0:00.0	The rest of entertainment is presented by Octopus Energy.
0:02.8	Now, celebrity culture has a way of taking very small preferences and promoting them until they require a lot of paperwork. Yeah, it's like the first time we ever go on a show and you say, oh, could have some sparkling water and then like forever, it's like, oh, you has to have sparkling water, it must have sparkling water. It's very, very important. And that's what we call the rider. The rider. Right. In some cases, the rider didn't stay sort of practical for long.
0:21.6	You know, it started as a wish list,
0:23.1	and then it sort of strayed into a kind of a hostage note from the ego. There was a point in JLo's ego where she was having like, you know, the white drapes, the white candles, the white, absolutely everything, white flowers, white, you know, sofas, everything.

1:11.6	Hello, Marina.
1:12.2	Hello, Richard.
1:12.8	How are you?
1:13.3	I'm very well, looking forward to answering questions.
1:15.5	Soon, we're going to do an episode where we're not answering questions.
1:18.2	So we are, again, on the lookout for questions from our audience.
1:21.7	This time for...
1:23.2	Tom Hanks.
1:24.8	Heard of him?
