Oh, that's awful.

Because I just have so much fear of it going really badly wrong.

I think you get to a place in this as a job where you've put so much emphasis on like, oh, I've had one bad gig or this thing goes wrong.

Is that going to be the end of everything?

So I sort of just stopped and I concentrated on the acting, the writing.

And I was very fortunate to do that.

But then there was always this bit of me that was really wanting to get back to it.

so I was very fortunate really Ramesh was a big part of that really a boy making you go back yeah helping me and like as a friend and sort of someone who sort of built up because I had no confidence for it and I remember like he was doing a tour and he asked me to come and open for him and I turned up and I was just absolutely like

so needy and pathetic, like, shaking before, look at all that happened.

He was like, well, this is actually about me.

So I don't care.

It's a testament to Romesh as what a beautiful human being he is.

And I think that's the thing with stand-up, I was like, how do I just...

try to get better at this thing.

How can I be more open, more honest?

And I think this shows a lot more, I think, raw in a sense of like talking about mental health and trying to make that funny or just the difference in men and women of like when you get to like my age, I listen to my wife and her friends talk and so open.

It's beautiful to listen to women talk and how they're there for each other.

It's incredible.

They're going through the same thing.

There's changes happening.
