This is LVC from

0:04

Global, leading Britain's conversation

0:07

with Steve Allen. Lolly, everybody, welcome

0:09

to Monday. I know traditionally it's not the day

0:11

we we like the most, is it because you go all the

0:13

weekend should have been longer, but at least when you get these

0:15

snow, As far as I know, we didn't get any snow,

0:17

not down in London. We didn't. We had the

0:19

train strike, the bus strike, little sorts

0:22

of striking, and then it was an incident on Richmond

0:24

Bridge. So they closed that off so that divert

0:26

all the buses. And

0:29

Ellie Taylor exited strictly,

0:32

so she's gone. Although, I don't know the fence I

0:34

do as she was. I'm a bit worried

0:36

about these things. They go to the celebrity version.

0:38

I go, yeah, oh, wait till they go, she's a comedian. I

0:40

go, I've never heard of her. Definitely help.

0:43

The late these role is asked to six friends

0:45

help out Camilla, which is

0:47

which is very nice. So they're not having the ladies

0:49

in waiting. They've decided to suspect to them.

0:51

They're just going to have friends helping

0:54

out. Prince Andrew is fuming because

0:57

they've taken away his police protections. So in other

0:59

words, when the poor boy goes out riding and

1:01

go by himself because the police

1:03

will not be there for him unless

1:04

he's paying and begin

1:07

to wonder if he's actually got any money left. He'd had

1:09

to borrow twelve million from the Queen

1:11

to pay off junior Capri. And

1:14

so three million quid a year. Is that just I just

1:16

told told Darren, it was costing us three million

1:19

a year. When following on concerning Fen for

1:21

himself, I don't get police protection, producer

1:23

didn't get police Nobody gets police

1:25

protection. Why should he get police protection? What's

1:27

he frightened of? Part

1:28

from everybody, I should imagine. What

1:31

was oh, tonight's the British Curry Award to

1:33

police curry right now, but it's never gonna be happening. Is

1:35

it any time soon? And and

1:38

and and and the good news is

1:41

is Jack gonna get some milk? Good.

1:43

I need my milk jack preferably

1:45

today. If we bring the cow in,

1:48

that'd be quite nice idea. And

1:50

do you remember Got

1:52

it. Seems ages ago. We were

1:54

talking about make some noise. And we

1:59

sold

1:59

out the show at the Leicester Square

2:02

Theatre. That went very quickly, which all sells

2:04

out, but didn't have an item. We

2:06

didn't have an item to sell to

2:09

you to raise money, and

2:11

we have it this morning. We have

2:13

it right now. I have it

2:16

practically in front of me. And if

2:18

you go to the LBC website,

2:20

lbc dot co dot

2:22

ukip. What are you up

2:24

here for? What are you up here for? You're

2:27

after something, aren't you? I can tell. You're

2:29

after sweets? Is he after sweets? Or is he looking

2:31

at the picture? Oh, you got sweets

2:33

already? honestly. Oh, and you too.

2:36

Where's my milk? Another way

2:38

you stand here, they're eating my sweets and you don't go

2:40

and get my milk for my cup of tea. It'll be

2:42

stone cold if you're not careful. move.

2:45

Are you looking at the picture of the other website?

2:47

If you go to LBC dot co dot UKI

2:49

think it's right hand side, you scroll down,

2:52

and you'll find the

2:55

tea towel, the Steve Allen Royalty,

2:58

tea towel, and very

3:00

nicely is two. and you can

3:02

find again, we've waited ages for it,

3:04

waited ages for it. And if you

3:06

click on, you can actually

3:08

get hold of one of them. All

3:10

the money raised goes to

3:13

check. And we've got a bigger picture. Did they they

3:15

only got sort of half a picture? Is there a bigger

3:17

picture of it? do you think? I

3:19

don't It is only a

3:21

little picture at the moment, isn't it? But it's oh,

3:23

there it is. There it is. Look at

3:25

that. that

3:27

makes them noise shop. And

3:29

you can you can pay, you

3:32

can buy it, and We

3:34

did these pictures the other weekend. You could tell them we're in

3:36

the same shirt in all of them. And

3:39

and you're not seeing the the teeth. Yeah. It's

3:41

it's nice actually. So it's LBC's

3:43

red euro to in color. If

3:45

I was I might as well be wearing the tape down.

3:48

And the idea is I've got a

3:51

limited number. The artwork is by

3:53

Robert Lee Henspe. And

3:55

so it's who did the first one for us. So

3:57

it's a must have

3:59

Steve Allen, radio royalty, tea

4:02

towel, and I would love

4:04

for

4:04

you to buy one so that we can raise

4:07

some money to make some noise. All those

4:09

little charities, which I've told you about

4:11

over the years, who don't have

4:14

the funding in place to keep going.

4:16

Many of them fall by the wayside.

4:18

And so the idea of setting up

4:20

makes some noise. was

4:23

so that money can

4:25

improve the lives of disadvantaged people

4:27

across the UK. And we believe that everybody

4:29

deserves to feel safe, feel well

4:31

feel included and feel prepared.

4:33

So we deal with mental health. We deal

4:35

with all sorts of things.

4:37

And the money raised goes

4:39

for that charity. And

4:41

with your help, we raised this

4:43

year, and this is going to add to it.

4:45

I think in excess of two million pounds

4:48

in the day, to raise money for all these

4:50

little charities. Now this royalty tea towel

4:52

is the perfect gift. For

4:54

the early breakfast, LBC fan, in

4:56

your life is Christmas or as a

4:58

gift for yourself. It's a must have I

5:00

mean, you don't have to use it as a

5:02

tea towel. You could just sort of hang it on the wall.

5:04

You can buy these lovely hangers now

5:06

and you just slide it into it and you just hang

5:08

it on the wall because it's a it's a

5:10

piece of memorabilia. And as all of our

5:12

memorabilia, it's in limited

5:14

supply. So we have

5:16

a a limited number of

5:18

these tea towels. I mean, we've got a lovely

5:20

lady standing by just to

5:22

let us know how many were selling at any one

5:24

time. And so all the money goes

5:26

to make some noise. I mean, I know it's taken

5:28

ages. We've sort of put it off. And

5:31

finally, it is here. And it goes

5:33

towards helping all those little charities.

5:35

And I've told you before some of the heartbreaking

5:38

stories, you know, dealing

5:40

with, I think we we we've ported

5:42

over a hundred brilliant small charotives,

5:44

you know, from charities delivering food

5:46

banks, mental health programs, domestic

5:48

violence, health lines, career support

5:51

and other vital support programs.

5:53

So by you just buying this tea towel and one

5:55

hundred percent,

5:57

of the money raised goes to the

5:59

charity make

5:59

some noise. And I would like to think

6:02

that we could help out so many little chair I

6:04

mean, small charities, as you know, are the unsung

6:06

heroes at the heart of the communities.

6:08

And they know firsthand what it's like

6:10

to live through the toughest of circumstances. And

6:13

that's why we raise money, raise

6:15

awareness, and raise the bar

6:17

for small and local charities because

6:19

everybody should feel included.

6:21

And so we've helped out so many little challenges

6:23

with your help. You are

6:25

the people who are the backbone of

6:27

this organization. You're the people

6:29

who go to the LBC website,

6:31

who go down and who would order, one

6:33

or two tea towels. I'd be grateful for anything.

6:36

Gateful for anything where somebody orders

6:38

a tea towel and you can have it delivered

6:40

to you. and it'll be there as quickly as we

6:42

can possibly get it. It's only limited

6:44

edition. Oh, it's cute. We never done

6:46

any color before. If you remember the other one,

6:48

we did was only in blue and white.

6:50

So now we've got full color,

6:53

full color tea towel, and

6:55

you end up with something and the money

6:57

that you give us for the tea towel

6:59

goes to the charities. And I would

7:01

like to I would like to think that we shifted

7:03

quite a few hundred before the end of the program.

7:06

but I'm entirely in your hands this morning as you

7:08

can imagine because it's

7:10

the first time I've seen the pictures that they But

7:12

I quite like the pictures actually. I I can

7:14

I could quite live with that. I could

7:16

the crown is super. But so

7:18

that's honestly with with just a simple thing

7:21

like that, we can we can raise

7:23

a lot of money with your help. And

7:26

as always, I say, on behalf

7:28

of the little people, the little people

7:30

who sometimes don't even get a look in because they

7:32

don't get national funding or anything. They

7:34

rely very much on the donations

7:36

that come from people like you.

7:39

People like you who are generous enough to pick

7:41

up a telephone or go to a computer

7:43

at this time of the morning and put

7:45

in LBC dot co dot u k

7:47

and go to the make some noise shop

7:50

and you'll find all the stuff on

7:52

there. So they're they're there now

7:54

at this time of the morning. And

7:56

it's a it's a lovely thing to see,

7:58

and I hope it raises lots of money

7:59

for them because that's what we're in the business of. And

8:02

if you're very kind and you've bought

8:04

all the other merchandise that we've had from the

8:06

the tray to the glasses, all

8:08

sorts of things. This is something that you can add

8:11

to

8:11

the list of

8:13

memorabilia for the early breakfast shows.

8:15

So just go to the website, LBC

8:18

dot co dot u k. Click on the

8:20

shop and

8:20

you can then order the

8:22

tea towel or two

8:24

or three. or

8:26

even five. You could order as many as you like.

8:28

I would be very, very happy with any.

8:30

She's at fifty would be nice. A friend of mine

8:32

ordered a hundred last time.

8:34

he

8:34

ordered a hundred tea towels. I

8:37

couldn't believe it either. I couldn't believe

8:39

it either. And when we first did it,

8:41

you remember with Corey, and with

8:43

Thomas. And we'd never done anything like this before

8:45

when we did the first tea time. We really We

8:47

didn't know what to expect, and

8:49

we were shifting tea towels like

8:51

there was no tomorrow. You thoroughly thought we'd

8:53

invented the word tea towel. And

8:55

Thomas was going backwards and forwards and Corrie's going. We

8:57

just sold another hundred. And I

8:59

was going fantastic, you know, that

9:02

and it was it was the most exciting

9:04

thing that we'd ever done. And so all the years

9:06

back, we've come up with all these different

9:08

items, but I think putting it in color

9:11

just tips it

9:12

over the edge a little bit, so we get radio

9:14

royalty. So please go to the

9:16

LBC website, go

9:18

to the global make some noise, feature,

9:21

click on the shop, and you will

9:23

find it. And you could you could decide if you

9:25

like it. I hope you do like it

9:27

because we we think it's

9:29

actually really cool we think

9:31

it's really really cool. So

9:33

please please, you know,

9:37

please sort of go and and

9:39

purchase a tea towel because all the money raised

9:41

goes to help the the

9:43

charities. So I'll mention that again a little bit later

9:45

on, which is fantastic. Ellie

9:47

Taylor's exited strictly. I

9:49

don't know why she did actually. I mean, to be

9:51

honest with you, they were all they were sort of

9:53

moaning about her. They thought she probably surely

9:55

balanced, I think, came in with some stick again.

9:58

you know, because you get the the so called

9:59

trolls, which I

10:01

always love out here. I love the trolls because they're

10:03

they're so funny and

10:05

and so desperately sad at

10:07

the same time. Matt

10:09

Hancock gets all the front pages of the papers yet.

10:11

He lost he lost.

10:13

He didn't win at all. And yet, he would

10:15

think that he'd have won the blumen thing, but

10:17

he didn't, I'm afraid, which I'm very

10:19

pleased about. Also Suela,

10:22

Orders are pleased to get tougher with the eco protesters

10:24

because apparently now they're gonna start walking

10:26

round roundabouts for, you know,

10:28

obviously, nothing better. Well, let's just

10:30

arrest them. just arrest them. If they're holding up

10:32

there, if they're walking, you know, in the road, they

10:34

get arrested. It's as simple as that. Get

10:36

them in court, shove them in prison, let them

10:38

bloody won't stay there for six months. I couldn't

10:40

care less. You have

10:43

to go onto the website to find out the

10:45

prices for the tea towels. They're

10:48

fifty I believe, but I ensure you have the intelligence to

10:50

manage that actually. I've just noticed when you got

10:52

ten followers, so obviously not as popular as you'd

10:54

thought you were. Aren't you really? Nile

10:56

wants to know what they call tea towels

10:58

because they are

11:02

for

11:02

wiping tea things. Tea

11:04

things. Yes. In fact, really,

11:06

I always advise people not to use tea

11:08

towels. Buy

11:09

it as a souvenir, but you don't

11:12

need to use it because then

11:14

it'll last twice as long,

11:17

which

11:17

is lovely. I mean, I would hang it on the wall.

11:20

Although

11:20

somebody said to me the other day, I'd I'd

11:22

they'd order them. We sold fifty

11:24

already. Sorry.

11:25

I nearly swore. I nearly

11:27

swore then. Then he made me swear.

11:29

So we sold fifty already, which

11:31

is fantastic. which is

11:33

fantastic. Do you want to be in it on it? Do you

11:35

want to miss out on these ones? Their own

11:37

globals make some noise website. So go to

11:39

LBC's website LBC

11:42

dot co dot u k.

11:44

Scroll down, you'll find the picture,

11:46

and then it'll say how to order.

11:49

And and you can go on

11:51

globals make some noise shop

11:53

and that's the direct way to get to it.

11:55

So globals make some noise

11:57

shop and then you can find it as well.

11:59

You can have a good but but

11:59

peruse it. It is

12:01

a teacher with a picture of me, a cartoon

12:03

of me on it. So so

12:06

that's nice. fifty already. Look at that.

12:08

Then we're going ten minutes. Crikey,

12:10

honestly. At this rate, we could sell

12:12

out. As you remember when we did it last

12:14

time, we sold an

12:16

awful lot on one one program, and we

12:18

were sitting here counting then the producers going,

12:20

which has sold it on a hundred, and we were

12:22

saying, and and it then became a challenge.

12:24

a

12:25

challenge to sell them because if you'd

12:27

seen what I'd seen,

12:29

some of these little charities helping,

12:31

you know, all sorts of people.

12:33

We've we've spread the net far and wide

12:36

and, you know, to help charities with

12:38

little children who need

12:40

help. They need help.

12:42

Sometimes, you know, this is all they've

12:44

actually got. They've got their mummies and

12:46

their daddies, not always. And then

12:48

they've got these fantastic organizations

12:50

that that go

12:52

out of their their way to

12:56

to sort

12:56

of to sort of help them.

12:58

And that's all I can suggest to you.

13:00

you they're the unsung heroes.

13:03

My friend Chris says, if you just put in Steve

13:05

Allen T towel, your own

13:07

home page comes up straight

13:09

away. There you go. There you

13:11

go. And miss mister

13:13

Neil says love

13:15

it.

13:16

Love it. I think it's great. It's because it's in

13:18

color and because

13:20

we can raise some money, as I say,

13:22

to help people, it's all

13:25

shut up. Nothing worse than the phone that comes

13:27

back to life and to judge dreadful.

13:29

But thank you.

13:31

Seventy two was sold already. Be nice if we

13:33

could sell a hundred by twenty past. You

13:35

know, that'd that'd be pushing it. That'd be pushing

13:37

it. We'll we'll take a break and then we'll let you

13:39

know. Okay?

13:40

This is LVC. Steve

13:43

Hello on LVC. Morning

13:45

every eighteen minutes past four so the

13:47

tea towels out now

13:49

in color. Radio royalty. Are the

13:52

global's make some noise website? Go to the website,

13:54

click on the shop, and you find it.

13:56

And just to remind you again that makes

13:58

some noise your money, helps us

13:59

to support a hundred brilliant small

14:02

charities and local communities, charities

14:04

delivering food banks, mental health

14:06

programs, domestic violence,

14:08

help lines, care, support, community

14:11

projects, and other vital

14:13

life support programs. and you

14:15

could download the global player app onto your phone

14:17

from the App Store or the Google

14:19

Play Store. So thank you very

14:21

much indeed for that. and

14:24

a lot of people have ordered. And

14:27

a jan from the Queen's Theatre says

14:29

it's up to the usual Queen's Theatre.

14:31

She says, morning bought

14:33

one, you'll soon sell out. That

14:35

would be nice. That would

14:37

be a bit of an achievement. Wouldn't it? But it's very

14:39

nice indeed. And thank you so far. for

14:41

for purchasing because all the money raise

14:44

goes to charity. So we'll

14:46

we'll come back to that, but it's still open. So

14:48

take your time doing it. I think they

14:50

take all the credit cards. It's all on there.

14:52

Not difficult at all. So in I,

14:54

mister Leb, believe it or not, the person who won

14:56

was Jill. And yet

14:58

all the pictures were Matt Hancock.

15:00

You'd seriously believe he came third.

15:02

That's called noosing, but

15:04

it doesn't matter because the money that

15:06

they paid him, he got the most coverage

15:09

for that program. Nobody else got as much

15:11

coverage as he did. I'm a bit disappointed

15:13

actually for Paul Jill. bearing

15:15

her teeth, tackling her her

15:17

task, and then Hancock leaves,

15:19

and then his his girlfriend sort

15:21

of throws herself around him on the bridge and the

15:23

fireworks go off and all the but

15:25

she was the winner. She was

15:27

the winner. Oh, so

15:29

we've done a hundred tea

15:31

towels already. keep going at

15:33

this rate. We're gonna be doing very well.

15:35

Very well. Thank you. So

15:37

hundred sold already. So if you'd

15:39

like to add to it, I would

15:41

love for you to spend some money with us

15:43

this morning for our charity

15:45

make some noise. A Yorkshire

15:47

pudding based beer is on sale in

15:49

Alder. It's got half a pudding in each

15:51

bottle, sure about that. Sounds a

15:53

bit weird in there. Yorkshire

15:55

pudding. And the queen laughed off a threat to her

15:57

life from a crossbow maniac. There's a new

15:59

book out It's by Giles' brandriff.

16:02

And there's all sorts of things in there. He

16:04

first met the queen in fifty nine.

16:07

And I think

16:08

he sort of not became a confidant, but

16:11

put it to me if if you read something by

16:13

Charles Brandarth about the queen, you can pretty

16:15

much guarantee but

16:16

what he's telling you is the truth.

16:19

And so, you know, she was a bit of a

16:21

royal joker. She also worked

16:23

very very hard. And King Charles

16:25

has raised the price of his watercolor

16:27

prints. They've gone from two and a half thousand

16:29

to three and a half thousand. Princess

16:32

Charlotte, is to become the duchess of

16:35

Edinburgh after King Charles not to give Prince

16:37

Edward the title, a seven

16:39

year old who is third in line to the

16:41

throne. She's seven. What'd you do

16:43

at seven? And a

16:45

former head of royal protection has

16:47

slammed Prince Andrew for demanding to

16:49

keep armed cops. The king's brother is

16:51

arguing against having his three

16:53

million pound round the clock police

16:55

protection removed. After

16:57

being stripped of all official duties, former

16:59

top cop, Di Davis. as

17:01

a good welsh name, isn't there? Said the money used

17:03

to protect Andrew could be better used

17:05

solving thousands of crimes in London. He

17:07

says, why should we pander to this over

17:10

in slated Egotist called Andrew. I couldn't agree

17:12

more. I couldn't agree more. Three million pound

17:14

a year. That can that can do a lot of good.

17:17

my god. If we had that for make some noise charity, that

17:19

would be fantastic. That would be absolutely,

17:21

you know, minting us. Absolutely minting

17:23

us. But it's a case of

17:26

you know, prince Andrew has nothing to do with the royal

17:28

family anymore. He's been sort

17:30

of deposed together with Harry, so

17:32

he doesn't get the the police

17:34

protection. Why should he? Why should

17:36

he? I don't

17:37

get police protection. I mean, is he a target or

17:39

something? Have we I mean, does that make it why can't

17:41

he pay for it? because they've got no money.

17:44

To borrow money from his mother, if you remember, from

17:46

from last time, not

17:48

not so brilliant, was it?

17:51

men with big ears are the best

17:53

lovers apparently. So I'm

17:56

just

17:56

checking, doing a

17:57

bit disappointing on it. disappointing.

17:59

Apparently, Rachel Emery told how

18:02

she looked

18:02

out for a man with huge ears. She said, big

18:04

ears are more manly, and I'm asking for herself for them

18:06

a huge turn on. big

18:09

ears. I mean, I'm sort of tempted to

18:11

ask Naughty, whether or not, you know, there's anything, you know,

18:13

he he he wants to tell us. And the good

18:15

news is for those people who like potatoes,

18:18

They can help you shed the pounds. Scientists

18:21

found replacing meat with

18:23

lower calorie spuds can boost weight loss

18:25

with little effort. Well, there you go.

18:27

That's me sorted out. Thank you very much indeed. I don't

18:30

mind going for that. And

18:32

a lot of people buying the

18:35

the tea towels

18:37

Someone says, I've just bought

18:39

mine to add to my collection. Yeah.

18:41

And then Iain says, I use

18:43

tea towels when I'm cooking. I be hands on something?

18:45

Yes. I mean, I'm I'm a fan of

18:48

that. Paul Shane says, it looks like you

18:50

know, by the tea towel in the UK,

18:52

what you need to do is somebody in the UK

18:54

who can buy it for you

18:57

and then send it over. That's the way

18:59

you obviously

18:59

can't buy it direct

19:03

But we're all in favor of it. We're

19:05

all in favor of it. But if you can get

19:07

hold of one good, but just

19:09

put in Steve Allentitown, your

19:11

own home page comes up straight away, says my

19:13

friend, Chris Dothur. He went out

19:15

the other night. I think he went to these

19:17

sun awards. That's all these people who'd

19:19

got awards and there's pictures in all

19:21

the papers and everybody looking

19:23

looking wonderful. Hollywood obesity,

19:25

went off to the BBC the other

19:27

day, and they went to the Variety Club

19:29

show business awards. And

19:33

they say she was the guest of Honor. I don't know why

19:35

she'd be the guest of Honor. If they want to, they

19:37

just go and approach her agent and she goes over there,

19:39

but I don't think she wants to.

19:41

So it was at the Hilton hotel on the park lane.

19:43

The beep have had a reminder for several project.

19:45

This sounds like an agent putting

19:48

the feeder who said really after, you know, they're really after it. And she

19:50

was invited, special guest of honor. Why would she be

19:52

guest of honor? She's on the blockchain every

19:54

day, but don't run the television anymore. Thank you

19:56

very much indeed. They

19:58

say she's squeaky, clean, family

20:00

friendly, and fun TV star. She's

20:02

mad as a broomstick. What are you talking

20:04

about? She's into all these ruins

20:07

and all sorts of strange stones and

20:09

crystals and healing and that baloney

20:11

stuff that they feed you. You know, if you

20:13

touch this sort of stone, it gives you heat. No,

20:15

it doesn't. No, it really doesn't. It's a piece

20:17

of stone. That's all it is.

20:19

There's a police woman. She's called

20:21

herself

20:21

officer Norte. and

20:23

she is

20:23

bit naughty. This is Sam

20:26

Helena was suspended and

20:28

faced a Met police disciplinary hearing

20:31

starting an only fan's sex

20:33

subscription page. Oh, god,

20:35

honestly. Apparently, the self styled

20:37

Good Girl gone bad as a cartoon

20:39

emoji. She'd be given words of advice

20:41

in twenty twenty for sharing aaunchy video,

20:44

o takie takie. How could you ever, you know,

20:46

they're not allowed to do things like

20:48

that. believed in her late twenties, since

20:50

I would say very late twenties by the

20:52

look of it. And she won

20:54

support from some officers over her

20:56

previous run-in with the met over her sexy of

20:59

antics. However,

21:00

retired

21:01

DCI Mick Neville says we're

21:03

all entitled to a private life

21:06

But when you become a PC, you sign up to the code of ethics,

21:08

not some old tar to appear to take

21:10

their clothes off of the money. How can

21:12

you tell? Can anybody ever take you seriously?

21:15

You

21:15

can't. They said the

21:17

the last thing the commissioner needs is a

21:19

stripping WPC, calling itself

21:22

officer Normandy. I

21:23

mean, what you bother wasting everybody's time and going into the police for

21:25

fall of? Was there some reason why you decided

21:27

to waste everybody's time? You know, if you'd wanted

21:29

to be a stripper and take all your things

21:32

often show you bits. Well, that's fine.

21:34

But don't don't pretend to be a police

21:36

officer, you're very un PCPC

21:40

Thank you very much indeed. I mean, you know, it's

21:42

it's it's it's I think it's a bit tacky, isn't it,

21:44

really? I found anybody who has to do things like that.

21:46

There's a picture in the paper of

21:49

of Jordan. So I'm trying to think of somebody's

21:51

career had disappeared. You know, they say, oh,

21:53

she's changed her hair again. No. She just

21:55

stuck new extensions on. stop

21:57

changing your hair. That's called sticking

21:59

extensions on. Not so matter

22:01

with these people. They get very worried. And

22:03

Lianne Pinck will be getting into hip hop

22:05

with her solo career, She's working one of the genre's

22:07

biggest producers. Doesn't mean you doesn't

22:09

mean you're gonna have success there.

22:11

You can you can be working with loads of really

22:13

good people. The little mixed star has been in the

22:15

studios with Chauncey Hollis better known

22:17

as hit boy. But,

22:19

you know,

22:19

if if it don't work, it don't work, you

22:22

could you could be recording with just about

22:24

everybody you can think of, but it doesn't really

22:26

mean it. You know, you were probably good in the

22:28

group. Let's say she spent time in

22:30

LA working on tracks early

22:32

this year. they make it sound like it's such big

22:34

deal, don't they? Somebody goes, is the song love

22:36

sing it? What's my motivation?

22:39

A career. Okay. Sing

22:41

it. or you're out. So they go into the studio. Look

22:43

at it. Who's that one who was in the

22:46

she was married to the football, whose name I now

22:48

can't remember. and

22:50

Louise Redknapp, where did that album

22:53

go?

22:53

Vanish. Vanish. I

22:54

was offering advice. I

22:56

was offering advice saying, listen, don't

22:59

go back in the studio. It's it's

23:01

nylon Impossible nowadays unless

23:03

you've got the backing of big record

23:06

companies. you know, and management to

23:08

actually push you forward. You're fighting

23:10

a losing battle. Yeah.

23:11

Louise Redknapp, knee

23:15

nerding, She was a member of Eternal and

23:17

she

23:17

was a member that debuted

23:19

in ninety three with their Quadruple Platinum

23:22

Studio album always and forever.

23:24

She forty eight now, which is

23:26

but the trouble is she ain't no kindly. Even

23:28

though she does these, you know, revealing

23:31

photo shoots where we show a little bit of boob and a

23:33

little bit of and you think to yourself, it's a bit

23:35

it's a bit nervous, isn't it really?

23:37

You think even the trouble is

23:39

the fan that ain't gonna sell records

23:42

fun, you know, all all she'll get is an appearance

23:44

on loose women. You know, and I'm not sure

23:46

how many records they sell, you know,

23:48

promoting people. T

23:51

towels sales count, one

23:53

hundred and fifty four. Be nice

23:55

to push it to two hundred by half past.

23:57

I'd be very happy with hundred by half past.

23:59

I'd be

23:59

very very happy. Thank you very much

24:02

indeed. So all you have to do is because

24:04

they're on the global's make some noise website. Go to the website, click on

24:06

the shop, and you find it. It's as simple

24:08

as that. Hundred hundred and seventy. What what did I say?

24:10

It was a minute ago. just

24:13

gone up again. This is so exciting.

24:14

I get quite excited by this. You have

24:16

no idea because I know the good that

24:18

this money can do for

24:21

little charities, for little children. And

24:23

if ever you've seen children

24:24

who are quite seriously ill, you

24:26

know, you'd be reaching into your

24:29

pocket immediately and producing a credit card

24:31

because they don't have anybody to

24:33

fight for them

24:34

apart from their their parents and

24:36

these fantastic little cherishes are

24:39

hundred that we've we've discovered,

24:41

small, brilliant charities and local

24:43

communities all over the country, all

24:45

doing their very best to help people

24:47

be it through food banks, be it through anything at all. Some

24:49

of these children are very seriously ill.

24:52

I told you I went to one place

24:55

where I met a little

24:57

boy who was in a wheelchair,

24:59

and he wanted to be a pilot. That's what

25:01

he wanted to be. And his mom said, it's not

25:03

gonna happen. gonna

25:04

happen because he was getting ill

25:06

as the weeks

25:07

went by. There was no chance that he was ever

25:09

going to be a pilot, but it was his

25:11

dream. That's what his dream of. He was only

25:13

young. And I remember thinking, you know, you'd give

25:15

all the money that you ever had

25:17

to help save somebody's life. If you

25:19

thought it was gonna make them you know,

25:21

a hundred times better if it was gonna make their dream

25:23

come true because every child has a

25:26

dream. And especially at this time of year

25:28

at Christmas, you know, for some of charities

25:30

who supply presents and things like

25:32

that for these kids because their their

25:34

parents can't afford to buy

25:37

presence. They've got bills to worry about and a very

25:39

presence come a little bit further down

25:41

the scale than, you know, having to get

25:43

some heating on. I mean, earlier on, I was listening

25:45

to down as woman who's living in a car.

25:48

You

25:48

know, there was a couple earlier on. I

25:50

read about them over the weekend. They're living on the

25:52

roof of their house. They're

25:54

they're literally living on the roof

25:56

of their house because they can't afford

25:58

to do anything. And some of

25:59

these these charities that we we

26:02

deal with They do so much

26:04

good to help little people

26:06

or elderly people or victims of

26:08

domestic violence or carers.

26:10

Carers don't even go look in nowadays.

26:12

on charities. I've seen them on the television. I think

26:14

there was one. Noel Edmonds

26:16

did it years ago, and it was he

26:18

did his Christmas presence and it was a little

26:21

girl. and she had to get up in the get her parents

26:23

ready because they she was their

26:25

carer. And so he

26:26

took her away and they met Jed Wood and all

26:28

the rest of it, and she loved it. That was

26:31

that that one moment with the money that

26:33

we raise today, hopefully,

26:35

we can help even more people

26:38

thanks

26:38

to you. Let's

26:39

take a look at the news headline.

26:41

Shall we this morning with

26:43

Tim Daily? Steve, hello.

26:45

On LVC, text

26:47

84850 Morning.

26:49

I'll

26:49

give you an update on the tea

26:52

towels. In a moment, you

26:54

can find on Global's Make some

26:56

Noise website. Go to the website, click

26:58

on the shop, and you can

26:59

find it, and we should get them out to you

27:01

as fast as Oulu. We're doing

27:03

better. doing better. Every time I sort of mention

27:05

it, we go up another thirty or forty,

27:07

and now we're up to

27:09

two

27:09

hundred and two. two

27:11

hundred and two. Almost rhyming because

27:14

all the money raised goes to make

27:16

some noise and to help out

27:18

all these little charities, the

27:20

community projects, and the and the people who don't

27:22

get a look in, if

27:24

you'd seen what I saw, as I say,

27:26

you'd put your hands in your pocket and just say

27:28

take it. I've sometimes done that with people

27:30

on the street. You see

27:32

somebody. And they just look

27:34

as though they're at the end of their tether look because they

27:36

haven't got anything to look forward to, and it's so

27:38

blooming freezing cold out there.

27:40

You you just sort of, you know, and

27:42

sometimes I have given ten pounds

27:44

to somebody. what they spend it on is really nothing to do with

27:46

me. But if it if it makes them feel a bit better,

27:48

then get a hot meal or something like that, well,

27:50

that's that's great. Marcus in

27:52

Sunny Manchester, Oh,

27:54

please. Not at this time of the morning, it can't

27:56

be. He says, I bought two tea towels, one

27:58

to use for drying, my tears,

28:00

because you crack me up and one for

28:02

the dishes. hope you sell thousands. Yes. I'm I'm hoping

28:04

to, which would be quite nice. And

28:06

Joanne says I really enjoyed

28:08

the film last holiday

28:10

with Alec Guinness Also bought one

28:13

of the tea towels pretty quirky and

28:15

colorful. It is definitely quirky and

28:17

colorful definitely. And

28:19

Mary says I bought two, one for me, one

28:21

for my lunch Arty Rhodes, they make a

28:23

perfect match to your magical mug.

28:25

Thank you. And and

28:27

somebody says I've just bought mine to add to

28:30

my collection. Yes. Matt says,

28:32

I know you were in Vienna for a while or wondering if

28:34

you weren't in London, what would be your next best

28:36

world city to live in? I don't think

28:38

there is anything as good as London. I mean, I'd

28:40

been to Vienna and worked in Vienna for nine

28:42

years, you know,

28:43

on and off twice a year. I used to go out there for

28:45

sort of three weeks. So I was doing six weeks

28:47

a year in Vienna. And I do

28:49

like Vienna. I do like it, but I

28:51

was out there to work

28:53

and getting up, you know, in

28:55

the early hours of the morning to go into a breakfast

28:57

show. on the ORF. I loved it. I

28:59

did like Vienna. It's it's only good in the summer

29:01

Vienna. And the winter is freezing.

29:03

I can't tell you, hotter than

29:05

here in the summer. Yeah.

29:07

But in the winter, it's freezing. In fact, over there,

29:09

it's compulsory to have snow chains to

29:12

watch on your car because there's so many hills in

29:14

Vienna and be going out with a friend

29:16

of mine. Andrew, ages and

29:18

ages. Yeah. And we go this and then we start sliding

29:20

back down again. I remember that, no, we

29:22

got a crash into cars.

29:24

And we did. And we did. Steve,

29:26

you pulled up the make some noise shopping seconds,

29:28

added the radio royalty detail to my cart,

29:30

but on checkout, looks

29:33

like shipping is only to the UK.

29:35

It says shipping all the way to Michigan

29:37

would cut into the rechargeable process.

29:39

Yeah, it would actually. it would. But ask a

29:41

friend. Find find a friend who you know in this country,

29:43

and then they can sort of buy it, and then

29:45

they can send it out to you, which makes it

29:47

a little bit easier. there

29:49

is the problem. Information on it

29:52

is. Oh, there is information. Oh,

29:54

right. We're hoping so. We're waiting on

29:56

international shipping information. Okay?

29:58

So when when we get anything,

30:00

you will hear it first. You

30:02

will hear it first. You know, every

30:04

time I am at the paper, OT Mabus

30:06

here, sort of there gridding away, and

30:08

I'm thinking she must have a new agent. because

30:10

now she's gonna follow in the footsteps of Hollywood

30:12

Abubian, Gwyneth Paltrow. and

30:15

she's

30:15

she's moving her dance studio to

30:18

a posh part

30:19

of the studio. She's in West London at the moment. She

30:21

thinks that's not posh. So

30:23

she's moving to Central London. So I think even nice nice

30:26

lifestyle, pilates, yoga, spinning.

30:28

My mindset now isn't only creative,

30:30

it's business. Yeah. Whatever.

30:33

whatever. Who is it? It came up the other day with something? Oh,

30:36

Scarlet Moffett. Because it's

30:38

taken her thirteen attempts to pass her

30:40

driving test. The BBC Bafoons

30:42

are the first order. And now making a

30:44

program about passing your driving test. What's the

30:46

point of asking her? Thirteen

30:49

attempts. I that's down an idiot level,

30:51

isn't it? I wouldn't want her anywhere at

30:53

all. She finally passed after she

30:55

re reveals all sorts of interesting things

30:57

like the first place she drove to is

30:59

McDonald's for chicken nuggets. Hello. Hello.

31:04

Ridiculous. So

31:05

she went there. She's she fifteen years

31:07

were tempted to pass her test, but to

31:09

confess, she still cannot park.

31:12

I

31:12

wouldn't take any advice for her on a television program.

31:14

Thank you very much indeed. No. Thank you.

31:16

I mean, honestly, I've seen the prep

31:19

but I'm to go and get some chicken McNuggets. You're sure that's a good

31:21

idea, love. Barry says I've just

31:23

bought two g towels like the color. I

31:25

shall add them to my collection. Yeah,

31:27

I think the color is great. I

31:29

think the color is great. We had a long discussion

31:32

about doing them in color because

31:34

they work out more expensive. Obviously,

31:36

everything does. because it's in color,

31:38

but they but we like them. But

31:40

as as usual, I'm the only person who

31:42

ever ends up with these things. Because

31:44

before you get round through it. The blum and things have

31:46

sold out, which actually brilliant news

31:48

for make some noise. So the more

31:50

we sell today they're happier that

31:53

the charity are going to be and it'll make

31:55

getting up at four in the morning a little bit

31:57

easier for them because they have to sit there and then sort

31:59

of push the numbers

32:01

through. So the more we sell, the happier

32:03

I will be. Mark, you wish in

32:05

Australia, said I was standing by to buy a tea towel.

32:07

When I went to the page, it won't post to Australia.

32:10

not at the moment. Not at the

32:12

moment. It might be. They're looking at

32:14

international shipping. So but it it

32:16

takes the price up, which is the

32:19

problem. It would be easier if you found somebody who you know in

32:21

this country who can buy it for you and then

32:23

pop it in a jiffy bag and send it over

32:26

to. that would probably be

32:28

be the easiest thing to do. But

32:30

apparently, they are looking at international shipping.

32:32

We did it before when we shipped out

32:34

glasses and and stuff like that. You've

32:36

been warned. You've been warned, I'm

32:38

telling you now, to break out your big

32:40

coat winter rolls in with the beast from

32:42

the east. Apparently, they

32:44

say the conditions could leave

32:46

swathes of the country stuck in up to four

32:48

inches of snow. Their fear

32:50

millions will be caught off guard after one of

32:52

the mildest autumns on record,

32:54

but they have also said mild,

32:56

you know, autumns really

32:58

means cold winter around

33:01

the corner. So somebody says

33:03

current models are moving towards a major

33:05

pattern change to something much colder

33:07

during the start of December, which is

33:09

literally just

33:09

around the corner. That Brooks

33:11

are offering six to four on a

33:13

white Christmas anywhere in the

33:16

UK, anywhere in the

33:17

UK. So six to four

33:19

ons, I think, well, I think we're gonna get snow.

33:21

I don't mind the right white Christmas. I mean,

33:23

I've got to drive a lot and I'm going

33:25

out into the countryside. on Christmas

33:27

Day, which actually it doesn't bother me. The trouble

33:30

is some of the places go down and then

33:32

up again, and my car's like two and

33:34

a half tons. So

33:36

it's quite you would think actually something that

33:38

heavy would sit on the

33:40

road. It doesn't slide

33:42

small than anything else. If at sometimes it

33:44

starts sliding, and you go, oh, we don't

33:46

wanna do this. Yeah, especially in those

33:48

little icy country roads that I've gotta go on. But,

33:50

you know, I've done it before. do

33:52

it

33:52

again. It's it's no no hardship

33:54

for me. But it's

33:56

it's one of those that had to do my

33:58

invoice over the weekend, you

33:59

know, because we we submit in

34:02

advance. I don't know why we ever did

34:04

that actually because other people in the business don't do

34:06

that. They sort of submit after they've done the work whereas I

34:08

submit before I've done the

34:10

work, which because I'm very red. Very really ill, very really

34:12

ill. And as I

34:14

did that, and then I had to fill in the speeding thing

34:16

again because I hadn't done that. So I've sent

34:18

that off. So

34:20

I'm doing quite well actually. At the moment, I'm sort of, I'm up to date

34:22

with everything. And then my friend Jordan

34:25

did a FaceTime

34:26

yesterday because I quite like

34:29

a FaceTime. I do

34:30

like a FaceTime. It's always good because you look

34:32

at people and you have if you haven't seen them for a

34:34

little while, I haven't seen my friend Jordan who's also in

34:37

the radio business, he he produces a a little

34:39

little known female presenter on

34:42

another radio station. And

34:44

he loves it. He absolutely loves it. So I

34:46

think we're gonna catch up this

34:48

Saturday Saturday afternoon. But I can't

34:50

remember if there's a blüm in train strike again

34:52

because, well, I'm a look,

34:55

there was also something the other day. I went to I I

34:57

was driving around. I had to deliver something to

34:59

my friend Alex who's gonna put my

35:02

second tree at third tree up

35:04

today, actually. There we

35:06

go. When we just have a

35:08

check. So strikes next, oh, we're alright,

35:10

actually thirteen, fourteen, December sixteen,

35:12

seventeen, December, so that's okay. so I can take the

35:14

train into town on Saturday. I don't really

35:16

want to take the car into town for the simple

35:18

reason. If you wanna find a parking meter, it's a

35:20

blemish nightmare. And it's

35:22

so

35:22

expensive. I don't know how people afford

35:24

it. It's so expensive. Really is.

35:26

I mean,

35:26

if you know it's I went to

35:29

KFC the other day. And

35:31

I am partial every few months, six pieces. And it no.

35:33

I don't have it with

35:36

chips. And

35:37

and I

35:38

said six pieces, no chips, and it's normally about seven

35:41

pounds something. Nine pound

35:43

ninety. Nine pound

35:45

ninety, I thought. not be going there

35:47

for a while, I'm afraid. They keep pushing these prices. These prices are going through the roof, you

35:50

know, it's outrageous. So I'll have to

35:52

forego that. A lot of the pieces

35:54

of chicken put

35:56

it in there. I mean, seriously, my my chicken must have been about two inches

35:58

across because this piece of chicken

35:59

was the smallest I've ever seen. I've had it

36:02

going back and going sorry, you can have a piece

36:04

of chicken not I didn't want sort

36:06

of something that sort of looked as though it wouldn't have

36:08

survived beyond two days

36:10

if it was out, you know, scavenging

36:13

around everywhere. but it it was so tiny, this piece of

36:15

chicken. I was really quite surprised

36:17

actually. But never mind, you know, we

36:19

sort

36:19

of move on. But yeah. So if

36:21

we have snow, We have it

36:23

through December, that's okay. But remember, the further

36:26

north you get, the more chance there is of

36:28

it sticking, the more chance there is of

36:30

this settling And the more chance it is of, you know, jackknifing on the

36:32

motorways and stuff like that. People it's

36:34

alright if there are cars on the motorway because

36:36

they they

36:38

tend to sort of bedded all in and it's it's a bit okay, but black of

36:40

course, is our is our killer, isn't

36:42

it? Still people going down the motorway. You

36:44

can't see it. It's hidden by the layer of

36:48

snow And so I always say to just be careful that I've got to drive a

36:50

bit over Christmas. But we're not there

36:52

yet. Goodness sake. We've got to sell

36:55

some tea towels. to raise lots

36:57

of money for global's, make some noise, but

37:00

thank you for your efforts so far.

37:02

And as the audience builds on

37:04

this program, my busiest hour, believe it or not,

37:06

is six till seven. That's my busiest hour. That's when all of a

37:08

sudden because it's obviously normal time for getting

37:10

up. You and I get up at four

37:12

AM, but we are not

37:14

the norm.

37:16

Even

37:16

though London is very busy and you get

37:18

people delivering

37:18

and people getting the trains ready and the buses ready

37:21

and all the rest of it, all the buses were on strike and

37:23

yet I got a bus the other day. but

37:25

I drove on Saturday to go

37:27

over Richmond Bridge. It was called and off by the

37:29

police with that blue ticker tape. And apparently, there

37:31

was some fight. So for

37:33

the whole day, no buses

37:35

went over Richmond Bridge. They had to do a big circuit going back the other way. It was

37:37

a lot of pain in the rear end. Yeah. It's

37:39

almost something going on. Isn't there? Look at

37:41

this fourteen to five LBC.

37:44

Nick Ferrari at breakfast. Shamima Begum,

37:46

who left London at age fifteen to

37:49

become a Jihadi bribe, and has been

37:51

begging to return home since the

37:54

defeat of isis. John Investon Green. She's not watching her in the first

37:56

name, but once she's there, she's caught up

37:58

in a

37:58

track trackash. John says

37:59

bring her back. What do you

38:02

say? Absolutely. you know. It's one

38:04

person. This is not a

38:05

racist country. Look at it.

38:07

Prime minister. The home minister. Foreign

38:09

minister. What time do you want? Nick

38:11

Ferrari at breakfast. Back this morning

38:14

from seven, listen on your radio

38:16

and on global

38:18

player, LBC. This

38:19

is LVC with

38:21

Steve Allen. Morning. Nice

38:23

heavy company. Welcome to Monday. Welcome

38:25

to November the twenty eighth.

38:28

Welcome to We got some tea towels. In fact, we've got

38:30

quite a few tea towels. I need to shift a lot. At

38:32

the moment, we've sold

38:34

two forty two. which

38:37

you are incredibly generous, incredibly generous,

38:39

two hundred and forty two. One can only hazard

38:41

a guess that how many people are gonna be

38:43

very excited to see Steve Allen sitting on

38:46

the throne. in color as well. And if you go

38:48

to the website, global's make some

38:50

noise. You can click on the shop and you

38:52

can find

38:54

me demonstrating

38:54

a tea towel. So we we had the pictures taken

38:57

the other day. And Elliott came down

38:59

with me and they

38:59

stuck a crown on my head and all the rest

39:02

of it. And

39:04

and so we demonstrated the details because there was

39:06

only one big picture on the

39:08

LBC website. And that was for like half a

39:10

detail. You need to see the whole detail

39:12

to appreciate the artwork

39:14

and everything else. Gaza says, I can

39:16

only afford one this year. Hope it helps.

39:18

All helps. Believe you, me.

39:20

Listen. I mean, you know, if we could sell them in halves, I'd

39:22

sell them in actually. And acre

39:24

Woods, because I've just purchased two

39:26

tea towels. See, I like

39:28

the idea. The more more tea towels

39:30

you purchase the

39:32

more money raise goes to global's make some noise, and the

39:34

more we can help out. And especially at

39:36

this time of year, I can't impress

39:39

on people enough that there are so many little

39:41

charities who are asking for help. And

39:44

sometimes they get help

39:46

and sometimes people say,

39:48

I can't afford it this year. But I I think

39:50

the tea towel is is very

39:52

reasonably priced. And I'm

39:54

a few could see yourself to buying a few more. You could buy one for

39:56

sort of anti Winifred, you know, and Sam and

39:58

the Twins and all the rest of it.

39:59

because you can have one you use and then ones you can

40:02

hang on the wall

40:04

as well. or failing that, you can just

40:06

sort of fold it up and put it away in a drawer as a keepsake, which

40:08

I think will be very

40:09

very nice. I

40:12

a feeling, actually, I've made a mistake on

40:14

my my invoice. I

40:16

can't remember whether I've done it. I thought the

40:18

number was sort of twenty one

40:20

and Oh, dear. Oh, you'll Yes.

40:22

I think you'll have to go to payroll. I

40:25

don't get those things. My brother

40:27

texted me backwards and

40:30

forwards. let's say, urgently needs something from twenty twenty

40:32

one. You say, I don't I don't know where they come

40:34

from, so I suggest you ask

40:38

payroll, that they'll be

40:40

more likely to do

40:42

that, I think. But I've got

40:44

no idea. No idea at all because I don't remember ever getting

40:46

anything like that. Steve, I've just

40:48

bought two, says Freddie, one for

40:50

the mother-in-law, one for the missus. That'll keep

40:52

him busy.

40:54

Listen, I don't mind who you buy them for. Buy them for Buy

40:56

them from anybody. Well, buy

40:58

them for anybody as well. There's

41:01

a a thug. who

41:04

made bogus calls. You get this a lot. You get

41:06

people who just sort of go to a phone box and they

41:08

make phone calls. This

41:10

particular one made two

41:13

thousand bogus calls,

41:15

two thousand. Paul Hennessy

41:17

threatened to kill Southeast Coast ambulance service

41:20

staff with a machine also made hundreds of

41:22

calls to the police. He's

41:24

obviously seriously ill. He's been jailed for

41:26

a year. which said

41:28

keep in quiet for a year, won't it? It

41:30

comes from St. Leonard's in East Sussex admitted

41:32

two charges of sending threatening electronic

41:34

communication to cause distress

41:36

or anxiety. It's obviously a very stupid person. Very simple. You

41:38

know, you do get people like that. They they caught

41:40

one a short while ago.

41:42

He was

41:43

It was on the news of these sort of police programs. He

41:45

was making hoax calls to call

41:47

ambulances out. And he

41:49

didn't realize in fact, they didn't realize

41:51

for after a while, until

41:53

they discovered that his phone

41:56

box that he was using

41:58

outside was in fact covered

41:59

by CCTV. Lovely.

42:02

Murray says, yes, towel

42:04

ordered, great picture. Talking

42:06

of ordering, the Amazon suggestion has just said

42:09

that based on my ordering history, should

42:11

buy the complete George and Mildred on DVD. Does that mean

42:13

I'm ordering too much stuff? You are ordering too

42:15

much stuff. Definitely. George

42:18

and Mildred. although actually it'll

42:20

probably include the film as well. They had a film

42:22

that they that they made, which

42:24

actually was on the television again the

42:26

other day. don't know

42:28

why. Two people were taken a hospital

42:30

after they reportedly came

42:32

off a Winter Wonderland ride because you

42:34

know that they have Winter Wonderland throughout the

42:36

entire country. And this particular

42:38

one was in Cardiff.

42:40

Sarah McCollum Weller said she had a

42:42

massive bang and saw one woman on the

42:44

floor and two more thrown onto

42:46

the railings. So they're they're investigating that one. You

42:48

have to sort of look at it and you have to make

42:50

sure that it's that it's it's

42:52

safe, but they all

42:54

have certificates I didn't realize.

42:56

I I thought the winter Wonderland was just purely

42:58

in London, but it's it's around the country. They're

43:00

all over the place. The one in London

43:02

is huge, Absolutely enormous Barbie.

43:04

Excuse me. Set to be the number one toy

43:06

for Christmas. This year,

43:08

sales will be helped by the upcoming Barbie

43:12

movie. with Margo Robbie and Ryan Gosling, the fashion doll

43:14

tops the list of fancied gifts. While

43:16

the retail experts expect

43:18

Lego and Nintendo Switch to

43:20

fly off, I

43:22

don't know what it is about Barbie. It just I mean, it out a

43:24

favor with with kids in the twenty

43:26

tens, but now there's

43:30

been a resurgence. And in fact, if you go to

43:32

YouTube, you can see that there is

43:34

a factory that makes barbies.

43:37

They're all sort of sitting there, they they put the arms on, they

43:39

put the legs on, and then they

43:41

have all these all these little

43:43

outfits that they make. I mean, it's

43:45

it's most bizarre to watch. It

43:47

really is. Nice picture of the

43:49

northern lights.

43:50

This is near Cellophos in

43:52

the south of Iceland. I mean, really spectacular.

43:55

really spectacular pictures

43:57

of the night sky shimmering

43:59

with the aurora Borealis

44:02

and a Victoria cross, one by

44:04

one of Britain's bravest soldiers, has been sold Lieutenant colonel Bertram

44:06

Best Dunkley from York, who

44:08

was killed by a shell

44:11

while waist deep in a flooded

44:14

trench, a deep in Belgium,

44:16

nineteen seventeen. He had

44:18

earlier survived the Somme and the first ever

44:20

mustard gas attack He led his

44:22

Lancashire fusiliers to retake positions

44:24

seized seized by the

44:26

German troops. And his medals

44:28

were sold by Spink

44:29

and Son. The other day, how much

44:31

do they go for the Victorian cross? A

44:34

lot of money. Three hundred

44:36

and

44:36

twenty seven thousand pounds, which is what I've

44:38

said to you before, about people who actually end

44:40

up with these Victoria crosses.

44:44

They sit there in a drawer. There's nothing you can do

44:46

with it. But if

44:48

they sent you another, you know, another set

44:50

that was sort of like fake but looked as good

44:52

as a real thing, then you could sell the first one because

44:54

if you've got something, were three hundred and twenty seven thousand pounds

44:56

and it's sitting in a drawer. You're gonna be

44:59

selling it. I promise you really were,

45:01

you know, but they could send you a

45:03

replica that you could keep as a

45:05

keeps saying, listen, he got this this Victoria Cross, this this

45:07

one very rare. Hence, three hundred

45:09

and twenty seven, the

45:10

prices have gone up. I can't tell

45:14

you. three hundred and twenty seven thousand. It's very nice indeed.

45:16

The Queen's Pony Emma, grazing with a

45:18

young pal and head groom, Terry Pendry,

45:22

First time, the animal has been seen since the monarch died because

45:24

as they went down the the long

45:27

walk for the funeral

45:30

procession, The horse was by the side of

45:32

the road there, and people thought that was really sweet. Very nice.

45:34

And the publicity shy man's

45:37

tell all autobiography could be

45:39

downloaded for free as an audiobook. The

45:42

bloke's memoirs spare. Yep.

45:44

That's what he is. He's being offered for

45:46

new subscribers

45:48

to Amazon's Audible. A

45:48

major book sellers have been

45:49

offering it at half price for preorders in a bid

45:52

to drum up sales. I wouldn't be buying at

45:54

any time

45:56

soon. and we're buying anything that dissed the royal family. Thank you very much indeed. What

45:58

a disgrace. What an absolute disgrace. This

46:00

was that he also had problems since

46:03

he had police security. he

46:05

wanted police security. They were going now. We didn't really

46:07

want to do police security for

46:09

you. So and now

46:11

that you know, that

46:12

unfortunately,

46:14

Prince Andrew has lost

46:16

his security, and he's fuming.

46:18

He's he's writing to the home office. He

46:21

writes anybody will listen to him, which actually at the moment in

46:23

his life is just about nobody. Perhaps if you get

46:25

sort of Sarah Ferguson to stand out there, you

46:27

know, dressed up as a police woman or

46:29

something. But I think it's unlikely.

46:32

And Steve, is it true? You

46:34

never washed your socks? No. No. Never. No. Wear

46:36

them and throw them. Wear them and

46:39

throw them. pants the

46:40

same. Wear them. Throw them. They gotta

46:43

go.

46:43

And Kim says, I've got

46:45

this fancy fancy iPhone,

46:48

Steve. I'll be able to fingers, toes in ice

46:50

cross, get online, and get your tea towel.

46:52

Oh, you can. On any phone, you

46:54

should you should be able

46:56

to actually. Steve Howie says I

46:58

bought two towels and shipping to my

47:00

daughter who now lives in London. Oh, that's useful

47:02

because then she can send the money. So that's a

47:04

smart view. find somebody who

47:06

lives in London or, you know, doesn't matter anywhere

47:08

in this country, then you can get them shipped to

47:10

them, which is good.

47:12

Save off to see Abba for the

47:14

fourth time in July. Well, which place did

47:16

you say you would do best afternoon tea?

47:19

The Goring. I

47:20

like the Goring. I've been there. It's a family run

47:22

hotel. way Kate's family went

47:24

the night before the the wedding to

47:26

William. And it's just round by Victoria. You

47:28

you could lose it seriously. go round a

47:31

bit the one way system and you wouldn't know the goring was there because you got to do

47:33

a as you go round from Victoria, then you

47:35

get a sharp right and it's there

47:37

on the left. family run hotel, very nice, very

47:39

lovely toilets. I do like a toilet. I like

47:42

a good toilet in a in a hotel. I don't like

47:44

any of these

47:46

sort of don't like anybody sitting in there holding a towel up like you're in a

47:48

night club, you know, because you know down well.

47:50

The won't you watch your hands on it. They throw it in the bin.

47:52

The won't you walk out. They take it out, shake it out and

47:54

fold it and put

47:56

it back again. So I don't like things like that. Yeah. I've not been to the

47:58

Ritz's toilet, so they're

47:59

nice.

48:00

I don't other people

48:02

or

48:02

don't go in there then. who

48:05

don't like the people in there. What what what sort of

48:07

people are they in the rich toilets?

48:11

Well, of course, you

48:11

to wash your hands. That's, you

48:14

know, they

48:14

give you a square to bar after shave or something, you

48:16

know? Or do they look at you and go,

48:19

poor boy. He has no money. He

48:21

has no money to hook. You're supposed to tip them. That's

48:23

how they make their money. Apparently, a

48:25

good toilet attendant to make

48:27

six hundred quid a

48:29

day easy, easy, peasy.

48:30

In fact, in

48:31

string fellows as used to be years ago,

48:33

it was a highly sought after

48:36

job so So I

48:38

didn't do it, but you could sell it onto

48:40

somebody else who's like a franchise. And

48:42

so you would put out

48:44

your aftershaves all your posh aftershaves, brute, old spice,

48:46

things like that, you know, the classy stuff,

48:48

not. And and then you'd have

48:50

the towels and somebody would come

48:52

in, they go to the toilets, wash their hands, and you

48:54

give them a towel, like a

48:56

certain afternoon. And and they

48:58

they would pay anything up to a fiver

49:00

for that. you put it away, but you

49:02

just leave pound coin. If anybody get try to give you

49:04

fifty pence, they won't they gone out and take fifty pence

49:06

out and put pound coins in there.

49:08

It's like if you're the doorman, On a London

49:10

hotel, every time you hold a door open

49:12

for somebody for a cab, they tip yours

49:14

at getting in, go to

49:16

Vegas, elderly pensioners

49:18

on their last legs, expanding it, they make

49:20

a fortune holding the door open

49:22

of a cab for somebody who's been to the

49:24

show. That's how it works.

49:26

I'm thinking becoming a pensioner bit money

49:28

standing on the door. Hello, dollar

49:30

view time is good.

49:32

Wonderful. Take the

49:34

new Shell

49:36

we'll find out how we're

49:38

doing after this. On your

49:39

radio, on global player,

49:41

and --

49:42

Play.

49:44

LVC. Leading Britain's conversation,

49:47

this is LVC. From

49:53

Global's News Room, I'm Lottie Mollie.

49:56

Armed forces could drive

49:58

ambulances and work in hospitals as part

49:59

of emergency plans to deal

50:02

with strike action. Ambulance

50:04

drivers and paramedics are considering

50:06

whether to join nurses on the picket lines

50:08

in industrial action plan

50:10

for December. Protests against strict COVID measures have

50:12

intensified in China. Demonstrators

50:14

gathered in Beijing and Shanghai, where

50:16

some are calling

50:17

for the president to

50:20

resign. People there are angry at his zero COVID approach involving

50:22

mass testing, quarantines, and

50:25

snap lockdowns. Direct sector of

50:27

the China Institute at the School of Oriental and

50:30

African Studies, Steve Tang says

50:32

it's more than that. We're beginning

50:34

to see first of all, in Shanghai, protesters

50:36

now saying that's done with Xi

50:38

Jinping and done with the commonwealth

50:40

party of

50:42

China. That is a fundamental change from the perspective

50:44

of the Communist Party

50:46

of China. They will not

50:49

tolerate protests challenge the authority

50:51

of Xi Jinping and the party.

50:53

Big issue vendors

50:54

will be given free SIM cards

50:56

and data vouchers to help them cope with the cost of living crisis. It means

50:59

they

50:59

can take contactless payments. Vendors

51:01

who use contactless

51:04

make thirty five percent more

51:06

on average than those who only take cash.

51:08

And the former health

51:09

secretary, Matt Hancock, is facing

51:12

questions over the future of his

51:14

political career. he made the final

51:16

of I'm a celebrity after losing the conservative whip for going into the jungle.

51:18

Footballer

51:18

Jill Scott won the show. From

51:20

Global's newsroom, you're up to dates.

51:27

This is

51:28

LVC from Global,

51:31

leading Britain's Congress

51:34

nation with Steve Allen.

51:37

Morning a very

51:40

nice city company,

51:42

it's early break

51:44

Kristone, LBC with Steve as another miserable blooming day outside.

51:48

Typical day outside,

51:50

typical Monday, rain,

51:53

overcast, cloudy, no snow.

51:55

No snow as yet, but they have

51:57

said probably beginning of

51:59

December. probably the beginning

51:59

of December. So we'll have to wait and

52:02

see. I mean, doesn't actually affect us in

52:04

London. Snow, mainly because

52:06

so many

52:08

buildings It very rarely settles only on a few occasions when it's

52:10

literally tipped it down. Do

52:12

we have to worry about things?

52:16

I can't remember actually if I like trains or if I don't like

52:18

trains, toy trains, there's a

52:20

a huge collection coming up

52:23

at the moment. It's I

52:25

think some of these items date back more than

52:27

a hundred years and a fewer worth six

52:29

hundred pounds each.

52:33

It's a guy. In the auctioneers Stuart, who said of the

52:35

collector he started buying and didn't stop, he

52:38

reckons they're worth about a hundred

52:40

thousand pounds. I

52:42

quite like the idea

52:44

of having under a thousand pounds worth of

52:46

of of railway equipment.

52:48

You know, because once once you're an addict,

52:51

for buying

52:51

things like that. I mean, it's quite

52:54

an expensive hobby. And

52:56

I think it's quite nice, actually. So I bet they go

52:59

for more. about to go for more detail update.

53:01

Just in case you've joined us, you're

53:03

late to the party. We started at four. Send

53:05

in a letter, please. an excuse

53:07

from your parents. If we start at four, I

53:09

expect people to be here at four.

53:12

Three hundred details.

53:15

Yeah. Yeah. bring it on bring it on.

53:17

And this is the latest item

53:19

from the Steve

53:22

Allen memorabilia. collection, which has now been going for quite

53:24

a number of years. But this

53:26

tea towel is

53:28

in color. and

53:30

you can see it now. You can see it before you buy. You

53:32

don't have to sort of worry about it. You know, we're not

53:34

gonna send them out blind. I want you to have

53:36

a look at it and appreciate

53:38

the artwork, the cartoon, the color, the

53:40

quality. It's all there. It's on Global

53:43

to make some noise websites. If you go

53:45

to the website and click on

53:48

the shop, you will

53:48

find it. And all the money raised

53:50

goes

53:52

to global's make some noise, which is

53:55

a charity that has supported. I think over this year,

53:57

I think we raised well over two million

53:59

pounds which supports

54:02

the brilliant small charities and local

54:04

communities across the UK, charities which deliver food banks,

54:07

mental health programs,

54:08

domestic

54:12

violence, carer support community projects and

54:14

other vital support programs, but

54:16

all done with

54:18

your help. you're the ones who are gonna make a difference this

54:20

Christmas for these charities. And when you see a

54:22

beautiful picture of me, still

54:24

looking particularly I my

54:26

age. Careful you'll notice, actually, there's a

54:28

little bit of airbrushing going on here. I

54:30

don't believe that I actually look that

54:32

good on that particular day, because I think

54:34

we did it after we've after we've finished doing

54:36

the program. I like the shirt though,

54:38

M and S, in case you're wondering.

54:40

And there you get LBC's

54:42

radio royalty. See

54:44

that sitting on a I can't work out. I

54:46

thought I was sitting on a throne. It appears I'm sitting

54:49

on the radio. I don't know why I'm sitting

54:51

radio a microphone in one hand.

54:54

And on the radio, which is very

54:56

old, isn't it? In fact, the more I at

54:58

it, how am I purging on the radio?

55:00

Unless they've designed something, I'm sort

55:02

of squatting, you know, a

55:05

red trousers excuse me. Since when has I have I ever

55:07

had red trousers? I mean, I tend to go for

55:09

sort of dark colored trousers. It's

55:11

about as good as it gets.

55:13

But if we sold three hundred so far

55:16

in an hour, we we could do with it

55:18

and do with a bit more, please.

55:20

we could do with quite a bit more because this is

55:22

the perfect gift for the early breakfast LVC fan in your life this

55:25

Christmas or as a gift yourself. I

55:28

suggest you could be mean and have it for yourself. Much

55:30

nicer, isn't

55:31

it? But there it

55:33

is and very

55:34

clever it is too. that

55:38

the artist is the same artist that we had last

55:40

time around, Robert Lee

55:41

Hensby. And he did the first one that

55:44

we did on the program. And so

55:46

we've used them again. And I think that's

55:48

really lovely. And the more money we

55:50

make, the happier

55:51

all these little charity will be.

55:53

But of course, bear in mind, they don't know how much money we're going to

55:55

make from this limited edition

55:58

tea towel.

55:59

and so they'd be grateful for anything. And that's why, you

56:02

know, whatever you buy, the

56:04

money goes to

56:04

them, they get the benefits

56:07

at the end. So If

56:09

we can cheer their Christmas up, then they're happier

56:11

we will be. So thank you very

56:13

much in advance. and

56:16

your money helps support a hundred brilliant small

56:18

charities. So just go to the website,

56:20

global's make some noise website. Go

56:23

on it. Click on the shop, and you will

56:25

find it very quickly.

56:27

Very quickly. Steve Yay.

56:29

It says Taffy Nice from

56:31

pumped to clean. He says, yeah, Tito's

56:34

well tidy. He's Welsh. They use

56:36

that expression a lot in Welsh Wales.

56:38

Well tidy

56:40

well tidy. And you talk about the details, Steve. It

56:42

says, solar. I've just woken up.

56:44

Lovely artwork. I thought you said the new

56:45

item was gonna be available

56:48

after Christmas. We brought

56:50

it forward. We brought it

56:51

forward. We decided to bring it forward. We

56:53

think now is is the right

56:56

moment. And you mentioned Christmas

56:58

gifts are treat you myself, said Matt to

57:00

a Paddington Bear in Smiths yesterday. Oh, Paddington Bear is always

57:02

always good.

57:03

You know? Bolch

57:05

a tea towel to remember my late mother-in-law

57:08

sue who loved to listen to early

57:10

everyday shows used to pop into the cafes in

57:12

Teddington, especially the

57:14

Fish Cafe. And tanker driver Phil says, that's it,

57:16

Steve Tito, ordered. I must say I was

57:18

a little bit disappointed with this morning special

57:20

announcement because nurse Heather was saying you may

57:22

be pregnant. isn't

57:24

minority. He said, but I have ordered two tea towels. Oh,

57:26

well, that's it you're forgiven. If you ordered two tea

57:28

towels, you get special dispensation, special

57:32

dispensation, Steve,

57:34

I'm in Monster. Germany having

57:36

spent the weekend drinking Gloveine in

57:38

very pretty Christmas market

57:40

back to not so pretty ill fed later

57:42

says, Joe, but always nice to get home,

57:45

always nice to get home. And and

57:47

Pat says, I know you love to

57:49

see and hear about the Egyptians. There's

57:51

a new series on Netflix, ancient apocalypse. It's about civilization

57:53

that lived on earth around the time of the ice age.

57:55

You should give it a look. Love anything about the

57:57

Egyptians. Funnies in it,

58:00

really. know, the sort of things that you end

58:02

up sort of watching on the television. I like the David Attenborough stuff as well. Lynn

58:04

and Selma says, we've just

58:06

ordered these Steve Allen Chittown, a

58:09

very worthy call nice to know that we've helped in a

58:11

in a small way. It's a big way. It's a big way. You've helped in a

58:13

big way because you've helped to raise an awful lot

58:16

of money. might just be

58:18

a a tea towel to you, plus it's

58:20

it's cash, it's hard

58:22

cash, and that goes to help

58:24

these these charities. I think we should send

58:26

them all a tea towel as well at the same

58:28

time. Talking of talking of sending

58:30

people thinks motorists paid two hundred and

58:32

fifty million pounds

58:34

last year. In speed camera finds, you wonder why the local councils love

58:36

the speed cameras. They can't get

58:38

enough of

58:38

them. They can't wait to rip

58:42

you off. you know, twenty mile an hour here, twenty mile an

58:44

hour there, twenty mile an hour here,

58:46

and then you go to some places. And if you

58:48

go on the A316

58:50

from Twickenham Parce Richmond. It starts

58:52

off at forty, and then

58:55

magically goes to thirty. Well,

58:58

the amount of people who get issued tickets for still doing forty.

59:00

I was on it yesterday, and people

59:02

were going parliament thinking, you're gonna

59:05

get a ticket. They've

59:06

got all these automatic cameras. They're up on huge posts. They're

59:09

gonna get it. Steve, do people

59:11

say that

59:11

they're going to spend

59:14

a penny says sue, when they use the looter young people even know what that

59:16

means, they probably just say I need my

59:18

card. Yes, it was a penny to go to

59:20

the toilet. if

59:22

you wanted to go to I us boys

59:24

can have the urinals, and

59:27

it was a penny. penny

59:29

was

59:29

was the was the the the the

59:32

amount of money you paid to use it. I mean, when you

59:34

think about it, it seemed ridiculous because what

59:36

people complaining the

59:38

other day, about having to use a toilet where they were charging a pound

59:40

to go to the toilet, which I thought seemed okay

59:42

because I remember Harrods years and years ago

59:44

had a posh toilet and it cost a pound to

59:46

use it.

59:48

And I

59:48

thought if you've got a nice toilet, why

59:50

not charge a pound for it? It's well

59:52

worth it. What would you rather do to stand

59:54

outside and just wet yourself? No, of not.

59:58

You pay the pound. I hate people are so stingy and

59:59

mean. We're not gonna pay. Well,

1:00:02

don't then. Don't pay it. You just have

1:00:04

to go and buy some tenor pants. Won't

1:00:06

you? For men? can

1:00:08

stand there and weed your heart's content, and

1:00:10

it won't make any difference. But, no,

1:00:12

I pay. Yeah. Comgardan just started

1:00:14

charging. Have Well, they used to charge before,

1:00:17

then they went free, and now they're charging again. Well worth

1:00:19

it. Well worth it. I don't want anybody

1:00:21

to sort of start complaining about paying money

1:00:23

to go to the

1:00:26

toilet, honestly. talk about stingy. My friend

1:00:28

Chris says, I wonder if anyone

1:00:30

has all your memorabilia. Can

1:00:33

you remember all the Curio? Yes,

1:00:35

we started off with a tea

1:00:38

towel, which was in blue and white.

1:00:40

Then we went on to a tea

1:00:42

tray. And after the

1:00:44

tea tray, we went on

1:00:46

to glasses. I'm trying to

1:00:47

remember what we've done and I

1:00:49

laid out. We did we did glasses. And then

1:00:51

we did what now for the glasses? And then

1:00:53

we're onto this one, isn't it? I

1:00:55

can't remember, actually. Yeah. The

1:00:57

the tea tray actually, the tea trays back

1:00:59

in stock. I've

1:01:01

just noticed. The Prosecco glasses

1:01:03

are back in stock as well.

1:01:05

and

1:01:05

they were very nice. That that was the groovy

1:01:08

gang, Prosecco glass. We

1:01:10

found we found a few of those ones.

1:01:12

And I like the colored tea towel. So I think

1:01:14

there's been 123I think it's

1:01:16

been about four items. There might be

1:01:18

another one, but I can't think of at the moment. Somebody

1:01:20

have to people remember these

1:01:22

things better than I do. But

1:01:23

yeah. So that that's what we that's what we

1:01:26

have. The radio cheater. I think the

1:01:28

the cheater so we have the tea towel in blue and

1:01:30

white, then we did the tray in the blue

1:01:32

and white. Then we did the the Groovy Gang Prosecco

1:01:34

glass or a box of

1:01:36

two, and then we did these

1:01:38

Steve Allen royalty

1:01:40

tea towel as well. Sorry?

1:01:43

Oh,

1:01:43

that's right. We did

1:01:44

the tote bag. Oh, there we go. So we've done

1:01:48

12345

1:01:51

So we've done five items. So the tote

1:01:53

I completely forgot about the tote bag. I was sitting

1:01:55

on the bus about six months ago, this boat gets on

1:01:57

with my toe bag and sat over the over

1:02:00

the room from me. Well, you know, on the beseech

1:02:02

the other side. And

1:02:04

I'm thinking, got my tote

1:02:06

bag. We've got my tote bag. I would just

1:02:08

they're everywhere. They're all over the place. I forget

1:02:10

how many tote bags we moved, but

1:02:12

it was an awful lot I to

1:02:14

tell you. When you say sitting on the thrones as my Chris, it

1:02:16

briefly catches up images of you on the

1:02:18

other throne. Take that out

1:02:20

of your mind straight away. I

1:02:24

don't know why. I've discovered that all toilets are different. I

1:02:26

don't know why actually. If you

1:02:27

pay a pound, you must get a really good one. In

1:02:30

Japan, they've got

1:02:32

heated seats. I think that's brilliant. Don't you?

1:02:34

And they also have ones in in Japan

1:02:36

where you don't need to use toilet

1:02:38

paper and because it has a jet

1:02:40

of water.

1:02:42

which I think is I'm sure or that that could sort

1:02:44

of worry you a little bit. So

1:02:47

that's so much money we've

1:02:48

made in an hour. Is it? Wow.

1:02:52

In

1:02:52

the first hour,

1:02:53

we've made we've made a lot of money,

1:02:56

but I'm not stopping. I'm not

1:02:58

stopping.

1:02:58

I'm not tell you how much we've made. You can probably

1:03:00

work at us. How many have we sold now? How

1:03:03

many we now sold? Three

1:03:05

hundred

1:03:05

and thirty. We need to

1:03:08

sell more. In the

1:03:10

first hour,

1:03:10

we've made a lot of money, but it's

1:03:12

it's never enough. I know that sounds really

1:03:14

really mean of me, but it's never enough.

1:03:16

All the money that we can raise

1:03:18

they can use. So let's let's shift some more

1:03:21

tea towels as they say, tell your friends, tell

1:03:23

your friends up, say, go on, order them

1:03:25

now. You can order only

1:03:27

problem we got at the moment is, at the moment, sending them abroad.

1:03:30

So I suggest that what you do is have them sent

1:03:32

to a UK address, then they can

1:03:34

send them abroad for you

1:03:36

until we've we've sorted out a little bits and

1:03:38

pieces. But if you click on the

1:03:40

shop, you will find the Globals

1:03:42

make some noise website click on the shop, and then you'll

1:03:44

see the detail, then you can see what the pictures look like,

1:03:46

and they look fantastic.

1:03:48

Yes. To be confirmed, the

1:03:50

international shipping as well, So two hundred and

1:03:52

fifty million pounds were all coughing as

1:03:54

motorist. This is stressful, isn't

1:03:56

it? I don't know. It's an awful

1:03:57

lot of money. I mean, a total of eight hundred

1:03:59

and thirteen thousand

1:03:59

drivers were find a

1:04:02

hundred pounds last year and another one point two

1:04:04

million paid a hundred pounds for the speed

1:04:06

awareness course. There's there's three hours of your life

1:04:08

you're never gonna get back. I've

1:04:09

done that one. I've done the

1:04:11

speed awareness course and then I

1:04:13

got done for speeding and I've just

1:04:15

been done for speeding again. Same

1:04:17

place. I've now got six pence. It's on the up on the Westway going

1:04:19

into to Central London because it's

1:04:21

thirty miles an hour.

1:04:24

It's really forgot to do thirty

1:04:26

miles an hour, I promise you, such

1:04:28

in my car. My car's used to doing

1:04:30

eighty, you know, well, seventy because it's legal,

1:04:32

but you know what it's like?

1:04:33

But yeah, twice.

1:04:36

In fact, the last time my license came

1:04:38

back in the following post was another

1:04:40

another thing for the speeding.

1:04:42

So just sent it off again today. Just sent it off.

1:04:45

You know, because you have to do these things. You have

1:04:47

to pay pay the price. But

1:04:49

so if everybody said, oh, you said you're getting ever so close being

1:04:52

bad. I said no won't be bad. I said, but these

1:04:54

stupid speed limits, they

1:04:56

really are just ridiculous. and

1:04:58

I wouldn't mind if there was a whole catalog of disasters up on the West Way where they

1:05:01

went, oh, all these look, a thousand people a

1:05:03

year have been hurt in accidents because

1:05:05

it's just absolute bolder

1:05:08

dash. It's absolutely rubbish. It's just an excuse for local

1:05:10

council to top up the coffers. That's

1:05:12

what it is. If they spent more

1:05:16

time actually, you know, refreshing the roads and resurfacing and

1:05:18

all the rest of it would all be a lot better. The amount

1:05:20

of the amount of times I've fallen in

1:05:22

bloody potholes, I'll tell you.

1:05:25

And it's it's big two and a half ton of car hitting

1:05:27

a pothole. You sort of go,

1:05:30

whoa. You feel it. I mean, lucky I've got

1:05:32

suspension, so it's okay. I sort of glide

1:05:34

over the top. My tire is so huge,

1:05:36

absolutely ridiculously huge. And

1:05:39

somebody

1:05:39

is talking

1:05:42

about the the people in the jungle and the fact that they all got very

1:05:44

well paid. They did get very well

1:05:46

paid. They you know, that's why I don't like to hear

1:05:48

them coming out and moaning about. There there is

1:05:50

somebody in

1:05:52

the paper Today, she was

1:05:52

apparently in I'm supposed to get me out of her back in two

1:05:54

thousand and six. I've never even heard of her. So she

1:05:57

can't have been in the celebrity

1:05:58

version. Perhaps

1:05:59

she was in the boring normal person. And she said she'd wake

1:06:02

up and be a camera in her face.

1:06:04

And I remember thinking, it's a television

1:06:06

program, dear. What should you think was gonna be a new face? A

1:06:08

rock python,

1:06:10

These people are so dumb. They are so dumb. And

1:06:12

she said, oh, and then she she

1:06:14

made up some story about having a

1:06:17

a camera in her sleeping bag, which I've I've never

1:06:19

heard of anything like that at all. And she

1:06:21

said it affected me quite deep. I thought you're

1:06:23

you're now complaining about it from

1:06:25

two thousand and six, get over yourself, whoever you are.

1:06:27

And it's it's a case of, you know, have you had

1:06:30

you seen the program before? Did you know what you're going

1:06:32

into love?

1:06:34

She said,

1:06:34

and it and it's the jungle. She had the all creepy crawl is.

1:06:36

It's a film set.

1:06:38

These people must be so

1:06:40

stupid, where did

1:06:42

Israel there must be a shop, mustn't there, run by an agency that

1:06:44

only gives you stupid people. You

1:06:46

know, can you find somebody really thick

1:06:50

who can go into this program and then moan about it after. I mean, she was kicked

1:06:52

out after a short time because obviously nobody

1:06:54

knew who she was and nobody really cared.

1:06:57

But it does it makes me not sometimes you've

1:06:59

seen people on television quiz shows, which

1:07:01

I'm particularly partial to,

1:07:04

and and and they asked them something really

1:07:06

sick. They had the Chase Was it the

1:07:08

chase the other day? But questions was, no,

1:07:10

it wasn't the chase. It must have been something else.

1:07:12

But the No,

1:07:13

I won't. I'm thinking about it

1:07:16

now. I can't remember whatever it was. This

1:07:18

program,

1:07:18

it was a celebrity version, the questions

1:07:21

were so easy You might have

1:07:23

been asked a three year old, I'll think

1:07:25

about it. Eighteen past five,

1:07:28

and I think we need to travel headlines

1:07:30

with Anne Marie Walsh This

1:07:31

is LVC with Steve Allen. Morning.

1:07:34

Nice to be

1:07:35

company five twenty is

1:07:38

late news, the Queen's favorite

1:07:40

runaround x type jag, my

1:07:42

friend, Chris has told me, has sold

1:07:44

at auction

1:07:46

for thirty

1:07:47

five thousand pounds comes with

1:07:50

provenance though. And there was another one. We

1:07:52

don't know how much the other one went for Chris

1:07:54

Dewey. The the Rolls

1:07:57

Royce Phantom. The estimate on that

1:07:59

one was fifty thousand for a Rolls Royce Phantom.

1:08:01

And I remember thinking that's

1:08:04

quite nice. is determined to get me

1:08:06

to to to change my car, but they

1:08:08

have pictures between driving this

1:08:10

other car. I do like the

1:08:12

phantom.

1:08:12

Everybody keeps

1:08:14

telling me you'll never park the Bloomington thing, but I I quite like it. And you can

1:08:16

get a good secondhand one for

1:08:18

for not as much as you think.

1:08:22

mainly because it's it it isn't so much buying the cars.

1:08:25

It's running them. You know, the

1:08:27

size of your tires, you're looking at,

1:08:29

oh, not bothered about the gas guzzling side

1:08:31

of it. because that's then if you take it out every day, if you don't take it out every day, then it's

1:08:33

not gonna cost you too much. You can you don't

1:08:35

need to worry about that. It's the fact

1:08:37

that the tires are about four hundred

1:08:39

pound each, four fifty. gonna

1:08:41

have them fitted. Servicing is gonna be Servicing is gonna be quite a lot on a rolled

1:08:44

phantom. But

1:08:49

I did I did like this other there's the

1:08:51

queen. She liked driving. She was driving a range

1:08:53

rover. You know

1:08:54

why? They get them free.

1:08:58

the royal

1:08:58

family, they all get them free. They're given

1:09:00

to everybody. The royal family, Land Rover, got some

1:09:02

sort of deal with the royal family. For some

1:09:04

reason, they were because if you remember Andrew,

1:09:06

was driving on the stand during a mistake. Could be bothered to get out

1:09:08

of the car because it's a petrolent youth. And there was

1:09:10

a gate in front of him and he

1:09:13

rammed the gate open. Oh, he's really I'm so

1:09:15

glad he's lost the police protection. I could think

1:09:18

of so many other good things you can

1:09:20

do with three million

1:09:22

pounds a year. Eight forty five o's,

1:09:24

steve at LBC dot co dot

1:09:26

u k, please buy a detail. Please

1:09:29

buy a detail. Please buy two

1:09:31

details. Yes. It's nice. But

1:09:33

thirty five thousand for the queen's favorite

1:09:35

run around an x type

1:09:37

jag. I've never driven

1:09:39

a a jag. I've

1:09:41

never driven they used to be

1:09:43

driven by bouncers. Bounces in nightclubs used to drive jaguars because they

1:09:45

had twin petrol

1:09:46

tanks. I seem to remember

1:09:49

the thing because somebody said to me, car must

1:09:51

take a fortune to fill your car up. And I said no more than a Range

1:09:53

Rover, no more than a Land Rover, no more than anything else. It's just over

1:09:56

a hundred quid

1:09:59

to fill it up, but I think the

1:10:00

the the jags had

1:10:02

twin tanks

1:10:03

on. So once one tank

1:10:05

had exhausted, so you didn't get sort

1:10:07

of caught out anywhere. Teller

1:10:09

was quite good actually. Quite good. Tonight is the British curry awards. I'm not at a well, I tell it,

1:10:11

I have had a curry. I did

1:10:14

buy one actually in in

1:10:18

where

1:10:18

did I buy it? Waitrose. Waitrose.

1:10:21

And I bought two

1:10:23

chicken curries and some

1:10:25

rice, so delicious. I shouldn't really be eating curry.

1:10:27

It's not it doesn't really sort of

1:10:29

work for for me and diabetes,

1:10:31

I'm afraid. Sorry? Yeah.

1:10:35

It depends

1:10:35

how I'm feeling. I've got certain foods

1:10:37

which I can only have every so

1:10:39

often. And and then, I mean,

1:10:41

I went berserk over the weekend eating

1:10:44

Stolen. That sort of christmasy cake thing, which

1:10:46

is quite nice, which is full of marzipan,

1:10:48

and that sends my

1:10:51

diabetes through the roof. But basically,

1:10:52

while I'm up there, it might as well clean it. So I've got

1:10:54

feather duster and I go out there and clean it. It just different different things

1:10:59

affect me differently. keep showing me this advert on the television. All food you can get

1:11:01

from sort of Tesco and ISO and

1:11:03

everything. They're all pumping

1:11:07

out Christmas food. Those ads,

1:11:08

they're all over the place, you know, people like

1:11:10

eating Christmas food. I like eating the Christmas food

1:11:15

as well. But it's but you and of it is just covered

1:11:17

in batter or something like that. Most of

1:11:19

it's really unhealthy, really unhealthy. But,

1:11:21

you know, I'll give it

1:11:24

a go. I'll

1:11:25

give it a go. I don't I don't mind so much.

1:11:27

I can sort of I can, you know, just about get through some of these. You buy it. And then you think, oh, should I eat that?

1:11:29

Should I not I mean, sausage is in blankets I'm

1:11:31

a big fan of. And

1:11:35

I did go to Greg. So don't go to Greg?

1:11:37

Yes. I think it was Greg. And I had

1:11:39

I had a biggett with

1:11:42

sausages in. because they do sausages under blankets,

1:11:44

which basically is just sausage and bacon.

1:11:46

And and that that's quite nice

1:11:48

as well. I like little things

1:11:50

like that or a bacon roll. anything

1:11:52

like that in the morning to sort of pick you up. But the

1:11:54

trouble is I couldn't get off that's why I couldn't get off at Richmond the other day to go

1:11:58

to the the Greg's bakers because there were no buses

1:12:00

because the buses were on strike. And then the

1:12:02

other day, I went to Kingston on

1:12:05

the bus to go and buy some aftershave.

1:12:08

she wanted to put

1:12:10

it in a branded

1:12:12

bag. And

1:12:13

because if you buy creed, a these

1:12:15

There's special bag and they put tissue paper in and they

1:12:18

spray it with cream and all the rest of it.

1:12:20

And I thought this is just

1:12:22

inviting somebody to come and nick

1:12:24

it because they know you've got

1:12:26

a really expensive aftershave sitting in a bag and I bought two bottles. I bought a big bottle and

1:12:31

a little bottle. Little bottle I carry with

1:12:33

me, and the big bottle I keep at home of Crite Ventures. It is

1:12:35

very nice,

1:12:37

but it's not cheap. It

1:12:39

smells lovely. It's not cheap. I mean, it's seriously not

1:12:42

cheap, like three hundred quidder bottle.

1:12:44

That's seriously expensive, but then you get

1:12:46

what you paid for. If you could describe

1:12:48

it, No, you can't

1:12:50

describe a smell. I can't do things like that. I just go And that's it. I just I just spray it.

1:12:52

I've got no idea.

1:12:55

My friend Danny Milo war

1:12:59

it first. So I remember thinking, oh, that's lovely. But it's same

1:13:01

with most things. You spray yourself with an

1:13:03

aftershave if you got a

1:13:05

particular favorite. And then after you've done it about four or

1:13:07

five ton, you can't even smell it. I

1:13:10

mean, I just, you know, you you

1:13:12

just get used to the smell. put one

1:13:14

on the other day. I was having a little because

1:13:16

I always wanna give you testers, and I was getting a please don't bother other

1:13:18

one or anything else. Listen, I use this after shaving. That's the one I

1:13:20

use. And

1:13:22

so I said, just put it in a normal bag.

1:13:24

So she got me a nice bag, ripped the price

1:13:26

tag off, and I got it for free.

1:13:28

602 I'd spent that much money,

1:13:30

but it was nice. It was nice. Steve, thank

1:13:32

you for the recommendation. To visit Jell

1:13:35

Allen says Max and Chiehm, Celebrating

1:13:39

my wife's fiftieth birthday, Saturday lunchtime, lovely

1:13:41

friendly service started with drinks in

1:13:43

the bar, followed by great food

1:13:45

and wine. All five of us

1:13:47

love the atmosphere. says after we headed

1:13:49

to SoHo for drinks followed by SoHo Hotel for Champagne and what

1:13:51

recession, everywhere we went and passed by

1:13:53

was very, I know, London over the

1:13:56

weekends is Chaka

1:13:58

block. I used

1:13:59

to meet my ex producer Corey

1:14:01

in the Strand Palace Hotel and

1:14:03

I'd wait there and then we

1:14:05

just walked through into Joe Allen's.

1:14:07

and all the people checking in, northerners. All northerners,

1:14:10

they've all got their little

1:14:12

cases, and they're checking

1:14:14

in for a weekend in

1:14:16

London. So we went for a walk around after

1:14:18

we'd had dinner. We went for a walk around. We ended up back at Joiners for more more drinks. Every bar was

1:14:20

heaving. Absolutely. I've never

1:14:23

seen so many people. And

1:14:25

as as you just said, what recession? But there is a recession. Take my

1:14:27

word for it. You know, food prices are

1:14:29

going up. I mean, everywhere

1:14:32

is terrible. Yeah.

1:14:36

So what is? Shopping basket,

1:14:38

everything

1:14:38

is more expensive. Everything is

1:14:41

more expensive. don't think there's anything that's that's

1:14:44

cheap nowadays. It really, you know,

1:14:45

it's it's really a little bit

1:14:48

embarrassing, really sad. from graves end

1:14:50

said I was driving around Central London the other day and noticed that everywhere it was twenty miles an hour. It was so hard keeping

1:14:52

to twenty. I'd read buses undertaking

1:14:54

me. Yeah. Exactly. They don't worry.

1:14:58

Buses don't worry,

1:14:59

they're not paying the ticket. It

1:15:01

goes on the

1:15:02

bus. Unless, I mean, I'd quite

1:15:04

like the idea if they were if

1:15:06

they were being done for things like

1:15:09

that. Mary says, please do another

1:15:11

Christmas decoration next year. Yes.

1:15:14

I mean, yes. It's always difficult thinking

1:15:16

of something that you're going to be willing

1:15:18

to purchase so that we can raise

1:15:21

some money for global to make some

1:15:23

noise. And so this morning, you've done you've done very well so far,

1:15:25

but it it never lets up.

1:15:27

Never lets up. If

1:15:29

if you're really

1:15:31

a big fan of of something,

1:15:33

then you have to stick with it because it's such a

1:15:35

such a good cause. Elaine

1:15:40

embarkshare, says, Steve, I drive a

1:15:42

jag. Espace is it? And I absolutely love the drive, but I had

1:15:43

to have all four tires replaced,

1:15:45

which cost me one thousand one

1:15:48

hundred pounds. Two

1:15:50

days later, a further three hundred and

1:15:52

fifty nine quid for a blowout. So

1:15:54

I've got

1:15:54

a computer on my car, which

1:15:57

tells me the tire pressure and strangely, they

1:15:59

might start off at two point four, two point

1:16:01

five, whatever it happens to me. As the

1:16:03

the further you drive, it

1:16:05

the tire, it seems to

1:16:07

inflate itself

1:16:08

even more. Angela,

1:16:10

from Tawke, Tawke, says I

1:16:12

just bought the tea towel. Steve looks amazing. My

1:16:14

husband and I are moving to America for two years, and it will remind me of you and how much you make me laugh

1:16:16

when I feel sad. You can

1:16:18

still pick us up in America.

1:16:21

There's no problem about picking us up. Oh, yes. I've got friends

1:16:23

in America who listen to me all the time,

1:16:25

so you don't need to

1:16:28

worry about about

1:16:30

not not hearing the the program. Apparently, if you can't smell your own aftershave, but can,

1:16:32

it means it's

1:16:35

so too says John. Yeah.

1:16:38

I mean, I can't tell I've got it on. Somebody

1:16:40

said to me the other day, so I could smell your aftershave. I

1:16:42

said, really? Which aren't good? Yeah. I just become immune to it.

1:16:46

just become immune chip. It doesn't matter actually

1:16:48

because, you know, I just like

1:16:50

putting it on. It's one of

1:16:52

those things, isn't it? You know

1:16:54

the roast dinner on a Sunday? One roast dinner can contain a staggering believers. Two

1:16:57

hundred and thirty

1:16:59

thousand microplastic pieces Durously.

1:17:04

Unbelievable.

1:17:04

That's a

1:17:05

roast dinner. One

1:17:06

roast dinner.

1:17:09

Goodness sake,

1:17:11

honestly. plus the farmer who makes up to two grand

1:17:13

a month, posting pictures of his cattle

1:17:16

online. It just

1:17:18

puts

1:17:18

pictures of cows online

1:17:21

and people people seem to like them and and they look

1:17:23

at that. And Susie dent from countdown, you know, the

1:17:25

girl in Addiction Recovery puts up with

1:17:27

an awful lot of I'm

1:17:31

getting a sentence in a rude word then. She

1:17:33

puts an awful lot of rib tickling, I think, from

1:17:35

the people of the program. She's

1:17:37

got a fear of clouds.

1:17:39

Now this is not unusual. Not

1:17:41

unusual. Lots of people have fears

1:17:43

of clouds. I've never quite

1:17:45

noticed it. I mean, I

1:17:46

know there's been a few horror films that

1:17:48

feature clowns, but she's got

1:17:50

extreme fear of them. Me,

1:17:53

it's just snakes. stuff like that.

1:17:55

It's called called refobia, which is the feeling fear when you

1:17:57

see clowns

1:17:57

or clown images. It's

1:17:59

a specific phobic

1:18:03

disorder that causes anxiety, a racing heart, nausea,

1:18:06

and profuse sweating, most people

1:18:08

can avoid

1:18:11

clowns. And do you remember I was telling you that? I was talking to a friend of

1:18:13

mine over breakfast yesterday. And I said, you know,

1:18:15

I'd been in to have my

1:18:17

cataract done. And and and

1:18:20

this woman said, I hear they take your eyeball

1:18:22

out and I said, no, they don't. But apparently,

1:18:24

they can do on certain things and

1:18:26

they can put it back in I'd never

1:18:28

heard of that before. You heard of that? I'd never heard

1:18:30

of it either. Absolute ridiculous. There's a moment in the paper ordered a Christmas

1:18:32

tree and she got a t rex.

1:18:34

I'll tell you more about her. after

1:18:37

the news headlines from Simon Conway. Steve Hollow on

1:18:39

LVC, text 84850

1:18:42

You know

1:18:43

it's absolutely amazing.

1:18:44

Trolls.

1:18:47

Les Dennis has tweeted that he's

1:18:49

had a lot of abuse, read his

1:18:51

post about I'm a

1:18:53

celebrity, lots of people calling him a

1:18:56

has been and an ex celebrity. This

1:18:58

is from, you know, people who aren't

1:19:00

the full tickets, I'm afraid the trolls.

1:19:02

Whereas in fact, Les Dennis is in the West End,

1:19:04

in

1:19:05

the only falls

1:19:07

and horses musical. And

1:19:10

he certainly isn't a has been an ex celebrity, but the sort of people who write, the sort of people who've got a few brain cells missing. In fact, actually,

1:19:12

to be honest with you,

1:19:14

they've got most of them missing.

1:19:18

He says, I try not to criticize here and I consider deleting

1:19:20

the tweet, but I stand by it. I

1:19:22

wouldn't worry about them Liz. I really

1:19:25

wouldn't worry about these people are sad loneliness.

1:19:27

They seriously are so you can't really begin to

1:19:29

understand until you see them exposed in the

1:19:31

newspapers and then we

1:19:33

send them to prison. because they're they're sort of

1:19:36

people who are abusive. I mean, they write

1:19:38

all sorts of stuff to all sorts of

1:19:40

people. You know, we've heard

1:19:42

stories before horrendous, though, it might of

1:19:44

parents who've lost their children through suicide, and somebody will

1:19:46

troll them and write disgusting things about them. And you think these

1:19:49

people should be

1:19:51

dragged into court. these people should be told a very

1:19:53

serious lesson, you know. But the the police are sort of still trying to sort out people

1:19:55

who sort of walking around

1:19:58

roundabouts, trying to delay traffic.

1:20:00

because they don't know what to do apart from

1:20:02

making a cup of coffee. It's a bit of a difficult thing to go. So this mama ordered the Christmas

1:20:05

tree and got

1:20:07

a t rex and makes the paper. I mean,

1:20:09

to be honest with you, I mean, I don't think that's too bad, is it? You know, you get a Christmas

1:20:11

tree. She ordered a Christmas tree.

1:20:12

Got a tea ricks. I'd rather and

1:20:15

the tea ricks makes noises. Isn't

1:20:18

that better?

1:20:19

I'd rather have a tea ricks that makes

1:20:21

noises than a Christmas tree, although I

1:20:23

do like Christmas trees. And

1:20:25

I was sort of thinking and and then

1:20:27

people go go the newspapers say, wanted a Christmas tree. We got a

1:20:29

we got a tea rate. So they

1:20:31

made a mistake. get

1:20:34

over yourself. Get over yourself for

1:20:37

goodness sake, honestly. What was the other

1:20:39

one that looked quite nice? Oh, apparently,

1:20:41

the House of Commons they

1:20:43

say, needs CCTV to stop

1:20:45

staff being touched up

1:20:47

and bullied. In the House

1:20:49

of Commons, I mean, we

1:20:50

know it's rife in the in the police

1:20:53

force, and we know it's rife, apparently, so

1:20:55

we heard over the last few

1:20:57

days. In the fire brigade, I was reading

1:20:59

all sorts of things about the fire brigade,

1:21:01

misogyny, racism, and the

1:21:03

fire brigade, I began to

1:21:05

think

1:21:05

I perhaps I'd wandered into

1:21:08

a different different place. I know it's

1:21:10

a bit of a closed shop in the fire brigade because lots of the

1:21:13

firemen have

1:21:16

two jobs They have a an outside job

1:21:18

and they have a the fireman job as well. There's a place down

1:21:20

on the used to

1:21:22

road the fire station there. In variable,

1:21:24

you can see a couple of black

1:21:27

cabs parked there. So they're black cab drivers who can also moonlight as

1:21:30

a as a fireman. but

1:21:32

it's

1:21:32

it's a bit of a I mean, one man, I

1:21:34

think a black guy working for the fire

1:21:35

brigade, somebody put a noose on

1:21:38

his locker. And I don't even

1:21:40

think

1:21:40

So

1:21:41

stupid person does that. The answer is the stupid person.

1:21:43

Sorry. Yeah.

1:21:47

They've done

1:21:48

it independent quote. I mean, it's

1:21:50

just absolutely unbelievable. And then other people say, oh, no. Nothing like that happens. It does.

1:21:52

It does happen. Why why would

1:21:54

people

1:21:54

want to sort of deny I

1:21:58

always thought it was a closed shop. There was one woman,

1:22:00

a woman firefighter. And to be honest with

1:22:02

you, you don't get many women firefighters.

1:22:05

And somebody sent her a picture of his,

1:22:07

you know, whatever. And you think this is something to matter with these people. They

1:22:08

sort of, you know, they sort

1:22:10

of missing the brain cell again.

1:22:15

it goes out. You know, Nadir Afzal, the author of

1:22:17

the review and a former chief crown prosecutor

1:22:19

for the North West says

1:22:21

he and his team

1:22:22

found dangerous levels of ingrained prejudice against

1:22:25

women, and the barriers

1:22:26

faced by people of color

1:22:28

spoke for themselves And that's the

1:22:30

sort of thing you have to deal with if you go in.

1:22:32

So part of you gotta do the job, you also

1:22:34

gotta deal with, you know, some numbskull who

1:22:37

thinks it's funny to do this kind of thing. But

1:22:39

most people that I'm my driver this morning. Very interesting, he has

1:22:41

a Mercedes, but he said he

1:22:44

didn't rely on the

1:22:46

cab company for all his work. So he works for He works private

1:22:48

high. He does all sorts of things

1:22:50

so that he can, you know, drive

1:22:52

around and actually make a living.

1:22:54

He said, if you sit there waiting,

1:22:57

Then

1:22:57

he said the chances are you won't

1:22:59

too you family board game causes

1:23:02

more rounds than anything else?

1:23:07

family board game, which I mean, I've never rowed over a board

1:23:09

game in my life. Can't imagine why you

1:23:11

didn't want to row over

1:23:13

something as simple as that. Apparently, it's Snakes and

1:23:16

ladders. Snakes and ladders apparently

1:23:18

causes more family rouse than

1:23:20

any other

1:23:22

board game. Isn't that isn't that amazing? Absolutely amazing. I

1:23:25

can't even I mean, what would

1:23:27

be complicated if what

1:23:29

route would you have you throw the

1:23:31

dice and then, you know, the the dice

1:23:33

falls on something then you either go, is

1:23:36

it upper ladder and

1:23:38

down a snake? It's the most simple ball game you could possibly

1:23:40

have, and people have family rounds over

1:23:42

it. Oh, my god. I can't believe

1:23:44

it. Pulling back to Heath to

1:23:46

just purchase the tea towel. Thank you.

1:23:49

And a sparkly bag for

1:23:51

next year

1:23:54

says says Mary.

1:23:56

Oh, there you go. That's good. And Paul

1:23:58

in Plymouth has bought two tea towels, which is good. Mark acknowledged this. Have I dressed

1:24:01

my pet snake up as a

1:24:03

clown who'll be most scared

1:24:05

your Susie dent. I don't think you'd I don't think you'd ever get friendly with

1:24:07

a snake to you. I don't

1:24:09

think so. I mean, I

1:24:12

think

1:24:12

people isn't

1:24:14

lovely? And it's like, you never get friendly with a

1:24:16

bumblebee or wasps. Oh, look, I've got

1:24:18

a tame wasp. I don't think so.

1:24:20

You

1:24:20

know, I've got a Tame snake. No. No. No. No.

1:24:22

No. No. No. You never get a Tame snake. You get snakes that sort of

1:24:25

my friend used to walk

1:24:27

around the hippodrome. with a

1:24:29

snake around his shoulders. Huge thing. Absolutely huge thing, but he was very good.

1:24:31

Steve says

1:24:32

cat in slow. I've

1:24:34

got a fear of politicians

1:24:37

So you could say I've got a

1:24:39

fear of snakes like you have. Thank you. Thank you.

1:24:41

I'm hoping that we've seen the last of Matt Hancock, but

1:24:43

I fear not. I

1:24:46

fear not. But my husband is Dream Cara

1:24:49

Lotus, I bought a four ten

1:24:51

sport, thirty mpg with

1:24:53

a critical health payout. I'm okay now though, tires two

1:24:55

hundred and fifty pound each. Oh, I can

1:24:57

get four tires for that. I'm my

1:25:00

Toyota. Sixty

1:25:02

miles an hour. Oh, there you go. Yeah. I mean, I've always thought actually

1:25:04

that having tires on a car is the

1:25:06

most expensive thing you can have. It goes

1:25:08

in there and they go. That's three

1:25:10

hundred and seventy five pounds. Oh, you

1:25:13

want it balancing? Well, I thought

1:25:15

maybe, yes, that would be a good Only a new market says, Tyrophobia. is

1:25:20

a fear of closely packed holds or

1:25:22

more specifically in aversion to the side of irregular patterns or clusters of small

1:25:26

holes or bumps. No crumpets. I bought some

1:25:27

old crumpets the other day. I bought the the new

1:25:30

ones from M and S, which are shaped like

1:25:32

snowmen. Snowmen crumpets. They're quite

1:25:34

nice. They fit in the toaster

1:25:36

just right, which is good.

1:25:38

So when you drive, says David, the the air in the tires

1:25:40

warms up due to compression

1:25:42

and friction on the road, as

1:25:46

pressure is proportional to temperature, Charles' law

1:25:48

to be physics poor. There has been slight

1:25:50

increase in the tire pressure. Yeah. It goes

1:25:52

up from about two point five to about

1:25:55

two point six or seven, I think. I'm always interested

1:25:57

by that, but I I do

1:25:59

carry a

1:25:59

a pump

1:26:02

in the car. just for those old days because there was a

1:26:04

lady early on and she seemed to get flat

1:26:06

tires all over the place. You know why? Builders.

1:26:09

It's builders. They're sort of dropping these nails

1:26:11

and screws and everything else like that.

1:26:14

It's the right pain in the rear

1:26:16

end. So t

1:26:59

I've noticed it actually. I hadn't had

1:27:02

two million pounds this year. We're just sort of adding to it as

1:28:33

well. Lorraine says with

1:28:35

your love of Chris Can

1:28:37

we have a groovy gang bobble for our tree

1:28:39

next year? Or better still a Steve Allen figure for the top of the tree? I'm

1:28:42

sure about that one.

1:28:45

don't

1:28:45

want to be on the top of a tree, thank

1:28:47

you. I don't being a ball ball. mind being a ball The problem is sending

1:28:48

them out,

1:28:52

isn't it? It's sending them out. And oh, man. And

1:28:54

we I see no reason why we shouldn't look into it. I see no reason.

1:28:56

Big shout out to my amazing

1:28:58

husband, Ringo, of the eleven. We bought

1:29:02

two details, his funky deaver.

1:29:04

Ketchup apparently was once sold as

1:29:06

medicine. The condiment was prescribed

1:29:08

and sold to people suffering

1:29:10

with indigestion. Back in eighteen

1:29:13

thirty four, well, they used to sell

1:29:15

Coca Cola used to have cocaine and

1:29:17

it didn't it, That's what

1:29:18

it used to have. And Dorado

1:29:20

Ketchup, it was sold as

1:29:23

a medicine claiming to

1:29:25

cure things like diarrhea, indigestion,

1:29:27

and jaundice. although to be with you, I gave most of those. It was

1:29:30

they used to sell tomato pills.

1:29:32

Tomato

1:29:33

pill doctor John Cook

1:29:35

Bennett medicine, that finally, now we dip our

1:29:37

chips in it. And we don't think about

1:29:40

it, Dewey.

1:29:42

We just think that's That's I can't imagine buying something like that. That's better. But

1:29:44

it was definitely cocaine in Coca Cola,

1:29:46

I think. I'm pretty certain. No.

1:29:49

I think that's

1:29:50

what it was called.

1:29:52

coca

1:29:52

because from the from the coker plant. That's what

1:29:55

I thought it was it was it

1:29:57

was

1:29:58

sold as a medicine.

1:30:00

sold as a medicine Yes.

1:30:02

It

1:30:02

was sold as a medicine. It wasn't sold as a

1:30:04

fizzy drink. It was sold as a medicine.

1:30:06

That's what they did with Coca

1:30:08

Cola. Have

1:30:10

you checked? Have you checked?

1:30:11

Have you checked? Have you checked? Because it it was

1:30:13

definitely sold as a medicine. People used

1:30:16

to tour around Sunny, but I've never heard of

1:30:18

the ketchup one. I love the idea soldier people suffering with

1:30:20

indigestion says, Oli. How strap

1:30:22

never thought about that before?

1:30:24

I just thought it tastes

1:30:26

quite nice. I do like ketchup.

1:30:28

I'm I'm

1:30:29

big, big fan of ketchup. And then they did a survey in the paper. We've

1:30:31

got to take a break. I'll come back to the survey of

1:30:33

the meal that

1:30:35

you would have before you died.

1:30:38

Let's get the

1:30:38

LBC headlines for travel with Annery Walsh. This

1:30:43

is LBC with

1:30:44

Steve Allen. Good morning. Nice to have you come. I'm still

1:30:46

trying

1:30:46

to get over ketchup, soldiers, and medicine. That's funny. When we just

1:30:49

dip chips in it and put it up,

1:30:51

people use ketchup on everything. I've

1:30:55

seen people putting ketchup on steak and stuff

1:30:57

like that, but they did a survey

1:30:59

in the papers, which said

1:31:01

that steak and chips tops the poll for

1:31:03

the final meal. You know, if you had

1:31:06

a choice, you know, of a meal

1:31:08

before you die, although to be

1:31:10

honest with you, I don't think you've got the strength to eat a

1:31:12

meal, steak and chips or otherwise. If

1:31:14

you're dying, the one thing you're not

1:31:17

gonna have, it's different if you go to

1:31:19

America. and and you

1:31:19

have been given the death penalty

1:31:22

for a misdemeanors of a

1:31:23

serious nature, then you

1:31:26

have your final meal. So that's

1:31:28

completely different. But if you are dying, the one thing

1:31:30

you're not gonna be going is going, I'll have steak

1:31:33

and chips before

1:31:33

I go. It just it

1:31:36

doesn't work you just

1:31:38

haven't got the strength. Most people before they die

1:31:40

sort of go, you know, unconscious. They're they're not gonna be

1:31:42

eating anything. But if you're in prison in America,

1:31:45

And I think around the world, they would

1:31:48

offer people their last

1:31:49

meal. So people would all strange enough

1:31:51

people do all the milkshakes fries,

1:31:53

KFC, McDonald's, all sorts of things that as if it

1:31:55

made any difference. the

1:32:00

Sorry? what

1:32:01

would I have? Well, I

1:32:02

wouldn't wanna be in that situation anywhere if you're gonna be executed and they go, what food do you like? Who cares? Who

1:32:04

cares? They're gonna make any difference. Is

1:32:06

it you're gonna walk up the scaffold?

1:32:10

I'm gonna stand on the thing and you can then get on with it,

1:32:13

just get on with it. I've

1:32:15

seen them

1:32:15

executing war criminals on

1:32:18

YouTube and literally, I mean, I'm surprised that

1:32:20

people don't fight and kick and shove

1:32:22

into all rest of it. But

1:32:24

you can't go anywhere. Albert Peer

1:32:27

Point, Britain's last hangman wrote a very

1:32:29

interesting book on it. He could get somebody

1:32:31

on the scaffold and down

1:32:33

in six seconds. six

1:32:34

seconds he could get them down because the condemned man

1:32:36

was in a cell. What he didn't know

1:32:38

is when he went out for

1:32:41

exercise, he

1:32:42

would then come Peer

1:32:44

Point would look through the cell

1:32:46

door, gauge his weight.

1:32:47

Next door to

1:32:49

this man's cell

1:32:52

was the execution chamber, but he didn't know that

1:32:54

it was a wall. It was a solid wall that they then slid back. They literally

1:32:56

went in there,

1:32:59

hands behind the back. Up

1:33:01

on the scaffold, strap around his feet, hood on

1:33:03

the head, noose, gone. Six seconds he

1:33:05

could do it

1:33:07

in, very fast, very, very far. But

1:33:09

the bloke never knew. I think PeerPoint used to offer them a brandy. Like, that made a difference.

1:33:11

Like that. Why did you have a

1:33:14

brandy? Well, I've do we gotta

1:33:16

wish skin tonic or something,

1:33:18

I don't know, I wouldn't mind something like

1:33:20

that or a milkshake. But no, they they they

1:33:22

would do a last meal and

1:33:24

then and it didn't make any

1:33:26

difference, Sacha. I became quite an expert on Albert Peer Point because he wrote this book because he then decided the

1:33:28

end of his life

1:33:31

that he hadn't enjoyed hanging

1:33:33

people. He didn't think it was a deterrent, which of course, it isn't. That's

1:33:35

why people don't bring back the death penalty. What they say is,

1:33:36

but listen, if it was a

1:33:39

deterrent, that would be brilliant. But

1:33:42

even in the countries that have still got public executions,

1:33:44

it's not a threat to them because

1:33:46

they still carry on committing atrocities. people

1:33:49

do things and they have public executions in certain countries around the

1:33:51

world. Not so good. Is it? things like that at

1:33:54

all. Steve, I did not

1:33:56

think says

1:33:59

Lisa that I'd be waking up this morning and ordering a Steve

1:34:01

Allen tea towel I've been wanting from

1:34:03

for a long time. to

1:34:06

go with my tea tray. Well, if you've ordered it,

1:34:08

it will be winging in

1:34:10

its way up to East Yorkshire and

1:34:12

I

1:34:12

hope you love it. It looks even better

1:34:14

in the flesh. as they say, as if something could look better in the

1:34:16

flesh, but it it does. It's

1:34:18

the Steve Allen Radio Royalty TTEL.

1:34:22

you know, it's it's not when they call somebody the living legend

1:34:24

as opposed to the dead legend

1:34:26

or something like that. I don't know

1:34:28

why people call people legends. I suppose it

1:34:30

just the fact you survived so long, isn't it? It's a

1:34:33

case

1:34:33

when you look back and you think how many because

1:34:35

I know people have been in the business. They've

1:34:37

they've done a year and then they opt

1:34:39

out. They don't They don't have the interest anymore. They

1:34:41

sort of they just sort

1:34:42

of lose and fall out of love with it. How you can

1:34:45

do that? I've

1:34:47

got no idea. Catherine says I've just put on

1:34:49

to the global Masonite's website and bought the g tau, the crown really suits you. Well,

1:34:51

I thought so

1:34:54

as well. Although, can you believe it

1:34:55

that after we'd had the pictures take, they

1:34:58

took it away from me and even let

1:35:00

me keep

1:35:00

the crown. The

1:35:03

tea towels went. And

1:35:04

the crown went, so I'm going, oh, felt

1:35:06

a bit depressed actually, but we'd love you to buy one. Love you to buy

1:35:09

one, please. on the global,

1:35:11

make some noise website. Go to the website, click on the shop, and

1:35:13

you will find it. You can have a look before

1:35:16

you buy, very

1:35:18

rare that people let you do that. And if you want to help us raise

1:35:20

money for more than a hundred brilliant

1:35:22

small charities in local communities across

1:35:25

the UK, then you could do no

1:35:27

worse than buy because all the money raised goes to global make some

1:35:29

noise. So just go to the website.

1:35:31

Click on the

1:35:34

shop. You

1:35:34

will find it and we can help all sorts of people

1:35:36

in food banks, mental health

1:35:38

programs, care support, care support

1:35:41

so important for me. I remember talking to a lady some years ago and

1:35:44

she'd become a carer

1:35:46

for her father. And

1:35:48

it

1:35:48

it took its toll

1:35:50

on her. took its toll on it. It's very difficult. You get young children

1:35:52

who become carers for their own parents.

1:35:54

We've got loads of vital support

1:35:58

programs, community projects, and there's the increase of violence.

1:35:59

other is because I sit on the television all

1:36:02

the time every time you get a a police

1:36:04

program, you will always get there'll be

1:36:06

domestic violence somewhere in there where the

1:36:08

police been called

1:36:10

out. I said the other day, there was one

1:36:12

woman she'd called them out. I think probably about forty times,

1:36:14

they were well aware of who she was. and

1:36:18

it was just wasting the police time. They've got better things to do, like, you know, with all these people complaining about

1:36:20

oil and water and power and all the rest

1:36:22

of it. They've got better things to do them

1:36:27

faff around trying to get people down from from bridges.

1:36:29

Tanker driver Phil says, Steve,

1:36:32

have you seen the remake

1:36:34

of the railway children? I have

1:36:36

I have. I

1:36:37

bought it. Love the railway children. The

1:36:39

buildings, the

1:36:39

locos, and locations were so

1:36:41

familiar to me as I spent

1:36:44

so much time on

1:36:46

that railway before the pandemic. So this coming Sunday says, Phil, come rain or I'll

1:36:48

be chuffed up and

1:36:49

down that line with my glass

1:36:52

of Prosecco lost

1:36:55

in my own little world how lovely. How lovely?

1:36:57

I love these old

1:36:59

fashioned railways. I love seeing the it

1:37:01

was a program on the television the other

1:37:04

day where

1:37:04

you can join this railway. You you pay and they do dinner

1:37:06

on board and really good quality food and really lovely. And I thought that's

1:37:08

a nice thing. And it seemed to be people of a

1:37:11

certain age. They seemed to be over

1:37:15

forty shall we say? Whether or not it was too

1:37:17

expensive for young people, I don't know, but I remember

1:37:19

thinking how lovely to go

1:37:21

on an old steam railway and go somewhere

1:37:24

and then you can, oh, I just thought

1:37:26

it was fantastic. I love stuff like that.

1:37:28

Ian says two tea towels

1:37:30

ordered Steve's small price to pay for your humor.

1:37:32

Well, put it this way. It's it's

1:37:33

going to such a good cause. Such

1:37:36

a good cause. Steve, even

1:37:37

your wonderful team, Ketchup, was

1:37:39

originally called ketchup. says

1:37:42

Michelle. What's it really? Good Lord? My another one here, Funky Deepa amazing

1:37:44

husband, ringo, missed your messages. He's driving

1:37:46

to work. Please shout out to him.

1:37:51

and we'll buy another tea towel. Oh, I can't be bribed. Oh, I can't be

1:37:53

bribed. Somebody said to the

1:37:54

other day, can you wish my

1:37:57

daughter a seven happy

1:37:59

birthday to absolutely not? certainly not.

1:38:00

You have to make a substantial

1:38:02

donation. The mini mini the mini drama with Timothy Small

1:38:04

playing Albert PeerPoint was superb says

1:38:06

to I did see it.

1:38:10

And do you know why? He stopped being a hangman?

1:38:12

Do you know

1:38:13

why Albert Peer pointed to it,

1:38:15

hanged? Goodness knows how many people.

1:38:17

It's because when you're the hangman, you're

1:38:19

engaged by the home office, he would turn up at the prison. He

1:38:21

had his

1:38:24

own noose. He had

1:38:26

his own hoodie, had had carried

1:38:28

his own equipment with him. And because he

1:38:30

arrived late, they only offered him a salad

1:38:32

tweet. and

1:38:34

he wanted eggs. And

1:38:36

they

1:38:36

said, well, the cooks gone

1:38:38

home. And he

1:38:39

said, I want a cooked

1:38:41

meal. That was the deal he got cooked me, he

1:38:44

didn't get it, and he quit. It was as

1:38:46

simple as that. It was as simple as that.

1:38:48

That he'd gone all that way. He used to

1:38:50

have a a pub as well. use of a pub and so people never talked

1:38:52

about his work. Never talked about his work at

1:38:54

all. But he had to yes. He

1:38:57

was completely separate, but

1:38:59

he had to hang one of his regulars.

1:39:01

That was the basis of the film because one of his regulars had committed a murder, I think.

1:39:04

And so

1:39:07

he had to had

1:39:08

to sort of execute him and he

1:39:10

said, come on, walk this way. You know, he'll be over very quickly. He won't know

1:39:14

anything about it. Yeah. Right. Whatever. But I thought

1:39:16

it was very good. Very good. If you could have a

1:39:18

last drink, what would it be says David? just

1:39:23

have to be Prosecco. I'm particularly

1:39:24

fussy about drinks actually. I'm not very

1:39:26

good with drinks. You know, I just sort

1:39:30

of I just sort of go Prosecco where Prosecco

1:39:32

from. They had it I've I've

1:39:34

been I've been buying these bottles of

1:39:36

Prosecco. I've come up about

1:39:37

size there, but they're quite big. Twenty

1:39:39

one ninety nine for

1:39:42

this big bottle of Prosecco in Waitrose, but

1:39:44

I can get two bottles. For twenty quids, two bottles of the

1:39:46

slightly smaller

1:39:46

size, which is equivalent to the big bottle. So

1:39:51

I'm saving one ninety that's what I bought. The other day, the

1:39:54

fact I bought four bottles actually. And, you

1:39:56

know, well, you've got to buy this stuff when it's when it's

1:39:58

on the right price. I was having a lay in today,

1:40:00

but didn't happen.

1:40:02

Finally, says Viv got up at four thirty tall to the tea towel. You are worth it. Hope you raise lots.

1:40:04

Me too. Me

1:40:07

too. We would have

1:40:10

1:42:20

And we can guarantee as I

1:42:22

say that that Christmas delivery for you.

1:42:24

In fact, well in advance of

1:42:26

Christmas. Steve, I've just bought two

1:42:29

tea towels for myself and another

1:42:31

Steve Allen fan. Thank

1:42:33

you, Braun. And Judith, says another tea

1:42:35

towel for East Yorkshire. Well, it's what we like. The more

1:42:37

the merrier. Thank you very much indeed. The more

1:42:39

the more tea towels

1:42:42

we sell. The more money raised, goes to global's,

1:42:44

makes some noise, and helps these

1:42:46

little tiny charities that need so

1:42:49

much help and with your help, then we

1:42:51

can make things better for them. My last meal says Stella would

1:42:53

be a massive birthday cake, covered in fresh cream followed by lots of

1:42:56

Cadbury's chocolate. You

1:42:59

see, that wouldn't do for me at all. No. That's why you're the

1:43:01

size you are. You

1:43:02

can't eat chocolate all the time. Goodness.

1:43:06

So, honestly, ridiculous. I've never seen anything like it. Chocolate cake. They

1:43:08

were doing a baking program on the television,

1:43:10

and it was in America. And

1:43:13

this bloke is making this cake, which was

1:43:15

Sponge, cream, sponge, cream,

1:43:17

sponge, and I'm looking at

1:43:19

it thinking, are

1:43:23

you mad? You mad. Who eats this? I can't eat full

1:43:25

of diabetes. But, you know, but a

1:43:27

fresh cream birthday cake. I mean,

1:43:30

I think, you know, a small

1:43:32

cake. a very, very

1:43:34

smart puppy, a mini,itty,itty,itty cake. I don't want anything like that at all.

1:43:40

Another one here

1:43:40

says, Steve, listening to you from Mauritius. I do every

1:43:43

morning after my daily swim, what you go to

1:43:45

Mauritius, and you have a daily swim,

1:43:47

it sounds nice, actually. So

1:43:49

thank you, Vasha. And Karen says I bought the tea towel, looks too good to you. Oh,

1:43:51

don't don't use it. Please don't use it.

1:43:54

because then in years to

1:43:56

come, Somebody will

1:43:58

say, oh, I've still got an original Steve Allen T talent. So I said, oh, I used ours, and it would

1:43:59

awful lot better. But

1:44:02

going back to

1:44:03

these baking programs, They

1:44:06

did one the other day. It must have been ordinary members of

1:44:09

the public, whereas the one in

1:44:11

America had professional cake makers

1:44:12

and it was supposed to do

1:44:14

it as if it was Christmas card. And

1:44:17

I've seen some staggering cakes, but this all is sponge

1:44:19

and cream. Sponge and cream. Sponge

1:44:22

and this This bloke was mixing chocolate, then

1:44:24

he added brandy into the chocolate,

1:44:26

then he added more chocolate.

1:44:29

You get these chocolate chips. which

1:44:31

you

1:44:31

put into a a bowl over hot water and you

1:44:33

keep melting it. And I I look

1:44:36

disgusting. Really look disgusting. I mean,

1:44:38

I couldn't believe that anybody did,

1:44:40

Richard. and then he cut

1:44:42

the sides off, so he could see what it

1:44:44

looked like in all the different layers. And I mean, it it was quite clever.

1:44:46

The the actual drawing of the cart, I've seen much better cakes

1:44:51

I've seen really nice cakes in, patisserie Valerie, and

1:44:53

there's quite a few other shops

1:44:55

out there that seem to have these beautiful

1:44:57

cakes in the window. What they cost? I've

1:44:59

got no idea. You can

1:45:01

go to Costco and you can get a really

1:45:03

big birthday cake for under twenty five quid and do it with your name written on it

1:45:06

and all

1:45:06

that you can watch them making them.

1:45:10

really interesting, but no, a

1:45:12

short way. I mean, and I think the only

1:45:14

way if you eat a chocolate cake, any

1:45:16

slices of it is join a

1:45:18

gym. That's the

1:45:19

only thing to do because you have to, you

1:45:21

know, you it's it's like it's like swab

1:45:23

season, isn't it? It's give and take.

1:45:25

We used to go to the

1:45:27

gym in the Balbocan. And if we'd had a

1:45:29

heavy night the night before, if you'd had a kebab or you'd had chips or

1:45:31

something like that, you paid for it the

1:45:33

next day. God knows you

1:45:35

paid for it. I can remember

1:45:37

the the trainer going, okay, we'd have three circuits and you'd go,

1:45:40

oh, god. Do we have it? We used to pray that

1:45:42

he wasn't there, so we didn't actually have to do

1:45:44

it. because

1:45:47

then you get you sitting on the rowing machine and that was my least

1:45:49

favorite thing to do in a gymnasium. So

1:45:51

basically to save any embarrassment,

1:45:54

I'll stop going. I thought it was much easier not to go to

1:45:56

a gym because people who go to

1:45:58

gyms, it's in their their psyche.

1:46:00

They go there. because

1:46:02

they they get something out of it

1:46:04

whereas I got nothing out of it whatsoever. Absolutely nothing. I'm

1:46:06

a bit confused about strictly. So Ellie Taylor is out

1:46:11

who we didn't know who she was. I checked with the producer. He'd never heard of

1:46:13

it. He'd never heard of it. And he knows he knows

1:46:15

how come and this is

1:46:18

the celebrity version. You recognize her from what?

1:46:20

Who don't know? That's not very

1:46:22

useful. Is it really? But also,

1:46:24

then she was She was

1:46:27

at her partner is

1:46:29

Johannes

1:46:30

Radebe. Who's he? You know

1:46:32

him?

1:46:34

You see

1:46:34

the gay one? Alright. because I

1:46:36

don't know because when I looked at him, I

1:46:39

thought I'm sure I might have seen you

1:46:41

dancing with when they started doing their same

1:46:43

sex couples. I wasn't sure if he was if he'd danced

1:46:45

there. But it was her that confused me because I've never

1:46:47

seen her on anything. It's

1:46:50

it's amazing. Ted Lasso,

1:46:52

actress Ellie. What's Ted Lasso?

1:46:55

Is that

1:46:55

TV program or something?

1:46:57

That's just why I don't know who

1:47:00

these people are. Perhaps I'm not watching enough television,

1:47:02

but she was called flat footed, but surely

1:47:04

balanced. Is

1:47:06

it

1:47:06

TV series? Ted Lasso. Ted Lasso, toddler

1:47:09

so TV series

1:47:12

twenty twenty. An

1:47:14

American football coach is

1:47:16

hired to manager British soccer team.

1:47:18

What he lacks in knowledge

1:47:21

and its got Sorry, ma'am. Her name's

1:47:23

oh, the writers are on there. Who

1:47:26

where's where's the cast name? Is

1:47:29

is Ellie Jason Sadikis I think I've heard

1:47:31

of him. Yeah. Have a look at twenty

1:47:34

twenty and see what what Park Ellie

1:47:36

plays in it. If indeed she's even in

1:47:38

it, I'm I'm slightly confused by this actually.

1:47:41

She must be

1:47:42

on the Karl's list. They said she's never expected to be in it for a long time and experience

1:47:48

so fully. But as as

1:47:50

I don't know who she is and I don't know what Ted Lasso is. So wait a minute. So what's I forgot name again

1:47:52

now. It doesn't

1:47:55

really help. Does it? She's

1:47:57

not on the top cars list. She's not looking

1:47:59

very promising, is

1:47:59

it? Oh, Ted

1:48:03

Lasso, actress Ellie, who's

1:48:07

thirty eight. So it doesn't

1:48:09

So they've taken it and

1:48:12

they've called her a

1:48:14

celebrity and she's not even in a major part in something

1:48:16

that nobody's ever even heard of. I'm

1:48:18

not surprised

1:48:18

she was kicked out. I'm

1:48:22

not surprised. She said

1:48:22

it'd been a privilege, but it was. Your

1:48:25

agents done very well

1:48:27

dear. Craig Revel Horwood, said

1:48:32

that her Elliott Partners Jive

1:48:34

was slated as Messi and lackluster.

1:48:37

But she's a comedian. Why would we I thought

1:48:39

they were supposed to be rehearsing these things. But she's in something that we've never even heard doesn't really

1:48:43

help, does it? Next week Kim Marsh, who

1:48:46

missed a week with COVID. That was lucky, wasn't it? Oh, why she could have been

1:48:48

out? But she'll be in

1:48:50

the quarter finals with Will Mello

1:48:54

Hamsay

1:48:54

Yasin, Molly Rainford, Floweaster,

1:48:56

Helen Skeleton. It is just

1:48:58

a reality show,

1:48:59

isn't it? It's nothing

1:49:01

nothing more, nothing less. actually. Steve, I still

1:49:03

have my LBC dayglow road safety

1:49:06

jacket from the seventies as

1:49:08

Philip. It was a life saver

1:49:10

when I had a moped. Good lord

1:49:12

above. I didn't even know things

1:49:14

existed like that. I mean, I've got all the old advertising posters for LBC over

1:49:16

the years, and I've got a milk bottle

1:49:18

and all sorts of things like that.

1:49:22

Steve, looking forward to this Sunday fireplace on in

1:49:24

a mug of hot chocolate. We shall

1:49:26

be watching the first episode of The

1:49:29

Box of Delights. we used to go and

1:49:31

see that every year at Wilton's musical. Me and

1:49:33

my friend, Ian and Rich as well, we would go there

1:49:35

to see box of delights. rats

1:49:38

all over the place and Wilton's beautiful and mice and things like that. But it it added to the to

1:49:40

the fun of the place.

1:49:42

It's great. Absolutely love it there.

1:49:46

but box of delights back on the back on

1:49:48

the tele again, which is very good. I think people

1:49:50

should go and see a pantomime this year.

1:49:53

I

1:49:53

think people should really go. Actually talking

1:49:55

of hot chocolate, I did see a velvetizer on the television the other selling it on QVC, and

1:49:58

I think it's made by

1:49:59

hotel chocolar because

1:50:03

I've got one of their advent calendars. It's

1:50:05

it's seriously huge. It's

1:50:08

like a a

1:50:10

huge book. And and that's quite

1:50:12

nice. And I won't pass their shopping Kingston the other

1:50:14

day, and they've got all sorts of advent

1:50:18

calendars. which I thought, you know, if you if you eat chocolate,

1:50:20

then you're probably gonna go for this one, but they

1:50:22

do a velvetizer, which they were selling in Costco,

1:50:25

and you apparently pour the powder in and then

1:50:27

this machine stirs it and then you end

1:50:29

up and I thought I could make myself

1:50:31

in on hot chocolate. I did have one

1:50:33

the other day, not the other day about

1:50:35

that three or four weeks ago from either cost

1:50:37

of coffee or Starbucks.

1:50:40

And it was quite nice, but

1:50:42

they put this squirty cream on the

1:50:44

top. but

1:50:45

it evaporates because it's all air. It's not even proper cream. It's sort

1:50:47

of it's what I'd call it. They take it out of the

1:50:51

See, taking

1:50:52

pictures of.

1:50:53

the taking pictures of

1:50:55

Taking pictures of my tea

1:50:57

towel on

1:50:57

the screen. You're sad

1:51:00

person. Honestly, you're going

1:51:02

to hell on the handcarts.

1:51:04

selling it. Selling words, my tea

1:51:06

towel. You put it on your Twitter feed

1:51:12

or something. Yes. Snapchat. What the

1:51:14

dickens is that? I've got no idea what Huddl to be on something like Snapchat.

1:51:16

I'm a class

1:51:19

act mate. Snapchat. That's

1:51:22

like is that another conversation? It's

1:51:24

like people being on Instagram and they set

1:51:26

you on Instagram. Again, no. Do I look

1:51:28

like I'm on Instagram? What was the other

1:51:30

one? TikTok. Hello? I've only ever heard

1:51:33

about Grindr

1:51:33

and Tinder. I haven't heard about the

1:51:35

other things. All these other programs

1:51:37

going on out there. It's all

1:51:40

but very shocking for me at my

1:51:42

age, really. I don't watch that. And I'm going what did you say? I'm going on Snapchat. What did you

1:51:44

say? Snapchat. I don't even know what

1:51:46

it is.

1:51:46

Why am I

1:51:47

going on Snapchat? I

1:51:50

shall have to get a lawyer involved in this. I don't like the

1:51:53

idea. I could be hawked around the countryside. Here

1:51:55

he is, get his tea towel, he'll pop

1:51:57

around and deliver it for you, all

1:51:59

that kind

1:51:59

of stuff. slightly worried out, please,

1:52:02

by my detail. BiTE on the global makes some noise websites,

1:52:05

makes it a

1:52:08

lot easier. for all concerns. Six fifteen

1:52:10

should we get the news headlines? We shall from Simon Conway. This is

1:52:12

LVC

1:52:13

with Steve

1:52:15

Allen. Morning. I

1:52:17

heavy company, listen, the

1:52:19

numbers have gone up. I need I

1:52:21

need a bit of a push between now

1:52:23

and half past. If if you could see your

1:52:25

way clear, to doing another twenty, I

1:52:27

go into into Big Boy's territory for the

1:52:29

tea towel. You

1:52:30

do want the tea towel. I promise

1:52:32

you you do want the tea towel. You

1:52:34

do not want the tea towel. And so another

1:52:37

another eighteen would take it into

1:52:39

a to a different

1:52:42

figure. Well, obviously, what Speaking of patent the obvious for you this morning,

1:52:44

different ballpark. If it goes up to that

1:52:46

one, please. Global's makes a noise website.

1:52:49

Go to the website Click on the shop and you will find the

1:52:52

Steve Allen Radio Royalty. Detour

1:52:54

with me sitting on the

1:52:56

radio. Don't ask why. I'm not sure

1:52:58

if there's some sort of connotation there. I

1:53:00

no idea. I'm trying not to get involved. I've

1:53:02

never Actually, the funny thing is I recognize the radio because I've got a

1:53:04

radio like that at home, but

1:53:06

it

1:53:06

was it's a modern version

1:53:10

of

1:53:10

an old fashioned valve radio, and I quite like it. And it just sort of sits there on

1:53:13

the on

1:53:16

the sideboard. Yes, I've

1:53:18

got a sideboard. Steve, I've just bought two tea towels for my friend

1:53:20

for myself and my friend

1:53:22

Kennedy and made a donation We

1:53:26

are your superfans from Selfridges. Yeah.

1:53:29

It's okay. Very excited.

1:53:31

Can you persuade the rest

1:53:33

of the store to buy a

1:53:35

tea towel, please? And Steve, I only get to

1:53:37

listen to en route to the airport. There's never usually up, but it's the highlight of my journey. So hi

1:53:39

to Hannah and Iain.

1:53:42

Hello, Hannah and Iain. And

1:53:45

Sue says don't forget postal strikes leading up to Christmas may affect your promise of delivery. That's why I

1:53:47

say buy them today, you'll get

1:53:51

the delivery in. buy them today.

1:53:53

Please buy them today. Please buy them today. Detour bought from my mom says

1:53:55

John in Winchester Sally

1:53:59

from

1:53:59

South Sea for a non surprise

1:54:02

Christmas present. I like Christmas surprise Christmas present. People always say to me, I've got

1:54:04

you a

1:54:07

nice Christmas present. could be an appearance on

1:54:09

Snapchat or something like that, I should imagine, but I'm not wild about. In fact, the more I

1:54:12

hear about

1:54:16

it, apparently, My friend Chris says it's

1:54:18

because you're on the radio because you're on the radio. We were talking

1:54:20

about on the radio before. Do you remember

1:54:22

what I told you? Chris, I meant when

1:54:24

I first got

1:54:27

not first got insurance on the car, but

1:54:29

I was with an insurance company. And I thought, I'll

1:54:31

try other insurance companies. thinking

1:54:33

perhaps I can get the price down. And they'd they always ask the same thing. What'd you

1:54:35

do for a living? What'd you do for

1:54:38

a living? And I went

1:54:40

via I

1:54:42

think we found the a a, and they targeted all these insurance

1:54:45

companies that they would find you the best deal for

1:54:47

you. Well, that was the theory. And

1:54:50

it was years ago. What'd

1:54:51

you do for Living? Hello? My name is Muriel.

1:54:53

What'd you do for Living? And so I

1:54:55

said, I'm in radio. Oh,

1:54:58

thank you very much indeed. Are you actually on

1:55:00

the radio? Yes. I'm on the

1:55:02

radio. Click. They weren't interested if you

1:55:04

were on the radio. They really weren't. And

1:55:06

then somebody wrote to me, well, wrote to

1:55:08

a number of people actually, and I was able to

1:55:10

to supply the answer, a very famous actor. who

1:55:13

said my insurance has gone through the roof. And I and he didn't know why. And I said,

1:55:15

I'll tell you why it is. It's because you're an actor.

1:55:19

Actors, jockeys, radio

1:55:22

presenters. So, right, if you

1:55:24

work backstage on a radio program,

1:55:26

if you're actually on the radio, they

1:55:28

penalize you. And you know why? It's

1:55:30

the stupidest thing you've ever because you might

1:55:32

have a celebrity in your car and you might have an

1:55:34

accident and that's why they push your premiums through the

1:55:38

roof. I

1:55:39

mean, I play at the moment. I think it's just under nine

1:55:41

hundred a year, which actually I

1:55:43

think is okay, you know, for

1:55:45

a car like mine, that's what

1:55:47

it is, but it's calls you might

1:55:49

have celebrities in the car. I mean, admittedly, over the

1:55:51

years, I have had celebrities in

1:55:55

the car. But, you know, but they worry in case you have an accident and they're going to

1:55:57

claim off the insurance. And that's what it was. I wrote back

1:55:59

to this very

1:55:59

famous actor and said that's what it

1:56:02

was. He said, I thought that's what it

1:56:04

was. because

1:56:05

it's it's such a pain. It really is. So anybody

1:56:07

in the radio. I mean, I know some people who are in the radio, on

1:56:09

the radio and haven't

1:56:10

told them

1:56:11

they say they work. you

1:56:15

know, backstage or, you know, in the control and things like that. And

1:56:17

I thought you gotta be careful because if you

1:56:19

tell a fib and then

1:56:21

you have an accident trying to claim and they

1:56:23

they other that in fact you're on the radio, it's going to invalidate your insurance. And the

1:56:25

one thing you have to have because they've got

1:56:27

you by the

1:56:30

short and curly, isn't they? on your insurance, if they say it's going

1:56:32

to cost you seven hundred pound a year, it's going to cost

1:56:34

you seven hundred pound a year. If you can't get it

1:56:37

any cheaper anywhere, The only time I did with my one, I think a

1:56:40

couple of years ago, they said it's gonna be so

1:56:42

much. I said, listen, I need to go somewhere else.

1:56:44

I need to go somewhere else. He said, well,

1:56:46

listen, give me a few minutes, the usual baloney.

1:56:48

you know you know they're gonna reduce the price of

1:56:50

it. So he came back. He said, I can do it at the same price. And then you have to be

1:56:52

grateful. You have to go

1:56:54

tomorrow. Thank you so much. you

1:56:57

know, whereas I really didn't feel that

1:56:59

grateful about the whole thing at all. See, bought your gone oh,

1:57:02

oh, it

1:57:04

you

1:57:05

need to push it a little bit more. I mean, I

1:57:07

don't I don't I don't know how to come around your house and knock on your front door and basically pin you to

1:57:09

the ground while we're on the telephone

1:57:11

to order a tea towel. It's

1:57:15

a Steve Allen radio royalty tea town. You can't

1:57:17

get them anywhere else. They're

1:57:19

not even pirated. So

1:57:21

Carl, Come on.

1:57:22

And it does go to such a good cause,

1:57:24

such a good cause. I can't impress on

1:57:26

you how good that cause is. But

1:57:29

what your details says, Jill, Thank you. Try to

1:57:31

figure out if you're sitting on a sofa or is it

1:57:33

meant to be a radio? Be careful with your reply.

1:57:35

Yes. Thank you, Jill. I

1:57:37

mean, I think it's a radio. Well, I mean, it looks

1:57:39

like a radio to me, but on the other hand,

1:57:41

you might be right. It might be

1:57:43

a sofa. Well,

1:57:45

I don't know. Might be a sofa It

1:57:47

could

1:57:47

be a radio shaped sofa. Stop playing with your

1:57:50

hair for goodness sake. Honestly,

1:57:52

faggling and and

1:57:55

and playing with it. titling around your

1:57:57

fingers. Listen, if you want curls, I'll get you one of those

1:57:59

sort of little bonnie Langford wigs or something you put on

1:58:01

your head and then you can play with your curls

1:58:03

as long as your be

1:58:06

more infuriating watching people who've got hair.

1:58:08

Whipp. Playing with their hair

1:58:11

drives me mad. Not that

1:58:13

I don't have hair. I want to stress

1:58:15

that I've had it deliberately. Shit, in fact, I'm due to

1:58:17

have a haircut today. I might go and risk

1:58:19

eleven quid and just keep it. I

1:58:21

like to keep it tidy. because

1:58:22

because if mine gets too long, it starts

1:58:24

looking a bit frizzly. And it it's not

1:58:26

a

1:58:26

good look on me. I'm not a

1:58:28

frizzet. So I have it sort of cut short.

1:58:31

And apparently, it's a sign of a reality.

1:58:33

It is fantastic.

1:58:34

I am absolutely a sign

1:58:36

of reality because I have very

1:58:38

short hair. That's probably what it is.

1:58:40

isn't it? Although, I think it's have you got

1:58:42

too much testosterone? I don't think I had any. I was very surprised when they said testosterone. mean,

1:58:47

that was about thirty years ago for haven't had any for ages. Steve,

1:58:50

Christopher Shopping yesterday, the amount of

1:58:52

American sweet shops on Oxford

1:58:54

Street is mind boggling says big

1:58:56

friend. I know. I can only

1:58:58

advise you not to go in them. The reason I say that is because they've got no prices on anything.

1:59:04

And I don't know where these places have sprung up from,

1:59:06

but they're all over the place. I've got two in Kingston, and I look at them. I go, I'm not

1:59:10

going anywhere near you. don't like

1:59:11

it at all. The the Westminster Council have closed

1:59:13

down loads of them. Loads

1:59:15

of them

1:59:16

for various reasons. But the the

1:59:18

main one being, is that they don't have prices.

1:59:20

And also, some of them

1:59:22

sell vaping stuff in

1:59:24

there, it's all a

1:59:26

bit. it's a bit tacky actually, I'm afraid. Nigel Wimbledon

1:59:28

says my wife, Joe, is

1:59:30

seriously ill and to get out

1:59:32

of bed. She can't sleep at night,

1:59:34

loves your show. you're keeping her going with the cheery banter about

1:59:36

your life. I know, well, I'm just

1:59:39

not going on Snapchat. That's what it comes

1:59:41

down to. I just don't

1:59:42

I don't want to be involved in things like

1:59:44

that. I think that's sort

1:59:46

of far too dangerous. I've got a tea towel of yours, says Nigel, which I hang over the armchair

1:59:48

by her bed to talk to.

1:59:50

It's got your head on it.

1:59:53

You're also her nurse's favorite, so the house is a happier place with you and your tea towel. I hope you got

1:59:55

the new one. The new

1:59:58

one's in color,

1:59:59

Nigel, in color.

2:00:02

I don't like to make a big deal about it, but color is a

2:00:04

bit of an impression on me. I looked at it, so

2:00:06

I just sat in. Do we want it

2:00:09

to know we want it in color? And so color it

2:00:11

is and it it would be pride a place anywhere. Seriously,

2:00:13

except Snapchat. Ted

2:00:16

Lasso is apparently

2:00:18

filmed around Richmond Hill and they used

2:00:21

the new Brentford Community Stadium as a football club. You'd recognize

2:00:23

says Brian where it's filmed. Well, apparently, where I

2:00:25

live is featured on

2:00:27

a comedy program. my friend said to

2:00:29

me the other day, said I saw your Twickenham said, that they

2:00:32

film around

2:00:33

be

2:00:36

don't know, actually.

2:00:38

And Gary in sorry?

2:00:40

2:00:45

out that you, Chris Evans, and James O'Brien,

2:00:47

went out for dinner who

2:00:49

paid, but it was lunch. and I

2:00:52

didn't put it that way. I didn't. And

2:00:54

I walked away with the present as well.

2:00:56

So how was

2:00:59

the food excellent? I had something I've

2:01:01

never had before. Never

2:01:02

had before. I'd crab pie for a starter. It was lovely. Crab

2:01:08

pie And then and then I went on to What

2:01:10

did I go on to? Oh, Haddock. I think I went on to Haddock,

2:01:12

which was very nice

2:01:14

indeed actually, Gary. Thank you for

2:01:16

inquiring. Velvet user is

2:01:18

amazing, Steve. It's a it's a velvetizer, isn't it, I believe? It's a real chocolate that goes

2:01:20

in addictive and will

2:01:23

give me obesity. What? I

2:01:26

don't need to go to that one. Thank you. NHS

2:01:28

Tim says, good morning, Steve. Alder the

that, putting a Christmas tree up

2:03:23

in my classroom, busy

2:03:27

morning, Oh, Christopher, I haven't put my tree up indoors yet. I think

2:03:29

I have to get around

2:03:30

to that. I should get around.

2:03:32

I

2:03:32

don't know when I'm gonna get

2:03:34

around to it, but I will I've got

2:03:37

another tree for outside. Apparently, according to Glyn, Ellie Taylor

2:03:39

did mock the week. Live at the Apollo amongst other

2:03:41

comedy shows, she's from Brentwood,

2:03:43

your Elma Martha. is

2:03:46

Sherry, oh, that's fine then. She's from Brentwood. We're

2:03:48

okay. I

2:03:48

know Brentwood very well. Head of the

2:03:51

Norwich nurse says last week,

2:03:53

I visited the Air Force's Memorial at

2:03:55

runnymede, which commemorates over twenty thousand men and

2:03:57

women who were lost during the Second

2:03:59

World War

2:03:59

and have

2:04:02

no known graves. on an absolutely beautiful memorial.

2:04:04

It was so peaceful and a

2:04:06

wonderful

2:04:06

tribute. It was very moving

2:04:09

to see my granddad's name

2:04:12

on one of the panels. I love running

2:04:14

me down the road from run me mead,

2:04:16

which is where they signed the Magna

2:04:18

Carta And I used to go down there quite a lot because I

2:04:20

used to follow the river to go

2:04:23

round to to Windsor. So I know

2:04:25

exactly

2:04:25

where it is, and I know

2:04:27

the Air Force's memorial and it

2:04:29

is very moving and very nice. It's all these places you can go to. Also, it's not too

2:04:31

difficult to get

2:04:35

to, is it? Nice hotel actually a little bit

2:04:37

further up there. You can go and sit by the lock and have a nice cup of tea, I

2:04:40

think. Tea

2:04:44

in Kingston, says I've just bought five tea

2:04:46

towels. That's my Christmas shopping done. Actually, to be honest with you, I'm gonna have to buy some

2:04:48

as well. How to buy my own

2:04:50

tea towels, but I don't mind that.

2:04:54

Alan said, just got my car insurance renewal up

2:04:56

fifty percent. No accidents. No nothing.

2:04:58

Best buy a tea towel to

2:05:01

wipe the tears away. It's come up

2:05:03

fifty percent. are driving God's sake? If it's gone up fifty percent, I mean,

2:05:05

that's a lot, especially as you had no See, I

2:05:07

have no accidents. No

2:05:11

nothing at all. And and so if they put it

2:05:11

up, I'll just change companies. It's as simple as

2:05:14

that. III don't want to stay with

2:05:16

a company that

2:05:19

doesn't reward me. for good behavior. And I'm a good boy

2:05:21

on the road, so I don't have accidents. I mean, that would just

2:05:23

be ridiculous, wouldn't

2:05:26

it really? Steve, I've just bolted it downstairs,

2:05:29

got to the computer, brought to

2:05:31

tea towels, says, Stella. Thank you

2:05:33

very much indeed. Samantha says I

2:05:35

bought two tea towels Steve. Hope

2:05:37

it helps. Please. Please. Thank you so much. Thank

2:05:39

you so much. Agent salary says you're sitting

2:05:41

on a radio throne because you're

2:05:43

a radio royalty. Thank

2:05:46

you. And Stellus says, oh, sorry. Same

2:05:48

one. Pam and Glasgow. Steve, I've just

2:05:51

purchased a tea towel and donated to.

2:05:53

The tea towel looks fab. I love listening to

2:05:55

you as you set me up for my day. Listen, thank

2:05:57

from the bottom of my heart. Thank you

2:05:59

so much.

2:06:00

You know, it's it's so important

2:06:03

that the work continues. And just by buying a tea

2:06:05

towel, you know, it's it's not like just

2:06:07

giving a donation to a

2:06:09

charity. It's a case of you give us

2:06:11

some money. We give you a nice gift back. So it's

2:06:14

it's a win win situation.

2:06:16

Lorraine says bought the tea

2:06:18

towel. I work for a charity.

2:06:20

and I know how important it is what you

2:06:22

and the team are doing for small charities. We can't compete against the big well

2:06:24

known ones. So thank

2:06:26

you on behalf of those small

2:06:28

charities that will benefit from your generosity. It

2:06:30

is they they they can't compete the little charities. They really

2:06:33

they really

2:06:33

struggle, and that's why it's

2:06:36

so important that

2:06:38

we can support more than a hundred brilliant

2:06:40

small charities. That's what's that's

2:06:43

what's so nice about it because

2:06:45

it's not we all know who the big

2:06:47

ones are. We know how much money they they

2:06:49

they break in, but these are little charities. You know,

2:06:51

ten, fifteen

2:06:52

people. who

2:06:54

are raising money for all sorts

2:06:56

of events and situations that just need

2:06:58

dealing with. I mean, we know how

2:07:01

how difficult it is to

2:07:03

get, you know, help for people with health domestic violence,

2:07:08

carers, community support, things like that.

2:07:10

So by you buying one of my tea towels, I like to think that, you

2:07:12

know, that's that's your good

2:07:14

deed for the day. I

2:07:18

think that's, you know, you can patch yourselves

2:07:20

on the back for doing something

2:07:22

really really nice and I'm I'm

2:07:24

extremely grateful. Thank you. Said Capgemini says, I

2:07:27

bought your lovely tea towel for my mom.

2:07:29

You've made

2:07:29

my day. Thank you. And Terry

2:07:31

and Layton says, I've just bought

2:07:33

your tea towel. to go with all the other make some

2:07:35

nice items. Good for you. Good

2:07:37

for you. Clive and Ramsgate bought

2:07:40

five. Five.

2:07:41

hi almost

2:07:42

unheard of almost unheard of.

2:07:45

So we are pushing

2:07:47

up the numbers. We've

2:07:49

raised many thousands of pounds this morning, but

2:07:51

it goes on. It goes on. It'll go on tomorrow as well. I should be thanking you

2:07:52

every day

2:07:56

this week. for

2:07:57

the money that you've given and to say thank

2:07:59

you sometimes just isn't enough, is

2:08:02

it? It really isn't,

2:08:04

but Thank

2:08:07

you anyway. Bonnie Langford

2:08:09

has been a fixture of

2:08:11

stage

2:08:11

screen for fifty

2:08:13

years. And in fact, she hits the

2:08:15

West End, but awaits a call from

2:08:18

Wolford. I think she'd

2:08:19

be very good, actually. very

2:08:21

good in in Wolford. And her character was in the

2:08:23

show from fifteen to eighteen, twenty seen

2:08:28

fleeing e twenty after her son,

2:08:30

cush, was stabbed to death by

2:08:32

a London gang member, also Cheery

2:08:34

Story on Eastenders, I like those

2:08:37

cherry happy stories. The funny thing is people don't want happy

2:08:39

stories. They really don't people

2:08:42

people want they

2:08:44

want miserable stories. They want murders and muggings and things

2:08:46

like that. We're not get it sells, doesn't it? If

2:08:49

somebody said once,

2:08:51

if there was If there was a

2:08:53

a newspaper, I think they did bring out a newspaper. It's like sunshine days or

2:08:55

something. And people don't want to read about happy

2:08:58

things. They want to read about miserable

2:09:00

things. And

2:09:02

that

2:09:02

that seems to sell. It's all a

2:09:05

bit disappointing, isn't it really? I've got a bit

2:09:07

sorry about the this landslide

2:09:09

on the Italian resort

2:09:11

island of Isha, And literally, this the

2:09:13

whole mountain moved. And, Pete, there was one woman on her phone

2:09:15

to her father. And she

2:09:18

said, it's the mountains

2:09:20

moving.

2:09:20

moving That was

2:09:21

the last he heard of

2:09:23

her. They found her body a little bit later, mud and water tended to I don't know if you've

2:09:25

ever seen on YouTube

2:09:28

BOSS Castle. Got

2:09:30

it, Bost Castle. They had a flood.

2:09:32

It's in this country. Bost Castle.

2:09:34

And all of a

2:09:36

sudden, the whole mountain exploded

2:09:38

with all this water. and this beautiful little village, a

2:09:40

BOSS castle, with all of a sudden

2:09:42

under siege, cars were floating down

2:09:45

the high street. I've I've never seen anything

2:09:47

like it. It was just absolutely

2:09:50

amazing. You looked at the

2:09:52

floods. Look at it.

2:09:53

You can't imagine the

2:09:55

power of water you know, within our

2:09:57

lifetime. And it just came down and the mud and the mess

2:09:59

and everything. This was in

2:10:01

two thousand and four, a

2:10:04

flash flood probability.

2:10:06

One in I mean, when you look at

2:10:08

the place, it's beautiful. Absolutely

2:10:11

beautiful. And then you look then

2:10:13

this river starts building up. They had

2:10:15

a a of thunder and lightning, and then you

2:10:17

looked at it, it was up to the top of

2:10:20

houses. It was really the

2:10:22

most awful thing I'd ever seen

2:10:24

people's cars were floating down there. And the force

2:10:26

of it was just unbelievable. So when you get these search

2:10:29

teams over on this

2:10:31

Italian resort island, you

2:10:34

know, looking for people. There's coaches which are half submerged in the mud that comes down with it, in

2:10:39

China as well. China's terrible.

2:10:41

People build on mountain sides, and all of a sudden, the mountain just gets so so

2:10:44

wet. It

2:10:48

just collapses

2:10:49

the whole thing. It's terrible.

2:10:51

Cara Delevingen claims making her documentary planet

2:10:56

sex has changed her life and hopes it will

2:10:58

help others struggling with their sexuality. Why do people feel this need? I know it seems

2:11:02

what we quite mean. to discuss their sexuality with people all

2:11:04

the time. I mean, is it some sort

2:11:06

of cathartic way of dealing with it?

2:11:10

I've never perhaps six. Yeah.

2:11:10

But I mean, but they make television programs about other

2:11:13

people now. And I'm I'm sure people sit

2:11:15

there. I don't think they get the audiences.

2:11:17

I mean, if they're doing one on Scarlet Moffett,

2:11:19

how to failure driving test thirteen times, and that's

2:11:21

the television program. There is

2:11:23

no hope. I'd rather she sat

2:11:25

there and made a cake and stuff

2:11:27

to face with it, make it marginally more entertaining, but drive part

2:11:30

failing thirteen times is about

2:11:32

as bad as it gets. Why would

2:11:34

you and where does she go

2:11:36

to? I mean, she's a bitty.

2:11:38

She can't park the blumen thing. goes to McDonald's get nuggets.

2:11:43

I'm going no. don't learn how to park

2:11:45

the car. That would be preferable, but they do that now. Don't know. They

2:11:47

make sort of I think they do it. Is

2:11:49

it sort of a it's a a cheap program

2:11:52

to make? Steve,

2:11:55

are you going to check out the pop

2:11:57

up KFC pub that's owned in Hammersmiths,

2:11:59

says I'm

2:11:59

here. I can't like the

2:12:02

concept of drunken chicken. never had drunken

2:12:03

chicken. I don't I

2:12:06

don't like

2:12:07

gravy. Chicken gravy. They do

2:12:09

and people go, oh, it's really

2:12:11

good, isn't it? So this is

2:12:13

the first ever pub serving KFC. I don't mind the outside red. It looks

2:12:16

nice

2:12:16

actually, but

2:12:19

the colonel's

2:12:20

arms He

2:12:22

didn't make any money out of it. Did

2:12:24

he colonel Saunders? He sold the

2:12:26

company really cheaply, little realizing that

2:12:28

it was gonna take off in in

2:12:30

such a way. so people liked it. But it does vary, doesn't it?

2:12:33

You can get all these different

2:12:34

chicken places now sort of

2:12:38

whoopee chicken and chicken and

2:12:40

things like that. And yeah. Roosters and all that kind

2:12:42

of stuff. I mean, I do like it occasionally, but not

2:12:45

very often, it's a

2:12:47

bit salty for me. you know, and that

2:12:49

sort of I think that just makes you want to drink more. So

2:12:51

it probably goes well with a with a probably a beer or something, but

2:12:53

I don't drink beer. So

2:12:55

there you go. What

2:12:58

my beer? I don't I've never had beer. I've never drunk beer in my life. I've worked in pubs and bars.

2:12:59

I've never had a beer. bit

2:13:05

bit too butch

2:13:05

for me, I think. It's Prosecco. I'm afraid I'll just go over a bottle of Prosecco. I remember sitting in a

2:13:08

restaurant once and having a bottle of Prosecco

2:13:10

with some friends and they said how many

2:13:12

glasses? and

2:13:14

I looked and I went one. Hello, mom, do you

2:13:16

want to share a bottle of Brisecco? I can't believe

2:13:19

it. Some people are so funny, aren't they?

2:13:21

Quarter to seven, let's get the

2:14:08

They say or

2:14:10

is it difficult to be a radio presenter? I

2:14:12

said, well, not for people who can't do it. For people who

2:14:14

cause. It is

such a good cause. It seriously

2:16:13

2:16:16

be getting the help and

2:16:18

the more money they get the

2:16:22

more money we can gift to them, and the more people they can help. It doesn't matter whether it's, you children

2:17:36

return, What

2:17:40

do I mean, I can

2:17:42

have to be really mean. Why don't

2:17:44

we just leave them up the

2:17:46

gantries? Why don't we just put a

2:17:48

net underneath it and say, you know,

2:17:50

bloody well stay there? You know, you wanna climb a gantry? Climb a gantry. You wanna get down? You can't. We're

2:17:57

not gonna let you come down. You could stay out there all

2:17:59

day as far as I'm

2:17:59

concerned. I

2:18:02

just don't understand why we're wasting time with

2:18:04

these numpeties. You know,

2:18:05

sweater braverman, braverman, keep saying the same thing

2:18:07

all the time as the last

2:18:09

one did. Oh, we're gonna do something about

2:18:11

it. They haven't done anything. They've done nothing.

2:18:13

It's so annoying. It really is. Caroline

2:18:14

is on the a three and says, Steve, I shall be buying my

2:18:18

tea towel as soon as I get to work

2:18:20

in about half an hour. Oh, please do. Please

2:18:22

do.

2:18:22

Wendy says bought two tea towels, Steve, and the holy

2:18:26

wreath on its way soon. For

2:18:28

my holy wreath girls. That's even even better news.

2:18:31

Thank you very much indeed. I mean, we've we've

2:18:34

sold a lot of tea towels this

2:18:37

morning, but that the

2:18:37

pushing goes on. I've got a I've got a few to to

2:18:40

sell

2:18:42

and and I'd love it if you

2:18:44

bought one because it it just helps

2:18:46

in so many different ways and to help all these little charities is great.

2:18:48

Friends help out Camilla. As

2:18:50

you know, I told you

2:18:52

at the beginning of the

2:18:54

program because she's not gonna have Ladies

2:18:56

and waiting, it's gonna be a different kind of a

2:18:58

role. But the good news is that Prince Andrew has

2:19:01

lost his royal protection. I'm sorry, you can't wipe the smile

2:19:03

off my face on that one. because

2:19:04

to be honest with you, what a waste

2:19:06

of three million quid, what

2:19:08

a waste, I wouldn't mind, but everything that prince Andrew has

2:19:10

got at the moment, he's brought on himself and everybody's brought it on

2:19:12

him He's

2:19:14

done this all by himself clever

2:19:16

old you, Andrew. Clever old you, you

2:19:18

know, perhaps, you know, royal protection officers. shouldn't

2:19:21

imagine they enjoyed working with

2:19:24

him anywhere. He's he's very,

2:19:26

very petulant. Very petulant. Plus floods and

2:19:28

drought in this sudden weather.

2:19:30

I mean, it's amazing. I'm looking at pictures here

2:19:32

of fields under I remember what it was like this years and

2:19:34

years ago. Fields underwater, you know, cows standing on a little island in the middle trying to get

2:19:39

sort of some sort of respite out of

2:19:41

the whole blum in thing. And, you know, we hope it we hope it goes well. There's twenty million

2:19:43

pound funding coming the way to boost and

2:19:48

save the nation's woodlands. I don't want

2:19:50

to see them losing it. I

2:19:53

really don't. I like the I like

2:19:55

the the woodlands that we've got

2:19:57

and over in China, public anger, the COVID lockdown, they've had

2:19:59

enough. So they've started fighting

2:20:02

back a little bit of a losing

2:20:04

game. I think on that one, and also

2:20:06

Barbie topping for Christmas and Phil Vicery says he's

2:20:09

completely happy

2:20:10

with the single life following

2:20:12

his split from from phone, the couple announced their

2:20:14

breakup in twenty twenty after twenty years together,

2:20:17

he says, if if I'm honest, he

2:20:20

says, I actually love it. People say, I don't

2:20:22

believe you, but it's great. Life deals you a set of cards and that's the way it is.

2:20:26

It's true. I don't see why you should have to

2:20:28

be in relationships. People who Oh, you're not in a

2:20:30

relationship or you can be lonely. Absolutely not. How

2:20:33

can you be lonely with the amount of

2:20:35

support that I get on this program? you

2:20:37

know, for selling some tea towels with my

2:20:39

pretty impressive image on. And, you know, I'm gonna

2:20:41

make a big deal about it, a bit

2:20:43

of high tier on snap chat, there'll be heads

2:20:45

rolling somewhere I should imagine. Don't make a big deal

2:20:47

about it or issue it

2:20:50

as a threat or anything like that, but

2:20:52

take it as. So it's one

2:20:54

of those things. It's one of

2:20:56

those things. But, no, we love

2:20:58

Phil Vicery. We get so many celebrities. We're

2:21:00

Andy Peters, who listens on a regular basis.

2:21:02

Then turns up on the television with a camper van and money and and

2:21:07

chocolate and all sorts of things, and

2:21:09

yet it doesn't put on an ounce

2:21:11

of weight. It's sickening. Seriously, absolutely sickening. There's

2:21:14

another feature which you might like if

2:21:16

you're an animal lover. Profit hungry vets, they say,

2:21:18

making a killing thanks to besotted owners desperate to keep their pets alive

2:21:23

I don't I mean, I always say

2:21:25

to people, if if you've got a pet,

2:21:27

a dog, a cat, or anything like that, you need pet You cannot do it. without

2:21:32

pet

2:21:32

insurance, it is so expensive. So if

2:21:34

you've got the insurance, at least, it sort

2:21:36

of it sort of covers you. Well, that's

2:21:39

the whole idea of it. I'm gonna

2:21:41

go home and enjoy my my crumpets

2:21:43

today, my snowman crumpets, which are very nice

2:21:45

indeed. And I've got them all ready,

2:21:47

so I just pop them in the

2:21:49

in in the toaster. That'll be good.
