And again, we didn't do... The pandemic could have been... Get load worse than we could have behaved in a much more venal way.

Well, no, I think, well, no, don't get me wrong. I like, I can absolutely have total moments of complete and utter staring into the abyss sort of to awake at 4am. Right. You know, the sort of carnival of horrible thoughts going through your head and you worry desperately about your children and you worry desperately about the future and where are things going? So I can absolutely do all of that.

And, and, And oddly, the more of us who are worried, the better. Oh, I agree. I agree with that. I think that was the thing with the pandemic that really struck me was I was one of these people who, as soon as the first reports, I remember I was on holiday over Christmas when that happened. There were reports of like, there's something going around. There's a virus.

There's something, respiratory illness in China and blah, blah, blah. And I thought, that's going to come. That's going to sweep. We're going to get that. I don't like the look of that. And I was really worried about it. At the point when everyone was worried about it, I can kind of...

the dread in me drops a little because there's nothing more scary than thinking everyone else is being blasé and complacent about something that's worrying you. It's the wasp at the picnic that no one else is... I'm the one who can't relax if there's one wasp at the picnic. And if everyone's worried about the wasp, you move the bloody picnic blanket somewhere else or someone catches it in a glass.

And so you kind of have to hope that our survival instinct will... realize that we need more of us we need as many of us as possible to survive and that i don't know i don't know i don't know um are you uh are you gonna is this is this uh ever stop in your head do you think you'll always be show or this show the world um the i would i'd like to think it's something that can keep

can keep morphing, can keep... We've done... We keep... You know, I keep changing... I keep doing different types of episodes. We've done a sequel for the first time. We've done an interactive one a few years ago. You can do sort of feature-length ones and short ones. So I kind of think it's something that can be oddly... that can be very reactive to... what's going on.

Hopefully it's a weird, it's like I said, it's a very odd show to do. I'm aware that also it's a bit like being in a band where we did a load of punk singles early on. And so you get some sort of fans who just want you to do punk singles, but we also did some that are a bit more like big love ballads or something that were also really popular. And so now you're kind of trying to, so I have to not,
