0:15:02 > 0:15:05- Yes.- So we weren't on YouTube for too long, but we still upload

0:15:08 > 0:15:10And you are a bit of a... Thinking about The Office,
0:15:10 > 0:15:13you are a bit of a sort of, you know...

0:15:25 > 0:15:28And my character, Chabuddy G, is in the vein of all of those greats.
0:15:28 > 0:15:30So I'm kind of paying homage to that.

0:18:30 > 0:18:35..you took a great suffragette as your subject.

0:18:39 > 0:18:42- we'd never heard.- I hadn't even, I came across her by accident.
0:18:42 > 0:18:46I saw a picture in a magazine, of a woman protesting outside
0:18:46 > 0:18:49Hampton Court, and something just kicked in, I thought -
0:18:49 > 0:18:52"She's Indian, she looks a bit like one of my aunties."
0:18:52 > 0:18:54So I started to sort of dig in,
0:18:54 > 0:18:57and it came out her name was Sophia Duleep Singh,
0:18:57 > 0:19:00she was an Indian princess, she lived at Hampton Court,
0:19:00 > 0:19:02she was Queen Victoria's goddaughter, and she was
0:19:02 > 0:19:05a feisty old broad who battled with policemen on the streets.
0:19:05 > 0:19:06So I fell in love.
0:19:06 > 0:19:09But when we talk about the suffragettes and what
0:19:09 > 0:19:13they achieved, it wasn't as if every woman was allowed to vote, was it?
0:19:13 > 0:19:16- I mean, A, you had to be 30...- Yes. - ..B, you had to be a householder.
0:19:16 > 0:19:20This was like pulling a tooth from the British establishment.
0:19:20 > 0:19:22They thought that, you know, ovaries made us all
0:19:22 > 0:19:25a bit too hysterical to make decisions.
0:19:25 > 0:19:27But there's also this sort of idea at the time
0:19:27 > 0:19:30which was very prevalent, that if you give women the vote,
0:19:30 > 0:19:32then the colonies will lose respect for you
0:19:32 > 0:19:34cos you're listening to your women.
0:19:34 > 0:19:36And so there were all sorts of these barmy arguments
0:19:36 > 0:19:38which stopped men -
0:19:38 > 0:19:42very powerful men, and otherwise people like Asquith who were quite forward-thinking -
0:19:42 > 0:19:44from considering women worthy.
0:19:44 > 0:19:47Extraordinary, isn't it, when you think about it now? Anyway -
