Hello, I'm Rob Beckett. And I'm Josh Whitickham. Welcome to Parents in Hell, the show in which Josh and I discuss what it's really like to be a parent, which I would say can be a little tricky. So, to make ourselves, and hopefully you, feel better about the trials and tribulations of modern-day parenting, each week, we'll be chatting to a famous parent about how they're coping. Or hopefully how they're not coping. And we'll also be hearing from you, the listener, with your tips, advice, and of course, tales of parenting woe. Because let's be honest, there are plenty of times where none of us know what we're doing. Hello, you're listening to Parenting Hell with...

Bloody, can you say Rob Beckett? Rob Beckett. And can you say Josh Whitacom? Josh Whitacom. Viola, can you say Rob Beckett? Rob Beckett. How can you say Josh Whitacom? Bena Whitacom.

Good girl. Dublin. Dublin? Yeah. They're Dublin. What up, you sexy, Relatable Buttes. This is our five-year-old daughter Lottie and our two-year-old Violet, absolutely nailing your names.

We're from Wicklow in Ireland. But they did see you in Dublin. Ah, nice. Being a fan of the pod since the early lockdown days when Lottie was a baby and have enjoyed every episode since, except for... I recently turned my wife onto the pod and she's loving it. We also started watching Taskmaster and absolutely died and Rob dressed as a granny power-hosing Alex while monically laughing.

I've got no idea what that is. I think you had to... It was Alex Horn's coming out of a shed. You've got us trying to surprise him the most. So I dressed as an old man and had a jet. as he walked out i just soaked him that's fun it's weird taskmaster because you get normal taskmaster fans and there's quite a intense cult following yeah that um i find that josh tell me the thing of this you know in comedy there's sort of like comedy fans just finish this

okay sorry robin dublin seeing josh at the end of january oh baby keep that he added the oh baby keep up the good work simon simon um some of the cult some of the taskmaster fans are quite They have like sort of spreadsheets about how everyone's done in percentages. There's like a weird little community that talk about like they were successful and 64% of all the tasks. And they all love the sort of James Aecaster, Phil Wang kind of like whimsy comics. And then... I'd say there's a lot, I don't want to stereotype.

Yeah. There's a lot of blue hair flying around. Blue hair. People with blue hair. People a bit, yeah, alternative. And where I'm seeing as a bit mainstreaming comedy, which is fine. So, like,

there was a bit of beef on line where, like, I had quite a high win percentage. So basically, I had, like, at one point, like, the highest,

he's got to the champion of champions. Yeah, so, you should have won it. Well, yeah, some say, some say,

but I had a really hard, but they did, it was so funny because basically, they tagged me on this thing, and I was, I had the highest win percentage of taskmaster for,

before they did about a thousand series. And they were like, they didn't really want me to be the one that was the highest. And they're like, well, that doesn't really count because that episode, And I was like, who's adding this up and putting it in a spreadsheet?

Like, that's an actual job. Little tip. Yeah. It's been to be a laugh. It's been a bit of fun. A little bit of fun. A couple of tasks. Quick chat in the studio.

Go home. Anyway, we have today. This was a bit of a loving for you, on it? I love this guy. I love this man. I love him too, but you've got a connection. Yeah, deep. We both, we train together, we spot each other at the gym, you know.

And also had a festive dance off. He's currently in Strictly, or he's been eliminated since recording. Harry Aitken Tartete or, as he's known, your children, Nitro from Gladiators. One of my favourite people in the world. We're doing Harry's intro, Josh, your man. Oh, sorry, sorry. A man who bleeds charisma. Can we call you Nitro just for a bit of fun?

I feel like it's okay, too. It's my alter ego. I think we should introduce Harry's full name as well. Okay. Can you say it is the question? I think he's going to white man panic here, Harry. Yeah, yeah. It's Harry.

It's Harry Smith. Welcome to the show, Harry Smith. What's happening? Nice to meet you guys. Yeah, Harry Smith in the building. How do you pronounce your surname? Did you not know how to do? it, Josh. Is that what this is now?

Second word. It's the second word. Yeah, it's the aretis. So, um, Riti. Yeah, so I've dumbed it down as best as I can for the English tongue. Have you? Yeah, because actually it's Aite. Aite. Aikin's Airet. Harry Ait. Aikin's Ariti. Aikin's Ariti. You guys can say Aikin's Ariti. I've let the nation.

But what's the actual pronunciation? The actual pronunciation, yeah, my full name, my Garnet name is Harry Leslie Nee, Aikin's Aite. Aite. Aite. Yeah, that's good. I've got a bit of Garnet in me When did your family come over from Garner? So I'm first generation in UK So my dad actually came over

With my two older sisters And then me and my younger sister were born here Oh, cool So do you go back? Yeah, yeah, yeah, my parents are all set up out there They've actually just gone back So they back their full time They are now, they are now

They just went back in March Imagine what it's like in Ghana saying You're not going to believe what my son does for living No, no, no, no, bro, dude I'm the unemployed one we've all had like you know African friends or people of you know certain cultures that pride themselves in education right my parents are those people so my older sister is a deputy headmaster of a high school my second sister is a midwife my youngest sister is a geographer she's a catastrophe analysis

I'm the one that just runs around you does this athletics thing we don't understand it Gone out of immigrants to the UK, they've not come here to the son, becomes a gladiator. You're an athlete, they were like, well, once he gets to the end of athletics, he'll do a sensible job. He's doing what? You're fucking kidding me, that's worse. Now he's dancing. I had to fight so hard with my parents to do sports. With a pugal stick.

No, obviously before the pugil stick times. I had to beg them to come and watch. But when I was 14, I became the fastest fortune of all time in Europe. At that time, I ran 1083 in Sheffield, around the corner from where we were from. gladiators actually, Nike came along, sponsored me, and if I got a bad report from school, I used to get massive boxes from Nike sent, you know, I used to be the, these are called me Nike school. They take the packages and keep them in their room.

If I got a bad report, they were like this athletic stuff, you need to stop. So then I was like, fine, I've got to be better. So then I became national champion. Were they not thinking that you've clocked this mental time? They must be thinking, you're literally a second off the world. record at this stage. You're 14. Yeah, no. The next year I became national champ. And even then I had to push my way to go. It was only once I became the fastest youth in the world when I was double world youth champions and no one else had ever done it. But they were like, okay, my dad said to me,

he said, hey, Harry, look, this thing that you want to do, if you want to do it, take it seriously, because I prefer that you did your studies. Really? Wow. They want you to have a structure. How many kids have you got in their ages? So I've got one daughter, Aubrey Isla. She just turned five. Yeah, she's just a bundle of energy and joy. Do you have a different approach then? Like, you know, your parents, well on the education, quite strict. Do they think you're too soft with her? Or are you a bit more strict and now it's your own kid? I'm, like, really protective of her in one sense. Like, me and my wife, we have different sort of, we align on one aspect in terms of how to raise her. My wife is more emotional. Obviously, look, I'm a big black man raised in a country where, like you just said, you know, I've had to. to fight certain battles, right? So when I leave the house,

you know, most people will turn around to me and say things like, oh, you're very well spoken for a black guy or you're well spoken for someone that's from South London or... That sort of complimentary casual racism stuff. You can't get me out with it and they go, well, I was only saying you spoke well.

Yeah, because I'm not what you expect. You know, when I say my name's Harry, it's like, oh, well, I was expecting like, what, Tyrone or, you know, like... Don't worry, the certain name pays out. Don't worry, you'll injure my son-note. So with me, I'm just like, with the way I raise Aubrey, I'm actually within the house, like, I'm the fun one. I'm the one dancing with her to Beyonce, but then equally I'm also the one to make sure that she says, excuse me, please.

Yeah. Like, she's the most politest girl. And like, you know, when you've got a big dog. Yeah. Everyone looks at what the big dog does more so than the little yappy one in the corner that gets away with everything. Yeah. Yeah. So we're the big dogs. So I make sure that my dog is well trained. the same way that I'm very well trained so that no one can highlight any small thing that we do. So my wife is a little bit softer on her in one sense. I'm a little bit hard on her in another sense. So, you know, that's where we do unite and combine. She seems to be doing quite well.

We're really proud of her. Ark Raiders, a multiplayer extraction adventure video game set in a lethal yet vibrant future Earth.

No, this is the funny thing. I always thought that I'd want my child to appreciate me. selfishly for the amazing athlete that I was and I'm probably going through a bit of an identity crisis now where obviously I'm only known as Nitro really and I'm so thankful. Yeah, it's called Strictly. Yeah.

Because you was an athlete, now you're Nitro and sort of mega famous but now also you're Harry, the sort of like TV personality on Strictly. So it's like you've got three things going on here. Yes, I would have thought that I would have wanted my daughter to have recognised me as the Olympic athlete that very well decorated that got multiple medals for GB. But now that I've dropped that ego, seeing what everything I've done, like Master Chef, for example, strictly gladiators, it's given her so much confidence, like what you guys probably see within your families, how like, obviously it's pretty casual and standard that your dad's on telly. But the Master Chef aspect, you know, she now cooks with me every minute of the day.

If I get out that chopping board, she's with me. She won't eat it, but she'll cook it. Classics of it. And then she'd say, what happened to the presenters? they've changed the presenters and you go we don't need to talk about that

where's the bald guy gone? I like that the thing because of gladiators we watch the chase because of Bradley I'm like oh but the chase is on she's like

oh it's Bradley so she does get attached to the presenters you can get them then to do like a video and blow your kids minds my daughter's got into sewing bee

and I got Sarah Pasco to send her a video and it's like whoa that's Sarah I love that How is that for your door then? Because I did the Gladiator's Celebrity Special And I loved you on it by the way, dude

I was trying to give you as much advice as I could You really helped to be fair Because it's terrifying You can't give advice to a body Do you know what I mean There's only so much you can achieve The thing is I remember I do remember trying to talk to you

In the corridor just before you went out And I was blurbing stuff at you And I could just see your eyes You weren't there No, no You weren't there Oh it's horrible It's so horrible

Because you were just about to go on Jewel You was about, and that is the hardest one. And were you injured at that point, Harry? I was injured, so I was literally trying to give him a cheeky head. So you didn't have to go head to head with Beckett. No, no. But you was lucky you weren't in the gauntlet when I had destroyed all your mates. You beasted it, mate.

Yeah. The beaver. The beaver struck. But what happened to that? I get kids come up to me, right? And I did one episode of it, yeah, and I wasn't on it every week. And I don't have, you know, like, you guys have got your all the information about, you've got your walk on little cards and stuff like that.

Kids come up to me and like, Oh my God, you were the beaver. Gladiators, like, I've got no idea that I'd do anything else. And they're just like, you're the beaver. And I'm like, to a certain generation, I'm the beaver. Also, on top of that, you've got, we have Nitro's Pranks show on every day in my house. No way. Your prank show is like one of my daughter's favourite things in the world.

I've not seen this. What's Nitro's Prank? Oh, it's so good. It's Nitro pranking the other gladiators. And it's great. And so when you go to school pickup, it must be quite weird. Have you ever done it in your outfit? The question, have you ever done it in normal clothes?

Yeah, one of the most awkward things. So my daughter has just started reception. So now I am doing the school drop. And it has been obviously like primetime TV, Saturday nights, strictly, and then gladiators running straight into it. So we are a little bit. Oh my God, it doesn't get bigger than that at the school gates. Strictly gladiators is like,

if you go on my own singer now, you'll never be able to do school pick up every year. And that's it, I'll be done. But you talk about my outfit, one of the funniest things that happened. Because that's the thing, like, you know, we're all dads and dad bods look different in different places, right? I get you trying to relate.

You can't say, this is the problem with my dad bod. You might as well say, you know what it's like having gone I own parents, Robin Josh? As I have with your body. You know what it's like. You know what it's like? I shared a dressing room with you, and it was very different images.

The funny thing is, though, I tell people this all the time. My interaction with Josh is absolutely hilarious when we did the Christmas special together. You know, I'm on holiday. I'm having fun, you know, I'm just learning how to dance. Josh has walked in and he's looking at me, he's sizing me up, mate. I thought I was fucking gladiators.

He's very competitive. Yeah. And then like, he was jiving at me, jiving it, he jabbling this, jabbing that. Next thing, I said, Josh, just so you know, my inside is how you look. I like anime. I like history podcasts. I play chess. I play Pokemon.

I play, I'm like not what I look like by anything. measure. We had an incredible chat about what it was like to do the 100 metres and you'd be on the bus with Usain Bolt and stuff. And so I'm glad that I psyched you out even though he couldn't. That's the main thing. He's quite competitive though, Josh, are he? Harry, he's got a competitive edge. Do you know what? He's got the dog. He's got the dog in him. I see it. I know both of you have because I saw it in you as well as glad. And like something that I've learned through life, like obviously when I'm in a war zone, when I'm on a track, you're going head to head with people. So at the young age of 16, like when I reflected

and I won the world juice, there was this guy from Stoke, Alex Nelson, who should have beat me, he was the fastest, but we're in Morocco, it was baking hot. And I remember looking at him and I sized him up and he came over to me and said, made the best man win. And in that moment, I saw weakness. I sniffed it

and I went for it. So I've learned how to read people. I've been around you two and I'm like, yeah, you guys have got the dog man. I think you have to have a little bit of that if you want to get anywhere in a certain, you know, especially something like comedy because it's so brutal.

You've got to keep... I don't know if it's a dog or just blindly keep going against all evidence. I think it's more, if I stop doing this, I've got nothing else. It's panic and fear.

I've got a panic and fear dog in me. Panic and fear. Did you lose a lot of your teenage years to it? Like, because often with sports people, is running different, say, if we were speaking to Maria Sharapova now, it'd be a weird booking. But like, she was probably,

hitting tennis balls from the age of two and then she was at the Nick Bolte area academy and all that kind of stuff. Is running one of those things where you go, I didn't have the normal childhood because of it? Do you know what? I was quite lucky. And this is where I think sport is amazing for everyone and kids, definitely. So I was quite lucky that when I fell into the sport at the time, so I got chased by a dog, right? And someone saw me run away from this dog. Fuck off, really. Yeah. Like when Kate Moss got seen on a tube station and told you should be a model, you got chased by a dog. I was playing a game with British Bulldog. It was a Labrador, to be fair.

I was playing a game with British Bulldog. And obviously, you know what it's like when you live in a Ghanaian household, right? Yeah. We don't have animals like that. We don't assume, but yeah. Exactly. Not a lot of pets. So, not a lot of pets in that household.

So when I was seeing this dog and it's looking at me, obviously I was like the last one standing playing the game. I've just turned around and sprinted. The dogs obviously thought I wanted to play. Note to self, don't turn around when you want to like run forward. so I fell over, the dogs nithmy, he ran off, but a coach walked by. And he said, go to the track, go see Leslie Alder on a Tuesday at Sutton Arena. So when you've got talent, it's just figuring out what to do with it.

And I was quite lucky that someone gave me the direction of where to go with it, right? So where I've gone with it, the people at the track, they were similar age to me, similar background to me, similar likes. And I was so fortunate that obviously athletics is a sport where there's males and females. you're training but you're still having fun with people you don't realise that you're training so you're working really hard but you're just socialising

I was watching Dragon Ball Z at you know five to six going up to the track and then we'd be talking about the episode that we just watched and then you know we'd then get a little bit older and be watching MTV bass and we'd be talking about you know

that music video that Sean Paul was doing and then we'd be practicing the Willy bounce or practicing how to do certain dance moves and like I really found my friends so most of my best friends now are my mates from then and there's not a lot of barriers to entry is there really because it's not like a sport like rowing where you need space, equipment and

obviously you need the running spikes or whatever, but it's just, it's very tangible, who's quick and who's not? And obviously you can improve. Massively, yeah. And like this is a poor man sport. It's a poor man sport. And this is where I would turn around and say, you know what, if you want to build, this is to all the parents out there, if you want your children to have the opportunity, not to do well in sport, but just to have certain career prospects and transferable skills and be able to be adaptive, it's gymnastics and track and field. If they could be part of the national curriculum, they give you confidence, they give you mates, they give you the opportunity to work alone, but still as a team. And it builds your body in such a fantastic way.

So literally, like my mates that I spent all my time with then, I didn't go on holidays, like lad holidays because my event was, but then equally, I was 17 in China hanging out with a bunch of other 17 year old. So you could imagine what that was from all around the world. So that was actually a bit of fun. And even when I got to 18, I had a double pass stress fracture with my back. So I was in a back brace for a year. Oh, my God. How did you do that?

Running too fast, mate, because obviously, um... You went past Battersea Dog Zone. Couldn't keep up more. Running too fast, because obviously, if you can imagine, I can reach up to 27 miles per hour. Yeah, same. So all of that force. I just don't bang on about it and like doing other stuff.

It's all of those speed tickets that you got in it. All of those speed tickets in London, especially. you're putting those forces through your body and you've got to think like we all have children now so my child is five and I'm like wow you now look at a 10 year old or a 12 year old and like you're still brand new so if you can imagine like at 14 15 I was running really fast times all of those forces going through my skeleton which still hadn't fully formed yeah that's where I got three stress fractures because I was running too fast my muscles had developed too fast my skeleton basically and I was running too fast so I was in a back brace at 18 but this is hilarious because I was filming

in a documentary for the BBC at the time called Sprint. I just spent the whole year injured, but because of my family and the way that we view things and, like, we're just a happy people. I was in the clubs. I was 18. So I was just raving it up and you see it on the documentary right at the end, I'm there, like, having a good time.

You know, silver linings and that, so I got to enjoy myself. And your siblings quite genetically gifted, you know, where you said muscles came early on and stuff like that, is that the whole family got that sort of genetic gene kind of thing. My two sisters, they could have been Venus and Serena Williams if they wanted, the two older ones. But like I said, my parents were so driven on, like I said, they've given up everything to come over to the UK to, you know, make something of themselves and give us an opportunity.

So it was education that was, I think one of my sisters in the borough, she got like the highest, like, you know, what's the thing that you do before in primary school to get to secondary school? 11 plus. Yeah, she was like rank number one in the borough with one of them. So they were really driven on that. And then five, six years later, I come along and I was just... I'm just going to run. Sport, yay!

And you ran 10 seconds dead. That is incredible. Yeah, yeah. I've gone sub 10 windy, so that's when you've got too much wind behind you. Not literal wind in your belly. No. Wind behind you. Big curry and then I run.

You weren't nearly poached. We'll talk about your kid in a minute, but you weren't poached by rugby. That feels like the rugby team would try and nick you and use you. You know what? This is it. I didn't go to the right school, did? I was, I went to, you know, these are things with sport and life experiences, unless you're sort of exposed to it, you're not to know whether you would have been good at it or not.

And then you got poached to go to America and train, but because I signed a contract with, you know, Nike, like I said, when I was like 15, you know, you're here now, this is what you're doing type thing. So that kind of gave me a bit of direction. So what's your daughter doing? What's her club saying? You say she's not really getting into the sport. Is she more of a performer type? Or she, what does she do at the weekend? Yeah, K-pop demon hunters at the minute. They all love that. It's ridiculous, idiot.

She's transitioned from her Disney state to K-pop Demon Hunters. It's sad when Elsa goes, isn't it? When they're not into Elsa anymore, it's quite sad. Yeah, because you're like, I know all the words now, you know. Let it go, Rob. Let it go. Oh, here he is. Oh, there we go.

A bit of fun, isn't it? I think us old dads get it worse as well because we really commit to the play. You know, I'm here right now, I've now got to commit to the nails, to the makeup, to the... I put on my Cuban heels the other day. Oh, did you? I'm going to show you. this picture of like through the screen you won't be able to see it obviously on um but i put on my cuban hills and i turn around and i all i hear behind me is clip clock clip clock and because i was

wearing my heels she went and put hers on amazing oh look her it's hilarious so she excited about your first dance and stuff yeah so my first dance i did um salt and pepper push it and so the whole week when i've been practicing it all she's been saying is just like out of nowhere just be like salt and peppers here push it push it real good like it's nerve wrack we did the Christmas special together

and obviously it's not live you're not on live television that was my highlight Josh doing it with you being able to hold your hand in the cordatorium so you weren't there on Christmas day couldn't possibly comment

couldn't possibly comment for God's sake he'll tell me you do the Sunday show on a Saturday in a minute when you trust anyone these days Claudia was busy on Christmas Day unbelievably so they had to do the whole thing on December 3rd

that was the scariest thing I've ever done really? Yeah wow I was terrified you look sad bro you look good he was dressed as a penguin Harry you're a positive guy

but he looked funny he would look good If he came down the stairs Oh, we're going out for dinner Rose went like, yeah, he's looking good Josh, let's go He looked great for the dance But the thing is, like I said,

That dog in you was not giving anything away I built a career on that Once you've been on a panel show With some people that are really scary Or you've done stand-up In some place where you think you're going to die You have to know how to front it out a bit, don't you? You were good to be fair, Josh,

You were both really good I think they'd set you up to be like the shit one But if we put him in a silly outfit And give him a silly dance it'll be funny, but then what I happened, but I'm naming no names, there were people that looked a little bit more sophisticated and glamorous

that were sort of nailing the shit part, where you were actually good. Thank you, Rob, thank you. So how are you feeling about your daughter watching strictly? Like, I think you could do quite well. I'm going to say this. I've got concerns. I'd love to hear them.

So I think you've got a superb, from what I've seen, you're a good dancer. You've got a natural rhythm. You've got a natural exuberance. I love this. You were very, very good. I can't remember what the type of dance is that you did, but it was active and big and jumpy aroundy

and all that kind of stuff. You used to be a judge, Josh. Do you know what I mean? Jumpy around you. You picked Nancy up and you did spun around all that kind of fun. You danced your pecks. We all enjoyed it. My question is, are you too stiff for the romantic numbers?

You're not wrong, mate. You're not wrong. This is it. These are things I'm scared of. These muscles are actually going to work against me. Have you been doing yoga? Have you been stretching? I've been stretching.

I've been more so for a recovery purposes because this process does work your body. It's this. It's all this. Me trying to hold a frame with my upper body and the delts. I'm right, yeah. Mate, I'm good for 10 seconds. That's it.

You know, and you're asking. Me too, mate. When it comes to romance of being stiff, 10 seconds of me. Sorry. I set you up for that one. So that's going to be more. challenge for you is those more sort of serious ones. Can I ask a question, how much, like obviously you're not gifted because you've worked very hard on your body, but you've got a very aesthetically

pleasing, you know, a lot of, I imagine women and some men will be like in seeing a bit of flesh of Harry as the process continues. Are you sort of like diluting that through? Because you don't want to go tops off for a show. You want a little bit of peck. You want to sort of keep a bit back so they keep you in, do you know what I mean? Before you really show off the bod, have you got that in mind? Don't be too good too early because people want to see you go on a journey. journey, yeah. The J-word journey. You're not wrong, Rob.

I think, obviously, like, physique-wise, I am quite lucky. I've actually got a deficiency of myostatin. That's one of the reasons why I build muscle a lot. So that is just a genetic... This must be what I've got then. I write that down. I tell my doctor, he keeps wondering what's happening.

You just keeps going, you're so heavy. I'm like, yeah, it's your microstatin. Every time I go for a walk. Mayo, Mayo. Mayo. Mayo. Myast the one, yeah. Mastastastatin, yeah.

So what, you've got a deficiency of something It means that you Yeah, so if you Google the Belgian bluebell cow They just down in a field and they're like jacked Right, you know it, mate, it's my screensaver I just have a look It's like looking in a mirror for you, isn't it Rob? Yeah

I can't wait to see your reaction when you see what this cow looks like Fucking hell, Jesus, boy I reckon he'd beat you on, Joel Yeah, man, I don't think he's moving off that platform, is it? So they overbred to go down on that sort of myostatic thing so they get this muscle. Fucking hell. That is a ripped bull.

If you were to... That is like a cartoon. Literally, right? They're ridiculous. So myostatin stops muscle being built. So I have a lack of that, right? I only started weight training when I was like 20 odd. Which side of your family is the cow on?

I'm just like... Funnately enough. You said a garnet, not Belgian. Funnily enough is on my mum's side. side. It's on my mum's side. Yeah, my mum's side. What an episode of who do you think you are, that'll be.

As I take your field in Belgium. This is your distant relative. This is a cattle called it. Yeah. I won't give his mum shit. She's got that as well. She's got to smack your head off on a massive arm. She's ripped as well.

Quick clothesline. Yeah, so body-wise, in terms of what I'll be wearing, it's actually depicted by your dance, right? So if you're dancing like a chacha or a sasa, they want to see your waistline. So, ballroom stuff, obviously it's all about your frame, but then equally you don't want to, like, see, like my shoulders, right? I've got no neck, like my traps are so big, I've got no neck, and they need to see your neck.

So it's a problem. Oh, you do that like extended neck thing. Yeah, if you look at all of the pros, I absolutely love, especially like, I've never obsessed over men before like I have through this process, because you are literally looking, like, I've studied Vito, I'm looking at your harness, and all of them, their posture and their torso. Johannes's posture is wild. My gosh, he's got an extra six inches just through his neck. Yeah, it gives me an extra six inches, I'll tell you that.

Oh, God. What is going on? Lou really wants to do, Strait Lou. Lou does? Lou does, yeah. And she wants to be with Johannes. Yeah, he's great, isn't he? He is great.

He is great. God is something else. Yeah, they're amazing. But if you look at their necks, So if you were to wear like a tux or something or other, and it sort of shortens the gap between your net, so you might not seem in a tux because it will make me look like I've got no net, so it looks like I'm like this when actually I'm trying to be long.

So your dance depicts more of what you're going to wear. Right. Are you happy with your outfit for week one? Do you know what? I think I am. I think I am. I've got, is more so the routine. The routine depicts how you're going to, what you're sort of going to be moving like.

So therefore the outfit works around the routine. so I'm really happy with it. I think it brings up my energy. I don't think I'm going to... I know you think I'm going to be good, but I don't think I'll be in it as long as most people might think, so I'm just happy that I can get across my energy.

Would you be delighted with Blackpool? I would be over the moon with Blackpool. I think I'd be over the moon with Blackpool. Isn't that because that's when the money goes up? I think there's something like that, but for me, Blackpool... Blackpool means you might be in line to... Would you like to do the tour?

The tour. That's it because I would like to do the tour. Oh, so if you get to Blackpool, you get to do the tour. That's why they want Blackpool. So they get to do it more, got you? Is your daughter going to go? So there's this thing that happens where you can't have your kids come in the evening because it's a long night and it's a live TV show.

So they do a family day where all the kids of the production staff or the contestants can come and watch. Is your daughter going to come to the family day if you're still there? Yes. And that will probably be the day. that I have my worst performance. Because she's that. Yeah, do you know what it's like?

Like, I genuinely, growing up, athletics, gladiators, everything that I've done, I've been so independent, no one could phase me. I literally wouldn't invite anyone to come and watch me run. From quite a young age, I used to just jump in someone's car, you know, whoever the person was meeting the track, drive halfway up the country, go and race, come back. So I remember going to meet the Queen once,

and I didn't even tell my parents, you know, I went to Buckingham Palace, you know, I just, rest of their soul. But the moment your child, is around like they're all that matters yeah and once she leaves that building i need to know that she's okay i need to know that she went off okay i need to know there wasn't a tantrum i need to know that all of that stuff is okay and my brain will be frazzled until i know she's asleep and well i was i said i never invited anyone to gigs i didn't even like when we did the oh two for periling hell

i just forgot to invite people because i just go on my own and do it and go home i'm not like i don't need people there i find it hassle let me tell you what happened to me last night harry this was mental in Bedford last night. So we both know Karen Hauer, my partner for Strictly. We love Karen. We love Karen. She lives near Bedford.

I got her two comps for her and Simon, her partner. They put her front row center. Can you imagine how stressful that is? Basically, the only person you can see at the whole gig is the one person you know. She did bring numbers 1 to 10 as well

after every joke, lifting it up. She was like correcting my posture Was she a good hype person? Did she laugh out loud? She laughs a lot, doesn't she? You've met Karen, she laughs a lot. They're under pressure to laugh, though, as well then

if they're watching, do you what I mean? Have you got any gladiators coming to watch? I think some might pass through it. If anything, I was hoping you might come and watch, you know? I'd love to come and watch, Harry. I'd love to come and watch. I am away on tour, but I can get up there and watch before then. When's the first one this week?

Yeah, we've got one this week, and then obviously, unless it's Blackpool. When is it finished? I'm away on tour in Australia, but if you get to the final, there. Everyone, vote for me, please, just so I can have Rob come and watch me. I'm going to see what night. I'm not on tour, and I'm going to come with the wife.

I love that. Have you met Stefan Dennis? Paul Robinson from Neighbours? Yeah. What's he like? He's pretty awesome to be, babe. He's a parenting podcast, Josh. Sorry.

I get we're talking about Harry's journey on Strictly, but now you're just talking about people that used to be in Neighbors that are on Strictly. And I'm too polite not to answer, so. Josh, I don't give a fuck. I'm here for me, promoting me. hopefully I'll do well as strictly get a presenting job off the back of it I've got a kid I love

let's get this time can you do my PR Robbiz give this guy some sort of sports entertainment Saturday show bring back Ninja Warrior Harry's the host

Josh's next zoom they weirdly get on because they like Dragon Ball Z he's a fit one he's the unfit one he'll do the energy he'll do the joke he's a serious athlete

I'm not yeah exactly he's got the dog on him he hasn't he's got the dog in him he's got the dog up his ass chasing him Yeah.

You are in the middle of the odds, Harry. Yeah? Have you looked at the odds? No, no. I don't really know how odds work. I've never, I went to Ascot for the first time this year, and I've never known.

Oh, yeah, I saw you. How was getting your suit made? It was interesting, because that's where they were like, your third is big, but they're quite slender, and then your waist is really small, but then your lats are very big. So, but they did a good job. They did a really good job.

The top hat was, I wore that on the hottest day of the year. I think it was like 30. 34 degrees. Oh, my word. Shall I run you through the odds here? So the favourite is... I'm so sorry that I don't know who this is. Lewis Cope.

So he's a favourite because he did Billy Elliott. Oh, yeah. And he was part of the hip-hop crew. So obviously he's got past dance experience. Yeah, it's a professional dancer. Yeah, I'd have a bit of money on him as well, actually. As opposed to the massive bloke who played Holder in Game of Thrones. But then, I don't know.

He's then got to learn a different type of style of dance. So it's probably... I know. And also, I think it was a bit of a lot of... a bit like Tasha last year. I don't know. You get far, but I don't, I think... It's basically equivalent.

If we were doing like a sport one, it'll be like, right, so we've got Harry here. He's the favourite. He's doing long jumps. So it's not really running, is it? It's sort of a bit like running. He has to jump as well. So...

Ellie Goldstein? Ellie's good. Ellie's really good because, like, obviously she's breaking down barriers. She is the first Down syndrome model to feature on the front of Vogue, I think it was, or GQ one of the two? A model actor, influencer.

Yeah. Tom Skinner, move a lot. George Clark LaVotte Mackey Patterson Yeah Karen Coffney

Karen's good She actually was part of a hip-hop group She said when she was younger Fucking hell Turn it in Vindasopal Alex Kingston

I can't believe I'm saying this But Tom Skinner's above you In the odds Harry I love that That's got a heart Isn't it Look at the shape

Compared to the shape of you Harry Mate I'm not surprised This is what I'm saying Like I'm not relatable I'm like this guy that you look at who's got bulging muscles you know, everyone looks at me and thinks he's all right

kids will love you as well and the kids watch it they'll be in bed, they're not voting Ross King's 100 to 1, what a pun that would be. He's going to do it on Zoom from L.A. if it's anything like the other stuff he got into it. He's dancing on Zoom to Lorraine. From big news here in L.A. Lorraine. I'm dying.

She goes absolutely wild.

The funny thing is the thing that I can't get over with my brain is that she knows the difference between Nitro and Daddy. Yeah. But I'm the same person. You know, when I come out, she's like, Nitro, Nitro. And then what's even funnier is that when all these little kids are asking for my autograph, she joins the cue to get an autograph. Oh, amazing. That's so good.

I'm like, get to the front, what are you doing? And then, like, she'd literally be like, no, I need your autograph dad. I'm like, I'll do it later. No, no, no, no. I need you to sign it. It's hilarious. She really does play into it.

That's very healthy, though, of her astute that she can see the difference in the persona's like, because when I was doing it, my daughter was just crying the whole time. She's just getting beaten up. And I was like, I'm just beating the beaver. And then, like, I couldn't concentrate. She was like, crying.

So I was getting smashed to pieces by legend. But that's because she loves you, in it. She's like, what's going on? Why does he look so scared and small? And why are these men so big? it is such a weird world though in it when you watch it and the kids there like i love it because my daughter has been able to watch it quite young to three and four of the ages that she's watched it at and like you do wonder if they'd be able to sit through it like you know we do the typical

i'm a helicopter parent so you know i check in every moment i can but they love it the music's playing the you know tug-of-war the sugar hype like they literally have a field day day even as long as it is she literally embraces it but the problem is she then goes back to normal life, thinking that chest bumping everyone is a normality. Many of the gladiators got kids, because obviously a lot of them will be, like, in their 20s and stuff. Mate, older than that. Well, you've got one or two at 40, mate.

Viper? Yeah, yeah, he's one of the older ones. Yeah, he's got a few kids. He's a scary dad, isn't he, Viper? He's so soft. When we went to Gladiators, my daughter genuinely didn't want to meet Viper. Like, she was like, I just can't dad. What do you do as a dad, though?

Like, so, for example, right, Aubrey, Ireland. she calls him Uncle Viper but then she looks at his TV persona and then she's like oh yeah don't like him but then when she sees him because he comes around quite a lot for the first 30 minutes

she stands away like looking at him like what I have to coach her in such a way I'm like look you've got to be brave you've got this you know his Uncle Viper it's fine like I always find that I'm giving her all these like pep talks

you're trying to like give them an essence of confidence but like they're leaning into something that is natural to them yeah I mean though you'll get loads of kids coming up wanting photos of you because your personality is so like, I'm Nitro, I'm happy, I'm the chatty smiling one.

So that must be like overwhelming. Actually, for Viper, it's better because they'll be like, oh, you can't ask Viper. It's like, when me and Romish, Romish gets away, even though he's like, well-famous, less people all ask him for photos because they'll think they'll tell him to go away, where me, they're all over it. So you're me, you're me and he's Viper, I love that.

Yeah. Because it's true, though. It was like, we did a meet and greet. We've done a couple together where we had maybe like a thousand, and 2,000 people. And I spoke to every single individual words he didn't open his mouth once. Oh, really?

Just amazing. It's true, isn't it? He can't even ruin the character if he did it, you know? And that's what he said. He's like, nope, you know, I'm here. This is my job. This is what I'm doing. He had a great day.

Because I think it's weird with gladiators because obviously they want to protect the brand and protect the characters, but it's a very open world now with social media and other stuff. So there are, you know, people can see what's going on and kids are intelligent enough to know. When we were kids, the gladiators,

never use their real names. But this generation of gladiators, you do operate under your real names. Yeah, yeah. And do you know what? If you guys ever want to smash hit on anything you do, just bring Viper around

because he's a great guy outside of it. You know, he's great in social settings. If you get him to like wince a smile, see if you can make, but your stuff would go blow up. Because he's never smiled. If you put anything on TikTok and he literally has a wince of a smile,

the comments and views on it go crazy. I remember we was trying to book Q before. to do something, but he was like, oh, he can only come on as Nitro. Yeah. I was like, okay, well, we've met him, and we know his name's Harry, and he's quite a good guy, and he's got, well, does Nitro have children? I'm not sure. Well, I don't mind dealing with Nitro, the character, but we'll have to talk about having kids, so.

Oh, he's from right near you, Viper? He's from Leatherhead. In striking distance. Striking distance with that pugil stick, right? Yeah. He was a model. Mate, he's been in James Bond. He's out like that.

giving him shit. He's been in James Bond. He's like, you know, he's an actor. He's often been in some of those roles where it's like, I'm the triad boss. You know, like those guys are in a bar and they follow you in. Yeah, the cliches that we know in this world. That's what I'm saying. They've done well with the casting.

They've done really well with the casting. Are you too young for the first gladiators? Or did you catch a... Not as well. I'm married to who I think is my version of Jet. Okay. Respect. A tan brunette.

Like, you don't realize that at this point in life, we are setting everyone's standards of, you know, what they might look forward to in life. So I apologize to all the dads or moms out there that when their daughter brings home, me. I think it's very positive. The new gladiators, the female gladiators,

are bodybuilders as much as the male gladiators, whereas that wasn't really the case in the first gladiators. I think that's a very positive thing. But what you've also got to appreciate is the same way technology improves, the physical ability of everyone improves. Not to say that the other gladiators in the past. So you're saying you could beat the shit out of an old gladiator?

I mean, they did have a few Olympians, but across the board, I think we're a little bit more, maybe more dynamic, or we've got more accolades within our sports that we came from. So we're a little more decorated and, like, you know, a load of old juice eds from the 90s. I was an athlete, Josh. If you didn't think Shane Davis had any accolades,

that's for you to say, Harry. If you think Sharon Davis's swimming gold medals were worth nothing, that's your choice. My name was a gladiator. Right at the end, she was, yeah. You know, and they're like, what will save this series? Let's start doing celebrities as gladiators. Oh, I'm glad to start the downfall of the latest one then.

When the beaver was the beginning at the end. And so, Wood strictly, is that going to eat up your life? How's that going to affect your pair? Like, is that, and it's quite weird, isn't it? Because you might be doing this for two weeks. You might be doing it for, you know, three months or so. I bet Pete Wicks didn't think he was going to be doing it as long as he did. Do you know what I mean?

Like, you might be doing this for quite a long time. How is your family preparing for this strictly kind of hurricane to hit? It's like a weird one because what we've done is we put things in place. So strictly really good with training time. So I can do the school drop, which is great. Because it's really important that, you know, especially that my daughter started school, like I just dropped her off just now. And her teacher actually said yesterday where I was quite busy.

So I didn't drop her off and I didn't pick her up yesterday. And she said in the day, towards the end of the day, she was like, oh, I think I miss my daddy now. And like, when you hear things like that, you're like, oh, mate, I need to, so the fact that I get to do a drop, which is really good. I'll wake up in the morning, I'm there. She can see me. As for the rest of the day, I'm going to be training until like five, you know, five series. So it's sort of wrapped up.

But I can do bedtime. Oh, that's good. The dancer, whoever it may be, do they come to you? Like, are they having to train in South London? Yeah. So luckily enough, my routine hasn't really. trained because I'm actually training where I train anyway at the track. You're training at the track? Yeah, the facility I train at is like a high performance centre that no one uses. Like there's

literally, in the middle of the runway of the long jumps, they've set up a crash. Really? Yeah, like no one uses Saturn Arena. It's ridiculous. It's like, so underused. It's got a full 400-meter track, indoor, 60 metres straight. Obviously, I've been training there since before, you know, any of that stuff was built back in like 05. You know, they're really nice and they're like, look, you can use this studio. So it's actually quite good from a parenting point of view that you're near your home all week and then it's just the weekends you're filming. I've moved away from it

but it's part of my like routine because I would travel to train there anyway so we've just sort of slipped into the same process of where I would go to train on the track and do my training there. I'm just not staying on the track I'm going into the dance studio. So when you're not doing strictly, for example,

are you just training for gladiators or are you still doing any athletics or what other stuff are you doing throughout the year? Like what's the plan for you? know, you know her identity crisis. Yeah, I know, right? I don't know. Answer, gladiator, runner, which you picking? I don't know. The funny thing is, so last year, this is where we have to be really appreciative of where we are in life and what we do. So I started the year, took my daughter to Disney World, and I ran in Florida. And I was actually UK number one for six weeks and the hundred

meters. Oh, wow. I ran at 35. Yeah, at 35. I was, I opened up with my fastest ever opener at 35. So the body is still good. But then obviously, I was in a position. where I could have probably made the relay team, you know, had I pushed it and, you know, went for it for the Olympics, or I had to film Gladiators. Now, I was going to have to answer that question when I got to that point, but then I hurt my leg anyway, so I couldn't do the gladiators in the way that I wanted to, but I got given epic pranks and then I still went over to the Olympics and did some reporting. So then, you know, once I then recovered from my injury after the Christmas special, for me, the best way to train is athletic. So I never climbed the wall before. I never held puteal sticks before. I never did. hang tough before, but when I did it in series one, I took to it well because I was still competing. I made the British Champs final after filming gladiators in series one. So I haven't actually retired yet. I'm still moving well and running fast. So I think training like an athlete is what makes Nitro the best, one of the best gladiators. So one of one of the best gladiators or what he does. So within that, I'm going to stay training that way, but then that enables me to

still be able to sprint if I want. So that's probably the plan. I'll do strictly. I've had to put on a bit of size strictly because everyone talks about how, you know, you're going to lose weight and she's all going to fall off. But it'll be interesting to see what I look like after. And then I'll just train. Imagine having to put on weight because you know you're going to lose it. I just can't comprehend that. It's absolutely the opposite of my entire 39 years. I tell you, not having to do that, Ross King. He's not worrying about that. He's going, I don't think I don't think I'm going to be here long enough to have a real impact. I think you're going to smash it anyway. I think it's, you were so lovely to my girls at Gladiators when they were a bit

worried and that because they were like bashing me up. Like you was going, don't worry, daddy's doing well and they loved it. You meeting and stuff like that. But it's a family occasion though, in it? This is what I think about being a dad, being a parent is like so much for me, gladiators is the most amazing thing because all of a sudden I've got this superpower that, you know, kids listen to me and it's really, really weird. You know, like I've had so many parents just be like, oh, could you tell my kids to eat their broccoli? And they do. And, you know, if I can help parents, parent that little bit better, you know, like that hour that you get a freedom, being a gladiator is, when I do gladiators, you guys watch it, we're glorified babysitters for an hour, you know, so, you know, if we can send good messages and help people sort of as a family come closer together and enjoy themselves more. And that's why when I do see, you know, families and kids, I'm so appreciative because I think about what it does for my child when I see, you know, I took her to, we filmed season one of gladiators, right?

She weren't really too fast. Went to Chessington and they had this weird little show where a panda and this person was superheroes. She was cast. I watched that show over and over for all day for like, they ran it. Like they play it for 10 minutes and then you'd have to wait 20 minutes. We stayed there for two hours. And I was just like, you are making my child feel great.

Do you know what I mean? So I'm there for it and I'm there for it. So, you know, like when you say like the kids, they love it. but it's because it's like out of their world. So when the parents are involved, I love it even more because the kids can really back their parents and look at them in situ and go, you know what,

I respect you, like I praise you, you know? Are you training today? Yes, I need to get a WD 40 out for these hips because they're a bit stiff. Oh, no.

We won't keep you too long. We've got the final question for you. We ask everyone. Well, so one thing your partner does as a parent that makes you feel in awe of them and they're amazing. And what one thing does she do

that annoys you slightly, but you don't want to say, her face but if she was to listen to this she might go yeah harry's got a point what she does that i'm in awe of is her ability to be so mindful of everyone else like what she's done with orbray and being a mum in the way that she always puts her first and everyone else first really that i'm in awe of because it's such a skill to be able to take a step back right but within that she is like the most like what's the word I'm looking for self-destructed person

self-sabotaging is that the thing sabotaging that's it the worrying the worrying concept it's just like you know don't worry about it how many times have you said that we're figuring out when we get there don't worry about it just keep churning it in her head and making it worse kind of thing yeah like I want you to relax mate just have to chill out I think one time we booked a flight for a holiday and on the return leg of the flight

like this is two months away yeah we had a flight coming back from I think it was Dubai at like 1 a.m and the whole time was just worrying about you know we're on holiday and she's thinking oh even before the holiday I wonder how Aubrey's going to do coming home on that flight how is she going to go

what plan do we have how do we plan the day what are we going to do about the hotel checkout this is six weeks ahead I'm like we're not there yet this is a big one in a lot of relationships where it's like because there needs to be some sort plan, but it doesn't need to be six weeks out, but also it can be like, let's just ski.

And you know what happened? You know what happened? We got on the flight. She fell asleep and was perfectly fine. And then your partner will be like, well, that's because we planned the day that I organised six weeks earlier. That's why that worked. I've got good news and bad news, Harry. I'm going to say this now. Do you know when the final is of Strictly,

it's December the 20th? Jesus. Fuck, you know. It's worrying that you haven't looked into that, but I've looked at my tour day, they're not good. If you are still in strictly on November the 29th

because I'm gigging on Saturdays, I will be there. What week will that be? Let me count what week that is. So what's week one? Is that the 27th of September? Yes, week one, 27th. But you can't get eliminated on week one, can you?

No, you can get eliminated on four. So you'll have to get through one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight eliminations you need to get through. That's doable. It's doable, definitely. I'm gigging on every single Saturday between now and Christmas, so good luck with it.

I won't make it, Harry, I'm sorry. You can jump in on Zoom with Ross. I'll jump in on Ross King. I bet you could do like one of those, you know, the kind of embarrassing sketches they do, where you could turn up to the dance thing as the beaver and then they can all have a bit of a laugh. Oh, yeah. I've got a gladiator coming down
