This is a Global Player Original podcast.

Ian, I really, really hope you're going to cheer me up this evening. I'm feeling a little bit

unfestive, considering it's a four-day holiday weekend and all the rest of it, I'm not really...

Are you not having a nice platy jubly, is that the phrase?

Plattie jubly. I did newscast with Aisha Hazarika during the week in Adam Fleming.

And I'd never heard this phrase before.

And he said, oh, it's what everybody's using on Twitter.

Hashtag platy jubly.

And I said that sounds like plattie pubes or something.

Or was it platy jubly?

And I immediately thought of pubes. you ever plaited your pubs no

because i've never got long enough to plat there we go you've cheered me up already i was i was really

feeling quite why i don't really know I think I'm a bit tired.

I've been working today. I haven't had it off like you. So... Yeah, who did you do Good Morning Britain with? Who was my stand in? Andrew Pierce. And how did you get on? Oh, he was... Fine, fine, yeah. He was in... Because it was all royal stuff, so he was in fine fettle and he had his little Union Jack rosette on.

Have you seen this rather revealing picture of Andrea Ledzum on a plane with her husband

where he's wearing a Union Jack waistcoat and she's wearing a very low-cut Union Jack sort of,

well, it doesn't leave much to the imagination. A union jack what? Well, sort of, I don't, I couldn't, I only looked at it briefly. I don't know whether it was a bra or what, but it was showing off some assets, let me tell you. Goodness me. I know. Why was she taking photos of her boobs on a plane?

I don't know.

It's on her Instagram if people wish to examine it.

Okay.

I'm going to become a little distracted now whilst I go and have a look at Hangea Lidson's Instagram.

Now, we're going to spend a lot of this podcast answering questions, aren't we?
