0:00:02 > 0:00:04Good evening, everyone. My name is Nicole Kidman,
0:00:04 > 0:00:05and welcome to The Graham Norton Show!
0:00:09 > 0:00:17This programme contains some strong language
0:00:20 > 0:00:23CHEERING AND APPLAUSE Oh!
0:00:23 > 0:00:25Oh! Yes!
0:00:26 > 0:00:28Yes!
0:00:28 > 0:00:31Hello. Hello. Oh!
0:00:32 > 0:00:37Good evening. Thank... Oh, thank you. Thank you. Oh, thank you.
0:00:37 > 0:00:40No, thank you. You're very welcome.
0:00:40 > 0:00:42Hey, a great show tonight,
0:00:42 > 0:00:48so you can kick back and relax after a whirlwind week of election fever.
0:00:48 > 0:00:50Three weeks to go!
0:00:51 > 0:00:54This week, one of my favourite parts of the campaign every time -
0:00:54 > 0:00:57yeah, the unveiling of the battle buses.
0:00:57 > 0:00:59I know. Exciting, yeah!
0:00:59 > 0:01:02Here's the Tory one. Oh - beautiful!
0:01:02 > 0:01:04"Theresa May for Britain."
0:01:04 > 0:01:07As for Theresa, probably the first time she's ever been on a bus.
0:01:10 > 0:01:15"What's that? It's a lorry with a door on the side."
0:01:15 > 0:01:18It's funny, though. On the side, no mention of the Conservative Party -
0:01:18 > 0:01:20just Theresa May.
0:01:20 > 0:01:23Meanwhile, here's Jeremy Corbyn's bus.
0:01:23 > 0:01:25No mention of Jeremy.
0:01:27 > 0:01:32It's as if they're hoping we'll just forget about him.
0:01:32 > 0:01:37Poor Jeremy. He can't catch a break. Here he is at this week's Labour manifesto launch.
0:01:37 > 0:01:39What are the chances?
0:01:41 > 0:01:44"I'll just sit here - what could go wrong?"
0:01:44 > 0:01:45No!
0:01:45 > 0:01:49Jeremy, though... Jeremy's had a great week. He's been chasing the youth vote, hasn't he?
0:01:49 > 0:01:53And he had brunch with a grime artist, JME.
0:01:53 > 0:01:55Mm-hm. Here they are.
0:01:56 > 0:01:58That looks fun, doesn't it?
0:01:59 > 0:02:01"What's that repetitive droning noise?"
0:02:01 > 0:02:03said the grime artist.
0:02:07 > 0:02:11Meanwhile, the Prime Minster aimed a little older and met some ladies
0:02:11 > 0:02:13from the Women's Institute.
0:02:13 > 0:02:17There was a slightly awkward moment when she said "I'm Mrs May,"
0:02:17 > 0:02:21because they were working on plans for next year's nude calendar.
0:02:24 > 0:02:27On Wednesday, the Lib Dems' manifesto came out.
0:02:27 > 0:02:30It would have come out sooner, but Tim Farron couldn't decide if it was a sin or not.
0:02:31 > 0:02:33I... I don't...
0:02:33 > 0:02:36APPLAUSE Leave it! Leave it!
0:02:36 > 0:02:37It was a long time ago.
0:02:37 > 0:02:41Now, I don't know what my audience will think of this policy,
0:02:41 > 0:02:44but the Lib Dems want to legalise cannabis.
0:02:44 > 0:02:47CHEERING
0:02:47 > 0:02:49It's not going to work, Tim.
0:02:50 > 0:02:54Farron has said that he thinks the Lib Dems will win enough seats to be
0:02:54 > 0:02:55the official opposition.
0:02:55 > 0:02:58So not just legalising cannabis - he's also been smoking it.
0:03:01 > 0:03:04Let's get some guests on! CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:03:04 > 0:03:06We've got a special bumper night of music -
0:03:06 > 0:03:10not only will we be having music and chat from the mighty Keith Urban,
0:03:10 > 0:03:15we'll also have the brand-new single from the sensational Sheryl Crow, everybody.
0:03:17 > 0:03:20But first, it's a rare treat to welcome this man back.
0:03:20 > 0:03:23He's a star of stage and screen whose credits include The Good Wife,
0:03:23 > 0:03:26GoldenEye, X-Men, and a Tony Award-winning turn in Cabaret.
0:03:26 > 0:03:29Great Scot, it's Alan Cumming, everybody!
0:03:29 > 0:03:31CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:03:31 > 0:03:34There he is. Oh, beautiful in green. How lovely to see you.
0:03:34 > 0:03:36- You too.- Alan Cumming!
0:03:38 > 0:03:41And joining Alan, she's the Oscar-winning star of Moulin Rouge,
0:03:41 > 0:03:44The Hours and this year's TV hit Big Little Lies.
0:03:44 > 0:03:47It's always a pleasure to welcome back one of my favourites,
0:03:47 > 0:03:49the beautiful and talented Nicole Kidman.
0:03:49 > 0:03:51CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:03:51 > 0:03:53Wow!
0:03:53 > 0:03:56- Wow! Hello!- Hi!
0:03:56 > 0:03:59Hi! Come in, sit down. Oh!
0:04:01 > 0:04:04APPLAUSE DROWNS SPEECH
0:04:04 > 0:04:06I was chatting to you backstage -
0:04:06 > 0:04:08I was just focused on this bit of you.
0:04:08 > 0:04:10I hadn't noticed the lovely...
0:04:10 > 0:04:12- The split...- The split! - ..which I have now covered.
0:04:13 > 0:04:15- You look great! - Give us a look, Nicole!
0:04:17 > 0:04:20Welcome, both. It's a lovely night - lots of music.
0:04:20 > 0:04:23Are you a fan of any of the acts we're having on, Nicole?
0:04:25 > 0:04:29One in particular. Actually, both, because I have to say...
0:04:29 > 0:04:31But you're not married to Sheryl Crow.
0:04:32 > 0:04:35- Er...- That is true.
0:04:35 > 0:04:38So, yeah... So, I'm a fan of both of them.
0:04:38 > 0:04:41Excellent. And very nice of Nicole Kidman to be here,
0:04:41 > 0:04:44- because presumably you're dashing off to Cannes.- I'm going to Cannes, yeah.
0:04:44 > 0:04:46Have you guys bumped into each other at Cannes?
0:04:46 > 0:04:49- You've hosted events at Cannes, haven't you?- Have you, Alan?
0:04:49 > 0:04:52Yes, I hosted the Cinema Against Aids gala, the Amfar thing.
0:04:52 > 0:04:54- I'm doing that this year. - You are?- Yes.- Oh!
0:04:54 > 0:04:56Well, Alan's got some tips...
0:04:58 > 0:05:00..as in, "Back out."
0:05:00 > 0:05:02When I did it, they have these auction nights -
0:05:02 > 0:05:04- it's like a big fundraiser thing. - Yes, that's...
0:05:04 > 0:05:06This is really sad.
0:05:06 > 0:05:07You know Ryan Gosling?
0:05:07 > 0:05:09- Yes.- He...
0:05:09 > 0:05:12So, he came on, and I didn't have to introduce this, thank goodness.
0:05:12 > 0:05:15I just had to go on after him.
0:05:15 > 0:05:19They said, "What we're going to do is, Ryan Gosling will make out
0:05:19 > 0:05:23"with anyone in the audience, man or woman."
0:05:23 > 0:05:27- He offered that?- He offered that. - I will not be offering that.
0:05:30 > 0:05:33- Well...- Guess what, though. - How much money?
0:05:33 > 0:05:35This is what happened.
0:05:35 > 0:05:39This is what was terrible. The bidding started at 40,000,
0:05:39 > 0:05:41or 40,000 euros or something.
0:05:41 > 0:05:44And there was, like, crickets.
0:05:45 > 0:05:49And Ryan Gosling's standing there licking his lips, getting ready.
0:05:49 > 0:05:52And nobody bidded. Nobody bidded
0:05:52 > 0:05:55and poor Ryan Gosling had to walk off.
0:05:57 > 0:06:00I was like, "Take the... Start at 500."
0:06:01 > 0:06:04It was just too much money, I don't know, or everyone was just too...
0:06:04 > 0:06:08- Couldn't be bothered.- That's awful. - Mortification. I just thought,
0:06:08 > 0:06:12- "Poor boy."- Just the sound of his footsteps going...
0:06:12 > 0:06:15At least he's bounced back. He hasn't let it dog him.
0:06:15 > 0:06:18That's a good tip, cos offer it at, like, 100.
0:06:18 > 0:06:22- Offer it low and then start up. - 100.- 50 pence!
0:06:22 > 0:06:24Go low. Go low.
0:06:24 > 0:06:2550 pence for a snog.
0:06:25 > 0:06:29You go to Cannes a lot, Nicole.
0:06:29 > 0:06:32- Yeah.- And you've got about four things at Cannes this year.
0:06:32 > 0:06:36- I do.- So, how does that...- But I'm small roles in some of them, and...
0:06:36 > 0:06:39There's no small roles, only small actors, Nicole.
0:06:43 > 0:06:46- "It's about me." - I had a really good...
0:06:46 > 0:06:48Pivotal, pivotal roles.
0:06:48 > 0:06:52Kind of pivotal in some of them, and sometimes just supporting a friend,
0:06:52 > 0:06:55where I've done something for a director friend of mine.
0:06:55 > 0:06:57- You would have done that, right? - Yeah, sure.
0:06:57 > 0:07:00Yeah, and then I've got...
0:07:00 > 0:07:02- Small role.- Get me out of this!
0:07:02 > 0:07:04Is that how you pick films?
0:07:04 > 0:07:07More to do with the director than anything else?
0:07:07 > 0:07:09No. I think... I'm so spontaneous.
0:07:09 > 0:07:12Sometimes I'll choose things because of a script
0:07:12 > 0:07:17and I'll hope the director that finds its way to the piece is good.
0:07:17 > 0:07:21But, yeah, I am very drawn to auteurs -
0:07:21 > 0:07:25an auteur is someone that basically has the vision for the project
0:07:25 > 0:07:26and crafts it.
0:07:26 > 0:07:30Is it because of James Wan? Is a friend of yours, James Wan?
0:07:30 > 0:07:31Oh, you... Yes.
0:07:31 > 0:07:35I was surprised to read, but you're going to be in Aquaman.
0:07:35 > 0:07:37You are not Aquaman, but you're in it.
0:07:37 > 0:07:39I'd love to be Aquaman.
0:07:41 > 0:07:45I'm... I am the Queen Atlanna.
0:07:45 > 0:07:47- Of course you are.- Yeah!
0:07:49 > 0:07:53I was like... My daughters were like, "Do you get to wear a crown?"
0:07:53 > 0:07:56And I'm like, "Yes." "Do you get to have a tail?"
0:07:56 > 0:07:58I said, "Hmm, I can't answer that."
0:07:58 > 0:08:01But anyway... And then I said,
0:08:01 > 0:08:04"I get to wear mother-of-pearl all over my body."
0:08:04 > 0:08:07- Oh!- And they were like, "Oh, do it, Mummy!"
0:08:08 > 0:08:10So I get to wear a crown.
0:08:10 > 0:08:12Do you get a shell bra?
0:08:12 > 0:08:16- You'll have to wait and see. - It's exciting, isn't it? - I'll come back and talk about it.
0:08:17 > 0:08:20There's a good action toy in your future.
0:08:20 > 0:08:22But I wanted to have some fun, you know.
0:08:22 > 0:08:23But now, talking of directors,
0:08:23 > 0:08:26Sofia Coppola - obviously, she is one of the auteurs
0:08:26 > 0:08:29- you were talking about.- She is. - And she's directed your latest film,
0:08:29 > 0:08:31The Beguiled. It's out later in summer.
0:08:31 > 0:08:34- It actually opens here on the 14th of July.- Mm-hm.
0:08:34 > 0:08:36So, it's set in the civil war
0:08:36 > 0:08:40and it's a very female-led story - am I right?
0:08:40 > 0:08:42Yes, and the great thing about The Beguiled, also,
0:08:42 > 0:08:44is that it's a female director. I mean, there's five...
0:08:44 > 0:08:47There's young children in it, young girls,
0:08:47 > 0:08:51and then there's Kirsten Dunst, myself and Elle Fanning.
0:08:51 > 0:08:54I play the woman who runs the...
0:08:54 > 0:08:56Well, it's an orphanage, but it's more...
0:08:56 > 0:09:00Because it's the civil war, you're not sure, but it's a school.
0:09:00 > 0:09:03And then the things that happen,
0:09:03 > 0:09:06and then Kirsten plays a governess at the school with me,
0:09:06 > 0:09:09and we run the school and have the young girls who live there.
0:09:09 > 0:09:14- And then there's one man, Colin Farrell.- Wow!
0:09:14 > 0:09:15Yeah, he's a darling.
0:09:15 > 0:09:16Popular choice.
0:09:17 > 0:09:19We've got a clip from The Beguiled.
0:09:19 > 0:09:23- This is you, as the... How...? Headmistress?- Yeah.
0:09:23 > 0:09:26Yeah, there we go - headmistress.
0:09:26 > 0:09:30Yeah, explaining the house rules to a very sleepy Colin Farrell.
0:09:30 > 0:09:32- Is your leg paining you?- Some.
0:09:34 > 0:09:38- Well, I hear numbness would be more grave.- Indeed.
0:09:38 > 0:09:40There's some brandy if you wish.
0:09:41 > 0:09:42Now, that would be a pleasure.
0:09:42 > 0:09:45It's not being offered for your pleasure - only for your comfort.
0:09:47 > 0:09:49- Yes, ma'am.- I must remind you,
0:09:49 > 0:09:52you are not a guest here. You are a most unwelcome visitor
0:09:52 > 0:09:54and we do not propose to entertain you.
0:09:54 > 0:09:57I wouldn't expect it, ma'am.
0:09:57 > 0:09:59Although you'll find I'm easily amused.
0:10:05 > 0:10:08- I see trouble ahead.- Yes!
0:10:10 > 0:10:12Colin Farrell is such good casting for that character.
0:10:12 > 0:10:16The weirdest thing is, Colin and I are in two films together.
0:10:16 > 0:10:19We did two films back-to-back. We did The Killing Of A Sacred Deer,
0:10:19 > 0:10:23a nice, light... Another light affair.
0:10:23 > 0:10:26- That's at Cannes, as well. - That's the same guy who directed
0:10:26 > 0:10:28- The Lobster.- The Lobster. - Did anyone see The Lobster?
0:10:28 > 0:10:30- Oh, that was great. - I love that film.- Yes.
0:10:30 > 0:10:32Is it like The Lobster?
0:10:32 > 0:10:34Er, it's weird.
0:10:36 > 0:10:38- Good. We like weird. - Yeah, it's really weird.
0:10:38 > 0:10:42- I love weird.- But, now, you worked with Colin Farrell in this film,
0:10:42 > 0:10:46like...a lot. I mean, there was one scene -
0:10:46 > 0:10:49you filmed it more than I felt necessary.
0:10:51 > 0:10:53- What?- Are you talking about the sponge bath, Graham?
0:10:53 > 0:10:57- Yes, Nicole, I am.- Of course he is.
0:10:57 > 0:11:01Yes. So, the chance... How long did you film the sponge bath for?
0:11:01 > 0:11:02About a day.
0:11:05 > 0:11:09- I had to give him a sponge bath for a day.- OK.- Yeah.
0:11:09 > 0:11:11My husband's on this show - can we move off this now?
0:11:15 > 0:11:17That isn't awkward, is it?
0:11:17 > 0:11:19I guess it's always a bit awkward.
0:11:19 > 0:11:23- Well, considering what we did in Sacred Deer, that was nothing.- OK.
0:11:25 > 0:11:28- Maybe we SHOULD move on. - Let's move off the whole thing.
0:11:28 > 0:11:30Alan, what is the thing you do...
0:11:30 > 0:11:32You google people before you act with them?
0:11:33 > 0:11:36I google people naked.
0:11:36 > 0:11:38- No!- I do.
0:11:38 > 0:11:42I just... I feel like, you know, all that information's out there.
0:11:42 > 0:11:45You're going to meet a new person and you're going to...
0:11:45 > 0:11:48If you don't know them, I think, "Google them and see..."
0:11:48 > 0:11:51And then I also do Google images
0:11:51 > 0:11:53and put "naked" at the end of their name
0:11:53 > 0:11:55and just see if there's anything out there,
0:11:55 > 0:11:58cos if you're going to do sex scenes with them, you want to get a little heads up.
0:12:05 > 0:12:07It's so different than looking for directors.
0:12:08 > 0:12:11- You're just going to google them naked.- Google my director naked!
0:12:11 > 0:12:16If it's out there, if it's on the interweb and it's there,
0:12:16 > 0:12:18- you might as well have a look.- Yeah.
0:12:20 > 0:12:24Now, it's time for our first musical performance of the evening.
0:12:24 > 0:12:28Now, is this...? This is the intro I was planning.
0:12:28 > 0:12:30Can you... That's all accurate, isn't it?
0:12:30 > 0:12:33- Maybe more than that. - More than that?
0:12:33 > 0:12:36- Oh, no. OK.- No, I'll go with more. - Yeah.
0:12:36 > 0:12:39- OK, OK.- I think it was way more than four.- OK.
0:12:40 > 0:12:43He's won much more than four Grammy Awards...
0:12:43 > 0:12:45LAUGHTER
0:12:45 > 0:12:49..and is one of... No, the MOST successful American musician.
0:12:49 > 0:12:52He's not an American, but in America.
0:12:52 > 0:12:55Here performing a special version of The Fighter
0:12:55 > 0:12:58with our very own Melanie C, it is Mr Keith Urban!
0:12:58 > 0:13:01CHEERING
0:13:17 > 0:13:19# I know he hurt you
0:13:19 > 0:13:21# Made you scared of love
0:13:21 > 0:13:23# Too scared to love

0:13:27 > 0:13:29# Cos your precious heart
0:13:29 > 0:13:31# Is a precious heart
0:13:31 > 0:13:33# He didn't know what he had

0:16:10 > 0:16:13CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:16:16 > 0:16:17Mel C!
0:16:18 > 0:16:22Keith Urban and Melanie C! Beautiful! Come on over, Keith.
0:16:22 > 0:16:27- Great job, sir.- Thank you. - Great job! Keith Urban!
0:16:27 > 0:16:29This is Alan, and I believe you know Nicole Kidman.
0:16:29 > 0:16:31How are you, man? Good to meet you.
0:16:31 > 0:16:35Pop yourself in there beside your lady wife. Very good.
0:16:36 > 0:16:38And a big thank you to Melanie C, as well.
0:16:38 > 0:16:41Thank you very much, Melanie C. Beautiful.
0:16:41 > 0:16:43CHEERING AND APPLAUSE Lovely!
0:16:46 > 0:16:48- Thank you very, very much for doing that.- Thank you.
0:16:48 > 0:16:50That was very good.
0:16:50 > 0:16:52What did you think, Nicole?
0:16:52 > 0:16:55- Fantastic!- Was that the best you've heard him sing it?
0:16:55 > 0:16:57- Yes!- It was good, wasn't it?
0:16:59 > 0:17:02Now, that is the current single off your album Ripcord,
0:17:02 > 0:17:04- which is out now.- Yes. - CHEERING
0:17:06 > 0:17:08- Do your fans have a name? - Such a lively bunch!
0:17:08 > 0:17:10Are they Urbanites, or...?
0:17:10 > 0:17:12AUDIENCE MEMBERS SHOUT OUT
0:17:12 > 0:17:13What? They have their own names.
0:17:15 > 0:17:18- Sorry, what are you?- Urban Army.
0:17:18 > 0:17:20- Urban Army!- The Urban Army.
0:17:20 > 0:17:23- Very aggressive!- It does sound...
0:17:23 > 0:17:25It sounds quite intimidating.
0:17:25 > 0:17:27Be very careful - the Urban Army are in.
0:17:29 > 0:17:32- They're very nice fans. Very good fans.- Thank you.
0:17:32 > 0:17:35Yes, lovely. And, er... Now, I've heard you talk in interviews
0:17:35 > 0:17:38about how your manager influenced your music and everything
0:17:38 > 0:17:42but that song in particular sort of references Nicole, doesn't it?
0:17:42 > 0:17:45Well, it... Yeah. The theme of the song
0:17:45 > 0:17:49was really early in our relationship,
0:17:49 > 0:17:53just wanting to reassure her that I'm a safe place to be -
0:17:53 > 0:17:55I'll take care of her, you know? That's really what the song's about.
0:17:55 > 0:17:57- Aw!- Oh, come on!
0:17:57 > 0:18:01Turned into a Hallmark crowd like that!
0:18:01 > 0:18:03Look - happy people!
0:18:05 > 0:18:07Where did you meet?
0:18:07 > 0:18:11In Los Angeles at this event called G'day LA.
0:18:12 > 0:18:15I'm not making this up! These are true names.
0:18:15 > 0:18:18I think we might have a picture of you meeting.
0:18:18 > 0:18:21This is the day you met. There you are.
0:18:21 > 0:18:24And was it kind of... Was it, like, "G'day, LA"?
0:18:24 > 0:18:27Was it sort of... Was it pa-ping?
0:18:27 > 0:18:31Well, we have discrepancies over that.
0:18:31 > 0:18:32That's funny!
0:18:34 > 0:18:37It's going to become The Newlyweds here in a minute.
0:18:37 > 0:18:39He brought it up. I didn't...
0:18:39 > 0:18:42And, yeah, well, we didn't sort of...
0:18:42 > 0:18:45I was about to say "hook up", but that was the wrong...
0:18:45 > 0:18:49He didn't call me for about three, four months.
0:18:49 > 0:18:52Four months, I say. He says different, but anyway...
0:18:52 > 0:18:54- I was scared.- Aw!
0:18:54 > 0:18:58I was, because.. No, seriously, someone gives me Nic's number...
0:18:58 > 0:19:00You didn't get it from her?
0:19:00 > 0:19:02- No!- Who got...? Your publicist or something?- Alan!
0:19:05 > 0:19:07LAUGHTER DROWNS SPEECH
0:19:07 > 0:19:10- Someone passed it to you in a dark alley?- Anyway...
0:19:12 > 0:19:14He paid good money for that number.
0:19:15 > 0:19:18- 12 years later, two babies later... - Yay!
0:19:18 > 0:19:21CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:19:25 > 0:19:29Now, the last time you were here, Nicole, we enjoyed some of
0:19:29 > 0:19:32your early modelling work on the late, lamented Dolly Magazine.
0:19:32 > 0:19:34Thank you, Graham.
0:19:34 > 0:19:37No, beautiful, finely judged work. Er...
0:19:39 > 0:19:41I was shocked that you found them.
0:19:41 > 0:19:43- Don't worry - we're not showing them again.- Oh, good.
0:19:43 > 0:19:44There is others.
0:19:44 > 0:19:48- There are some lovely pictures of Keith, as an...- Oh!
0:19:48 > 0:19:53..emerging bright star on the Australian music scene.
0:19:53 > 0:19:55Here you are in Tamworth.
0:19:57 > 0:20:00- Oh!- That's cute!
0:20:00 > 0:20:03- That is adorable.- You know what's really criminal about that?
0:20:03 > 0:20:04Actually, that was last Tuesday!
0:20:06 > 0:20:09- What's criminal is how tight your jeans are.- I know.
0:20:13 > 0:20:15Yeah, the population of Tamworth's growing.
0:20:16 > 0:20:19- That's not all.- The elevation!
0:20:21 > 0:20:25I wouldn't recognise you in that picture, but then there's another picture.
0:20:25 > 0:20:27I only know this is you because it says it's you.
0:20:27 > 0:20:29This is Keith Urban.
0:20:29 > 0:20:30I mean, check that out.
0:20:31 > 0:20:35- That's unbelievable.- Yeah, yeah.
0:20:35 > 0:20:36My love!
0:20:38 > 0:20:40In his yearbook it would have said,
0:20:40 > 0:20:42"Boy least likely to marry Nicole Kidman."
0:20:45 > 0:20:47Not until you see MY yearbook.
0:20:47 > 0:20:49- We need yours.- Huh?
0:20:49 > 0:20:51We need Nic's picture next.
0:20:51 > 0:20:54No, we've had Nicole in all her glory.
0:20:54 > 0:20:57No more. Come on. Alan, Alan! We need Alan.
0:20:57 > 0:21:00- OK, well, Alan.- Uh-oh! - No, it's in your book.
0:21:00 > 0:21:04There has to be a story or an explanation to this.
0:21:04 > 0:21:07Around the same time as Keith was wearing very tight jeans...
0:21:07 > 0:21:10- Uh-oh. What was I wearing?- ..you were on a school trip to Germany...
0:21:10 > 0:21:12- Ugh!- ..without jeans.
0:21:19 > 0:21:23- The thing is... - Was that just the look?
0:21:23 > 0:21:27- We were all doing it in the '70s. - What I love about this is,
0:21:27 > 0:21:29- he's still a fan of a tidy sock. - Good legs!
0:21:30 > 0:21:35The thing is, a girl who was at school, was on that school trip,
0:21:35 > 0:21:38sent it to me via Twitter and I was like, "Ah-ha-ha."
0:21:38 > 0:21:40And then I thought, "Why DID I have no trousers on?"
0:21:42 > 0:21:44I must have taken them off for a bet. I don't know.
0:21:44 > 0:21:46But it's a good look.
0:21:46 > 0:21:48You do seem very calm about it.
0:21:48 > 0:21:51Kind of, "Yeah, I'm rocking a short jumper dress."
0:21:51 > 0:21:53"I've got no trousers on. Deal with it".
0:21:53 > 0:21:56I have this theory - most men have excellent legs.
0:21:56 > 0:22:00- People say that.- Yeah, right? - It's not... I think...
0:22:00 > 0:22:04What I think is interesting is that a lot of men have body parts...
0:22:04 > 0:22:06Not body parts, but bits of their bodies that women desire.
0:22:06 > 0:22:10Like slim hips, long eyelashes.
0:22:10 > 0:22:14So I think women think that all men have better things
0:22:14 > 0:22:17that they want than them. It's not true.
0:22:17 > 0:22:19I've seen a lot of naked men - I know.
0:22:22 > 0:22:23Thank you.
0:22:25 > 0:22:27Now, talking about the Urban Army, your fans.
0:22:27 > 0:22:30Well, Sunday, Faith and...
0:22:30 > 0:22:33- We're in that army, too.- No. - Yeah, yeah.
0:22:33 > 0:22:37So, they come to your concerts and they demonstrate
0:22:37 > 0:22:39their love in different ways.
0:22:39 > 0:22:42And there was a woman who wanted you to sign HER.
0:22:42 > 0:22:43Oh! No.
0:22:43 > 0:22:48It was years ago - I was doing a concert in this big venue,
0:22:48 > 0:22:52and somebody in the crowd yelled out, "Will you sign my leg?"
0:22:52 > 0:22:55And I thought, "This will be a good moment," you know.
0:22:55 > 0:22:59So I'm like, "Yeah, come on up here," you know, cos I thought, "This'll be great."
0:22:59 > 0:23:01This was years before I met Nic, and I thought this would make
0:23:01 > 0:23:03a great moment on stage.
0:23:03 > 0:23:05And so she disappeared for a minute.
0:23:05 > 0:23:06I couldn't see her head.
0:23:06 > 0:23:08Next minute, she reappeared and then lobbed this
0:23:08 > 0:23:13prosthetic leg onto the stage, which landed with a thud.
0:23:13 > 0:23:15So I...
0:23:15 > 0:23:18I picked it up and signed it and then I thought,
0:23:18 > 0:23:21"What's the correct prosthetic-leg-returning etiquette?"
0:23:21 > 0:23:24Do you just...? Do you crowd-surf it?
0:23:24 > 0:23:27Do you say, "Hop up here"? I mean...
0:23:28 > 0:23:32- Insane.- They crowd-surfed it back and she attached it
0:23:32 > 0:23:36- and was like, "Yeah!"- Yay! - Unbelievable!
0:23:36 > 0:23:40Oddly, the title of your book, Alan, which is out now,
0:23:40 > 0:23:43My Life Stories And Pictures, You've Gotta Get Bigger Dreams.
0:23:43 > 0:23:46This comes from a sort of fan story?
0:23:46 > 0:23:48Well, sort of. Well, it's like someone... It's our friend -
0:23:48 > 0:23:51our mutual friend, very dear old friend, Eddie -
0:23:51 > 0:23:54- is a massive fan of Oprah. - Not that old, we should say!
0:23:54 > 0:23:56- Well...- He will be watching.
0:23:56 > 0:23:57He will. Sorry, Eddie.
0:23:57 > 0:24:01But he's a massive fan of Oprah, as we all know.
0:24:01 > 0:24:02Well, you don't know, but he is.
0:24:02 > 0:24:06And really a mega fan.
0:24:06 > 0:24:09So the... So the book's called that because a story in the book
0:24:09 > 0:24:11is the title of that.
0:24:11 > 0:24:15So what happened was, I was invited to this big event
0:24:15 > 0:24:18where Oprah was getting honoured, getting an award.
0:24:18 > 0:24:20So I thought, "I've got to take Eddie as my date,"
0:24:20 > 0:24:22so I did, and we got there and he was just, like, frenzied.
0:24:22 > 0:24:25"I want to get a photo with Oprah, I want to get a photo with Oprah."
0:24:25 > 0:24:28I was like, "That might not happen, Eddie, and I'm not going to guarantee it.
0:24:28 > 0:24:31"And I'm not going to be..." Cos I thought, if that does happen,
0:24:31 > 0:24:33I'd have to go and say, "Oprah, my friend Eddie wants..."
0:24:33 > 0:24:35But I'm not going to do that, you know.
0:24:35 > 0:24:38"It might happen but just..." Anyway, I said,
0:24:38 > 0:24:42"You know how when people come up to me in bars and we're having dinner
0:24:42 > 0:24:44"and they ask for a photo and how pissed off you get
0:24:44 > 0:24:46"about that on my behalf?"
0:24:46 > 0:24:47He went, "I see your point.
0:24:47 > 0:24:50"I still want a photograph."
0:24:50 > 0:24:53So we're at this thing and there's a big dinner
0:24:53 > 0:24:55and it was, like, crazy.
0:24:55 > 0:24:57Oprah was at this central big table
0:24:57 > 0:24:59with, like, Stephen Spielberg and...
0:24:59 > 0:25:00Jesus and everybody. And we...
0:25:02 > 0:25:04We were all at these tables going around.
0:25:04 > 0:25:08We were like satellites going around Oprah.
0:25:08 > 0:25:10And Barbara Walters was hosting the thing.
0:25:10 > 0:25:14And she went, "And here's Itzhak Perlman." He's...
0:25:14 > 0:25:16"And here's Jessye Norman." She's singing away.
0:25:16 > 0:25:18And it's just, like, full on.
0:25:18 > 0:25:21And then at one point she goes, "And now we're going to have a break.
0:25:21 > 0:25:24"And after the break, Oprah."
0:25:24 > 0:25:26And we're like, "Oh, my God."
0:25:26 > 0:25:29And so Gayle, Oprah's friend, came over to say hello to us.
0:25:29 > 0:25:34And we were at this kind of Siberia-like table.
0:25:34 > 0:25:37We were kind of near the loos and I could see Eddie a bit like...
0:25:37 > 0:25:41Gayle came over, so that was like the nearness of Gayle,
0:25:41 > 0:25:42cos she's Oprah's best friend.
0:25:42 > 0:25:45And then she turned round to talk to someone and Eddie said...
0:25:45 > 0:25:46Her bum was right there and Eddie said,
0:25:46 > 0:25:48"Take a picture, take a picture."
0:25:50 > 0:25:53So I took a picture of Gayle's bum and Eddie's head.
0:25:53 > 0:25:56And then we saw Oprah way over there.
0:25:56 > 0:25:59He said, "Take a picture of Oprah far away and me in a thing."
0:25:59 > 0:26:01So I had this camera and I was trying to zoom it in.
0:26:01 > 0:26:03It wasn't my camera. It was my husband Grant's,
0:26:03 > 0:26:05so I was a little unused to it. I was trying to zoom.
0:26:05 > 0:26:08And I got her in focus and then suddenly she stood up.
0:26:08 > 0:26:09I was like, "Fuck you, Oprah."
0:26:11 > 0:26:13She stood up and started... And I was like, "Oh, Christ!"
0:26:13 > 0:26:15And then I realised she was coming towards us
0:26:15 > 0:26:17because she was going to the loo.
0:26:17 > 0:26:21And I said, "Eddie, she's coming. She's going to come right by here.
0:26:21 > 0:26:23"She's going to totally come. "This moment could happen."
0:26:23 > 0:26:25And so I'm trying to unzoom the thing to get it back.
0:26:25 > 0:26:27And he's freaking out. I can feel his energy -
0:26:27 > 0:26:29he's like a tingly little thing.
0:26:29 > 0:26:32And as Eddie stands up and he blocks her path,
0:26:32 > 0:26:34and I'm trying to fiddle the thing.
0:26:34 > 0:26:37And I hear him, in this little choirboy voice going,
0:26:37 > 0:26:40"Oprah, may I have a photo with you?
0:26:41 > 0:26:43"It would be my dream."
0:26:44 > 0:26:47Oprah went, "You gotta get bigger dreams."
0:26:52 > 0:26:54So, then I...
0:26:54 > 0:26:56I snapped the picture.
0:26:56 > 0:26:57I snapped the picture,
0:26:57 > 0:27:00and it is one of the worst pictures I've ever taken.
0:27:00 > 0:27:02- I'm sure you have it for us all to see.- We do.
0:27:02 > 0:27:06This is the picture that Eddie dreamed of getting.
0:27:12 > 0:27:15But I actually think it's... I actually think it's perfect,
0:27:15 > 0:27:18because it's absolutely what that moment was like.
0:27:18 > 0:27:23Oprah is a goddess and she can only be half present.
0:27:23 > 0:27:24Eddie was a bloody mess.
0:27:26 > 0:27:28Oh, dear! But it's a great book.
0:27:28 > 0:27:30Lots of really good stories and lots of...
0:27:30 > 0:27:34- And you took all the photographs? - It's a book of photos and stories - I took them all, yeah.
0:27:34 > 0:27:36And there's some really eccentric pictures.
0:27:36 > 0:27:39This is a woman in the Ritz Carlton.
0:27:39 > 0:27:41She was a lady I met in a bar in Boston in a hotel.
0:27:41 > 0:27:45Remember when you were little and you used to make puppets with your
0:27:45 > 0:27:47mum's tights and you stuffed them with newspapers?
0:27:47 > 0:27:49That was what I think her legs looked like.
0:27:51 > 0:27:54Did you ask permission? "Can I take a picture of your funny legs?"
0:27:54 > 0:27:58Yes, I did. She was drunk at the time, so it didn't matter.
0:27:59 > 0:28:00And that's Honey, my dead dog.
0:28:00 > 0:28:04- Aw!- Living in the picture, everyone, all right?
0:28:04 > 0:28:08- Was he?- What?- Honey was alive then? Yeah.
0:28:08 > 0:28:11This wasn't a beautiful parting gesture.
0:28:12 > 0:28:14"I'll just take this one last thing.
0:28:14 > 0:28:17"One last snap of her feet, Honey!"
0:28:17 > 0:28:21And we must mention quickly, you've got a new television show.
0:28:21 > 0:28:25- I do, yes.- Yes.- I'm going to be an action hero.
0:28:25 > 0:28:27- Isn't it crazy?- It is! It's great, though.
0:28:27 > 0:28:31It's proper big CBS. Will it be...? Presumably someone here will buy it.
0:28:31 > 0:28:34I hope so, yeah, I'm sure. I don't think they're guaranteed, but...
0:28:34 > 0:28:36- What is it?- It's called Instinct.
0:28:37 > 0:28:39And I play...
0:28:39 > 0:28:41LAUGHTER
0:28:41 > 0:28:43He really is the star of it.
0:28:43 > 0:28:46He's not just pivotal - it is about him.
0:28:46 > 0:28:50I play this professor of behavioural analysis at Penn State University
0:28:50 > 0:28:53and he has idiosyncratic teaching methods.
0:28:53 > 0:28:56A little bit of an oddball.
0:28:56 > 0:29:00Imagine! And then we discover that not only am I a professor,
0:29:00 > 0:29:02- I used to be a CIA agent.- No!
0:29:02 > 0:29:05- Naturally!- Get out of town! - Don't give it all away.
0:29:05 > 0:29:08You find out in the first five minutes.
0:29:09 > 0:29:15So I'm drawn back into the field and my CIA past obviously helps...
0:29:15 > 0:29:17And also, I'm gay and I have a husband in it
0:29:17 > 0:29:20and we're trying to adopt a child, and it's the first network drama
0:29:20 > 0:29:23in America to have a gay character as the leading role.
0:29:23 > 0:29:25- Oh, wow! Well done, you.- Finally!
0:29:25 > 0:29:28Congratulations. Brilliant!
0:29:28 > 0:29:30APPLAUSE DROWNS SPEECH
0:29:30 > 0:29:34Now, Nicole, am I allowed to say that someone on the couch - you -
0:29:34 > 0:29:37you've got one of those birthdays coming up.
0:29:37 > 0:29:40- You are allowed, yes.- Next month? - Yeah.
0:29:40 > 0:29:44- We're saying the number, aren't we? - Ha-ha!
0:29:44 > 0:29:47If I looked like you, I'd be SCREAMING the number.
0:29:47 > 0:29:50Yeah, no, no, I'm totally... I'm going to be 50, and I'm so excited.
0:29:50 > 0:29:53CHEERING Wow.
0:29:57 > 0:29:58We don't want to spoil any surprises,
0:29:58 > 0:30:00but anything good planned?
0:30:01 > 0:30:03Yes, absolutely.
0:30:03 > 0:30:05I've got a lot of good stuff planned, but I can't mention it.
0:30:05 > 0:30:07Are you not involved in it at all?
0:30:07 > 0:30:09You're just trusting him?
0:30:09 > 0:30:10I'm not a big birthday person.
0:30:10 > 0:30:13She's not good with surprises at all.
0:30:13 > 0:30:18No, I actually break out in a cold sore if I have a surprise.
0:30:18 > 0:30:21And that plus birthday is really bad.
0:30:21 > 0:30:25Since I was little, yeah, I get cold sores.
0:30:25 > 0:30:27Gosh. I had...
0:30:27 > 0:30:30But I did have a surprise party once when I was 30,
0:30:30 > 0:30:34and it was so shocking to me because people had come from overseas and
0:30:34 > 0:30:37they'd set it all up and I sort of walked in and I broke out
0:30:37 > 0:30:40- in a cold sore.- Like, immediately, a cold sore comes out?
0:30:40 > 0:30:42On the spot. Yeah.
0:30:42 > 0:30:44It was so...
0:30:44 > 0:30:46Like, my whole body couldn't understand.
0:30:46 > 0:30:50Cos, actually, I'd been on the phone to my mother - here's why I did -
0:30:50 > 0:30:52I said "Dad, can you get my mum?"
0:30:52 > 0:30:55He was like, "Oh, no, she's in the garden." Right.
0:30:55 > 0:30:59And then I walked into the room and my mum was there
0:30:59 > 0:31:03and I'd called Australia, and this was in Montana and I'm like...
0:31:03 > 0:31:04"Whoa!"
0:31:05 > 0:31:08- Then I broke out in a cold sore. - Cold sore, of course!
0:31:08 > 0:31:10The night was awful.
0:31:10 > 0:31:14I was like "I've got to go! I feel revolting! I got to go home."
0:31:14 > 0:31:17"No photographs!"
0:31:17 > 0:31:19The other thing with a surprise party... I mean,
0:31:19 > 0:31:23I'm sure some people love a surprise party. But, as a girl,
0:31:23 > 0:31:27you kind of want to be dressed and ready for it.
0:31:27 > 0:31:30You don't want to be in your sweat pants and a T-shirt
0:31:30 > 0:31:36and everyone else is all dressed up and you've got a cold sore and...
0:31:36 > 0:31:38- But, Keith, the 40th... - It just doesn't go well.
0:31:38 > 0:31:42- I've got them right here. - Come in, everyone.
0:31:45 > 0:31:48But the 40th - was that a surprise, what you did for the 40th?
0:31:48 > 0:31:49That sounded so lovely.
0:31:49 > 0:31:52Yeah. I lit off a tonne of fireworks.
0:31:52 > 0:31:55- Well,- I- didn't do it, but...- You must have broken out in all sorts of
0:31:55 > 0:31:58things if you didn't know those were coming.
0:31:58 > 0:32:00..about this, and with the...
0:32:00 > 0:32:02Yeah, he did fireworks on my 40th,
0:32:02 > 0:32:04which was amazing.
0:32:04 > 0:32:07- For just the two of you?- Yeah. - I think that's amazing.
0:32:07 > 0:32:10There were two of you and you set fireworks off suddenly?
0:32:10 > 0:32:13Yeah, I... Well, she was shooting a film -
0:32:13 > 0:32:15Australia, the Baz Luhrmann film -
0:32:15 > 0:32:17and we were in this very small town in Australia
0:32:17 > 0:32:21and I miraculously found some company nearby that did fireworks
0:32:21 > 0:32:24and said, "Bring everything you have. Just bring everything."
0:32:24 > 0:32:28- And there was a little mountaintop or something.- Yeah.
0:32:28 > 0:32:31And I had a couch taken up there, dropped off there,
0:32:31 > 0:32:33and we drove up there and we got out of the car and I said,
0:32:33 > 0:32:36"Look, there's a couch over here." She's like, "A couch?"
0:32:36 > 0:32:40And we sat down and then all these fireworks started going off.
0:32:40 > 0:32:41You win. You win.
0:32:43 > 0:32:46- That's...- Yeah, that was... - ..very good.
0:32:48 > 0:32:51Nicole, you've got another great TV show returning to BBC Two
0:32:51 > 0:32:53later this year, Jane Campion's Top Of The Lake.
0:32:53 > 0:32:55This one is called China girl.
0:32:55 > 0:32:57This is... I have a supporting role in this.
0:32:57 > 0:33:01This is Lizzie Moss's series that she started with Jane.
0:33:01 > 0:33:05And I don't know if anyone saw the first series - it was fantastic.
0:33:05 > 0:33:08CHEERING AND APPLAUSE It's so good. And I've seen some of it -
0:33:08 > 0:33:09you're really good in it.
0:33:09 > 0:33:12- You're fantastic.- I'm very different in it.- You are,
0:33:12 > 0:33:15- but really great.- But, as an actor, and I'm sure Alan's...
0:33:15 > 0:33:19To be able to play so many different roles at this stage
0:33:19 > 0:33:22in my life is fantastic. Something like Big Little Lies -
0:33:22 > 0:33:24Reese and I...
0:33:24 > 0:33:26APPLAUSE Yeah, people love that show.
0:33:27 > 0:33:31That came out of frustration because we were like,
0:33:31 > 0:33:34"We're not being offered complicated, interesting roles
0:33:34 > 0:33:38"right now, so we need to go and do it ourselves."
0:33:38 > 0:33:41And then we were able to offer our friends roles.
0:33:41 > 0:33:46Laura Dern and Shailene Woodley and all of the women that are in it
0:33:46 > 0:33:48are friends of ours.
0:33:48 > 0:33:51So we were able to generate work not just for ourselves but for our
0:33:51 > 0:33:53friends, and that felt really cool.
0:33:53 > 0:33:55Because it's Jane Campion...
0:33:55 > 0:33:56No, this was Big Little Lies.
0:33:56 > 0:33:58- No, I know, but Top Of The Lake... - Sorry, right.
0:33:58 > 0:34:00Top Of The Lake was Jane Campion.
0:34:00 > 0:34:03It is always that embarrassing thing where you don't want to assume
0:34:03 > 0:34:06- that Australian people know each other...- Right.- ..just because
0:34:06 > 0:34:10they're from Australia, but you have known her for donkey's years.
0:34:10 > 0:34:15- Jane discovered me in a drama school when I was 14 years old.- Wow!
0:34:15 > 0:34:19And she cast me in her student film at the time.
0:34:19 > 0:34:23And we have a friendship, you know, and I'm now 50,
0:34:23 > 0:34:25so, I mean, that many years.
0:34:25 > 0:34:28And that, to me, is the great thing about this industry,
0:34:28 > 0:34:31is when you can have that journey together.
0:34:31 > 0:34:34You nearly didn't, because didn't you not do that student film?
0:34:34 > 0:34:36I didn't do the student film, because...
0:34:36 > 0:34:39I very much regret it.
0:34:39 > 0:34:42But I didn't do it, cos she wanted me to wear a shower cap
0:34:42 > 0:34:45and kiss a girl, and I was 14 at the time and I was like,
0:34:45 > 0:34:48"No, no, I want to kiss a boy I want to have nice hair."
0:34:48 > 0:34:51Which was worse - the shower cap, or kissing the girl?
0:34:52 > 0:34:54- I'd say the shower cap. - The shower cap!
0:34:56 > 0:34:57Now, I'd be like, "Yes, please!
0:34:57 > 0:35:00"I'll kiss a girl, I'll wear a shower cap."
0:35:00 > 0:35:03I'd be showing you clips of it now, so you're glad you didn't do it.
0:35:03 > 0:35:05- It's a fantastic film. Are you kidding?- Oh, is it?
0:35:05 > 0:35:07- Oh, I wish I was in it.- Do we know anyone who was in it?
0:35:07 > 0:35:10- Who played you?- Er... - There you go, see?
0:35:10 > 0:35:13Doesn't matter, Alan.
0:35:13 > 0:35:18A really good Australian actress, who...
0:35:18 > 0:35:19I don't know.
0:35:21 > 0:35:24They're really good in Australia - they're excellent.
0:35:24 > 0:35:27They won't be throwing things at the television right now.
0:35:27 > 0:35:30- It's a really good actress.- We'll cut this bit out - don't worry.
0:35:33 > 0:35:36We'll just dub in her name.
0:35:36 > 0:35:38In my voice.
0:35:38 > 0:35:39"Mary Smith."
0:35:42 > 0:35:47Anyway, for any trivia, the film is called A Girl's Own Story,
0:35:47 > 0:35:50and it's part of her film-school work that Jane had.
0:35:50 > 0:35:53She made some amazing film-school films.
0:35:53 > 0:35:56Let's have a clip of Top Of The Lake,
0:35:56 > 0:35:59and this is you and Elisabeth Moss having a confrontation. So good!
0:36:00 > 0:36:01Hi, there.
0:36:02 > 0:36:03I'm just leaving.
0:36:06 > 0:36:09I, er, got stood up by Mary at the Sushi Train.
0:36:09 > 0:36:11You haven't heard from her, have you?
0:36:11 > 0:36:15- Sorry, no.- Pike said that she stayed with you.
0:36:15 > 0:36:18Thanks for that. It's little a bit awkward right now,
0:36:18 > 0:36:20so all hands on deck, right?
0:36:20 > 0:36:22She's my daughter, too.
0:36:25 > 0:36:26You think that, do you?
0:36:27 > 0:36:28Yes.
0:36:32 > 0:36:35Before she was born, while she was unconscious...
0:36:35 > 0:36:37- Julia!- What? Come on!
0:36:37 > 0:36:39I'm grateful - of course I am -
0:36:39 > 0:36:41but I'm the one who cared for her
0:36:41 > 0:36:43every single day, every single night,
0:36:43 > 0:36:45since she was a baby, so...
0:36:48 > 0:36:49Her? Nine months.
0:36:49 > 0:36:52- That's enough.- What? That's enough?
0:36:52 > 0:36:53I am her mother.
0:36:57 > 0:36:58Not two.
0:36:58 > 0:37:00Ooh, so good!
0:37:00 > 0:37:02Excellent.
0:37:04 > 0:37:07Right, it's time to meet my final guest.
0:37:07 > 0:37:11This lady is a nine-time Grammy Award winner - awkward! -

0:41:31 > 0:41:36- I think I'm... Am I here? - That's traditional. There you go.
0:41:36 > 0:41:41Often when the musician comes over, I introduce the musician to the...
0:41:41 > 0:41:44- But you know everyone. - We're like neighbours.
0:41:44 > 0:41:46Genuinely, like, a few doors down.
0:41:46 > 0:41:48- Like a mile away from each other. - Yeah.- Yeah.
0:41:48 > 0:41:51- We just went on a girls' trip. - Yes, we did.
0:41:51 > 0:41:54- Which was fantastic.- It was awesome. - I didn't want to leave.
0:41:54 > 0:41:57There were seven of us, who are all friends, in Nashville,
0:41:57 > 0:42:01all women, and we all went away, for just two nights.
0:42:01 > 0:42:03Only two nights. None of us wanted to leave.
0:42:03 > 0:42:05- It was like leaving camp. - "Oh, we can't make it."
0:42:05 > 0:42:08We all went and we just had the best time.
0:42:08 > 0:42:10- Where did you go? - We went to the Bahamas.
0:42:10 > 0:42:14- Yes.- For two nights? Oh, I guess you're nearer.
0:42:14 > 0:42:16From here, that would be quite a long way.
0:42:17 > 0:42:20My geography is not great.
0:42:20 > 0:42:21We should mention, by the way,
0:42:21 > 0:42:24that is from the album Be Myself, which is out now.

0:42:34 > 0:42:36And, Alan, you have an odd connection.
0:42:36 > 0:42:37Yes. So...
0:42:39 > 0:42:42Keep it clean, keep it clean.
0:42:42 > 0:42:44Totally.
0:42:44 > 0:42:49My manager, Jason... We were at a fundraising thing -
0:42:49 > 0:42:51- you know Jason Weinberg?- Yeah.
0:42:51 > 0:42:55And there was a prize you could win in the auction thing
0:42:55 > 0:42:59that was to sing backing vocals at one of Sheryl's concerts.
0:42:59 > 0:43:00I was with Jason. I can't...
0:43:00 > 0:43:06But anyway, bought me the prize of being Sheryl's backup vocalist.
0:43:06 > 0:43:08- Have you done it?- No.- No!
0:43:08 > 0:43:11But I'm getting ready to play in New York City, so...
0:43:11 > 0:43:13- Oh, you are?- Yes.- We keep trying but we never...
0:43:13 > 0:43:15I have a fantastical outfit I want you to wear.
0:43:15 > 0:43:18Actually, there's no pants, though, with it!
0:43:18 > 0:43:20I'm there! I'm in!
0:43:20 > 0:43:23- OK, yes. The Beacon.- The Beacon? - I'm going to get you the dates.

0:43:29 > 0:43:30Can we do this afterwards?
0:43:32 > 0:43:33Tick-tock!
0:43:35 > 0:43:37Getting diaries out.
0:43:37 > 0:43:40"I'm not sure. Can you do dinner afterwards?"
0:43:40 > 0:43:42"I could maybe make it between..."
0:43:42 > 0:43:45Now, new album, presumably... Are you touring the new album?
0:43:45 > 0:43:47We're trying. We want to do some summer festivals,
0:43:47 > 0:43:50so anyone that's a promoter, knows a promoter, related to a promoter,
0:43:50 > 0:43:53married to a promoter, divorced from a promoter,

0:44:02 > 0:44:04- AUDIENCE MEMBER SHOUTS OUT - Yes, very soon.
0:44:04 > 0:44:06I feel like I'm getting in trouble.
0:44:06 > 0:44:10"No, I never intended to perform here again."
0:44:10 > 0:44:11"That was my last performance."
0:44:11 > 0:44:14- No, you will come back for the Urban Army.- Absolutely.
0:44:14 > 0:44:18- Of course.- Urban Army! I like that.
0:44:18 > 0:44:20They made it slightly menacing.
0:44:20 > 0:44:23Sheryl Crows - what are they called?
0:44:23 > 0:44:26- I don't have an army.- Aw!
0:44:26 > 0:44:28- I know.- Crow's feet?- I feel kind of ripped off.
0:44:28 > 0:44:30What was that? Crow's feet.
0:44:30 > 0:44:36Yeah, the Crow's feet. Actually, most of my audience could qualify.
0:44:37 > 0:44:40Thank you very much for that performance - Sheryl Crow.
0:44:40 > 0:44:42CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:44:44 > 0:44:47Nearly it but, before we go, we do have time for a visit
0:44:47 > 0:44:48to the big red chair. Who is there?
0:44:48 > 0:44:51- Oh, hello. Hi. What's your name? - Wendy.
0:44:51 > 0:44:53Wendy. Lovely, Wendy. What do you do?
0:44:53 > 0:44:55I'm a medical secretary for an orthopaedic surgeon.
0:44:55 > 0:44:58- And where does that happen? - In Guildford. Just outside.
0:44:58 > 0:45:01- In Milford?- Yes.- Milford. Milford.
0:45:01 > 0:45:04- No, Guildford.- Hmm?- Guildford!
0:45:04 > 0:45:06Guildford! Not Milford - Guildford.
0:45:07 > 0:45:10- I say, Guildford!- Got it!
0:45:10 > 0:45:12OK, Wendy, off you go with your story.
0:45:12 > 0:45:15So, when I used to live in Cumbria,
0:45:15 > 0:45:17there are loads of pubs - small market town -
0:45:17 > 0:45:21and we used to go for drinks every Saturday night. Big pub crawl.
0:45:21 > 0:45:25Raced from one pub to the other. Last one in had to buy the drinks.
0:45:25 > 0:45:28So, usual - racing ahead.
0:45:28 > 0:45:30I got to the pub first - really pleased.
0:45:30 > 0:45:33Get to the bar to order the drink, knowing I'm not going to pay for it,
0:45:33 > 0:45:37and I got to the bar and everybody was looking at me and the barman was
0:45:37 > 0:45:41looking, my friends were looking at me and their mouths were agape.
0:45:41 > 0:45:43I was like, "What's the problem?"
0:45:43 > 0:45:45They were all looking down, open-mouthed.
0:45:45 > 0:45:49I looked down and my boob tube had rolled completely down...
0:45:52 > 0:45:54Needless to say, I did get served very quickly.
0:45:56 > 0:46:01Oh, you want me to do it? OK!
0:46:01 > 0:46:03There you go! Wahey!
0:46:03 > 0:46:05- She wanted to be. She asked! - OK. I didn't hear.
0:46:05 > 0:46:08She's fun, is Wendy, isn't she?
0:46:08 > 0:46:11She's wasted as an orthopaedic surgeon's secretary.
0:46:11 > 0:46:14- She needs to get out more.- I wonder if she wears a boob tube to work.
0:46:14 > 0:46:16LAUGHTER DROWNS SPEECH
0:46:16 > 0:46:21I guess running in a boob tube is never a... It's a mistake.
0:46:21 > 0:46:25- One more. One more. Here we go. - Hey, Graham, if he gets pushed, can I push the thing?
0:46:25 > 0:46:28- Yes, of course.- I've always wanted to do that.- Well, stand by.
0:46:28 > 0:46:32- All right, OK. Here we go. What's your name, sir?- Marcel.
0:46:32 > 0:46:35Marcel. How tall are you, Marcel?
0:46:35 > 0:46:39- 180.- What is that in measurements I might understand?
0:46:39 > 0:46:43180 metres. How do you change it to your...?
0:46:43 > 0:46:44I've lost interest, Marcel.
0:46:44 > 0:46:46Oh!
0:46:49 > 0:46:52I've wanted to do that for so long!
0:46:52 > 0:46:55Thank you, Alan. Well done, everyone. If you'd like to join us
