Dominic Sandbrook stood in for you here, and then you stood in for Dominic Sandbrook on the BBC History thing.

Similar consequences.

So is this one episode?

Right.

Two episodes.

Okay.

Well, listen, I had a fabulous weekend because Bernie weren't playing because one of the other teams we were meant to play were in the Cup semi-final.

I stayed in the house all weekend apart from going swimming in the morning and taking the dog for a walk.

And I sat on the sofa.

with three books and non-stop football on in the background, which occasionally I watched.

So you sort of read and then you look at the screen reader.

And I did a bit of work.

And then on the Sunday... Is the sound on on the television?

Yes.

And I only put it up when there's something sort of... So I've got a feel for whether it's going to be exciting or not.

Some of the Scottish football in particular was fantastic at the weekend.

So I was reading these books, and I then decided on Sunday morning, when I heard what had happened to Trump, or what hadn't happened to Trump, when the guy going into the hotel a long distance from where Trump was, and I thought, this is going to be a complete news sponge.

So much blather and babble is going to be spoke.

I don't want to watch it.

So I just didn't look at my phone.
