Maybe It's Mabelene is such an iconic piece of music. Hit the track. Everyone in the studio that I worked on this jingle with all had like childhood stories or memories. Yeah, we're around either watching these commercials on TV or sitting with our moms while they were doing their makeup and it became really personal for us. And welcome to Memory Lane.

I'm Jen Bristair and I'm Kerry Godleman. Each week we'll be taking a trip down Memory Lane with our very special guest as they bring in four photos from their lives to talk about. To check out the photos we'd be having a natter with them about, they're on the episode image and you can also see them a little bit more clearly on our Instagram page.

So have a little look at Memory Lane podcast. Come on, we can all be nosy together. So I've got this photograph, Kerry, I wanted to show you. Yeah. Okay. So remember the other week when we were talking about how Susie and I went on a rave? Yes.

So this is a photograph that was taken at the rave. Can you see that? Yes. And the reason why we took that photograph is because Susie and I are constantly being confused. We're not being confused with each other. You want to prove that you can be in the same room at the same time. We are, I just wanted to prove shift work as comedians. The amount of times I have had people say to me, oh, I love that bit that you do.

Or they'll come up to me go, are you a comedian? and I'll say, yeah, I am a comedian. They say, oh my God, you are hilarious. I've been following you for ages. I love your podcast and all that time I'm thinking, okay, because I have got routines and I do do a podcast. And then they say, the bit you do about cervical smears is hilarious. And I'm like, that's not me.

Oh, really? Does that happen all the time? That's Susie Rufford. All the time. In fact, we get it. We get it. Like Susie will put up a post of her on, you know, and then somebody go, yeah, I love that bit that you do,

and it'll be one of my routines. I love that bit that you do about the playgrounds. I love that bit you do about your Spanish mum. And Susie's like, you're on my page. It says Susie Ruffle, and you still think I'm Jim Brista. What the fuck. We are constantly being confused with each other. So we took that photograph together to prove that we don't even look alike.

We're not the same person and everybody. And also, Susie's utterly offended by the fact that anyone would think that we were the same age. because I'm 11 years older. She's like, that is so fucking annoying. And I'm like, I get it. Oh, man. I've had to dye my hair so I can keep up with Susie.

Otherwise. You're not completely different genre of humour, are you? I mean, there we did look quite similar, to be fair. You look like, you look like twins. We've got the same haircut and we are both wearing white t-shirts. Like, if I was the parent of these twins, I'd dress them differently so that they didn't have an identity crisis. I mean, I don't think that photograph is the best example of how different we are.

I mean, what you were trying to achieve, you have not achieved with that photograph. Like, one of you need to wear like Dili Boppers or something. You need to differentiate. Like, you've got the same hair. We're doing that picture. You're right. We've got the same hair. And you're both wearing a white t-shirt.

And we're both wearing a white t-shirt. Are you trying to tell me that that isn't doing what? It's not done what you set out to achieve. In fact, the opposite. Oh, dear. But you can see what two. separate people. But you are in the same room at the same time. So it does prove that you are two separate people. So yes. I just want to put it out there to people that I am not Susie Ruffle and

Susie Ruffel and that we are different people. That's all. And I wanted to use that podcast so that people don't go up to Susie Ruffle later on in the year and go, I love that podcast that you do with Kerry Godleman and she'll say, I don't know what the fuck you're talking about. I'm not John Bristair. Well, I think you've done what you set out to achieve and that photograph is putting it out there. Honestly, she got you in a headlock. that's affection. Right. Yeah, no, that's...

You look like you're not comfortable with it. Well, I think what happened was, I was dancing next to her, and she went, Jen, come here, grab me by the head, and then someone took a photo, and I went, oh, what are we doing? And she said, we're having a photo to prove that we're separate people. And I went, oh, okay, and that's what that moment is. And that's why I'm smiling, because I'm like, oh, yes, look at us. We aren't the same person.

No, but it's not... I wouldn't say it was a joyful smile. I'd say it was a hostage smile. What do you mean? That's as joyful as I get. I mean, most of the messages that I've got with Susie on WhatsApp is just me forwarding her things that people have said to me. So they're joining in with a joke now? No.

I mean, I'm... They're winding up, babe. Whenever I send her stuff, it's like people completely not knowing that we are not the same person. So I just forward it to her and then she'll forward it to me when it happens to her. And that's what we have. We've got like this... What I like to think is that it's... your fans are very funny and that they're winding you both up.

I would love to think that, but I'm pretty sure. I think they're all in communication with each other and they're like, right, you, you send her that polo clip of her talking about la la and say it's her. And they're all in on it. It says they just got asked if I was Jen Brister and Waitrose. Yeah, you see, they're all in on the joke now. Anyway. If I was one of your fans and I followed both your stuff, your social.

and your pods, I'd be like, if I saw you out and about, I'd go, I'm going to go up to her and ask her if she's Susie Ruffle. Yeah, but that's because you're a knob. I feel like now I put it out there, or rather you've put it out there, to wind me up. Now, I feel like it's going to happen a lot. Listen, all Jen Bresors and Susie Ruffles fans, wind them up more. Go up to them in waitros and mamas and puppers and Bodham and say, you won't find me in Bodo.

When she's out there, see swimming. and go up to her right when she's out at the end of the pier, totally lost in her own thoughts. Excuse me? Are you, Susie Rathol? If you see me in Asda, then you'll know that's not Susie. You won't see me in waitrose. I'll be an ASDA.

It has to be ASDA. It might be like an extreme sport, like going up to you and asking if you're someone else and sorts of not getting punched in the face. Yeah, that's true. I'm very polite, actually. I just look at them like that with these eyes and go, no, that's not me.

Yeah. Because one of my favorite faces in your whole carousel of faces is when people come up to me and ask, like when people recognize me. And this is the highlight. The highlight of my son. There's no context. There's no context for this. You're bringing this up as if there's some sort of like. But you just pulled that face like when when people come up and give you compliments.

And I thought, oh, I know that face. What? No. That, again, I've got to come. create some context around this. Okay. So when we went to Gustonbury, a couple of years ago, we were out and about and we could not walk further than 50 feet without someone stopping you and

and being insane. Not just going, oh, I really like your after life. Just women screaming in your face. Because I think I'm dead. Because they can't believe that you're alive and then wanting to hug you. It wasn't It wasn't me going, oh, I can't believe people like Kerry. It was more like, who are these utter freaks that don't understand its fiction? She's not dead. It's acting. Do you think, Peter, fucking hell.

It's one of my favorite combination of facial expressions. Disgust and bewilderment. You're really good at that fact. I was utterly bewildered that they didn't know you were, that they were surprised you were alive. also there'd be times where we'd be watching a band and there'd be a group of people inching closer and closer and closer to us in the creepiest way to get to get near you I found it insufferable you were fine about it

and I was like I didn't even notice it most of the time well at one point you noticed it because we had to move because they got really weird they were weird we had to move but I like it when people come up to you and fan girl you and you're total shock You're always surprised by your fans. People come over and go,

Oh my gosh, you're Jim Bristol, I love you. And you're like, what? You're just completely like, I think you must have made a mistake. Like, Jen, they haven't made a mistake. They really did you. No, no, they must have made a mistake. It is weird because I'm like,

how do you know who I am? You need to work on your face. Right, let's roll play this. I'm going to come over to you and say, I'm a big fan of your work. No, don't immediately pull that fucking face. You're like bewildered, utterly. bewildered like someone's deranged for digging your stand-up.

Wait, I'm going to take my glasses off so. Here we go. My full face. Okay, I'm going to come up to you. Hello. Hi, my God, are you, Jen Brister? Fucking hell. Yes.

I am a massive fan. I absolutely, and I know who you are. I know you're not Susie Ruffle. I know you're Jen Brister. And I absolutely love your work. Okay. Thank you. Jesus Christ.

Wow, come on. Put a bit of appreciation in there, babe. Thank you so much. I hope you're having a lovely day. Bye. Can you not sound like a fucking robot? All right, okay, well, let's flip this. Let's flip this.

Your turn. No, I don't want to. Yeah, no, we're going to. We're flipping it. No, I don't want to. Kerry, obviously, I'm not good at it, but I want to learn how to get better. No, that's not how this game works.

It's not how the game works. Then, here we go. No. Kerry, you're at Glastonbury Festival. Okay, cool. I know it's an audio media. You've got your side on, side on, side on. Okay.

Oh my God, oh my God, I think that's Kerry Godman. Wait, should I go and say something? No, you go and say something. I'll go and say something. Okay, I'm going to go and say it. Hi, I loved afterlife. I think you're amazing. Oh, thank you so much.

Thank you. That is literally, I've never seen you respond like that ever. And frankly, that was more terrifying than the weirder that came over. Oh God, now I sound like I'm having an asthma attack. Stop making me laugh. What we've established is, I don't think fame suits either of us. No.

Maybe we're in the wrong business. No, I like it. I like it. I'm just not good at faces. Well, I tell you what was... Which isn't ideal for an actor. No, exactly. I tell you what was interesting

when we went to see Gok-Wan and Gok is a very, very lovely man. Um, he, his fame is insane. Like people, when he came down stairs to go on stage, people went bananas. Everybody wants to touch him. Everybody wants to selfie with him. Everybody wants to like, you know, get a piece of him. He was he with it.

He was charming. Yeah. He dealt with it because people were being quite handsy with him. Like, you know, he's, it's just a guy doing a job. Yeah. And we're trying to grab him and everybody wanted a piece of him. And he was utterly like, he just sort of took it all in his own stride. and he didn't get cross and he didn't.

He was utterly, oh, I don't. Yeah, completely charming to everybody. And pleasant and welcoming and kind. And I watched it and Chloe went, you could never be that famous because you wouldn't be able to handle that. And I was like, oh God, you're absolutely right. I couldn't handle that.

Like people grabbing me, I'd be like halfway down the stairs telling people to fuck off. You know, it was just, I think there are certain people that can manage that level of fame and there are certain people that can't. And I think maybe, maybe it's good that I am where I am. Yeah.

I am where I am. Keep it going. Keep this going. I'm on a podcast with Kerry Godleman. It's had reasonable ratings. We're hoping it'll go higher, but not so high that it ruins our quality of life. Isn't it great that nobody knows who I am? They think I'm Susie Ruffle.

That has been a. Boone in my life. I've lost my way. I actually realised halfway through I didn't know what I was in. I liked it. As a first draft I thought it was very workable. Kerry,

who are we talking to in this week's episode of Wembley Lane? Who are you now? What character are you doing there? Well, I thought I'd go... End of the Pier. Okay. So I was just bringing some end of the peer vibes. I think we can't always

deliver these introses in the same. way. I'm offering something a bit different. Okay. Do it again? Okay. Kenny Godleman. Why don't you? To us, who are we talking to today on the podcast? Today, we are talking to Hugh Davis. Oh, lovely Hugh.

He wasn't what I expected. Why, what were you expecting? I don't know, I thought he'd be more deadpan or more kind of... I thought we'd have to work on him a bit to get his stories out. But he was available. He is quite deadpan. And the reason why you think that is because he's very deadpan on stage. Yes, he is.

But he's actually very animated off stage. And he had some fantastic stories and we love talking to him. So here we are talking to Huge Davis. I've started learning the guitar, I'm nice. Oh, really? I learned the guitar late too and it's one of the best things I ever did. It was great. But did you have musical knowledge before?

You had musical knowledge. Yeah, I'm a classical train pianist, yeah. Yeah, sure. Yeah, yeah. It wasn't hard. It took me two hours, yeah, sure. Let me talk to you about this. Are you learning from scratch?

I'm learning from scratch. So you didn't play as a kid? No. I want to know something. Actually, do you know what? I had a few guitar lessons as a kid and I was pretty much told by the guitar teacher not to bother because I was so bad. Those teachers are great, aren't they? They're like, oh, maybe this isn't for you.

And I thought, oh, I have one of those. I put my hands on the keyboard and she went, look at your stubby little fingers. That's so bad. I used to be a piano teacher. I think that's really bad that they did that. Yep. Because you get these little five-year-old freaks. You see them.

You don't tell them. Yeah, well, they freak. They're freaks, though. Why they're freaky? Because they're playing songs that I can't play. Oh, I see. You know me? But they, it doesn't matter how big your hands are.

It's about your heart. 100% heart and not hands. Yeah, well, if it was based on heart, you'd still be fucked, wouldn't you? Because you've got nothing left. I don't like this way this went. Anyway, it was your anecdote. I asked you a polite, inquisitive question.

Oh, God, sorry. Turned on me. I did, I turned on you because it was such an open goal. I want to know about the F chord. What would you mean? Well, I just want to talk. about the F chord. F, why does it have to be?

A, C, F. F on a guitar. Yeah. It's too hard. Let's get rid of it. Let's find something else. But they were all the same, aren't they? What, what do you mean?

Oh, you mean a transition from one to another? I just can't. My hands are like, nah, that's not that course off you. Oh, do you mean the block chord? Do you mean, what you put your finger flat? I'm not even talking about block chords. I'm just talking about, I'm not even on, don't start,

I'm not even on the block chords. So look at my hand, so if this is the guitar and it's like that one, do you mean that one? Yes. I'd love to get to the point where I could even consider the block chords. Are you going to become a musical stand-up? Of course you can. No, don't do that.

Don't go to that rabbit hole. So I was doing a show. I won't say what show it was. I was filming a sitcom, popular sitcom, and I was having a chat with someone, and we both are stand-ups, and he doesn't act, that's a bit like not stand-up, but it's technically stand-up.

And we're talking about how, like, and then someone else in the cast, who's also free, she goes, she goes, oh, God, you guys don't like music comedy oh my god with that no exception every single musical comedian I know is like it stinks

they all stink they all stink they hate that genre she just said that to your face did you have any idea I'd gig with her I'd gig with her wow and I said well she kept going on it and then I went what about me and she went oh no not oh yeah no not you

so was her recovery did it reveal that she'd fucked up or she just was no she fucked she'd and then she'd sat down with her so she'd sat at a tape we were on set and then she'd sat down with us to have lunch with us. And then she'd said this. And then I was like, that's me.

That's my, you're talking about my life. Yeah. And then she, you can't go. You can't, so she had to sit down and continue the conversation we were having about how hard it is to be like some of the problems about doing your mar acts or whatever. And she had to sit there. And it was one of the worst lunches that ever. Oh my God.

And if you're trying to find out, if you can hear this and trying to figure out what show, I was cut from that show. So you never even know which day that would be. But yeah. But there's so much bad. Stand-up comics, there's way more bads. I mean, the thing is, because there's fewer musical comics out there. So what's the snobbery against them?

If I, like, tell a joke. Yeah, or like, if you do it rhythmically aloud, you can't hear that you're dying. Well, if you're like doing funny lyrics to, I don't know. If you're rhyming toast with ghost and you're going to get, that's a real song though, isn't it, that I just referred to, toasting ghost? Is it? You're talking about that dog outside called toast. No, there's a song with that lyric in it, a famous big song. And he sings if you rhyme toast with ghost?

Yeah, and they're not even a musical comedian. Wow, it's catchy that one. Toast with a ghost. Anyway, what I'm saying is, making words rhyme. Is one of the reasons why people go, well, I mean, we can all do that. Right. But can we? Can we?

Also, you don't sing the whole way through. You talk a lot. No, so it is standoff about music. Yeah. So it's like, it's more like a... Like Bill Bailey sort of vibes. Kind of, yeah. You're basically standing in front of a musical instrument.

I mean, it's visually hilarious right from the get-go because it's fucking huge. Yeah, it's big, isn't it? It's almost like, too big. It's too big for what I do. You know what I mean? You could do it with the Cascio, but David O'Donautil's done that, so you need.

You could do it with the ground. You've gone, you're literally on stage with the wardrobe. It's the match. It's all right. That's the three ensemble, that I'm energize o'clock. It's all overmns. The form of standard and mini,

Canada Life. Insurance, investments, advice. We should talk about your photos. Oh, goodness. I picked these really late last night. I kind of remember what I did. You're already winning by not coming in with 4,000, which lately has become a bit of a pattern with some of that guess.

Four photo, four, five photos? It's too hard, isn't it? Yeah. You know what's so weird about this? That's such a private photo, and it's so odd to be showing you the photo and then also talking about it. That's quite strange. Do you people get that?

I guess so, yeah. I guess me, my mum, my dad and my uncle who's in that picture, but the only people that know about that photo, and it feels odd to just like... To share it? Yeah, yeah. Well, that is sort of interesting, isn't it? Because nowadays we live in an age where everybody shares everything.

Yeah, right. To still have any privacy at all, which you've now thrown in the baby. You've now compromising. I'll do anything. Look at your face. What are you drinking a hot chocolate? No, a tea. So I'm having that's the...

Do you like a man boy? Am I? Would you like a grown-up man in the body of a boy? Well, I think it's because I didn't like tea when I was younger, but I would go over and have tea at their place and I would love tea. But I think it's because... Do you know what I mean? Like it, I thought that tea was different at people's houses, but it is basically the same.

But did you feel quite grown up having it in his house? Yeah, you can see me popping the finger out there. Look at that little fingers coming out. And that looks like... Oh, look at you. Is that like proper china? Tea does taste better. Yeah.

So my uncle and aunt, they live in Chichester. They don't have that many visitors at the time. And we would... They would have a few, but when they came, they made sure they got the good china out. And then we'd have tea and biscuits and we'd watch the prince. A happy prince. You know the happy prince? No, what's a happy prince?

Really sad story I don't know It's really sad It's like a stock motion animation car Oh you know the book Is it the French book But he worked on the animation of the Oh it's so beautiful

Yeah he works on the animation of the film So we would go and we would watch That film It's really sad Yeah And who was this uncle? He's he's passed on now Uncle Bill He gave me a Honda Jazz when he died

Oh my goodness Thank you so much Uncle Bill What is that? I can do Reading That's not a motorbike old 80s car isn't it? No, it's a, it's an old it's an old Honda, it's like an old

person's car. Oh, isn't that old person's car? Yeah, yeah. So he was a special person in your life. Yeah, yeah. He was, I've got very few relatives actually on my, my dad's side. Because the, I don't know if my dad doesn't really have a, doesn't really do family stuff, but there are a few family we have. I met your dad, didn't I? You did be my dad?

In Foxton? Yeah, my dad drove. So did you know why my dad was there? So I didn't want to say at the time, I had, that week had the, had the, biggest, well, the two weeks, I was having an actual breakdown. And then I got shingles, as a result from the stress, I got shingles all over my body. And it meant I couldn't

sit on a, I couldn't sit on a train or anything. So my dad was like, I'll give you a lift to, so my dad was giving me a lift to gigs for that, for that week. You had such a great gig as well. It was a nice one, yeah, it was a nice gig. Given that you were going through all that? Yeah, I had a proper full-on breakdown that week. Yeah. Oh, did you?

I mean, I honestly had no idea. Well, no, I was very careful to keep it under wraps. Well, you kept it really under wraps. I didn't, my dad doesn't know about the breakdown. I just said I had shingles and he said, okay, I'll do that. But the shingles was a result of the stress of those two weeks. Because it was after Edinburgh.

It was after, because it weren't related stress. Yeah, it was at work and personal. Like, you know when you have like really bad things happen in the year and then it's like you can handle it if it's like one every two months? Yeah, but when it comes together. All the chickens came home to roost in like a week. And I was like, ah, no.

I think I don't know if I'll get out of this one. Well, how great that your dad. Yes, no. He was nice, wasn't he? He's just sort of a... Yeah, he looked like, he looked bemused at our career choices. He's seen me gig twice. Right.

Yeah, do you know what? I remember you saying that as you're like, oh, I hope my dad doesn't watch. Well, it's the thing, because you have to... Because they do support my comedy, but they're not really too interested. Yeah, they're sort of like, I think for them it's like you either work in an office or you don't have a job. So they don't, you know, they don't really... I mean, they're not doing that. What are their jobs? What do they do?

My dad worked for, he worked for, like, lipped and tea. Right. Do you know what I mean? He's just in an office. Yep. He doesn't, like, I think unless you're behind a desk or at a computer, they're just like, I think he doesn't, I don't think he knows where I get money from. Do you know what I mean? He's always trying to push money on me.

He's always like, do you need, but it's like almost like an insulting amount of, do you want 30 pounds? Wow. I don't need that. Just take him. Just take him happy. Take the 30 pounds up. Yeah. Yeah.

Yeah. What sort of, who is this little boy in this photograph? What sort of kid were you? Um, the quiet. Really? Very quiet. Yeah. I went to school and no one knew I was there.

What do you mean? I've been to reunions and people are like, I've had people like gips come up to me and being like, can I get your Twitter? And I'm like, I went to school with you. Yeah. It's happened twice before. One time it happened. And I didn't recognize you. And I was like, no.

And then I said, no, because you, maybe you were best friends with, um, you're Harriet and Rob. I mean, that is true. I was best of Harry, but I can't actually. That's odd because you, I didn't. didn't go to school with you. And that's right through primary and secondary. That was just your sort of nature through school. Yeah, just very quiet.

Very quiet. You must have had like some pals that you hung out with. Oh yeah, but we just, we just kept to ourselves, you know. And what was your thing? What were you into? Piano. So music was early for you? Music, just like sort of playing the piano.

How did it come to you music? Forced by Asian parents, yes. Really? You must have taken to your mom. I can tell you guys and have Asian parents. No, because that's why we're shit. Yeah. If you were, if your mum or down,

We're Asian. Oh, we'd all be playing something. You would be doing this. Wasn't there a famous quote where Dudley Moore said to, no, Peter Cook said to Dudley Moore about his, he's an incredible pianist and it was like, I wish I'd had parents that had forced me to play the piano when I was a child. It's like, how dare you reduce such extraordinary gifted talent?

Yeah, I know. So you're just so on the recipient of force. It is a lot, because I'm a very lazy person. I probably wouldn't have got, like, by the end, I was like a classically trained pianist. If I didn't have. You must have had a lot of skill and desire, because you can only take a horse to water so far. Yeah, but my mum may be practice every day.

How did she make you, though? She said you have to do an hour to two hours every day. Or I'll hit you with a spoon. Fuck me. This is what gets me down about parenting. I'm going to get a spoon out. When people tell me, you've got to make them do things. I'm like, how do you do it?

Wait, it's physical. Yeah, my mum hit me with a spoon. She hit me with a big wooden spoon. Okay, that is a bit much. That's quite a lot. I mean I bought us up at dinner once You know when you're

Yeah Did you? Did she say? She was having a dinner party And then I had to have dinner With my mum and dad And I was like A bit grumpy about it

And then she was really They were embarrassing me with stories And then I was like Well remember that one story About you time you hit me in her hand With a wooden spoon She was like That was like

She wasn't even like That was bad She just went I was only a few times So she had quite a control over you to a certain. Yeah, I would even, if I went to a friend's house for a sleepover, I would either have to do twice as much the next day or the day before, or if they had a, if they had a piano for

some reason at their house, I would do, so it happened a few times, but, you'd be expected to someone, someone's, I'll go to someone's house to have a sleepover, and if they were learning the piano, I would do on, if I keyboard or something, I would do that. That's too much. Wow. How did you feel? I mean, she would ring the parent. up but then but I think the parent get involved with the other should we ring the parent she was saying oh Hugh is staying over I'd lie yes he's done it yeah well that is often that was double like you can yeah you didn't just do 10 minutes if you want and why music why did they get on that that vibe well I think it's like I think they wanted me to because I'm I'm I'm thick as pig shit

this is so not even true I am thick as pig shit this is a narrative you've taken but it might not I failed all my exams to a point where it was like embarrassed. Like the school had to be like, you have to work. And I was like, oh, I'm working. This is my best. I'm working. Like, I'm working so hard. Do you think you're just academia because you're clearly not thick.

And you're very creative. And I don't, I don't think. You can't be a classic like top penis. You can't be a class. You can't be classically trained penis. And also I think stand-up comedy, I mean, there are some thick ones out there. But predominantly, most stand-up comedians, you've got me quick. Yeah.

You've got me on your feet. Not the way I do it. Not the shop. I sort of, the way I do, the way I have to be quick on stage, I just sort of, if someone heckles me, I just look at them and go, I just go, no. I just know, no, no, I'm not. And you, and you, but you must have demonstrated a lot of talent, hence they, like, pushed and pushed and pushed you. I don't, I actually don't think I'm that talented at the, I think it is. So you now we've concluded that you were thick and you're not talented.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. No, I'm not participating in this person. It's flattering. Right, let's go to your next photo, which is you with a moustache. Yeah, that's me. So this, I want to take this. And who's that with you? That's my friend Emiliano.

Guess how old I am in this picture? 10, 11? I mean, you're a baby. That's not a real moustache, though, is it? It's 40, I'm 14 in that picture. Is that a real moustache? Is that real facial hair? No, I've drawn.

I've drawn that on for a party. But you, okay. Yeah, you both look quite little. You both look really young. Yeah, but we were both very young looking, so that's why we were friends, because, but if you think about a four, like I'm actually 14 in that picture. And I know that because he only came into my school for the second year. So we joined me with 30, so he were definitely 14.

So what you're saying is you're offering it to tell us about how young you looked. Yeah. Right. I was, because I was, I looked like that for such a long time. So how old are you what? Like 15 now? I'm 32 now. But I think I was, I think when I say I was like a.

at school, people don't believe me. No, because you're really tall. Yeah, because I'm really tall now, but I was a proper front. Late bloomer? Yeah. So did it impact on your life looking young for your age? Yeah. I want to know this because one of my boys is, you bless him, he's tiny.

Do you think it worked at his advantage? I mean, have you watched that Michael J. Fox documentary? No, I haven't. Oh my God, it's so good. It's so good. And he looked really young. And then he was like, got into drama. And there's all these fantastic pictures of him.

Actually, he's 17, but he looks 14. all these girls towering over him but he's had that adorable face and he just, he cashed in on it and then he became an actor and he started getting parts like he was getting parts for characters that were more. Well prior to that he was playing people that were like

anyway what I'm saying is if you go into the performing arts it works to your advantage looking longer than you are yeah was you already doing a bit of work in the room? No. No. No, no, but you didn't speak. No one knew there. No, no, very quiet. I think I rather thought it was a Japanese exchange student.

So who were you? That's a persona. You could have lent into that. What? Well, going more Japanese on stage. We've all got to have a bit of a character when you're going, yeah. I mean, the moustache may be cut back. I drew it on. I mean, what was it?

So where were you at? Was this a party? I was at a party. And you can actually see, if you zoom out a bit, you can see the scale of a normal child next to me. Can you see there's like, someone's... But that child could be really far away. I mean, I don't know how close that child is. But I see what you mean.

Yeah. You can see, I just wanted to bring that in because I was like, I went through... This was... I just went through some photos. I was like, oh, God, I look really young. Is this your best mate? Was he your best mate? Yeah, we still, we hung out recently.

Oh, really? Yeah, we did. So you're 14 there. And at 14, you know, I remember being around that age and I sort of had an idea about performance. I didn't know exactly what I was sort of thinking, acting, I don't know, but I hadn't really, like I didn't know what I wanted to do, but I kind of had it in my mind that there'd be some sort of performance going on.

Did you, was that something that you were even vaguely interested in then? I think I just create it. I didn't know it would be performance. Like I liked drawing a lot. Right. I was drawing a lot this weekend. I drew and then I... So you still do art, make art?

Yeah, well, we, me and my friends were trying. We're trying. We used to... We do, like, art projects together. And these are old schoolmates that you do this with? Yeah, well, they're from uni. A lot of them. One of them was my current, is my current flatmate.

Right. And then we were visiting someone who went to uni with. Where did you go to uni, did you say? Aberdeen. How big's a circuit in Aberdeen? Two gigs? Well, I thought the gigs were like Five people in a pub

Yeah, no, well I didn't have any friends That's why I'm called Hugh You've got loads of mates You just said No, no, but I didn't invite them to the gigs Ah Like I, because I was like That's why my name is Huge Davies

Because I changed it So that no one would know I was, so in case I thought when you do comedy You go to like The gig and it's like Your name is outside the venue You know, it's like, you know

Like at the Apollo or whatever I thought that They just put you on posters or something to know. They're doing in some places. In some places they do, but not the gigs I'm doing in Aberdeen. Not the pubs.

Not the pubs I'm playing. Did you go to Aberdeen and think I'm going to do comedy up there or you just discovered it up there? No. I went because that was the only place that would take me. My poor exam results. How did you get on stage? Because it doesn't seem to be any, like usually there's some sort of impetus or like

a catalyst that puts you up there. But it sounds... I do love comedy. I would go to the Edinburgh Thuring before I was a comedian. So I would go there. Right. My friend Emiliano, actually, he was at Edinburgh University, and I would stay on his couch and we would, for the August,

and we would go and watch free shows all day. Oh, fantastic. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So I, I loved comedy. And was there a little seed of? Yeah, when I was doing it, I was like, I think I could. I think I could, because then I was like, I was watching a lot of, I was quite analytical.

You're watching a lot of shit. Yeah, I was watching a lot of shit and being like, yeah. I know that thing. Well, fuck me, I could do better. Yeah, yeah. Especially if you're on the free fringe, it's like, Jesus. How long is an hour long, mate. All the clocks are broken.

Yeah. Yeah. I think I was just a bit like, yeah, I think I could, I think I could do it. Really? And then you just sort of did it privately, like a dirty secret. Yeah. And also, because I was doing the gigs and a lot of, they would get their friends to come watch. And their friends would be like, you were great.

And I was like, you're a shit. That's just not healthy. You can't be telling your friend that they're good. One of the first kids ever did, the guy said that I was good. And he was really bad. And I said that he was good back. And I asked how long of his. doing it. You said I'd be doing it 13 years.

What? I was like, whoa. Did I see you at one of your first ever early gigs? What was that one? I think you came to BBC. Of the Creek, wasn't it? BBC New Comedy Awards. Yes, that's when we met. That was a while back. You were really nice to me. Was I? Yeah, you were very nice to me. It would be very nice. Someone tweeted me the other day about me not being nice.

I was like, when wasn't I nice? You're like, you slag? You slag? How dare you? I don't know. You shouldn't ever read these things. Most of the things people say are quite nice. someone put something a bit shitty and said that they saw me being a bit crabby with someone. I was like, what? Where, when? I'm nice. Fuck you.

I'm nice. Where do you live? Really nice. I'm going to ruin your day. I was nice. Was I hosting it? You were hosting it and yeah, you were really nice to me. You said Matt was unique and that's probably all I cared about at that point.

Right. Well, yeah, but you do need, you need to stand out, don't you when you're in New Act competition? Yeah. And also those new act competitions are like, it's not even a gig. It's like an audition. And so whatever you're doing, it kind of doesn't even feel like what you do when you actually go out to work. No. So, you know.

It's like how you drive on your driving test isn't it going to be. Once you get your license, you're like, d-d-d-d-d-d-d-d-d-d-d-d-ee. Oh, for sure. For sure, goodbye. You're driving with your feet. Yeah. Right, let's look at the next photo. What have we got?

This is like a kind of frat boys' shot. Yeah. So that's a million-a-o-o-again. Why is it in Tony photos? A million-a-mil-a-old. He's a key person in your life. Wait a second. What frat photo?

This is like a Beastie Boys, like album cover. Yeah, it is a bit. So that was, I don't know if I can say this either. I'll say it anyway. So we were, we'd gone, we said that for a trip. We were going around Brussels. We were going around the Netherlands. So we were trying to, a very nice man on a dock,

we basically misbooked our hostel and we were trying to find a new place to book. And then a very helpful guy at the dock said that he knew a place. he sawed us out basically and then he was like would you like to join me for a fun time down at the pier so we were there having a fun time down at the pier I'm already what?

He was he was he wanted to share a spliff with us but he did so he did and then I was having like he left and then I started to get into my head that this guy wanted to kill us and then from then I just started to tank so this is my friends having a great time

at the bus stop you shouldn't take drugs you and then that's me having the worst time ever There's lots of other photos. They're having a great time. But I was tanking so hard. Oh, that's horrible. I was like, in this photo, I was like kind of asking to call my mum and dad.

Oh, no. To tell them that I was going to die. Oh, my God. It was like, horrible. They were used to let me call my mum and dad. I was like adamant. They definitely don't look like they're getting the vibe. There's not a lot of empathy going to.

Yeah. Yeah. Everyone was laughed in my face. And I was like fully convinced we were going to die. How long did that? Because it can last a long time when you say. I don't remember the day. That woman in the background looks like she should.

Yeah, yeah, she's potted me. She's like, call that guy's mom and dad. On that, so we got on the bus, I threw up on an old couple on the bus in front of me. I don't remember this. This is what I've been told. And this is because you smoke. Do you know what you smoke? No.

You're like stupidly strong week. Everyone else said to me it was normal. I was convinced it was a different something. He'd given us something crazy. He spiked you. Yeah, but everyone reacts differently. It can probably just skunk as me. And then when you're a teenager and then you smoke something.

You're like, I'm really stunned. and then so it goes really because it was banana leaves yeah that's horrible so it was a bit of that it was maybe a bit of that but yeah it was like one of the most embarrassed I cried oh mate they they were this footage I'd be crying I don't want to think there's footage they filmed you what assholes yeah I know but you'll make cry so you get a camera out yeah cause you do when you're 18 when you're 18 yes why can't people just be vulnerable and support each other they're boy they're like are you mad can you imagine I can't bear the I can't bear the cruelty of teenagers.

I can't bear it. Yeah. Because I've got teenage kids now and I can see that they're in the... It's a fucking horrible world. But it's even crueler now because of the old smartphone. Yes, they can't put it up as a real. So what did they film you on? They got out an old cine camera and filmed you on a week.

Yeah, we had a camera, yeah. We had a camera. And they were just saving it for you having... Wait for some trauma and film it. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. If you're not doing that, they're all sort of jizzing in a cup and thrown at each other, are they?

Oh, Jesus Christ. You've got to... Well, sorry about the sort of harsh realities of what happened to your stuff. I don't. It's all this to look forward to. I just can't bear it. And also, to be fair, like, it's kind of like a right passage, isn't it? Just to be a complete asshole to your mate.

And then you laugh about it. And we're still mates now. Yeah, still good friends now. Yeah. But I think that was having such a bad time in that photo. Like, I don't remember that photo being taken. I was just kind of different planet. I was like, we look great.

Oh, thank you. You look fantastic. You just look cool and you look like your mates are a couple of pricks and you're looking at the camera to say look at these dicks. Yeah. I think I'm doing quite well. There's another, I think there's another photo of me like almost you can see that I'm crying. Oh, you. Fucking out.

There's such a fine line between call and crying. This just wouldn't happen. Like, we're like, if there was a group of girls and we'd all gone out 18, someone has a whitey and she starts having a panic attack, what you wouldn't get is, we wouldn't get is. Yeah, for sure. Oh my God. Yeah. Let's call you mum and dad.

I'll call you, mum. Oh, let's go over, man. Your son's dying. His son's dying? He says he's dying. And they'd be like, he isn't dying as he practices piano? Yeah. Well, yeah, that was probably one of the, actually, you know what?

That trip was one of the first times I probably didn't have to practice the piano. Because you were 18? Because I was 18 and I was in, I was in a Belgium. You can't hit a boy with a spoon from over the channel. Yeah. She'll put a spoon in my friends. She'd be like, that's for you. If you could just...

Did she... Because your mum sounds quite strict. my mom was quite strict. Did you find that when you got to 18 and your mom went, well, because my mom did this thing where I was like, you can't do this, you can't do this,

you can't do this, can't do this. And I went, my 18th birthday went, well, you can just do whatever you want now. And I was like, these are really just very, like yesterday,

I couldn't do anything. And now I can just go, and then I bought a ticket to go interrailing around your, do you know what I was like, that's a very big leap. I couldn't go to the cinema on my own, but now I'm just getting a train. Really, actually that is 18 birthday.

Yeah, it was that extreme. That extreme. It's quite wild. Asian parents, well, Asian mothers, I know aren't like that. Like, they cling on. Oh, they cling on. Because you're meant to stay in that household for a long time.

Like, you don't, when you're, I think when you're Asian, you don't really, like, you're kind of still a family. You're meant to, you're there to look after your parents, kind of a thing. Right. You're meant to be very present.

It's not like, you go. They're where it is here. People go like, oh, I'm kind of sick of you. Get out. Yeah. But here, in Asia, it's like, you're like, oh, no, you've, we gave, food so will you give us food? Yeah, yeah.

It seems reasonable. But you know what? I suppose like, you know, we live in the, like, especially when you leave home and then if you decide you want to start a family or whatever, that's when you're like, do know what, it would be quite handy if I was closer to my parents, if there was more of a community. I don't think our community. I feel like very well, like just dumping old people in like homes and charging the over it

as a system is not working. It's not working for anyone. No. I'm looking forward to a home though Are you? Yeah No one will know you're there here I think

It'll be like Who's like The Japanese exchange He hasn't spoken since he arrived Why is there a picture Of a Bats andutsquash With an appi

So this is Lloyd my son This is Lloyd my son I saw It's so sad that Lloyd Yeah Lloyd didn't make it Yeah well The whole thing was in lockdown I went mental.

I basically... I bought a butternut squash from the shop and then I saw it and then I was like, that's big. It was huge. It was huge. This button to score. You know, when you see a vegetable in the basket, you're like, that's like, that's crazy how big that is. I'd get gallons of soup out of that.

Yeah, and I was like, I'm going to make soup out of this. Go to put a face on it, put a nappy on it. I was like, that's funny. And then I couldn't cut it. I couldn't cut up Lloyd. Because I've made Lloyd, I made a joke of it. and then it was like my only friend. So there was a period why I didn't speak to anyone for like a long time.

But you did speak to Lloyd? Yeah, I did. So Lloyd was something I could talk to. I put the Lloyd in a pram. I would push the pram around. And then come to a point where Lloyd was starting to deteriorate. His health was his head started to cave in from, because he was of squash. Yeah, let's not forget that.

Sorry, he's a squash. He's a squash. He's a squash. When did you put the nappy on Lloyd? At the beginning. Day one. Day one. Oh, so at this point, he's.

So your mental health was definitely on thin ice. Yeah. I thought about pickling Lloyd, but then I was like, I don't know. I think he's too far gone. Yeah, yes, too. Because you can, um, luckily the, you know what? It wouldn't have been so far because a squash lasts so long. Yeah.

Compared to other vegetables. Yeah, so you must have had. Lloyd was about four months. Lloyd was four months. Is that how long a squash will last? Yeah. Well, it's like a Tamagocchi in a way, isn't it? It's like a Tamagocchi.

Yeah, I know, because you're trying to keep a couple of life right now. Every day. Every day. Every day, if you just get to scorches? Is your son real? Is your child? I don't need to get Tamagotchi. But you don't need to get Tamagotchi.

You just get them a squash and stick it in a nappy and draw a face on it. Yeah, there is that. Yeah, actually I could do that because also once it's in a nappy, it's not, you can just leave it there. It doesn't, you don't need to change it's nappy. Yeah. You need to feed it. You don't need to play some weird game, bat and ball game with it,

which I don't actually understand. So you're expected to do this while they're at school? I have to keep the Tamagocchi's life. One of them died yesterday. Oh my God. I'm so glad I wasn't in the house when that happened. Because I'd fed it and played with it. And I also gave a little tickle.

Why did it die then? I don't know. I hate those fucking living toys. I tell you what's like toys that you've got to keep alive. My daughter went through a furbee face. And it just used to wake up in the middle of the night like a fucking gremlin. She'd wake up going, Molly! This thing would wake up.

Hello, with those massive eyes. We couldn't work it at all. They are horrible. They are like gremlins. But when the gremlin before it turns into a gremlin. I thought that's what it was when I was when I was a kid. They're awful and we couldn't work it out because we're not very technical. I know it would be a surprise to you to discover that me and Ben are not very...

Absolute shock. I think it's creepy when babies have baby babies. Do you know what I mean? Like the dolls. Yes, a baby holding a baby is fucked. Yeah, like my two-year-old knees. She's slinging it about like the Hulk. She's eating biscuits off the top shelf.

She's creepy baby. Why is that adult got a baby doll? That's annoying. What? You're a muffler. You don't hear it? Oh, I don't even notice it. I usually drown it out with the radio.

How's this? Oh, yeah, way better. Save on insurance by switching to Bel Air Direct and use the money to fix your car. Bell Air Direct, insurance, simplified. Conditions apply. Now streaming on Paramount Plus. It's the epic return of Mayor of Kingstown.

You haven't had another traumatic experience. No. Is this one of your paintings behind it?

So my friend, this is actually quite recent. I had a breakup and I was not feeling great. My friend invited me to paint her house. We couldn't find the rollers to paint that... This is so typical that you'd... She was like, it'd be fun to paint my house. Like, it'd be good to take your mind off things. We couldn't find the rollers to do the thing.

So we got a Bob Ross on. We did a Bob Ross on the wall. And we painted... And then her fiancé came home was like, what have you done? We're just painting... We just did loads of paintings on... It's very beautiful.

I actually quite like it. Yeah, I really like it too. But if she painted over it now. Probably, I imagine. Yeah, I imagine he's. Is this the kind of stuff you do, like landscapes and stuff? I do whatever, so we normally get a challenge. So my friend will set the challenge and we do whatever the challenge is.

Like, for example. For example, like we're doing, like, if we're doing like a figure, like you have to do, right, you have to do a figure or you have to do something abstract or we're doing like shapes. Or we do a thing sometimes if you're like, you don't take your pen off the paper. You've got to make an image by just doing that. Just like a little, he's really. That sounds so lovely that you've got a friendship group.

where you hang out when you do creative artistic projects. I did tour sport with Joe Lyset and he was getting to really into art at the time. And he's always doing loads of it now. Yes, he is. He was always talking about how he was really. I slightly envy that kind of scene that kind of, like just making art for fun with friends.

I think that sounds delightful. But it's mad because Joe was just doing it for fun privately. And then. Well, art club. Is that where it took off for him? Well, I think so. Then he just was like, oh, people really like it. And then he's just galleries now.

His mum's an artist. Yeah. And she's really good. Yeah. She's really good. I mean, I thought, art club was one of the, I mean, you had a squash and I had art club,

but that was one of the things that helped me. It was one of my favourite TV programs. Yeah. And I did do a bit of drawing and it did help, you know, but I have not since. And I think it's a lovely thing. Yeah. It's nice to draw.

It's nice to draw. If you can draw. If you can draw. My partner, she started doing arts and she does it alone. And every now, like she tries to once a week, have an art club with a friend of hers who can't always do it. What kind of art do they make? Well, she's at that point where, like anything,

she's experimenting with resin, with chalk, with watercolours, with acrylic, with, you know, with everything. And she's really enjoying it. But I think what I love about what you do is that you meet and then someone sets a challenge and you don't, the idea is that you don't overthink it, that you just go ahead and do it. And I think that's kind of what Chloe needs.

We don't really, it's the point of it. It's gone now. We don't, it's not like we have the, we just put them in a file. And it's like it's for the, for the pleasure of the, yeah. It's like you do it. It's like, I saw this video, this, this, um, the Buddhist monks and they create, they get these colored rice. And they, they, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's not the, it's not the, it's not the, it's not the, it's not the, it's not the, it's not the, it's not the, it's not the, it's not the, it's not the, it's a journey. Yeah, but that does make it because our whole programming is end gaining.

Yeah, right, yeah, sure. And to be in the, like, the outcome is the pleasure of the moment. But isn't that what stand-up is? Stand-up is ephemeral, isn't it? Unless you've filmed it. Clip it up. Clip that. Reel it.

I'm thinking right now this could be a reel. I'm doing it on my art and I'm going, this is like good. Oh, isn't that weird that that's what is. We're not filming this. So you have a special that's, ow. Yeah, you can see the car park, which is my first show, and that's on YouTube. That was filmed as a special. And that's on YouTube.

Is it a pay what you want? Or is it? It's free. Free. Charge. No charge. No charge. Just jokes in a row on YouTube.

That's a good name for a show. That is a joke in a row. Chokes in a row. Because you were sticking up, not that long ago, he was sticking up clips, and they were, it was hilarious. It was really, really, really, really funny. And I would really encourage people to check it out. And then when your tour starts, you will announce it, I suppose, on your socials.

At some point, yeah, after all. Yeah, my social is huge Davies. Huge Davies, check him out. Thank you for coming and sharing. That's for having me, man. This has been really fun. Yeah, that's been really fun. I forgot what we were doing.

Right, should we do another photo? Ben's really not going to appreciate this. You see, I was hoping there's two of Ben, and then I found that one. because the other one was me pulling a pub out of his nose and I thought that's some marriage up. I mean a pub. He has this recurring little sick black hair that grows out of the top of his nose.

Right. And it's my job as is... To pull it out. To pull it out. Pull it out. Can't it just shave it? No, because that doesn't get it out from the route. You've got to take it right out when it gets going

and I've got a bit of a nail and it's like... How long does it take to grow back? A couple of months. It comes back in the end. Yeah. Yeah, it's weird the things you do for your partner. I've got a black head in her ear that she likes me to like squeeze. Yeah, that's, that is intimacy.

But what I look about that picture of me plucking Ben's nose pub is that he is giving direct eye contact to the camera as if to say, Jesus Christ, I've been doing this for a very long time. I've been stuck with this woman. Oh, that is a lovely picture. And where are you? Are you in dancing?

I think we are at the Witterings. I think that's when we went away to the Witterings for a weekend for my birthday with a few friends. I love the Witterings. Yeah, I do too. And we're better to pull a pub out of your husband's nose. Then West Whittering Beach. But yes, I often think when I see a married person or a person in a long-term relationship with a hairy nose or excessive blackheads, why have you not got your life partner onto that?

Yeah, I mean, I like when Chloe's driving and the light is, behind and you can really catch the beard hairs there you can see them the whiskers and because she's blonde her hair's blonde sometimes she'll miss the there's some real proper you know goatees yeah you know like colonel sanders is coming it's your job it to get those bad boys out yeah yeah i mean she said please don't do it while i'm driving no fair um but i notice it yeah exactly that would be love that's what love is that is love that is love that's love that's love Yeah. And also love is also the other picture of Ben that I sent you, which is, um, well, how would you describe it? Well, this is my favourite picture. So as we know, Ben is a very good

bass player and he loves playing the bass. And we also know that there is a t-shirt available, a Kerry Goddlyman t-shirt available to buy. Which Joel, bought me for Christmas. Which Joel, our lovely producer, purchased for me. I bought it for my birthday. which was I don't know how many pictures there are of you one two three well there's certainly four at least four pictures I think there might be more I reckon there's one under the base there

which you got for your birthday and I made Ben wear it you made Ben wear it and now he's wearing a t-shirt of his wife whilst playing the bass guitar all the things he loves

all the things he loves he's wearing it oh all the things I like that you've had to tell him that you love both of those things. Yeah, all your favourite things there, babe. So you can buy this T-shirt of Kerry Goddavit, you can also buy a cardboard cut out of me.

Yeah, I've got it. This is when I tell you. No one, absolutely nobody has ever bought it. I put it in my potting shed. I put it in my potting shed. You look, you preside over what? Can you imagine? Just my creepy head sticking out the top of your potting shed. Your kids are going,

why is Jen Bristair always in our garden? Yeah, I mean, it's amazing that they thought that that was going to sell. Well, one did. One did. And I made Ben wearing it. And he's worn it at one time.

And I said, let me take a picture of you. And he posed like that. Do you think you'll ever wear it again? No. No. Do you think you'll wear it? No. Not even in bed.

Where would I wear it? Where would I wear that without looking like I'm having a breakdown? In bed. You can wear that to my 50th. That's a year away. Is that all I've got to look forward to? That I'm not going to. Where is I talk about pre-planning?

Oh, Jen's having a party in 12 months and I know what I'm wearing. For anyone that's, you can, if you don't know what we're talking about, that photograph will be on our Instagram account, our Memory Lane podcast.
