Hello and welcome to Tablemanors. I'm Jessie Ware and I'm here with Lenny looking rested. Rested would be a very odd thing for me to look, to be honest. Straight in from California, IA. Someone's head just popped round the mirror at the window. Okay, Sam. Yeah, Sam, who's just come back from the hospital. Yeah.

Who's just told me he's got a slight fracture. From an injury since he was on a paddleboard in Greece in August. So this is a lesson. to everyone to just do less. He's a trooper. He's an idiot. Anyway, you've come back from L.A. I've just come back from Lanzarotti,

which was really fab. Could have done with it a little warmer. I could have done with no rain. It rained for 10 days. Oh dear. Yeah. Well, I ate amazingly, I think anyone who's thinking about going to Lanzarotti,

you should absolutely go. Do you have little bit of potatoes? Yeah, they weren't wrinkily enough for me this time. I'll do it for you, don't. I had the most gorgeous time, like, going to all the spots with the kids, for Mara. Tried to pretend that I was in an Amad of our film. Saw a volcano. The fire brigade had to come up Tim and Fire, the volcano, because when they do the demonstrations with, like, the hay, to show that it's, you know, active.

Yeah. They went to, like, hay heavy. And so there was just smoke, so the fire brigade had to come. What else? Lava chicken, they do there, which was fab. for all the kids that like Minecraft, so that was good. Besides having Cosmos at Sunset Tower, which is my favourite place on Earth, on New Year's Day, we were lucky enough that Phil Rosenthal organized us a place in his new diner.

Who is, you know, it's him and Nancy Silverton, both guests on the podcast. They have this new hot diner, Max and Helens. Max, that's his parents. The mugs have a picture of his mum and dad and their wedding outfit. There's lots of photos. And it was delicious diner food. I had Leo eggs. What are they?

Leonardo DiCaprio. No, apparently it's a classic dish, which I'd never heard of. It's Gravidlax with scallions, which are spring onions, and eggs. And they scramble it all together. But the big thing there is their waffle with maple butter. Did you get it? Yeah, for the table. For the table.

I thought about you, Jesse. We had one for the table. No, it was all very delicious and fun and very nice. atmosphere. I also went to a lovely restaurant called Little Fish, where I think I had the nicest piece of fish ever, steelhead trout with Cod's Row, which were like little balls that burst in your mouth with a kind of salsa on the top. Well, speaking of fish, I am on food duty today and I decided to return to Easter Belfridge because she can do no wrong in my eyes. So I'm trying out her celebration salmon, which is from her book, Mescla. And so it's a very important. And so it's a

the book before Fuzayo. So Celebration Salmon, which you do on a really low heat, you make this kind of salsa, which is very Easter. It's got lemon grass, chilies, tomatoes, peppercorns, ginger, garlic, all the delicious things, lime juice. And then you put a lot of olive oil. So you kind of confede the salmon and do it really low and slow. Have you put it in? Yes. Okay. And you cook it for like 45 minutes, but low and it should be really pink, but I know you're not going to want it pink. I don't mind the pink. Oh, you really? Yeah.

And then I'm doing it with her sticky coconut rice. And then I've done it with this cucumber salad that she tells you to do it with. So very delicious, lots of flavours, delish, zingy. And then I've done our no churned cappuccino ice cream with Ferreira Roche from our book. Because it's a good recipe. It's so easy. Yep. And delish.

Yeah. And, well, I hope it's delicious. but I need to be reminded to take it out of the freezer. Otherwise you'll never get through. Yeah. So that's that and it's so quick. It's like cream, some instant coffee granules, condensed milk. Yeah.

It's quite nice. So that's what we're having. And do you want to introduce who we've got on the podcast today? We've got a double act. It's like Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers. They're a classic double act and it's Alan Carr and Amanda Holden. Do you think she's going to come in an evening dress? No, she's coming from hearts radio, isn't she?

She does dress. She does the breakfast radio. She's such a dresser though, isn't she? She makes the effort. Actually, in the show, she says that she wants on her tombstone, never knowingly understated. And Alan said, isn't that like the Tesco? John Lewis. John Lewis or something. Never knowingly undersold.

And it did make me laugh. They have so much fun together and they're doing one of their house makeovers. In Corfu. In Corfu, which is where Alan and I filmed a TV show together, and I know Amanda goes there every summer, so I think they've probably the best summer ever, and the house was looking fab. I've watched about five episodes.

How much did they buy the house for? I don't think it was a one euro, Jeremy. Otherwise, I'm going to go and do that. Yeah, I think we should. So we'll be talking to Amanda and Alan about real estate in Europe, and also, of course, traitors, Hart FM. I loved when Amanda asked Timothy Shalame, what he got Kylie for Christmas.

She just says it, doesn't show. He didn't actually have her anything yet, I don't think. Amanda Holden and Alan Carr coming off on table manners. Alan and Amanda, welcome. We've been waiting for this. Yes, we have. I'm starving. Okay, good, because it's ready.

I mean, Alan, you know, you're talked about as one of our favourite guests ever when we had the best time of our lives with you. It's about time that you're back. Well, you're my favourite, not Jessie's. Oh, is your favourite? Of course you are. Wow, wow. It's me that always says it.

Jesse always says, I know who she's going to say, Alan. Well, we had, there was a chemistry between us. There was. There was a smart. There were five bottles of wine. I was going to say her chemistry is some v. Yeah, there was. But you know what she said.

And I remember she made a lemon curd cake. You know, inside I was like, a euphemism. No, no. And I was like, lemon curd. And you're only being polite, it was delicious. It was a roulette, wasn't it? It's my lemon curd roulette. Yeah, I was like dreading.

Did you not? Did you not? No, it's hard to roll a meringue. It just got to be brave. But Amanda, we have been really excited about having you. And obviously, we watch you on the screens together. Yes. And, you know, you're fabulous.

But, Jessie, isn't she gorgeous? Yes. And they've come straight on a motorbike today as well. You look a bit like a headrest. How dare you? Do I smell? No, fishy because it's only pleather. Oh, sometimes it does...

Cheatheleather. You go... What's pleather? Oh, it's faux leather. But if you get a cheap one, you can smell a bit... Bit fishy. Yeah. It looks great. You don't smell fishy.

I worry, because you... We're having fish, so... That's good. It will mask it. It will mask the smell, Ellen. No, I do have to say, before you... Well, before we started recording, Amanda came with a massive box of goodies and was very instructive on what was going to happen with the boxes.

And, you know, I've seen this go on on the TV show too. Yeah, yeah, yes. You do as you're told. Oh, God. To put the champagne that was in the box. Well, you did. The best thing that you've said was what you got us, the most delicious champagne called Rueenard.

It's Rourinat. It's delicious, which is your favourite. So you brought two bottles, thank you so much. And for you and your mum. Yeah, and you said for us to drink, which we're very excited about. at Pino Noir and I think you thought I was about to put it in my cellar. You said that's because you're drinking.

Thank you. Thank you. No. We're having it now. Thanks. Everyone, we're having two bottles. I'm maybe three today. Four days of not drinking and that's a big deal for me.

Oh, yeah. Dry January. I don't know. I call it's dry. Try. Oh, yes. It's gone. It's gone out of the window now.

It's quite damp. It's very damp. Dry Jan would be a great name, wouldn't it? Dry Jan. You wouldn't get any booking. But you know what people say they say to it? Oh, are you and Amanda really friends? But we are, aren't we?

We are. You couldn't do that show. No. Even if you just liked someone, you couldn't do it. Because it's 40 degrees and you've been caught. We've been to Corpheel. Yeah. It's boiling hot.

We've all got something in common. I know you were really unlucky. But I loved it. But you filmed in exactly the same area that we were filming in. Cassiopic. Yes. Yeah, and it was boiling hot. And if you thought that was hot,

then you have to try and lay a gravel path and build a thing. And we're forever saying, Oh my God, look, we've got some builders. Can they do someone? They're like, no, you have to do it. And everyone always says that to us as well. You did look pretty hot when you were doing the bunk bed with the drill and you were like that, legs akimbo.

But you had that Greek machismo and they thought she was a lady. They underestimated Amanda. They were like, hey, pretty lady, I take that and she can't. No. slightly think men do everything. They're not, it's not like they're chauvinist. It's, they're very traditional. Traditional, I'm going to say, because I love them.

Well, listen, I wish the man had come up to me and say, don't leave, don't move that paving slab. Well, you couldn't move it. I couldn't. No. Sheg, Alan couldn't move the paving slab, bless him. But anyway, there's another story. It is very kind of traditional.

You're right. They're a traditional breed. I mean, I'd be happy for someone to do that in this country. I don't even get out with a shopping. I did the food shop yesterday. I had to ring my husband to come out of his office to come out of a food shop. You should leave him and move in with me.

That is not what will happen in the end. But Chris would be probably dead. I would never leave him. I love him. So, but then I would live with Alan. Yes. Yeah. We've already got a plan set here.

Which country would you have? Yeah. It would be Corfu, wouldn't it? We love Corfu. We're actually holidayed in Corfu together. Yeah, we did. We love it. So you and I did our,

Mama Mia TV show. And it was so funny because you mentioned the rain then and it was all open air. And for the, you know, it's not meant to rain in Corfo in July. And you know what the producers were like, just ignore the rain, pretend the rain's not there. And the rain was, and I'm going, and I think, I love to performance.

You need little windscree bottles on your glasses. But didn't you have hot water bottles under your seat? Amber did like, she was like, she'd come from L.A. And she was like, what the fuck is this shit? No, it was amazing, but I remember you saying that you'd already been there with Amanda. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And we were going to some of the spots that Amanda likes to eat it. That's for she's all of them.

Yeah, but they're amazing. It's terrible. Yeah, I'm known for my drinking and eating everywhere. That's great. But it's good. That's the thing I love about cool foods because I never thought I'd be that person that went back to the same place every year on holiday. But I go there because I've got kids six years between them. They both love it.

And they know it. And I can walk into a restaurant and know I'm going to get good food. It's great to me. I don't have to worry or feel self-conscious. And I've said this before. So good. In the early days of our friendship, I didn't know how popular, you know,

Kofu was for you and all the good. You could say I was. No. But when you go in the, but when you go in all the tavernas, there's a statue of the Virgin Mary and her in a bikini. It's like, and then I went there,

you know, Amanda? You know, when we were filming people, would come over. You know, Amanda. Amanda, your friend. Like this one, yes, yes. Your very sprix is completely reversed now. I can't go anywhere without talking.

Everyone's talking to me about traitors. Yeah, I know. You should show them what I just got you. Oh, it's in your handbag. I just, it's a real, it's not expensive, so it might be terrible. But I just bought Alan. Do you know what someone got me for Christmas?

Traders board game. I mean, that, come on, please. It was so triggering. It was so triggering. Yeah. Oh, wow. Oh, wow. It's a bottle of a white called traitor,

but it was a really. Is that not for the taste of the Is it your picture? No, that's for the journey. That's for the journey hope. Give him his cloak. He had to go on Amazon like the rest of us. Why do you?

I didn't I believe that. No, celebrity. That's a liberty. Like a bespoke, heavy duty, well-made green cloak. Yeah, and I want the waxed in the thing. And also want the portrait. What are they going to do with an Alton Car portrait?

Absolutely. Where is that now? I've asked but they won't reply. No. One of the runners has got it up in their hand. We'll have a word. Yeah. Well, hopefully this will highlight it, Ellen. We'll have a word, Jesse.

Yeah, I'll have a word. What are you going to do when Alan Carr wax it? Alan, you played a blinder. Congratulations. It was brilliant. I mean, you were a national treasure before, but you are now absolutely a door cry. You'd probably be knighted in the next. Well, I'd let's say.

I think so. I'm waiting long. I know. I do enough for blood. charity. But in Cassiope and Corfu, he walked down... I love that you call it Cassiope. What is it?

I don't know. I mean, I say Cassiope. But maybe is that. But I think Cassiope makes it sound posh. No, I think Opa, Opie. Is it? Is it? But we've all got something in common, you know.

We've all performed. Well, I haven't. I missed out because I was doing L.A. Pride. And you all had a big night out. And I was gutted. and you all went to illusions. Yeah, illusions is the best. Well, tell everybody that doesn't know what illusions is.

Well, illusions is one of those bars that sort of shows all the sports during the day. And at night it turns into a karaoke bar where you've got props. Oh, it's my favour. Everything. Well, it sort of goes from being... Props. Yeah, I wore a pink one. When I did, I didn't do it with you.

I went with my family and wore pink wigs and all of that and obviously got blind drunk and lived my best life. What did you say? What's your song? I always sing Abba. I always sing it. The only time I was ever jealous of you is when you did that Mamma Mia show because that's like my idea of absolute heaven in my favourite place. It didn't get recommissioned.

I know it was so good. I cried. I cried when they said. I couldn't believe it. A month in Corfu. I know. You have a joyful job. It was a beautiful job.

They should just put it out again now. I love that. But they've just moved to New York. It's opening on Broadway at the Abba Mamma Mia. So now they're going to have to recast it. So you could go over two. Alan? That would be amazing.

Hawaii, I think. She's the producer woman. What she called? Judy Craver. She said, didn't she? Was you there? You were going to be in three. Mama Mia three.

You will be. I would say that's a guarantee you're going to be a gay. But not one of the dads, because even I can't act that good. But you know. Did you say a gay waiter? A gay waiter. Which would be a stretch. Listen, even if I go,

hummus, miss streep, something like that. I think you need to go hummus. Hummus. And what was her character name? Donna. Donna, she's dead now, isn't she? Merrill Street, dead?

No, Jessie. Spoiler alert. I'm never going to be in Mamma Mia free now. Look at how about it's the ghost of Merrill Street? Didn't Donna die in the second one? No. Yes. How is she?

How are they going to do that? They could do it as a ghost. It couldn't be a ghost. It would be like, She's quite arterial. Yes. Oh, my God. You could definitely recast a New York one.

God. There's a show. Well, we were thinking Les Mis going to, um, Les Mis, sorry. Les Mis. Les Mis. Les Mis. That's because of that festival you're talking about. I'm going to a lesbian festival.

I didn't read the small... Who is it called Les Mis? Shut up. No, it's not called Les Mis. No, it's not called Les Mis. Because we don't live in the 80s, do we? It's called Girls Just Wanna Have Fun. Hold on, you're going to a festival in Mexico.

Yeah, okay. My friend Rossi rings me up. You know Rossi. Alan, Alan. Who's orgasm to every album of mine in one night, as he told me. Yes, yes, he makes love. He told me, I was thrilled in front of you. He said he makes love to her music.

And lots of people say that. Anyway, carry on. So you're going with Rossi. Yeah, and he said, do you want some winter sun? I said, yes. He said, C-Mats playing, love. Yes. Sam's safe, love, Brandycar, love.

I said, put me down, put me down. So we sent me some footage of it. I went, I can't see many men in it. And it's a lesbian festival and 95% lesbian and they're non-binary friends. Well, yeah. And then I went, fuck, I didn't make the small friends. And the headline, the title is, girls just want to have fun. Yeah.

The clues were there. You'll have fun with the girls. Of course, I will. You just may not find love. Are you going to be allowed in, though? They'll let out in. Even in Mexico. He's a national treasure.

What's made him? He's vanished for children. Creators cloak. Craitor's cloak and me lantern. Could you wear the red one? I am and always have been a lesbian. But I can't wait. What's have great music, we're going to have fun.

It's an all-inclusive. Oh, lovely. Carnage. Ready? Go for it. Oh, God. Oh, wow. Let me do Mommy first.

Thank you, darling. When are you going to Tulum, darling? Oh, in a, oh, next week. Oh, wow. I can't wait. Thank you. They do yoga on the beach, Alan. I won't be doing that.

And they run. I want to do a bit of downward dog. You never know, Alan. Because you know on the show, Alan and Amanda Grego, she, behind my back, in a lovely way, though, she put me on the apps, the gay apps. And you're a gay ally, but it was an eye opener for you. I was in shock some of those questions.

And nothing really shocks me. What do you mean gay apps? In England or Greece? Greece, in Greece. It was so graphic. Oh, like what? How big. I had to discuss all of that.

How big downstairs. How big? I do know bits, but I don't know that much. But everyone's going to lie. Well, they're not going to say, yeah. Oh, my. Photos of it. I was like, it was eye-watering, just the thought of it, Alan.

And she was like, Alan, are you a top, power top? I'm going to bottom. Are you a top of, bottom? Bottom, bottom, Adam. I thought, well, this is BBC. I can't go into this. Bibi C. I said, I'm hot pot.

Exactly. Anything goes, I think. You can stick anything in it. Like Betty from Coronation Street. You can stick anything. That's, was that like Betty's hot pot? Did she do that? That looks insane.

So, it's Easter Belfridge's Celebration Salmon, and you kind of confee the salmon, and you do like this delicious tomato, lemon grass, ginger, garlic, holy basil, delicious. Holy Basil? Yeah. What's her really? Just Thai Holy Basil?

Oh, I've never heard of it either, darling. Cheers, Jessie. Cheers, La Chiexie. Happy New Year. Happy New Year. Thank you. Happy New Year. Thank you.

So it's lovely to finally be here. It's great to have you. It's the best. It's the best champagne. It's the best. I mean, let's put that back in the fridge. We can't have it for one moment. up. Sorry to Vosch. We've done our research. We've done our research on Chan. She's so bossy.

Wow. But I think this champagne is actually good for you. I think it is good for you. I think the bubbles oxygenate your blood and make you look younger. Yes. Yes. I'm 87. And mum, can you do this please? Yeah, but she's, she's going to have an opinion on how I do it. So I just prefer to do it. it please. Oh. You know, fine. Great, done. So this is sticky rice,

coconut sticky rice cake. So like you have that with this. Oh, no, I mean, it's all right. So do you a bit. Do you want to square love? Please, darling. Oh, yes, take that. It smells so good.

This smells and tastes so clean. I'm going to try and eat more salads this year. Is that your, I don't believe in resolutions? I just don't believe in them. What is the thing that tastes perfume? me in there. It's like Lemon grass.

Lemon grass. This is not, it's sort of like bubble bath. Oh. It's so nice. No, in a nice way. Really?

I used to love bubble eating it when I was a kid in the bar. Did you like the violet? Yeah, I love parma violets. Parma violets. And I used to eat the bubbles from Maity Bubble Bath. I should just eat them

when I was in the bath. Oh no. I mean. What's Maity bubble bath? Maitie. It had a little. It's like a sailor. It had a sailor hat cat, didn't you.

Oh yeah. And then the bottle was like dressed like a sailor. It was such a treat in the house. Do you want some lime? Yeah, the taste is really good. This is absolutely delicious. This is absolutely delicious. Oh, good.

The salmon is really nice, right? Because it's kind of really slowly. Anyway. So what time were you up this morning? I got up at five. Which I don't think so bad. That's kind of, you know, a Kardashian wake up. God, is it?

Yeah, they wake up. Do they do their faces in ice baths and things like that? Ice bath, trainer. I sleep in my lash to knock off 10 minutes. So these eyelashes have been on for about 12 years. Just kidding. No, I sleep like I'm in a coffin. You know my friend Jess now.

So I have a friend Jess from Oldham and I've shared a lot of beds with her in hotels and she say, you sleep like you're in a coffin. Because I don't move. So my eyelashes stay great. And then I just literally trowl it on. Do you do your makeup? Yes.

For the heart. Breakfast. Yes. And then you get him. I get in four, we're on air at 6.30. You get packed, I see that every day. Every day I get papped on the way out. We get videoed all day long like this.

Yeah, because when I first got the gig, I was like, oh, brilliant. I can go in my jammies and just be out of there by 10. That never happens. So what did you have for breakfast this morning, Amanda? Well, so let me speak with my mouth full. She loves a boiled egg. Me too, I love. She loves a boiled egg.

You say that. With salt rolled in salt. Lots of pepper too. Oh my God. So antisocial. I don't care. When you peel them, everyone thinks she'd trumped.

But she pops a spare one in her handbag, so when she opens it, you say, have you farted? Egg any one? I did that a lot. I used to take the eggs in cool food, didn't I? For snacks later. Is that correct? Because you're trying to get your protein up?

Or just because you love an egg? Just because I love an egg and I'm... Yeah. No, because I'd have an egg and a quassal. But this morning I had not much because I knew I was coming here. Yeah, I'll save myself. I didn't have anything. I wanted to save myself.

Neither did I. No, this is perfect. No, pressure. Now, I want to talk about your, you know, your singing career. You've also been up for an Olivier, haven't you? Yes. Oh, I love you for remembering all these things. When are we going to, like, hear you singing?

We were actually meant to be label buddies. We were on the same label. Oh, my gosh. Yeah. So you did an album. I did an album in lockdown. Yeah. Which did really well.

and I always say, my husband will kill me for this because he always say, just own the fact that it did well, but I always say it did well because everyone was in lockdown, there was no choices. They sort of have forced it. My album did really well in lockdown. Oh, shush, you're not great. But then what's the phenomenon about lockdown?

Because everyone was listening to everything anyway. I released an album, no one fucking bought it. Can I ask a burning question? You two aren't going to present strictly together. Oh, we said no ages ago. Oh, it's him busy, baby. Okay, when's Chattie Man coming? Oh, everyone.

That was another clickbait thing during Traitors. But why don't we just bring it back? It was so fantastic. It's the best and he was the best. You need your chat show back. A chat show. Well, it would be nice to do a chat show. Yeah, I don't know.

I don't. But yeah, I read it and all, Chattie Man's come, but no one's approached me or anything. So what would you love to do? No, you are in a complete. a national treasure, you can do anything. So what show would you like to do, Alan? I don't know what, I've kind of done it all. No, no, that sounds wanky, but I have.

Got me sitcom. Yeah, I do a show with me, Bessie Mae. I do my own interior design show. I've got me, you know. So what's next? I don't know. Maybe a film. Astronaut.

Astronaut. Only fans. There you go. There would be a market. Yeah, well, imagine the sickos. Which bit would you show? My feet.

I keep thinking we should do feet Because you can earn a fortune Have you got really good feet? No, my husband says I look lovely till I get to my ankles And he says my feet are like Like little wool sausages That have been hit with a mallet

I'm not surprised with the shoes you wear Ever heard anything like it? That's like you got lovely feet Have you got bunions? No Oh, I'm sure you might like Victoria back of the table You're not had to...

Please don't put your feet on it With hands burping being really mean. I think Chris is, I think it's time to move in with Alan. Yeah, I love your feet. I'd give you a toe job every night. You also love Chris. That'll be the headline in the Daily Mail.

Oh God, there we go. Sick Alan sucks Amanda's toe. A toe job for charity. For charity. But I think you are filthy, both of you. And the fact that it's so politely PG, that lovely show that you, like, I mean, how? Well, it's like a pantomime. There's something.

for the mums and dad and the kids. It all goes over the heads. It does definitely go over the heads. But I do feel like you could do a late night one too. They could be an after hours one. Do you know what they do? In a couple of weeks or whatever, they will release. And it's amazing that the BBC actually let us do it.

But they release all the bloopers. That's brilliant. Which are really mad and naughty. And they just put them at eye player, put them out there. And it's sort of everywhere. Yeah. And that's. We have such a laugh.

But we've also got an amazing team. Who we say without, and they've been the same team for all this time. And that lovely when they come back. That is such a pat on the back. It's a relief. It's a relief because they look after us. Yeah, yeah. I'm trying to add some structure to this episode because it's already been derailed.

And I love it. It's a renovation episode. You really love it. It's fat. And he's underpinning. We can rebuild your podcast. Thank you. Thank you so much, Alan Carr.

The foundations need a bit of work, but anyway. Joking. It's fine, darling. Amanda, a childhood memory of like a dinner scene around the table. Who was cooking? What were you eating? Well, is Judith a good cook? My mum's a good cook, Judith.

She's fat. My mum's lovely. And I think that's the biggest thing that I've tried to instill into my family is sitting around the table at least on a Sunday. Okay. So it will always be a Sunday roast. That's, I know probably Hundreds of your guests have said that

But I'm good at doing Sunday roast My roasts My roast potato, I've got a secret ingredient For my gravy I can't Oh, secret, but it does involve alcohol But it's not wine But sometimes you

Sherry Sometimes you serve the Sunday dinner naked Oh I can click native Oh Only because You know on the cusp Between winter and summer

Where you have to give up the roast dinners And turn it into a barbecue Yeah There's one Sunday. A lovely way like taking your clothes off making a Sunday roast is like something everyone does. You know that time where clothes have to come off as said no one ever. Go on.

It's true. And it's like how sort of May June where you think I can squeeze one more Sunday roast out and you've got everything down and my whole family moan about a Sunday roast but I make them have it. And then this one particular Sunday, it was boiling on. So I did just strip off and cook everything naked. My children see me naked all the time. I didn't eat naked.

Have you got girls? Yeah. Not boys? No. No, girls. I did worry. My husband enjoyed it. They were all in the garden.

Jesse, you've been naked all your life. Yeah, I understand. I like being naked. No. No, maybe it is. Yeah. I always don't mind being naked. I don't mind it.

Really easy, baby. Jesse. Yeah. So you would have a bath when everyone needs a wee. Well, my husband says that. My husband's having a shower and then I'm having a wee and it turns into a poo and he's like, why do you choose this moment? Because I feel so relaxed in front of you.

He's like, can you feel less relaxed? You've never peed in front of Ireland. I'm offended because you've never done that in front of me. How does that make me feel as your TV has been? Well, the amount of umbrellas you've held up across Europe. So I could have a pee behind them. Maybe I'll have a dump in the next season. It's something for everyone to afford.

Do you know where you're going there? You know, our dream is to do Japan because their birth rate is slowing down. Well, actually, I think it's going. And there's so many houses empty because they believe, also because of the rate and of everything, the birth rate, but also they believe that the ghost of their ancestors is in that house. So they have to be loyal to it. And if they move, then they're leaving their relatives behind. So when people leave a house, it's got, no, I don't want to move in there.

That's not my house, you know. So I think, but we're so busy. How can we film in Japan? But we took serious time off, spent a lot of time over there. But you're on heart. I've got all these other bits and bobs happening. What other bits and bobs are? Jesse, is this a dry house?

OK, now, listen, we go for the Pino Noir. I think you've instructed, yes, am I. I'm obsessed with Amanda. Right. met my match, mom. Yeah. Do you order for the table as well? Yes.

Because it's easier. I can't be doing with everyone doing their bits and bobs. I'm like, let's just, you're going to love this, have this. I can see, what's it? Amanda and Jessie's Japanese job. I'll be sitting, I mean, I know it as worryingly. I'm sitting there going, oh, watch a lot of it on,

or BBC. Oh, wow. We can sing the theme tune. Oh, my God. Yeah. But it's on theatre. Alan's like this. Tax it.

But also, I'm going on tour. Yes, I'm so good. No, no, I don't need it. Do you know what? Is it? Are you sold out? Oh, my God. It's sold out.

I weld up yesterday. You do have friends and family tickets, don't you? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Oh, God, yes. Oh, you'll come. I mean, I have to take some of the bits out about you, so it might be quite a short show. Oh, no, she is.

The human bagpipes of Menderham. And where you're playing in London? The Palladium. It's amazing. It's gorgeous. Congratulations. Oh, I know, I know. I'm buzzing.

How long is the tour there? It's a lot. It's a lot. You do have to park a lot of things and just concentrate on the tour because I've done it where I've done all the TV and the tour and you just this goes. And I've said this. And I know it goes over an hour and a half on stage. But my God, I'm nerves, adrenaline.

Of course. Can't sleep. You know. Is it the same tour manager, your friend? Elliot. Yeah, he'll be coming on tour with me. I love Elliot and stuff. You know, you said you whirled up.

Is it because you didn't believe that you could, I mean, because do you? Well, that people take the time and I know, like, money is time. Sorry. Fucking out. And as a performer, yay, the wine's open. What do you want now? Shall I taste it first, Alan, just to make sure it's all right. Well, just you're going to accept it anyway, but just pretend.

Is that, madam? How do you do you want to taste? An inch in the bottom, is that what you won't? We sniff it up. Make sure the corpus of going to funny. Would you like an inch in the bottom? Would you like an inch in the bottom? I love an inch in the bottom.

Okay, I never know how much an inch is. Oh gosh. No, I'd you on that website. Thank you. I want to talk. That website. It's a dating app. Don't make it.

kind of sexual deed. It's a terrifying. Thank you. This is delicious. We're not, we're not going to ignore the fact we're just talking about your talk because you're so self-deprecating.

It's really nice. Is this one of your favorite, no, no, I literally, I wanted a peanut because I wanted it to be synach of lunch time.

And I thought organic would be easier for us. I don't usually like peanut noir, but I like that. I like a Malbich. I like a body to it. I love a Malbec. I don't like a cabinette.

Oh, my love it. It's a bit in a pub and hate yourself. Hurry. Sorry. Can you just, I've got less than an inch in my bottom. Oh, we can't be having that. I could do it. You know.

Donnie, I could do it another inch. Oh my God. I love. Another inch. Come on, Lenny. I wish I'd never said that joke now. Even I'm blushing. I want more than an inch in my bottom.

Don't get it on your low, though. Don't get it on your low. We're talking about you at all. I'm not going to let you dive at. No, no, no. It's just costs a living crisis. Dda, da, da, da. But people are taking the time to buy.

and come and see you live, which is lovely. That's good. It's lovely. And what I'm pleased about is, and we've had this conversation, is that you're actually going to concentrate on one thing at once. I know, I know. Because we're the same in that we sort of, we do say no, but you say yes because you've got that mentality

because we're from working class backgrounds. You have to keep working, keep making the money, keep, I don't know, just keep going. And when we have a day off, I feel like, oh my God, and I clean out a wardrobe or a drawer and you do the same thing. And you feel like it's all going to end. if you've got a day off. Because that's what I was good for you

to have a full day and then go and do the show. And that's what I was going to say earlier with the champagne and me being serious for a little bit. You know, you do read in the media about, oh, you know, working class voices on tell yourself.

We are those people, but I'm not. I'm not. You've just been burping in it. People think I'm posh. They do think I'm posh. I went to a comprehensive in a tiny village. And my mum and dad, they all talk like that.

I went to, I lived to, in Hampshire in a small village called Bishop Swartham and the school was called Swanmore Secondary School. Let's talk about Alan. And I was in Northampton. We know that. Yeah, I know. Are we on the third series of changing?

Yeah, third series, yeah. It's just incredible. It's lovely. It's brilliant. It's brilliant. The boys BAFTA nominate and he won a Royal Television. It's amazing. Fabulous.

Isn't it funny? He came back and, you know, when you've written it and he is so tall. Voice is dropped. His voice sounds like me and on set he would be going, oh, I'll have a nice cup of tea in him. They didn't know if it was me or him. So this series three and four, which we filmed already,

he sounds just like me. He's got that biting point, you know, where my voice goes up and down and stuff like. It's when you go from your chest to your head, isn't it? Oh, well, absolutely, Amanda. Anyway, it was a story about me, but anyway, that's fine. Now, listen, I wasn't. I wonder how we do Last Supper, whether we combine,

or whether you are very decisive on what you would be your last supper. I can't remember what your last supper was because I was drunk last time we talked about this. But Alan, can you think about a last supper? Amanda. Start a Maine put drink of choice. I think I know the drink of drink. Drink would always just be the ruin art for all of it. And I like a prawn cocktail.

Yeah, I like a prawn cocktail. That's nice, prawn cocktail and lasagna for Maine. Lassania? Yeah, yeah. Why? It's layered. Like me. Like me, it's layered.

When you go to Italy, they don't eat lasagna, do they? You order lasagna in Italy and they look at you like, huh? Yeah. Can I just say for the record that my mum is a great cook because I said in another interview that Aunt Bessie was actually my real mum. Oh, it's a good gag. My mum went, oh, Aunt Bessie's here. I went, oh, you read the article.

So, Alan, what did your mum cook that was fabulous? My mum, hearty fare, lasagnas and stuff. That would also be a good dragline. Heartingette, Liz. Yeah, all like that. You know, spaghetti bolognades. Aetist child, you know what I mean? It was all of that.

And then when Cross and Blackwell, remember them? They brought out those sachets. I know. Went around the world. Oh, I remember having pasta for the first time. Exotic sauces. I remember my nan went to Greece

and then the whole family made Musaka. Because I became vegetarian. at 13. But before that I ate meat. But we had Musaka and that was like, oh my God, what is this? You'd never eat meat. No. So what do you have for you? Oh, no. I never do. What do you? I do a Linda McCartney country filled

pie. Oh, I just don't bother when I have millions of vegetables. Okay. And what would you cook for your family? Oh, I cook then meat. I stuffed her. I put my hands in a turkey. Yeah, my French. Cherry is a vegetarian. She, her family ruler and she stuffs the turkey. Anyone wants to eat, they'll have it at my house. I'm not precious. I'm not precious like that.

I'll cook it, eat it, you know, touch it, whatever you need. What did you do for New Year's Eve? We had the best ever saying. Oh, were you together? Yes. Oh, of course. Just Chris get a bit jealous. He did mention it a couple of times.

There was a funny moment where we had last Christmas. We didn't spend New Year's Eve together, but we spent that time in between, and we were going through Covent Garden. with her family. And then there's that gorgeous Christmas tree in Carl and Garden. She said, oh, let's have a photo. She threw the camera at Chris and me and her are like this with her children. But he's got such a good sense of you.

Chris is the funniest man alive. What does he do? He is a music producer and now a manager. He's brilliant, but he's very funny. He's very funny. And then we did a photo at New Year's Eve where she deliberately cut him out. We're holding hands and you just... And you can just see Chris's shoulder in the side of it.

I was like, me and my husband, oh, whoops, managed to cut it back. What, did you have a party? I mean, this sounds down. Last year, we decided to hire a castle. Yeah. Oh, between us. Because I love being in a castle. The traitors, yeah.

It was before all the traitors madness and everything else. It sounds really dead posh. There was 22 of us. Everyone chipped in. Everyone chipped in. We did Highland Games. We had a Cayley. We did the addressing of the hand.

But classic Amanda. Scotland is the place to be on New Year's in. Really? It's amazing. But classic Amanda, three days up there, and then she's like, Kaylee, disco. You know, organising, Highland Games, playing the bagpipes, wellie-wanging. She just had it all. And you know when you're a bit like, I just want like a downtime.

But, you know, it was so much fun. And I was good at tossing the cable. Yes, he tossed it. And it landed at 12 o'clock. And it's not how far you. you throw the caber, did you know that? It's whether it lands 12. Alan's caber always lands at 12.

Lans, mine did land at 12. Straight. Straightest thing about him. My caber. What is a caber actually? He's like a big log. And then poor old Lee, poor old Lee was getting a lot of grief from the Scottish man, weren't he? I know.

I bet you've heard your hands round a log like that before. Try and be straight like this. from Scotland, he wasn't normally. Oh, right. I don't know how I'd do that. But it was, I'm going to say, it was the best New Year's Eve

I've ever had. I'm going to say. Did you have music? Yes, we did Kaylee dancing. Oh, you didn't have like disco. And then we had a disco. You featured, you were on our playlist. Oh, sweet.

Thank you. Because we were all allowed to choose whatever we wanted, and in between they had this playlist that we'd curated. It was amazing. Yeah. This sounds great.

It was honestly the best. And then at midnight, they rang the bells and we went onto the turret and we watched all the fireworks across Edinburgh and the flag was flying in and just all really emotional and you go I love you Alan I love you again but I love you Alan we're definitely going to do again but the funny thing is

we are so can we have some fireworks and I think they sort of knew that we were like you know a bit so they made this excuse oh it's near the airport we can't I thought a Catherine wheel ain't going to bring down a jumbo jet love But I think, I think. You never know, don't write in.

No, I mean, I think they thought, oh, wow, way. But now it was just. And do you know what as well? January the 1st was just as fun. Oh, really? Yeah, we went to a restaurant there. We went to this restaurant. It was Scots, Scots down in Queens.

We should give them in Queensfury. And they opened for us. And again, we had dancing. Gorgeous food. Does Amanda organise this? You didn't organise. But I'm going to just give you a world exclusive. Oh.

We love. That I haven't even sent to Alan because I thought I don't have me want to wear it. Oh. But this is Alan. She's picked it for 2020. On New Year's Day singing with the entertainers. God. Alan's the deeper voice.

But then I can go up and down. It's bungee jumps. Isn't that fun? Look at that. Amazing. That is that. And I can't actually. I can't actually.

actually remember that. Are you ready for some pudding? Yeah. Right, okay. Well, this looks caloric, love. No, it doesn't. It's delicious and it's going to pep you up because it's a bit of coffee in there.

Oh, there you know. How do you make this? It's no churn cappuccino ice cream with Ferreira Roche. And to be honest, I need, I had so many Ferreira Roche from Christmas. It's been helpful. You are spoiling up. They are the best gift to get. I'm sorry, I love it.

I love for a rush. I'm like, wow. Or a Panatoni. I've got, somebody's getting panitone bread and butter pudding in a weekend. Yes, I'm going to do it. I've got a chocolate panatoni. Oh, that could be doing with that weekend. Exactly.

Right, let me just see, because I've had it out. Oh, for a fuck saying, it's always so fucking hard. I know. Bigger. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Can I say I think Terry's chocolate oranges are getting smaller.

I've said it. Oh. It should be Terry's chocolate sat so much. if you ask me. I've said it. Controversial. I know. Sorry.

I said what I said. Is that one of your favourites? I love it. But for me, even though I've got these teeth. Oh, match stick. I like a matchstick at Christmas. Matchmaker. Matchmaker, yeah.

Orange or Min. Min. Because mint, you don't really have to brush your teeth in the morning, do you? Don't try that at home, children. So, Alan, you might choose a prawn cocktail. I would, but I would also choose. Asparagus with Hollandeys. I really liked that

as a starter. Yeah. With an egg. I like anything with an egg on. Amanda, you're talking my language. An egg running into a salad or anything. I've had a sparragus with Hollandeas for 100 years. It's not, you don't get it.

It's very retro. It's retro, isn't it? Okay, so you've seen it and see it in like... It's Lesagna a bit too boring. No, I should say something out. It's relatable, I know. I want to be relatable. I'm...

I say the same thing. I go pasta pesto. Oh, really? That's boring. And you know, that you're going to be dead. Yeah, I fucking love. I love pasta pesto. Do you?

Fresh pesto. I make it at home, but I make it with broccoli. Oh. Which sounds a bit like I'm trying to sneak vegetables into my children's diet. Do you steam the broccoli? I steam the broccoli and then I whizz it up with loads of everything. And like a whole thing of parmesan and pine nuts and guise and guise and guise and guise. garlic and everything.

It is unbelievable. And I would want to be happy. And I would want the memories, I think it was my last meal. With those of shavings of pesto and a side of rocket, parmesan and a side of rocket. So is anyone going to want any more of this, by the way, otherwise I'm going to put it in the freezer. Do you want another spoonful?

Oh, I'll have one more spoon. I am as well. Well, you can have as much you want, by the way. Alan, when you're away, will you ring her? Will you check in while you're away on holiday? We will text. Yeah. When he's in Mexico, I will try and leave him alone.

Okay. But I will text or send him something funny. Okay. He might send me something stupid on the bill. Like, whatever he's up to, he might send me something feeling. He's going to send you lots of pictures of lesbians by the sound. I would have forward to that. I actually would love to go to a lesbian festival.

I don't know so much fun. Girls just want to have fun. I'm down there. I mean, it's going to be so much fun. I can't wait. And also, and I love CMA as well. She's amazing. Oh, the best.

I love Sam. They're so good. Yeah. What's I going to say then? but we have, because we are so indiscreet, me and Amanda, we have an unwritten rule that we never leave voice notes. In case. Because you never know it's going to get hooked up to or wires the system.

You know, we're some freak of nature where we've got gossip. I've got gossip. That's what we sort of say. And then we say it face to face because I can't trust a voice note. Or if you do. And you love a voice note. If Alan loves a voice note because he's in discreet. Sometimes I'll see that a voice notes come and I'll go,

I'm going to listen to us at home I'm going to take this home and I'll say to Alan I'm going to listen to this at home and then he'll go no it's okay you can listen to it and I'll go okay fine and it's just about But this is this is in the air I want to be on this fucking WhatsApp group

No but this is in that break on heart This is on like when I'm live on air Some like if I say If I dared to say to a producer I've got a voice note from Alan They're like let's do it next And I'm like So have you got any good gossip today

Alan's the one Actually I don't want to Where do you get your gloss from? I make it up It's the best It's organic In the industry

I told her everything He went I'm out I signed an NDA Oh my God Do you want to know or not and I went, I want to know, Alice.

Is there any one I told it to my mum and dad, my brother? I didn't speak and I love gossip when I didn't have to speak good. Because I was so terrified. I didn't want to get him into any trouble. No. Yeah. But yeah, yeah. Well, I had to offload.

It's so intense. No phone, no laptop. It's Claudia gorgeous. I love Claudia. We love Claudia. Both of us are obsessed with Claudia. But you know, in the castle, you know, she keeps herself to Which you have to because you can't.

And when you see, I shall give you a cheeky little smile. But it's not like, she's not going, oh, Alan, what, you know, how you're doing? How many days were you there? It's three weeks. Fuck on. I was there three weeks. And of course, my... I couldn't do it.

I couldn't do it. And I got... And I've got in my diary, you know, you got your diary. And I rang up my agent. I said, oh, you know, I'm doing traitors. You've got something in the first week on the first day. He went, well, you're going to be out. He said, you'll be out.

He said you're... Did you fire your fucking agent? You're Mr. Mottermouth. You ain't going to be in there with your fucking big mouth. You're going to be out. Like that. And then the dog walker looking after the dogs

I had to keep ringing up to say... Oh my God so. Sorry, can you just stay for another week? Because I just thought I'd be out. And then when I laughed on the steps and went, I am... My... I went home and packed

because I went, I'm going home tomorrow. And then I'm round the round table. Nick. Cam. What do I have to do? Stop being nice. Do you need a cup of tea now? I would love a cup of tea.

Do you want more alcohol? Yes. I'll have more alcohol and a cup of tea. I'll have two fingers. Two fingers. That's what I always say. Two fingers, darling. Is any of this usable?

Is any of this usable? My dad used to all say one. Did he? My time I used to say one finger of whiskey. Oh my God. I'm the only person I say two fingers. Everybody looks at me and I'm like, what? Because you're filthy.

Yeah, that's why they look at you. I want two fingers or two farmer's fingers. Are she serving up the Sunday roast naked? I love two fingers. Why are you looking at me? Two farmer's fingers. Two farmer's fingers. So when do you film Britain's Got Talent?

Is that in the summer? Oh, we've, no, we filmed it. It's in the bag. So we filmed it in October and all the auditions go. out in like March April and then the live show start in April for a month, six weeks.

Do you still love it? I'm not joking. It is, I mean, I'm going to say Amanda Allen's probably like my favourite gig. But Britain's Got Talent was the job that I think changed my entire life. And Simon

has been so loyal and sort of kept me there and it's going to be my 20th year. next year. My daughter's 20 now, but she turned one on the day that I got the job. And next year I will have done 20 years. And I said at the time, I literally was stirring

soup. I think Cheryl Cole dropped out. That's famous. She dropped out of it. I went, yeah, yeah. And I said to my husband Chris, oh, I said that would be three years. That'll be good for the mortgage, whatever. And then 20 years later, and you don't think anything's going to last 20 years. And is it the same panel with Bruno? It's changed. No,

So it's me and Simon and Alicia and KSI who is a YouTube person. Oh, the one who made the drink. I love you. I love KSI. Oh my God, I love him and I love his whole guy. Yes. Yes, the drink, the energy drink. I don't drink the energy drink.

He falls asleep all the time, so I don't think he drinks the energy drink. To be fair. But I bloody love him. Really? Yeah. And we went out. When we film everything in Blackpool now, I nearly cried.

It's such a family. It feels so family. I ordered some room service one night, and this lovely woman dropped it to me. And she went, God bless Amanda. And you know, my nan used to say that to me, and I was like that. That's not room service.

Is this your nan who liked having a sherry? Yes, Harvey's Bristol cream. And you have one every Sunday morning? On every Sunday, when I'm cooking the Sunday lunch. She takes all her clothes off, ready for the roast. I love it. It is a morning. drink. Can you see my Bristol cream?

My Bristol... What is it called Bristol City? Bristol City. Yeah, so I love a Harvey's Bristol cream. I don't like posh sherry. And over Christmas, the amount of pubs I went to with my husband. It's smoother. And I said, I really want a sweet sherry.

And they all just looked at me blankly. And I went, no, no, no, I don't want this posh Spanish thing. I don't want that. I don't want that. You want a Harvey's Bristol cream. And I invented a new drink over Christmas because I put Harvey's Bristol cream with ice. A finger. A finger of sherry.

Yeah. A finger of sherry is just dinner. Ice cubes and a slice of orange. Oh, wow. That is a game changer for Harvey's Bristol cream. What do you call it? Let's just call it two fingers. Two fingers.

Two fingers. That's what's so amazing about this podcast because food is emotional. isn't it? And that's why, you know, it's such a good idea. Well done. Well done, both of you. Thank you. It is. Because it evokes so many memories. And food is about how you feel. I don't like food where there's two bits of cucumber or a carrot and like someone spat on it.

You know, like the froth. I can't bear that. What is that froth? A few may. An emulsion. I bologues to that. It is like dribble. It's like, I'm looking up in the man's mouth like.

A sandwich and a tartar sauce and a load of mayonnaise. I don't care how it looks about how it makes me feel and what it tastes like. Or even how it's presented. Well, before I go, get the third bottle and the cup of tea. Maybe lose the tea. We're going large. Yeah, we're not diluting his... We're not going two fingers.

I'm throwing in a thumb. Jesse, have you noticed... Jesse, have you noticed the glasses of... I know, sorry. That's disgusting. That's disgusting. Oh. I'm scared Amanda.

Do you want the other bottle of champagne? Yeah. Have you got another Pino? Oh, God. I'll have any reds. Should we open your tray to red, Alan? Oh my God. No.

No. No. No, no, no. Don't worry. I always have an emergency bottle. I'm going to know. It was 1099. Hey, I'm not proud.

No, me to sit there. Where's it? It's made in Chili's Atacama. That'll do. Desert. Desert. Desert. Yeah, just opening.

After me saying it was well read. Yeah, there's me going, I always having my bonnet. I asked a wine expert once about screw tops, because people are very snobby about them. True tops doesn't mean anything. No, on my... I think they're helpful. I love them. Can I just say, on my new podcast, bottoms up, with lovely leap here, we speak about that.

You know, when a wine's disgusting and you take it back, you can, you can say to the sommelier, I don't like this and take it back. You're within your right. I've done that. I've done that. I've gone like four bottles before I've got to row. I'm like, give it. I just need to taste a bit more like labyna.

And they were literally like, you need to get out my. Do you know what? Do you like that? That's drinkable. The traitor, wine of chili. And do you know what some restaurants do? What? The second wine down is the one with the biggest markup

because they know no one picks the top one on the wine list. You're kidding. Listen to the bottom's out. You'll get hacks like this. Just a finger, Jesse. If I hear fingering one more time, I'm walking out or staying. That's nice. I don't want to be like on your podcast, but it's a little bit of tanning at the very end.

You're going nowhere near my bloody podcast. I don't think that's bad, actually. I think that is. It's a very reasonable price. Nostalgic taste that can transport you back somewhere happy or sad. Jelly. Yes. Angel Delight.

Okay. Which flavour? Chocolate. Oh no, no, no, no, the butter, butterscotch. Where are you having it, Alan? Lowick Court in Northampton. It was a treat after Sunday road. Yeah, yeah, Lowick Court, where, which is based on changing ends is based there.

Yeah, and I remember that summer doors being open and, yeah, just butter, and it was a real treat. Jelly, where are you? I'm at 17 Cunningham Avenue, Bishop's Warford. So this was I know This is a little village Like 10 miles from Winchester This is where I was brought up

And this was a housing estate Where Like I would play out on the streets So I heard my mum Bang a sauceman to come in for tea But on Sundays Our back gate was shut That's not a euphemism Alice

And we weren't allowed out Did I even look like Oh jeezes Our back door, our back gate was shut Because my mum said, you're not playing anywhere other than your back garden today Because it's disrespectful to the day But you don't want to be making a noise anywhere around Old school, loving it.

So sweet. And we used to have jelly, that was a treat, but we might have it like once a week. My mum might do it and I would see it. And she would let me, but I would have a cube of jelly raw to eat before she put it in a plastic jug and then added hot water. to it and set it. And that was it. Sometimes we'd put blamonge on the top of the jelly, Alan.

But it would be a strawberry blamange. And that was exotic in our house. Amanda and Alan, it has been better than I could have even anticipated. We have been so wanting you to together. You are welcome whenever you just need to let and stuff. Is this your first couple on the show? No. No, love.

No. No, but it could be our best. Oh, yes, I love. Oh, you're last. Well, I can tell you that's a cure for jet lab. That's a cure for a lot of things. Those two together are hysterical. Amanda Holden is filthy and fabulous.

She's such good fun. And we all know how we feel about Alan Carr. We adore him. Yeah. And them together, I don't feel like we've had this most debauched and kind of derailed episode of Tablemanors since maybe series one or two. No. It really feels like the old days. Does. Just one finger, darling.

Oh my God, I can't drink anymore. You had two fingers. That was the problem. I had more than two fingers, I tell you. Thank you to Alan Carr and Amanda Holden for a riotous Wednesday. That was very, very fun, as I knew it would be, but I loved it. And also the recipes that, yeah, I can't speak. I can't speak. Okay. The food was delicious.

Thank you, ma. Thank you. And it was all gorgeous and the best fun. We'll see you next week for. I'm also very young and then.
