It hasn't all come quickly for you, but it's been amazing.

And what I wanted to start with was just kind of your origin story, your superhero origin story, which is you kind of lived dual lives growing up.

Because your mom and your dad came from completely different worlds.

You were born in Cambridge, which I was in Cambridge weeks ago.

I was hanging around at the university and it was just, oh my God, Hogwarts exists.

It's almost like a theme park because it's exactly what you think the quintessential old British, you know, university should look like.

But you then have this kind of, I wouldn't say schizophrenic, but dual world that you're living in where if you're hanging out in your dad's world,

in whether it's Essex or Cambridge, you feel like an outsider, I'm imagining in some ways.

And then if you're visiting with your mom's people, that's a whole different experience.

That's really all you need to know.

Well, I don't know what you think about this, but I've always...
