And I didn't do it initially.

I mean, it took me several weeks to get round to doing it.

And Gary Hamilton, who, God bless him, tall, dark and handsome Gary, and he said to me, look, I'll hold your hand, you know, we'll stand at the back.

I don't know why we thought that was going to make any difference because it was all especially lit, you know, there were pools of light.

I remember.

It was very tastefully done.

And it was meant to represent rebirth.

I mean, there was a reason for it.

It wasn't just gratuitous.

But nevertheless, we all had to be under this.

And Paul Nicholas never had to do it because he was the leading player.

He played Claude.

And then at a given moment, we all had to pull over this Velcro, which was very new at the time and made a lot of noise.

and stand up through this, with all your bundle of clothes underneath and stand up naked and it was just horrendous and there was Gary and I'm standing next to Gary and I, so the moment comes and oh, I can't tell you how awful it is and you stood up like that and it was so awful and I was so in shock.

Narrowly.

Yes, yes.

It wasn't his hand I was holding.

I know, don't.

How awful.
