But he'd obviously had to work hard and be a good student to get there.
And he was going to go on doing that.
I remember Frankie, as she was called.
I didn't know her very well.
I knew Andy, but she was a big character in the college.
And she was quite a kind of cool, glamorous person.
I remember seeing it on the TV, yes.
And in some ways, it wasn't so surprising because she was a super confident person.
But for a Cambridge student to go on blind dates seemed a really cool thing to do.
And I remember Cilla saying, you know, and so you're a student, Luffy.
Where are you a student?
And Frankie said, oh, at Cambridge University.
And the whole audience went, wow.
Oh, gosh, that's a good question, isn't it?
I mean, first of all, his choosing to do English is itself quite striking, I think.
Because from his background, you know, his parents didn't go to university.
Very often, of course, especially boys from that sort of background will choose to do something which is much more obviously careerist.
Law, economics, medicine, all that sort of stuff.
So choosing to do English shows, I hope, but he has a vein of...
of imagination and idealism.
