You could get something to eat after a show.

I mean, there was a whole trade, and most restaurateurs nowadays will tell you that there's no trade after the theatre.

Whereas in the old days, you'd go to the Wolseley, say, or the Ivy, and it would be ram-packed after the theatre.

All the clubs down here were in Soho as well.

They would be full, wouldn't they?

Because you'd have pre-dinner or post-dinner tables, wouldn't you?

Even people going to see, let alone the actors and the actresses in the plays.

So, yeah, when you think about it now, it's a whole different landscape.

People just don't go out that late anymore, do they?

No, eat before, see the show, go home.

People make a virtue of having a table at six o'clock.

They get very excited, even if they haven't got to go to the theatre afterwards, so they can be home in bed for ten.

So you look back on that life, it must feel... It's very different.

Because of this weekend, we've looked back quite substantially, because I actually posted on my Instagram feed, Michael's Instagram feed, I posted some of the footage from our wedding in 1986, which was...

my brother, bless him, quite rudimentary because video cameras were a very, very new thing.

And the only reason we had one was that Richard Griffiths, the most wonderful actor of all time, who we love, who was Jack's godfather, had done a film abroad.

I think he was in Hong Kong doing a film with Madonna and Sean Penn.

And as a wedding present, he brought back for us a video camera.
