It's a week when we celebrate all things spooky. I'm going to make my

:00:13.:00:18.

audience scream. I'm coming to get you. All right then. I will drink

:00:18.:00:22.

your blood. Nothing? OK. Robbie Williams is on

:00:22.:00:32.
:00:32.:00:49.

The programme contains some strong CHEERING

:00:49.:00:55.

You lovely people. Thank you very much. Thank you so much. You're

:00:55.:01:00.

very kind. Tonight, chart topping singer, Robbie Williams is with us.

:01:00.:01:05.

Yes, he is. Ballerina turned Strictly judge, Darcey Bussell is

:01:05.:01:13.

gracing us. One of my favourite comedians Paul O'Grady is here.

:01:13.:01:18.

And also, dropping in, hopefully not literally, the daredevil who

:01:18.:01:23.

jumped from the edge of space, world record breaking skydiver,

:01:23.:01:32.

Felix Baumgartner is here. I know! Did you see it? Did you all

:01:32.:01:41.

watch it? It was incredible. He did a skydive from 24 miles up. So

:01:41.:01:45.

brave. I mean I say brave, is that the right word? No. Probably stupid

:01:45.:01:53.

would be a better word. Here he is about to jump. Yeah, OK on three,

:01:53.:02:02.

one, two... Two and a bit, two and a bit more. It's so windy. Any way

:02:02.:02:07.

it all ended well. I'm not saying he was nervous, but here he is

:02:07.:02:12.

after they got him out of his space suit.

:02:12.:02:14.

LAUGHTER Very excited that Robbie Williams

:02:14.:02:22.

is on the show. Such a huge star! You know what I love about him,

:02:22.:02:32.
:02:32.:02:34.

he's always got time for his fans. He does. Take that. Robbie's been

:02:34.:02:38.

performing all over Europe. Here he is on the Italian version of the X

:02:38.:02:45.

Factor. Hello! How good does the Italian X Factor look, fantastic.

:02:45.:02:53.

There Robbie gets to cuddle a sexy young lady. Ours? Louis Walsh.

:02:53.:03:02.

All right, don't do a Tulisa. A huge welcome back to Paul O'Grady,

:03:02.:03:07.

ladies and gentleman! APPLAUSE

:03:07.:03:12.

Famous for his alter ego Lily Savage. I have to say not every man

:03:12.:03:20.

looks good dressed as a woman, no. Hello boys! And hey, it's the first

:03:20.:03:25.

time on the show for the wonderful Darcey Bussell, so pretty, now

:03:25.:03:30.

Strictly judge, until recently one of the world's finest ballerinas.

:03:30.:03:35.

There she is in action. So beautiful.

:03:35.:03:45.
:03:45.:03:46.

I wonder, is there ever a time when a tutu isn't sexy? Is there? Even

:03:46.:03:51.

he's surprised to find himself in my monologue. She performed with

:03:51.:03:58.

the world renowned Carlos Acosta. Hello! They both appeared in Swan

:03:58.:04:04.

Lake where Darcy played the White Swan. There they are. Yeah, I

:04:04.:04:10.

believe what he's doing there is taking her up the swany.

:04:10.:04:16.

Let's get some guests on. Later, we'll meet Felix Baumgartner.

:04:16.:04:23.

First, he's a comedian with a savage way. It's Paul O'Grady.

:04:23.:04:27.

APPLAUSE Hello darling.

:04:27.:04:33.

Lovely to see you. Have a seat. And from the Royal Ballet to the queen

:04:33.:04:37.

of Strictly, it's Darcey Bussell! APPLAUSE

:04:37.:04:43.

Wow! Look at you, gorgeous. Come in and have a seat. And yes, we will

:04:43.:04:47.

let him entertain us, it's Robbie Williams!

:04:47.:04:54.

# Let me entertain you # CHEERING AND APPLAUSE Have a seat.

:04:54.:05:02.

# Let me entertain you # Sit, sit, sit.

:05:02.:05:07.

That is a couch. That's proper. Yeah, I'm seeing chat, I'm liking

:05:07.:05:11.

it. They put me in this pigging waist coat again. And it's making

:05:11.:05:19.

me look unfortunate. So I'm going to have to undo it.

:05:19.:05:23.

There we go. Happy now? Yeah. look good either way. Thank you

:05:23.:05:28.

very much. Everyone looks lovely. You're all suited and booted. And

:05:28.:05:33.

you have legs again. You forget behind the thing. Yeah, who knows

:05:33.:05:40.

what I've got on. What's this yellow sample? Did you not ask for

:05:40.:05:45.

that? I don't know. It's beer or is it cider? Oh, no, it's cider.

:05:45.:05:51.

Lovely, I didn't know it was coming. Do you want that? Don't give me

:05:51.:05:56.

cider, I'm such a lightweight these days. I whiff of the barmaid's

:05:56.:06:00.

apron as I'm in trouble. Does it make awe gresive? No, I don't get

:06:00.:06:05.

aggressive on drink, never. You get happy? Very happy, yeah. Then I

:06:05.:06:12.

wake up in a skip with a kebab. Then I get aggressive.

:06:12.:06:22.
:06:22.:06:23.

Listen, congratulations, little Theodora? Yes. There she is. That

:06:23.:06:27.

is so lovely. Yes. Can I just say, looking at that picture though, you

:06:27.:06:34.

have slightly let the house work go. The house looks like a tip? Oh, you

:06:34.:06:44.

actually mean the house and not the body? No. Can I just say Theodora

:06:44.:06:49.

is a beautiful name, old classic name. Weren't people expecting you

:06:49.:06:58.

to be more rock star? Storm. Yeah that kind of thing. Debris. Didn't

:06:58.:07:03.

you have an incident with Gwyneth Paltrow's child? Yes unfortunately

:07:03.:07:07.

I did. It was at my house in Los Angeles and the Coldplay boys had

:07:07.:07:12.

been over for a game of football. Then I put on a spread afterwards.

:07:12.:07:22.
:07:22.:07:23.

There was a little buffet. Gawineth turned up. She's walking over and

:07:23.:07:29.

in my head I'm saying, say something, say something. I said

:07:29.:07:39.
:07:39.:07:41.

"Does melon want some Apple? Easily done? Easily done. Paul, your

:07:41.:07:45.

daughter is Sharon. You didn't want to call her Sharon due?

:07:45.:07:50.

LAUGHTER No. Whose idea was it? Ti, wasn't

:07:51.:07:55.

mine, believe you me. I wanted to call her gypsy Rose. She wasn't

:07:55.:08:03.

having it. I was a big fan of Gypsy Rose Lee. I could hear myself

:08:03.:08:10.

shouting her "Gypsy Rose, get in for your tea." I'm sorry, Apple,

:08:10.:08:15.

calling a kid bloody apple. You might as well say King Edward or

:08:15.:08:20.

celery for God sake. Granny smith Martin. Now that she's here and

:08:20.:08:23.

you're holding her and everything, do you feel responsible, like a

:08:23.:08:30.

proper grown up? Yeah and I love it. I really do love it. I was worried

:08:30.:08:34.

that before she came, I've been a pop star since I was 16, I haven't

:08:34.:08:37.

had to do anything for myself and now I'm going to be asked to guard

:08:37.:08:41.

this life and take care of her. I was worried there would be no bond

:08:41.:08:45.

and I would be a selfish person, but you know, you just melt. The

:08:45.:08:49.

baby came out and everything changed cosmically, spiritually,

:08:49.:08:54.

life, everything. It was just this moment of, wonder and from that

:08:54.:09:00.

moment in, I'm in. I'm nappy changer, I'm chief burper, I'm

:09:00.:09:06.

feeder. And she's a good little, she's an amazing little girl. And

:09:07.:09:11.

every parent is going to say that about their daughters and sons and

:09:11.:09:17.

stuff, but I'm a new parent, so I still have that euphoria and that,

:09:17.:09:27.

she hasn't pissed me off yet. APPLAUSE

:09:27.:09:32.

You know, you were very young when you started. Were you 17 when you

:09:32.:09:36.

got 80,000 Valentine cards? I was 15 when I auditioned. 16 when I

:09:36.:09:42.

joined. Then I was 17 when I got 74,000 Valentine's cards. What's

:09:42.:09:50.

that going to do to a boy. It's mad. Yeah, I'm from a council estate in

:09:50.:09:53.

Stoke-on-Trent. You're a guy at school one day. The next day the

:09:53.:09:57.

police are cordoning off the road because there's too many girls

:09:57.:10:02.

outside. My mum shut the curtains in 1990 and didn't open them again

:10:02.:10:08.

until 1995. It was very, very strange, very, very wonderful and

:10:08.:10:12.

very, very weird. We used to have this coach load of Germans that

:10:12.:10:16.

used to pull up on a Thursday because they organised trips to

:10:16.:10:22.

Take That's houses. They used to get out and pull up things from the

:10:22.:10:27.

garden, flowers and stuff, jump over the back and nick me pants and

:10:27.:10:33.

bits of fence would go. They would get on the bus and go off to Mark's

:10:33.:10:36.

house. That happened every Thursday. Things were...

:10:36.:10:40.

LAUGHTER That's incedsible. Yeah, things

:10:40.:10:44.

were quiend mind blowing. Is it in Japan that you're like a rock star.

:10:44.:10:48.

Yeah they treat me like Robbie Williams. It's really odd. They

:10:48.:10:52.

come out of the stage door and they're going wah. You have

:10:52.:10:56.

bodyguards to get to your car. I've never experienced that. Do they

:10:56.:11:00.

give you lots of gifts? A lot of gifts. The last time we went when

:11:00.:11:04.

my kids were really young. I think I had my youngest with me and she

:11:05.:11:10.

has blonde curly hair and they're obsessed with blonde children. They

:11:10.:11:16.

gave so many gifts, I got a life- sized well not life-sized but

:11:16.:11:20.

Japanese doll with real hair and they're quite spooky. It came in an

:11:20.:11:23.

amazing box. But really expensive.Ive mean extraordinary

:11:23.:11:26.

gifts that you can't leave in the hotel. You have to take them home

:11:26.:11:32.

with you. My kids really hate it. I put in a list of things that I

:11:32.:11:35.

wanted. The first time with Take That it was customary to bring

:11:35.:11:41.

gifts. It was amazing. You're impolite if you don't. I like

:11:41.:11:46.

rollerblades and T-shirts and they brought them me. Do you know what I

:11:46.:11:49.

get? Liquorice all sorts and black puddings.

:11:49.:11:53.

I tell you something, Saturday morning, I think what's that smell?

:11:53.:11:57.

I go down and there's a big Jiffy bag that's leaking. I open it and

:11:57.:12:02.

there's two black pudding that were posted a fortnight ago.

:12:02.:12:09.

I drop hints, you know. I say what I want. I was in Japan once and

:12:09.:12:14.

this actually happened. I got into the lift and there were two fans in

:12:14.:12:20.

there and they went "lobby". And I said, "Yes, please." That's not a

:12:20.:12:27.

joke. That actually happened. APPLAUSE

:12:27.:12:31.

With ballet fans, because it is very sexy in that you know, the men

:12:31.:12:35.

and women are not wearing many clothes, but are fans too posh to

:12:35.:12:40.

write pervy letters and things? no I have had quite a few pervy

:12:40.:12:45.

letters. Sorry about that. I got your address and I thought.

:12:45.:12:48.

sometimes used to get on the Tube after a show with my flowers and

:12:48.:12:51.

everything and your fans would follow you on and sit beside you

:12:51.:12:56.

and stuff. The only, I've only got weird shopping lists, kind of

:12:56.:13:04.

sexual shopping lists? Do tell. very kinky. I've had weird ones.

:13:04.:13:09.

Things they'd like to do with you or for... Yes. Perhaps not then.

:13:09.:13:15.

let's not say. Oh, I see. Positions and things? No, the shopping list

:13:15.:13:20.

of the food they'd like... To eat off you. That's very Japanese.

:13:20.:13:27.

want to eat food off you? Buy a table, really! So they send a

:13:27.:13:30.

letter to you telling you what they'd like to eat off you? Yes.

:13:30.:13:36.

Was that one or a few? They'd give me the list of what they had bought

:13:36.:13:40.

ready. They went out planning this. They went shopping for Darcy.

:13:40.:13:45.

And then came and gave you the letter? Yes with the shopping list

:13:45.:13:49.

going "I'm ready", that kind of thing. I'm here, come round and

:13:49.:13:53.

I'll eat off you. Was there a black pudding mentioned?

:13:53.:13:59.

LAUGHTER I wouldn't mind if there was.

:13:59.:14:03.

Robbie Williams, you are in such a good place right now. You've had a

:14:03.:14:06.

baby. You got married. You kissed and made up with Take That, great

:14:06.:14:12.

tour. Now new album and song that is number one, isn't it? It's

:14:12.:14:16.

number one on Sunday. It is. APPLAUSE

:14:17.:14:21.

It's number one now. By Sunday that should be number one. The thing is,

:14:21.:14:26.

because this is your solo album, but Gary Barlow he did work on it.

:14:26.:14:33.

Yes, he did. Gary comes over to Los Angeles and he sets up in my attic

:14:33.:14:37.

and we go up there and spend all day laughing about what we can and

:14:37.:14:43.

cannot say on a record. Which is obvious if you list ton the lyrics

:14:43.:14:49.

of Candy, none of them make sense. Yeah, we've written a ton of songs

:14:49.:14:53.

together. Me and Gaz have done about 25, 30 songs. I'm saving some

:14:53.:14:56.

for other projects and we have a good time. He comes over and we

:14:56.:15:00.

have a laugh. I'm not making this up in a showbiz way, I'm so glad

:15:00.:15:04.

that worked out, that you are still, you know because when you got back

:15:04.:15:07.

together again, we were so excited. APPLAUSE

:15:07.:15:12.

Everyone was so pleased, but then you thought, will there be a moment

:15:12.:15:19.

when they're all in the recordling oo -- recording studio going - this

:15:19.:15:23.

is why we don't work together again. No it wasn't him. It was that Mark

:15:23.:15:27.

Owen. What a pain in the arse he is. No, he's a lovely guy too. We had

:15:27.:15:32.

the most amazing time. We came back and wrote a critically acclaimed

:15:32.:15:36.

album, commercially acclaimed album and.biggest tour the UK's ever seen

:15:36.:15:43.

and we all became firm and very good friends. We vanquished the

:15:43.:15:48.

demons in the past. You should be friends. Yeah a lot of stuff that

:15:48.:15:54.

happened was when I was 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, your formative years. Gaz

:15:54.:15:58.

was really young too. We were at each other and now we're not. We're

:15:58.:16:03.

older blokes, more mature. He's a very, very, very decent man. I call

:16:03.:16:07.

him the captain. I go to him for advice and stuff. I love him to

:16:07.:16:09.

bits. I think he loves me too. think he does, yes.

:16:10.:16:14.

APPLAUSE Everyone's happy. It's a happy

:16:14.:16:18.

story. Later on, I'm guessing you're performing Candy due to the

:16:19.:16:24.

paint work. Oh, yeah. The video, though, it's a

:16:24.:16:29.

proper funny video. That picture of you with the old lady.

:16:29.:16:35.

It's quite a shocking image. It is, isn't it. Yeah, they wanted know

:16:35.:16:39.

kick a dog. I'm an animal lover. LAUGHTER

:16:39.:16:44.

So, I was not having that. Then they said, punch a pensioner, I was

:16:44.:16:50.

like, yeah, I'm in. Could you please address your

:16:50.:16:56.

letters to "Robbie Williams", not us. Nothing to do with me. Must

:16:56.:17:01.

mention you're back giging, three nights at the O2 from November

:17:01.:17:06.

226789 that's a big deal. -- November 22. That's a big deal. You

:17:06.:17:12.

get nervous, still? Not now. Not so much. Because I had to do something

:17:12.:17:16.

about it. OK. All the way through the career - do you get nervous

:17:16.:17:22.

before you do? I don't get nervous now? I'm pretty much the same.

:17:22.:17:27.

There was a time I turned up to Milton Keynes and there was 60,000

:17:27.:17:31.

people waiting for me and I was on the bus and I went "I'm not doing

:17:31.:17:36.

it. Turn around." Seriously, I was like, I'm not going on. Turn around.

:17:36.:17:40.

My manager, who's here today, "Robert, I know you're saying that

:17:40.:17:45.

you can't do this, but I just thought I'd warn you that if you

:17:45.:17:49.

don't, it will cost you �1 million." I was like

:17:50.:17:59.
:18:00.:18:01.

# Let me entertain you # Now, Darcey Bussell, we are loving

:18:01.:18:05.

you on Saturday nights. This series of Strictly is so good. You've

:18:05.:18:12.

arrived at a very good time. lucky. But I'm a bit disappointed

:18:12.:18:17.

because you have a Catchphrase. It seems to have gone away already.

:18:17.:18:27.
:18:27.:18:29.

I didn't think about it and it disappeared. Yeah. Yah, OK. I know

:18:29.:18:37.

why it was because when I coach dancers I'm always -- I always want

:18:37.:18:43.

a response. You got it, yah, OK? I realised oh, no they're never going

:18:43.:18:47.

to speak to me. Soy have to talk at them. I find that weird.

:18:47.:18:54.

someone talk to you afterwards and go very good, but... No, I had such

:18:54.:18:58.

a shock because I didn't appreciate I was saying it so many times until

:18:58.:19:04.

they said, I think you should watch yourself. No really watch yourself.

:19:05.:19:11.

Wow, I can't even hear it. It's so add. I've -- odd. I've never had to

:19:11.:19:20.

open my mouth before. It was a south African yah. Yah, OK. In

:19:20.:19:26.

terms of joining those three guys, is it like walking into a local pub,

:19:26.:19:31.

the music stops, who's the new girl or are they nice? They're gorgeous

:19:31.:19:36.

and very protective. Constantly, are you OK? Anything you need?

:19:36.:19:39.

They're heaven. They've been doing it for nine years. The amount of

:19:39.:19:43.

energy they have and passion for the show is fabulous. I feel like

:19:43.:19:47.

I'm in very good company. It's a really high standard. Are you

:19:47.:19:50.

watching? I've watched a couple yeah. Is there a rumour you're

:19:50.:19:57.

going to be performing on it? yeah. I think. So I hope so. I have

:19:57.:20:07.
:20:07.:20:10.

an album out and I've done X Factor now. So there's only one left.

:20:10.:20:16.

they asked you? They ring me every year. I like a lie in.

:20:16.:20:21.

I am not getting up to be dragged around for eight hours a day. Like

:20:21.:20:26.

a little Russian -- by a little Russian doing a strict tango and I

:20:26.:20:30.

know what would happen. When I was, it takes me about three weeks to

:20:30.:20:33.

learn a dance routine. Once it's there, it's there for life. If I

:20:33.:20:37.

did this, you know in the eight hours a day for the week, I'd

:20:37.:20:41.

forget everything. Everything would leave me. It is about the music. I

:20:41.:20:46.

don't think you wo. Oh, I think it wo. You wouldn't want to stand

:20:46.:20:51.

there and be insulted would you. I'd go for them. That's what I'm

:20:51.:20:56.

saying. I couldn't take it. You're quite nice to them. I try and give

:20:56.:20:59.

constructive. As they get better and better then you're going to get

:20:59.:21:02.

bored if you give them the same correction every time. Like come on,

:21:02.:21:07.

how many times I have told you this. Do you ever think, I'm going to be

:21:07.:21:12.

vicious this week? I've got Craig next to me. I don't need to. He is

:21:12.:21:16.

rubbing off on me. My marking is quite low. That's where I'm a bit

:21:16.:21:22.

mean. That bitch. You've got some trained dancers and

:21:22.:21:25.

people who can barely walk. I'd be in the latter category. Who's going

:21:25.:21:32.

to win? Well, I have my favourites, obviously. I think we know who your

:21:32.:21:36.

favourite is. They're not supposed to have favourites. But we noticed

:21:36.:21:42.

this. Oh, no.

:21:42.:21:52.
:21:52.:21:53.

There's Louis. Look at her go. APPLAUSE

:21:53.:22:00.

It wasn't then. I had some friends in the audience... Yeah, yeah, yeah.

:22:00.:22:06.

We all know what that means. That's been done to me by builders. I've

:22:06.:22:14.

got a shopping list for this. Did you do that in the ballet.

:22:14.:22:21.

Middle of Swan Lake as you're dying. Would you go on the show? No.

:22:21.:22:26.

you not, have you got Two Left Feet? I don't want to know that I'm

:22:26.:22:30.

bad at it. I want to live in a lovely world where "I could do

:22:31.:22:34.

that." You want to dance when you watch the show, don't you? No, I'm

:22:34.:22:39.

quite happy sitting, drinking. Really? That doesn't mar my

:22:39.:22:48.

enjoyment in any way. We mustn't forget your amazing career. This

:22:48.:22:54.

book is still in the shops. that's just come out. There's

:22:54.:22:59.

amazing pictures in here. Like, that's inhuman. How can a person do

:22:59.:23:02.

that. There was no trampoline involved.

:23:03.:23:07.

That's just you and the ground. did that ballet after I had my

:23:07.:23:13.

second child as well. It was very challenging. You probably felt a

:23:13.:23:19.

lot lighter. You didn't have stitches there, did you? Thank you.

:23:19.:23:24.

Clearly an easy birth. That's incredible. This, I love

:23:24.:23:28.

this picture. Capturing this moment... How long after birth was

:23:28.:23:34.

that? Five months after. This, I mean, this is an incredible moment.

:23:34.:23:38.

This is your last ever performance at the opera house. How long was

:23:38.:23:42.

that standing ovation? It felt a long time. I was embarrassed

:23:42.:23:47.

actually. It was eight or nine minutes of just people cheering.

:23:47.:23:51.

was crying my eyes out. It was pathetic. It's nice that you got

:23:51.:23:54.

the impact, like you didn't wake up the next morning and think, oh, my

:23:54.:23:59.

God that was the last night. You got it that's was happening.

:23:59.:24:04.

usually controlled on stage. I totally lost it. I could hardly

:24:04.:24:10.

stand up. There is a quote from Christopher Wheldon, he said "What

:24:10.:24:13.

makes a ballerina like Darcy, a ballerina has a fragrance that

:24:13.:24:23.
:24:23.:24:26.

lingers off they have left the stage. "I do smell good. We have a

:24:26.:24:32.

picture of someone just checking on that fragrant. Oh, stop.

:24:32.:24:41.

That's art. Now, Paul, we're going to talk

:24:41.:24:46.

about your book. But we just have to talk about the new TV show, well

:24:46.:24:53.

it's finished now, for the love of dogs. OK. That was... Aawwee.

:24:53.:24:59.

were watching me playing. I went in every day and have a ball. I take

:24:59.:25:04.

my Carmi ne out, the boxer I was in love with. This is you at Battersea.

:25:04.:25:10.

Is it true you had it in your contract you didn't take a dog home.

:25:10.:25:15.

Yes, I wanted it to be illegal to take a dog. I would be coming out

:25:15.:25:18.

with puppies under me coat and all sorts. I thought, because I have

:25:18.:25:22.

enough animals. I have three dogs any way. I thought I can't have

:25:22.:25:27.

another one. I did fall at the final post. I got a puppy. So cute.

:25:27.:25:37.
:25:37.:25:38.

He's lovely, Eddie. He's a Jack-c hi. He's a chihuahua Jack Russell

:25:38.:25:44.

cross. He's a cracking little fella. Heez as hard as nails you know.

:25:44.:25:51.

Jack Russell's are. We have eight dogs. He'll see your four. I have

:25:51.:25:55.

two. The Jack Russell, she's in charge of everybody. We have a wolf

:25:55.:26:02.

as well. We have a wolf called Sid. The Jack Russell is a baby and runs

:26:02.:26:08.

the house. He goes with the pigs. I have eight pigs. I have nine pigs.

:26:08.:26:12.

Have you? I've got nine pigs. 12 pigs but I gave the other as way

:26:13.:26:18.

and then one died. Oh, my evank lean, cost me a fortune. Honestly.

:26:18.:26:25.

Is it true the thing that they all sleep in the bed? Yeah. It is

:26:25.:26:30.

amazing you're a father. They all pile in the bed. They're all coming

:26:30.:26:34.

over soon. Yeah, in the past, we have been known to actually have to

:26:34.:26:38.

get out of our bed, leave the bed to the dogs and go into another

:26:38.:26:44.

room to go to sleep. To go to sleep. Yeah. But there's been eight dogs

:26:44.:26:48.

on and in and around the bed, yeah. Is it true the thing about building

:26:48.:26:55.

the steps? We have doggy steps, yeah. Have you got them? No mine do

:26:55.:27:01.

flying leaps. Six in the morning normally across me face. When they

:27:01.:27:06.

get older and their hips start to go, have you not seen these doggy

:27:06.:27:11.

steps? Listening, Robbie, I have already got a swing on the ceiling,

:27:11.:27:17.

I can't have steps. No it's bad enough. I understand.

:27:17.:27:22.

Dog fans, we have a little treat for you now. Because Paul he's not

:27:22.:27:27.

the only writer here this evening. No, it's time too moat best selling

:27:27.:27:33.

author and star of the Oscar winning film The Artist Uggie is

:27:33.:27:42.

here with his book. There you go. Sit. Nice treats. How are you? Now,

:27:42.:27:49.

watch this. Speak. There you go, baby. He's so good. I'm obsessed by

:27:49.:27:56.

this. No, that's not speaking. Have one.

:27:56.:28:01.

It's so cute. You can have a thing for doing nothing. Very good. I

:28:01.:28:06.

believe you're a big fan of Darcey Bussell, are you? Yes? The

:28:06.:28:14.

fragrance that lingers? Because, no he is. We have a picture of you in

:28:14.:28:21.

Swan Lake. Haven't we? Yes, we do. Now Uggie, I'm not sure if you

:28:21.:28:26.

caught that swan, but I know I have a picture taken by the paparazzi

:28:26.:28:34.

after. I do, yeah. You've lost the weight, haven't you? You've been to

:28:34.:28:41.

the Oscars and now you've written your autobiography. I'm not joking.

:28:41.:28:50.

Uggie has written a book. And I have read it. It's a dog. He

:28:50.:28:56.

doesn't know what I'm saying. So that's Uggie. He'll be appearing in

:28:56.:29:06.
:29:06.:29:07.

or tied up close to a leading book shop soon. Come down for a sec.

:29:07.:29:15.

Come down, give me the book. Take it. Good boy. There you go.

:29:15.:29:23.

Uggie, everybody! APPLAUSE

:29:23.:29:30.

I want him. So cute. I hope he's in a safe dressing room, that's all I

:29:30.:29:38.

can say. Under the coat. Seen him outside Tottenham Court Road tube

:29:38.:29:47.

station tomorrow - sit. Sweet little dog. Isn't he lovely. It's

:29:47.:29:52.

not just Uggie who's written an autobiography. Paul O'Grady has

:29:52.:29:56.

managed to squeeze another volume. I was bored you see. Three volumes

:29:56.:30:04.

of your life. Yes. This is it, you're up to date. I'll never be up

:30:04.:30:09.

to date. It's a nightmare. You're more or less up to date. You kind

:30:09.:30:15.

of cheat though. Yes. You get to 88 and just skip. About 200 years.

:30:15.:30:19.

it because I mean obviously the books are all about you, but your

:30:19.:30:23.

mother is such a major character throughout them and it's weird

:30:23.:30:28.

because you adored her and she adored you. Don't know about that.

:30:28.:30:33.

What's weird is that she never really knew about Lily. No, she

:30:33.:30:36.

would have killed me I never told her. This huge thing in your life

:30:36.:30:43.

and you never told her No. Wasn't there a moment when lily sold some

:30:43.:30:47.

clothes? Yes we were destitute at the time. It was in the 80s. There

:30:47.:30:52.

wasn't a lot of work around. All the mill towns and mining towns had

:30:52.:30:57.

closed. I thought I would have to sell a load of drag. There was a

:30:57.:31:06.

second hand clothes shop in Church Road in Birkenhead. There was

:31:06.:31:09.

sequined evening gown and I got ten quid for them. My mother stopped

:31:10.:31:14.

and said "Jesus, what kind of woman would wear stuff like that?" A big

:31:14.:31:19.

woman, that's all I'm saying. have you managed to remember

:31:19.:31:25.

everything? I just do. I have, there was a programme on Channel 4

:31:25.:31:29.

about a kid who can remember everything. I can relate to him.

:31:29.:31:36.

I'm the same. I can't remember last week. But I can remember 1970, 1980

:31:36.:31:40.

vividly. That's why it's taken me three. I can't say then I did, then

:31:40.:31:45.

I did that. I go into detail. What the dressing room was like and what

:31:46.:31:50.

the strippers were like. remember that much? Vividly.

:31:50.:31:55.

going to have to lie in mine. I've been to rehab twice. A lot of

:31:55.:31:59.

memories have fallen out. You go on tour to these places several times

:31:59.:32:04.

wouldn't you. Have you written your book yet? No. Are you going to?

:32:04.:32:07.

have a memory of each photograph. That's a nice way of remembering

:32:07.:32:11.

things, if you have a picture it's just like bang. Why don't you for

:32:12.:32:15.

your book, why don't you talk to like your friends and get them to

:32:15.:32:18.

tell stories about what they remember you doing. They were all

:32:18.:32:23.

off their heads too. They don't remember anything.

:32:23.:32:27.

it all together. The great thing about Lily is that she has a whole

:32:27.:32:31.

life, this whole back story, families. A lot of people don't

:32:31.:32:38.

know that Lily was in a convent for some time. Yes she was in a

:32:38.:32:43.

carmelite order. It was St Philomena's of Wigan or the flesh

:32:43.:32:47.

of St Philomena that was flogged off, I don't mean sold on eBay I

:32:47.:32:51.

mean whipped off. How long was she there? Notd very long, three years.

:32:51.:32:56.

That was the maximum. She was only allowed to say two words a year.

:32:56.:33:04.

The first year mother superior says "Say your two words." She said

:33:04.:33:09.

"Damp beds." The following year she's asked for the two words. She

:33:09.:33:15.

says "Laosy food." The third year she says "I quit". And mother

:33:15.:33:19.

superior said "Thank fuck for that, you've done nothing but moan since

:33:19.:33:22.

you got here." APPLAUSE

:33:22.:33:31.

The most ridiculous joke. A good joke.

:33:31.:33:36.

Before Robbie sings for us, everyone on this couch tonight has

:33:37.:33:46.
:33:47.:33:50.

done extraordinary things but only Remove seat belt. Attaboy. That's

:33:50.:33:56.

good. Stand up on the exterior step. Keep your head down. Release the

:33:56.:34:06.
:34:06.:34:17.

I'm going over. APPLAUSE

:34:18.:34:23.

Yes, it's my final guest, the man who fell to earth, skydiver

:34:23.:34:26.

extraordinaire, Felix Baumgartner. # It's raining men, hallelujah

:34:26.:34:36.
:34:36.:34:46.

# It's raining men # Have a seat there.

:34:46.:34:52.

How are you? Well, back on the ground. And alive. That's the main

:34:52.:34:56.

thing. Now the whole thing took about eight minutes, didn't it?

:34:56.:35:01.

From when I stepped off I think I had four minutes and 20 seconds of

:35:01.:35:06.

freefall and then four minutes on my parachute. During that time, are

:35:06.:35:10.

you just hoping you aren't going to die? Are you thinking about it? Are

:35:10.:35:16.

you able to go oh, look there's China? I was scared to miss the

:35:16.:35:20.

planet honestly. I bet you were. Do you have time to think about stuff

:35:20.:35:27.

while it's happening? Yeah. We have been practising for many years. We

:35:27.:35:31.

had practice jumps from 70,000 feet, 90,000 feet. I never had a thought

:35:31.:35:35.

I'm going to die. I only thought OK, I hope I break the speed of sound.

:35:35.:35:40.

That's the faster than the speed of sound. So physically, when you

:35:40.:35:45.

break the sound barrier, like does something happen? Do your ears pop,

:35:45.:35:53.

what? What? Does something happen? I didn't feel anything. Are you

:35:53.:35:58.

totally numb? No. I felt like he was going to combust or something.

:35:58.:36:06.

Weren't you scared? There was a lot of talk about that, yah. The first

:36:06.:36:10.

time they were explaining to me what was happen if something goes

:36:10.:36:14.

wrong. You sit there and think, I don't want to know it, you know.

:36:14.:36:18.

Because it's not funny. No, but also, here it is, it's great happen

:36:18.:36:25.

yip ending, lovely, we're here. All going hue ray, that's fantastic.

:36:25.:36:29.

But at what price? I mean your mum and your girlfriend, I mean, what

:36:29.:36:33.

they must have gone through. Yeah, you have seen my mum. I know. She's

:36:33.:36:38.

going through it. Crying and that. When that capsule took off she was

:36:38.:36:42.

crying. Understandably. Does it not make you think twice about doing

:36:42.:36:45.

it? I kind of feel bad to put my mum on that spot and my girlfriend

:36:45.:36:48.

you know. But this is what I was doing the last couple of years.

:36:49.:36:52.

This is what I've been working on so there's no way back. Was it

:36:52.:36:58.

always a dream? Since I was a kid I had a big desire to fly like a bird.

:36:58.:37:07.

What's your actual job? Skydiving. It wasn't like, oh, next Thursday

:37:07.:37:14.

aisle Ogogo up in that balloon. won't be in on Thursday. You do

:37:14.:37:18.

stunts all the time? Not stumps but I have been a professional jumper

:37:19.:37:26.

for many years. I did base jumps from the highest buildings in the

:37:26.:37:31.

world? Illegal jumps? Most of the time. Where was the most dangerous

:37:31.:37:38.

jump that you've done in a town? The first was in 1997, the petronas

:37:38.:37:43.

Twin Towers in Kuala Lumpur. I had to dress like a businessman

:37:43.:37:48.

and fake some ID to get access to the building. And I put my parasuit

:37:48.:37:54.

in a suit -- parachute into n a suitcase. I went out on a window

:37:54.:37:57.

washer crane. It's all about the wind as well. If it's windy there's

:37:57.:38:05.

no way to do it. Yeah right run, yeah. She knows a lot about this.

:38:05.:38:11.

She's all over this. Any tips she's your woman. You wax that wind Felix.

:38:11.:38:15.

That could kill you. I'll take you oult for dinner after and we'll

:38:15.:38:19.

talk about wind. She has a fragrance that lingers, I'll tell

:38:19.:38:25.

you. That But like that must be, that feeling

:38:25.:38:30.

must be a very hard one to think, I'm never going to feel that again.,

:38:30.:38:34.

No but you're going to want to do it again, aren't you? No. That's

:38:35.:38:39.

it? You're happy. That's once in a lifetime. You don't want to go

:38:39.:38:46.

higher? Is there another thing that you want to achieve that's similar?

:38:46.:38:50.

Don't chance your luck, you've done it once. I'd say thank you, no more.

:38:50.:38:55.

Every box has been ticked for you now? I think what I want to do in

:38:55.:38:58.

the future is inspire the next generation because I've been

:38:58.:39:02.

getting so many e-mails from e- mails from young kids and people

:39:02.:39:06.

who told me thank you for doing this because we never had our own

:39:06.:39:11.

moon landing and they say this has been like the moon landing now.

:39:11.:39:17.

That's an honour for me. It's a great honour to meet you. If people

:39:17.:39:23.

want to see the full story of the jump, Space Dive it's BBC Two this

:39:23.:39:27.

:39:27.:39:31.
