And then speaking to an actress friend of mine, she was saying, I smelled the smell of lavender just before I went on.
It was tangible.
I could smell it.
And then you read up about this and it's like the smell of lavender is connected to Dan Lino, who was the musical star, originator of the pantomime dame.
The smell of lavender is apparently a perfume that he wore.
And if you smell it, then it will bring you good luck in your show.
And here's somebody I know who I trust, who smelled that lavender.
Was that her imagination or was that Dan Lino appearing next to her in that moment going, have a good show, go on, do it, do it for me.
And I think...
Yeah, and I think, you know, it's also about the reason for telling these stories.
You know, people do not benefit from telling these stories.
And they sometimes, you know, I think... All right, OK, I'll qualify that.
They benefit, I think, in the sense that it's cathartic.
I think everybody who's been on Uncanny finds it therapeutic.
And, you know, certainly some people have found it profoundly therapeutic.
I think about one of the cases we did on the TV series Shadow Man, where the guy, Julian, walked into the studio, this kind of almost broken man,
by these experiences he's had, which terrified him.
And I think, you know, he got this kind of, you know, this monkey off his back, you know, he got, you know, an incredibly cathartic experience, I think, by telling his story and felt better for doing that, you know, but these people aren't benefiting in the sense of like, you know, you're not getting like magazine deals and making loads
of money out of it, that kind of thing.
People often have these suspicions of people, oh, they're just doing it for the attention, the publicity, you know, and you think, you know, why would these people put themselves out there for that?
