You know there's often someone on set who's the corpter, as they call it, the giggler, the person, like Richard Jervais is famously like that. Yes, yeah.

What's your, what are you known for?

Oh God, you have to ask everybody else.

I think probably being quite assertive.

I'm always encouraging that with women, never a bad thing.

Probably quite assertive and, you know, and also I'm, I don't, I don't mess around. When I'm at work, I'm like, okay, let's get it done, let's do this, let's do that. I'm very much like, I like working at a fast pace because I think my brain works quite quickly. I don't like hanging around. So, you know, I know, like, I know we could, if we've got half an hour to shoot a scene, I'm like, okay, we can do this because, you know, we can do this and we can do this. And they're like, yeah, and then it becomes like this brilliant sort of fun activity to do a really good job in a short amount of time. I really enjoyed that challenge. So I think I'm quite sort of, But I also, you know, the drivers sort of were very lucky would get driven. They're always laughing that, you know, whoever gets to drive me is the best because has the best ride because I'm like, take my wig off as I'm walking off set. I'm like in my own clothes. I need to get back, feed the kids. So I'm like, I'm quick. I don't mess around with anything. I'm just like... Yes, I like that. So you're quite no nonsense.

Yeah, I am would you say you are I'm quite

practical are you yeah in fact my partner said on my grave you're right practical

the romance the romance it's like key it's practical um it's like he knows that if he doesn't get around to doing something, I'll just go, oh fuck it, I'll do it. Do you just get on with it? Yeah. I like the sound of your partner. Yeah, he's great. And actually he used to row, so he's awesome. That's quite hot, isn't it? It is quite hot. I do like a rower. Yeah.

We all love a row.

Let's not lie.

I know.

I've had a lot of time with short men since it's not at all.
