00:00 Hello!

00:01 Hello!

00:02 Nice to see you!

00:03 I'm glad we're not in a field again, remember that?

00:05 I never forget that actually, every time I think of you I just think of that field.

00:08 You're like sitting cross-legged.

00:10 Literally.

00:11 And it's starting to lash.

00:13 Thank you!

00:14 Oh my god yeah, well Scotland, that's what you expected.

00:16 Are you having more fun though?

00:18 Um, well, uh, yeah!

00:21 Yeah.

00:22 She's fun.

00:23 Blondes do have more fun though, where?

00:25 I think I might be a natural blonde.

00:27 I mean, I'll clearly not be a natural blonde.

00:29 That's me.

00:30 That's me, yeah yeah.

00:31 I couldn't go back to my roots now, because I'm like, no blonde is me, that's my personality.

00:35 Yeah, I feel like it might be me.

00:37 I'm going to take my trainers off, does anyone mind?

00:39 No.

00:40 Absolutely not, you do your thing.

00:41 It's not to wriggle my toes.

00:42 Listen, I love this, this is right up my street, I've been quoting the film ever since I've

00:46 seen it.

00:47 It's become my modern day Mean Girls, I just keep firing out quotes.

00:50 Yeah, that's brilliant, that is one quote!

00:52 Honestly, my favourite line is "you've got an attitude of Ireland about you".

00:57 I'm like, see if someone said that to me, I think I'd fall in love with them.

01:01 That's like my favourite insult, and it's not even a sweary one!

01:04 People have been saying that my whole life.

01:06 Well, it's a compliment, that's all.

01:09 She does exactly what she says on the tin.

01:12 Did you have a favourite line that you're able to repeat?

01:16 Probably not.

01:18 Now, what can we repeat?

01:21 Slippery old dodger.

01:23 Are we allowed to curse?

01:25 We are not.

01:26 Why not?

01:27 The one I can remember, which I've said a hundred times today, is "you look like Queen

01:32 Victoria had a bunch of nettles shoved up your..."

01:36 Bam, bam, bam!

01:38 You've just reminded me of that!

01:40 I want to watch it again so I can remember more of them.

01:43 Now listen, the letters are very beautifully written, I wish I could handwrite like that.

01:48 My handwriting's awful.

01:49 I believe you've got one and it's in your toilet, is that true?

01:52 Yes!

01:53 Tell me about this.

01:54 I just remember it says, so it's quite small letters and it gets bigger with the insults.

02:00 "You deserve to be in hell, you stinky old bitch" or something.

02:05 It's great.

02:06 And I just remember my mum going in there for a wee and sort of peering at it.

02:12 What?

02:13 What is this?

02:15 Who sent that?

02:17 You would though if you were in the toilet, you'd be like "oh, is this about me?

02:20 Is this about us?

02:21 Did you take it?"

02:22 No, but she wrote it to herself.

02:24 Ah, okay.

02:25 I am obsessed with Rose.

02:28 I feel like I would have been Rose back in those days.

02:31 I want to be more like Rose in these days.

02:33 You are Rose!

02:34 I know I am, but I do feel like as I've gotten older I care more about what people think

02:38 and I want to be more like Rose and just not care.

02:40 How are you guys with not caring what people think?

02:43 It's hard.

02:44 I wish I was more Rose.

02:46 Most friends, I mean, I don't care.

02:50 I have no filter with this one.

02:52 Literally all the time.

02:54 I have here as well.

02:56 I'm joking!

02:59 I refuse to hold it in.

03:02 I think it was two dates in with my husband.

03:05 We've been together 30 years, two dates in.

03:07 I felt a bit windy and so I said, "I'm going to, I'm sorry, but this is me."

03:12 And you know, it feels like this is going to go in faces, so I'm just going to be me.

03:16 He farted and he went, "Oh, okay, cool."

03:19 Yay!

03:20 But you want to get it out of the way because that's such an awkward thing as well.

03:23 You want to just be like, "Let's just get this out of the way."

03:25 Yeah, totally.

03:28 Then you can tell, "I've got a friend. I've gone off now."

03:31 Not bad, we love when you go off.

03:34 But there was a really dear friend of mine, she's been with her husband for 20 odd years.

03:38 They have never farted in front of each other.

03:40 I don't understand that. That's a lie.

03:42 I mean, I'm impractical.

03:43 Yeah.

03:44 And dishonest.

03:45 Dishonest.

03:46 I feel like you can't. They must have stomach problems.

03:49 I'm comfy. Can you imagine constantly having to get up and go and hide or open the door and go, "Oh, I'm having a hot flush."

03:55 It could never be me.

03:57 Now, listen, I've only ever had one piece of written fan mail because I'm obviously not on your level yet.

04:02 I would imagine youse have had quite a lot of written fan mail, have you?

04:05 Does it still happen? Is it still a thing? You get letters?

04:07 Back in the day, I did.

04:09 Yeah.

04:10 I used to get sweet sort of photographs to sign.

04:12 Quite often, a couple of times I got Claire Foy's photo to sign.

04:16 So I would send her a picture going, "How do you want me to sign this?"

04:19 And Olivia Williams, occasionally we'd get each other's stuff, which is just funny.

04:26 Yeah.

04:27 Do you get fan mail?

04:28 I do, yeah. I think I do. I don't know.

04:31 You're too busy to read it. You've got someone else surfing through it for you.

04:35 I feel always really nice.

04:38 Yeah.

04:39 It's nice.

04:40 When was the last letter that you wrote and what was it? Do you remember?

04:45 Oh.

04:47 Oh.

04:48 Actually, I...

04:52 I wrote a thank you letter. That's not right.

04:55 I have a lovely friend in Dublin who's older and I sometimes write...

05:01 Yeah, and sometimes I write her letters when I'm away.

05:04 That's just nice.

05:05 That's really nice.

05:06 I'm going to do it more.

05:07 It's lovely getting a letter.

05:09 It is. It's special.

05:10 I love getting a letter.

05:11 Can I... I've just remembered.

05:13 So when my husband and I first got together, he was a student and I was feckless.

05:19 [Laughter]

05:22 He had to go to Hong Kong for three weeks and it was awful.

05:29 Before we'd said we loved each other, but we wrote to each other every day.

05:33 So the first day he got there, he wrote to me and I wrote to him and those letters passed

05:36 and then we would just reply to the letters that we got.

05:38 Do you still have those letters?

05:39 Oh, yeah.

05:40 Oh.

05:41 They're beautiful. On airpaper, you know, because we couldn't afford to phone each other.

05:45 Yeah.

05:46 That's so nice.

05:47 I went to my parents' house and said, "Can I borrow the phone to phone Ed?"

05:50 And they went, "It works!"

05:52 And...

05:53 No.

05:54 And, yeah, that was amazing.

05:57 And those letters, oh, you couldn't sleep at night waiting for the letter to arrive the next day.

06:02 That actually makes me quite sad because, like, you don't have that anymore now.

06:05 No.

06:06 We've got date naps and it's hell.

06:07 We should bring letters back.

06:08 We need this hell out here.

06:09 Yeah.

06:10 We should.

06:11 Yeah.

06:12 That should be the way that men court people because it takes attention to detail.

06:14 Yeah.

06:15 As long as they're not sending you letters like the ones from Wicked Little Letters.

06:19 Yeah.

06:20 I would actually quite enjoy that.

06:21 Would you?

06:22 I would probably be like, "Who's wrote that? I like it."

06:24 But that says a lot about me.

06:25 And instead of a **** pic, you could get a drawing.

06:28 Yeah, ****.

06:29 No, actually, do you know what? I wouldn't mind that so much.

06:32 That would be quite good.

06:33 An artistic impression.

06:34 Yeah.

06:35 [Laughter]

06:37 Is that the Tower of Pisa?

06:39 Oh, it is.

06:40 This is where we're at with dating and romance in 2024.

06:44 But anyway, I could go off on a tangent with that.

06:46 It's so great to see you all.

06:47 You too.

06:48 I love this.

06:49 I can't wait to watch it again so I can get all the insults ready.

06:51 Honestly, loved it so much.

06:52 Thank you.

06:53 Thank you very much.
