I'm Kevin Bridges and this is my wee telly show, | 0:00:02 | 0:00:05 | |
Kevin Bridges: What's the Story? | 0:00:05 | 0:00:07 | |
As a stand-up comedian, I'm often asked how I came up with my material. | 0:00:07 | 0:00:12 | |
Not really that often am I asked, but I've been asked. Twice. | 0:00:12 | 0:00:15 | |
Once by a lifeguard and now by the BBC, so here we are. | 0:00:15 | 0:00:19 | |
This series I'll go behind the jokes | 0:00:19 | 0:00:21 | |
and show you the real-life stories behind my comedy routines. | 0:00:21 | 0:00:24 | |
This episode - lifestyle. | 0:00:24 | 0:00:26 | |
This programme contains some strong language | 0:00:26 | 0:00:33 | |
The general consensus is that we live in a society obsessed | 0:00:52 | 0:00:55 | |
with what we eat, what we wear, how we look. | 0:00:55 | 0:00:58 | |
I don't preoccupy myself too much with style and material goods | 0:00:58 | 0:01:01 | |
because I don't have the patience. | 0:01:01 | 0:01:03 | |
Life's too short for salon haircuts and cross-trainers | 0:01:03 | 0:01:06 | |
and shop changing rooms. | 0:01:06 | 0:01:08 | |
I want to see if there's better ways to stay healthy and look cool. | 0:01:08 | 0:01:12 | |
You walk in somewhere trendy like Topshop for a pair of jeans. | 0:01:16 | 0:01:19 | |
Somewhere trendier than that maybe, River Island. | 0:01:19 | 0:01:22 | |
Walk into River Island and some - | 0:01:22 | 0:01:23 | |
you know the sales assistants that work in these places - | 0:01:23 | 0:01:26 | |
some indie band freak show that comes bouncing across to serve you. | 0:01:26 | 0:01:31 | |
They've got that kind of, "Hey, man, yeah, woo!" | 0:01:31 | 0:01:34 | |
Telling you to chillax. | 0:01:38 | 0:01:41 | |
"Everybody just chillax, man!" Anybody ever told you to chillax? | 0:01:42 | 0:01:46 | |
They took the word, "chill," and the word, "relax," and combined them | 0:01:46 | 0:01:49 | |
to make ironically the most infuriating word there's ever been. | 0:01:49 | 0:01:54 | |
They come bouncing over, this guy. | 0:01:54 | 0:01:55 | |
They've got that kind of energy and enthusiasm | 0:01:55 | 0:01:58 | |
that oozes from people who've never been punched in the face. | 0:01:58 | 0:02:02 | |
But you require this guy's assistance. | 0:02:09 | 0:02:12 | |
You're in Topshop, they sell jeans. You're in Topshop, you need jeans. | 0:02:12 | 0:02:17 | |
You have to say, "Excuse me, mate. Can I try on these jeans, please? | 0:02:17 | 0:02:21 | |
"In a 36 inch waist." | 0:02:21 | 0:02:25 | |
His enthusiasm... | 0:02:25 | 0:02:27 | |
Was that you? Good to see you again. Right, 36 inch. | 0:02:33 | 0:02:36 | |
Try a 38! | 0:02:38 | 0:02:40 | |
Try a 38? | 0:02:40 | 0:02:41 | |
Fuck you, man. | 0:02:42 | 0:02:44 | |
APPLAUSE | 0:02:44 | 0:02:48 | |
Asked the guy, try the jeans on in a 38 inch waist. Good call. | 0:02:52 | 0:02:56 | |
Shut it. | 0:02:56 | 0:02:57 | |
38 inch waist. | 0:02:57 | 0:02:58 | |
Regardless, 36, 38 inch waist. | 0:03:02 | 0:03:05 | |
You say to the guy, "Can I try these jeans on in a 40 inch waist?" | 0:03:05 | 0:03:10 | |
38 inch waist and the guy, his enthusiasm just drains. | 0:03:10 | 0:03:15 | |
He looks at you appalled. | 0:03:15 | 0:03:16 | |
You know that way you would look at somebody | 0:03:16 | 0:03:19 | |
if they just took a shite in your kettle. | 0:03:19 | 0:03:22 | |
Clothes shopping makes my blood boil. Annoying music, annoying staff | 0:03:35 | 0:03:40 | |
and sizes that don't really cater for the shape of a real guy. | 0:03:40 | 0:03:43 | |
My bad experiences of buying jeans are genuine | 0:03:43 | 0:03:45 | |
but I've heard there is a man who could help bail me out. | 0:03:45 | 0:03:49 | |
-Rabii. -How you doing, sir? -Rabii Denim, is that what it says? | 0:03:49 | 0:03:53 | |
Looks like Rabbi Denims. | 0:03:53 | 0:03:55 | |
When I seen the sign I thought you were catering to a niche market. | 0:03:55 | 0:03:58 | |
-No, no. -You only make denims for Rabbis. | 0:03:58 | 0:04:01 | |
I find shopping quite a stressful experience, | 0:04:01 | 0:04:04 | |
especially for jeans. You walk in, | 0:04:04 | 0:04:07 | |
you go in the changing room, you've got your nice loose-fitting jeans on. | 0:04:07 | 0:04:11 | |
You need to try on a brand new pair and they're just too tight. | 0:04:11 | 0:04:14 | |
I need a pair of jeans made. | 0:04:14 | 0:04:16 | |
I'm your man. Take your jacket off, right. | 0:04:16 | 0:04:19 | |
Then I can get your measurements basically. Lift up your top. | 0:04:19 | 0:04:22 | |
-That's us, mate. -Need to get my gut in. | 0:04:22 | 0:04:25 | |
-Oh no, don't hold your gut in. Right, you're a 40. -40 inch! | 0:04:25 | 0:04:28 | |
40 inch, which basically means you're a 36 in the shops. | 0:04:28 | 0:04:31 | |
-These jeans are a 36. -That's right, then. | 0:04:31 | 0:04:34 | |
-You're always four inch bigger than the shop's size. -Right. | 0:04:34 | 0:04:37 | |
Any pupil with an eating disorder watching, you're actually... | 0:04:37 | 0:04:41 | |
You're actually fatter than what you are. | 0:04:41 | 0:04:44 | |
Right, Kev, don't be scared. | 0:04:44 | 0:04:46 | |
It's not my finger, it's a bit of brass. | 0:04:46 | 0:04:49 | |
-Hold that exactly there. -What are you measuring here? | 0:04:50 | 0:04:54 | |
Your front rise to your middle seam here. | 0:04:54 | 0:04:57 | |
You're measuring my front rise? | 0:04:57 | 0:04:59 | |
-Aye, front rise, mate. Right the way around, you're 65. -65. | 0:04:59 | 0:05:04 | |
That's a big rise! | 0:05:04 | 0:05:06 | |
Quite a small front rise, mate. | 0:05:07 | 0:05:09 | |
Is that one of the smallest front rises you've ever seen? | 0:05:09 | 0:05:12 | |
No, that's quite average, mate. | 0:05:12 | 0:05:15 | |
So, 64 take away 27... | 0:05:15 | 0:05:16 | |
-So I need to pick one of these? -Aye. | 0:05:18 | 0:05:20 | |
I'll take that one right at the bottom there. | 0:05:20 | 0:05:23 | |
-What is that, pink and yellow? -Pink and yellow, my man. No. | 0:05:23 | 0:05:25 | |
No? How come? | 0:05:25 | 0:05:27 | |
-No, just... -I thought I had the choice. | 0:05:27 | 0:05:30 | |
You should have said I've got the choice of all of these except the one you want. | 0:05:30 | 0:05:34 | |
-Have you got pink and yellow? -Mm-hmm. | 0:05:34 | 0:05:36 | |
It's 2012. You need to broaden your mind, Rab. | 0:05:36 | 0:05:40 | |
Here, I'm in touch with my feminine side, man. | 0:05:40 | 0:05:42 | |
You need to target the pink pound if you want this business to work. | 0:05:42 | 0:05:46 | |
You ever refused anybody's request other than mine? | 0:05:46 | 0:05:50 | |
One rapper guy came in and he wanted his name all the way down. | 0:05:50 | 0:05:54 | |
Can't even remember his bloody name. Seriously. J-Dog, I don't know. | 0:05:54 | 0:05:59 | |
-J-Dog? -Something like that. -Can I get K-Dog? My rap name. | 0:05:59 | 0:06:04 | |
-Whatever you wanted, aye. -Pair of K-Dog jeans. -Right, next week. | 0:06:04 | 0:06:07 | |
Next week. What a man, thank you. Looking forward to seeing them. | 0:06:07 | 0:06:11 | |
Nae bother. Cannae wait. Cannae wait, man. | 0:06:11 | 0:06:13 | |
In a week's time, I'll own a pair of bespoke jeans for the same price | 0:06:17 | 0:06:21 | |
I could have had a two-week holiday in the Algarve, | 0:06:21 | 0:06:23 | |
but I've avoided the shops for another year. | 0:06:23 | 0:06:27 | |
This could potentially save me from having to visit | 0:06:27 | 0:06:30 | |
some of the high street's less than salubrious stores. | 0:06:30 | 0:06:34 | |
So I started shopping in a proper shit-hole clothes shop. | 0:06:34 | 0:06:38 | |
You don't get judged in a proper shit-hole clothes shop. | 0:06:38 | 0:06:43 | |
I was in a place called Dunnes Stores. | 0:06:43 | 0:06:46 | |
I've got a theory about clothes shops. | 0:06:47 | 0:06:49 | |
I find in a clothes shop, the cheaper the clothes, | 0:06:49 | 0:06:52 | |
the more aggressive the customer. | 0:06:52 | 0:06:54 | |
Anybody ever done that thing, you've been in a shop | 0:06:54 | 0:06:56 | |
and you confuse another shopper for being a member of the staff? | 0:06:56 | 0:07:00 | |
You go to ask them a question and they go, "I don't actually.... | 0:07:01 | 0:07:05 | |
"I don't actually work here." | 0:07:05 | 0:07:07 | |
And you go, "Haha, I thought you worked here," | 0:07:07 | 0:07:10 | |
and you both share a chuckle and move on. | 0:07:10 | 0:07:12 | |
Finished. However, in Dunnes Stores, it's no laughing matter. | 0:07:14 | 0:07:19 | |
The cheaper the clothes, the more aggressive the customer. | 0:07:19 | 0:07:22 | |
Tensions run through the roof in these kind of places. | 0:07:22 | 0:07:25 | |
I was in this dump when a guy said to me, | 0:07:25 | 0:07:30 | |
he said, "Excuse me. Excuse me. | 0:07:30 | 0:07:33 | |
"Excuse me, buddy!" | 0:07:33 | 0:07:35 | |
"How much? How much are these?" | 0:07:39 | 0:07:43 | |
And I said, "Ha, | 0:07:45 | 0:07:50 | |
"I don't actually work here, buddy." | 0:07:50 | 0:07:53 | |
He said, "That's not what I fucking asked you." | 0:07:53 | 0:07:56 | |
My lifestyle plays a big influence on my wardrobe and on my image. | 0:08:03 | 0:08:08 | |
But would that all change if I could reach my physical peak | 0:08:10 | 0:08:15 | |
and get nearer to my ideal weight, whatever that is. | 0:08:15 | 0:08:18 | |
I'm hoping that giving boxing a shot might keep me interested | 0:08:18 | 0:08:22 | |
long enough to get fit and rather than start at the bottom... | 0:08:22 | 0:08:26 | |
How you doing, Ricky? | 0:08:26 | 0:08:27 | |
I arranged a sparring session with double world champion Ricky Burns. | 0:08:27 | 0:08:31 | |
-How you doing? -Aye, no bad. -Good to meet you, champ. -How's yourself? | 0:08:31 | 0:08:34 | |
Aye, no bad, man. Are you at your peak just now? | 0:08:34 | 0:08:37 | |
Obviously, the fight was a couple of weeks ago so I've let myself go. | 0:08:37 | 0:08:40 | |
-This is you let yourself go? -I'm still in reasonable condition. | 0:08:40 | 0:08:44 | |
-I was gonnae say, unacceptable. -When you're starting back, | 0:08:44 | 0:08:47 | |
starting from scratch, it's amazing how fast | 0:08:47 | 0:08:50 | |
-your fitness level drops. -You say starting from scratch. | 0:08:50 | 0:08:52 | |
This is starting from scratch. | 0:08:52 | 0:08:55 | |
Your favourite subject at school? | 0:08:55 | 0:08:58 | |
P.E. | 0:08:58 | 0:08:59 | |
P.E. Same here, man. | 0:08:59 | 0:09:01 | |
I was always the fat guy that brought in a note. | 0:09:05 | 0:09:08 | |
"Please excuse Kevin from volleyball. He's fucked off to the chip van." | 0:09:10 | 0:09:15 | |
That's what P.E. stood for, for me - "Please Excuse." | 0:09:21 | 0:09:24 | |
I'll put these on and then we'll hit the bags. | 0:09:26 | 0:09:29 | |
Before I step into the ring with the champ, | 0:09:29 | 0:09:32 | |
I need a few tips on how to hit a bag from Ricky's trainer, Billy Nelson. | 0:09:32 | 0:09:36 | |
Want to show him how it's done, Ricky. Body shot. | 0:09:36 | 0:09:38 | |
Right, Kevin. That's what you've got to look forward to... | 0:09:43 | 0:09:47 | |
Just that noise and then it's level with my nuts. | 0:09:47 | 0:09:49 | |
Imagine getting one of them right in the balls. | 0:09:49 | 0:09:53 | |
Turn it round, that's it. That's it. | 0:09:53 | 0:09:57 | |
So as when you're punching, all the force is going up your arm. | 0:09:57 | 0:10:01 | |
If you were to punch it like that, if you never connected | 0:10:01 | 0:10:04 | |
on the bag properly you could damage your wrist. | 0:10:04 | 0:10:06 | |
-I've got very strong wrists. -I believe you have. | 0:10:06 | 0:10:09 | |
Years of practice. | 0:10:09 | 0:10:11 | |
-One, two. -I've been working on my wrists since I was 13. | 0:10:11 | 0:10:14 | |
-Right, left, right. -Don't say right, left, right. | 0:10:14 | 0:10:16 | |
Talk to me in PlayStation terms. X, Circle, L2, Square. | 0:10:16 | 0:10:20 | |
Right. | 0:10:20 | 0:10:22 | |
-Ah! -See. -Forgot to turn the glove. -You forgot to turn your glove. | 0:10:24 | 0:10:27 | |
-That's that strong wrist of yours away again. -That's done my wrist. | 0:10:27 | 0:10:31 | |
I'm going to need to try to find a girlfriend now. | 0:10:31 | 0:10:34 | |
Come on in, Kevin. | 0:10:34 | 0:10:37 | |
After five minutes of training on a punch bag, | 0:10:37 | 0:10:40 | |
I am then invited into the ring to do a bit of supervised sparring with Ricky. | 0:10:40 | 0:10:43 | |
Would you feel confident, Ricky, | 0:10:43 | 0:10:45 | |
if you seen a guy getting into the ring like that? | 0:10:45 | 0:10:47 | |
-Would you think he was maybe hustling you? -Let's do this! | 0:10:47 | 0:10:52 | |
I'm lethal when I'm on the ropes. That's when I'm most dangerous. | 0:10:55 | 0:10:59 | |
Interesting tactics here. Muhammad Ali-esque. | 0:11:03 | 0:11:07 | |
Just going to tire you out. | 0:11:07 | 0:11:09 | |
He's losing on points, he's got to go for the knockout here. | 0:11:09 | 0:11:13 | |
Don't know if I can take much more of them. | 0:11:13 | 0:11:16 | |
-Up you get. -And still the new overweight champion of the world! | 0:11:23 | 0:11:28 | |
-Well done, man. You done excellent, well done. -Think I've got a future? | 0:11:28 | 0:11:32 | |
-The potential is there. -I'm the fans' fighter. | 0:11:32 | 0:11:35 | |
Done that for you guys at home. | 0:11:35 | 0:11:37 | |
I'm not sure if I'll ever develop the self-discipline needed | 0:11:42 | 0:11:45 | |
for any kind of long-term fitness. | 0:11:45 | 0:11:48 | |
When it comes to fitness and healthy living, I always see it as something | 0:11:48 | 0:11:54 | |
that feels good at the time but for the long run, is it really worth it? | 0:11:54 | 0:11:58 | |
People have got flawed perceptions of their size and it works in a few different ways. | 0:12:02 | 0:12:06 | |
I'll use women as an example here. | 0:12:06 | 0:12:08 | |
You know you get girls who are skinny and they think they're a bit chubby. | 0:12:08 | 0:12:11 | |
Girls who are chubby think they're fat. | 0:12:11 | 0:12:13 | |
Fat girls think they're obese | 0:12:13 | 0:12:15 | |
and then obese girls think they're supermodels. | 0:12:15 | 0:12:18 | |
They're the happy people. | 0:12:27 | 0:12:29 | |
They're the ones hanging out of limousines on a Friday night. | 0:12:29 | 0:12:33 | |
Going, "Aaaahhhh!" | 0:12:35 | 0:12:38 | |
The driver's going, "Can you lean in, please? | 0:12:38 | 0:12:40 | |
"You're gonnae fucking tip this thing." | 0:12:40 | 0:12:43 | |
They're the first ones on the karaoke. They're the happy people. | 0:12:54 | 0:12:59 | |
Even though my comedy is based on observation, | 0:13:02 | 0:13:04 | |
there are some things I've never actually experienced. | 0:13:04 | 0:13:08 | |
How are we doing, ladies? All aboard the Bonkers Bus. | 0:13:09 | 0:13:13 | |
I have to take an educated guess at what really happens | 0:13:13 | 0:13:16 | |
when women go out together. | 0:13:16 | 0:13:18 | |
Nae nonsense, girls. It's party time. I feel terrified. | 0:13:18 | 0:13:22 | |
Tonight, I'll find out what women really get up to | 0:13:24 | 0:13:27 | |
when they get all dressed up for a night out on a bus. | 0:13:27 | 0:13:31 | |
How we doing? A big hand for Dave, first of all. | 0:13:49 | 0:13:52 | |
Let's hear some cheering for Dave, the driver. | 0:13:52 | 0:13:55 | |
-The driver of the Bonkers Bus. Where am I sitting? -Here, darling. | 0:13:57 | 0:14:01 | |
That'll do you, that's your type. | 0:14:01 | 0:14:04 | |
What is everybody drinking? | 0:14:09 | 0:14:12 | |
-Brut champagne. -Is that a home-brew? | 0:14:12 | 0:14:16 | |
I love how you're pouring it out of a two-litre bottle into a champagne glass. | 0:14:17 | 0:14:21 | |
Trying to upgrade to some level of class there. | 0:14:21 | 0:14:24 | |
So we don't know what we're celebrating, just having a drink on the bus. | 0:14:24 | 0:14:28 | |
-Just a night out with you. -Just a night out with me! | 0:14:28 | 0:14:31 | |
What's that? | 0:14:31 | 0:14:33 | |
INAUDIBLE BANTER | 0:14:33 | 0:14:35 | |
I can't even hear what anybody's saying. | 0:14:35 | 0:14:38 | |
Just like 16 smoke alarms going off. | 0:14:38 | 0:14:40 | |
You'd better not have a mental boyfriend who's gonnae come and shoot me. | 0:14:42 | 0:14:47 | |
You ever clicked on a computer and you've had a sort of virus and there's loads of pop-ups. | 0:14:49 | 0:14:53 | |
You're trying to click close, close, close | 0:14:53 | 0:14:55 | |
and your head's about to explode. | 0:14:55 | 0:14:57 | |
That's what I feel like. I need to hit CTRL-ALT-DELETE on my brain. | 0:14:57 | 0:15:01 | |
One 25-year-old guy in the midst of 15 women charged up | 0:15:08 | 0:15:11 | |
for a night up on the Bonkers Bus. | 0:15:11 | 0:15:14 | |
After 20 minutes, there is only one loser. | 0:15:16 | 0:15:19 | |
My head is frazzled. | 0:15:19 | 0:15:23 | |
Cheers! Respect! | 0:15:23 | 0:15:26 | |
Home time. | 0:15:30 | 0:15:31 | |
Home time on a Saturday night usually involves | 0:15:34 | 0:15:37 | |
a journey into the world of deep-fried, high fat, salty, | 0:15:37 | 0:15:40 | |
barely edible food but I'll avoid that temptation...for now, anyway. | 0:15:40 | 0:15:45 | |
I'm not denying the dangers of a bad diet | 0:15:55 | 0:15:57 | |
but it's also human nature to want to indulge yourself. | 0:15:57 | 0:16:00 | |
I'm heading to one of Glasgow's better restaurants to enjoy | 0:16:03 | 0:16:07 | |
a gourmet version of a favourite childhood delicacy of mine, | 0:16:07 | 0:16:10 | |
a deep-fried pizza in batter, | 0:16:10 | 0:16:13 | |
known locally as a pizza crunch. | 0:16:13 | 0:16:15 | |
At school I used to be eligible for a dinner ticket and anybody who | 0:16:15 | 0:16:19 | |
was eligible for a dinner ticket refused to use it | 0:16:19 | 0:16:22 | |
as a matter of pride, there was only the people who weren't eligible, | 0:16:22 | 0:16:25 | |
they would buy your dinner ticket, so I would always sell mine for a quid. | 0:16:25 | 0:16:29 | |
Well, that sounds quite good. | 0:16:29 | 0:16:31 | |
Aye, and then I would go to the chip van. | 0:16:31 | 0:16:33 | |
You'll go far. | 0:16:33 | 0:16:34 | |
Aye, a business brain. | 0:16:34 | 0:16:36 | |
Then I used my pound to buy a pizza crunch and chips. | 0:16:36 | 0:16:39 | |
-Right. -So that was five days a week. | 0:16:39 | 0:16:42 | |
-Ooh! -Right through school, eating a deep-fried pizza and chips. | 0:16:42 | 0:16:45 | |
It's remarkable you've kept that athletic form. | 0:16:45 | 0:16:48 | |
I know. | 0:16:48 | 0:16:49 | |
We're in the middle of an obesity epidemic. | 0:16:52 | 0:16:54 | |
I don't know if I've got fat people in the room, any fat people in? | 0:16:54 | 0:16:58 | |
CHEERING | 0:16:58 | 0:16:59 | |
I'm a little bit rotund, myself. I don't mean I'm fat, | 0:16:59 | 0:17:02 | |
I'll give myself chubby, I'm not documentary fat. | 0:17:02 | 0:17:06 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:17:06 | 0:17:09 | |
Never going to turn on Channel 4 on a Tuesday night | 0:17:09 | 0:17:13 | |
and see a guy like me. | 0:17:13 | 0:17:14 | |
'Tonight we meet the 14 stone man.' | 0:17:14 | 0:17:19 | |
That looks disgusting! | 0:17:20 | 0:17:22 | |
Did you watch that about that 14 stone man last night? Shocking. | 0:17:22 | 0:17:27 | |
Showed this guy who couldn't even do 20 minutes on the treadmill. | 0:17:27 | 0:17:31 | |
It showed you this guy having his dinner, he had a gammon steak | 0:17:31 | 0:17:34 | |
and oven chips and then he had five Jaffa cakes | 0:17:34 | 0:17:40 | |
and a Penguin. | 0:17:40 | 0:17:41 | |
14 stone! It's on again next week, the guy is shocking. | 0:17:44 | 0:17:48 | |
I'd never heard of a pizza crunch until two years ago | 0:17:48 | 0:17:52 | |
and I was in a chip shop in Glasgow Cross at one o'clock in the morning | 0:17:52 | 0:17:57 | |
and this woman who was pretty sozzled came in | 0:17:57 | 0:18:01 | |
and asked for a pizza crunch | 0:18:01 | 0:18:02 | |
and I didn't know what she was talking about | 0:18:02 | 0:18:05 | |
and I saw them dipping this thing in the batter and frying it | 0:18:05 | 0:18:09 | |
and out came a thing the size of a bin lid. | 0:18:09 | 0:18:11 | |
She starts tearing lumps off it. | 0:18:13 | 0:18:15 | |
They will sell them in quarters but... | 0:18:15 | 0:18:17 | |
No, she got the whole thing! | 0:18:17 | 0:18:19 | |
Was she a looker? | 0:18:19 | 0:18:21 | |
The pizza crunch looked better. | 0:18:21 | 0:18:23 | |
Less greasy. | 0:18:23 | 0:18:24 | |
So that's what we're going to make? | 0:18:24 | 0:18:27 | |
We're going to make a pizza crunch supper. | 0:18:27 | 0:18:29 | |
We're going to get the chips on first. | 0:18:29 | 0:18:32 | |
Chips are on. | 0:18:32 | 0:18:34 | |
And we're going to take a pizza | 0:18:34 | 0:18:37 | |
and just drop that in there | 0:18:37 | 0:18:41 | |
and just drop a wee scallop in here | 0:18:41 | 0:18:45 | |
and a wee Italian sausage or two, there we are. | 0:18:45 | 0:18:48 | |
-How fast is that? -Is that us? Literally fast food. | 0:18:48 | 0:18:52 | |
Just about, yeah. | 0:18:52 | 0:18:53 | |
We have a bit here... | 0:18:54 | 0:18:56 | |
OK. | 0:19:03 | 0:19:05 | |
It does look unbelievable, Guy. | 0:19:05 | 0:19:07 | |
Let's just finish it with a wee bit of lemon. | 0:19:07 | 0:19:11 | |
Get some fruit on there! | 0:19:11 | 0:19:13 | |
Because this is the posh one, and a wee bit of parsley. | 0:19:13 | 0:19:16 | |
You know what, look at the difference that has made now. | 0:19:16 | 0:19:20 | |
-Take this through? -I think you should before it gets cold. | 0:19:20 | 0:19:23 | |
Here we go, heart attack coming through. | 0:19:23 | 0:19:26 | |
-I could lose a tooth, you know that? -Ha-ha! -Pretty crunchy. | 0:19:26 | 0:19:31 | |
You'll always get something from the tooth fairy. | 0:19:31 | 0:19:35 | |
I don't know what to say but the grease, already! | 0:19:37 | 0:19:41 | |
That's lovely. Probably the best piece of crunch I've tried this week. | 0:19:43 | 0:19:46 | |
-I'm delighted to hear that. -It's my first piece of crunch in a while. | 0:19:46 | 0:19:50 | |
I've actually been eating quite healthy but if you're coming back, | 0:19:50 | 0:19:53 | |
you may as well do it in style. A welcome return. | 0:19:53 | 0:19:56 | |
Guy, you've been a pleasure to work with, for obvious reasons. | 0:19:56 | 0:20:01 | |
but thanks a lot for cooking it up. | 0:20:01 | 0:20:03 | |
I'm looking forward to the cameras going away | 0:20:03 | 0:20:07 | |
and I don't need to eat with decorum | 0:20:07 | 0:20:09 | |
and I can just get in about it like a gannet | 0:20:09 | 0:20:12 | |
Well done to Guy for managing to revolutionise | 0:20:21 | 0:20:23 | |
and de-stigmatize the pizza crunch. As I said, I'm not too bothered | 0:20:23 | 0:20:27 | |
with the fashion and fitness fads | 0:20:27 | 0:20:28 | |
but I know a guy who's now described as a bit of a style icon. | 0:20:28 | 0:20:32 | |
I met with my friend and fellow comedian, Jack Whitehall, | 0:20:32 | 0:20:36 | |
to talk about lifestyles and compare notes, man to man. | 0:20:36 | 0:20:41 | |
So how do you keep in shape, Jack? | 0:20:41 | 0:20:43 | |
No carbs after six. That's not true. | 0:20:43 | 0:20:47 | |
-It's impossible to ask to a man. -How do you keep fit? | 0:20:47 | 0:20:49 | |
Jack, tell me, how do you maintain your body? | 0:20:49 | 0:20:52 | |
The only way to make that gayer is going, "What's your secret?" | 0:20:52 | 0:20:56 | |
I remember I met a guy I went to school with in the canteen in the BBC | 0:20:56 | 0:21:00 | |
and he's an electrician but he did mixed martial arts, | 0:21:00 | 0:21:03 | |
cage fighting, stuff like that. | 0:21:03 | 0:21:05 | |
I said, "Do you want to go to the canteen for lunch?" | 0:21:05 | 0:21:08 | |
And he goes, "No, you cannae put diesel in a Ferrari engine." | 0:21:08 | 0:21:11 | |
Amazing! | 0:21:11 | 0:21:13 | |
What kind of sports did you play at school? Dressage and fencing? | 0:21:13 | 0:21:18 | |
I did not do dressage and fencing. | 0:21:18 | 0:21:20 | |
-Polo? -No, not polo. | 0:21:20 | 0:21:22 | |
I did, like, normal sports like fox hunting and stuff like that. | 0:21:22 | 0:21:25 | |
-Beagling. -Beagling! | 0:21:25 | 0:21:29 | |
Beagling is like fox hunting but without the horse. | 0:21:29 | 0:21:33 | |
Do you exercise? What's your exercise of choice? | 0:21:33 | 0:21:37 | |
Football? Do you play for a team? Just five-a-side? | 0:21:37 | 0:21:40 | |
That kind of guy. I play five-a-side | 0:21:40 | 0:21:42 | |
cos I'm the kind of guy who'll just go for the shower. | 0:21:42 | 0:21:45 | |
Everybody plays five-a-side with somebody. They don't just stay | 0:21:46 | 0:21:50 | |
in the goal the whole game, as soon as the game finishes they start | 0:21:50 | 0:21:54 | |
whipping people on the arse with a towel. | 0:21:54 | 0:21:58 | |
Where do you shop for clothes? You like tight stuff, don't you? | 0:21:58 | 0:22:01 | |
-I love my tight stuff! -Tight jeans. -Tight jeans, but I never used to | 0:22:01 | 0:22:04 | |
wear tight jeans, I always used to just wear tracksuits and stuff. | 0:22:04 | 0:22:08 | |
I hate buying clothes, I never really do it. | 0:22:08 | 0:22:11 | |
I send my sister or a girlfriend to go and do it for me | 0:22:11 | 0:22:13 | |
and always ask to get given clothes cos I'm not naturally very stylish. | 0:22:13 | 0:22:18 | |
What else, the trainers? I see, all right. | 0:22:18 | 0:22:20 | |
-Big shoes. -A bit US basketball court? -Yeah. | 0:22:20 | 0:22:23 | |
I always get the pointy ones that have loads of space at the end | 0:22:23 | 0:22:26 | |
so it makes you look like you've got bigger feet than you actually have. | 0:22:26 | 0:22:30 | |
Is that something people strive for, bigger feet? | 0:22:30 | 0:22:32 | |
Yeah, there's the phallic reference, I think, helps with women. | 0:22:32 | 0:22:36 | |
If a woman sees a man with really long pointy feet, | 0:22:36 | 0:22:39 | |
she suspects that his penis will be long and pointy. | 0:22:39 | 0:22:42 | |
-Is that true? -Yes, your shoe, for example, | 0:22:42 | 0:22:45 | |
they'd think your penis was sort of comfortable and... | 0:22:45 | 0:22:49 | |
-Size 10? -Yes, nice size but also very comfortable and easy going. | 0:22:49 | 0:22:53 | |
This is the sort of thing you can detect just by looking at these? | 0:22:53 | 0:22:57 | |
Right, I look around the room, all the people, I can tell, | 0:22:57 | 0:23:00 | |
-What about the cameraman? -Durable, a durable penis. | 0:23:00 | 0:23:03 | |
It's going to last a long time, | 0:23:03 | 0:23:05 | |
no matter what you do with it. Good in rough terrain as well. | 0:23:05 | 0:23:08 | |
How long's it take you to get ready in the morning? | 0:23:08 | 0:23:11 | |
Not that long. I don't wear deodorant! | 0:23:11 | 0:23:14 | |
You don't? | 0:23:14 | 0:23:15 | |
-No, not really. -Why? | 0:23:15 | 0:23:17 | |
It's a big, it's a big call, you don't wear deodorant? | 0:23:17 | 0:23:20 | |
Not out of choice but I'm not like one of those people | 0:23:20 | 0:23:23 | |
who's spraying and waxing and doing all those sort of... | 0:23:23 | 0:23:26 | |
You're not one of these people who just goes...that's how long it takes? | 0:23:26 | 0:23:30 | |
-Maybe, just a little. -So you wear deodorant? | 0:23:30 | 0:23:33 | |
I was watching a documentary about animal testing, | 0:23:33 | 0:23:36 | |
about toiletries and cosmetic products that get tested on animals | 0:23:36 | 0:23:40 | |
and it was showing you these horror stories about animals getting | 0:23:40 | 0:23:44 | |
badly burnt and disfigured. It was pretty distressing shit, right? | 0:23:44 | 0:23:48 | |
But I'm quite a positive guy, I'm watching this thinking, | 0:23:48 | 0:23:52 | |
what about the happy stories about cosmetic tests. | 0:23:52 | 0:23:56 | |
What about the tests that were successful? | 0:23:56 | 0:23:59 | |
The toiletries and beauty products that made it to the market. | 0:23:59 | 0:24:03 | |
I want to turn on the TV and see the two chimpanzees | 0:24:03 | 0:24:06 | |
in a laboratory cage saying, "You're smelling good, Chico!" | 0:24:06 | 0:24:10 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:24:10 | 0:24:12 | |
Is that Lynx Africa? | 0:24:17 | 0:24:20 | |
Bom, bom, chica, wow-wow! | 0:24:22 | 0:24:23 | |
Jack, cheers for giving us an insight into your lifestyle fashion choices and exercise. | 0:24:26 | 0:24:31 | |
Thanks, if you every want to go clothes shopping, let me know. | 0:24:31 | 0:24:34 | |
-Is it your sister that goes? -We can go with her. -All right. | 0:24:34 | 0:24:38 | |
If I want to go clothes shopping, I'll phone your sister. | 0:24:38 | 0:24:41 | |
-Does that sound offensive? -It did. | 0:24:41 | 0:24:43 | |
-Don't phone her, just call me. -I'll get hold of her. | 0:24:43 | 0:24:46 | |
-I'll go to your sister via you. -Yeah. Just stay away from her. | 0:24:46 | 0:24:49 | |
Stay away from your sister, right? | 0:24:49 | 0:24:51 | |
-Anyway, cheers for your time, Jack. -Thanks. | 0:24:51 | 0:24:54 | |
After the manly get together and shop and talk with Jack, | 0:25:02 | 0:25:05 | |
it was time to see if my first venture into the world | 0:25:05 | 0:25:09 | |
of personal tailoring would be a success or a failure. | 0:25:09 | 0:25:13 | |
-Rabii, I'm back. -How are you doing? | 0:25:14 | 0:25:18 | |
-Good, what's been happening? You're burning the jeans? -I am, basically. | 0:25:18 | 0:25:23 | |
When did you...what happened to you, man? Look at your appearance. | 0:25:23 | 0:25:28 | |
-You look... -French? For Movember. | 0:25:28 | 0:25:31 | |
You've been advertising for Dolmio? | 0:25:31 | 0:25:33 | |
-Can I try them on, have you got a changing room? -Aye. | 0:25:33 | 0:25:36 | |
-Is it a genuine changing room? -No. It's actually a toilet. | 0:25:36 | 0:25:39 | |
The facilities, Rabii, how much am I paying for these again? | 0:25:39 | 0:25:43 | |
-Everybody else pays £300, I pay, what, £500? -£500. -Mates rates. -Aye. | 0:25:43 | 0:25:48 | |
Good man. All right. I'll try them on. | 0:25:48 | 0:25:52 | |
Right, ready to see me, Rabii? | 0:25:52 | 0:25:54 | |
Aye. You've impressed me. | 0:25:54 | 0:25:57 | |
A bit of a struggle on the way up. | 0:25:57 | 0:25:59 | |
-Like here. -Uh-huh. | 0:25:59 | 0:26:01 | |
-But I think that's my own problem. -Once they're on, what do you think? | 0:26:01 | 0:26:05 | |
-You measured me a while ago. -Good? -Oh, yes. | 0:26:05 | 0:26:09 | |
They need to survive my wee routine, though. | 0:26:09 | 0:26:11 | |
Just your standard squats, stuff like that. | 0:26:11 | 0:26:14 | |
That's a big test cos I've seen men in a pair of jeans burst open | 0:26:14 | 0:26:19 | |
at that test and many embarrassing conversations with sales assistants. | 0:26:19 | 0:26:24 | |
Looking good. | 0:26:24 | 0:26:26 | |
Are you happy with your K.Dog? | 0:26:26 | 0:26:28 | |
It's the star attraction, look at that. How do I wash them? | 0:26:28 | 0:26:32 | |
You need to actually wear them for about a month or so | 0:26:32 | 0:26:34 | |
before you wash them. | 0:26:34 | 0:26:36 | |
A month? Aye. A month? Don't wash for a month? | 0:26:36 | 0:26:39 | |
Aye, some jeans you're not supposed to wash them for six months. | 0:26:39 | 0:26:43 | |
What's the best way to wash them? | 0:26:43 | 0:26:45 | |
In the washing machine, cold, by themselves. | 0:26:45 | 0:26:48 | |
-In a month's time? -Yeah. | 0:26:48 | 0:26:50 | |
Unless you soil yourself or... | 0:26:50 | 0:26:53 | |
I've got a pretty weak bladder. | 0:26:53 | 0:26:56 | |
Aye, soon as you piss yourself, then, get them washed. | 0:26:56 | 0:26:59 | |
So don't wash for a month, subject to pissing my pants? | 0:26:59 | 0:27:02 | |
Aye, basically. | 0:27:02 | 0:27:04 | |
If the washing instructions are anything to go by, | 0:27:09 | 0:27:12 | |
then I've not been missing much in the excusive world of high fashion. | 0:27:12 | 0:27:18 | |
And looking at lifestyle, I've traded blows with a world champ | 0:27:18 | 0:27:22 | |
but I still struggle with fitness. | 0:27:22 | 0:27:24 | |
-The new overweight champion! -Well done, mate. | 0:27:24 | 0:27:27 | |
I've compared grooming and fashion tips with a good buddy of mine. | 0:27:27 | 0:27:31 | |
What's your secret? | 0:27:31 | 0:27:33 | |
And no matter how much I try to resist, | 0:27:34 | 0:27:37 | |
I'm helpless to the lure of a gourmet pizza fried in batter. | 0:27:37 | 0:27:41 | |
Probably the best pizza crunch I've tried this week. | 0:27:41 | 0:27:44 | |
