Okay, basically we're in a car together, we're in a car together, we were driving three

wells and we tried to perform an overtaking maneuver that was very ill-advised.

And who was driving?

James.

James.

And yeah, we got hit by a car and we got dragged in front of a lorry and

just it was a really big catastrophic crash but as I say I

talked quite a lot like on stage and oh in another podcast and stuff but

basically it was miraculous that no one was hummed, really miraculous, and we all were so shocked afterwards.

And for a long while it affected me in loads of ways, like really weird to have such a like near-death experience, but one that was so lucky.

Like normally in a crush like that, you know, you would expect to be injured or something and

that would be your near-death thing native thing but we walked out of it

completely fine and it was weird like for a while I didn't trust buildings I

thought buildings were going to collapse.

It got very panicky in cars very panicky on trains. It made me stop dieting. Just changed my attitude about food.

Before the crash I've been chatting with a friend of mine who's this wonderful woman

she's like an absolute hero of mine like a

substitute parent figure of mine and she and I went for this long walk she's quite a

fair bit older than me. We met when I was a teenager and she was in comedy

she was in her 30s and I was in my teens.

She always been in my life and I just really love her.

We had a long chat about life and death and about eating and what that meant.
