0:06.1

Morning, everybody, welcome along to your free podcast for today.

0:09.1

This is the final one before the weekend.

0:11.9

The reason it's being Thursday, the 8th of June, apparently something's going on.

0:16.0

I can't talk about it.

0:16.9

Okay, but I'm not here tomorrow.

0:19.6

Not here tomorrow, but I will be with you Saturday morning. Best of Steve Allen and In Conversation and this week for In Conversation. It's the neighbours actress Jackie Woodburn, which we're all very excited about, and also superstar from so many films, Dan Aykroyd, who's talking about, I nearly said whiskey, but it's not, it's something even better than that, it's vodka.

0:40.7

And flying saucers and, good Lord, we cross the big divide on this one.

1:15.9

oh, God, it's Sarah Ferguson again. But they had four candles, his armchair, and everything else,

1:22.1

and there were all sorts of people there. In fact, you know, ordinary members of the public were

1:25.7

allowed in. Also, Bruce Forsyth's

1:28.4

wife, Wilnelia was there, although Brucey was at, he's 89, he's allowed to be absent, I think.

1:35.3

And then if I saw on the television, Rob Bryden choked up a little bit when he was sort of reading

1:40.2

because he used to phone him and he does a very good impression of Ronnie Corbett. Very good impression. And he saved a lot of the answer phone messages, which I thought

1:49.8

was quite sweet, actually. So that's a very good impression, Rob Bryden. Also out at the Royal Academy
