Which one are you going? You're looking at me right now, the weaselly boy. That's me.

Okay. Here is a portrait done by his wife, Emma. Okay, right. So this is through his wife's eyes. This is through, yes, exactly. This is love for you. Yeah, rat.

I was right. So, Annie, is he playing up to the Frenchiness here with the beret and the rat boy look?

He drew attention to himself. And certain people were like, this guy is a bit of a douchebag. Still being talked about. So he's as stylish as Nigella, as French as Raymond Blanc. And also Alexis Soyer is doing charity work. He's a man of the people. Do you know where he did charity work? In which country?

No. It's Ireland. I should have guessed it. Sir Ed, have you heard of the Irish potato famine? I have. We're a comedy show, but I think for the next two, three minutes, it's a bit of a gear change. This is a tragedy, right, Annie? This is a million die, probably a million have to emigrate. It's a devastating, horrible thing. And he responds to it in quite an interesting way.

You might have heard of this one, the Crimean War. I have heard of that one. So that's a long way to travel. This is 1855. We know about this war because of Mary Seacole and Florence Nightingale, but for listeners who don't know where Skitarii is, which is where he went to, Skitarii weirdly is in Turkey, a totally different country to where the war was happening. 300 Meilen entfernt.

Und er bringt seinen magischen Stuhl. Natürlich bringt er es überall. Es bringt es überall, aber es ist wirklich nützlich für die Soldaten. Es ist schmucklos, was bedeutet, dass sie es in den Kriegsfällen nutzen können, weil es nicht zeigt, wo der Feind ist, wo du bist. Und die britische Armee hat es verwendet, bis die Falklandswahl.

I love him. I've talked about him a lot, but no one knows who he is. Historians know him and no one else.
