not letting them know I was OK, | 0:11:36 | 0:11:38 | |
not having a clue what was going on on the outside world. | 0:11:38 | 0:11:40 | |
You just don't know what could have happened, | 0:11:40 | 0:11:42 | |
so that was always at the back of my mind. | 0:11:42 | 0:11:44 | |

The only thing is I'm a direct descendent | 0:12:15 | 0:12:16 | |
of Cardinal Thomas Wolsey, who was her mortal enemy. | 0:12:16 | 0:12:19 | |
So, I feel a little bit bad about that one. | 0:12:19 | 0:12:20 | |
I didn't spot the similarities. | 0:12:20 | 0:12:22 | |
Oh, yes. you didn't see it. The bald head, the red cape. | 0:12:22 | 0:12:24 | |
Well, now you mention it, yep. | 0:12:24 | 0:12:27 | |

And then I answered an advert and it just so happened that it was for him. | 0:15:58 | 0:16:02 | |
So, I was like, "Wow!", you know. | 0:16:02 | 0:16:04 | |

It's a tribute to the BBC that the programme | 0:19:58 | 0:20:01 | |

And, finally, Rob again, please. | 0:23:16 | 0:23:19 | |
I'm trying to find how to put this, but, in a sense, | 0:23:23 | 0:23:25 | |
you are your own backing band, | 0:23:25 | 0:23:27 | |
because you're a comedian, | 0:23:27 | 0:23:29 | |
you do funny things, and you support yourself with music? | 0:23:29 | 0:23:32 | |
Yeah, I'm kind of a one-man band, but that phrase conjures up | 0:23:32 | 0:23:36 | |
a slightly, you know, more... | 0:23:36 | 0:23:39 | |
street-level performer than I am. | 0:23:39 | 0:23:41 | |
21st century one-man band. | 0:23:41 | 0:23:43 | |
There's nothing between my knees. | 0:23:43 | 0:23:45 | |
You don't go, "Bang, bang!" with those things like that. | 0:23:45 | 0:23:47 | |
No, no... Exactly, you've got it. | 0:23:47 | 0:23:49 | |
How many instruments can you play? | 0:23:49 | 0:23:51 | |
Well, I can play... Anything in a band, I'll always have a go at. | 0:23:51 | 0:23:54 | |
So, guitar and drums properly, | 0:23:54 | 0:23:55 | |
keyboards and bass passably. And I sing. | 0:23:55 | 0:23:58 | |
So, why didn't you become a musician instead of a comedian? | 0:23:58 | 0:24:01 | |
Well, I didn't realise I'd wanted to be a musician. | 0:24:01 | 0:24:03 | |
I became a comedian, and then the musician thing kind of bubbled up, | 0:24:03 | 0:24:06 | |
like a kind of Frankenstein's monster. | 0:24:06 | 0:24:08 | |
But, then, that leads me back to playing proper songs, | 0:24:08 | 0:24:11 | |
and I find them very dull - | 0:24:11 | 0:24:12 | |
you want to stop in the middle and do a joke. | 0:24:12 | 0:24:14 | |
Which do you prefer? | 0:24:14 | 0:24:15 | |
Are you happier when you're singing and playing | 0:24:15 | 0:24:17 | |
or when you're telling jokes? | 0:24:17 | 0:24:19 | |
I'd rather... I like... What I do is very bespoke, | 0:24:19 | 0:24:22 | |
so I think I'm happiest doing that. | 0:24:22 | 0:24:24 | |
I designed it for myself so that I get to be a comedian, | 0:24:24 | 0:24:28 | |
do the music and kind of mock the whole business as I go along. | 0:24:28 | 0:24:31 | |
You sound as if you enjoy it. | 0:24:31 | 0:24:32 | |
Yeah, yeah. I look as if I enjoy it. | 0:24:32 | 0:24:34 | |
There's this whole thing about not laughing at your own jokes. | 0:24:34 | 0:24:37 | |
I always break that rule, so I apologise. | 0:24:37 | 0:24:40 | |
Rob, you've got 12 points, which is a whopper. | 0:24:40 | 0:24:42 | |
