Good morrow to you.
What?
Good morrow to you.
Why are you doing that?
For the morrow.
For the morrow.
Yep.
Do you know what that means?
Yes, I do actually.
What's the morrow?
I'm Ray Peacock, hello.
Hello, I'm Ed Gamble.
What's the morrow? I'm Ray Peacock, hello. Hello, I'm Ed Gamble. What's the morrow?
I thought you would have forgot.
The morrow is a little creature.
Is it?
Lives under a bridge.
Right.
It's not a troll, so I don't want you to get mixed up with that.
No, I wouldn't say that.
That would be racist.
It's not the same thing.
It's a little creature.
Lives under a bridge.
A morrow.
A morrow.
And they are afraid of the light, but they also need the light to survive.
It's a very, very complex part of the ecosystem.
A lot of them die, do they?
A lot of them do die from lack of light because they're afraid of it.
I suppose only the bravest survive then.
Well, when they mature, the fear of light goes away.
So when the children, when the little morrows, the fear of light is very, very prominent.
But when they mature, the fear of light goes away.
So what often happens in the morrow community
is the mummy morrow or the daddy morrow, the mature ones,
will grab the little morrow by the scruff of the neck.
And the little morrow's going,
no, no, no, I don't like it, I don't like it.
They speak English.
I don't like it, I don't like it.
Drag them out into the sun, right?
Boost them up again, a bit like Superman.
Chucks them back under the bridge.
And then they're good for 48 hours.
They're good for 48 hours.
That's a morrow.
That's a morrow.
Well, good morrow to you
good morrow to you as well
thank you
that's lovely
how are you feeling today
at Gamble?
I'm alright
I'm enjoying myself
I'm having a nice fringe
do you want to speak about
the lady falling asleep
in our show?
you know what
I don't really
I don't really
look a woman fell asleep
in our show
right in the middle
right
she was sat right in the middle
it wasn't in the middle
of our show
she fell asleep
from the beginning
right in our eyeline.
Although we don't normally look at people,
but I just noticed during a bit where there's a lighting change
and then there's some slower music comes on,
I thought, there's a woman asleep there.
I didn't see it until about ten minutes in the end.
Yeah, and she was asleep all that time.
God, that's unbelievable, mate.
Yeah.
I thought it just recently happened and we make a joke about it,
which we did.
No, no, no, no, no.
And then you broke it to me on the stage.
You've been asleep from the off.
Yeah.
She, I mean, incredible. Yeah, didn't. And then you broke it to me on the stage. You've been asleep from the off. Yeah. She, I mean, incredible.
Yeah, didn't you?
It is the loudest show on the fringe.
And obviously she looks very embarrassed when she wakes up.
Yeah.
She didn't.
Yeah.
She looked like, she's like, yeah, well, have a sleep.
I mean, I'm so angry about that woman that I didn't pick you up there on your use of
the phrase when she woke up.
Yeah, woke up.
Yeah.
Yeah.
And I said, I said during the show that I was actually genuinely disappointed
that she wasn't dead
yeah
because when she woke up
I was like alright
well then that just
is depressing
yeah
but if she had been dead
brilliant publicity
yeah
killed a woman
woman dies
beginning of Peacock
and Gamble show
that's not to say
that I don't
performers don't notice
it's not to say
that I don't
you know
that I'd be overly
heartbroken
if she did die tonight
well she might die
in another show
yeah she could do
couldn't she
yeah
and they'll get
all the publicity.
God I hated that woman.
Yeah so there's the
downside to it but on
the upside got some
free tomato sauce
tonight.
Yeah he nicked some
tomato sauce.
Yeah and you've been
a bit sort of testy
about it haven't you?
About stealing yeah.
It's not really stealing.
You know what I'm
like that about the
theft.
It's not a theft mate.
It's not a theft.
It is?
It's not.
They were charging
a fortune for their
food.
You can't justify
things like that.
They had seven
bottles. Don't buy the food then if you think they're charging They had seven bottles of tomato sauce there. Your is? It's not. They were charging a fortune for their food. You can't justify things like that. They had seven bottles.
Don't buy the food then if you think they're charging too much.
They had seven bottles of tomato sauce there.
Your morals are very skewed.
I've been trying to get tomato sauce, that's true.
Yeah.
And there doesn't seem to be any in Edinburgh at the moment.
Yeah, no, there's none in Edinburgh.
I'm sure there is somewhere, but I've not found it.
No, well, yeah, you've obviously not been looking, mate.
Right, but do you know what it is?
It's because all these little stalls are buying up all the tomato sauce and having seven bottles.
Yeah, yeah, you're sort of like Robin Hood in a way,
you're sort of a
condiment Robin Hood.
Yeah, I am,
so I took the
tomato sauce.
What's your issue
with it?
Stealing.
It's not stealing.
It is.
It's not.
That tomato sauce
is there to be used.
Yeah, to be used,
not taking the whole
bottle, it's there
for everyone to use.
I want to use it.
So now someone
goes along and
they want to put
some tomato sauce
in this bottle.
You want to do
the six bottles?
No, mate,
that's, that's,
well, no,
because what if
another prick comes
along and goes,
oh, I'm having that. Right, there's still five bottles bottles? No, mate, that's, that's, well, no, because what if another prick comes along and goes, oh, I'm having that.
Right, there's still five bottles left.
No, if it keeps happening,
there might be,
there's, conceivably,
there's seven people
who are as big a bellend
as you out and about.
Right, listen, listen.
Four, three, two, one.
Behind the counter,
hang on, we're low on tomato sauce.
Wipe another five out.
Well, you don't know what they've got?
They've got loads of tomato sauce
from town.
You can't, mate,
at the heart of it,
you can't justify that you've stolen a bottle of tomato sauce.
Okay.
Alright then.
Go on then.
What's on the side in our kitchen at the moment?
What's on the...
On the side in our kitchen at the moment?
A bottle of tomato sauce that you've stolen.
What else?
I don't know.
I'll tell you what else is there.
Yeah.
A shitload of biscuits.
Yeah.
A shitload of biscuits, mate.
Yeah, that were there to be taken.
How did we acquire those biscuits?
They were on a rider for something we were filming,
so they were there for the talent.
For the entire crew?
It wasn't for the talent, it was for the crew.
They said at the end, take as much as you want.
But if I'd have gone over...
So that's exactly what happened.
If I'd have gone over at that storage now and said,
how much of this tomato sauce can I have?
I should have gone, have as much as you want.
Yeah, but don't take the bottle.
But don't take the bottle.
She wouldn't have said that.
She wouldn't have said that.
If you'd said, can I take the bottle away with me?
She would have said,
no, you can't.
Because that's for the customer.
They're quite friendly in Scotland.
They'd make that,
ah, go on hen.
They wouldn't make that.
Go on hen, take it.
You at no point now have justified
stealing a bottle of tomato salad.
I totally have.
I totally have.
You stole a load of biscuits today.
I didn't steal a load of biscuits.
They said take as many as you want.
And you stole,
but you were in the process of stealing them.
They were for us to eat. They were a rider. They were for the crew. They were for everyone. And they said at the end, the day's finished, take as many as you want. And you stole... But you were in the process of stealing them. They were for us to eat.
They were a rider.
They were for the crew.
They were for everyone.
And they said, at the end,
the day's finished, take as many as you want.
Tomorrow, that crew will go in and they'll go,
where the hell are our...
And you also...
You took the biscuits as well.
No, but I'm not the one trying to defend it.
I'm not...
I'm not...
No, no, I am the one trying to defend it.
I'm not the one attacking it.
I don't have to defend it.
I don't have to defend that decision.
You're a thief, mate.
You're a biscuit thief.
I'm not, because they were...
I'm not a biscuit thief.
Poo, poo-pan leverer.
That's what you're known as now.
Biscuit thief and poo-pan.
It amazes me how pathetic...
Poo-pan?
...and immature you are sometimes.
We'll quickly go back and think of something new.
But that's true, though.
Leaving you in shitty pants in a public convenience.
How's that all right?
But we're not talking about that!
I know, but we're not.
I've just...
You've brought this up!
I've borrowed a little bit of tomato sauce!
You've borrowed it, have you? Are you taking the bottle back?
I might do, one day, you never know.
You take it back tomorrow?
No.
We're going- we're going down there tomorrow, we're taking it back.
Please don't march me down there!
We're going down there, and yours are gonna say, I'm really sorry, here it is back.
I'm not doing that.
Fine, you can go down anonymously and put it in as an amnesty.
But what if then they see me doing it and they're like, it's alright, we've got plenty.
Why- why are you giving us tomato sauce
charity?
First as soon as
you've worked up
tomorrow morning
you're going to
take the bottle of
tomato sauce back
down.
Right this is what
I will agree with.
No you're a
criminal.
If in the newspapers
I do not negotiate
with terrorists.
If in the newspapers
right tomorrow they
say there's some
tomato sauce missing
and we're trying to
find the culprit at
the moment.
Well I'd imagine
they'll bring it up
in the papers because
apparently there's a shortage of tomato sauce in Edinburgh. Exactly Maze you've got a dog eat the culprit at the moment. There's a drawing on it. I'd imagine they'll bring it up in the papers, because apparently there's a shortage of tomato sauce in Edinburgh.
Exactly, mate.
You've got dog-eat-dog here at the moment.
It's dog-eat-dog.
Yeah, it's dog-eat-dog.
Yeah, it's hot dog-eat-hot dog with no tomato sauce,
because he nicked it all.
Mate, if I get the tomato sauce and someone else doesn't,
then I'll look, mate, I got the tomato sauce.
All right, yeah.
All right, that's the way of the world.
The terrible apocalypse film.
So today's our guest, Daniel Sloss.
Daniel Sloss.
Daniel Sloss.
Now he misbehaves.
He does misbehave.
He's a naughty boy.
But he is a very, very naughty boy indeed, actually.
Yeah, in fact, I think you should be hanging out with that Daniel Sloss
because he's clearly influenced you in a bad way.
I think he has a bad influence on me as well.
And also, you won't be able to see this in the interview, obviously,
because it's audio, but through a lot of it,
I think he wanted to go toilet because he was held in his willy for ages.
But that's what you get with young lads
I think it was too
embarrassed to ask
you get obsessed with
touching it when you
really aren't
playing on it
all the time
all the holes in
walls
plays the willy
banjo a bit
yeah plays the
willy banjo
strong as his
willy banjo
our show is
Heart Rob's
9.45pm Pleasant's
Courtyard
but look if you
feel like you want
to go to bed rather than come and see it do don't cometyard but look if you feel like you want to go to bed
rather than come and see it
do
don't come and see it
if you're feeling sleepy
don't bother
so so far
issues banned from our show
people who think
that you can come in late
with a drink
yeah fuck them
just have your drink
stay outside
sleepy people
people who think
I'm so sleepy
I might fall asleep in the show
despite it being really loud
yeah
and dicks
and dicks yeah no dicks in the show and do you really loud. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. And dicks.
And dicks.
Yeah.
No dicks in the show.
Yeah.
And do you know what?
If you're a fan of us by the way.
Yeah.
We love that.
I think it's great.
Please don't be afraid of us when we're on the stage.
No it's fine. Just enjoy it.
Just enjoy it.
Meet us half way if you want.
No good sitting there with your mouth open.
In fact just none of you fucking come alright.
There's one way of doing it.
Yeah.
Just fuck it up.
Then we don't have to do it alright.
Yeah.
Nothing worse than seeing people not laugh all the way through then signing an autograph
for them
ah
here's another one
Daniel Sloss
little human lad
Peacock and Gamble
Peacock and Gamble
I laughed my fucking
ass off at the
Ramesh one
was one of those
things
yeah it was
it was really good
wasn't it
it was so funny
but I think people
genuinely don't realise
it wasn't
as it seemed
it wasn't
outright racism.
It was the thing you had with your friends.
It was more racist back, I felt.
What I get the same way with my gay friends
is to my gay friends, I am
horribly homophobic just to their face.
I'm just going to stop you there straight away.
You're what friends?
Oh dear.
Oh, not close friends, obviously.
Who are your gay friends
that you've got
who are all your
well I know
Craig Hill
Craig Hill
he's gay
he's a gay lord
he is isn't he mate
yeah but he hides it
so is that known
I would say
for me to out him
I think he's very
solid
Craig may be gay
may not be gay
we don't know
whether publicly
Craig is gay or not
he keeps it quiet on his posters if he is.
His posters are quite classy, aren't they?
Yeah, but based on people's posters, you would also immediately assume that Craig Humphries was gay.
Yeah, that's true.
And I can say that because he's my flatmate.
Is Craig Humphries your flatmate?
Yeah, he's my flatmate.
That's nice.
No, it's not.
We're all friends together.
One of Craig's posters last year, it was the first poster graffiti we saw before the Fringe had even started.
I don't really agree with poster graffiti.
There's been quite an increase in that this year, we think.
No, but it was a make.
It was genuinely so blunt
that it made us scream with laughter.
I can't remember what the show was last year.
It was Craig in a kilt.
It was Craig in a kilt.
It was a typical sort of...
Why don't you come down the front, I think it was.
It was something like that.
Just typical sort of camp over the top.
And someone had just, in massive black letters,
written,
no.
Just like,
no, I'm not.
No, exclamation mark.
No.
Not having that.
No.
I like seeing the graffiti.
I've seen some stuff of mine,
but I'm always disappointed
because it's never good on mine.
It's just,
it's always a knob on the head.
Yeah, what do you get?
Because the graffiti this year,
the most graffitied poster I've seen
is probably Kane,
Russ Kane.
Oh, I've seen a few
on the Lee Nelson ones.
Yes, actually,
there's quite a few
on the Lee Nelson ones as well.
And Ramsay.
And Ramsay, yeah.
And I guess Sterling
a little less,
Ian Sterling.
Yeah, yeah.
It's normally the young,
good-looking lads, isn't it?
Yeah.
Generally speaking,
or the more popular comics.
Or the older,
or the older good-looking lads. Yeah, generally speaking or the more popular comics or the older
good looking lads
yeah
like Lee Nelson
yeah
so I suppose
it's actually
a comment on popularity
yeah
is what it is
I think maybe
the reason I don't have
that much this year
is because most
of my poster is black
most of them are
on the side of buses
so people can be
bothered to run
what did you get
so it's just
knobs on your head knobs on your head
knobs on your head
you've got
you're holding a microphone
so you can turn that
into a knob quite easily
yeah but it's
it's dead black
like it was
the only place you can really
draw a knob
on my face
I just don't like that
when comedians hold
no but I've got a caveat
for that
I know what you're going to say
it's a live
it's a live photo
yeah that was
yeah that was a live show
but the reason I did it
is because for the past three years
my posters have just been child porn.
Right.
And I wanted to...
Because I've not done jokes about my age
since I was like 19,
but it is something that every year...
How old are you now?
22.
22?
You're all grown up now, aren't you?
I'm a dad now.
Little Daniel Sloss has grown up all big now.
Shaved last week.
And I saw when you stretched a minute ago,
you had hair sticking out of your t-shirt.
Peacock and Gamble, Peacock and Gamble.
Your age was kind of when you first sort of broke through,
when you first started doing comedy.
Your age was a thing, wasn't it?
I mean, that obviously must have been a decision on your part.
Yeah.
I mean, I mentioned it, like,
I think I had about five minutes at the start of my show
or like when i was doing 10 minute spots i referenced my age a lot but that's because it
was a one of those things that you should sort of mention it was the standard thing you go on stage
and you talk about yourselves but then i used to get very annoyed with people going oh you're still
doing jokes but being young i'm like well no there's about seven minutes in an hour show about
being young and you don't get annoyed at you know fat comics for twin jokes would be fat
female comics for
twin jokes would
be female

what what what what what what what what what what what what what what I think you're putting words in my mouth now. Well, no, I just can't remember. That's all I'm saying.
It's not that sort of podcast.
Right, okay.
It's just a nice chat.
Oh, yeah, it's a lovely chat.
You can ask me all confrontational straight off the bat.
All right?
Can I just say, everyone, before we started recording,
Ray said, I'm going to be confrontational.
It's the exact phrase he used about himself.
But I'm trying a different way of doing it.
I'm trying to be, like, passive-aggressive. Oh, so you're turning me into the bad guy. I'm trying a different way of doing it. I'm trying to be passive aggressive.
Oh, so you're turning me into the bad guy.
I'm just seeing if it works.
Yeah, okay.
Okay, so at what point do you stop mentioning your age?
Oh, like, once I sort of didn't really see it as a thing.
Once I sort of established to my audience that I was young,
and I was like, hey, I know I'm young, let's go to my material now yeah I don't mention since then but it recently came up a lot was because people are interviewers
and reviewers always go oh so you're quite young you're quite young do you get annoyed about people
mentioning your age you know what like you are now yeah you I know your opening line in this
thing is going to be Daniel Sloss the whatever age comedian apparently gets annoyed about people
mentioning his age at the right old age of 21.
People do, but I don't know
whether there's any press about you or anything like that.
There's often an age-relation thing in that.
There's often something...
There was a thing recently,
which I presume is just something they took from Warranty
and blown it up.
Yeah.
But it was... I can't remember what it was.
It was something about...
You'd said something about
you'd never met anyone above the age of whatever it was.
It wasn't miserable.
It was on Chorl's front page.
Yeah, yeah.
That's why you're here, mate.
Oh, right.
No, no, there was.
There definitely was.
I think I'd mention audience-wise,
I always say that
I don't believe there should be
an age limit,
a lower age limit.
I think there should be
an upper age limit.
I would happily let
nine, ten, eleven years old
into my audience
because I've been watching
comedy since I was 5
you can't offend
a 5 year old
I would debate that
you can't offend
a 5 year old
but you can scar
a 5 year old
oh yeah
you can scar a 5 year old
and you can really
make their parents
really cross
yeah yeah
and that's what I've done
every time there's been
a complaint on my show
it's been a 12 year old laughing at jokes and it's been a complaint on my show it's been 12 year old
laughing at jokes
and it's been a parent
who's been uncomfortable
about finding out
how much
their child knows
yeah
but is there an element
of that of responsibility
is there an element
of that where
the reason for a complaint
would be
I don't know if it's justified
or not
but the reason for a complaint
would be because
they're approaching it
from an angle of maturity
so they're going
well hang on
this isn't acceptable for my children to hear this.
Yeah, but your job as a parent shouldn't be to stop what your child sees.
Well, they shouldn't talk to the show in the first place.
Yeah, yeah.
Your job as a parent should be to...
I mean, I say this as a point from someone who's not a parent that I know of.
Whoa!
But you should...
It's not to censor what your child sees,
it's to let them see the things
and then explain
to them that
there's wrong
oh Rihanna shouldn't
be dancing in those
sly clothes on television
you shouldn't put her
on television
no she should be
on television
you should just be
able to sit your
daughter down
and be like
don't dress like
that tramp
yeah
you're right
it should be a case
of using it
as an example
of what not to do
rather than
something to express
yeah I'm not.
If anything, I'm the opposite of a role model.
What are you?
The thing where you just, as a parent,
you bring your child along and go,
don't do that.
Don't.
See, this is what happens.
Although he looks like he's having fun,
we won't love you if this happens.
If you become this.
So, it's good this.
We're getting deep now.
So, do you think that you're unlovable?
Oh, entirely.
Do you?
Oh, yeah.
I've always said I'm shocked
when I find out
that people on the comedy circuit
think I'm nice.
I've never,
I've never heard that.
It's not a rumour
I've heard forever.
Oh, right, okay.
I'm shocked to hear that as well.
Oh, well,
I think it's because
I started that rumour.
Did you?
Just in a little disguise
with the glasses
and the moustache
and going,
have you heard
Daniel Sloss is really nice?
It wasn't even subtle,
just a bunch of comics
who weren't talking to me
because I'm such an asshole
where I whispered
in their ears going,
oh, that Daniel Sloss
is really nice.
Oh yes, oh yes.
Well, I think
when I first became
aware of you,
I think I...
I was standing behind
you breathing heavily.
Yeah, you were just
talking in my ear
saying, I am nice,
I am nice. No, I think when I first became aware of you as a comic, you breathing heavily yeah he was talking in my ear saying I am nice I am nice
no I think
when I first
became aware
of you as a
comic
I can't speak
for Ed
but I know
I had an
immediate knee
jerk reaction
away from you
where I was
like oh I
don't like him
oh no I
don't like him
he's a little
upstart
I don't like him
at all
and then I
confirmed your
suspicions
no not at all
see I'd not
even met you
at that point
and that's the
thing and that
happens I think
that happens in comedy quite a lot.
Not just comedy, in life.
Where people make assumptions on people
because they've known them from somewhere else.
But when they actually meet them,
they're perfectly charming people.
I mean, you see them, in comedy particularly,
you see them gig live and you're like,
no, they're fucking ace.
They're great.
But I definitely, I can remember definitely going,
ooh, no, I don't like him.
I don't like him at all.
Yeah.
No, do you know what I mean? Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's just hard to hear that from no, I don't like him. I don't like him at all. Do you know what I mean?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
It's just hard to hear that from you.
I'm sorry, man.
I like you.
I like you now.
Although that's pretty surprising.
I get that a lot,
especially from my older comic.
When I was 18, 19,
it was always that thing
where I just knew
people weren't going to like me.
One of my favourite moments
was when an incognito
turned round to me
and went
it's really weird
because I don't
wish you were dead
that's one of the
nicest things
anybody's ever
said to me
it's better that way
round that people
have that knee jet
reaction when they
haven't met you
and go oh I've met
him now I like him
and he's a good
comic rather than
just he looks
interesting
oh no he's a
cunt
I'm glad it is
that sort of
way round I think it's interesting it's an interesting thing I think people get the same way oh no he's a cunt oh he's a piece of shit yeah I'm glad it is that sort of way around
yeah
but I think it's interesting
it is
it's an interesting thing
I think people get the same way
about Ramsey
because when I
well I think I knew Ramsey first
yeah yeah
so I was always like
oh no he's just a wally
yeah
he's a lovely lad
I didn't know Ramsey
we always compared to each other
because we did both have
the same hairstyle
at one point
and then we never
met each other
we met each other at Latitude one year we never met each other and we met each other
with a latitude one year
and we just got on
and we just get on
really good
sat down
taped the charts together
yeah
read some comics
in the corner
and then you
got some bubble gum
and a competition
who could do
the biggest bubble
did you ever swap gigs
like an 80s film
or anything
like completely swap lives
we just
we were
like Andy Kaufman
and what's his
character
Nessie Malman
Danny Clifton
yeah
it's quite high
minded for you
and Ramsay
I think
much more
a little bro
yeah
but I can
understand people
I can understand
people
having a reaction
to Chris
Chris Ramsay
saying McCain
if we're talking
about all the
younger comics
I'd say
yourself Daniel Russell Cain Gamble Gamble's pretty young yeah Chris, Chris Ramsey, saying McCain, if we're talking about all the younger comics, I'd say yourself,
Daniel, Russell Cain.
Gamble.
Gamble.
Gamble's pretty young, yeah.
But I don't think
there's any reaction to you.
I think perhaps because you're...
I don't know.
Stay clear of it.
I don't think there is.
I don't think there is so much.
Also because you were
a nice, attractive fat boy.
Yeah.
And then you became
this sort of horrible,
emaciated skeleton.
Yeah.
And I think because you became...
Are you speaking on behalf of all older comics?
Most comics.
Yeah, yeah.
I think because you didn't start, you didn't break through as a younger looking lad.
Yeah.
It's quite clever what he's done, really.
Snuck in.
If you'd have done this, mate, you'd have just, like, put on about 20 stone and then
just been good at comedy for a bit and then...
And you can do it that way
there's ways around
these things same for
me really that's the
problem arriving as a
fully formed package you
want to really let one
thing go and then you
sort of build it if you
go along so maybe just
get fat or

Right, okay.
Which I think might be sort of end of the pier.
I think that's where you've got to go. What I will say to you, Daniel, as an overall thing,
at the moment is you have no room for improvement.
You've arrived as fully formed,
and I think it's going to be frustrating for you,
and it's going to be nice for your audience,
who will always have a very nice time when they come to your shows.
But for you, you will feel like,
well, where do I go from here?
Yeah. I am complete
so where do you see it going
what
comedy
comedy wise
yeah
I don't know
it's the thing
I've always been asked
what do you want to do next
and I
well can I
when I was 17
I just wanted to make a living
in comedy
and I'm doing that now
so I'm done
I must have been mad then
I wasn't making a living
at your age
I must have been mad
having all that money
it must be mad making a living what your age I must have been mad having all that money what did you spend
all your money on
genuinely one of the
stupidest things I
bought is I own a
life-size replica of
a velociraptor
you don't pay rent
because you're still
living with your
mum probably
but unfortunately I
split it with
Rowdy my raptor
now how much did you spend on that well it was reduced because you're still living with your mum probably. But unfortunately I supplied it with road in my Raptor now.
How much did you spend on that?
Well it was reduced.
Mate, that is exactly what I always do.
When people say to me, how much did you spend?
I go, well first off,
you're going to have to say how much it is
because I have no idea how much they cost to start with.
So I can't go, oh it was reduced because I...
Well no, no, because it is something that everyone,
it's not one of those things you go, oh it's alright, it was. Right, let's try and guess.
Let's try and guess.
Full size, to the point where I can sit on it.
Right, right.
What's it made of?
It's a fibreglass.
Is it official merch?
Is it from Jurassic Park or something like that?
Oh no, no, it's, I don't think so, no.
Somebody's just made it independently.
Yeah, I think it was like, some guy makes them for like theme parks and stuff.
Fine, okay.
And it got shipped over from France.
Okay, well the price has come down now.
Are we including shipping in our guesses?
Yeah, oh yeah.
I reckon at full whack, that includes.
Top of the list.
Top of the list. Top of the list. Top of the list. Top of the list. Top of the list. parks and stuff fine and it got shipped over from France are we including
shipping in our
guesses
I reckon at
Full Wack
that included
tops
tops three grand
that's tops
but you've got
it's whoever's
closest so you've
got to just
make it cool
what do you think
I'm going to say
2600
okay
I was going to
go
slightly less
I think I'm going
to go
I think you're right to go less I think I'm going to go... I think you're right to go less.
I think I'm going to go two.
600 quid.
Fine.
And what did you pay for it?
600 quid.
You paid 600?
Including shopping.
It was originally three grand.
And it was reduced to...
That's the point.
You didn't include the reduction.
I said three grand.
I said it.
No, let's do it again.
Let's do it all again.
Right, all right.
I think it was three grand. said it no let's do it again let's do it all again right we can say it at the same
right okay
I think it was
three grand
and you paid
maybe five
six hundred maybe
okay
I think
in the end
you paid six hundred
but I think
it started out
as three grand
no that's
and last
last guess wins right
that is true
I hate this
so what do you when you got that and it was just there yeah when That is true. I hate this. Peacock and Gamble, Peacock and Gamble.
So when you got that, and it was just there,
the idea of it must have been fun,
like I bought a full-sized Velociraptor,
I'm having it shipped over from France.
When you were just sat in your room,
looking at a full-sized Velociraptor,
at any point did you feel quite sad that you'd done that?
Oh, the first little while,
we did spend the first few days just walking past him and laughing.
Who's we?
Me and my old flatmate at the time, Natalie.
And then I brought a girl home one night,
and he used to be in my room,
and I totally forgot he was there.
He?
I've checked.
And, yeah, he was in my room, and she went in.
I was like, oh, just make yourself comfortable.
I'll go get some wine and stuff. And then she went in and I was like, oh, just make yourself comfortable, go get some wine and stuff.
And then she went in and she shrieked and I was cock-blocked by something
that was well over 200 million years old.
That's impressive, isn't it?
I think the most impressive part of that story is you saying,
I went to get some wine.
Yeah.
Charming little man.
I am a wonderful host.
Yeah, yeah.
Peacock and Gamble, Peacock and Gamble.
So, why...
Speaking of which, just randomly, there's a game of poker tonight
which a bunch of comics
are playing
and just randomly
I hope you enjoy it
I'm just bragging
about my social circles
I don't know
I play poker
we tried to learn once
didn't we
yeah
I used to play poker
oh no
I know I'm going to lose
we're just there to
drink and smoke
and have a laugh
as soon as you say
there's a big load
of comics going
I think Ray's
immediately put off
yeah
but then I want
both of us to go
to watch how Ray
reacts in that scenario
well I don't have
an issue with comics
groups of comics
groups of comics
I have an issue with
yeah
but one on one
I can quite happily
sit and talk to
anyone really
I think
what's your problem
with groups of comics
I don't know
I just think
there's a bit of
dick swinging
starts happening
and it just
ends up being
a little bit
sort of
I'm not one for
testosterone
other than my own
I've got none of it
I'm the same
none at all
could you find that
out of your school
medical
she's like there's
nothing down here
no I absolutely
hate that side of
things
like Steve McKay
like I've never
been in a fight
and I'm the sort of
I've been punched in
the face but I've
never been in a fight
but I'm the sort in a fight. Right.
But I'm the sort of person that once it gets to competition,
I'll talk people out of it.
I hate this sort of stuff.
I hate this sort of, well, I want to be the biggest and strongest.
That's why I used to hate going to nightclubs.
It's just a bunch of, boo, lads ego.
But deep down, I'm a better person than you because I don't need to do that.
Yeah.
Well, I think my leaning would be towards getting out of it without fists.
However, when that situation arises,
in the moment when it's happening,
I do start thinking,
this is my opportunity to punch someone in the face.
I was all ready to throw down the other night.
Yeah, both of us.
And we were hopelessly outnumbered as well.
Yeah.
With what happened?
We were standing
in the courtyard
and there was a group
of lads
kept throwing
their sort of
finished plastic
pine glasses
but they were still
like liquid
in the bottom of them
into the bins
but we were standing there
and they kept hitting me
and they were hitting
our friends and stuff
and we said
just stop doing that
like three or four times
and in the end
we were just
staring them out
one started eyeballing me
now the big man
would go oh you're a
child and just look
away but in me I
went oh you think
you can eyeball me
do you mate
I have just done a
show and I'm not
really feeling very
well
well you watch this
look that I'm doing
now
and so I just locked
eyes with him for a
long time
yeah
and then
they got off with each other
in the end
it was amazing
it was amazing
because people were
moving in front of us
so I used that opportunity
at one point
to just look
and I was chatting with Ed
yeah blink loads
blink loads
and Ed was staring
got myself ready
put some up checks
in my eyes
just Ed splashing
your face
going you can do this
come on I believe you
you can stare him out
but they were sort of
you know they were
because they were very close
we could hear that
they were getting ready
for you know
for Fisticuffs
and we were
I mean there were like
seven or eight of them
and there were two of us
but it was at the point
where it was like
I'm genuinely
this kicks off
and I'm just going
for the biggest one
yeah
in those situations
I'm awful
but that's why I'm glad
I'm friends with Kai
Kai is just a
working class ugly Batman.
Yeah yeah. Like whenever he sees injustice in the world whatever he'll just... and he's just...
he is quite... because he's Geordi he's quite hard on himself. Yeah. Like it was a case... he's not gonna like me
telling this story but neither would my agent but fuck it. That's how I'm doing during the film, war stories.
He was in Australia this year
and he phoned me
he was like
you're on Skype
get on Skype now
I'm like alright
okay why
and he goes
I'm in trouble
I was like
what have you done
he's like
I'm used to these
phone calls from people
it's like right
okay you've done something
you've had sex with someone
you shouldn't have
or you've done something
or you've got
your penis is missing again
or just
you shit blood
like you always do
so we get on the Skype and he's just sitting there and what had happened was he'd gone into Or you've got your penis is missing again. Or just... You shit blood like you always do.
So we get on the Skype and he's just sitting there.
And what had happened was he'd gone into McDonald's.
He's in there and there was this big Scottish guy who was just steaming.
And he was just screaming in his girlfriend's face.
Just screaming, screaming, screaming in his girlfriend's face.
And a group of guys at the table behind him went,
Do you mind?
Could you just keep it down, guys?
But he kind of tried to do it in a sort of bamf way and the Scottish guy just lost his shit
I went
you shut your fucking mouth
you know what I'm
talking about today
and then his anger
like smacked his
like coke
all over his girl
just so she was
drenched
and she started crying
and he got up
and he went
oh look
you made me
over to the group
of guys
and so he went up
to the girl
started taking his
watch off
and went
do you want me
to sort this out
and she went
yeah and he went
over to the guy
tapped him on the
shoulder
and the guy looked really angry and the guy just punched him went over to the guy tapped him on the shoulder and the guy
looked really
angry
and the guy
just punched
him twice in
the face
and knocked
him out
clean cold
and then two
of the guys
sitting down
at the table
went we
think you
better leave
and the guy
was just out
cold completely
so that's why
I like having
time
that's exciting
but that would
never end like
that if I did
it
I'll do it
I'd point to
someone and
then go,
this would hurt.
I don't think I wouldn't have adrenaline
that kicked in to stop that pain.
It would just be loads of bits of my brain going,
that's the stupidest thing you've ever done
and you're about to die.
And now...
See, all I would think,
it would never occur to me I could lose the fight.
That would never even occur to me.
I think too far ahead.
I think too far ahead.
But I'd be thinking, oh no, they will sue me. Right. I will too far ahead. I think too far ahead. But I'd be thinking,
oh no, they will sue me.
I will get,
oh no, I will get GBH.
Do you know what I mean?
All those things start occurring to me.
But I'd have no issue whatsoever.
We've all met people
that actually deserve it.
Oh yeah.
They actually deserve it.
Violence is often,
but some people do need
to be punched in the face.
Totally.
And I'm a pacifistic man by nature.
But there are absolutely people,
like that gentleman you're talking about in Australia, I have no issue with him getting punched in the face. Totally. And I'm a pacifistic man by nature. But there are absolutely people, like that gentleman
you're talking about
in Australia,
I have no issue
with him getting
punched in the face.
Yeah.
No issue with that
at all.
Yeah, no.
My perfect fight
situation was,
I was on a platform
at a train station
once,
and a woman ran up
to the platform
in floods of tears
and went round the corner
and hid right down
on the far end
of the platform.
I bet you found her
there and you punched her.
I know, Ed, you would have found her and definitely punched her really hard in the face.
Don't you follow what you're getting.
We're in public.
This massive bloke bowled up, like, looking really pissed off,
and he came up to me, like, quite aggressively and went,
did you see where a woman went? Did you see where that woman went?
And I went, yes, she went in that direction,
and pointed him in the wrong direction that's the ideal
fight for me
yeah that's perfect
isn't it
she went down
there to that
cafe
isn't it nice
that all these
things are like
we're justifying
them with chivalry
yeah
all we're thinking
is don't care
if there's a girl
there and we'll
punch a man in the face
it'll be handy
if there's a crying
girl there
that'll help
if you punch a man
in the face
then the girl will come and hang off your muscles at the end.
Yeah, that's true.
Yeah, I'll have a photo taken in front of my phone post.
So you brought your PS3 out with you?
Mate, just let the young lad thing go.
You don't have to go, oh, you've got a PS3.
What games have you got?
Have you completed Pac-Man yet?
Well, I was going to
trade on Pokemon cards
you're quite into
like
because this is another
thing that annoyed me
about you
there was an interview
I'm glad you have a list
that you showed me
we've changed the name
of this podcast
to Settling Scores
yeah yeah
that's fine
but no you showed me
the interview
I remember you showed
me the interview
because I think we'd
done a gig together
in London
it was the first time
I met you
it was one of those
shitty so TV ones
yeah that was it
we did that
and you were on there
that was the first
one of those
yeah
I don't think we
really spoke then
I think we sort of
had a wavy thing
yeah yeah
no I think you'd
done quite well
and no one else did
so
I'd gone off to
another gig afterwards
I did alright
no you didn't mate
shut up
I find that good
yeah I know.
That's it, mate.
Air quotes.
I think... I'm sure you showed me an interview
with Daniel Wade.
I farted on the head of So Television.
That's true.
That's true.
The head of So TV
was not Graham,
but the other bloke
was getting out of a cab
and Ed was stood there
and he did it on purpose
but at the point
that the man got out, we won't even name him
but you'll be able to find his name.
You have done already as well.
The point where he got
out of the cab, Ed had his bat zoom and
farted at that point. Really bad one as well.
So the man got out of the cab
into the fart.
I think then I went on stage and mentioned it and
no one, it was just silence.
Did you say it on stage? Yeah I said it on stage because that was in the time where I had some stage and mentioned it and no one, like, it was just silence. Yeah, it was just... Did you say it on stage? Yeah, I said it on stage.
Because that was in the time where, like,
I had some material and some of it was all right.
But quite a lot of the time, if I was gigging with you,
I'd be perfectly happy for you to go,
you should go on and say that in the beginning
and go, all right, I will go on and do that.
And go, no, that's not what I'm fucking talking about.
Well, we had a little relationship with So Television
because Jason Dawson
who
Jason
who's now
he's now gone to
Big Run Better Things
really I guess
but he's
at the time
he was a fan of the podcast
and he got in touch
with us and said
he works for So TV
do you want to come in
for a meeting
and we went
oh yeah that sounds
brilliant
we were like
oh that's really cool
people taking notes of us
and we got to So TV
and he met us at the door
and we were sort of like,
so where are we going?
And he was like,
I thought we could go to pub.
Right,
we were like,
well,
are we not going to go into the building?
He was like,
no,
no.
I'm ashamed to take you in.
No,
but we were generally like,
he's not even told him,
he's got us.
We're just working,
but it's a cleaner or something.
And he just wanted to have a drink with us
and we went out to drink and stuff
and had a chat
and we were still good friends with Jason,
you know,
we were sort of,
not good friends, that's not fair
no
acquaintances with Jason
yeah
I've heard those sorts of things
did you think that was
going to be a big thing
when you first met him
I don't think we thought
it was going to be a big thing
we thought we'd get into the office
I think we genuinely believed
he worked there
wait wait
when you say the office
you mean
not
not the show
the office
no
because then I was almost as optimistic.
I thought we'd get a part in The Office.
He wrote that, didn't he, Jason?
He told us that.
Yeah, I think he wrote that.
Yeah, he wrote The Office.
It's also, he created Alan Partridge.
I think Jason created Alan Partridge.
Who would whine about creating Alan Partridge
and not getting credit for it?
That's a brilliant edit point.
I remember when I was 17,
I was in So You Think You're Funny
and I got to the final,
didn't win,
but it was that thing afterwards
where you're in this sort of party
and it's the schmoozing.
I'd never been schmoozed before.
Yeah.
So I just thought it was genuine.
So I had just people coming up to me
and going,
here's my car,
I'm going to clean this,
I'm going to clean that.
I'm just saying, what can I do? I didn't even win,'s my company this could be that movie star and this guy got in contact I want you
to come down and film this a pilot I was like okay that sounds awesome when we
went down it was me and it was Eric Lampert first time I met him yes Anders
here shot Doc Brown and I. I think they'd all realised
that it wasn't this big thing.
It was this TV show
where we're all meant to be
in a rock band and stuff.
But I remember phoning my agent
at the time,
just going,
how much do you think
I'll get an episode for this?
And she was just like,
what?
And she's going,
right, okay,
off the top of my head,
if this were to be a thing,
which is not,
can you buy something?
And I'm like,
I'm going to be fucking loaded.
And she just started out and then nothing came of it
I'm going to buy
a velociraptor
one day
I'm going to have
enough money
to buy a velociraptor
I'm going to wait
four long years
dinosaurs
it's weird though
pilots are a weird one
though aren't they
because you can get
carried away with a pilot
and you can
I always think it's best
even though I don't think
we've even adhered to this
but I always think it's best
if you do a pilot to not even mention it don't mention you've even adhered to this but I always think it's best if you do a pilot to not
even mention it
don't mention you've
done a pilot
don't mention anything
to do with that
because then
all that happens
then is you then
have to have the
discussion later on
about how it
wasn't picked up
how it didn't
happen
whereas if you
just wait
and see if it
gets picked up
and then you can
say okay there's
a series
then you can
start talking about it
well I have the
opposite problem
which is a lot of
people come on and
go yeah mate I
really enjoyed your
sitcom I'll manage to catch one episode of it I'm like yeah there was only one well I have the opposite problem which is a lot of people come up and go yeah mate I really enjoyed your sitcom
I might just catch
one episode of it
I'm like
there was only one
you saw
you saw all of it
thanks very much
for watching
every single minute of it
it's all coming out
on DVD
yeah you did
I thought that
you did a set
Ed Byrne was in that
wasn't he
he was
yeah Ed was in that
so what happened with that
did that not
we don't have to
rake over our wounds but was that no it was it wasn't great it was was it that, wasn't he? He was, yeah. Yeah, Ed was in that. So what happened with that? Did that not... We don't have to rake over our wounds,
but was that...
No, it wasn't great.
It was...
Was it not?
I didn't see it.
It was called The Adventures of Daniel.
Okay.
It was one of the...
You played Daniel?
I played Daniel.
Good.
Well done.
That would have been awkward.
It was really awkward.
I had a lot of people coming up to tell me,
going, you know, you're really good at acting.
I'm like, yeah, but I'm playing myself.
It was on BBC Three, wasn't it?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
The thing is...
It would have been terrible if you'd created something on BBC Three, wasn't it? Yeah, yeah, yeah. The thing is... It would have been terrible
if you'd created something
on BBC Three.
I didn't create it.
It was...
No, but if you...
If I was the superior head
point of it, yeah.
And then I'd want to get
Wyatt Flop.
Okay, come in and audition.
Pardon?
Yeah.
Or worse,
we've recast Daniel.
Yeah.
Oh, is he going to be
played by...
Oh, it's just...
Day Lewis. He's been living as you We've recast Daniel. Yeah. Oh, who's he going to be played by? Oh, it's just... Day-Lewis.
He's been living as you for 60 months.
They wouldn't do that, BBC Three.
Yeah, no.
And I think apparently it got really good sort of ratings and stuff,
especially with that time slot, but it just...
What time was it on?
I think it was on at 8.30 or something.
Okay, so a lot of yours haven't gone to bed yet.
You had, unfortunately.
I bet you had all your friends watching that video the next day.
And then you put it on and it was snooker and your mum had taped the wrong channel.
Mum, I was on the telly last night and you had taped the wrong channel.
Why do you think Daniel's mum watches snooker?
That is such a classic mum thing to watch.
You know when you walk downstairs in the evening
and your mum's watching Snooker?
See when your dad gets home.
He doesn't make me dinner.
If you walk down and your mum is watching Snooker,
there are two rules.
One is, do not look underneath the cushion that's next to her.
And two, don't ask her what she was really watching.
Turn it over fast.
Mum, you're really into this, aren't you?
Yeah, love the...
You're all sweaty and panty.
Yeah, I know.
It's the bit where they get the black ball in.
Pea cooking gamble, pea cooking gamble.
So this year at the Fringe, you're on all the buses.
I don't mean like Olive.
I mean that you're...
I want to be on the buses, but only the green-ish ones.
You're on the side of all the buses,
which gave us a right giggle when we first arrived.
Loved that. It was brilliant.
What a day.
No, no, it's not even...
You can't do it, man. It's not that.
It's just, it's always shocking and funny to arrive at the Fringe
and then realise all over again what a massive business it is.
Oh, yeah, yeah.
And the size of the posters and everything getting bigger and bigger every year.
It's like, fuck a bus.
Yeah, don't do that.
I remember the first time, this was like, I think 2000, I think it was,
when I'd been up 99.
And in 2000, we came back to the Fringe,
and Ross Noble had done bigger posters than everyone else.
Now, it's a standard-sized poster now.
But posters used to be like, yeah, big A1, is that whatever it is?
Yeah, that sort of size.
And everyone had the same standard posters.
And then one year, Ross came back,
and he had posters the size that you just see everywhere now.
So it's his fault?
Pretty much, yeah, yeah, yeah.
And everyone's like, that's not fair. Whoa, what is happening yeah and i think that was the moment i
think it was genuinely the moment where it went right and then the year after jamon had a huge
one coming out the side of the gilded balloon which oh no so on the opposite side of the balloon
it was just a huge tarp on which they managed to get up wow and it was one of the ones that
that year everyone went oh yeah i remember it was yeah two six i think it was one of the ones that that year everyone went, oh, yeah, I remember it was two six,
I think it was.
But it's insane
though,
isn't it?
So you're seeing it
on the bus there
was like,
that's insane,
man.
That's like really,
you know,
it's where's it
going to go?
Yeah.
From there.
Arthur's seat.
All of it.
All of it.
I'm going to
paint my face
on the side.
Are you going
to do it yourself?
Yeah.
It's going to be
a big smiley face.
Have you got a tag?
Because you're a
little boy.
Have you got a tag that you always a little boy have you got a tag
that you always do
well we're just like
it's a graphic
oh that sloss
sloss has done that
that sloss is tag
that's like
I don't even have a good
I don't even have a good
signature
like every time I sign
something
I can always just see
my fans going
oh
that's it
and I'm like
do you write like a child
oh my handwriting
is appalling
and I even hold
my pen wrong
I hold it like that
that's how I hold it
because I just
always have
that's insane
so you're doing
what's I think
technically known
as a beadle hand
it's a velocigrip
isn't it
yeah
but yeah
when I remember
when I was nine years old
my dad was
he was like
right you're sort of
the age we should learn
to hold a pen properly
so I'll pay you
I'll pay you 50 quid
if you hold your pen properly
and then I did it
for a week
and then
I just gave him
50 quid back
I was like
it's not worth it
and I've always been
that level of stubbornness
I don't eat vegetables
right
and I just don't
I hate them
and they're disgusting
and pointless
you stupid boy
I know I am
that's ridiculous
I'll eat them in
soup and stuff
on it's part
but if it's just
a stand alone carrot
it can go fuck itself
you're an idiot
you're just there
how often do you get
offered a stand alone
carrot
my parents keep me
in a hutch
and
I've got years on you son and I'm telling you now I've never been offered a carrot My parents keep me in a hutch.
I've got years on you, son,
and I'm telling you now,
I've never been offered a carrot.
Are you doing this to me? Surprised you can find a carrot in your house.
And when you're not going to bed,
when you're told.
No, but I mean,
like, if it's on the side of the plate.
It's my little anarchy.
Daniel, I'm surprised you couldn't find a carrot
in your house
if your mum's got the snooker on
so you don't
you don't
or you won't eat vegetables
I don't eat vegetables often
I will if like
if I've sort of cooked them
I'm very picky
if I've cooked them myself
and I know I cook them
in the way that I like them
yeah
how do you like vegetables cooked
deep fried
no
it's with carrots as long as it's in as part of it like them how do you like vegetables cooked deep fried no it's with carrots
as long as it's in
as part of a
like I eat carrots
and leeks and onions
as long as it's in
as part of a stew
but if you just put
carrots and peas
and sweet corn
beside a bit of meat
you've cooked
that stuff can go
fuck itself
because
why are you so aggressive
because I was always
why because it's too old
no it's right
yeah is that the sort of
thing that old people
like in the war?
I remember it was hot, I was traumatising.
No, it wasn't traumatising.
A very, very detailed one who's actually traumatised,
it makes this sound really pathetic.
Slow down, this goes out in England as well.
Sorry.
When I was seven years old, my grandparents would come down and they'd cook.
I had one set of grandparents that were just, they loved spoiling their grandkids.
And then another set of grandparents who were arguably good grandparents,
because they were the ones who went, eat this, finish this, do this, get it done.
And they would put the carrots there and they'd go,
you're not going to leave the table until you've finished your vegetables.
And I would sit there for three hours just at the table just going,
I can sit...
But that's...
But that's...
Okay, but that's a thing, isn't it?
So that's time in memorial.
That's a thing where kids won't eat the vegetables
and you tell them you can't leave the table
until you've ate your vegetables
because they're good for you, blah, blah, blah.
But I think the fact that you even have it
as a fact about you...
Yeah.
I don't eat vegetables,
I think is cynical marketing. I think it's cynical marketing.
I think
somebody said to you,
say you don't like vegetables
because then you will seem more like
a child.
Yeah, we need to
ring this out. Pick your nose in interviews.
Shuffle your feet a lot.
Have a sleep after 25 minutes
We're not definitely saying this is going to happen
But you should consider a propeller hat
Every time I do a joke
Just spin it around
I don't eat no carrots for dinner
And then just pretend to take off
I don't eat many vegetables But I'd never give it as a little fact about me carrots for Denny. And then just pretend to take off.
I don't eat many vegetables,
but I'd never give it as a little fact about me.
Okay, I don't class potatoes as vegetables,
because they're not important ones.
They're not ones that are like,
they're not part of your five a day.
Carrots, same texture as a potato.
So, technically a potato.
I'm going to pull you on that. No, no, but carry on.
No, same with butternut squash probably fine
butternut squash isn't a potato
no but it's
it's a squash
it's basically onions, leeks
and peas and carrots
and lettuce, the green stuff
I'm not going to eat what my food eats
I eat cows and cows eat that stuff
so therefore...
I eat grass.
Which is green.
So, the same.
Yeah, but I eat beef, but I don't eat shit.
And there's different colours, aren't there?
Do you know what?
There's no point in arguing with him.
If he's going to behave like this, if that's his attitude...
If you want this interview to carry on, you're going to have a bit of character.
Oh my God, I'm going to die.
If you...
This is what happens!
This is why everyone always thinks I'm young, because it always
fucking happens in interviews.
Listen, listen.
And now it's gonna be like, oh look at him harping on about how fucking young he is.
Daniels!
Stop it!
Stop it!
Don't think if you have a little tantrum,'re going to get your own way Right, be quiet
A minute
This is genuinely the worst behaviour I've seen last week
Right, now stop it
Listen, if you think you can just carry on being a professional comedian
Go and swan in about the place, get all the big laughs in your big venue
And then just live on pizza,
then that's your own lookout.
But you do not come into
another person's house
and start raising your voice
like that.
Right?
Is that understood?
Is that understood, Daniel?
Yes.
Yes, what?
Right.
Good.
Now,
what's your favourite pot group?
Let's have a nice interview
without little boys coming in here
shouting and screaming,
showing off.
Oh, I took a girl back to my flat.
What?
Oh, very good, Daniel.
Well done.
What?
A year ago?
They saw my velociraptor.
Oh, very brave.
Unbelievable.
I'm sorry.
I'm going to back out this into you.
I'm sorry, mate.
Should I just...
Is that it over?
Should I just leave it?
I think, to be honest with you,
what you need is a nap.
I think you need to have a quiet...
You've had coffee,
which you shouldn't have.
You've probably had pop on the way
and not told us.
You've come in here all excited.
When's your show on, please?

Very good.
The SEC and then
I've also got two shows on Fridays and Saturdays. Very good. The SEC and then I've also got two shows

And are you going to
behave yourself with those?
No.
Right, well then
you're not doing
the extra shows
on Fridays and Saturdays.
Are you going to
behave yourself with those?
Are you going to
make me go out
and just explain
to the audience
what I'm doing?
No, no.
I'll go out.
I'll go out with you.
You can be stood behind me and I'll say,
I'm sorry ladies and gentlemen,
I know you all spent a lot of money,
but Daniel has been a very naughty boy today.
He's had coffee and been shouting at strangers' house,
so he's not allowed to do his extra shirts this evening.
Please don't take that out on me.
Take that out on Daniel,
and you can stand there,
and they can all shout things at you.

change when they get
to that with the credits
they go
it was a Ready Production
hosted by
Chortle of Credit UK
Yeah yeah
But it's not, we're not.
We're only affiliated to them insofar
