So Gorka, you're in London at the minute. You're in the big city. Um, have you got a few days off in London or not? No, I have a few shows in London, not the day of. I wish I had a day off in London. No. Where are the shows? Uh, at the London Paladium.

Oh, nice. So, Gemma, yeah. Yeah. I have a lovely sofa here. It's like, you know, like the book of material, like Mia's, uh, chair. Yeah. And then I have someone here with me today. Who's...

Oh, there she is. Oh, I've got long arms on that, haven't it? Are my arms that long in real life? You are giving me a wink. I'm giving you a what? I think I'm going to take you with me on tour, you know? No, you're just giving me a wink. Oh, I thought you said I'd give you a wank.

Yeah, I wish. My arm in that thing, I look at... My arms looks amazing on that cardboard box, you know? Carbocut. Do you think? Yeah. Quite defined. We've not seen each other now for how many weeks?

Is it five? Six? I've lost count. I don't actually know. A month and three days. A month and three days. Wow. But I was saying, you know, yesterday,

because the team A was saying, we have been apart for a long time now. But that isn't that long for us, is it? It sounds long. Oh, no. We've done a lot longer, haven't we? Yes. Put it on perspective.

2020, COVID year, we've done the whole. strictly run from end of July. It was 86 days. To the week before Christmas. Yeah. Without seeing each other, not even like two meters apart for the whole run. Just face time.

So if we done that, we can get over anything. Yeah, because it was COVID. The strictly, you had to stay in your strictly bubbles. So even if Gorka had a day off or whatever, he wasn't allowed back home. We weren't allowed to visit. We only had Mia there, not Tiago. And we literally weren't allowed anywhere. near you, like you say, from mid-July

till the end of December. And it was about, I think it was about 86 days because I drew a little chart for Mia to cross the days off. Do you're like she was in prison? Because I remember on the first period you were allowed to come and see me like for the visits.

To be honest, it felt like a prison for the first because it was the period that we were doing the group numbers in the hotel, remember? Yeah. We were only like a lockdown hotel. And Sunday was the day off and it was the day we could have visits and they used to set up these tables

in the garden and you can only be suddenly one side of the table with each other, but you couldn't allow to touch or anything. It felt like a prison that you remember, I'm not driving all the way down to London for a 20 minutes visit with Mia and tell her she cannot touch her dad. It's brutal. That's like, no. I look back to that and think how laughable that is really, isn't it?

Like there's nothing in the air. You can sit on a table across and meet each other, but you can't touch each other. Cricky. But we got through that, like you say. But we go over there. Yeah. Well, before we get into the podcast, we've had more messages from our listeners. Oh, wait, before you move on to that? Yeah.

I said to you, I'm dancing at the London Playdium. How amazing is that? Is that where we came to watch you when you did it? Yeah, with me, yes, it's the same theater, yeah. The one with me, I was watching it when I talked about me and me, I was like waving, yeah. I'm not great with theaters in London. I don't really know London that much. I've spent so much time in London since I was 16 on and off for work.

I'm always there. I'm going to London next week for three days. However, I still do not know a lot about it. I don't do the touristy things. I just literally go hotel, work and home. So when it comes to the Palladium, I worked at the Noel Coward Theatre, which was apparently very good for theatre shows.

When it comes to the Palladium, is that the one for dance shows? No, the Palladium is the one for every. The palladium is like the iconic theatre. Put it in perspective, since Bruce Forsythead ashes are buried under the floor of the stage. What? Yes. Is that a fact? So Bruce Forsyth, yes, a fact that since Bruce Forsy's ashes, maybe not the whole, but a bit of the ashes of his Bruce Forsyte are buried under the stage of the London Paladium.

And there is like a silver, like a platinum, like a plaque. Like a plaque there. plaque there, the stage with his name and everything. Yeah, it's the stage where Jean Kelly, Fred Astaire performed. Many other artists, for example, Adel did her evening with Adele. There was live on television. He was at the Paladium. The Backstreet Boys, when they did the reunion tour, they performed at the London Paladium. It's that kind of venue. Oh, well, good for you then. High five for you being there. Yeah, yeah. Cricky, that is good. Yeah, no wonder you're chuffed about that. What can I say?

It's my farewell show, darling, at the London Paladion tonight. But anyway, let's move on and keep dancing. Yes, always keep dancing. I'm going to read a message we've had from a listener. You will like this, I think. One of them is to do with socks. But I'll read you this first one. This is from Tracy.

Thank you for getting in touch, Tracy. See, says, I can't speak. Thank you for getting in touch, Tracy. Thank you for getting in touch, Tracy. She says, hi, Gemma and Gawker. I just want to say I love the podcast and I look forward to hearing it every week. I love you, Gemma, but I must say I 100% agree with Gorka on the sock drawer situation. I can't imagine the chaos of having messy socks with a mismash of socks. I dilly carter all my drawers, including my kids and husbands.

The stress it would cause me is unreal. I absolutely love you both and your different opinions are what makes the podcast, or what makes a podcast for me. Please keep doing what you do and it always makes me smile. Love Tracy. That's kind of her. She loves the pod, but she agrees with you. Love you, Tracy. He's giving you the thumbs up, Tracy.

I think there is many people that grids with me. I don't know. A socks draw is just a sock drawer. It's just socks, isn't it? No, it's not a sock draw. Gemma, you know, a sock draw is a reflection of how life could be, you know, of that person. No. You need to like organize yourself.

have a bit more yet? Well, we've had another one about socks. This is from Helen and this is accompanied by some images. So this is quite interesting. She said, I've just watched the podcast and thought I'd share how I'm a bit of both of you. The photos are my neatly organized sock drawer and then the shoe mess at the back door. The shoes belong in the drawers next to them. So basically she's got a very organized sock drawer but there's chaos where the shoes are.

There's one, two, three, four, five pairs of shoes all, next to the shoe cupboard, so no one in the house have put the shoes away. See, gawks, it's not just us. Just you, you mean? My shoes, I don't like that. Is it making you panic that in the sock drawer from that picture, Helen's got coloured socks

with all the black socks? Is that making you panic a bit? No, no, no, that's... You'd be okay with that. Because the socks... Yeah, because the socks are folded. You can see them, you can get the... For me, the panic is when you try to get a sock,

but you cannot find the matching. sock because it's everywhere. Do you make sense? Like that, you know, they are together because they belong together. They are made for life like your lobsters, you know? Lobsters and socks are very similar. Lobsters are made for life because they are matching pairs. Sox are the same.

Treat the socks like lobsters, you treat. Jenny says, we listen to your podcast and radio show every day on the way to football or dancing. Oh, that's kind. Thank you. My daughter's dancing school in Essex, the Talents Theatre School in Wickford, has successfully qualified. for the Dance World Cup in Dublin in July.

This is a massive achievement for them. Oh, wow. We're all so proud. Would you be able to send them a little good luck message that I could send to them before we go, it would make their day and really give them a massive boost? Oh, Gorker, you'll have to do that for them. That's lovely.

Absolutely, we can, yeah. Go ahead and give your advice, and then I will ask my questions. I will give the message to the talent theatre school of Wickford. Good luck, congratulations. Keep dancing. and the most important, enjoy that day, because she will go very fast, and you got this. Come on. What advice would you give for Jenny's daughter?

Because it is a big deal. It's the World Cup. It's not like, oh, it's a little street competition. Just enjoy it. Did you get nervous when you used to do it? Yes, you get nervous always. I'll get nervous to now when I have to perform. And I've been doing it for like over 20 years, but that means that you care about it, you know?

There's nerves of like adrenaline and there's good nerves. and there's bad nebs. They're the ones that give you the panics attacks and the ones, you know, I can do this and run away. But just enjoy, you know, and have the best time. Because it goes very quick.

Like, it will go fast and then you will be like, oh, I didn't enjoy it, so enjoy it. The outcome, it doesn't matter. Just give your best and do the best you can. That's the most important thing. I think you have to dance

like no one's watching, even the judges. You have to just go for it and enjoy it. I'm giving this advice like I didn't crack myself every week on strictly before I danced. I used to absolutely shit my pants.

But you get to a stage where you think, I'm not bothered, you just got to dance. Everyone can dance. Everyone can move. But I hope it goes well. And yes, good luck to the Talents Theatre School in Wickford. Fingers crossed, you lift that trophy. So this is the part of the show now

where we both bring something that's annoyed us about each other in the week. But once again, we haven't seen each other for nearly five weeks. So there's nothing to be annoyed about. So Molly, our producer, has mixed it up a bit for us. I actually have something annoys me, to be honest, this week. I haven't even been there. What you're on about?

How can I know you? I've not even been seen you. I know how to be like, for example, in the mornings when I wake up. And I said, do you message me in the morning? I wake up in the morning. You haven't even messaged me. Say, good morning. How are you?

Yeah, because I don't want to wake you. Then when I have to message you the time to be like, my phone is on silence. I've wronged you this morning on the way to school. And I said to me, a papa might not be up. I said, but we'll try and ring him. And the first thing I said to you was, I'm so sorry if we woke here. And you said, don't worry,

my alarm was set for five minutes later anyway. Yeah, so that's fine. Have I annoyed you with my forms to sign? Yeah, which I haven't signed them. I know, you've not signed them because he's messaged me this morning. Listen, I'm not your PA. I'm not your personal assistant, yeah?

I've been signing documents for the last three weeks. Yeah, I know, but these are very, very important ones. Just learn to do it. My signature ain't on. I've not got a laptop. I use your old one. Signature's not on there. He's messaged me this morning.

Please, Gemma, I need these signed. I said to him, Gawker's doing it. And then I thought, shit, he's not done it. You know how simple it is. You messaged the person that you send you the documents and then him, excuse me. Might you send me these documents in docus sign, please? I don't know what docus sign is. It's a good job.

We're in separate rooms because I would swipe that smirk off your face. It's okay. No wonder why people say you're so aggressive to me. All it is Goker. If I could, I would rather. drive to Liverpool and physically sign them with a pen in his office myself, then have to download it and sign and all that, because I can't do that. I'm going to tell you what you need to do, so then you know what you need to do. You message the person and tell them, hi, could you

please send me the documents on the DocuSign app, yeah? Then you go, get a link, an email says from DocuSign, hi, you have documents to sign. You don't need to have even the app. You just click on the link. It will open the website, yeah? And you will scroll down. and it will say sign document. You take the box, yeah? It will later a box will put your full name, click next, and then we say sign. And when your little finger, you just go like this

and put like, Jemma, Atkinson, sign in, finish, send. You send the document and you get a confirmation email with the document signed to have proof that you signed it. Finito. It's as simple as that. Take you three minutes to do it, yeah? It's fine. Don't worry.

I've only been sliced open twice to deliver your babies, but hey, don't worry about signing my documents. I'll send your documents already 12 times. I know, I just need two more, 14 and it's done. Let's move on to the part of the show, like we said. We've not been around each other to have debates. So we're going to talk about dead quickly. Was there anything or what was the one thing that weirded you out when we first got together?

I've got something that weirded me out about you when we first got together. Just one. Mine, just one. Mine was watching you eat octopus when we went on a holiday. It made me feel gross because you talked about how you like it. And I said, you can't eat an octopus. It's got three hearts. It's got a massive brain.

And you were like, yeah, boy, it tastes so good, yeah, ma. What do you think I'm so smart? But you ate it, but you popped out the tentacle of this little octopus and sucked it up. And I remember watching you eat it, thinking, oh, gosh, that's awful. And it waded me out. You just made me now, wanted to have octopus for dinner or lunch. So I need to find somewhere to have octopus. Ooh, a grilled octopus with a mass potato, olive oil and paprika.

That's what you had. Do you remember when I tried to buy them lobsters and set them free? And they wouldn't let me. Yeah, then you were different socks. There was two or three lobsters in a tank, and I tried to buy them. And I said, I'm going to put them in the ocean. He was like, no, they're only for being served in the restaurant. and I was like, no, I'm going to put him in a bucket and take them to the ocean.

It didn't go down very well. I don't really have something that gives me that, to be honest. I have a few, but there are no things that you can say publicly. Oh, well, that's good then. That means that I'm flawless and nothing about me weirded you out when we met. Yes, you know them about it because I tell you the time, but I don't think it will be a nice thing to say publicly about you. Oh, I don't know it then, but no, if you don't think,

it's nice, it must be awful, because you're, you're not asked about being snide. So it must be really bad. I'm not, no, it's not really bad. Is it that I can pick things up with my feet? No, that's fine. Oh well, there we go then. Thank you very much. I'm just, I'm just flawless. I will tell you later. If anyone, if anyone else has anything that weirded them out about their partners, please do get in touch and let us know. It's lost in translation at bowenedia.com.com.

right it's time to solve a dilemma now as we always do but before we do we've had a follow-up message from Jen. So do you remember Jen Gawker? She had the Spanish, well she has the Spanish husband, who now sounds a little bit scouse. Yes.

And she was the one who was worried that a daughter won't feel at home anywhere if they moved to Barcelona. Thank you for replying to my message on the pod. It made me quite emotional knowing someone else understands how we feel. It's so true that experience in a different culture makes you more open-minded, and you are so right about our family will be fine wherever we live. Our daughter's already got a good relationship with a family in Spain

and our own little friend group with our friends' kids, something we don't have here in the UK. You are right about the cattle and bread gawker. The closest we have found in the UK is Jason's White Sourdough, by the way. I would love to see you guys doing a live show. Lots of love, Jen. Ooh. Well, you know what?

There is breads. Like, if you go to life, for example, like, depends where they live, but they go to a proper, like, you know, like artisan bakery, they will find their bread similar to the one in there. Better than Jason's one. You'd have been proud of me the other day. I didn't make bread, but I did make flapjacks.

They're in the freezer. I made myself some flapjacks. It's so nice. Are you trying to tell me that you don't need me anymore? No, I can make my own flapjacks. Thank you for getting in touch, though, Jen. The dilemma this week, the actual dilemma, so the dilemma we had from Jen has been resolved.

Jen has just thanked us. This week's is from Sarah, and she says, Hi, guys, I have a strange dilemma for you. My partner is giving me too many gifts. I understand that it's his love language and I'm grateful because a lot of... Like you. I'm still waiting my birthday gift. I understand it's his love language and I'm grateful because a lot of girlfriends don't get any gifts at all. But it's getting a bit much.

At first they were really cute but now it's getting to the point where I don't have any more space. It's anything from a photographic mug, cheeky key ring, custom mementos or anything he's seen that reminds him of us. Oh, it's a new gift pretty much every time. we meet and I see him a couple of times a week and I have done this for three months. I feel really, really bad because I do love them and I love the thought behind it, but there's now just too many and I need to get rid of some. It's not also how I show affection, so it's a bit alien to me. I want to sell them, but he's following me and vinted, so I can't even do that.

What should I do? Do you know what? I'd be the same, Sarah, because when something's done so many times, it loses its value. Yeah. That's for me. I'd have to say to him, no, stop buying me shit, I don't need. I don't need another key ring, please. It's more value if it's just done every now and again,

as opposed to being done every single week. And if he's doing two or three a week, that is a bit much, isn't it? But he might feel, because he's started that, he has to keep the ball rolling. How would you tell someone, Gorts, to stop buying your gifts all the time? I will tell him that. I don't, it's like, it's like, really, I really appreciate it, but you don't need to keep doing this. I don't really need the gifts.

Like, I'd rather, for example, if I don't have a material gift, just take me for a coffee or take me for breakfast or for dinner, you know? Or just don't do it. Just sometimes don't do nothing. Just give me a hug. Yeah, it does lose value, though.

I'd rather have a hug from you than three marks. Yeah, of course. I would from you. I've never been fussed about material things, ever. I always, like, I don't know. I've always said to you for Christmas Before we had kids

We never really did Christmas presents We just used to book a holiday in January together Didn't we and go 50-50 on it Because aren't we say the memories together on a holiday Are better than just a gift at Christmas Saying that note I'm still waiting for my birthday gift, yeah? Yeah

My advice Sarah would just be Just be honest with them And just say You're spending a lot of money On things that I really don't need So rather than do that and waste my time pretending to be surprised every time I open a damn cup or key ring, why not just save your pennies and we'll do something nice, like once every three months. But also he might have come from a relationship where he was expected to buy gifts.

Could be, yeah, true, yeah. One of my nephews, they're both gorgeous, aren't they to look at? I mean, whenever I post a picture of my nephews, that my female followers go wild for them. And Arduino. But one of them is single because he said to me, Arduino fancies him, don't he? But he said to me, he said, these girls, he said, do you just want me to buy stuff for them?

And I was like, what do you mean? Buy what? And he said, like, these really, like, £1,000 bags and really expensive bags, he said, and, you know what I mean? I don't want to. And they both done very well for themselves. They both, you know, they do exceptionally well.

But like he said, I ain't going to spend thousands of pounds on a bag for someone. who were barely in oh I was like I do not blame you don't be buying nothing like that for them and that's why he chooses to be single yeah I agree we were on a we were on a shoot the other day me and Ryan and he had he said you'd actually love it it was this new it was like um Chanel not Chanel or something what's them bags that they all have is it Hermes hermes hermes like a leather bag burking burking that was it a burking barkeen yeah and he had one They were talking about one. And Sarah, the makeup artist, her cousin got picked to have this exceptional bag or something

because she'd been a member of this bag place. And it was worth about $8,000, this bag. I won't mind it. It weren't even that nice. It's a birkin bag from Hermes. You can buy it, but to buy it, you need to first register and you need to apply on the list. That was it, yeah. Like, you need to be on an awaiting list and until this is not your turn.

you will never have it, so you have to be waiting, even if you have the money to buy it. But yeah, the normal ones, the little ones is $8,000 and then the normal one is like $16 to like 22. Well, they were all going wild for this bag on the shoot saying how amazing it was. And I said to Ryan, there's no way on earth that I would spend that on a bag. And he went to me, he said, well, what's your limit doll? And I said, on a handbag that I'm literally going to carry around 65 quid, that's it. And he went, oh, Gem. He said, Gem, you're not going to get a nice bag for that.

And he was really like, he said I will, and I'm, so I'm, I said to him, I will prove it to you. So by the time I see Ryan next, I've got to take a handbag less than 65 quid and prove to him that it's nice. That's what he set me that challenge. To be honest, you don't really use handbags. You always are with like the backpack or you're like a tote bag. Yeah, I use the rucksack. I'm Tomb Raider. Because you like tote bags.

to go to work and put all your things in there, I got your one tote bag that is nice. What, that you've got there and you've not given me yet? When I went to New York, yeah, Gemma, I wanted to buy this tote bag because I saw it, and it's like, it was going like a vital thing or whatever. And it's from Trade Jones. It's the supermarket, like grocery store, yeah?

And it costs you £2.50. But apparently people is selling them in eBay now in the UK, because you can't get it in the UK. People is selling them for like £3,000. Oh, for God's sake. In Japan, people is paying like up to like $10,000. dollars for this 250 pound tote bag just because someone wear it famous and go viral in in TikTok and all of this. I wanted to buy one to have for us, but I couldn't find it because she

was sold out everywhere. So Alexis lives in LA. So I said, can you check if in LA you have them? Because in the ones in New York they didn't have them, she was like, yeah, let me check. So she checked and she brought it to us. So she brought one for me, I want for you, one for me. Nice. So it's me as she's pink and white. And then we had the blue. and the original one so you can have it. I can show it to you. It's very nice to have it here. I ain't paying thousands for it.

Oh, no, no. I didn't have to pay it. She just gave it to me. She was just fine, buy me a coffee. Oh, that's nice of her. Thank you, Alexis. Let's have a lot. I'll show you, because you have, like,

it's very big, you have pockets. Look, this is the one that I'm using now. You see? And people are paying thousands of pounds for that? Yeah, but I think, because you know, like, when you see someone like highly Bieber walking with it from after their thing? Yeah.

It looks like a beach bag. Like we could put our flip flops and towel in that in Tenerife. Yes, because it's a thick material. That's what I got. It has the little pockets. You can put your sun cream on one side, your phone in the other. Inside is spacious. That's what I'm carrying for the show with my roller,

my drinks for the electrolytes, my clothes for getting changed, everything, my camera, everything goes in there. And it's very handy. I'll stick for now. I mean, I'll use that when you come home. But until you come home, I'll stick to my Lara Croft Rucksack. I'm a two-strap warrior, me. Nice.

But thank you for your dilemma, Sarah. And yeah, you've just got to be honest with him. Explain it doesn't matter. You can do other things to make you feel happy and loved and cared for. But thank you, as always, for getting in touch. Should we do this week's game? So the game we've been given this week, and we genuinely don't see the games until we get given them.

Moll our producer comes up with them. And if any of you guys come up with any game ideas, please do share them with us. And because I'm in Manchester and Gorkers in London, there's a quiz about where these famous inventions, famous things come from, up north or down south. I might not get all of them right, you know.

It's just up north or down south? Yeah. Eccles cake. South? No. Eccles cake is here, Lancashire. I don't know what is it. You'd like Eccles cake?

Probably not. It's funny, though, he cakes. You like banana, bread and I think that's about it, isn't it? Yeah. Jellied eels. South. I'd say south as well for jellied eels.

What's that? It's an eel in jelly, like a jellid eel. They come in like a jar, I think, with like a jelly fat thing in them. You eat eel. Do you eat eels though? No. I love how you say no, disgusted,

but yeah, you'd suck an octopus tentacle. Like, that's not gross. I didn't suck it, I'll eat it I'll sack something else But I go home Oh Pims I don't know why it's Pims

Gotta be down south hasn't it? It's a posh drink Is Pims from down south Mall? Yeah What's Pims? It's a drink It's a posh drink Pims Jimma I only dream water

No you don't You drink water a smooth G in Cafetron Um Okay you've got to get this one A Scotch egg Where's a Scotch egg from Surely you know that A Scottish egg is the egg that is being like a breadcrown or something like that.

That is quite posh, I think. So, or maybe Scotland, I don't know, but I think it's probably down south. Well, in that case, it'd be called a London egg. A Scotch egg is from Scotland. Oh, he's down south. I'm wrong. Scotch, no Scotland, Gemma. Scotch is a very different word than Scotland. Scotch, it means something that's like Scotch.

Smoke salmon, that's got to be southern. hasn't it? Smoke salmon. Really? I thought it was from like the Norway and stuff like that. Smok salmon. Vimpto. I'd say that's from up north. You mean vintet.

Vimpto, the drink. You used to drink it and give you a purple stain around your mouth. No idea. No, I was never allowed Vimpto growing up. It was banned in our house. Bourbon biscuits, that must be the north, no? A bourbon, yeah. You know what a bourbon is, don't you?

It's like a rectangular custard cream but chocolate. So the custard creams are square and white, the bourbons are brown and long. But the bourbon is the alcohol, no? You can get bourbon alcohol, yeah, but bourbon, it's not in the biscuit. Ah, okay. Golden syrup. Ooh, Lyles golden syrup. In north?

I'd say syrup's from up north, yeah. Oh, it's down south, we're wrong on that one. Ooh. Uncle Joe's mint balls. You know, the Uncle Joe has mint balls. Mint's, oh. Uncle Joe's mint balls. I've never heard of Uncle Joe's mint balls.

So it's just going to, I'm going to guess Uncle Joe sounds a friendly, a friendly northern man. I'm going to go with North. Is that correct, Moll? Yay. Uncle Joe sounds nice, doesn't he? And Maltloaf, that's northern. I think it's south, southern Maltloaf, isn't it?

Where's it from? Oh, it's north, you're right, Gorks. Maltloaf is Trafford Park. It was produced, it was produced in Trafford Park. Manchester, bit of soren. There you go. Oh, well, we've learnt, well, I've learned a lot then. And I apologise profusely for my Scotch egg mix up.

I genuinely thought Scotch egg was because it was Scottish. I thought it was a post-in, because that's what Gordon Ramsey makes it sometimes on his restaurant and breakfast. Process meat, right round an egg? How can that be posh? Yeah, but it's fancy thing that they do around there, yeah, I don't know. I don't know. Well, on that Scotch egg debate, that's all we've got time for.
