There's just something about creatures without legs that freak me out.

It's just the way they move.

And I remember having to be very brave at a kid's party when someone had brought animals to entertain the kids and this little tiny snake wrapped itself around my arm.

And I was just looking at the lovely man doing the party going, please take it off my arm.

I'm trying to be calm.

I'm trying really hard to be calm in front of the kids and not be like...

but yeah snakes scare me a little bit my grandad used to he was a really keen fisherman so we always had a fridge full of maggots because that would be his fishing bait and then and then you'd get home if you'd had a successful day fishing and you'd go to get in the bath at my grandparents house because I used to spend a lot of time there eels eels in the bath

Oh my God, that's like my idea of hell.

It's awful.

Because also they must be really hard to catch.

Because they're just, well, they slither everywhere, I know.

But then my grandma would cook them, honestly.

This was, you know, back in the early 70s, I guess.

So he'd catch the eels, keep them in the bath, then grandma would go and get them.

She'd cook them and we'd walk into the kitchen, the smell of eels.

Jellied eels.

No, no.

When people talk about eels being a delicacy now, I just can't get past the bath.

Yeah.

There you go.
