Hello, hello Mickey here. I hope you're in some sort of cheese coma or perhaps you're

one of those up and at in types who run a marathon before sunrise. In either case, well

done you. Now, even if you're new to standard issue, you'll have noticed we have a lot

of content. Well done us. But what we've not had a lot of over the past couple of years

is the live gigs that then become gig cast because you know the world. Anyway, that gave

each of us the perfect excuse to revisit one of our favourites. So, allow me to take you

back in time. Is that time travel noise? I don't know. Pretend it was time travel noise.

The September 2017, when the boss and I chatted to Olivia Coleman, Kerry Godleman and

Jenny Eclare. I mean, what a lineup. All three of our guests were utterly brilliant charming

and very, very funny. And I still crack up thinking of Jenny Eclare being the bravest little

girl in the world. No one knows. No one knows how brave she is. But I have chosen this

one specifically for Olivia Coleman. One, because she's so damn busy now, we wouldn't

have a fart in trousers chance of getting her on the podcast. And two, because turns

out, Olivia Coleman and I have something fairly big in common. And apparently, it's disgusted.

This was a real joy to revisit. May you have as much fun as I did.

Welcome to the standard issue podcast. Should we introduce ourselves? Do you want to

start making you know where did you start? So, your name, what you do and a random fact

about yourself. Okay. My name is Mickey Noonan and I'm the editor of Standard Issue magazine.

And when I was little, I thought the cat looked a little bit untidy, so I trimmed his whiskers.

I mean, couldn't go out for a month. Well, he couldn't, but he couldn't come back in,

I guess. No, he just couldn't measure it. He can't measure, yeah.

Oh, bless. Oh, okay. Jenny. Oh, hello. My name's Jenny Eclare. Only it isn't not in real life.
