speaker 1 (02:13):
Let's not do it.
Speaker 2 (02:15):
It would be seriously remiss of us not to mention
the other interview that you've done on Kiss since you've
been here.
Speaker 4 (02:20):
Yes, the clash with Kyle.
Speaker 2 (02:22):
There's obviously a lot of people asking whether or not
that's a real thing.
Speaker 1 (02:26):
I was a bit surprised that he didn't let anyone
else speak, So he hasn't already stay on a subject
for very long.
Speaker 2 (02:33):
If you haven't heard it, this is the bit.
Speaker 1 (02:35):
Do you go in a darkened room and cry? No,
really you should try.
Speaker 5 (02:39):
I'm not a comedian. That's what comedians do.
Speaker 2 (02:42):
Saturday, the Fish of October.
Speaker 5 (02:47):
It's softened me.
Speaker 1 (02:48):
Do you think you'll live to see him reet his
teenage years?
Speaker 2 (02:52):
No?
Speaker 1 (02:53):
How has he had this career? I mean it seems
I was homeless.
Speaker 5 (02:56):
I was eating out of the bin.
Speaker 1 (02:58):
It will be again.
Speaker 5 (03:01):
Our securities at the door.
Speaker 1 (03:02):
Thank you very much. You've been charming, as have you,
my friend. It was interesting.
Speaker 2 (03:09):
The security thing for me made it sound very fake effectively.
Speaker 1 (03:14):
Well, yeah, I didn't even know, but I saw a
clip and there's some security like that. Yeah, but I
wasn't They didn't actually have to use the security guy.
Speaker 2 (03:22):
No, I didn't sounded a bit stage, But was there
some real heat between you and Carl you were going back.
Speaker 1 (03:29):
I mean for me, it was more pity. That's his
style though, isn't it like wind winding people up? Yeah?
Speaker 2 (03:39):
I thought it seemed okay. Then the security thing seem stage,
but then they.
Speaker 1 (03:42):
He brings every subject back to himself as well.
Speaker 2 (03:45):
Here's then the following day, which made me think that
maybe there was something kind of legitimate about it. Have listened.
Speaker 1 (03:51):
That was fun.
Speaker 5 (03:52):
And then in the newspaper they wrote as if it
was real, he was taking the piss I was taking
so behind the scenes, the reality of the bullshit story
is that I went to shake his handyway coming and
gave me a cuddle.
Speaker 1 (04:03):
You were great.
Speaker 3 (04:04):
Yeah, And also after the interview started following us, I
think if he didn't want to come back, he's not
going to start following the show.
Speaker 1 (04:13):
Yeah. Well, afterwards, when I hugged him, he had an erection,
but it was a bit like as a as a
wardrobe ever fell on you with a key still in
the lock. Honestly, what it was like it felt like No,
(04:33):
I like he was funny. You know, I'd never drink
with him. He's an interesting guy. Some of the best celebrities.
You kind of love to hate them. I don't mean
that as an insult, but you know people that sort
of a bit winder, you know, like Jeremy Clark's Simon.
He kind of annoys you, but at the same time
you go back for more, and.
Speaker 2 (04:51):
They entertaining to have a drink with Well, I'm not sure.
Speaker 1 (04:53):
I'd actually.
Speaker 2 (04:57):

I'm not very I'm not I'm not.
Speaker 1 (09:17):
Good at tennis. I've seen tennis. I went to the
Royal reel in Wimbledon, the Royal and we sat behind
William and Kate Wow, and so we chatted to them
for quite a long time. Very nice and of course
it's all televised. So my mum, you know, next day
in the supermarket, she was getting come up to her. Yeah,
and we were chatting. Actually was when the Queen was
still alive. We were chatting about the queen because she
(09:40):
wasn't finding it easy to walk around, but she didn't
want to wear flat shoes. Oh it's funny, is sorry?
An old lady who's now dead. What's so funny about
what came?
Speaker 3 (09:54):
What happened in my head?
Speaker 1 (09:55):

Speaker 3 (09:57):
I know Victoria Beckham can't walk now in any issue
about high he was actually literally can't.
Speaker 1 (10:04):
So what's that got to? I'm sorry? So you were
thinking about someone else. I don't believe you for a second.
Speaker 4 (10:10):
That's what my mind does.
Speaker 2 (10:12):
You're thinking you can't make what you feel guilty. He's
like a little puppy dog. You're just taking his heart out.
Speaker 4 (10:20):
Melting right now. He's absolutely melting.
Speaker 1 (10:22):
That's not fair. No, I haven't played tennis with Russell Crowe.
Speaker 2 (10:26):
That's good.
Speaker 1 (10:26):
That was that was the answer to that question. But
I have met members of the role family. Do you
ever have a I do often?
Speaker 2 (10:33):
Yes, What am I doing here. I can't believe.
Speaker 1 (10:38):
All the time, and I think I think that's healthy. Otherwise, Oh, yes,
well this was meant to happen. Yeah, But you know
the thing is you meet people, and often very well
known people, and but they're just people, and you've got
to remember that, however, in all you are well. When
when actually this is a question that this is an answer,
where this is a story that involves Okay, it can be.
(11:00):
I'm sorry, I've had a late night. It So me
and Russell Crowe were in New York and we went
to see Elton in Concerto Madison Square Garden.
Speaker 2 (11:11):
All your mates, all together, friends that ever, just.
Speaker 1 (11:15):
Wait because there's more to this story. So we me
and Russell went backstage after the show to see Russell.
Sorry to see Elton. Me and Russell went backstage off
the show to see Elton, and when we got to
his dressing they said, I was just wait to meet
He's in with somebody. And we waited patiently outside and
then out came Bill Clinton and he recognized Russell. Hey, Russell,
(11:35):
I was watching one of your movies last night, home alone,
and Russell Crowe went on, I'm not in the home
alone and Bill Clinton went, no, no, I was. I
was home alone watching mone of your movies. And then
I went to something recently and I met Bill Clinton. Again.
(11:57):
I wasn't gon say I met you, but he went
and when he came towards me, when don't tell me
I know the face. I know the face somewhere. And
then I said, I said, okay, what's Donald Trump like?
He's very good golfer, good golfer, but he cheats at
golf even when he's winning. And that's kind of all
(12:18):
you need to know? So much sense? Wow, what else
would you like?
Speaker 3 (12:23):
I've got one more question for you, just one if
you've got a question, not yet, but during this question
something something.
Speaker 1 (12:30):
Possible. Do you ever make a meaningful contribution to the
show very occasional?
Speaker 4 (12:35):
Yes, okay, and we make a big sung in dance
about it.
Speaker 1 (12:38):
It's very good.
Speaker 2 (12:39):
So do you eat?
Speaker 1 (12:40):
He's brilliant. He's actually brilliant. So he won a competition,
did he?
Speaker 6 (12:48):
So?
Speaker 1 (12:49):
Yes?
Speaker 4 (12:49):
Well I know that. Like it's obviously a little little Britain.
Speaker 2 (12:53):
Got a whole bunch of hot water likes my pencil
comics like.
Speaker 1 (12:56):
You will do after this this segment.
Speaker 4 (13:00):
I'm going to go to this sad.
Speaker 2 (13:02):
So Little Britain obviously got a lot of hot water
and then went off air in Australia.
Speaker 1 (13:08):
Oh did it in the on the A B.
Speaker 2 (13:09):
It was on the ABC.
Speaker 4 (13:10):
They took it off many many many years, like many
moons ago. Did you know that?
Speaker 6 (13:16):
No?
Speaker 1 (13:16):
I didn't, but thank you for mentioning it. It's really
it's really made me happy. I thought, well, I can't
be canceled in Australia, but it seems I have been.
I thank you very much for the interview. To finish,
you can come and see Little Britain characters in an
(13:36):
audience with David Won as I come out as a
Little Characters.
Speaker 2 (13:40):
I was like, this is cool that you're doing Little
Britain stuff in Australia just.
Speaker 1 (13:46):
Because basically you're a persona non grata in this in
this country.
Speaker 4 (13:51):
Well, I know, not necessarily. I just think it's I
just I.
Speaker 1 (13:54):
Didn't get arrested and it was an arrest all. Yes,
there's been a sort of you know, there's just spin.
The culture has moved on. But tell you what breaks
my heart.
Speaker 2 (14:06):
Because there's a bunch of stuff that you that you wrote,
that you're attached to, that you're passionate about that gets
removed for a certain reason that would suck.
Speaker 1 (14:14):
Well, people can watch it on YouTube and still laugh
and everything, And I think maybe things are going to
settle down in a bit and people are going to
kind of understand that humor is not to be taken
too seriously and too literally. Not worry about it, and you.
Speaker 4 (14:27):
Can still get the live day a day where we
say you can.
Speaker 1 (14:30):
Get the live d V day. It's a challenging wank,
but you know you might be able to manage it
all right, can you say challenging an audience which also
is a challenging.
Speaker 2 (14:47):
And the Day Volumes book show gets it tgddy dot com.
Thank you, David.
Speaker 1 (14:52):
I really helped tell those family shows, no, I'm not
taking you to that
