Hello and welcome to the last in this series of six of the Ricky Jave show with me, Ricky Javeh, Steve Merchant.

0:17.9

Hello.

0:18.7

And Carl Pilkington.

0:19.9

All right.

0:21.7

Carl, as you're aware,

0:26.6

you've obviously got many celebrity fans. David Bowie is a fan, people involved with creating The Simpsons.

0:31.8

And you've also got a new fan, Warwick Davis, who is the short actor that many people will see in films like Return of the Jedi. He also is in Harry Potter. He's three foot six, and Ricky and I

worked with him recently on extras.

0:39.4

And far from asking us about the many celebrity names that we've worked with,

0:43.5

the only person he was interested in talking about, of course, Mr. Kay Pilkington.

He got drunk really quick. But he was all right, but it took me by surprise. Only because like I've said about when I met Steve for the first time, it's only that same thing. And then if I lived with the little fellow, I'm sure we'd get on a storm. There's a TV show waiting to happen. What did you mean when you met Steve for the first time? No, we've done it, you know, when he walked in it, just a bit of, oh, he's different. But then I see Steve every week and, you know, the same way I say I like watching Elephant Man, from the first time I watched it to the last, totally different. When he walks in the first time, it's like, oh God, look at that. It's a mess, isn't it? When I watch it again, it's kind of like, oh, here he is, here he is, John. So it doesn't, things wear off.
