Thank you very much.
So will you watch the rest of it, do you think?
Yeah, and also because...
As you mentioned, he talks about the Gareth Southgate Shakespearean arc, which given that he's a quiet man, actually quite melancholic, despite the fact that he's asking people to play with smiles on their faces to bring back the joy, he doesn't immediately strike you as a joy-filled person.
He's a very thoughtful, very quiet, very melancholic person.
But they managed to capture that, absolutely managed to capture that.
And Joseph Fiennes did a wonderful job.
I just don't think of anyone else who would be able to do that.
Okay, well, speaking of joy, which is obviously what we try and bring you in every single podcast, let us grab that joy.
Let us discard our melancholia and step with abandon into our much-loved laughter lift.
I have to say, I don't really, yeah, I'm going to sack the scriptwriters because the material this week is slightly distasteful, I would say.
All right, go on.
Anyway, hey, Mark, I've been married to the good lady ceramicist who's been indoors for so long, I can tell when she's lying just by looking at her.
I'm also getting pretty good at spotting when she's standing up, too.
Mark, do you have any unusual sleeping habits?
Because I sleep completely in the buff.
Absolutely fine at home, but it does raise eyebrows on long-haul flights.
I mean, what is a no-fly list, by the way?
I've just got a very strange angry letter.
