0:00.0 | Hello and welcome to another episode of telling everybody everything. It is Saturday, |
0:07.0 | the 5th of April. I'm in a hotel in Manchester. This is my third long weekend away. And I'm glad |
0:15.7 | to be back in London next week. I'm back at the Palladium for three days, Thursday, Friday, Saturday |
0:21.7 | next week. I think that's the 10th, 11, 12th, if you want to come. And then we have a little |
0:27.1 | bit of time off for Easter, and that's going to be so much fun. I have been just handling |
0:34.1 | all the follow-up for the melanoma, just waiting for the histology. |

1:30.7 | Anytime I've seen a private doctor, that doctor has worked in the NHS during the week. And then |
1:36.2 | they'll have like a one day private clinic for people who don't want to wait for the NHS and |
1:42.4 | want to pay them. But these doctors are so busy. |
1:44.6 | They work like six days a week. But I was connected with an oncologist who's like really, really |
1:52.5 | clever. He's also a medical entrepreneur and he gathers loads of colleagues to do research and to find like groundbreaking cures for things. |
2:03.9 | So I'm not sure if what he recommended I have is also available on the NHS. I don't really see why |
