What unique customer perk does Octopus Energy offer involving flowers?

Marina Hyde 0:01
The rest is entertainment is presented by Octopus Energy. Now, flowers, Richard, are a very important part of show business.
Richard Osman 0:08
And there is a reason we're talking about flowers. As always with Octopus Energy, they do very interesting things for their customers. We will get to what they do with flowers. But yes, it's sort of the currency that runs everything.
Marina Hyde 0:18
Yeah. I mean, in The Bachelor, it's actually part of the format, right? The rose ceremony. So that flower is really earning its money.
Richard Osman 0:25
Yeah. Can you imagine the person, by the way, there will be a rose wrangler on that show who has to make sure that the roses are absolutely perfect. That's like a completely full-time job.
Marina Hyde 0:33
Also a full-time job doing flowers for Elton John. Oh my goodness. One of the great lines in a court case ever when one of his managers was accused of ripping him off and they discovered in court that he'd spent £293,000 on flowers in 20 months. QC was like, sorry, how's that possible? He said, I like flowers.
Richard Osman 0:51
Now, shall we get on to Octopus Energy? They have a sort of committed team who always look after your account. So if you get an email from them, it's the same people. But also they get to know you so well that sometimes they'll understand if you're going through a hard time. And what they will do is they will send you flowers.
Marina Hyde 1:07
It's not an apology. It's just because someone was going through something and you get your flowers.
Marina Hyde 1:23
Hello, and welcome to this episode of the Rest is Entertainment Questions and Answers Edition. I'm Marina Hyde.
Richard Osman 1:28
I'm Richard Osman. Hello, everybody. Hello, Marina.
Marina Hyde 1:31
Hello, Richard. How are you?
Richard Osman 1:32
Yes, I'm good. I have a mea culpa to start with, but I think you might have one as well.
Marina Hyde 1:36
I have one too, and I can hardly believe I'm saying this, but the QR code inviting people, just asking if they would like to sign up to pay the license fee that was shown during the World Cup games.
Richard Osman 1:47
Which we talked about a while ago.
Marina Hyde 1:48
Which we talked about. as the tournament went on, has in fact been very successful. I'm not going to get into specifics, but it has been very successful. And I think it's interesting, the honesty box approach, as it were, has actually, which I felt created some friction in advance of watching a game, if you didn't really need to do it. I stand corrected. And I'm very pleased to say that many people have signed up for the license fee that way. So I stand corrected.
Richard Osman 2:17
And it's worth it for Guy Mowbray every time just saying, and if you want to pay your license fee, the QR code is there. And for the last time, please don't shoot the messenger. This is a guy who's just like, I cannot make it clear. I'm live, so you can't stop me. I cannot make it clear that I do not want to say this. But it works.
Marina Hyde 2:33
Well, thanks for saying it, Guy, because it has worked.
Richard Osman 2:35
My mea culpa is we spoke about reunions that didn't work. And I was talking about East 17, the documentary we made about them. And I said, it's unbelievable. They're not back together. Andrew Forecastle said, I have great news for Richard. East 17 are back. They performed recently at an annual passholder event at Chessington World of Adventures. They were brilliant. Wow. Of course they were. They've got the songs.
Marina Hyde 2:55
Yeah, they have got the songs.
Richard Osman 2:57
They've got like kind of eight songs that you go, oh, and this one.
Marina Hyde 3:01
Yeah.
Richard Osman 3:01
And this one, yeah. Okay. So very, very good news for License V and East 17 fans.
Marina Hyde 3:06
Yes.
Richard Osman 3:07
Shall we get on to some questions? Please. I have a question for you. It is from Philip Sawyer. And Philip says, I saw the most incredible TikTok featuring a person called Law Roach taking a jet to Paris Fashion Week, grabbing an haute couture chaparelli gown from the runway, then taking a private jet to London immediately to dress Zendaya in the gown for the Odyssey red carpet. First off, I like a question that has first off in it. First off, who the hell is Law Roach? And when did stylist become so powerful?
Marina Hyde 3:33
Okay, this is a great question because he is absolutely amazing. He has been with her a long time. He calls himself an image architect. He is genuinely amazing.
