Hello, or welcome to Jason new Land dot com. My

2
00:00:11.480 --> 00:00:15.679
name's Jason Newland. Please only listen when you can safety

3
00:00:15.679 --> 00:00:19.559
close your eyes. This is let Me boy the Sleep,

4
00:00:19.640 --> 00:00:27.879
and this is Monday's Boring Objects Wife. That was loud

5
00:00:28.160 --> 00:00:36.000
what I thought I would do. I've just seen something

6
00:00:39.640 --> 00:00:47.880
AI created teaser trailer, Disney teaser trailer. AI created snow

7
00:00:47.880 --> 00:00:52.920
White starring Samuel Jackson and got Samuel Jackson dressed to

8
00:00:53.039 --> 00:00:59.600
snow white and it's just a funny picture. Hey they

9
00:00:59.719 --> 00:01:07.000
still I don't think there's anything he couldn't pull off these.

10
00:01:07.280 --> 00:01:10.480
I don't know Samuel L. Jackson. What if they put

11
00:01:10.560 --> 00:01:14.000
Samuel Jackson and they didn't put the L for copyright issues.

12
00:01:15.159 --> 00:01:22.120
Maybe I've got Facebook page called Jason Newland's Boring Group.

13
00:01:23.040 --> 00:01:28.680
It's a Facebook group, so please join the YouTube channel

14
00:01:29.040 --> 00:01:36.040
at Jason Newland where I have thousands of videos. I've

15
00:01:36.040 --> 00:01:38.879
also got my latest one, which I did kind of

16
00:01:39.040 --> 00:01:41.319
say the word of it. I can't say that, pronounce

17
00:01:41.359 --> 00:01:49.599
the word. Let me bore your pagaphobia away, and that's

18
00:01:49.640 --> 00:01:54.599
like swallowing phobia or fear of swallowing. So I did

19
00:01:54.599 --> 00:02:09.800
that earlier specific because I had there's the other day

20
00:02:11.599 --> 00:02:15.280
I was in the I was taken Vinnie out. Can

21
00:02:15.319 --> 00:02:18.240
you hear that someone shouting in the garden? Can you

22
00:02:18.240 --> 00:02:24.080
hear that every day? Like sometimes fall in the morning,

23
00:02:24.240 --> 00:02:35.120
sometimes eleven at night? Where are and yeah, So I

24
00:02:35.199 --> 00:02:38.400
was I think it was Saturday, either Friday or Saturday

25
00:02:38.520 --> 00:02:42.680
morning in the park with Vinnie talking to some people,

26
00:02:43.280 --> 00:02:49.439
and one of the people mentioned that their grandson, their grandchild,

27
00:02:50.280 --> 00:02:57.319
had uh this condition. So I thought, while I'd offer

28
00:02:57.479 --> 00:03:01.479
my help, and of course they still need to go

29
00:03:01.560 --> 00:03:05.039
through the medical processes and stuff to eliminate which is

30
00:03:05.280 --> 00:03:08.599
what is going through. But I did offer my help.

31
00:03:08.639 --> 00:03:11.960
I said, well, you know two things I used to

32
00:03:12.000 --> 00:03:16.680
counsel children, and not that I'm not offering counseling, but

33
00:03:17.879 --> 00:03:23.639
I can maybe help you know, with some hypnosis techniques

34
00:03:23.680 --> 00:03:27.280
and stuff. You'll be in a room with me. I'll

35
00:03:27.280 --> 00:03:29.479
come around yours and you'll be there with me, sitting

36
00:03:29.520 --> 00:03:33.199
with him or her wherever the kid was. So, you know,

37
00:03:33.520 --> 00:03:36.000
it's just I thought it'd be nice thing to offer,

38
00:03:36.039 --> 00:03:39.240
but they didn't get back to me. I gave them

39
00:03:39.240 --> 00:03:44.039
my email address I didn't have at my website. I

40
00:03:44.159 --> 00:03:46.639
never go out. I just didn't have my telephone number

41
00:03:46.639 --> 00:03:51.879
on me. But I've offered my services to local people

42
00:03:54.240 --> 00:04:04.680
on one two three? Can you hear that? Blind me?

43
00:04:07.840 --> 00:04:11.599
Do you imagine having such a loud voice but not

44
00:04:11.719 --> 00:04:19.279
knowing it's loud. The ironic thing is the garden where

45
00:04:19.319 --> 00:04:21.480
the dog is they shout out for the dog is

46
00:04:21.560 --> 00:04:30.560
literally yeah, it's tiny, so it's not like they've got

47
00:04:30.600 --> 00:04:32.600
to travel the other side of a field or something.

48
00:04:36.000 --> 00:04:42.680
Who go figure, Well, so I did this recording thinking

49
00:04:42.720 --> 00:04:45.279
because I didn't I didn't get back to me, and

50
00:04:46.680 --> 00:04:49.000
I think it's because maybe I'm a bit weird. I

51
00:04:49.040 --> 00:04:51.240
come across a bit weird to people. I don't know

52
00:04:51.279 --> 00:04:54.959
what it is. Or maybe they think that why why

53
00:04:55.000 --> 00:04:57.920
are you offering this service but you're not you're not

54
00:04:58.079 --> 00:05:01.480
charging or I guess so don't they just see me

55
00:05:01.519 --> 00:05:06.240
as a dog walker, not as someone that maybe I

56
00:05:06.399 --> 00:05:15.959
can do something that has something to offer. See, I

57
00:05:15.959 --> 00:05:25.360
wonder how much loudish she's going to get? How loud

58
00:05:25.439 --> 00:05:39.639
is that on the microphone? Blame me? So I did

59
00:05:39.639 --> 00:05:44.759
this recording. Let me bore your faga pegga. It's either

60
00:05:44.839 --> 00:05:51.879
fagophobia or pagaphobia. I think pagaphobia would probably sound better

61
00:05:51.920 --> 00:05:53.839
than the other one because that sounds a bit wrong,

62
00:05:55.360 --> 00:06:01.360
and yeah, so what I'll do is I've so I've

63
00:06:01.360 --> 00:06:06.759
made those recordings, uploaded them to the podcasts. Just I

64
00:06:06.800 --> 00:06:12.639
guess you never know. Maybe the child in question never

65
00:06:12.680 --> 00:06:15.360
gets to hear it, but maybe, And it's not just

66
00:06:15.399 --> 00:06:19.240
for kids, it's for anyone. It might be useful to

67
00:06:19.240 --> 00:06:22.680
someone out there who's having issues with swallowing, who has

68
00:06:22.959 --> 00:06:29.480
a fear due to previously had a choking incident or

69
00:06:29.480 --> 00:06:32.040
something like that. So that's why I did it. I

70
00:06:32.079 --> 00:06:34.120
put it out there. There's a little bit of humor

71
00:06:34.160 --> 00:06:37.639
in it. It's you know, it's not like super serious recording.

72
00:06:38.639 --> 00:06:44.360
It's about forty three minutes long. I think, forty three minutes,

73
00:06:44.560 --> 00:06:48.800
forty six minutes. It's not really that important as it,

74
00:06:48.839 --> 00:06:53.319
but it's forty two minutes and three seconds. Did it

75
00:06:53.319 --> 00:06:56.680
this morning? It's okay. I mean, it might be a

76
00:06:56.680 --> 00:07:00.120
part of crap, but it's it's to be honest, I

77
00:07:00.120 --> 00:07:06.600
don't know, but it might be useful to someone and

78
00:07:07.279 --> 00:07:10.680
the only thing they're going to lose is that the

79
00:07:10.720 --> 00:07:15.319
worst case scenario is that the person listened to it

80
00:07:15.360 --> 00:07:19.319
even feels a bit more relaxed at the end of it,

81
00:07:19.360 --> 00:07:24.120
maybe has a giggle has a laugh during it, and

82
00:07:25.160 --> 00:07:28.319
perhaps like feels that they've wasted forty two minutes of

83
00:07:28.360 --> 00:07:33.439
their life. That's the worst case scenario. The best case

84
00:07:33.480 --> 00:07:40.879
scenario is that it actually helps. And yeah, so that's it.

85
00:07:41.000 --> 00:07:45.680
That's why I did that recording. I've been pretty good

86
00:07:45.680 --> 00:07:49.040
with the old let Me Boy to Sleep podcasts. I've

87
00:07:49.079 --> 00:07:57.279
done one every day since I don't know, it's been

88
00:07:57.279 --> 00:08:07.040
a while. That's weird. Why a minute Sunday Papers Monday?

89
00:08:07.959 --> 00:08:12.199
I didn't upload Monday boring objects? Okay, I did, but

90
00:08:12.319 --> 00:08:16.000
not for the not on YouTube. Unless I did a video,

91
00:08:16.240 --> 00:08:20.800
It's possible. Did I do a video Monday boror and objects?

92
00:08:22.959 --> 00:08:28.680
Clearing windows, Whisper, Whisper, Whisper, Whisper Whisper twenty ninth of March,

93
00:08:31.600 --> 00:08:47.039
Sunday's Papers, Trivia Tuesday. Oh, that's weird, never mind six,

94
00:08:47.559 --> 00:08:54.320
I know that last Sundays, Sundays, Sundays Sundays Whisper Wednesdays

95
00:08:54.320 --> 00:08:59.120
Trivia Tuesdays Sunday Papers. Maybe I didn't do it Monday's

96
00:08:59.120 --> 00:09:03.679
boring objects like this week, I can't remember. I said

97
00:09:03.759 --> 00:09:09.440
a look, did I moving things? Whisper? Wednesdays? Trivia Tuesdays?

98
00:09:10.120 --> 00:09:14.159
I did the doc job d O c K job

99
00:09:14.600 --> 00:09:17.519
Monday's borrowing Objects. So I did do one last Monday

100
00:09:18.480 --> 00:09:26.759
and did Sunday papers, so yeah, every day it's a Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday,

101
00:09:28.159 --> 00:09:31.360
Sunday and now Monday. So it's nine days in a

102
00:09:31.440 --> 00:09:34.120
row that I've made a let me boy, you to sleep.

103
00:09:36.919 --> 00:09:40.639
I'm going to talk about Big Brother, the TV show

104
00:09:41.799 --> 00:09:47.799
that's my Monday's boring objects because it starts today at

105
00:09:47.879 --> 00:09:53.120
nine pm again and it's a celebrity version, and I

106
00:09:53.080 --> 00:09:55.600
am looking forward to it. Oh yes, so yes, so yes,

107
00:09:55.639 --> 00:09:59.159
so yes, so yes, which is why I'm making this

108
00:09:59.240 --> 00:10:05.080
recording at four thirty eight pm as opposed to seven

109
00:10:05.200 --> 00:10:10.440
thirty eight pm, because I want to get it done

110
00:10:10.480 --> 00:10:13.559
while I've got the energy. Not get it done like

111
00:10:13.639 --> 00:10:16.840
god like as a chore, but have it all completed

112
00:10:19.840 --> 00:10:24.200
and then I can relax and watch celebrity Big Brother.

113
00:10:25.080 --> 00:10:28.480
Yes yes, yes, yes, yes yes yes so that would

114
00:10:28.519 --> 00:10:33.200
be groovy. So I'm just going to think back to

115
00:10:33.960 --> 00:10:39.480
the Big Brother. I'm trying to think when I first

116
00:10:41.399 --> 00:10:44.399
when did it Big Brother start? Was it two thousand?

117
00:10:45.559 --> 00:10:50.879
Big Brother UK? I think it was two thousand the

118
00:10:51.000 --> 00:10:57.159
very first episode I know it was based on Danish.

119
00:10:57.360 --> 00:11:07.639
Was it Danish? Yeah, it was two thousand, two thousand

120
00:11:07.840 --> 00:11:15.559
was the first series, and have a Look two thousand

121
00:11:15.600 --> 00:11:21.480
to twenty ten on Channel four and then Channel five

122
00:11:21.600 --> 00:11:26.679
had it from twenty eleven to twenty eighteen, and then

123
00:11:26.679 --> 00:11:32.879
it started gaining twenty twenty three. So having that four

124
00:11:32.960 --> 00:11:36.279
years off or five years, yeah, four years or whatever off,

125
00:11:37.080 --> 00:11:41.879
I think it was good because it was nice to

126
00:11:41.879 --> 00:11:48.480
have a break from it in a sense of realizing that,

127
00:11:51.000 --> 00:11:53.120
which is how excited I was when it came back

128
00:11:53.320 --> 00:11:59.000
in twenty twenty three. I know it's not for everyone,

129
00:11:59.200 --> 00:12:01.159
you know, it's not one's going to like it, but

130
00:12:01.279 --> 00:12:04.720
some people like different things, which is why there's so

131
00:12:04.720 --> 00:12:10.480
many different types of programs on. But AH loved it

132
00:12:10.720 --> 00:12:14.960
right from the start. Now I don't know what day

133
00:12:15.080 --> 00:12:19.279
it was it started. I'd watch it during the week

134
00:12:20.759 --> 00:12:24.360
in two thousand, but I never got a chance to

135
00:12:24.440 --> 00:12:29.960
see and it's probably repeated on a Sunday maybe, which

136
00:12:29.960 --> 00:12:32.080
I think it was The Eviction. I think it was

137
00:12:32.120 --> 00:12:35.519
repeated on a Sunday morning. But I never got to

138
00:12:35.559 --> 00:12:43.840
see The Eviction life apart from maybe once because I

139
00:12:43.840 --> 00:12:49.159
was always busy on a Friday night and eviction nights

140
00:12:49.600 --> 00:12:56.759
al was Friday, although Launch Night I'm pretty sure it

141
00:12:56.840 --> 00:12:59.919
used to be a Friday as well, but this one

142
00:13:00.240 --> 00:13:05.200
starting on Monday for some reason. I'm pretty sure last

143
00:13:05.360 --> 00:13:12.440
Launch Night was Sunday, so I would watch it all

144
00:13:12.480 --> 00:13:18.679
the way through the week, so and I'm pretty sure

145
00:13:18.720 --> 00:13:20.600
it was on Sundays, or it might not have been.

146
00:13:21.039 --> 00:13:26.039
I think they've always taken one day off. Maybe they haven't,

147
00:13:27.120 --> 00:13:31.360
it's not one hundred percent, but nowadays they have it

148
00:13:31.440 --> 00:13:43.000
on Monday Night, Tuesday Night, Wednesday Night, Thursday Night. Oh yeah, Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday,

149
00:13:43.480 --> 00:13:48.440
and then Friday's Eviction Night, and then they have Saturday

150
00:13:48.519 --> 00:13:52.759
night off on the TV show. They don't all go home,

151
00:13:53.080 --> 00:13:56.679
they still staying there in the house. I think part

152
00:13:56.720 --> 00:14:02.159
of the reason really, and it makes sense because on

153
00:14:02.279 --> 00:14:06.120
the Friday, they've used so much of the Friday up

154
00:14:06.240 --> 00:14:12.320
already for the eviction night because of showing stuff that

155
00:14:12.399 --> 00:14:16.120
happened just before the eviction, and they showed the eviction live,

156
00:14:16.960 --> 00:14:20.799
so really Saturday on Sunday they can show part of

157
00:14:20.960 --> 00:14:24.840
Friday like after the eviction and then the Saturday, so

158
00:14:24.879 --> 00:14:26.519
it kind of makes sense to have a day off

159
00:14:32.759 --> 00:14:37.399
and I really liked it right from this very very start.

160
00:14:39.799 --> 00:14:44.840
Oh yeah, I don't know what it is about it.

161
00:14:44.919 --> 00:14:49.720
I just I like the idea. I guess. You know,

162
00:14:49.799 --> 00:14:54.039
it is a psychological study. That's what it was originally,

163
00:14:55.000 --> 00:14:58.919
and I still think of it as being that. Really

164
00:15:00.320 --> 00:15:10.000
watching people's interactions and the personality clashes. I don't watch

165
00:15:10.039 --> 00:15:14.159
it just for the arguments. That's just the bonus, I guess,

166
00:15:14.519 --> 00:15:18.240
because something it can be funny, it can sometimes it

167
00:15:18.279 --> 00:15:21.240
can be a little bit gringy, you know, a little

168
00:15:21.240 --> 00:15:28.600
bit awkward, unnecessary, or even playing up for the cameras.

169
00:15:28.639 --> 00:15:33.919
There's a little bit of that sometimes. But after a

170
00:15:33.960 --> 00:15:40.399
certain amount of time, after a few days, the persona

171
00:15:42.679 --> 00:15:45.039
that the person has seems to drop a little bit.

172
00:15:45.480 --> 00:15:48.360
The mask drops. Because of being filmed twenty four hours

173
00:15:48.360 --> 00:15:51.919
a day. It's hard to keep up a pretense twenty

174
00:15:51.919 --> 00:15:58.919
four hours a day. Plus it's you know, it's natural

175
00:15:58.960 --> 00:16:03.559
for us to be a little bit different in different situations.

176
00:16:04.919 --> 00:16:10.759
You know, I'm I'm much more relaxed when I'm sitting

177
00:16:10.759 --> 00:16:13.200
at home than i am when I'm walking through the streets.

178
00:16:14.840 --> 00:16:16.960
When I say walking through the streets, I'm not talking

179
00:16:17.000 --> 00:16:20.840
about applying for trade. I'm saying walking through the streets,

180
00:16:21.600 --> 00:16:25.039
and I don't you know, I'm a bit more on guard,

181
00:16:25.120 --> 00:16:29.039
a bit more alert when I'm out from walking in

182
00:16:29.200 --> 00:16:31.600
shops or whatever. Not that I go out that much,

183
00:16:31.639 --> 00:16:38.879
but when I'm sitting here, it's relaxed. There's a different feeling.

184
00:16:40.080 --> 00:16:42.720
And I'm sure that if I was in a Big

185
00:16:42.759 --> 00:16:47.440
Brother house, which I never will be, I would probably

186
00:16:47.440 --> 00:16:56.279
hate every second of it. Sleeping in a room with others. No, no,

187
00:16:57.200 --> 00:17:04.200
I've lived in a dormitory. Didn't like it, then, No, yeah,

188
00:17:04.279 --> 00:17:09.240
that wouldn't suit me. I mean it would go I

189
00:17:09.279 --> 00:17:11.359
think it would go two ways. I mean, first of all,

190
00:17:11.400 --> 00:17:18.759
I'm not I couldn't fit the criteria of well, there's

191
00:17:18.799 --> 00:17:23.319
a degree of falseness that happens in the house in

192
00:17:23.440 --> 00:17:28.279
the one in the UK. I've never does America have

193
00:17:28.400 --> 00:17:32.880
Big Brother I don't even know. I know they have

194
00:17:32.960 --> 00:17:42.720
it all around the world, but Big Brother USA they do,

195
00:17:44.400 --> 00:17:46.599
see I would like to see that. I don't know why.

196
00:17:47.519 --> 00:17:50.599
Why can't we just have like a channel? And this

197
00:17:50.720 --> 00:17:54.519
is going to seem weird, but I bet you anything

198
00:17:55.000 --> 00:18:00.720
do it gets probably millions of views every day if

199
00:18:00.799 --> 00:18:04.640
there was a channel or and like a like an app,

200
00:18:05.119 --> 00:18:07.759
like YouTube kind of channel so people can watch on

201
00:18:07.880 --> 00:18:11.759
TV or on their phone or whatever. Just Big Brother

202
00:18:13.319 --> 00:18:18.640
and every series from every country, from every year, just

203
00:18:18.720 --> 00:18:22.400
in categories and people can watch it millions of views

204
00:18:22.440 --> 00:18:28.440
every day. That's what I think. Just charge a pound

205
00:18:28.519 --> 00:18:35.599
a month, the millions of pounds coming in a month,

206
00:18:36.640 --> 00:18:39.359
there'll be a bit of a you know. That's what

207
00:18:39.480 --> 00:18:43.039
I think about some of the sort of really old

208
00:18:43.160 --> 00:18:49.599
TV shows, or I don't know every episode, so I'd

209
00:18:49.759 --> 00:18:53.680
like to have access to every episode of stuff that

210
00:18:53.759 --> 00:19:01.759
I've watched, or even radio show, just to have that.

211
00:19:02.319 --> 00:19:04.000
I'm trying to think there was one thing that I

212
00:19:04.160 --> 00:19:06.720
thought about it would be good to have access to

213
00:19:06.880 --> 00:19:09.359
every episode, but I can't think what it is right now.

214
00:19:10.400 --> 00:19:16.799
Maybe it was Big Brother. Possibly it was, and very

215
00:19:17.039 --> 00:19:23.079
likely I'd watch every episode from start to finish well

216
00:19:23.200 --> 00:19:24.839
for a while, and then I'd probably get fed up

217
00:19:24.880 --> 00:19:29.680
with it. But the format was so different. I did

218
00:19:29.759 --> 00:19:32.400
actually watch the launch show for the very first Big

219
00:19:32.480 --> 00:19:38.599
Brother in the UK, and it wasn't glamorous at all.

220
00:19:40.000 --> 00:19:42.880
They were almost like walking in dirts get into a

221
00:19:42.960 --> 00:19:46.279
warehouse in the middle of nowhere, which was just up

222
00:19:46.319 --> 00:19:48.319
the road from where I lived. It was on the

223
00:19:48.359 --> 00:19:55.200
docklands somewhere, I think, and if I'm correct, it was

224
00:19:55.279 --> 00:20:00.240
in the same place as where the Big Break She

225
00:20:00.319 --> 00:20:05.200
used to be filmed around that area, but I might

226
00:20:05.319 --> 00:20:17.119
be wrong. Stores narrated by Dave Walsh. Okay, Philip Procter,

227
00:20:19.279 --> 00:20:22.920
I'll BlimE me, let's go back. Who's been We've had

228
00:20:22.960 --> 00:20:28.039
a lot of American actors and singers and stuff in

229
00:20:29.200 --> 00:20:35.279
the UK Big Brother, but I've got no idea who's

230
00:20:35.400 --> 00:20:38.839
been in the American version. And I mean, if they've

231
00:20:39.200 --> 00:20:43.759
if that's if they do her a celebrity version or not,

232
00:20:43.960 --> 00:20:52.240
I don't know, do they anyone? Anyone? So two thousand

233
00:20:52.720 --> 00:20:59.119
July seventy episodes than they did they've had one to

234
00:20:59.720 --> 00:21:06.119
A nine, ten, eighteen. Okay, right, so there was a

235
00:21:06.279 --> 00:21:16.240
celebrity There's been twenty six years or twenty six, yeah,

236
00:21:17.400 --> 00:21:21.480
twenty six seasons of Big Brother in America. The last

237
00:21:21.559 --> 00:21:29.640
song was finished October last year. So I'm just wondering,

238
00:21:32.000 --> 00:21:36.519
is there a did they do a there's one here,

239
00:21:36.599 --> 00:21:46.359
says Ott. What does OTT stand for? I'm confused now,

240
00:21:47.480 --> 00:21:49.599
but yeah, celebrity. I don't know if they did a

241
00:21:49.640 --> 00:21:52.960
celebrity version or not. You can I'm just looking through it.

242
00:21:53.799 --> 00:21:57.160
But what they did have which I found interesting in

243
00:21:57.279 --> 00:22:01.960
the very first Big Brother in the UK, when I'm

244
00:22:02.119 --> 00:22:04.160
going to stop saying UK because that's the one, I'm

245
00:22:04.359 --> 00:22:09.119
the only one I've ever watched, so in the UK

246
00:22:09.319 --> 00:22:13.519
Big Brother, I can't stop saying it now. There was

247
00:22:14.119 --> 00:22:20.359
a live feed which you could watch and it was

248
00:22:20.480 --> 00:22:25.079
on you know what. I don't even know where it

249
00:22:25.240 --> 00:22:28.119
was on. Where could you watch it? I think it

250
00:22:28.240 --> 00:22:32.119
was on Channel four during the night, but they also

251
00:22:32.200 --> 00:22:35.440
had it on during the day as well, so I

252
00:22:35.519 --> 00:22:37.720
don't know if you had to go online to watch it.

253
00:22:39.680 --> 00:22:45.599
But what they did is whenever anyone swore or talked

254
00:22:45.599 --> 00:22:51.960
about something that was perhaps controversial, like in the background here,

255
00:22:52.039 --> 00:22:58.039
you'd hear the birds singing, so they'd basically muffle out

256
00:22:58.200 --> 00:23:01.559
their voices and have the birds like that for a

257
00:23:01.599 --> 00:23:04.119
bit of time, which got a little a little bit

258
00:23:04.119 --> 00:23:07.400
annoying because I wanted to hear what they were saying,

259
00:23:07.440 --> 00:23:09.119
because that's the bits you want to hear, isn't it

260
00:23:09.400 --> 00:23:11.039
the bits you're not supposed to look, it's the bit

261
00:23:11.160 --> 00:23:13.759
you're not allowed to I want to hear those bits.

262
00:23:16.519 --> 00:23:20.400
I mean, he's not eating his dinner today. It's a

263
00:23:20.480 --> 00:23:24.359
bit annoying. No, come on, Vinny, you know you don't bark.

264
00:23:25.119 --> 00:23:28.039
You do not bark when we're doing a recording. I

265
00:23:28.119 --> 00:23:30.519
hope that wasn't too loud. It's just a little bark,

266
00:23:30.799 --> 00:23:35.960
So hopefully it's okay. He's now looking my foot. Oh

267
00:23:37.000 --> 00:23:41.640
good girl. So there was that. Yeah, there was the

268
00:23:41.759 --> 00:23:48.720
live stream. I don't know if I actually watched the

269
00:23:48.920 --> 00:23:52.720
very first episode or not. I think I did, though,

270
00:23:52.759 --> 00:23:57.200
because I've been interested in psychology for that most of

271
00:23:57.359 --> 00:24:00.720
my well pretty much my whole adult life. It's just

272
00:24:01.519 --> 00:24:08.880
interests me. Maybe not enough to it to complete a degree,

273
00:24:08.960 --> 00:24:14.480
but hey, I was interested in the subject. It fascinates me.

274
00:24:14.839 --> 00:24:19.240
But the human mind and trying to figure out why

275
00:24:19.400 --> 00:24:22.640
people do and say what they do and say, just

276
00:24:23.960 --> 00:24:31.559
trying to figure it out. Yes, it's difficult, but this

277
00:24:31.839 --> 00:24:34.759
was I just thought it was a really really interesting

278
00:24:34.839 --> 00:24:37.839
experiment to put all these people didn't know each other

279
00:24:39.279 --> 00:24:46.559
together inside. Vinny, if you bark, we will be having words.

280
00:24:47.359 --> 00:24:50.759
I don't mind. You got a little like that, which

281
00:24:50.799 --> 00:24:53.880
isn't a bark. And we're quite early in the recording,

282
00:24:54.039 --> 00:24:56.960
so hopefully it's not disturbed anyone. But if you start

283
00:24:57.039 --> 00:24:59.079
doing that when we're like a little bit further in,

284
00:25:00.519 --> 00:25:06.559
I will be so disappointed. I won't be angry. I'm

285
00:25:06.599 --> 00:25:12.640
not angry. I'm just passionate. Okay, I'm shouting, but I'm

286
00:25:12.640 --> 00:25:16.079
not angry. I'm passionate. Okay, you're you're You're not angry,

287
00:25:16.079 --> 00:25:23.440
You're passionate. Okay, good, okay, sure sure, sure there's someone

288
00:25:23.559 --> 00:25:30.440
slamming doors downstairs. I don't know who that is. So yeah,

289
00:25:31.240 --> 00:25:33.839
I remember watching it, and it was quite good because

290
00:25:33.839 --> 00:25:37.759
i'd be busy on a Friday night, but then on

291
00:25:37.880 --> 00:25:44.039
a Saturday morning, I could to be I might have

292
00:25:44.079 --> 00:25:48.160
actually recorded it on video from the Friday night, but

293
00:25:48.240 --> 00:25:55.000
I do believe my memory is telling me that they

294
00:25:55.119 --> 00:25:59.599
used to replay the live final on a Saturday morning,

295
00:25:59.720 --> 00:26:02.640
so I would see it on a Saturday morning, maybe

296
00:26:02.680 --> 00:26:09.599
with a Sunday morning, but I would watch it. So yeah,

297
00:26:10.160 --> 00:26:13.480
it was quite difficult to avoid it though, because it

298
00:26:13.640 --> 00:26:18.240
was big news at the time. Right. I just had

299
00:26:18.279 --> 00:26:22.200
to take a slight little break there because Vinnie was

300
00:26:22.200 --> 00:26:29.160
getting a little bit interested in whatever was going on

301
00:26:30.000 --> 00:26:33.240
downstairs or upstairs or in the garden. I don't know

302
00:26:34.599 --> 00:26:37.880
a bit of banging. I mean, my neighbor's still having

303
00:26:37.920 --> 00:26:42.839
his kitchen done, so it might have been that. Although

304
00:26:42.880 --> 00:26:46.039
he's been pretty good today, as long as I keep

305
00:26:46.119 --> 00:26:50.400
him in the living room, keep the door closed, make

306
00:26:50.480 --> 00:26:53.759
sure there's some music or the Telly's on as a distraction,

307
00:26:54.079 --> 00:27:07.960
he's fine. So who was I? I've got some bones

308
00:27:08.000 --> 00:27:13.559
coming from. At some point, I'll tell the Amazon delivery

309
00:27:13.640 --> 00:27:17.599
driver they've got a new thing where it doesn't even

310
00:27:17.640 --> 00:27:20.759
come up Why say he? He or she doesn't even

311
00:27:20.880 --> 00:27:26.880
come upstairs. They just chucked the package outside the door.

312
00:27:28.240 --> 00:27:30.240
My neighbor opposite it. They literally put it in the

313
00:27:31.119 --> 00:27:35.359
left it in the hallway like in the in like

314
00:27:35.920 --> 00:27:38.359
a mine. They just because they're not on camera so

315
00:27:38.440 --> 00:27:42.920
I can see they haven't actually come upstairs, which means

316
00:27:42.960 --> 00:27:47.440
I can never buy anything breakable. I can't trust them.

317
00:27:47.440 --> 00:27:51.039
If they're chucking stuff, you know, not being gentle with things.

318
00:27:51.200 --> 00:27:57.440
Then uh. I sometimes think, I don't know if Amazon

319
00:27:57.559 --> 00:28:00.240
offer this service, do they offer the opportunity to pay

320
00:28:00.319 --> 00:28:03.680
for delivery so that actually gets delivered by the post

321
00:28:03.759 --> 00:28:07.839
office and not by Amazon, so it's more likely it's

322
00:28:07.880 --> 00:28:10.519
going to get delivered with a bit of care. I

323
00:28:10.599 --> 00:28:14.319
don't know, but yeah, I'm not not best impressed with

324
00:28:14.400 --> 00:28:18.200
Amazon delivery these days. Ever, since my microwave was dropped

325
00:28:18.240 --> 00:28:22.319
down the stairs twice. I got it on camera. I

326
00:28:22.359 --> 00:28:28.759
really should put on YouTube, and yeah, it's a bit weird.

327
00:28:29.079 --> 00:28:32.279
I just I don't I don't know if they just not.

328
00:28:34.759 --> 00:28:39.480
I'm not aware that things, parcels shouldn't really be dropped.

329
00:28:40.440 --> 00:28:43.599
I thought that would be I mean, it wasn't his fault.

330
00:28:43.680 --> 00:28:46.079
The person who dropped it down the stairs. Wasn't his

331
00:28:46.240 --> 00:28:48.480
fault that he dropped it slipped out of his hands twice,

332
00:28:51.240 --> 00:28:53.200
but then he didn't do anything about it. He just

333
00:28:53.240 --> 00:28:58.559
still put it on my put it onto the my doorstep,

334
00:29:01.400 --> 00:29:04.359
and it had it was a box with a microwave

335
00:29:04.440 --> 00:29:06.359
on the outside, so you could see it was a microwave,

336
00:29:07.359 --> 00:29:12.920
you know, and it was damaged. So if he has,

337
00:29:13.119 --> 00:29:15.000
if he had anything about him, he would have knocked

338
00:29:15.039 --> 00:29:18.279
and said sorry. You know, I didn't even complain about him.

339
00:29:18.319 --> 00:29:21.599
I did get I got a refund, but I just

340
00:29:22.400 --> 00:29:26.519
couldn't bothered to make a complaint. But you'd think that

341
00:29:27.200 --> 00:29:33.839
whoever was in that situation would have I don't know,

342
00:29:35.880 --> 00:29:37.039
I don't know what it is, what would be the

343
00:29:37.160 --> 00:29:40.480
right I don't know what the right term is, but

344
00:29:43.039 --> 00:29:46.079
I mean, the thing was rattling. He must must have

345
00:29:46.160 --> 00:29:49.079
heard it rattling, because once he'd dropped it down the

346
00:29:49.119 --> 00:29:52.480
stairs twice. The third time he went all the way

347
00:29:52.559 --> 00:29:54.920
up to the stairs and climbed onto the roof and

348
00:29:55.000 --> 00:30:01.000
dropped it down bless him. See. Yeah, that was weird.

349
00:30:01.680 --> 00:30:05.519
I remember my neighbor downstairs calling me in saying, is

350
00:30:05.599 --> 00:30:10.000
that your microwave? I said, yeah, how do you know

351
00:30:10.039 --> 00:30:12.720
I've got a microwave? She said, oh, I saw the

352
00:30:12.759 --> 00:30:18.200
delivery driver dropping it down the stairs twice. I said

353
00:30:18.240 --> 00:30:21.799
what she said, yeah, come down, So I went down

354
00:30:21.960 --> 00:30:23.680
she or did she might just send it to me,

355
00:30:24.440 --> 00:30:26.200
but I think I went down and watched, looked at it.

356
00:30:26.319 --> 00:30:28.960
I still got on my phone. I surf is still

357
00:30:29.000 --> 00:30:36.200
on air? Still on air? Or if I lost it? Uh? So, look,

358
00:30:40.920 --> 00:30:44.279
I know where it is. Where would it be? Where

359
00:30:45.000 --> 00:30:48.519
would it be? Or where would it be? Whe would

360
00:30:48.519 --> 00:30:53.960
it be? Awhere would it be? Where would it be?

361
00:30:56.440 --> 00:31:02.160
Mm hmmm, No, I'll find it. I don't know where

362
00:31:02.200 --> 00:31:05.759
it went. Then I wonder where it went. That's weird.

363
00:31:10.680 --> 00:31:12.799
It was definitely this year, wasn't it. It was this

364
00:31:13.000 --> 00:31:21.920
year in Jane. It was probably two months ago, probably ish,

365
00:31:23.799 --> 00:31:32.160
probably a boot two months ago. It's going to look where. No,

366
00:31:33.759 --> 00:31:46.079
that's very unusual. No, I can't find it. No, it's gone.

367
00:31:48.759 --> 00:31:53.599
Maybe I deleted it. It's probably just saved on the

368
00:31:53.680 --> 00:32:04.480
eye the eye cloud. Probably. Ah videos, okay, sixty two videos.

369
00:32:05.960 --> 00:32:07.759
Do do Do Do Do Do Do Do Do Do.

370
00:32:10.599 --> 00:32:17.240
It's just mainly Vinny. What's that one? I know it's

371
00:32:17.440 --> 00:32:23.160
the washing machine. It's Vinnie. What I'm filming. I've got

372
00:32:23.200 --> 00:32:28.400
a few videos of Vinnie well needing. All of them

373
00:32:28.440 --> 00:32:33.559
are actually to be fair BlimE me. I need to

374
00:32:33.640 --> 00:32:45.200
have a I need to have a vacuum. Vacuum mm

375
00:32:45.319 --> 00:33:00.559
hmmmm mmmmmmm mmm hmmm. Yeah. Anyway, big brother, I I'm

376
00:33:00.599 --> 00:33:05.000
trying to think. I remember I watched the first watched

377
00:33:05.000 --> 00:33:12.400
it in two thousand. I don't even know if I

378
00:33:12.519 --> 00:33:15.079
watched it in two thousand and two because at two

379
00:33:15.119 --> 00:33:22.119
thousand and one, because I was evicted from where I

380
00:33:22.240 --> 00:33:29.319
was living. So I wonder, let me have a look.

381
00:33:29.559 --> 00:33:41.240
So series one is this the American or the UK one? Climby,

382
00:33:41.359 --> 00:33:47.599
Come on, big brother, I'm trying. I'm a Wikipedia, but

383
00:33:47.680 --> 00:33:50.839
it's just taking ages, big brother. No, it's an American series.

384
00:33:50.880 --> 00:33:56.680
I go back to the UK series. No, Oh, it's

385
00:33:56.680 --> 00:34:02.160
a different page, right, I got it. So that was winners,

386
00:34:02.359 --> 00:34:11.119
Craig Phillips, Brian Dowling, Kate Lawler, Cameron Stout, number four

387
00:34:11.719 --> 00:34:17.320
fourth year, Paul Brennan. Don't remember that, Naddie Almada remember that?

388
00:34:19.159 --> 00:34:23.280
Oh that was the teen Big Brother. I don't remember

389
00:34:23.320 --> 00:34:32.920
there being a teen Big Brother. I don't remember that.

390
00:34:33.679 --> 00:34:37.480
It was pre recorded between the thirtieth of July and

391
00:34:37.559 --> 00:34:43.360
the eighth of all was two thousand and three. Where

392
00:34:43.480 --> 00:34:47.800
was I living then two thousand and three, I would

393
00:34:47.800 --> 00:34:54.320
have been living in a YMCA, And I mean I

394
00:34:54.360 --> 00:34:56.039
probably would have watched it if it was on TV

395
00:34:56.159 --> 00:35:05.719
because back then, itchy, back mind you, I was doing shifts.

396
00:35:08.559 --> 00:35:11.840
So I was doing sometimes I wouldn't finish work till nine,

397
00:35:12.760 --> 00:35:15.159
which means the earliest I'd get home would probably be

398
00:35:15.360 --> 00:35:23.159
half nine, twenty to ten. Yeah, so that wouldn't be

399
00:35:24.719 --> 00:35:32.400
what was it eight or nine? I don't remember eight

400
00:35:32.599 --> 00:35:37.960
or nine, maybe nine. I'm pretty sure at that time

401
00:35:39.519 --> 00:35:42.639
I was working, there was like lots of different shift patterns.

402
00:35:43.239 --> 00:35:48.000
It wasn't just two different shift patterns like sometimes you

403
00:35:48.119 --> 00:35:52.280
get you know, two to six, six or two and

404
00:35:52.400 --> 00:35:55.199
maybe you know, maybe three shift patterns if you do

405
00:35:55.360 --> 00:35:59.039
night shift as well, which is just no good to

406
00:35:59.159 --> 00:36:04.039
be fair for me. I could do night shift, I've

407
00:36:04.079 --> 00:36:06.880
done night shift in the past. I could be up

408
00:36:06.880 --> 00:36:12.440
all night, but only for up all night constantly. I

409
00:36:12.559 --> 00:36:15.079
can't beat up all night one week and then being

410
00:36:15.159 --> 00:36:17.960
a doing a tun in the afternoon till ten at

411
00:36:18.039 --> 00:36:21.960
night the next week. That's that's just that would have

412
00:36:22.079 --> 00:36:33.559
ruined me in my second insurance job. I actually they

413
00:36:33.639 --> 00:36:37.239
had a different shift pattern. They had a oh what

414
00:36:37.480 --> 00:36:46.239
was it, they had a morning if there was an overlap,

415
00:36:47.079 --> 00:36:56.920
was it eight till eight till five, eight till five,

416
00:36:58.159 --> 00:37:01.360
eight till five, I don't know, but there was two

417
00:37:01.440 --> 00:37:05.119
different shift patterns. One of them was two till ten

418
00:37:07.280 --> 00:37:09.400
or was it two till nine or one till nine,

419
00:37:09.480 --> 00:37:15.480
one till nine. But then on a Friday it finish

420
00:37:15.559 --> 00:37:21.199
at two. You go in from no. Yeah, on a

421
00:37:21.360 --> 00:37:28.559
Friday asset. On a Friday, you go in from nine

422
00:37:28.679 --> 00:37:33.360
to one, and then you'd have the rest of the

423
00:37:33.400 --> 00:37:37.800
weekend off all afternoon Friday, Saturday, all day off, Sunday

424
00:37:37.800 --> 00:37:40.599
all day off, and then go back again two o'clock.

425
00:37:41.119 --> 00:37:44.159
So it might have been two till ten or one

426
00:37:44.280 --> 00:37:46.920
till ten, something like that. I think it was like

427
00:37:47.000 --> 00:37:49.920
a longer shift, but then a short day on Friday.

428
00:37:51.119 --> 00:37:53.599
That's the one I changed to. I said to him,

429
00:37:53.599 --> 00:37:55.159
can I just can just put me on the late

430
00:37:55.400 --> 00:37:59.880
the late shift every every week because it suits me,

431
00:38:03.239 --> 00:38:07.679
just a little bit of consistency, you see. And they did,

432
00:38:07.760 --> 00:38:12.119
and then they changed in. That's when I changed department

433
00:38:12.800 --> 00:38:18.920
because I need I needed that regular shift pattern. And

434
00:38:19.039 --> 00:38:23.280
the weird thing about it is, and this isn't necessarily

435
00:38:23.320 --> 00:38:31.840
related to Big Brother. You know amazing how many different okay, relax, relax,

436
00:38:32.480 --> 00:38:38.320
how many different people winners of Big Brother went on

437
00:38:38.800 --> 00:38:42.679
to be TV, to be on TV. So Craig Phillips,

438
00:38:43.079 --> 00:38:48.480
he had a like a self do it you do

439
00:38:48.599 --> 00:38:52.000
it yourself kind of show thing. Brian Dowlan was a

440
00:38:52.039 --> 00:38:55.280
TV host, He was a winner. Kate Lawler has done

441
00:38:55.320 --> 00:39:04.280
lots of TV. And I'm just looking through this just

442
00:39:04.440 --> 00:39:10.320
off the top of my head. I mean, did did did? Did?

443
00:39:12.360 --> 00:39:22.719
Helen Wood? Not just the winners, but also Helen Adam. Know, Okay,

444
00:39:23.719 --> 00:39:26.719
that's not a good example. It's quite a few. Josie Gibson,

445
00:39:26.760 --> 00:39:29.920
that's it. Josie Gibson. She won it in the eleventh

446
00:39:30.039 --> 00:39:36.840
season's eleventh series and she she's still on TV. She's

447
00:39:36.920 --> 00:39:41.800
a big TV host now does like morning TV. So

448
00:39:42.039 --> 00:39:45.599
she's at the moment, she's probably at the top of

449
00:39:45.719 --> 00:39:58.199
the list. Really And then did did Helen Helen Helen

450
00:39:58.440 --> 00:40:05.960
Helen Helen Helen Wood that she was the really scary one?

451
00:40:06.000 --> 00:40:15.400
I think, I think? So, yeah, I I changed the shift.

452
00:40:16.360 --> 00:40:22.519
What I decided was to I needed to. I didn't

453
00:40:22.519 --> 00:40:25.320
want to really want to be in a salesing front anymore.

454
00:40:27.039 --> 00:40:28.960
I needed a change. But I didn't want to leave

455
00:40:29.000 --> 00:40:31.400
the company because I liked working there. It was a

456
00:40:31.519 --> 00:40:35.639
nice place. It was, I mean I was. It wasn't

457
00:40:35.679 --> 00:40:38.239
close to where I lived. It was a fifteen minute walk,

458
00:40:38.480 --> 00:40:46.159
but it was close to town. And yeah, I wanted

459
00:40:46.159 --> 00:40:51.639
to stay there. So what I did, And this was

460
00:40:52.159 --> 00:41:02.440
December two thousand a minute, because I started I started

461
00:41:02.480 --> 00:41:05.639
there in two thousand and four. I think it was

462
00:41:05.760 --> 00:41:11.039
August because before that, because I worked at Churchill and

463
00:41:11.679 --> 00:41:18.920
I left. What's going on here? BlimE me? It keeps skipping,

464
00:41:19.599 --> 00:41:24.760
keeps skipping to like different shows. So I'm trying to

465
00:41:24.840 --> 00:41:32.880
think two thousand can we just get the years? Oh too? Right?

466
00:41:35.599 --> 00:41:42.679
Series two, Series so, Series five? That was two thousand

467
00:41:42.679 --> 00:41:46.360
and four, So yeah, during series five of Big Brother.

468
00:41:46.639 --> 00:41:52.960
That was a year I started working at the in

469
00:41:53.039 --> 00:41:59.880
the call center selling or sales car insurance. But then

470
00:42:00.760 --> 00:42:11.679
at the end of two thousand and five, which that

471
00:42:11.880 --> 00:42:17.320
was Nadia, she won that one Big Brother two thousand

472
00:42:17.320 --> 00:42:21.840
and five December, I applied to change roles to work

473
00:42:21.880 --> 00:42:27.639
in a different department in the insurance company, and I'm

474
00:42:27.679 --> 00:42:30.960
sure Nadia Almada didn't know anything about it. And she

475
00:42:31.159 --> 00:42:37.280
was a trans trans lady, so she was the probably

476
00:42:37.320 --> 00:42:40.480
one of the most one of the first famous trans

477
00:42:40.639 --> 00:42:44.840
females on TV at that time. I would say possibly.

478
00:42:45.679 --> 00:42:53.280
I'm pretty sure she was from Portuguese. Yeah, so she

479
00:42:53.480 --> 00:43:00.239
was Portuguese. And it's weird because she won it. She

480
00:43:00.400 --> 00:43:06.800
came back in the Ultimate Big Brother one, so she

481
00:43:07.079 --> 00:43:12.400
won the third year five. She came back year in

482
00:43:14.559 --> 00:43:18.079
year well between eleven and twelve, so they did the

483
00:43:18.199 --> 00:43:22.239
Ultimate Big Brother and brought back are loads of the

484
00:43:22.280 --> 00:43:28.199
winners from the previous years, and Nadia was pretty much

485
00:43:28.239 --> 00:43:32.320
booed out of the show. It's almost like they didn't

486
00:43:32.400 --> 00:43:37.360
like her anymore. It's weird because she was so popular.

487
00:43:37.840 --> 00:43:40.079
I mean, the fact that she won it obviously shows

488
00:43:40.079 --> 00:43:44.239
that she was popular, but she was so lovely in

489
00:43:44.360 --> 00:43:48.119
the show, but in the Ultimate one she was I

490
00:43:48.280 --> 00:43:51.400
think she had she had the ump I think she had,

491
00:43:52.960 --> 00:44:01.800
she was annoyed. But another one Brian Bellow the he

492
00:44:01.960 --> 00:44:04.880
was really good. I liked him a lot. Brian Bellow

493
00:44:05.000 --> 00:44:17.079
won one Big Brother eight and he have a look.

494
00:44:18.480 --> 00:44:23.800
But it was also in the Ultimate Big Brother, which

495
00:44:24.000 --> 00:44:29.239
was August twenty four, twoenty ten, two days for my birthday,

496
00:44:29.519 --> 00:44:33.840
two days before I was forty Can you even believe that?

497
00:44:35.480 --> 00:44:40.400
How ridiculous is that I'm now seventy three? Can you

498
00:44:40.519 --> 00:44:44.320
believe to ah? And when it went onto the tenth

499
00:44:44.360 --> 00:44:53.239
of September two thy ten and Brian Dowling won that,

500
00:44:53.639 --> 00:44:56.239
so he was one of the winners. Previously he won

501
00:44:56.360 --> 00:45:04.480
that and Nicki Graham came second. Nicky Graham. When did Nikki?

502
00:45:05.639 --> 00:45:08.360
Did Nicky Graham come second? And then the other ones?

503
00:45:09.559 --> 00:45:13.400
Because weird, because Nicki Graham is one of the most famous,

504
00:45:15.480 --> 00:45:23.519
most famous UK Big Brother contestants, she didn't win it.

505
00:45:24.840 --> 00:45:27.480
She didn't come second. According to this, apart from in

506
00:45:27.559 --> 00:45:32.480
the Ultimate One, she was one of the most memorable.

507
00:45:33.599 --> 00:45:36.960
For any Big Brother fan, there's no Big Brother fan

508
00:45:37.039 --> 00:45:42.280
that doesn't know who nick Nicky Graham is really, I

509
00:45:42.360 --> 00:45:50.079
mean there's I mean, mister Stutter, I guess you could

510
00:45:50.079 --> 00:45:54.880
be a Big Brother fan from the last you know,

511
00:45:55.039 --> 00:45:59.679
from twenty twenty three onwards and maybe not no pre

512
00:46:00.079 --> 00:46:07.079
yes winners. I mean, of course that's possible, but you know,

513
00:46:08.760 --> 00:46:13.480
hardcore original fans. But that's not really fair as it

514
00:46:13.599 --> 00:46:16.760
doesn't matter if you've only watched one season or one series.

515
00:46:18.440 --> 00:46:20.000
If you're a fan of Big Brother, you're founding a

516
00:46:20.000 --> 00:46:23.239
Big Brother, you know, because you can't go back in time,

517
00:46:23.320 --> 00:46:28.239
can you. Someone who's only it's at eighteen, they can't

518
00:46:28.320 --> 00:46:32.119
go back twenty four twenty five years to watch the

519
00:46:32.239 --> 00:46:35.199
first season and you know, so it's it's not fair

520
00:46:35.280 --> 00:46:38.519
on them, so it or someone that's ten watching it

521
00:46:38.599 --> 00:46:42.480
for the first time. So yeah, although I'm not sure

522
00:46:42.519 --> 00:46:50.239
it's really suitable viewing for young, young young people because

523
00:46:50.239 --> 00:46:54.039
there's a bit adult. Sometimes I do say some naughty words.

524
00:46:56.199 --> 00:47:05.599
Naughty words not words, so nicky craym okay. So I

525
00:47:05.719 --> 00:47:11.800
did this job. I applied to be working in compliance

526
00:47:12.559 --> 00:47:19.719
and that job entailed listening to phone calls to basically

527
00:47:19.800 --> 00:47:24.159
just judge whether or not the calls were handled correctly

528
00:47:24.599 --> 00:47:29.159
and they asked the correct proper questions. In the right

529
00:47:29.679 --> 00:47:33.519
way and didn't miss out anything and were honest during

530
00:47:33.559 --> 00:47:38.239
the recording and all that stuff. So I applied for

531
00:47:38.320 --> 00:47:49.599
that job. And at this point, the previous sales manager

532
00:47:51.239 --> 00:47:54.960
had moved downstairs and she was now in charge of

533
00:47:55.199 --> 00:47:58.840
the customer service. So we had a different sales manager

534
00:47:59.000 --> 00:48:03.519
upstairs who'd been there still for quite a while. And

535
00:48:04.079 --> 00:48:08.079
so I had the interview with my old sales manager

536
00:48:10.280 --> 00:48:15.119
and she said why why? I said why what she said,

537
00:48:15.119 --> 00:48:19.239
why aren't you wearing browsers now? She said, why? Why

538
00:48:19.320 --> 00:48:23.440
do you want to leave that job and come and

539
00:48:23.559 --> 00:48:29.280
do this? I said, well, firstly, you know, if I'm

540
00:48:29.320 --> 00:48:33.159
going to sell it to you, I'm the most compliant

541
00:48:33.239 --> 00:48:39.599
person on the sales flot, which was true, and I

542
00:48:39.760 --> 00:48:43.239
was getting every time I got one hundred because we'd

543
00:48:43.280 --> 00:48:48.360
have six calls listened to every month and for every

544
00:48:48.519 --> 00:48:52.559
one hundred percent, which means everything was perfect, you know,

545
00:48:52.599 --> 00:48:58.119
as far as there I had tick sheep goes. You know,

546
00:49:00.719 --> 00:49:07.239
the one hundred percent would get twenty five pound for

547
00:49:07.400 --> 00:49:09.599
each call that they got, which was a hunt, which

548
00:49:09.760 --> 00:49:15.599
was you know, one hundred percent, and then whoever gets

549
00:49:15.639 --> 00:49:19.480
whoever got the most hundred percents would then win one

550
00:49:19.559 --> 00:49:24.480
hundred pounds on top, so that added the bonus. So

551
00:49:25.039 --> 00:49:30.000
there was me and one other person who would be

552
00:49:30.480 --> 00:49:35.800
who we would kind of take turns winning it who

553
00:49:35.960 --> 00:49:39.840
kind of one month I'd get the hundred, then the

554
00:49:39.920 --> 00:49:44.639
next month she'd get the hundred. We would all be

555
00:49:44.760 --> 00:49:55.000
getting generally, I'd be getting at least four or five

556
00:49:56.440 --> 00:50:02.599
one hundred percents, so between the two of us, one

557
00:50:02.679 --> 00:50:05.079
of us would perhaps get five and everyone would get six,

558
00:50:07.320 --> 00:50:08.800
you know what I mean. So that that's kind of

559
00:50:08.840 --> 00:50:12.400
how it worked out. And I think we both got

560
00:50:12.800 --> 00:50:14.679
exactly the same amount once and they just gave us

561
00:50:14.679 --> 00:50:19.159
one hundred pounds each plus twenty five twenty what's six

562
00:50:19.320 --> 00:50:27.760
twenty fives twenty five fifty one hundred, one hundred and fifty,

563
00:50:27.800 --> 00:50:32.239
So that's two hundred and fifty pounds bonus. And you know,

564
00:50:32.280 --> 00:50:34.239
I didn't get one hundred pound every month, but I

565
00:50:34.280 --> 00:50:37.480
did get the an extra hundred or one hundred and

566
00:50:37.519 --> 00:50:43.719
twenty five or whatever. So yeah, that's pretty cool. So

567
00:50:44.840 --> 00:50:48.719
the manager, that's why I said, well, I know how

568
00:50:48.800 --> 00:50:54.199
it works. I'm the most compliant person, well apart from

569
00:50:54.239 --> 00:50:56.519
one other person, but you know, pretty much the most

570
00:50:56.559 --> 00:51:01.360
compliant person on the whole sales floor, she said, and

571
00:51:02.239 --> 00:51:06.840
also the managing director was at lunch. This is this

572
00:51:07.000 --> 00:51:09.719
is this is totally true as well. It might sound

573
00:51:09.760 --> 00:51:16.239
like I'm bragging, and I am. But the thing is

574
00:51:16.280 --> 00:51:18.719
that I wonder who's going to be on Big Brother

575
00:51:18.800 --> 00:51:25.920
tonight because it's celebrity Big Brother. It's not just any

576
00:51:26.000 --> 00:51:28.719
old Big Brother. It's celebrity and I don't even know

577
00:51:28.960 --> 00:51:31.360
one person is going to be on there. And I'm

578
00:51:31.440 --> 00:51:36.360
quite happy about that because I'm looking forward to being surprised,

579
00:51:36.840 --> 00:51:40.119
you know, I'm going to have it on and I'm

580
00:51:40.159 --> 00:51:45.639
going to be watching, like just with Glee. Someone said

581
00:51:45.639 --> 00:51:48.840
to me, Someone asked me on Friday, what gives me joy?

582
00:51:49.039 --> 00:51:52.920
Big Brother launch night? A Big Brother gives me joy.

583
00:51:54.199 --> 00:51:57.599
I don't know why. I just love it. I love

584
00:51:57.679 --> 00:52:01.960
Big Brother. I used to feel the same way about

585
00:52:02.400 --> 00:52:06.840
The X Factor, you know, back in the early days.

586
00:52:07.320 --> 00:52:09.159
I kind of pitted off a little bit with The

587
00:52:09.320 --> 00:52:13.880
X Factor over the years, but for many years, well

588
00:52:13.920 --> 00:52:18.280
over a decade, I loved it, you know, every Saturday night.

589
00:52:19.920 --> 00:52:21.559
I think I liked the fact it was just on

590
00:52:21.719 --> 00:52:27.800
once a week and just that was my Saturday night

591
00:52:27.880 --> 00:52:32.360
watching X Factor. Love love, love loved it. It was

592
00:52:32.360 --> 00:52:34.599
the same kind of excitement as I would get for

593
00:52:35.920 --> 00:52:42.960
a big upcoming boxing event. Is Yeah, it's a feel

594
00:52:43.039 --> 00:52:49.760
good thing. And that's what Big Brother gives me. Because

595
00:52:50.480 --> 00:52:52.719
you know, I make recordings and I do all this stuff.

596
00:52:54.320 --> 00:52:57.119
I don't look forward to the evening. There's nothing I'm

597
00:52:57.159 --> 00:53:00.559
looking forward to to watch on TV because so much

598
00:53:00.760 --> 00:53:05.239
stuff is available to stream now. There's no sort of deadlines.

599
00:53:05.280 --> 00:53:10.440
There's no times for it apart from you know, at

600
00:53:10.480 --> 00:53:14.079
the weekend when there's boxing on, if there's boxing on,

601
00:53:15.320 --> 00:53:21.239
because then it's on a certain time, and it's it's

602
00:53:21.280 --> 00:53:23.920
a little bit constricted in a way, you know, compared

603
00:53:23.960 --> 00:53:26.880
to it's like I have to be sitting watching it

604
00:53:27.039 --> 00:53:29.280
right now, and that's when Vinie normally wants to go

605
00:53:29.360 --> 00:53:37.599
and do a pooh. So I'm in this, I mean

606
00:53:38.119 --> 00:53:41.840
in any interview and says she says, okay, so we

607
00:53:42.000 --> 00:53:45.519
agree with you. You're good at the compliance. This job

608
00:53:45.559 --> 00:53:48.559
will be easy for you. I said, thank you. I agree.

609
00:53:49.880 --> 00:53:52.159
I want God to take it because it's easy for me.

610
00:53:52.840 --> 00:53:54.840
But she said, why do you want it? I said,

611
00:53:54.840 --> 00:54:01.239
because of the hours. Firstly, I've had enough for sales, sales,

612
00:54:01.760 --> 00:54:03.639
because I'd already Yeah, I just didn't want to do

613
00:54:03.679 --> 00:54:06.679
sales anymore. I didn't want to do sales to start

614
00:54:06.760 --> 00:54:09.679
with in that company, but I was kind of I

615
00:54:09.800 --> 00:54:12.840
had to get a job, so just went back into sales.

616
00:54:14.039 --> 00:54:18.239
But I was happy to get out of, you know,

617
00:54:18.320 --> 00:54:21.480
the sales department, even though, as I was saying, the

618
00:54:21.559 --> 00:54:25.760
managing director went to lunch with the sales manager and everything,

619
00:54:26.519 --> 00:54:30.159
and when a sale manager came back, he said that

620
00:54:30.320 --> 00:54:34.559
the director of the company, and this is true. I'm

621
00:54:34.599 --> 00:54:37.679
not even making this up. Okay, he might be making out,

622
00:54:37.719 --> 00:54:43.239
but I'm not making up. He said that the managing

623
00:54:43.320 --> 00:54:47.280
director said that he wished that everybody on the sales

624
00:54:47.320 --> 00:54:53.000
floor was like me, because then it would be so

625
00:54:53.199 --> 00:54:57.840
much better. And then he stopped and said, yeah, apart

626
00:54:57.840 --> 00:55:01.320
from the smell obviously, but you know, if everyone washed,

627
00:55:01.480 --> 00:55:03.760
then that would be And I thought, that's so rude.

628
00:55:04.800 --> 00:55:10.280
It made us laugh. But it's like, really so and

629
00:55:10.360 --> 00:55:14.440
everyone has to wear trousers. So I said, anyway, he said,

630
00:55:16.599 --> 00:55:19.519
I said, what do you mean. He said, well, you

631
00:55:19.679 --> 00:55:24.159
do everything correctly. You don't sell the most, but you

632
00:55:24.280 --> 00:55:29.000
do so well. But you do everything correctly. Because a

633
00:55:29.039 --> 00:55:31.199
lot of people that were selling morse, they were getting

634
00:55:31.239 --> 00:55:35.000
more sales, but they were sometimes they were giving insurance.

635
00:55:35.679 --> 00:55:38.719
They were selling someone car insurance for a van for

636
00:55:38.840 --> 00:55:44.480
commercial vehicle, which meant the insurance wasn't even valid, and

637
00:55:44.599 --> 00:55:47.199
it was valid because it was the error of the company,

638
00:55:47.719 --> 00:55:50.960
but you know it wasn't. They had to cancel the

639
00:55:51.039 --> 00:55:54.320
insurance and then the salesperson would get that money taken

640
00:55:54.360 --> 00:55:57.280
off their wages. So sometimes they'd lose like hundreds of

641
00:55:57.280 --> 00:56:01.239
pounds off their month's money because of making a mistake.

642
00:56:03.320 --> 00:56:07.519
It happened once to me. I think I didn't like that.

643
00:56:08.000 --> 00:56:12.000
It did happen once I made a mistake, which is human.

644
00:56:12.119 --> 00:56:16.199
It's I mean, I class myself technically I'm living in

645
00:56:16.599 --> 00:56:19.800
a world full of humans, so I'm kind of I

646
00:56:19.920 --> 00:56:24.760
live I live among you live among them. And oh

647
00:56:24.880 --> 00:56:29.679
that was that was a bit of pill. Wow. Really,

648
00:56:30.559 --> 00:56:35.400
I wonder if any of the I do wonder though

649
00:56:35.440 --> 00:56:40.320
about The Big Brother tonight, because I was there, was

650
00:56:40.480 --> 00:56:42.440
there was you know, there's always like a little bit

651
00:56:42.519 --> 00:56:51.480
of you know, kind of a little bit of teasing,

652
00:56:51.960 --> 00:56:55.480
a little bit of tickling, a little bit of you know,

653
00:56:57.880 --> 00:57:01.800
like it might be this person, it might be that person.

654
00:57:03.760 --> 00:57:06.800
And I think the only other series that they have

655
00:57:07.000 --> 00:57:11.599
that with is probably I'm a celebrity. Get me out

656
00:57:11.599 --> 00:57:14.679
of here, Jungle, Get Me out of the Jungle program,

657
00:57:16.599 --> 00:57:19.400
And they quite often don't tell you exactly who's going

658
00:57:19.480 --> 00:57:23.639
to be in there until the last minute. And I

659
00:57:23.719 --> 00:57:28.119
don't watch that program because I don't. I mean, it's

660
00:57:28.400 --> 00:57:32.400
it's the arguments and stuff and the conversations and get

661
00:57:32.440 --> 00:57:35.159
to know celebrities. That's good. But I don't like the

662
00:57:35.280 --> 00:57:40.840
Tucker Trials. I just just I don't like it, don't

663
00:57:42.079 --> 00:57:45.599
It's just yeah, I just don't like it. Everything else

664
00:57:45.599 --> 00:57:48.039
about it is good, but I think the reason why

665
00:57:48.199 --> 00:57:50.679
most people maybe watch it is the reason that I

666
00:57:50.760 --> 00:57:54.320
don't want to watch it. But then how am I

667
00:57:54.360 --> 00:57:56.519
supposed to I don't know how why people watch it?

668
00:57:56.679 --> 00:58:03.920
But anyway, and my managers, why did you why do you? Well,

669
00:58:04.079 --> 00:58:07.199
this is the sales the previous sales manager now is

670
00:58:07.320 --> 00:58:13.440
the customer service manager. Why do you want to leave

671
00:58:13.519 --> 00:58:18.519
your sales position and come and work in customer service

672
00:58:18.719 --> 00:58:23.679
as a compliance officer? Just listening to calls on the

673
00:58:23.760 --> 00:58:27.920
phone all day? And I said, well, I'll be listening,

674
00:58:27.960 --> 00:58:34.039
you know. It's the hours. It's eight till five? Was

675
00:58:34.079 --> 00:58:35.639
it nine till five? I think I might have been

676
00:58:35.719 --> 00:58:41.920
eight till five and Monday Friday, had the weekends off,

677
00:58:42.480 --> 00:58:48.519
had my evenings off. That's what I wanted because I

678
00:58:48.679 --> 00:58:52.360
was living in the Buddhist community at the time, and I,

679
00:58:54.400 --> 00:58:56.280
I don't know, I just I just didn't want to

680
00:58:56.320 --> 00:58:58.440
do the sales anymore. I really wanted to get out

681
00:58:58.440 --> 00:59:02.880
of sales and they and she did say to me.

682
00:59:03.000 --> 00:59:05.800
And there was also my future boss was there as well.

683
00:59:06.599 --> 00:59:09.199
I didn't really know him. I did kind of know

684
00:59:09.360 --> 00:59:11.840
him to talk to, to chat to because he's the

685
00:59:11.880 --> 00:59:15.920
one who told me there was a job because so

686
00:59:16.000 --> 00:59:18.119
he used to come in. He was the IT man

687
00:59:18.760 --> 00:59:22.159
or the IT person, so he did that as well

688
00:59:22.199 --> 00:59:26.239
as run the compliance department. Because the compliance department only

689
00:59:26.360 --> 00:59:30.679
had two people in it, me and Pammy, and then

690
00:59:30.719 --> 00:59:37.760
there was him who was like managed it and he'd

691
00:59:37.880 --> 00:59:40.960
do the overflow. He'd basically listen to some of the

692
00:59:41.079 --> 00:59:43.320
calls that we did to make sure that we were

693
00:59:43.400 --> 00:59:47.840
doing a job properly. Plus he was doing other stuff

694
00:59:47.840 --> 00:59:50.320
as well. It was kind of like the assistant to

695
00:59:50.400 --> 00:59:55.679
the boss. So he tild and I supposed to see

696
00:59:55.719 --> 00:59:57.000
him every now and then. He'd come up with a

697
00:59:57.039 --> 00:59:59.480
computer went down or the system went down, he'd be

698
00:59:59.519 --> 01:00:02.159
in the sale office like doing stuff. So I got

699
01:00:02.199 --> 01:00:03.840
to know him a little bit, chatting to him as

700
01:00:04.000 --> 01:00:06.960
very friendly bloke, and he told me there was a

701
01:00:07.039 --> 01:00:12.760
job downstairs in the compliance So I said, can I apply?

702
01:00:14.840 --> 01:00:18.480
And he said, well you have to. You have to

703
01:00:18.559 --> 01:00:20.719
go down and have to speak to what's her name?

704
01:00:22.239 --> 01:00:25.239
I said, who's what's her name? He said, he did

705
01:00:25.320 --> 01:00:27.039
say a name, but I can't remember what her name is.

706
01:00:27.119 --> 01:00:29.679
He didn't say what's her name. He was a bit

707
01:00:29.719 --> 01:00:32.679
more respectful than me. He actually used people's proper names.

708
01:00:35.320 --> 01:00:36.800
So that's what I did. So he was in the

709
01:00:36.840 --> 01:00:42.360
interview as well, and she because he was going to

710
01:00:42.400 --> 01:00:46.079
be my manager, so the customer service manager. She said

711
01:00:46.079 --> 01:00:50.000
to me, okay, so you want the job, but you

712
01:00:50.119 --> 01:00:52.960
realize you're going to be losing ten thousand pounds a

713
01:00:53.079 --> 01:00:59.039
year to do this. I hadn't really worked it out

714
01:00:59.480 --> 01:01:01.360
that it was to be that much, but it was

715
01:01:02.039 --> 01:01:06.000
because I was earning twenty five with the sales bonus

716
01:01:06.039 --> 01:01:10.800
and all that stuff, and the basic on this was

717
01:01:10.880 --> 01:01:15.719
going to be fourteen. So I said, yeah, it's fine.

718
01:01:16.440 --> 01:01:20.000
She said, are you sure you're really willing to lose

719
01:01:20.280 --> 01:01:26.639
two hundred pounds a week? And I was like, okay, yeah,

720
01:01:26.800 --> 01:01:30.559
it's not about the money anymore. It's about I just

721
01:01:30.639 --> 01:01:36.840
want to have a more relaxed time, you know, I

722
01:01:36.920 --> 01:01:38.760
want to get out of sales. Sales was just not

723
01:01:39.480 --> 01:01:43.960
not for me anymore. And she said, I'll be honest

724
01:01:43.960 --> 01:01:47.719
with yet, if it wasn't for the fact that you,

725
01:01:50.440 --> 01:01:54.039
you know, we're good at what you do upstairs, we'd

726
01:01:54.079 --> 01:01:56.960
probably would just like give you the job now, right now.

727
01:01:58.320 --> 01:02:01.800
But we're going to have to talk to your manager upstairs.

728
01:02:03.840 --> 01:02:10.079
And I said, well, I said, that's not really going

729
01:02:10.119 --> 01:02:12.559
to make that much difference. She said, why not this

730
01:02:12.719 --> 01:02:15.119
bit I'm making up? Probably I don't know, but I'm

731
01:02:15.119 --> 01:02:17.159
pretty sure. I said, so, well, if you don't give

732
01:02:17.199 --> 01:02:22.119
me a job, I can't stay in sales. I don't

733
01:02:22.119 --> 01:02:23.800
want to work in sales anymore. I don't want to

734
01:02:23.840 --> 01:02:30.199
be doing shifts. That's why I want to come and

735
01:02:30.280 --> 01:02:36.960
do this job downstairs in the customer service, because I've

736
01:02:37.000 --> 01:02:42.519
had enough for sales. And she said, well, let's we'll

737
01:02:42.599 --> 01:02:53.239
let you know, and then I, yeah, that was it,

738
01:02:53.400 --> 01:02:59.079
and I've got the job. So I started in December

739
01:03:00.719 --> 01:03:10.440
two thousand and five. Yeah, two thousand and five, so

740
01:03:10.559 --> 01:03:16.480
i'd been there for a year and a year and

741
01:03:16.639 --> 01:03:23.199
four months. I remember I just sat in a desk

742
01:03:23.400 --> 01:03:26.119
at the back of the room, a big old room,

743
01:03:27.000 --> 01:03:29.800
and there was nothing for me to do. There was

744
01:03:29.880 --> 01:03:34.920
just a computer. And why is there nothing for me

745
01:03:35.000 --> 01:03:38.719
to do? They do the compliance, they do them. They've

746
01:03:38.800 --> 01:03:41.440
been doing it since I've been upstairs, and so why

747
01:03:41.559 --> 01:03:44.440
is there nothing to do? But they didn't. They were

748
01:03:44.480 --> 01:03:48.519
basically wanting to set up an area that could hold

749
01:03:48.599 --> 01:03:53.159
all three of us, because up to that point Pam

750
01:03:53.679 --> 01:03:55.880
was doing all of them. Pam and the other bloke

751
01:03:56.199 --> 01:04:02.400
were pretty much doing all of them. I was like, okay,

752
01:04:04.920 --> 01:04:06.880
so I don't know who else. I think there used

753
01:04:06.880 --> 01:04:09.639
to be someone else. I think what it was is

754
01:04:10.280 --> 01:04:14.199
the two of them could do it easy to get

755
01:04:14.280 --> 01:04:20.920
between them. But the man he started because he was

756
01:04:20.960 --> 01:04:24.280
getting more and more duties elsewhere doing other things with it.

757
01:04:25.599 --> 01:04:28.639
So it got to the point where sometimes they weren't

758
01:04:28.679 --> 01:04:33.320
even doing six They weren't listening to six recordings a month,

759
01:04:34.400 --> 01:04:36.519
which was annoying because that meant I didn't get paid

760
01:04:36.519 --> 01:04:44.960
as much, you know, with the bonuses and that. Who

761
01:04:45.000 --> 01:04:48.639
would have thought that ninety eight out of one hundred

762
01:04:48.639 --> 01:04:52.519
would be a disappointed Mark it's crazy in it, but

763
01:04:52.639 --> 01:04:55.519
that's a difference. That's twenty five pounds that wasn't going

764
01:04:55.559 --> 01:05:02.079
in my pocket. The sales is quite good though, because

765
01:05:02.679 --> 01:05:07.280
the good thing the payments structure, because they paid the

766
01:05:07.440 --> 01:05:17.360
monthly money, which was I think it was thirteen thousand

767
01:05:17.440 --> 01:05:26.480
a year basic, and then the bonus was paid weekly,

768
01:05:30.239 --> 01:05:34.920
so it's a monthly you know, monthly structure paid. I

769
01:05:35.079 --> 01:05:37.519
just banged a desk. That metal thing has to go.

770
01:05:37.639 --> 01:05:42.199
I kick banging it. The Yeah, they'd paid monthly, so

771
01:05:42.519 --> 01:05:44.280
you know, at the end of every month would get paid.

772
01:05:46.239 --> 01:05:48.719
I don't know what's that one thousand pounds or something.

773
01:05:50.840 --> 01:05:55.880
Was it one thy twelve? Yeah, maybe that maybe nine hundred,

774
01:05:57.280 --> 01:05:59.840
nine hundred and twenty or I don't know, whatever it was.

775
01:06:00.599 --> 01:06:04.119
And then we get a bonus of whatever we earned

776
01:06:04.159 --> 01:06:08.400
the previous week. So some people in there they'll be

777
01:06:08.440 --> 01:06:11.920
getting like five six hundred pound because I was in

778
01:06:12.039 --> 01:06:14.840
no way was I couldn't even near being the top seller,

779
01:06:15.840 --> 01:06:18.280
but I did. I made my money up with the

780
01:06:18.360 --> 01:06:24.639
compliance by doing the job properly. So yeah, I think

781
01:06:24.679 --> 01:06:32.400
the most diver earn in one week was about I

782
01:06:32.519 --> 01:06:35.280
think the compliance and the compliance was paid as part

783
01:06:35.320 --> 01:06:38.920
of the monthly that wasn't paid in the weekly. Yeah,

784
01:06:39.000 --> 01:06:43.599
that's it. So I got that paid extra and the yeah,

785
01:06:43.639 --> 01:06:48.239
because it was on the pay slip. So the so

786
01:06:48.480 --> 01:06:51.639
if sometimes I get an extra two point fifty, sometimes

787
01:06:51.719 --> 01:06:56.760
it'd be like one twenty five depended. But with the

788
01:06:56.800 --> 01:06:59.679
actual sales, I think one my best week was about

789
01:06:59.800 --> 01:07:03.519
four fo one hundred and fifty I think, but that

790
01:07:03.760 --> 01:07:07.679
was probably a one off, maybe three fifty four point fifty.

791
01:07:08.840 --> 01:07:11.320
But I didn't I was. I was nowhere in the

792
01:07:11.480 --> 01:07:16.760
top salespeople in that company. But the difference is everyone

793
01:07:16.840 --> 01:07:22.119
there was good. Anyone that was not able to hit

794
01:07:22.199 --> 01:07:28.400
the targets basically got to let go. But with church

795
01:07:28.599 --> 01:07:37.079
ll you you basically you had to turn up in

796
01:07:37.199 --> 01:07:41.960
the office with the intention of farting in order to

797
01:07:42.199 --> 01:07:44.280
get a discipline. Why you know, you just like almost

798
01:07:45.199 --> 01:07:47.360
you had to wait for the managing director to turn

799
01:07:47.480 --> 01:07:51.000
up and just fart in front of him. I'm saying,

800
01:07:51.039 --> 01:07:54.320
you don't do that. I'm saying, you know, anyone ever

801
01:07:54.400 --> 01:07:56.079
did that, I don't even mind talking about it. But

802
01:07:58.400 --> 01:08:03.840
they were a bit more nicer, I think in the

803
01:08:03.960 --> 01:08:10.400
sense towards the staff, because they needed the calls answered.

804
01:08:10.599 --> 01:08:13.840
It wasn't just about sales because they were getting paid,

805
01:08:13.840 --> 01:08:17.680
they were getting penalized if they didn't answer us the calls.

806
01:08:17.720 --> 01:08:20.720
It came through that answer us certain percentage of the

807
01:08:20.840 --> 01:08:24.079
calls because they were coming through from the bank, Lloyd's

808
01:08:24.119 --> 01:08:30.600
TSP bank calls. And that's my understanding of it. So

809
01:08:30.960 --> 01:08:34.880
even people that didn't sell much, at least they were

810
01:08:34.920 --> 01:08:38.079
answering the phone, which meant they were saving the company money,

811
01:08:39.039 --> 01:08:41.720
probably paying their wages just by answering the phone. Really,

812
01:08:45.680 --> 01:08:51.279
so Big Brother starts at nine o'clock on channel It

813
01:08:51.439 --> 01:08:54.760
moved from channel four to Channel five and now it's

814
01:08:54.840 --> 01:08:59.680
on ITV two, but the launch night is on ITV.

815
01:09:02.640 --> 01:09:08.199
So yeah, there's been quite a few hosts. Oh. Jade

816
01:09:08.279 --> 01:09:12.479
Goody's probably one of the most famous, one of the

817
01:09:12.560 --> 01:09:19.279
most famous contestants as well, but she didn't win it.

818
01:09:19.359 --> 01:09:23.119
I don't know where she came, probably third, but she

819
01:09:23.319 --> 01:09:24.960
was one of the top ones. And then she was

820
01:09:25.079 --> 01:09:32.479
in the Ultimate one as well, and that all kind

821
01:09:32.560 --> 01:09:38.720
of went a bit pear shaped that that one. There

822
01:09:38.800 --> 01:09:44.680
was a lot of Yeah, let me go on, I'm

823
01:09:44.680 --> 01:09:48.279
going to click on this because just to recount my

824
01:09:48.720 --> 01:10:00.800
memory of it, did the Ultimate format Brian what okay?

825
01:10:04.039 --> 01:10:09.720
Brian nick Okay, so let's have a look. So the

826
01:10:10.079 --> 01:10:22.960
entrance in the Ultimate Big Brother was Brian Dowling. He

827
01:10:23.119 --> 01:10:26.520
was a winner of Big Brother two. He won it.

828
01:10:28.800 --> 01:10:35.119
What Yeah, he was the overall winner. So you had

829
01:10:35.720 --> 01:10:40.600
Brian Dowln Nicky Graham, she was fifth place in Big

830
01:10:40.680 --> 01:10:44.520
Brother seven. She came runner up in the Ultimate, and

831
01:10:44.640 --> 01:10:48.920
then you had the ones that were previous winners of

832
01:10:48.960 --> 01:10:57.359
Big Brother, Chantal Houghton and Eureka Johnson. But she was

833
01:10:57.399 --> 01:11:06.720
a winner of Celebrity Big Brother. Oh, shan Shantell Houghton.

834
01:11:07.720 --> 01:11:14.359
This is this is funny. I remember that. Wow, Chantell Houghton.

835
01:11:15.880 --> 01:11:21.640
She basically came into Celebrity Big Brother but with a secret,

836
01:11:22.960 --> 01:11:27.640
and her secret is was she's not a celebrity. So

837
01:11:27.760 --> 01:11:31.800
they put her in as being like a in a

838
01:11:31.920 --> 01:11:35.039
boat in a band, like a girl band, but she

839
01:11:35.319 --> 01:11:39.079
wasn't a celebrity and no one who she was. But

840
01:11:39.159 --> 01:11:45.359
at the same time, not everybody on Celebrity Big Brother

841
01:11:45.520 --> 01:11:50.800
has always been like a big world famous name. I

842
01:11:50.920 --> 01:11:55.560
mean some really have, but not everyone has. I mean

843
01:11:57.520 --> 01:12:00.199
some of the Celebrity Big brothers would be so good,

844
01:12:02.039 --> 01:12:05.319
like Coolio when he was on there, and Minnie me

845
01:12:05.560 --> 01:12:09.279
was on there as well, and oh so many it's

846
01:12:09.359 --> 01:12:14.239
been great, so these are previous winners. But then she

847
01:12:14.640 --> 01:12:16.920
went on to win it even though she wasn't a

848
01:12:16.960 --> 01:12:22.159
celebrity to start with. And then she came third place

849
01:12:22.560 --> 01:12:32.760
in the Ultra one, which is cook cool. So Victor

850
01:12:32.880 --> 01:12:37.359
a brewer, he was evicted because he got into I

851
01:12:37.439 --> 01:12:40.920
think he's the one that got into an argument on

852
01:12:41.119 --> 01:12:45.640
Big Brother five, but he came fourth place this time.

853
01:12:48.159 --> 01:12:55.640
And Nick Bateman, Nick, see anyone that never watched any

854
01:12:55.640 --> 01:12:59.079
of the earlier Big Brothers. This was the very first

855
01:12:59.199 --> 01:13:07.359
series and the rules of Big Brother, I mean, this is,

856
01:13:07.720 --> 01:13:10.760
this is It's really hard to believe that this was

857
01:13:10.880 --> 01:13:15.239
even a thing. But this was headline news. And I

858
01:13:15.479 --> 01:13:18.800
think I'm partly making this up, but I do believe

859
01:13:18.920 --> 01:13:22.359
it was even mentioned in the Houses of Parliament by

860
01:13:22.439 --> 01:13:30.560
the Prime Minister. Seriously, what Nick Bateman did blindly? Oh

861
01:13:30.680 --> 01:13:38.760
this job? I did. I like working there, actually I did.

862
01:13:38.880 --> 01:13:46.039
But the thing is it was a It was weird

863
01:13:46.399 --> 01:13:49.760
because I went from being one of the well the gang,

864
01:13:49.840 --> 01:13:52.840
but I was working in the sales law to knowing

865
01:13:54.079 --> 01:13:56.760
you get to know everyone, even maybe not personally, but

866
01:13:56.960 --> 01:14:00.159
know everyone's name, and you know it wasn't a big

867
01:14:00.359 --> 01:14:08.439
sales floor. There was probably I don't know one, two, three, four, five, ten, fifteen,

868
01:14:08.520 --> 01:14:14.039
twenty four, probably fifty maybe sixty people when I worked there.

869
01:14:14.680 --> 01:14:18.000
They did increase it by about three times that so

870
01:14:18.239 --> 01:14:21.359
they put in, yeah, they've got to start getting team

871
01:14:21.479 --> 01:14:25.439
leaders and stuff and increasing. But there's probably maybe fifty

872
01:14:25.560 --> 01:14:29.840
or sixty people working there, and I pretty much knew

873
01:14:29.880 --> 01:14:33.119
everyone to speak to and say hello to and that,

874
01:14:35.079 --> 01:14:39.840
so I go from being their colleague to marking their calls,

875
01:14:41.479 --> 01:14:44.960
and that didn't go down so well all the time,

876
01:14:46.520 --> 01:14:49.399
and I just had to explain to them that if

877
01:14:49.479 --> 01:14:54.760
you the thing is, if they would give they give

878
01:14:54.840 --> 01:14:57.279
you bonuses. If you've got one hundred percent, you'd get

879
01:14:58.239 --> 01:15:06.199
twenty five pounds. But if you got below forty percent,

880
01:15:06.640 --> 01:15:11.640
forty percent was the past mark, I think, And that's

881
01:15:11.760 --> 01:15:15.479
not a particularly high level, is it. I think forty

882
01:15:15.640 --> 01:15:18.640
maybe it was forty five percent was the past mark.

883
01:15:19.840 --> 01:15:28.600
Anyone got below that, they would lose money. And one

884
01:15:28.680 --> 01:15:32.600
person lost. They got below forty percent or whatever on

885
01:15:32.880 --> 01:15:39.760
all six calls, so they lost. I think it might

886
01:15:39.800 --> 01:15:43.039
have been you lose twenty five pound, so he lost

887
01:15:44.800 --> 01:15:50.039
one hundred and fifty pounds from his money and he

888
01:15:50.239 --> 01:15:56.279
was not happy. So he had the team leaders running

889
01:15:56.359 --> 01:16:02.399
around listening to the calls to check saying, well, no,

890
01:16:02.640 --> 01:16:06.439
he you know, and I don't know if I think

891
01:16:06.520 --> 01:16:09.239
it might be in a different department, not sales, maybe

892
01:16:09.720 --> 01:16:19.439
in yeah, I think it was renewals, and every single

893
01:16:19.520 --> 01:16:23.399
one that he'd failed on, he failed on, like they

894
01:16:23.479 --> 01:16:27.319
got someone to re listen to it. I got Pam

895
01:16:27.439 --> 01:16:33.079
to listen to or my manager and they seem to

896
01:16:33.119 --> 01:16:35.199
be under the impression that I was going to give

897
01:16:35.239 --> 01:16:39.600
them a bad mark for why I wouldn't do that,

898
01:16:39.760 --> 01:16:45.199
you know, probably the most awkward one. The awkward situation

899
01:16:45.600 --> 01:16:51.920
was well, not as awkward as Nick Bateman and Big Brother.

900
01:16:54.039 --> 01:17:00.439
You know. It was actually headline news, right Why just

901
01:17:00.520 --> 01:17:06.239
because he wrote down messages with a pen or pencil

902
01:17:06.319 --> 01:17:09.920
that he smuggled into Big Brother write down messages trying

903
01:17:10.000 --> 01:17:25.199
to manipulate the nomination process. Okay, this is ridiculous now,

904
01:17:25.279 --> 01:17:28.399
but he was the bear in mind, this is two thousand,

905
01:17:28.840 --> 01:17:31.600
twenty five years ago, blind me. He was a most

906
01:17:31.680 --> 01:17:37.760
hated man in Britain. He did nothing other than just

907
01:17:37.880 --> 01:17:41.640
write down a few messages. He didn't hurt anyone, you know,

908
01:17:42.199 --> 01:17:44.520
but he was absolutely. I think he had to go

909
01:17:44.640 --> 01:17:51.000
into hiding. That's how ridiculous it was. It was so

910
01:17:51.880 --> 01:17:55.199
big it was. He honestly, there's no way I can

911
01:17:55.279 --> 01:17:58.920
really explain to you how huge it was. Big Brother

912
01:17:59.199 --> 01:18:07.399
was so watched at that point, and so he went

913
01:18:07.479 --> 01:18:12.119
into the Ultra one and he came fifth, so he was,

914
01:18:13.079 --> 01:18:20.680
he was, but he was ejected from Big Yeah. Oh no,

915
01:18:20.960 --> 01:18:24.680
Victor Ebua wasn't a victor. He was evicted, not objected, sorry,

916
01:18:24.720 --> 01:18:31.600
but Nick Bateman was ejected and because for cheating. But

917
01:18:31.600 --> 01:18:39.119
it's so ridiculous. Preston Big Brother four, he got together

918
01:18:39.239 --> 01:18:43.079
with Chantel Hutton and I think they got married. So

919
01:18:43.199 --> 01:18:47.119
they fell in love and he came fourth. Then he

920
01:18:47.239 --> 01:18:53.880
came sixth place in I think they perhaps weren't together

921
01:18:54.000 --> 01:18:57.640
anymore when they went back into the house, so it's

922
01:18:57.720 --> 01:19:04.600
quite awkward. Rika Johnson was the winner of the Celebrity

923
01:19:04.640 --> 01:19:10.640
Big Brother six and she came seventh place in oh Man,

924
01:19:10.720 --> 01:19:15.520
there was a really really funny bit with Arika Johnson

925
01:19:15.600 --> 01:19:18.520
and Minie Me and they were singing. This is in

926
01:19:18.680 --> 01:19:23.000
the Big Brother Celebrity Big Brother number six. They sang

927
01:19:23.079 --> 01:19:27.800
a song together. It was so good, so funny, Vanessa

928
01:19:27.960 --> 01:19:32.680
felt she was in Celebrity Big Brother one. She got

929
01:19:32.720 --> 01:19:36.880
evicted from there and she gott she was numbers. She

930
01:19:37.079 --> 01:19:47.039
came eighth. She was evicted. Michelle bass Big Brother five. Yeah,

931
01:19:47.119 --> 01:19:49.439
she was a character because she got evicted from Big

932
01:19:49.479 --> 01:19:52.479
Brother five. But then she got a Big Brother. Yeah,

933
01:19:52.520 --> 01:19:54.119
so she was a character. So they put her in

934
01:19:54.199 --> 01:19:58.279
next to that, and Vanessa felt the character as well.

935
01:19:59.199 --> 01:20:06.439
Nadia alm Marda Big Brother five again. She won Big

936
01:20:06.520 --> 01:20:10.880
Brother five really popular, I said earlier, and she was evicted.

937
01:20:10.960 --> 01:20:14.159
She's one of one, two three four. Well, she was

938
01:20:14.279 --> 01:20:21.399
one two three, the third person to get evicted. And

939
01:20:21.439 --> 01:20:31.359
then you've got Macosa Mussin Bassi, Makosa Mussan Bassie. Who's

940
01:20:31.520 --> 01:20:36.960
Makosa Mussin Bassie's she was in Big Brother six. I

941
01:20:37.039 --> 01:20:42.079
think I know Makosa. She was third place in Big

942
01:20:42.119 --> 01:20:45.399
Brother six, but she got evicted. She was second to

943
01:20:45.479 --> 01:20:52.760
be evicted. Coolio third place in Celebrity Big Brother six.

944
01:20:53.680 --> 01:20:58.359
He was so nearly said cool He was great and

945
01:20:58.479 --> 01:21:02.319
Celebrity Big Brother because he was also in the same

946
01:21:02.960 --> 01:21:09.760
the same one with Areka Johnson and Minnie Me and

947
01:21:09.880 --> 01:21:12.600
they were like a double act them two so good.

948
01:21:14.000 --> 01:21:18.159
But for some reason he got ejected from the Ultra

949
01:21:18.479 --> 01:21:25.199
Big Brother and I don't remember quite why. Don't remember.

950
01:21:25.439 --> 01:21:29.319
How's weird, isn't it. It's got to be a well,

951
01:21:29.399 --> 01:21:31.800
of course there was a reason. He must have done

952
01:21:31.880 --> 01:21:36.760
something or said something that people were upset with. And

953
01:21:37.079 --> 01:21:42.119
so let be Big Brother three. John mccruck he was

954
01:21:43.520 --> 01:21:49.479
a Yeah, he was evicted in the first one Big

955
01:21:49.520 --> 01:21:52.119
Brother three, and he was evicted. He was the first

956
01:21:52.159 --> 01:21:56.560
one to be evicted from the Ultra and then Josie

957
01:21:56.600 --> 01:22:01.760
Gibson she won Big Brother eleven, but she walked out

958
01:22:01.840 --> 01:22:06.279
of the Ultra Big Brother. I need to know why.

959
01:22:06.960 --> 01:22:11.800
I need to know why. That's really gonna bug me

960
01:22:12.000 --> 01:22:19.680
if I don't find out why. In the end, I

961
01:22:19.800 --> 01:22:23.920
only worked. I worked in a compliance for longer than

962
01:22:23.920 --> 01:22:26.479
I found. I worked in a sales department in that company.

963
01:22:27.840 --> 01:22:33.000
So I did December two thousand and five, two thousand

964
01:22:33.000 --> 01:22:38.199
and five, Yeah, two thousand and five until June two

965
01:22:38.319 --> 01:22:44.680
thousand and seven. So what's that as one year eight months?

966
01:22:47.359 --> 01:22:55.319
And basically they I've gone part time due to health issues,

967
01:22:57.279 --> 01:23:01.479
and which was fine. I mean, it's like that suited

968
01:23:01.560 --> 01:23:06.000
me really well, so I'd go in at I'd know

969
01:23:06.199 --> 01:23:11.439
nine till two something like that and like five hours,

970
01:23:11.479 --> 01:23:14.520
and it was perfect. Five days a week, five hours

971
01:23:14.560 --> 01:23:19.000
a day. I could get lots done, have one quarter

972
01:23:19.000 --> 01:23:23.119
of hour break, that's all I needed. But that wasn't enough.

973
01:23:23.479 --> 01:23:27.239
They needed me to do more hours. So from pretty

974
01:23:27.279 --> 01:23:35.439
much September October two thousand and then six to June

975
01:23:35.600 --> 01:23:42.000
two thousand and seven, I was part time. And then

976
01:23:42.119 --> 01:23:45.279
they said they called me into your office and said

977
01:23:45.800 --> 01:23:50.079
I either have to go full time or leave, or

978
01:23:50.159 --> 01:23:55.600
go back to full time or leave. And I tossed

979
01:23:55.680 --> 01:23:59.920
and turned remember the manager saying, can you just wait

980
01:24:00.079 --> 01:24:03.279
to get home to do that? And so I got

981
01:24:03.319 --> 01:24:09.760
up off the floor and I thought, I said, okay,

982
01:24:09.760 --> 01:24:13.640
I'll stay, and then the next day said no, I'm

983
01:24:13.680 --> 01:24:17.159
not going to stay. And I kind of didn't know

984
01:24:17.399 --> 01:24:23.640
because at the time things had come together for me.

985
01:24:24.680 --> 01:24:26.880
So the beginning of two thousand and six, that's when

986
01:24:26.960 --> 01:24:34.119
I really started the making recordings online, doing free pay

987
01:24:34.199 --> 01:24:39.079
release service for people during two thousand and six and

988
01:24:39.479 --> 01:24:47.119
started doing like group sessions. So come October November two

989
01:24:47.199 --> 01:24:50.359
thousand and six, once I started to recover a bit

990
01:24:50.520 --> 01:24:54.479
and from being a bit unwell, I was able to

991
01:24:54.560 --> 01:24:59.560
do more stuff after work like more voluntary things, and

992
01:24:59.680 --> 01:25:02.680
I liked that it was nice to do that. Go

993
01:25:02.920 --> 01:25:07.239
and do some voluntary work, do some group relaxation sessions

994
01:25:09.119 --> 01:25:15.920
maybe two, three, four. I was doing like five or

995
01:25:16.000 --> 01:25:20.399
six group sessions a week in the like late afternoon

996
01:25:20.560 --> 01:25:26.439
or early evening. And then I kind of had to

997
01:25:26.520 --> 01:25:30.279
give that up if I went full time. So I decided, no,

998
01:25:31.399 --> 01:25:37.079
I'll just leave, and that's what I did. So I

999
01:25:37.159 --> 01:25:41.319
gave my notice a month's notice. I left the end

1000
01:25:41.399 --> 01:25:45.680
of June I think it was, And during that period,

1001
01:25:46.760 --> 01:25:55.119
I applied to go to university to do counseling, and yeah,

1002
01:25:55.119 --> 01:25:58.760
it all worked out well, you know kind of suppose

1003
01:25:58.840 --> 01:26:04.560
I yeah, got a degree in that side. That's good. Ah,

1004
01:26:05.600 --> 01:26:07.880
that would be so cool doing a degree, Like I'm

1005
01:26:07.920 --> 01:26:12.039
in a full time just going to college, going to

1006
01:26:12.199 --> 01:26:21.760
university that would be in a subject though that that

1007
01:26:21.880 --> 01:26:32.279
really grabs me something. I don't know something that I'm

1008
01:26:32.279 --> 01:26:37.279
already good at. I just have to find something that

1009
01:26:37.319 --> 01:26:40.159
I'm good at first. But it'd be nice to be

1010
01:26:40.720 --> 01:26:50.199
to go and be already knowledgeable in something. So I

1011
01:26:51.199 --> 01:26:55.159
really don't know who's going to be on Big Brother

1012
01:26:56.479 --> 01:27:02.119
this Sunday that's tonight, right, Sorry, this Monday. It's Monday already,

1013
01:27:02.119 --> 01:27:06.720
isn't it? At nine o'clock. I've got to find out

1014
01:27:06.800 --> 01:27:12.199
why Josie left Big Brother. So let's have a look.

1015
01:27:13.920 --> 01:27:17.840
There's got to be something in here. Big Brother, Big Brother,

1016
01:27:18.039 --> 01:27:25.079
Big Brother. In October two thousand, right, it was confirmed

1017
01:27:27.760 --> 01:27:30.439
after an interior to Vini McCall, she confirmed she was

1018
01:27:30.479 --> 01:27:33.359
going to take part an Ultimate Big Brother, then re

1019
01:27:33.600 --> 01:27:42.880
entered the Big Brother House eighteen minutes later. Whar blimey,

1020
01:27:43.920 --> 01:27:49.399
so she went straight? They did celepic Big Brother immediately

1021
01:27:49.680 --> 01:27:54.600
after the Big Brother series ended. I don't remember that,

1022
01:27:55.079 --> 01:28:00.560
blimey anyway. On day three of Ultimate Big Brother, Gibson

1023
01:28:00.840 --> 01:28:06.239
Josie Gibson, who had literally just won Big Brother. Oh,

1024
01:28:06.520 --> 01:28:08.479
I know, because she didn't. She didn't want to stay

1025
01:28:08.520 --> 01:28:11.800
in anywhere. She'd had enough, She'd already done that served

1026
01:28:11.840 --> 01:28:13.520
her time, and I don't think she just wanted to

1027
01:28:13.560 --> 01:28:16.760
be there anymore. She realized missing a family or something.

1028
01:28:17.800 --> 01:28:21.520
So you might think I'm reading this and I'm talking,

1029
01:28:21.560 --> 01:28:24.319
but this is my memory now. Gibson walked out of

1030
01:28:24.359 --> 01:28:28.439
the house while other housemates were nominating. It was confirmed

1031
01:28:28.479 --> 01:28:31.199
that she was not returning to the Ultimate Big Brother House.

1032
01:28:32.079 --> 01:28:36.800
She reunited with Parton I don't know partners seconds after

1033
01:28:36.920 --> 01:28:39.880
breaking out, as he was at the Big Brother compound

1034
01:28:39.960 --> 01:28:43.359
recording a message for her. Her fellow housemates shared their

1035
01:28:43.399 --> 01:28:48.239
sadness after her exit, with Arika Johnson crying an eventual winner,

1036
01:28:48.600 --> 01:28:50.920
Brian down and predicting that she would have won and

1037
01:28:51.000 --> 01:28:59.239
she had stayed. Who is John okay? She ended up

1038
01:28:59.239 --> 01:29:06.119
doing to her own really. In twenty ten, Gibson entered

1039
01:29:06.119 --> 01:29:09.199
the Big Brother House and throughout her stage, she receued

1040
01:29:09.279 --> 01:29:12.760
five nominations for eviction, never faced the public of vote,

1041
01:29:12.920 --> 01:29:16.960
the public of vote, the public vote. She entered into

1042
01:29:17.000 --> 01:29:22.000
a romantic relationship with fellow housemate John James Parton, and

1043
01:29:22.199 --> 01:29:25.039
upon leaving Big Brother, the couple confirmed they were dating.

1044
01:29:27.560 --> 01:29:30.479
On day sixty six a Big Brother eleven, Gibson was

1045
01:29:30.560 --> 01:29:33.079
selected by the of her helm housemates to receive a

1046
01:29:33.159 --> 01:29:38.319
ticket to the final. And oh that makes sense then,

1047
01:29:38.439 --> 01:29:44.279
So she's fallen in love with John James Parton during

1048
01:29:44.760 --> 01:29:50.399
that season of Big Brother, and because she wins, she

1049
01:29:50.840 --> 01:29:58.520
then gets put into the Big Brother Ultimate House. You know,

1050
01:29:58.720 --> 01:30:01.079
she gets offered to be in there. Yeah, but she

1051
01:30:01.239 --> 01:30:07.279
goes in, but she's missing John James Parton because that

1052
01:30:07.399 --> 01:30:11.279
was her new boyfriend, and let's well, let's be fair,

1053
01:30:12.000 --> 01:30:14.079
there's probably things they wanted to do that they weren't

1054
01:30:14.079 --> 01:30:16.880
able to do on camera. I can't think what it is.

1055
01:30:17.399 --> 01:30:22.840
I'm sure there was something, so yeah, I mean, is

1056
01:30:22.960 --> 01:30:30.880
she literally she had an interview with Davina McCall and

1057
01:30:31.000 --> 01:30:33.479
confirmed she's going to take part an Ultimate Big Brother

1058
01:30:33.960 --> 01:30:36.840
and then re entered the Big Brother House eighteen minutes later.

1059
01:30:37.880 --> 01:30:41.960
Now she might have had those eighteen minutes with John

1060
01:30:42.079 --> 01:30:49.600
James Parton. I mean, that's enough, well with arrest and

1061
01:30:49.680 --> 01:30:52.399
a cup of tea three or four times, but and

1062
01:30:52.520 --> 01:30:59.199
a biscuit and a sausage. I don't know who John

1063
01:30:59.319 --> 01:31:03.359
James partner is. Just a look is a picture of him,

1064
01:31:04.640 --> 01:31:18.439
John James Parton, John James Dad. I don't know. So

1065
01:31:18.680 --> 01:31:20.840
I wonder if they got married. Did hit her and

1066
01:31:24.920 --> 01:31:33.640
John James Parton get married. I really don't know. I mean,

1067
01:31:33.720 --> 01:31:37.960
she might be married. Did she get married, There's no

1068
01:31:38.039 --> 01:31:39.880
way of knowing not do. I mean, that's none of

1069
01:31:39.920 --> 01:31:42.399
my business for really, whether or not she got married

1070
01:31:42.479 --> 01:31:53.640
to John James Parton. H I'm saying a look personal life.

1071
01:31:55.399 --> 01:31:58.720
But she did give birth to a son, Reggie James.

1072
01:32:00.399 --> 01:32:04.960
So it's just a real kind of one name's not enough.

1073
01:32:05.840 --> 01:32:10.239
I'm getting a sense there, don't you like one name?

1074
01:32:10.279 --> 01:32:15.239
I mean, she's got three names, four names or three Josephine, Diane,

1075
01:32:15.319 --> 01:32:19.560
Shirley Gibson. So I'm thinking. Then she meets another man

1076
01:32:19.640 --> 01:32:24.159
that's got another man, but a man called John James Parton,

1077
01:32:25.119 --> 01:32:28.439
So I'm thinking he's got two names. She had three names.

1078
01:32:29.880 --> 01:32:34.319
She only really used to go by Josie. But I

1079
01:32:34.359 --> 01:32:38.720
don't know if John James Parton went by John James

1080
01:32:40.680 --> 01:32:42.720
or John. I mean, I would never call anyone with

1081
01:32:42.800 --> 01:32:53.680
two names. Never, never, never one name. One name is

1082
01:32:53.760 --> 01:32:56.119
enough for anyone. I don't think we need two names.

1083
01:32:58.159 --> 01:33:01.279
Apart from Billy Bob Billy Bob Thornton, I'd call him

1084
01:33:01.279 --> 01:33:04.640
Billy Bob. I might call him Billy Bobby, Billy Bobby

1085
01:33:06.399 --> 01:33:12.039
because well he's just protty, the coolest actor in the world.

1086
01:33:12.119 --> 01:33:19.399
I would say Billy Bob Thornton. It's so good. So yeah,

1087
01:33:19.560 --> 01:33:24.439
I'm not. Yeah, I've met a few people with two

1088
01:33:24.600 --> 01:33:31.319
names and they just get one. Sarah Jane Sarah. Not

1089
01:33:31.439 --> 01:33:35.239
call her Sarah Jane Sarah. Sorry, those are the rules.

1090
01:33:38.239 --> 01:33:41.000
I actually had this friend of mine, female friend at

1091
01:33:41.079 --> 01:33:46.000
school change her name, and I would not call her

1092
01:33:46.079 --> 01:33:49.239
by the name that she changed it to. I just

1093
01:33:49.640 --> 01:33:51.039
I don't know why. I don't know why I was

1094
01:33:51.079 --> 01:33:54.000
being because the thing is, I generally don't use people's

1095
01:33:54.079 --> 01:33:56.000
names anyway, because if I'm standing in front of them,

1096
01:33:56.960 --> 01:33:58.680
they know who I'm talking to. I don't need to

1097
01:33:58.720 --> 01:34:02.439
say their name. If I'm talking to them, they're not dog,

1098
01:34:02.960 --> 01:34:05.720
you know. If I'm talking of Vinny, like Vinny, it

1099
01:34:05.800 --> 01:34:08.760
gets his attention because he recognizes his name and he

1100
01:34:08.840 --> 01:34:12.000
often ignores me. But if it's a human being, then

1101
01:34:12.079 --> 01:34:14.920
you're just you and them talking. Unless you're going to

1102
01:34:14.960 --> 01:34:18.520
talk about them, there's no reason to use their name,

1103
01:34:19.640 --> 01:34:22.439
or if you're phone in for them and sort of asking, yeah,

1104
01:34:22.479 --> 01:34:27.880
it's Sarah there, Sarah. Don't know what? Good Sarah, Sarah

1105
01:34:28.239 --> 01:34:32.800
with the bluer hair. I don't know what Sarah the

1106
01:34:32.840 --> 01:34:39.920
blue hair, sixteen piercings, facious piercings. No, don't know Okay,

1107
01:34:40.239 --> 01:34:43.920
Sarah Jane, Oh, Sarah Jay, Sarah Jane. She's just there

1108
01:34:43.960 --> 01:34:52.760
with me. There you go, Okay, brilliant like not double baron.

1109
01:34:52.840 --> 01:34:55.880
Don't even get me start a double barret names. Ruh.

1110
01:34:56.760 --> 01:34:58.600
I don't really care. I just don't see the point.

1111
01:34:59.840 --> 01:35:01.680
Or I did have a girlfriend once and she said

1112
01:35:01.720 --> 01:35:05.920
to me, if we ever have kids, you're going to

1113
01:35:07.960 --> 01:35:10.039
the kid is going to have a double barreled name.

1114
01:35:10.359 --> 01:35:15.239
They'll have my surname and yours surname. I said, okay.

1115
01:35:19.159 --> 01:35:23.039
She said, you're right, but that I said, yeah, So

1116
01:35:23.319 --> 01:35:27.239
so I said, I said, okay for cool. So I've

1117
01:35:27.239 --> 01:35:29.680
got to pop out. She's we're going get some condoms.

1118
01:35:30.560 --> 01:35:33.359
So I'm not having a kid with a double barreled name.

1119
01:35:34.840 --> 01:35:38.520
We laughed, but she did. She said, either double barrel

1120
01:35:38.600 --> 01:35:41.439
name or the kid's going to be have my surname

1121
01:35:42.079 --> 01:35:46.439
like her surname. Like what, how about a bit of tradition.

1122
01:35:48.000 --> 01:35:50.640
I know, you know, you could say, yeah, but traditional.

1123
01:35:50.720 --> 01:35:54.079
How far do you want to go back? Slavery is traditional? Like, no,

1124
01:35:54.720 --> 01:35:57.439
come on, let's not be silly. It might be true,

1125
01:35:57.479 --> 01:36:05.640
but come on, just just something because I just like

1126
01:36:05.760 --> 01:36:10.039
the idea, you know, things like calling your kids, giving

1127
01:36:10.079 --> 01:36:18.600
your kids a name, name them after a relative. You know,

1128
01:36:18.920 --> 01:36:24.439
like my uncle was called Edward after my granddad, and

1129
01:36:25.079 --> 01:36:28.960
so that was his firstborn, first male, and the first

1130
01:36:29.079 --> 01:36:33.479
female was called Eileen after my nn. That was kind

1131
01:36:33.520 --> 01:36:36.720
of a traditional thing to do back then in America,

1132
01:36:37.079 --> 01:36:40.479
it's they put junior on the end. We don't do

1133
01:36:40.640 --> 01:36:47.960
that because we just don't do that here generally. I mean,

1134
01:36:48.439 --> 01:36:53.359
it can be I suppose if someone's really famous and

1135
01:36:53.399 --> 01:36:55.119
they've both got the same name, you'd like to say

1136
01:36:55.279 --> 01:36:58.680
senior and junior, so you know who's who. But generally,

1137
01:37:00.479 --> 01:37:04.119
you know, there's plenty of juniors that no one knows

1138
01:37:04.199 --> 01:37:07.279
who their parents were, so it's not like they're going

1139
01:37:07.359 --> 01:37:13.239
to get confused. You know, if my name was let's

1140
01:37:13.279 --> 01:37:17.640
say my dad's name was. Okay, I'm not a good example,

1141
01:37:17.720 --> 01:37:22.399
but it's so you know, if someone was famous and

1142
01:37:22.439 --> 01:37:24.640
they've got the same first name as their dad, but

1143
01:37:24.760 --> 01:37:27.680
their dad has never been famous and not known by anybody,

1144
01:37:28.920 --> 01:37:30.840
then there's no reason for them to p junior is

1145
01:37:30.920 --> 01:37:37.039
there on the end. But some people do that. I

1146
01:37:37.159 --> 01:37:43.840
want everybody to know I'm a junior. Well, I'm not

1147
01:37:43.880 --> 01:37:50.199
a junior. I'm not even a senior. You know. My

1148
01:37:50.720 --> 01:37:57.239
oldest brother, I don't know who was named after, but

1149
01:37:57.319 --> 01:38:00.159
I think he was named after Remember the family. Other

1150
01:38:00.279 --> 01:38:03.760
brother was named after, Remember the family. I think me

1151
01:38:04.680 --> 01:38:10.800
I was named after a TV character. It's true. In

1152
01:38:10.920 --> 01:38:18.600
the sixties there was a TV show called Jason Jason.

1153
01:38:21.079 --> 01:38:28.199
What was it, Jason King. That's it, Jason King. I

1154
01:38:28.319 --> 01:38:30.920
think he was like a detective and he had this

1155
01:38:31.079 --> 01:38:34.760
big mustache and maybe a beard, and apparently my dad

1156
01:38:34.920 --> 01:38:36.720
looked a bit like him, and people used to call

1157
01:38:36.800 --> 01:38:41.640
him Jason. And and this bloke was a sixties woman

1158
01:38:41.800 --> 01:38:44.520
eyes popular with a lady who's a bit of a

1159
01:38:46.199 --> 01:38:53.039
you know, a heart frog on TV. And my dad's

1160
01:38:53.039 --> 01:38:57.159
friends used to call him Jason as a nickname. So

1161
01:38:57.560 --> 01:39:03.600
that's what how I ended up with the name not

1162
01:39:03.800 --> 01:39:11.520
named after any family members, after some TV show. That's

1163
01:39:11.520 --> 01:39:14.319
why I decided, if I ever ever have a kid,

1164
01:39:15.520 --> 01:39:16.920
by have a daughter, I want to call a Wonder

1165
01:39:16.920 --> 01:39:25.119
Woman if it was a boy, Barnic Man or the

1166
01:39:25.199 --> 01:39:31.640
four Guy, because I liked both. I still think that

1167
01:39:33.199 --> 01:39:39.359
the Barnic Man, he was so handsome, wasn't he like

1168
01:39:39.479 --> 01:39:41.640
I know something about him? It's such a such a

1169
01:39:41.800 --> 01:39:50.199
handsome face iconic. I mean, can you imagine for those

1170
01:39:50.319 --> 01:39:56.720
that don't know, it's hard to even explain the popularity

1171
01:39:57.039 --> 01:40:00.520
of TV shows like The A Team or The Bionic

1172
01:40:00.680 --> 01:40:06.279
Man or Wonder Woman more can mindy? I mean, there's

1173
01:40:06.319 --> 01:40:09.600
so many different shows that were just huge that would

1174
01:40:09.680 --> 01:40:15.239
have or Dallas that would have literally twenty million people

1175
01:40:18.039 --> 01:40:20.680
in a country that at the time probably had about

1176
01:40:20.760 --> 01:40:24.760
fifty five million people, Like maybe half the population would

1177
01:40:24.760 --> 01:40:30.560
be watching this TV show on a Saturday night. Because

1178
01:40:31.399 --> 01:40:39.920
we only had three channels. It's very unlikely to get

1179
01:40:40.119 --> 01:40:47.680
any program on TV outside of maybe a huge royal

1180
01:40:47.800 --> 01:40:52.000
event that's going to have that many people watch in

1181
01:40:52.079 --> 01:40:56.840
this country. But then how big it was in America.

1182
01:40:57.560 --> 01:41:00.359
Probably had one hundred million people in America watching these shows.

1183
01:41:02.000 --> 01:41:04.520
And they'd have toys. The Bionic Man used to have

1184
01:41:04.600 --> 01:41:07.239
a thing where he could do its eye and look

1185
01:41:07.319 --> 01:41:10.800
through its eye, and it had a self gripping hands.

1186
01:41:11.039 --> 01:41:13.920
I think I might be thinking of just a normal

1187
01:41:14.000 --> 01:41:18.079
action man now, But you know, there was toys more Commindy.

1188
01:41:18.159 --> 01:41:22.000
There was a more Comindy toy, and an egg. There

1189
01:41:22.039 --> 01:41:24.079
was the Embassy, an egg that came I had the

1190
01:41:24.159 --> 01:41:26.600
egg I did. I didn't have the egg. I didn't

1191
01:41:26.640 --> 01:41:29.079
give birth to the didn't put it out. What I'm saying,

1192
01:41:29.720 --> 01:41:32.479
it wouldn't fit. But he I think he was like

1193
01:41:32.560 --> 01:41:35.960
he came out of the egg. As in the TV

1194
01:41:36.119 --> 01:41:39.760
show The A Team, they had action figures. Mister t

1195
01:41:41.399 --> 01:41:43.760
I say obviously, but I would I think it's fair

1196
01:41:43.800 --> 01:41:47.600
to say obviously the most famous, one of the most

1197
01:41:47.680 --> 01:41:53.359
famous faces of the early eighties, mister tea, what are

1198
01:41:53.359 --> 01:41:57.159
you talking about with this? And you got different strokes

1199
01:41:57.199 --> 01:42:01.039
of course. Then I put it a fall and it's

1200
01:42:01.119 --> 01:42:07.760
like some of these shows are so huge, and the

1201
01:42:08.039 --> 01:42:12.279
kind of have their own annuals, Like anally that'd have

1202
01:42:12.359 --> 01:42:15.680
a like a book or magazine would come out, which

1203
01:42:15.760 --> 01:42:21.119
would be like, you know, just stories and photographs and

1204
01:42:21.159 --> 01:42:28.960
stuff like that. Maybe Christmas it'd be yeah, like really big.

1205
01:42:29.560 --> 01:42:37.600
These were huge, huge shows, and now things seem to

1206
01:42:37.680 --> 01:42:41.720
be big for a short time, like the latest Netflix

1207
01:42:41.840 --> 01:42:47.279
series Adolescence. Not seeing it, I'm a little bit not

1208
01:42:47.319 --> 01:42:51.720
sure if I want to watch it or not, but

1209
01:42:51.960 --> 01:42:54.560
get huge amounts of people from around the world watch them,

1210
01:42:55.640 --> 01:42:59.079
and then it kind of just sort of disappear because

1211
01:42:59.079 --> 01:43:06.600
something else comes in life, and yeah, I don't know,

1212
01:43:06.680 --> 01:43:09.520
it's different now. I'm not saying it's better or it's worse,

1213
01:43:09.560 --> 01:43:16.720
it's just different kind of I used to look forward

1214
01:43:16.800 --> 01:43:20.880
to Saturday nights because of TV and it was quite

1215
01:43:20.880 --> 01:43:29.039
a nice environment at home. It was fairly peaceful. It's

1216
01:43:29.039 --> 01:43:31.279
about the only time really there was any kind of

1217
01:43:31.399 --> 01:43:36.199
real peace. It would be like Saday. Yeah, if we

1218
01:43:36.279 --> 01:43:41.880
weren't like, if we weren't getting told to do stuff,

1219
01:43:42.560 --> 01:43:46.399
it was quite peaceful. And a Saturday evening we'd sit around.

1220
01:43:46.880 --> 01:43:50.520
My dad would fall asleep in his chair. We'd watch

1221
01:43:50.760 --> 01:43:53.720
some movies. We've got DV, we've got videos out from

1222
01:43:53.760 --> 01:43:58.399
the video shop. We'd have a bagg of suites after

1223
01:43:58.479 --> 01:44:03.079
having had dinner, which is usually like bits and bobs

1224
01:44:03.119 --> 01:44:05.680
and sandwiches and crisps and stuff. That would be our

1225
01:44:05.800 --> 01:44:08.680
evening meal on a Saturday, be like a buffet kind

1226
01:44:08.720 --> 01:44:16.079
of thing. I think we were allowed to eat on

1227
01:44:16.199 --> 01:44:23.600
our lap as well while watching Telly I do. I

1228
01:44:23.680 --> 01:44:28.279
think back to those days, and they were good. Some

1229
01:44:28.399 --> 01:44:34.000
of those times were really really good times. Yeah, I

1230
01:44:34.079 --> 01:44:37.239
still love the videos. Just collect you're going to the

1231
01:44:37.319 --> 01:44:40.359
video shop. We'd get like three or four video tapes

1232
01:44:43.199 --> 01:44:46.479
and we're just this, it's brilliant, so good. But we

1233
01:44:46.560 --> 01:44:49.800
would watch stuff that we shouldn't be watching, you know,

1234
01:44:50.560 --> 01:44:54.119
like alien and zombie flesh eaters and stuff like that,

1235
01:44:54.199 --> 01:44:58.279
which we shouldn't have been watching. But you know, it's

1236
01:44:58.359 --> 01:45:01.159
just the things. That's how things word. Back then, there

1237
01:45:01.279 --> 01:45:06.279
wasn't such a big issue about it. But even the

1238
01:45:06.359 --> 01:45:09.199
TV shows I remember, I used to watch stuff because

1239
01:45:09.199 --> 01:45:10.800
we used to video a lot of things that were

1240
01:45:10.880 --> 01:45:15.439
on late all that went on forever, not really long

1241
01:45:15.520 --> 01:45:21.239
stuff like Shogun. It lasted every episode lasted about three months,

1242
01:45:23.000 --> 01:45:25.039
and I'd still sit and watch it because I just

1243
01:45:25.159 --> 01:45:27.840
like spending time with my step month and I'd just

1244
01:45:28.039 --> 01:45:31.479
watch it and just I think I would fall asleep.

1245
01:45:34.199 --> 01:45:38.600
But Richard Chamberlain, who recently left left us, Richard chamber

1246
01:45:38.640 --> 01:45:42.439
and I loved him. I used to watch Doctor Kildare,

1247
01:45:44.359 --> 01:45:47.520
you know, eighty three eighty four. Dr Kildare was on

1248
01:45:48.159 --> 01:45:51.760
about six o'clock in the evening, half five six on

1249
01:45:51.880 --> 01:45:55.479
BBC two I think called Channel four, and it was

1250
01:45:55.600 --> 01:46:01.800
like a nineteen sixties TV show. But I loved it.

1251
01:46:02.760 --> 01:46:05.680
I don't know, I just just loved that stuff. One

1252
01:46:05.720 --> 01:46:12.560
of my favorite shows was Mister Merlin, and it was

1253
01:46:12.640 --> 01:46:15.119
this per this bloke, mister it was Merlin, you know,

1254
01:46:15.239 --> 01:46:19.439
the actual magician or the wizard Merlin. But he was

1255
01:46:19.479 --> 01:46:26.199
in America and he was running a a car shop,

1256
01:46:26.279 --> 01:46:31.199
you know, or a garage or whatever. And Zachary, I

1257
01:46:31.279 --> 01:46:35.399
remember the name, Zachary. He was his apprentice and he

1258
01:46:35.520 --> 01:46:38.560
was teaching him, you know, to be a magician. It's

1259
01:46:38.600 --> 01:46:43.439
just all a wizard. I loved it. I loved that show,

1260
01:46:45.359 --> 01:46:50.720
The Three musket Hounds one four for one, I love,

1261
01:46:50.880 --> 01:46:56.159
love all that stuff. I just feel a little bit

1262
01:46:56.199 --> 01:46:59.800
out of date now, just like I'm not because TV

1263
01:47:00.239 --> 01:47:02.399
is not really as valid as it used to be.

1264
01:47:06.199 --> 01:47:08.760
With all the catch up and stuff, it's quite easy

1265
01:47:08.840 --> 01:47:15.079
to miss things. I think personally that that that continuity

1266
01:47:15.159 --> 01:47:20.199
has kind of gone a bit with EastEnders, the Coronation Street,

1267
01:47:20.680 --> 01:47:25.560
things like I used to watch, like Casualty or Holby City,

1268
01:47:26.239 --> 01:47:31.159
the Bill, London's Burning, things like that that I used

1269
01:47:31.199 --> 01:47:37.960
to watch really regularly when I was younger, and I

1270
01:47:38.039 --> 01:47:41.520
don't really watch hardly any of it, which I suppose

1271
01:47:41.600 --> 01:47:47.159
is why I'm excited and looking forward to two and

1272
01:47:47.199 --> 01:47:53.199
a half hours time when Celebrity Big Brother starts. Oh yeah,

1273
01:47:54.479 --> 01:48:00.720
Celebrity big Weather. Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah

1274
01:48:00.840 --> 01:48:05.640
yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah. Vinnie's now hefling me. I

1275
01:48:05.680 --> 01:48:10.319

01:48:30.479 --> 01:48:37.159
estimated delivery time. It's not tracking, it is it. I

01:48:37.399 --> 01:48:42.319
ordered it on Thursday. I think they said, so it

1282
01:48:42.319 --> 01:48:43.920
should have been here Friday. He said, we won't be

1283
01:48:44.000 --> 01:48:48.159
delivered to Friday. We'll delivered tomorrow. They said we can't

1284
01:48:48.199 --> 01:48:51.640
deliver today, We'll deliver Sunday. And now am I going

1285
01:48:51.680 --> 01:48:54.119

so I'm going to go. Thank you for listening. Remember

1288
01:49:05.239 --> 01:49:07.319
to be kind to yourself because you do deserve to

1289
01:49:07.359 --> 01:49:11.520
be happy and be gentle with yourself. You do deserve

1290
01:49:11.600 --> 01:49:16.119
to feel safe. Villie's making his little squealing noise. You

1291
01:49:16.159 --> 01:49:18.159
want to make a noose squeealing noise. I think he

1292
01:49:18.319 --> 01:49:23.199
might have heard Archie go past? Did you did you

1293
01:49:23.279 --> 01:49:26.800
hear one of your friends go past? Okay, take care,

1294
01:49:26.880 --> 01:49:34.960
lots of love, bye. What is it? What is it
