We're in the big studio today.

It's like we've grown up.

It's very, very posh listeners.

It's like the proper LBC studio.

Well, it is the proper LBC studio. That's why it's like it.

When I said it's like it, it's like, like I'm saying like, like.

Because I'm sitting in the main presenter's chair, which gives you complete authority.

I feel, I do feel like Jackie Weaver, whereas you're just in the guest

chair. I'm like some vague. Maybe we should swap halfway through like we do on election night when

I do it with Sheila and she, she comes in here. But it is the most amazing thing because you feel

in total control, it's a bit like, do you remember on Doctor Who in the 1970s? Davros used to go right and do his little wheelchair thing with a sort of desk in front of him with lots of knobs on. It's just like that. Yeah, yeah. There's just a knob behind the desk today, Ian. Oh. Boom bum. It's fabulous. It's very nice. I was slightly worried about whether or not LBC had just completely gone off air in order to enable us to record the podcast I understand not no the one that we normally go in which we call 3L because it's on the third floor and it's Studio L and that's just being refurbished so I think they're trialling that today with Sheila she's the guinea for it so because we would normally be in that so but we have to be finished by

quarter to four otherwise Eddie Mann might not be very pleased he'll come in and

wrestle you out of his seat which I would frankly pay good money to see he's done it

once before has he get it oh I? She's a little bit slow today.

She's very tired. I'll tell you, I need a holiday. Well, you're about to have one, unlike the rest of us.

Now, we're going to do something a little bit different today. Because we have the live show on Monday,

we don't want to run out of things to say, as if. So we thought today we would just do your questions.

Obviously we are going to cover questions on PartyGate and probably Rwanda as well. But we thought

we'd do something so we get more of your questions on today because I've built up a little bit of

a backlog of emails because we're getting so many. Somebody said to me the other day, so do you get more questions than Alastair Campbell and Rory Stewart? Of course we, well, I don't know. I don't know how many they get, do I? Why are you talking about them again? Well, because Alistow gave me a shout out. He didn't mention you, but he did mention me on their podcast this week. So I'm feeling benevolent.

I know you're getting a bit sick of it, aren't you?

Yep.
