Make sure you rate, review, do all of that crap.

54.667 - 57.551 Pete

You know the f***ing score by now, you bunch of f***ing idiots.

58.852 - 59.333 Sam

Well...

60.275 - 60.896 Pete

Emails.

60.916 - 61.977 Sam

Are we going straight to emails?

Chapter 2: What happened during the Adam vs Jimmy situation?

272.719 - 287.085 Sam

And then he started looking at everyone. He was on the bleachers, right? And he was looking down, being like, you agree with me? What do you think? Over there, and pointing at the other cast members. So he goes, Harry, what do you think? Harry's 80 years old. Harry sat there and he's going... Another one. Harry's probably sitting there, I don't care. Are you going to give a fuck?

0

287.165 - 306.823 Sam

Harry was literally sitting there shaking his head going, I don't know, Jimmy. He was like, I don't know. So it descends into a bit of chaos. Jimmy then starts talking about contracts. live on TV and produces. And he like names some of the producers, which I think is a bit unfair because like they're not art. They're not in the TV world, right? But they make it.

0

307.144 - 327.615 Sam

They make it, but he literally name drops them, right? And then he starts talking about contracts. So, you know, it's just like, oh God, like there's just, it's just a lot of like things discussed, which like make it quite hard, I think, to host a show like that. So it's bubbled on. It's bubbled on. Jimmy's like blown up. Adam hasn't said a word really at this point. He just looks really down.

328.756 - 351.788 Sam

And then Gemma and Sunita have walked off, off stage. This is literally five minutes for me and Kemi were meant to be going on stage and interviewing all of them. And so they're all just drip feeder people just leaving the stage. And they're coming past where me and Cammy are. And I was like, great. That was our second interview. Our third interview, lovely. And I can see the autocue is changing.

0

351.828 - 369.512 Sam

Our autocue is changing as they're walking off. And me and Cammy just looked at each other and we were like, this is like the first time we've ever done, like we've obviously hosted things before, but like never a live TV show in front of a live audience in a studio. And so like, we're just like, fuck, we don't know what to do. So we were like, let's just, let's just try and wing it.

369.492 - 383.787 Sam

So Gemma and Sunita have gone. I then am meant to come on. I actually hand Adam the scepter as like king of the jungle, right? So I go and hand him the scepter. So I like shuffle on, give him the scepter. I have seen a clip of it going, Sam, quick, quick, come on, quick as you can.

383.807 - 384.728 Pete

I got hurried on.

384.788 - 403.809 Sam

I got hurried on. Come on, come on, give him the thing, fuck off. Yeah, they literally went, they said to me, hurry up, mate. And I was like, here you go. And the crowd put the crown on his head. And I think the evening just really got to him. He looked like he was about to cry on the throne. And so I just stood back and when their show finishes, ours begins.

403.99 - 428.524 Sam

So ours is on ITV2, theirs is on ITV3. So the moment theirs finishes, ours starts. So I hand the crown on, walk back off stage to then walk back on stage. And as soon as Anna and Dave are gone, thank you so much for joining us. In my ear, it's three, two, one, and walk. So we're walking in. Adam Thomas, who was our first interview, we were meant to walk on stage, go to the throne,

Chapter 3: How did Sam feel about hosting his first live TV show?

1627.332 - 1637.624 Pete

Because it's dangerous. Like, what... Imagine riding a T-Rex. No one did that then. Why would you be the one to wrangle a T-Rex and ride it?

0

1637.644 - 1659.69 Sam

No one did that back then. Mate, you watch. Mate, if I went through the time portal first and then you gave me a month and you came through the time portal, I would greet you on my T-Rex. Based on all your experience with animals to cats. Yeah, absolutely. And I would greet you and go, Peter. And then I'd be riding my guy and I'd be like, bring it in. I've got one for you. I love your world.

1661.51 - 1678.391 Sam

Shall we do question time? The Jurassic period. Oh yeah, I forgot about question time. Lovely. Question time. Right, okay, Pete. If you're a woman, what would your fashion sense be? Oh, I know. Oh, I'd love to go, but no, you go. I shan't do that to you.

0

1679.392 - 1695.918 Pete

I don't know. Oh, I know exactly why. Go on. Oh, okay. I don't really understand the question. Well, if you're a woman, what are you dressing as? What, a woman? But, I mean, like, when you say what fashion sense, what would I be, like... Like, what outfit would you wear on a night out? Obviously, OOTD.

0

1697.12 - 1697.541 Sam

Well, it depends.

1697.561 - 1701.41 Unknown

Are you going bodycon dress, heels? That was going to be, don't steal mine. And wasn't.

1701.53 - 1734.057 Sam

No, no, no. That's not actually mine. Mine's a miniskirt. Mine's a fluffy mini skirt, a white frilly mini skirt. Not fluffy. A white frilly mini skirt for me, just above the knee. Some cowboy boots. Pippa, you should be so lucky as to have that style. Some cowboy boots, right? And a white crop. No, a black crop, a white frilly skirt and cowboy boots. Or just some biker boots.

1734.077 - 1740.068 Pete

So you're going biker boots from the knee down and from the knee up you're dressed in white.

1740.168 - 1744.576 Sam

No, not knee down, ankle biker boots. An ankle biker boot. Yeah.

Chapter 4: What exciting news does Sam share about Hailey Bieber?

2063.852 - 2068.703 Sam

Lamp. And the essentials. Lamp and the essentials on my bedside table.

2068.923 - 2069.565 Pete

No essentials.

2069.585 - 2072.992 Sam

And my Bibles in the first drawer. Of course it is.

2073.853 - 2079.625 Pete

Aside from the obvious, what would you change about yourself? Now, first of all, before we get on to what would you change about yourself, what's the obvious?

0

2080.938 - 2086.385 Sam

Aside from your shit chat and your butter's nose, what else would you say?

2086.405 - 2089.449 Unknown

What's the obvious? It's just what was written in the question box.

2090.991 - 2096.999 Sam

So what's the obvious? No, I've got a question for Pippa. It's not up to me to say. Pippa, if you had to pick one obvious from me and Pete.

2097.019 - 2098.901 Pete

Yeah, that we should change, what would it be?

2099.081 - 2100.824 Unknown
