So yeah, so I've come to the point where I actually, you know, I take it in my stride.

If you want me to be specific about which exercises, I have no idea.

The reason I'm thin is because my father was thin.

I mean, in fact, if you look at me, you're looking at my father.

You're looking at my father only my father was very satisfyingly slightly shorter than I am.

But other than that, I'm playing a part at the moment which is set in 1975.

So I'm playing somebody of my age in 1975 which would have been about the same as my dad.

And I'm dressed as my โ€“ I mean by accident really.

But I looked at myself yesterday morning in the trailer mirror and I was wearing a knitted green waistcoat, a pair of big pleated gray heavy trousers and a Marks and Spencer's shirt and tie.

With my hair slicked back and a pair of 1940s glasses and you're looking at my father.

And I sent it to my sister and she nearly fell off the phone.

She was like, oh my God, because I didn't put anything under it.

She thought her father had come back to life or something.

And I sent it to my brother and they were both like, oh my God, you know.

Anyway, the trainer tells me what to do.

My exemplary trainer, Matt Bamford, reaching out for sponsorship, no chance from Matt.

He is an exemplary trainer.

And the reason that I stayed, you know, people have given me free membership to, you know, posh gyms where a smoothie costs you 14 quid.

The last time I did that, a young man inducted me and the next day I couldn't get out of bed and I sent him a bunch of flowers and I said, I'm sorry, but this is not for me.
