:00:07. > :00:12.On the show tonight: We've got the Incredible Hulk. I'm looking
:00:12. > :00:17.forward to meeting him. I hope nothing annoys me because if I
:00:17. > :00:27.were... Stop taking pictures! I'm getting annoyed now. I'm getting
:00:27. > :00:40.
:00:40. > :00:50.angry, very, very angry! Arrrgh! APPLAUSE
:00:50. > :00:51.
:00:51. > :00:57.Good evening everybody! Hello. Welcome. Calm myself. I'm not
:00:57. > :01:02.really calm, I'm excited. We have a blockbuster line up tonight. He is
:01:02. > :01:07.the Incredible Hulk in the Avengers Assemble film, Mark Ruffalo is here.
:01:07. > :01:14.The hottest rapper on the planet, Dannii Minogue is on the show.
:01:14. > :01:21.Cheer -- Nicki Minage is on the show.
:01:21. > :01:29.Chief superhero John Bishop is here. Plus, we've got the wonderful Rufus
:01:29. > :01:35.Wainwright ladies and gentleman. Oh, I tell you! I'm looking forward
:01:35. > :01:39.to asking Mark about his new movie, Avengers Assemble. Yes. Mark stars
:01:39. > :01:43.as the Incredible Hulk, when he gets upset he doubles in size and
:01:43. > :01:46.then shrinks again, you know something like Oprah Winfrey, but
:01:47. > :01:50.green. LAUGHTER
:01:51. > :02:00.Some people say the Hulk was created in a lab. I say no. He's
:02:00. > :02:06.the love child of these two: "Pregnant I have made you."
:02:06. > :02:11.It's not just the Hulk. There are others too, like Thor. There he is.
:02:11. > :02:15.I am Thor, where are you Thor, did you hit your thumb with the hammer?
:02:15. > :02:20.There's Captain America. I tell you, not only a superhero but according
:02:20. > :02:26.to that star on his chest, employee of the month at McDonald's.
:02:26. > :02:31.And I'm really thrilled that one of the world's biggest music stars
:02:31. > :02:38.Nicki Minaj is here. CHEERING
:02:38. > :02:41.All right. All right. People at home, before you ring in to
:02:41. > :02:47.complain, that isn't real leopard skin, all right? Though in fairness,
:02:47. > :02:54.it is a real badger on her head. It's alive, just hanging on for
:02:54. > :02:57.dear life. Nicki is such a trendsetter, she really is. So very
:02:57. > :03:07.generous. When she finished with that hair style, she donate today
:03:07. > :03:07.
:03:07. > :03:11.to some children. She did. So Nicki Minaj and the Hulk,
:03:11. > :03:15.strangest showbiz couple since Simon Cowell and Dannii Minogue. I
:03:15. > :03:18.know! It's rumoured that Simon Cowell and Dannii Minogue had an
:03:18. > :03:28.affair. Apparently very passionate. They laughed together. They cried
:03:28. > :03:29.
:03:29. > :03:34.together. Mainly, they looked vaguely surprised together.
:03:34. > :03:37.Cowell also said he lusted after Cheryl Cole. We've got a photo of
:03:37. > :03:45.the exact moment he propositioned her.
:03:45. > :03:55.Let's get some guests on. Later we have Rufus Wainwright. But first,
:03:55. > :03:56.
:03:56. > :03:59.he's a model of a comic, it's John APPLAUSE
:03:59. > :04:09.She's a wonder of a woman, Nicki Minaj.
:04:09. > :04:22.
:04:22. > :04:32.And he's a mean, green fighting machine, it's the Hulk himself,
:04:32. > :04:39.
:04:39. > :04:48.Mark Ruffalo. CHEERING AND APPLAUSE Calm everyone.
:04:48. > :04:53.Calm. All right. OK. Welcome to everyone on my couch. One person on
:04:53. > :04:57.the couch has made more of an effort than the others, that's all
:04:57. > :05:06.I'm saying. You look lovely Nicki Minaj. You do. Dow go shopping? Dow
:05:06. > :05:10.go into a shop and buy what you're wearing? No. Ann Summers. I don't
:05:11. > :05:14.go shopping. Never? No, they bring me stuff for me to choose from a
:05:14. > :05:20.lot of times. It's easier like that. You look stylish as well. Why,
:05:20. > :05:27.thank you. Don't even think about it. I made
:05:27. > :05:33.an effort. I thought I'm putting on a floury shirt. I'm now confident
:05:33. > :05:38.in me sexuality that I can put on a flowery shirt. I thought I'll make
:05:38. > :05:48.an effort next to a style icon. Nicki said to me "You look
:05:48. > :05:49.
:05:49. > :05:55.wonderful". She went sorry, "Who are you?" Now, Mark, very, very
:05:55. > :06:01.exciting, because Avengers Assemble, it's called Avengers Assemble here
:06:01. > :06:07.because we had the Avengers. But this is nothing to do with that.
:06:07. > :06:11.this is a whole another Avengers. This is all the marvel superheroes
:06:12. > :06:16.put together. Frbgts the mother of comic book heroes. It's you, iron
:06:16. > :06:22.man, Captain America, Thor, the black widow, it's phenomenal.
:06:22. > :06:27.You're the first Incredible Hulk who is motion capture. I'm the
:06:27. > :06:35.first actor to play both Banner and the Hulk.
:06:35. > :06:39.APPLAUSE We've got a clip and it's towards
:06:39. > :06:43.the beginning of the movie when you are Dr Banner. It's, they're coming
:06:43. > :06:47.to find you, but they know what happens when you get angry. They
:06:47. > :06:54.don't want to make me angry. Nobody wants to make you angry. It's you
:06:54. > :06:59.and scarlet Johansson. What does he want me to do, swallow it? He wants
:06:59. > :07:03.you to find it. It's been taken. It emitts a gamma signature that's too
:07:03. > :07:09.weak to trace. There's no-one that knows gamma radiation like you do.
:07:09. > :07:15.If there was, that's where I'd be. So Fury isn't after the monster?
:07:15. > :07:22.Not that he's told me. And he tells you everything? Talk to Fury. He
:07:22. > :07:28.needs you. He needs me in a cage. No-one... Stop lying to me.
:07:28. > :07:38.sorry, that was mean. I just wanted to see what you'd do.
:07:38. > :07:38.
:07:38. > :07:41.APPLAUSE And I don't mean, I mean this as a
:07:41. > :07:45.compliment, but you seem like unusual casting for this because
:07:45. > :07:49.you are, it seems to me, in the movies I've seen, you always played
:07:49. > :07:55.quite laid back people, you seem like quite a laid back man. Is that
:07:55. > :08:02.why they cast you? I think they wanted it to be as far from angry
:08:02. > :08:07.as they could possibly get without the person actually ak sleep. --
:08:07. > :08:10.actually being asleep. And I fit the bill. It's a weird superpower
:08:10. > :08:16.anger. When you think about the times that you actually get angry,
:08:17. > :08:21.like internet banking or something. Not great things. Tweets, e-mails,
:08:21. > :08:26.when you send that stuff off, it usually doesn't go over very well.
:08:26. > :08:33.Dow get angry? Are you kidding me? I have a saying, if you're not
:08:33. > :08:36.yelling at your kids, you're not spending enough time with me.
:08:37. > :08:42.John, you again seem really laid back, are you quick to anger?
:08:42. > :08:46.don't think I am, but then occasions happen, like we went
:08:46. > :08:50.skiing recently, which is an odd thing to do if you're from
:08:50. > :08:57.Liverpool, because there wasn't a lot of skiing lessons in our class,
:08:57. > :09:01.you know. Not many people went skiing. We went to the Alps, and
:09:01. > :09:05.it's quite a middle class thing to do. I come down the hill skiing,
:09:05. > :09:09.which is not a great sight to see, to be honest. I came down, and my
:09:09. > :09:12.oldest son was at the bottom of the hill. He'd obviously, there had
:09:12. > :09:16.been something that had happened between him and another man who was
:09:16. > :09:23.skiing. The other man was getting out of his skis as if to punch my
:09:23. > :09:30.son. So I come down the hill, stop on me skis and start threatening
:09:31. > :09:36.the man and trying to run after him wearing skis. Have you ever tried
:09:36. > :09:39.to run hard when you've got the feet of a clown. So there's a point
:09:39. > :09:48.where you can be angry and gate way with it and there's a point where
:09:48. > :09:51.you just look like a dork. Nicki, are you angry very often? No.
:09:51. > :10:01.hesitate to ask, I don't want to you turn green or anything. Did
:10:01. > :10:01.
:10:01. > :10:06.Twitter make you angry recently? No! A voice in my head told me to
:10:06. > :10:12.delete my Twitter and that's what I did. Are you back on yet? No.
:10:12. > :10:17.many followers did you have? million. That's a country!
:10:17. > :10:23.LAUGHTER You could have been a dictator.
:10:23. > :10:28.Thank you. Who are they following now? I don't know. I hope they'll
:10:28. > :10:36.wait for me. CHEERING
:10:36. > :10:41.I know they will. Did you ever reply to anyone? I replied to
:10:41. > :10:45.people all the time. I'm known for that. I don't mean just now. I mean
:10:45. > :10:50.on Twitter, because if you have got 11 million, it's impossible. No, I
:10:50. > :10:55.do and I get to know them by name and I get a really personal bond
:10:55. > :10:58.with them, not all 11 million. But you know, here and there. I
:10:58. > :11:04.responded to at least ten people a day I would say. OK that's not that
:11:04. > :11:12.many, is it? LAUGHTER
:11:12. > :11:17.That leaves quite a lot of time for Nicki. Sorry. Very exciting because
:11:17. > :11:19.when you're in a big movie like Avengers Assemble, of course, it
:11:19. > :11:24.comes with the toys. There's actually your toy is pretty good.
:11:25. > :11:34.Have you seen it yet? Yeah. Because it's clever, because it's motion
:11:34. > :11:38.capture, it is sort of your face. OK, get the still from the movie.
:11:38. > :11:48.That is kind of your face in a weird not very flattering way. I
:11:48. > :11:52.
:11:52. > :11:59.HE ROARS And you can tickle you.
:11:59. > :12:06.You can do that. Sort of run out now.
:12:06. > :12:10.Oh, all right, sorry. He won't stop now. It goes for half
:12:10. > :12:13.an hour. He's still growling down there. He is. Obviously, you know,
:12:13. > :12:18.it's great here you are in a big, the movie, this is going to be the
:12:18. > :12:24.movie of the year, isn't it? Some people are saying that, yeah. It's
:12:24. > :12:32.tracking to be the biggest movie ever made. He's not making that up.
:12:32. > :12:36.It really is. APPLAUSE
:12:36. > :12:39.I didn't have anything to do with that. You do. Because the Hulk
:12:39. > :12:44.steals the movie. You have the funniest bits, the best bits. It's
:12:44. > :12:48.great. Thank you. What's amazing, and it should give everyone hope is
:12:48. > :12:53.that it took like, you were not an overnight sensation. It did take
:12:53. > :12:57.you a long, like people would have given up is what I'm saying. I'm a
:12:57. > :13:05.30 year overnight sensation. many auditions did you do before
:13:05. > :13:09.you got a job? It's been myth oljiezed now but it started with
:13:09. > :13:11.600. Most smart people quit when it take that's long. What was giving
:13:11. > :13:15.you hope? I couldn't do anything else.
:13:15. > :13:20.LAUGHTER But you've done a lot of theatre
:13:20. > :13:24.over the years. That's right. Sometimes, incredibly convincing
:13:24. > :13:28.performances, didn't you like... Sometimes more than others. Didn't
:13:28. > :13:33.you cross a line, was it your fault that you crossed the line or did
:13:33. > :13:41.somebody set you up? Oh, you're talking about that! Yes. There was
:13:41. > :13:48.a play that I did that I had to, I smoked a joint in the first scene.
:13:48. > :13:52.And of course, there was a very naughty young actor I was in the
:13:52. > :14:02.play with, who on the opening night with all the critics... The opening
:14:02. > :14:06.night! He slipped a real joint onto the prop table. And I am out there
:14:06. > :14:10.and I'm just, now when you're acting you overdo everything, so
:14:10. > :14:20.when you're out at a party, you take two puffs and you say OK
:14:20. > :14:30.
:14:30. > :14:40.that's enough, I'm so stoned. But I LAUGHTER
:14:40. > :14:49.
:14:49. > :14:59.Between us, we smoked a giant blunt on stage. I am like, I am in it
:14:59. > :15:00.
:15:00. > :15:07.tonight, I am feeling it! I am on Why is that do standing backstage
:15:07. > :15:17.laughing at me?! And the kid to put the joint on the prop table was
:15:17. > :15:18.
:15:18. > :15:25.standing there... And I just went, oh sheet! And the girl that I was
:15:25. > :15:32.passing it to have never smoked party now live. Oh, my God! After
:15:32. > :15:42.that point, I had smoked a lot of heart, and I know you haven't.
:15:42. > :15:49.
:15:49. > :15:53.don't ever do drugs, OK? Back to your scheduled programme!
:15:54. > :16:03.It was the worst thing I ever did, don't do it! But at the end of the
:16:03. > :16:07.play, I got the best reviews of my entire career. But I am not...
:16:07. > :16:16.It was wrong, I would never do it again, it was a nightmare
:16:16. > :16:21.experience. Your arm must better of listening to Nicki than me.
:16:21. > :16:26.seems you have a reputation for being very nice online. You must
:16:26. > :16:33.know markruffalo.net. I have heard about it. You go there every day!
:16:33. > :16:37.Only when I am feeling bad. The Ugo there to Shears are up? Every day!
:16:37. > :16:43.I have never been, honestly. Everyone keeps going, I have met
:16:43. > :16:50.him, he is so nice, but we did discover one disgruntled fan, OK?
:16:50. > :16:57.Don't worry, you did nothing to him. His name is Jared. And his sister
:16:57. > :17:04.caught him from an airport and said, Mark Ruffalo is on the phone. Would
:17:04. > :17:08.you talk to him? He felt like he blew it. What does he say? I am
:17:08. > :17:12.sure I came off as some regular fan, vomiting flattery all over him, so
:17:12. > :17:19.if I could have scripted our conversation... It wasn't like that,
:17:19. > :17:28.I completely remember. His sister Jodi handed me the phone. Jodie is
:17:28. > :17:34.the sister! Yes! I had eight fans... 11 million! It is easy to remember
:17:34. > :17:41.them more. Poor Jarrett was so upset about this phone call, which
:17:41. > :17:45.was so nice of you to do, so he has scripted how it should have gone.
:17:45. > :17:49.If you wouldn't mind playing Mark Ruffalo, I have printed it out,
:17:49. > :17:57.this is the phone call. She has handed the phone to Mark Ruffalo,
:17:57. > :18:04.Jarrett is somewhere, I am him. Hey, man, I really enjoy your work.
:18:04. > :18:08.Thanks! Seriously, ever since I saw you in You Can Count On Me, I
:18:08. > :18:14.thought, this is a guy who can do basically anything. That is the
:18:14. > :18:19.nicest thing that anyone has ever said to me. Well, you are a
:18:19. > :18:25.phenomenal actor, 13 going on 30, Collateral, even in the smallest of
:18:25. > :18:34.roles, you brought an originality and a weight to them. It would not
:18:34. > :18:44.have existed otherwise. You really get me like no one has ever got me.
:18:44. > :18:45.
:18:45. > :18:53.Aye, Mark, I am just a fan. If you were gay, I would make out with you.
:18:53. > :19:00.Calmore! And then he has scripted in an awkward pause. Jared? Are you
:19:00. > :19:05.there? I had better run! Are you sure? And I have got some things to
:19:05. > :19:10.do. Make sure you tell Jodie to thank me, because if I hadn't, she
:19:10. > :19:17.wouldn't know who you are. Good grief! We wouldn't even be having
:19:17. > :19:27.this fantastic conversation! Perish the thought! Thank you, Jared! I
:19:27. > :19:29.
:19:30. > :19:35.love you! No, thank you, Mark Ruffalo! Very good, now... Nicki
:19:35. > :19:39.Minaj, congratulations! We have heard about will follow us,
:19:39. > :19:49.we have heard the screams, but more importantly you are officially the
:19:49. > :19:53.

:19:58. > :20:01.new album, Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded. It is number one
:20:01. > :20:08.everywhere, Number One Here, number one in the States, internationally.
:20:08. > :20:15.Japan, Canada, US, UK. That will do, that is all right! Earlier in the
:20:15. > :20:19.year, we saw you at the Super Bowl with Madonna. It was the most
:20:19. > :20:29.watched television programme in America ever. Yeah. Isn't that
:20:29. > :20:31.
:20:31. > :20:36.Did she textual or send flowers When You Not To off number one?
:20:36. > :20:46.she said nice things, she e-mailed me. She said some nice things.
:20:46. > :20:52.
:20:52. > :21:00.well done, whatever. I hope you are When Madonna was on here, you were
:21:00. > :21:05.all over her! I was, I was like Very exciting, because you've got
:21:05. > :21:11.to make out with her. You cannot really call that making out, I mean
:21:11. > :21:18.she kissed me... UK tour. I did not kiss her. You actually have the
:21:18. > :21:22.picture? Our I have got it on my phone here. So you are on top of
:21:22. > :21:26.the world, but how do you become Nicki Minaj? How young were you
:21:26. > :21:31.when you discovered you could do the rhymes and the rats? I do not
:21:31. > :21:36.ever remember that stuff. I wanted to be an actress first, and then I
:21:36. > :21:40.went to school for acting, and I always loved music, because my mom
:21:40. > :21:46.would sing all the time, but then I thought it was boring, so I started
:21:46. > :21:55.rapping. I have been doing it for such a long time. I put out three
:21:55. > :22:01.mix tapes, and then I was signed and made an album. Your band has
:22:01. > :22:06.left the country. So you're not performing for us tonight. Get it
:22:06. > :22:16.out of the system! But we do have a litter of your video for the latest
:22:16. > :22:16.
:22:16. > :23:05.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 49 seconds
:23:05. > :23:11.single. -- clip. Let's take a look That was... The best thing about
:23:11. > :23:21.that is that Nicki was giving it all of that stuff! Thank you for
:23:21. > :23:22.
:23:22. > :23:28.singing along, you are amazing, I love you! I can really relate to
:23:28. > :23:34.that, because last summer I had bees in my back bedroom. A kind of
:23:34. > :23:38.a trap! They were piled high, seriously. I needed a trap, that is
:23:38. > :23:45.what I needed. There is a lot of discussion of the internet about
:23:45. > :23:53.what the sole means. Can you be definitive? What should I say? Let
:23:53. > :24:01.me think. Does it mean for his, or is it buzzing bees? No OBE, hit it
:24:01. > :24:06.is just the same, I am always, it is a slang way of saying, I be such
:24:07. > :24:11.and such. It is really like, I am always in the trap, now the trap,
:24:11. > :24:21.ladies and gentlemen, relates to anywhere that you get your money.
:24:21. > :24:34.
:24:34. > :24:43.Bo... So you are in the trap right When did you last get called
:24:43. > :24:51.Playboy?! I am very down with this, because I have been reading my
:24:51. > :24:58.Ninctionary. I have, yeah. Let's find it, it is here. It is all you
:24:58. > :25:06.won here, strawberry shortcake. Strawberry shortcake, now an,
:25:06. > :25:16.definition: They broke bitch, one who loses sight of their goals by
:25:16. > :25:18.
:25:18. > :25:25.focusing on negativity. The year, you strawberry shortcake! Do you
:25:25. > :25:35.want to test me? Bouquet, who is Balloon boy? OK, Evelyn Boy, is
:25:35. > :25:35.
:25:35. > :25:42.this a sexual thing? No! OK, it is a ken with no stacks. No, remember
:25:42. > :25:50.in America, the boy that pretended to be in the balloon, his parents
:25:50. > :26:00.said he was in a balloon. I did a rap, you are like balloon boys.
:26:00. > :26:03.
:26:03. > :26:08.That little boy, I am passionate about children, and when I saw him,
:26:08. > :26:15.he looked so precious, I said, I am going to make in the honorary
:26:15. > :26:25.Oracle, and he became like, you know, I don't know, some kind of
:26:25. > :26:25.
:26:25. > :26:32.got the force. Why are you guys laughing?! Whatever! A few
:26:32. > :26:41.strawberry shortcakes over there, I would say. They had better tumble-
:26:41. > :26:50.drier. We have got the definition... Word, tumble-drier, third,
:26:50. > :26:58.definition: Used when speaking to wash up pictures. Tumble dry, bitch,
:26:58. > :27:04.tumble dry! And when you leave here tonight, when you are in the car
:27:04. > :27:12.going home, will you describe me as a waffle house? No, I would never
:27:12. > :27:22.say that. Because that is... Waffle house, adjective, definition: A
:27:22. > :27:26.clearly misguided old wrinkle. a waffle house! Now, listen, I am
:27:26. > :27:36.thrilled John Bishop is here, because I just wanted to say, well
:27:36. > :27:37.
:27:38. > :27:47.done, congratulations. Yes! I do not know if Nicki and Mark know
:27:47. > :27:51.this, but John is raising, it has gone over �4 million and counting.
:27:51. > :28:01.I know it is embarrassing, but it is the highest amount ever raised
:28:01. > :28:01.
:28:01. > :28:08.for charity by a single person in a For anyone who has been living
:28:08. > :28:13.under a rock, Nicki and Mark, what did you do? There is an
:28:13. > :28:17.organisation here called Sport Relief, and so I did... It raises
:28:17. > :28:22.money for the developing world and people in the UK, so they came up
:28:22. > :28:26.with this challenge, which was to ride a bicycle from Paris to Calais,
:28:26. > :28:32.which is 185 miles, and then the next day wrote the English Channel,
:28:32. > :28:42.and then the next day run the first of three consecutive marathons,
:28:42. > :28:42.
:28:42. > :28:47.three marathons in three days, finishing it up. Three days? This
:28:47. > :28:52.will give you an idea of how hard it was. We have got a clip, and
:28:52. > :29:02.this is... Or he has done at this stage, I say or he has done, he has
:29:02. > :29:25.
:29:25. > :29:30.done the bike ride. So this is a JB, how are you feeling?
:29:30. > :29:38.hallucinating. I'm not sure prized. I'm talking to a dolphin.
:29:38. > :29:43.APPLAUSE You'd only had an hour's sleep.
:29:43. > :29:48.Yeah the bike ride took longer than we expected. I got into Calais at
:29:48. > :29:53.4am. Then hi to have an ice bath and everything. I went to sleep at
:29:53. > :29:58.5am and got up at 6am. When we had to leave when the tide was right.
:29:58. > :30:03.Was it miserable in France, people weren't cheering you on? It was
:30:03. > :30:09.miserable because it was France. ( There should be a sponsored visit
:30:09. > :30:15.France. There was one point, I left Paris and there was one point where
:30:15. > :30:19.I was trying to do this thing, where your balance on the bike, you
:30:19. > :30:23.reach a traffic light and I fell off because I lost my balance and I
:30:23. > :30:28.couldn't get my feed out of the pedals. There were all these French
:30:28. > :30:35.people at a bus stop, I fell off in front of them and they just went...
:30:35. > :30:40.Nothing, just nothing! Not "Are you OK?" Nothing. They couldn't give a
:30:40. > :30:44.toss. It was a bit miserable. I got some mates who met me halfway and
:30:44. > :30:48.give me a lift. Riding through the night was horrible as well.
:30:48. > :30:51.Watching the programme, you really suffered. I mean those, the
:30:52. > :30:57.marathons, there must have been moments, lots of moments when you
:30:57. > :31:01.thought "I really should stop this." Yeah, but there's a camera
:31:01. > :31:04.crew. So you just think if I stop this I'll look like a right
:31:04. > :31:09.dickhead. Everyone knows I've stopped so there's a little bit of
:31:09. > :31:11.that. And also, you get carried along. I mean, there's a big
:31:12. > :31:15.momentum that's built up with something like this. When you got
:31:15. > :31:18.to the UK, I've got to be honest with you, it's probably the most
:31:18. > :31:22.humbling thing I've ever done and the most significant thing because
:31:22. > :31:26.when I got to the UK, and people were beeping their horns, then you
:31:26. > :31:33.found out how much money was being raised, it was beyond anything I
:31:33. > :31:36.could have thought. Running on the hair line fracture, you had a hair
:31:36. > :31:39.line fracture. Towards the end, they put that boot on and they
:31:39. > :31:43.booked an operating theatre the following day. When they did the
:31:43. > :31:48.scan, they decided it didn't have to be operated on. So I don't know.
:31:48. > :31:53.I mean, everything's settled down. But I'm old any way. So everything
:31:53. > :31:58.hurts any way. It just hurts a little bit more than it used to.
:31:58. > :32:02.The day after it as all over, was it a terrible let down? Was it
:32:02. > :32:06.euphoric? Presumably you spent months preparing for it? Yeah, yeah,
:32:06. > :32:09.what's odd about it, is it becomes everything that you think about,
:32:09. > :32:14.because it's such a big thing. It was set up. It was in the press and
:32:14. > :32:17.then you think, I can't let anyone down by not doing. It when you
:32:17. > :32:22.finish, it's like you've got nothing else to think about. You've
:32:22. > :32:26.got your life back, but then, the first week or so you're just
:32:26. > :32:30.swelling up and everything just hurts. Oh, God. It's like vaing a
:32:30. > :32:35.baby. I'm saying this and there's women sat at home who have given
:32:35. > :32:45.birth thinking "Get over yourself!" Nobody sponsored me!
:32:45. > :32:45.
:32:45. > :32:49.APPLAUSE Nicki, are you sporting at all?
:32:49. > :32:53.You've got to keep fit for what you do. Being on stage keeps you fit.
:32:53. > :32:59.It's almost like cardio. When I'm on tour, I lose so much weight so
:32:59. > :33:02.quick. When I'm at home I have to do so much to lose it. What Dow do?
:33:02. > :33:07.I get on the elliptical machine, I shouldn't say that, the one that
:33:07. > :33:12.goes like this. And that one does it for me. Do that for 30 minutes
:33:12. > :33:20.every day. That's when I'm in my workout mode. I've got one of them.
:33:20. > :33:25.You cannot look tough as a bloke on one of them. Yeah. Then when you
:33:25. > :33:29.stop it goes back wards. It's very awkward. Mark was very sporty as a
:33:29. > :33:35.kid. Was it wrestling you did? was a wrestler yeah. Proper, like
:33:35. > :33:41.on a team. Not like MMA or anything like that. I was a collegiate, you
:33:41. > :33:44.know high school wrestler. Why did you stop? Erm... I saw the drama
:33:44. > :33:49.department and they could eat whatever they want and the girls
:33:49. > :33:55.are much better looking. LAUGHTER
:33:55. > :33:58.John we have to say, you are going on a huge tour next year. This year,
:33:58. > :34:01.September. This is it. Like when you do something like the Sport
:34:01. > :34:05.Relief thing, it takes over everything. You forget you've got
:34:05. > :34:08.to go back to work. I've got an arena tour booked from September to
:34:08. > :34:12.November. But it can only be that time because that's the only time
:34:12. > :34:16.I've got free. You know what it's like, you do stand up, what you do
:34:16. > :34:22.and what you do, stand up is what I do. I love doing it. I had to get
:34:22. > :34:26.back to it. It's big arenas. It is the big arenas, yeah. The tour is
:34:26. > :34:29.called roller coaster. People all over the country want to see you.
:34:29. > :34:34.want to go. I want to go. APPLAUSE
:34:34. > :34:37.Good luck with that. Time for some music. One of the
:34:37. > :34:47.greatest singer song writers of his generation, back after a long Time
:34:47. > :35:00.
:35:00. > :35:06.Out of the game, it is Mr Rufus Listen, congratulations on this,

:35:12. > :35:19.is. This is your seventh album. Wow! Yeah, I know. I've written an
:35:19. > :35:24.op rand a musical in the meantime. So I'm basically, you know insane.

:35:28. > :35:32.money. You have a sexy video as well. Yeah with Helena Bonham-
:35:32. > :35:37.Carter. How did you get her in it? Just a couple of sophisticated
:35:37. > :35:41.wonderful people who had to get together, a force of nature.
:35:41. > :35:45.ends up in her bra and pants. We're not showing that bit. Yeah, yeah.
:35:45. > :35:52.She's amazing. She's great. It was nice of her. Yeah it was. She used
:35:52. > :35:57.to come to a lot of my shows. I thought she was a bit of a stalker.
:35:57. > :36:01.I was like, who's that weird woman with the hair. But then I realise
:36:01. > :36:06.today was her. Was good is all these great things are happening.
