0:00.0 | And welcome to The Daily Pause with me, James The Daily Pause, and I know I always |
0:18.8 | don't, as I suspect this guest, but I really am, James Foxx, I think you are maybe the |
0:27.0 | most famous star I've ever had on my podcast. No. And you're probably so important to you |
0:34.0 | even think of yourself as a star. No, I can't believe that. I'm not a star anyway. No, I was |
0:42.2 | a star. I was a star in the 60s, but that's a long time ago. Yeah, I know. I know. It does. |
0:50.4 | It happens, doesn't it? I mean, I was thinking that in 1968, which is what, about when you're |
1:05.2 | sort of peak period of fame, you must have been about the most bankable British actor. I mean, |
1:13.8 | you're certainly one of the most acclaimed ones in films anyway. Yeah, I was, as they say, |
1:20.8 | I suppose, bankable. Yeah. They would use my name and, you know, things could move forward |

1:50.0 | It's good. It's good. Yeah. By the way, since I've known you, and really, I'm sort of |
1:59.7 | interview as a friend rather than as a kind of famous person that I'm excited about, I've |
2:06.4 | been calling you the wrong name all this time. Have a night. I mean, you're originally called |
2:09.8 | William. Do people call you William still or not, really? Everybody who knew me before 1962 calls me |
2:19.6 | William or Willie, because I was christened William and because there was an actor called William Fox |
2:27.1 | and there was a rule in equity that you couldn't have the same names. I had to change mine. |
2:32.8 | And so since I just do it, I've been known as James. What happened? Did did William Fox have a |
2:43.2 | career? I don't think he was. He wasn't terribly famous. He was a very good radio actor. We |
2:51.2 | didn't look anything alike. I got quite upset because people have been on billboards calling |
