What about that show where Gogglebox. Oh, Naked
Attraction. That one, yeah, that one.
All that stuff, yeah, it was old 7
, like a lot of 7. A lot of
70s stuff. Guys, fancy meeting you here.
It's great to see you both. You look familiar
. I know, must have seen you maybe in
the corridor or something. It's a Scottish thing.
It's a Scottish thing because we've established that you two
are both Scottish as well. I guess I'm a
quarter. I'm a half. We could be related
, who knows, our ancestors. Listen, I
, I've seen 2 episodes, love it so far
. I was reading the production notes, and one
of the things that stuck out to me was the
fact that when you were filming in London, David
, you would rush home to watch Catch Phrase,
is this right? I wouldn't rush home. Yeah
, you rushed home. Well, as you know
, there's no rushing in London traffic, uh,
so I would rush home. I, I would
watch Catch Phrase and I watch Gogglebox. So these
are shows that we didn't get in America. Gogglebox
. Oh, Naked Attraction. That one. Yeah
. No, but I remember you saying like I
saw this show where people show their bodies and,
and they, and then they're being judged by it
. Yeah, it was very odd, but anyway
. But Catchphrase was funny because I, I rushed
home after work and I watched Catch Phrase and Jack
Whitehall was one of the, uh, The clues
. And so I was like, wow, he
is a big deal. He is a big deal
. He's a, he's a catchphrase clue. So
I had, I had zero respect for Jack before
that. And then, and then after that,
after that I came to work. I was like
. Wow, your catchphrase holds a lot of weight
. Do you know what I mean? It's a
catchphrase, catchphrase. That's how they say it.
I don't know what this is about. It's going
. What did you rush home to watch when you
were making this? Yeah, good question. You
something weird as well. But what is catchphrase?
Sorry to be I can't explain it. OK,
never mind. I know it's quite hard. You
probably just need to watch it. It would be
so confounding to you because the You have to figure
out catchphrases, which are kind of like slogans or
or, you know, cliches, but they're all
English, so you would not get any of them
. You would just be sitting there going. The
whole half hour you would be like. They experienced
it all here. We did dad jokes. Jake
, Jack and I had to do dad jokes and
make each other laugh, and I didn't get any
of that. He was like, you can never
be in my shows in the front row because it's
, it'd be like early doors would be the answer
and you'd be like. The door. The door
. Do you know what that means? Early doors
at the doors, yeah, yeah, like,
OK, no, OK, never mind, sorry
. No, I watched the documentaries about rhinoceroses.
I'm serious, I saw one of the most beautiful
documentary was about rhinoceroses. I just like the way
you say that the plural. What is the plural
? It is, but you're. How did we
get here? How did we get here? Because
the, you know, they're they're not doing well
, that the rhinoceross. I'm serious though, you
know that he's a, he's an animal friend.
I am. You would have, you would have
cried too. I know. I'm sure I would
. Let's talk about you're saying rhinoceros. rhinos.
I'm not I'm sorry, it's like a dinosaur anyway
, let's talk about Jack. So obviously we're used
to him being a funny guy. He's quite menacing
. In this, and I'm actually quite creeped out
by him after watching him as Adam on this,
which is a good thing because he's obviously done a
good job. What was it like for the both
of you, because I know your characters have kind
of separate scenes with him, and he manipulates both
of your characters separately and together, right? Yeah
, he does, um. I just thought,
you know, just Jack as an actor, you
know, he was committed and serious and wanting to
do great work, so it was just like.
Respect that. So we just, I mean that's
the way I felt, but in like as a
person, lovely on and off camera, you know
, no, not on camera, but off camera
. On camera, not a good guy. I
mean, I know Adam's like freaks me out.
Carris, I hate to do this to you,
but I feel like it's been brought up, so
I want to address self in the room. Tell
me about your DJ skills because this is obviously something
that, no, I just, I can be
a little bit anal with my, I'm a bit
pushy. Let's say with my music, um,
but I, I do think that I have a
good taste and I'd like to put it on people
, but I feel, I, I feel more
like I'm an emo jockey. Like I feel like
I can tune into the vibe of something and then
I can go on with the, with my music
and I can it's my language and she would be
playing. It was probably your phone, but I
think I wanna say you had a speaker, I
always had a speaker. She had a speaker just
like in this little Greek town and she's like playing
, playing, so I'm just following along, listening
to the music, and it was always good.
It was always good and she turned me on to
some good stuff. I can't remember what it is
now, but it was good, and I'm,
and I, and yeah, DJ no. Do
you remember what it was? No, what,
what it was that that I liked that you were
, you were all that old stuff. Yeah,
it was old 7, like a lot of 7
. Lot of 70s stuff. Yeah, but it's
what I like as well. So I mean we
have it was a similar taste I guess in in
music. The rhinoceros. I love this relationship.
I love this dynamic. I love this kind of
teasing because it's similar with your characters as well.
No, I mean, but I think it is
, it is nice that there's, there's, there's
a genuine, um, uh, connection between these
two people, and that's also what you want because
you don't want it to fall apart. And of
course that's, you know, it looks like it's
, there's cracks in the, in the story.
He likes to laugh and we, we, we
, we would make each other laugh quite a bit
when we were shooting, so that was, I
think that was kind of an undercurrent that was nice
. Throughout the, the characterizations. And also if
someone doesn't take themselves too seriously, especially in the
acting world, I mean, like, yeah,
like, like Jack. I like Jack and all
the other actors in the show, divas, a
lot of them. But actually about Jack, I
have to say that was so endearing, is that
the word? How he was preparing for this,
this specific dance. Remember? Oh God, yeah
. I just felt for him so much because I
don't think dancing is necessarily on his palette. You
know, possibly not. And he was so committed
. Yeah, he was working really hard. Is
that in the first two episodes, the dance it
is. Yeah, yeah. How can I forget
? This is still with my brain. I'll never
unsee it. I think he did a pretty good
job. I mean, I don't know that kind
of realm. So in terms of what he did
for that, hard to judge it. Yeah,
exactly. Hard to judge. I don't know.
Yeah, trust. Let's say yes. Yeah,
it was good. Yeah. Listen, thank you
both so much. You're both so funny, and
I can't wait to binge the rest of us.
I've no idea where it's gonna go, so um
it's wide open for me at the minute. Thank
you very much.
