Eddie Izzard, Dame Diana Rigg and Robbie Coltrane on Parkinson Feb 1999

[Music] you [Music] [Applause] [Music] you [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] now if my three guests have anything in common apart from an abundance of talent it is they've all appeared in public wearing high heels now you might think so what in which case I have to tell you that two of them are men if you still say so what I can only assume you weren't brought up in Yorkshire what my guess was brought up in Yorkshire but being a woman I heels were okay in the 60s or in the 60s she was a sex symbol in her 60s she's recognized as one of our best actors she is the Evergreen Dame Diana Rigg another of my guests wore high heels when he played a transvestite in the film there were size 11 so chances are he didn't fool many people he's a splendid Robbie Coltrane and I'll be talking to Robbie later on in the program now our first guest has described himself as an action transvestite or a male tomboy others describe him as the funniest observer of the human condition to come along for many a long year he's an international staff whom the world is too small he wants to play a gig on the moon please welcome Eddie Izzard [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] so this week earlier on this week twelve thousand people at Wembley Prince's Trust has a tough gig for a not to over eleven thousand eleven throw sighs I got to say that and then we'll go only eleven person cuz I once I was at Wembley and I was saying I'm playing well maybe about the stadium it's just the arena a big gig big gig indeed I mean huge I mean all to to to reach as a comedian I would imagine though he saw after a rock group but well I had a big screen behind me and um and so there hopefully the people are back at sea but yeah it's it's stupid it's kind of ego blowing but it was it was a cherry for the princess dry so I just thought yeah no problem it can take away from my ego and just give all the money back to kids and and príncipe Liam's favorite comic now apparently apparently so well the headline said it may not have a be his favorite just he's got some of the videos um according to his dad so yes really oh but he's got a good sense of humor he's you know Charlie's got good sir he was into the girls he's in the spa yeah yeah and so was i my dad was into it so I've got my dad's sense of humor the those are the comedy heroes were those of goons Peter Sellers and that sort of thing um the Python my big heroes and then my dad introduced with the goons retrospectively and he was work for BP we were out in this I told Spike Milligan this is bizarre we where he was working out in Abu Dhabi Dubai the Arab Emirates the Gulf and they were piping out from Dubai so they were saying we now have the amazing out of fun with these crazy funsters Devon Ashleigh sound like a German accent does nobody with a wedgie but they would you know and then we listened to the goons from Dubai which was bizarre wherever you go I mean Australia that played every day out on radio me it's quite expressed on what about the this ambition you have to to play a gig on the moon is this a realistic ambition do you think oh I don't see why not they're gonna go there well I mean I played Iceland right I'm doing it I stood the Calot they're kind of bonkers cuz they you know have too much light in the summer and they go crazy and drink and there's not enough light in the winter so they go crazy and drink so it's very cool and all the kids will call they all have their feet up on the stove smoking cigarettes and their great English is it all in English they got it all so um and I just think go and play place is what people say well you can't play that like doing it in French in Paris I think well no you know so I did it and they go yeah and I think if they go to the moon why not do a gig on the moon where you get the crowd from well the other people on the moon oh I've forgotten about them I'm sorry I'm talking about they're gonna set up some sort of you know that sort of a space station or something you know a lot about tomorrow talking about you know and then the next is the invention they're about about playing gigs in in France in in in French you're not a linguist or are you me we want your English linguist at school or university not really I just learned it at school but I liked it my brother was a good linguist but um I just liked languages and I didn't do them at a level because it was all literature and stuff I just like speaking the language I like communicating but what's cool about French any good to you when you went over there - uh no not really um I wanna prove to my aunt know that we're done it's in a March path uh Prince Charles spoke French as well cuz like we had a chat in French last night so it's a big into the European thing so I love the European idea I know in Britain the ones we go Europe hide hide under a rock but I think no get involved in Europe and get the driving you know drive it you know rather than just being back passengers or in the boot so I thought you know if you go over at your English person and you speak French then I'll attempt to at least because initially there was a documentary that showed my early attempts and I was it was embarrassing I was embarrassingly bad but you've got to start somehow yes and I will go through that humiliating start off period to get through to the last time I played a week about 95% French by the end and the French will coming long ago yes I am you know doing the second language and I am doing stand-up they don't even have stand-up comedy there and I'm a transvestite so they freak out at that I was on French tele on cam out blues and they have this program that goes all around powder all around France and I just said there we just we travesty it's called travesty in travesty you know uphill struggle alright so I'm going to sell three things at once and but I think if I get the hip kids in Paris they might say hey it's kind of like rock and roll you clown thing they'll get on board then the trendy kids and then it'll filter down so that's my big plan I mean have you found that being a transvestite Action Man executive transvestite whatever you described is of as I mean you have you found it a hindrance to your career or a help in so many many ways well people normally you know if you were an actor or performer whatever he said I gotta be a come out and tell people the truth that I I'm transvestite it's just you know no one advise me to do this I just thought I could have just lost my career so it was I was like I just took my courage in my hands that I'll do is I'll be honest you know crazy idea being honest and in 1997 or whatever I said it it was only that you know the decade and but having done it people seem to respond to the positive the fact that you're just being honest and I'm just saying I'm TV that's it that's the truth then and if you got a problem that's your problem and they swing with it what it does gonna be a problem the number of women that have come up to me knew you were on the show and say how much they fancied you um you probably don't find that that's surprising well no do I look here you know but I mean I've got the idea you aren't charged down tonight now I'm in black emojis you're guilty I see well it's like um the point is is that windows I went trousers in the 20s and they said they can't do that now women where have total clothing rights they can wear whatever they want and no one has a bother about yeah well it is true isn't it women can wear men's you know flat shoes men's trousers a man's jacket short hair no makeup and we're fine with that that's okay there's no we don't say woman transvestite anymore it's not in our social dictionary it was back in the 20s and before and I think men should have the same right so your first ambition I think well one of your first ambition as a kid was was to be in the army yeah I mean there would have to be a profound change of attitude no well this is where people get confused good drag queen people think transverses drag queen they're separate things drag queens game in doing their thing kind of being glamorous transvestite is like male tom by all transvestites all like 95% i I can't measure it's debatable to measure because you don't meet whole bunch as a transversal yes hello but they fancy women and even men change sexes and live as women and then they have relationships with women so it's it's like male tomboy or male lesbian this is how I've tried to explain it so there's a big slice of bloke going on in there yes and that's why action transvestite is me you know I like running about jumping standing still I mean Diana Rigg played Emma Peel and I'm a kind of male Emma Peel that's where I'm driving does she know this have you haven't told you I'm interesting yennefer discussion why why dem appeal me right because everything was what M appeal was probably the first iPhone came along he took took what a strong woman wasn't yes yes she started kicking and smashing and she looked sexy at the same time yeah that's not like sort of want to be in that same area but it's kind of in a skirt and you know you said we are certainly said to me during your blocky mood tonight well it's just gonna got a beard and that explains it but I've got the whole range like women can have a whole range from very sexy that little black dress whatever down to dungarees paint in the house you know flat shoes going out and playing football and I could do the same I could actually grow beard so I can go for all the way from beard to wild glam glamourpuss what would what was puberty like that must have an even more of a mess than usual and tonight yes oh no there is a nightmare normal in there well I didn't deal with the transverse I think at all that you did because if you are you know a transvestite they do fancy women and so you just look like a boy fancies women so it doesn't really come into it and it was just this idea in the back of my head that that seems a problem I'll have to deal with it sometime but meantime puberty was I was kind of a cute kid I've early pictures I mean cute kid and and then hit puberty and became angular spotty pizza face and and I didn't get off with anyone for years you know I just lost all my confidence I think it is a nightmare time I don't know why mother nature's invented it Toberman it should happen in that when you're back 25 to deal with it all like dears you know like small deers or gazelles they seem to get up and they're on their feet within like hours and then they're running about and playing banjos and doing whatever and I think we should have a very quick puberty when were to or leave it to atomic fire but but in this time when you were ambitious to be in the SAS and the school cadet force and all that and and and and you were dealing with your sexuality in fact you were you add up for nikinoo a lipstick well yeah probably now there's something failed in that isn't I mean you said that you didn't address the the TV side of you but but sure that must be an indication that things work yes that's true yeah that's cuz I knew things were going I was 15 then so it was you know gone 13 14 15 I was in Boots excellency it was there had a loaf of bread hid under a loaf of bread and I was I could have bought it with pocket money you see but it's too embarrassing to buy maker because you think they might say why are you a boy by makeup you must be a transvestite we'll call God on my phone and the world will come so so I thought it'd be much more subtle to steal it and then just go to prison then they let you off didn't they they let me off he's a policeman silly do uh no um no he didn't sort of mention anything about the bad choice of make up we shouldn't use those you want those Rimmel that's better you know but nothing really have you handle your career very carefully in a sense I mean you've you've not done a lot of television and you've you've also fulfilled another of your ambitions in that you now appear you see yourself as an actor and you've appeared in movies yeah now did this ambition to be an actor I mean what's that about being a film star is it about being a film star is that where it goes back to uh I think my ego was screaming yes at wanting to be a film star but I didn't think I'm really look kind of film star thing I'm not in that kind of bracket I think I can I wanted to do quirky you know nutcase plants I think that's where I can excel at and if you're if you're British they look they line you up the bad guy parts they're quite happy at that so I just by bad guys really but didn't you I mean there's a distorted about you breaking into PI world yeah kid I was again about 15 it was just off for the makeup thing and I thought I better hide somewhere and I'd look I started reading the credits on films and I thought others information here these people have done stuff learn their names you know I became very tactical and and I found that time was at Iver Heath bucks and I I took a train up to London and I find it on the map you see Iver Heath but sits there and I thought I could go there I just go there and I thought maybe someone give me a job and I've took trained it to London and a tube to Oxbridge a bus to Ivy's got out walked up to the front gate and they say that's a kind of look RAM said no you know I know that I was on a big quest around the corner and that people were just walking in and out so I thought don't ask that seems to be think don't ask whether you can come and just walk in and so I did my just crept round Pinewood and nothing happened I didn't meet anyone no one said hey kid you want to be in this movie nothing I copied down the name of an editor I thought I was too scared but twenty to twenty years later or more you went there in your own right of your own steam so to speak to to make the Avengers movie I did make even a second bad guy to show and cover and and the producer um I told him the story and so he phoned ahead to get the doorman to be fun I had thought this idea well you refused last time I'll get the doorman to welcome you back in so we got the car to go out I didn't know about this and and as we went past the gate they just went on past the gate and I thought what's going on here she will show you a wall up here today with the guide obviously wasn't ready for this you know to welcome you back in to do this stage thing and I came back and they stood him and with the car stopped and they kept talking to him say it now say it now and eventually said oh your mysteries I welcome back so it was a great idea kind of backfired away well how did out a big Shana the Connery handle the fact that he was acting alongside a transvestite did it he was he didn't know I mean you know cuz he doesn't he I don't think he was quite up with you know what stand-ups were coming through so um he just I was just some bloke there who was acting as his second a little guy running his gang but I did have painted nails at one point I was wearing gloves all the time so I could have painted that and he saw him once look at my nails go just like what and then mum then just carried on um so he didn't mention it you know but now we're gonna bring Dame Diana Rigg on now so they'll be to ever peel sitting here well yeah but she's the real Emma Peel and I'm just a wannabe did you mind that film they they love the bumblebee that she was in absolutely it's way I think is one of the best I think also George Lazenby was really good no one knows him why did I used to ask her about it no I love George Mays me I love the fight sequence at the beginning my big bond aficionado but she was fantastic Emma Peel especially when the cars there and he's in the telephone boat he goes James and boom boom drove a very good car very good ice skating I mean she was brilliant you're gonna blast to talk about all right Eddie is up north thank you very much indeed [Music] [Music] my next guest my next guest became an international star in the sixties when she played Emma Peel in the Avengers more than 30 years on and she's lost none of her appeal a talent as an actress was recognized when she was made a dame of the British Empire everlasting glamour was confirmed where she was voted one of the sexiest stars of the century she is Dame Diana Rigg [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] this glorious travesty you found here first though the second Emma PLA yeah my rival yeah just the one about it pay I can't quite work I just didn't have the body but I got a bloke's body it doesn't quite work but it's a place I'm driving to what about that that that beer day I read a report recently where you said that you in fact you you didn't really enjoy who didn't cope well with the the fame at that time no because I was thrown into it when I was very young and in those days nobody gave you any help and so I was rather frightened by this it's rather like having sort of a huge lamps turned on you and your your private and you don't know how to deal with this spotlight it's disturbing and people wanting stuff from you and you're young and you don't know quite how to answer that hmm it was a surprise as you said nobody prepared you for it and of course you would it just happened didn't it it just felt from the blue literally you became this this huge star sex symbol and everything yeah sex symbol was the hardest thing to coax it why well because I was brought up in Yorkshire who don't love me which means that you just don't talk about this sort of things and um and you certainly did deal with you don't flirt for starters and you don't flaunt no flirt no flaunt so I was totally inept I didn't know how to deal with it and and you think looking back that you might have enjoyed it more actually well not particularly that bit but I see the maggie's now and all these cutters stars young young stars and they having fun and um and I kind of hid away and I think I could have had more fun but then I went on to have quite a lot of fun you did now it up really oh yeah the lasted the last time we met was in 1982 yeah without those the last at the last year's the last show the partisan show and you you then were telling me about your hobby at that time was was biting baby's bones my babies thought of you you tell me how you sir I'd have a snack yes ah me you made all the new slaves Oh yum yum yum an awful lot of people wrote to me and said how can you be so disgusting and bring sex into your your your your relationship with your child in mail well but that's what it is basically isn't it I mean this is the father's skin hmm yeah and uh then I had as she grew older I had to beg bargain to bite and I stood up David Davies now you yeah um I really have to contain myself again a bit honest to god honest god if people are truly honest they would they recognize that it's a sort of it you know babies are edible they are so I am eBay I never went for that kind of area myself it's an interesting thought by babies mothers oh yes I've never had a baby so I don't know wait you know what baby fighting thing is it's not on the cards you having a baby not a moment Bobby a very good well person family that's for perfect one pay fast happy I will at some pop I can't just do it now Jesse you drink Marvin as a long-term game plan might see it is on a long-term backburner not going for at the moment but uh yeah yeah and an awful lot of women find you sexy I know I told me I think he's wonderful I get to see his shows yeah I am staggered by the oh god I could never do it step on stage alone in front of his eleven thousand people and entertain them I could never do that in a million years I mean we met because you were doing Whitman dear I was dreaming in the theater behind that I we shared that was it the stage you came into my dressing room to talk about acting because you wanted to talk about acting and this wonderful man came into my dressing room um and I was busy making up for the show right getting into the kind of sort of Greek classic mode heart yeah heavy number and in he walked in his he had a kilt and high-heeled shoes I seem to remember problem ok it's been really serious of ok Eddie with this anyone who talked about acting but I like your story about when you did my dear about how to get those kids to be emotional with you when you had to have your own children killed and that was a great story well she should tell right now yes not even wrong man well shall I said it yeah to get kids to be in motion but you have to kill her own joy I have a lunch shot yeah write a story because I didn't watch place um she said she tried to get them to be a much let you to hug them and you tried giving them sweets and stuff nearly and money or anything right i bribe giving them cash that was the only thing that were yeah it's interesting children respond to cash Oh in the eighties of course you actually gave up your career that says to bring up your childhood things yeah I did I don't regret you don't know you don't it was the best thing in the world you know um being at the school gates when they tumble out of school being there for the sports day being there for the plane being there for the school concert well you know wonderful kind of stumbling you know she's not gonna get through the piece yeah uh I wouldn't I I wouldn't have missed that for the world but I mean there were a lot of people in that situation would be understand being secure because I mean there are more resting actors and there are factors in work and you put yourself you're part yourself away from the action for ten years and yeah well I paid the penalty at the end of it I did I did oh yeah that'll work I mean when the time came and I said hi there was not much response but that's fine so then I had to start pretty well pretty low down again um and I I don't mind that there's a kind of justice in that because I don't think you can treat the theater in a Cavalier fashion I think you have to pay your dues every inches away and I stopped paying my dues you came you came back with a bag of course in the end because of me you won won over four or five Awards you didn't Madea I was very lucky Virginia Woolf you did you did some very very strong parts yeah um which must be I mean very fulfilling that kind of role is still there they are wonderful they're absolutely wonderful um but they're also quite heavy and quite testing um I met a Japanese outside the stage door when I was coming out of federal which is yet another of those great kind of storm and dry parts and he said you're going to play comedy soon yes obviously you've been to see everything that I done okay really but you have me but you haven't played much comedy you're three no I'm longing to do it I adore comedy I so admire people who like yourself uh it's the most unifying thing in the theater you know laughter everybody's laughing and they have that common thing however disparate you all are you're just laughing on the same instant and I long to be able to I long to do it I have played comedy before but somehow I've got this reputation is this big drama queen yeah you've also I mean in the not remarkably I mean quite sensibly as you got to to your 60th year you became a call to Playboy magazine one of the sexiest 100 sexiest women of the sanctuary John knows how being your sure I don't know I think it's wonderful it's terrific and I'm obviously deeply flattered but do you know what happens when you grow old older you have a choice to make as a woman I I don't think men have to make this choice I look at photographs for example of Sophia Loren of Claudia Cardinale of Joan Collins of all those people who actually kept that there kind of sort of preserved and it shows that they've a last amount of self-discipline um but an absolute belief in themselves as a sex symbol no matter what age they are right now I couldn't do that good you have to make you make a choice as you grow older and you say I have to evolve I have to I am what I am and Gregor this sort of surprising you know you walk along a street and you at 5:00 in yourself in a shop window and you think who is that kind of late middle-aged woman Christ it's me but you that's the way it is but you see it's not as interesting because your your inner occupation which glamorous is everything is supposedly supposedly yeah and and the and the pressure upon an actress particularly as you said men don't have that kind of pressure that the doctors do to retain that which yeah I couldn't I can't think of anything worse frankly you know no because then you've you neatly it'll getting up in the morning and you must know this as you get older there are mornings when it hurts nobody tells you about the pain as you grow older but maybe you've kind of played you know three sets of tennis that the day before and say it hurts the following morning and then you go and you sit in front of the mirror and you think dear god I've got a jack all this up I don't make it all terrific and I've got to make it look like press rewind this was 35 years ago and I haven't changed and I couldn't bear to do that it's interesting as you know because I suppose that when you were that that that glamourpuss back in these or 60s that you take they take hours manufacture you would me I mean in makeup he did this when I was naturally quite attractive yes but the eyes I spend hours now I'm so bored by the makeup chair that I say to them you've got 15 minutes that's it max and I'm getting in front of cameras what about would you take consider plastic surgery sometime in your career absolutely every day which I working away I can't see what music truly I get my legs move over the back of my neck so I can sort of be do exercises and stuff well I try to then then I guess I'm touring I sort of do that by a bad excuse oh well all the people who are really committed to a mega survival I haven't had their trainers yeah I know I but I keep moving across continents and stuff so it becomes a little problem unless you have vast amounts of cash to take someone with you with a chef and that someone who plays banjo and all this kind of thing then you become a king Julia lower that's not traveling minstrel players but well I I really at my discipline this week and my metabolism is low and whoever works out how to get that dial on the metabolism and just get up cuz some people are very thin and they have to eat tons of stuff and they can't otherwise they just shrivel away and I just have to eat nothing and then I still put it on you know so I do I have to the other piece of bad news is as you get older your metabolism metabolism slows down oh gosh it's more lactic even less so I just think I could eat lettuce the rest of my life and everything slows down as you go never never had a thought of it at all you've never been offered it in the street 90 or perfect excuse for everything is good dynaroo from the mother thank you very much like damn Guyana my next guest has been in a Bond movie in Goldeneye he played a villain roller repeats in the next Bond movie currently being made arrived on the big screen via the small screen tutti-frutti announced his talent cracker substantiative ladies and gentlemen robbie coltrane [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] he'll be seeing a school everything is that best behavior side sir amazingly in the ducts of this show that all fit my guests I'd too worn high heels at one stage in their career yes you well I I got a fruit machine I was and I am I studied transvestites I went to a lot of places where they hang out purely in the interest of research didn't talk to me well you're too young then probably and when I went to get fitted for my shoes I'm a size 11 broad think you know what I'm saying there ladies I said let me give me a hair that's got that unlined with some sort of spongy material because women shouldn't be awfully thin dear over something my size because I'm gonna be hanging around for a lot you know hours on end cuz I'm doing it for a film and he just went of course you are sir oh these are the lawyers middle-aged Louis I'm doing a film and I'll need a short really so that was great but I did I did emphasize my god tights and all that and and I had these stick on nails as well and gay tights a stick on that start fro you got a paint that my own nail boys have been nails and women women's nails always break boys yeah but we will you did some research who would want real killer research see and I just hung it hung around in some of those places I mean that but I mean it's slightly I mean like you're saying that there's a complete difference between people who just like to dress up them and in women's frocks occasionally and people who have a sort of sexual identity crisis and I mean that is very interesting because I mean that this one guy who are kind of a baseless character Arden was a truck driver and yeah you know tattoos you know like then and then six o'clock it was right now I'm surely people would phone him up there we go what time is it Maureen it's quarter to six I will still be bobbin I Bob can you come round with inside Bing Bing Bing Doug and Shelly now you don't own this stock and that was it but it did it did kind of somebody did interest win so this is a feminist question why it is that so many men who dress up as women want to be Bette Lynch I mean none of them want to be but none of them want to be Indira Gandhi you know I'm saying I can explain it go on the explanation is is that you tend to fantasize about being the a very sexy woman and you only they only come out the weekends usually when they stop truck driving yeah truck driving applies to the fact that there's a big slice of boy going there a lot of people in the forces end up TV you know people who do big macho things you know I wanted to be in the army and then I thought it's not gonna swing the transverse ISM and the the thing white does is so extremists because they only get the charts like the first disco age 14 for girls they really glam up and if the short skirts and high heels on whatever when women get to 20 they think are stuff all that it's a pain and I'm just gonna dress I want occasionally dress up yeah but for people have just come out being TV it's that right you always dress quite restrained apart from that yellow a nice because I can wear whatever I want yeah it was red whatever I I have total clothing rights I have yellow so soon happy also I got yeah exactly almost I can do it whatever I am Betty you attach it you you want to be a policeman talking about him want to be in the the RVD I did yeah I wanted i I mean I I read my dad did a lot of police sergeant working with a lot of he's a doctor yeah but he did a lot of dragon bodies at the Clyde and stuff professionally or does that but he had some horrific books in the hearse American medical jurisprudence and toxicology is a book I would never open if I were you yes about the high detail of somebody who's fallen 18 flights onto a set of railings was going headfirst or arse for us when he hit them you know we get suppose some people have to consider that don't certainly do um and I'll get quite morbidly fascinated with all this but simply because at the end of the day killers and people have done dreadful things have been caught was a one hair one single hair that's been fun I mean now with DNA it's it's it's getting even more precise you can you there now saying that there there are DNA patterns you can tell what color people's hair and eyes were just remember to their blood and things like that so I was fascinated by that so it was quite ironic ending up doing doing cracker doing crackers right the world came full circle and also I wanted to be in a rock and roll band and they they gave me cheese I don't know I quite like to run a South American country anybody out there likes a baby I just like the big epilator those Nazis they got their best frog extremist parties the Communists and the Nazi yes extreme said hey calm metals and I mean you'll see these flashing guys and motors it nobody's lived that long nobody what's what's he doing with the Trafalgar medal this guy is he's cheating they must be some dessert medals on us for the lens of the poppy hey that's your Russian accent of course from Goldeneye good length Michael and [Applause] John bacon survives in charge Katya yes sorry and your watch the but you must be the only villain my Blofeld the particles who play by different actors yeah only the little survived Bond movie I know I know I know it cost me a fortune um I mean in golden light was kind of unresolved cuz yeah I mean he's a bad guy but but not irredeemably bad so this time he's the kind of it's the a commemorative it's not exactly glamorous but Kim tae-woo remember him I do indeed he was the man who said the camera loves you or doesn't it's probably the ugliest man who ever lived and I thought I was sweet actually you know you're me I remember all the bad guys know I do you're not a student of the movies you know your movie career started with James Mason then you must have known rocket camera no I mean I'm a big movie battle said you said these to wear a fez at times as well yeah I stopped using for it yeah there's yes exactly so the swarthy bad guy that's right I was in the net eric ambler film yeah and he was great I mean never spent working I was right so a bit of in there this bond thing it must be the end of every boys fantasy isn't it it is walking anymore let me tell you what it's like the first day on I went down and it was a lie rope you know gunned at the Pinewood it is a bit like going back to school so I doing big man I've seen you a while you know it's very friendly it's very it's so different from Hollywood is very lots of guys shouting a Motorola's you know okay where's that goddamn you know whereas it's a lap or a three remember me who's it we've done messing around I even yoke top see you in the cantina could of respect please sir you don't get it even that's half the fun as you know but you're there five minutes before what some pieces have you been fitted for your gun yet you know you know oh it's great and they get on the whole time thank you my you know those posters they have the CIA Hamlet swivel you know for a quick bullet do you have any of them he's like just a minute sir Dickensian seats where the city scenes where some aerosols getting fitted for his hunting boots you know I think sir perhaps a 16 B have you got a colt 45 semi-automatic of always like one of them in chrome so let's see Lincoln should be filming this yo it's like a scene out of a Bond movie minutes and there's the double irony it will it is a complete toy thing I just did this one call the mystery man like they gave me a gun that was huge in gold and I thought great you know yeah I only had 15 shots in it you know amazing think I even said to the special effects I can even make up things like so can I have a hairspray because I was playing twenty pompadour a big hair and they said Chloe hairspray that doesn't have flame for all right and they went and made it yeah you do never some girl Minh movies that you're doing well I did it bombed I know you disagree I disagree magnet is because and it was um it was profligates the money that they spent on these was something unbelievable and and as an actress who you know been in the Avengers and not being paid a great deal of money I was paid honking amounts for this thing I couldn't believe it there's monkey Lyra shorty where they used to call it Mickey Mouse bunny yeah toss stuff at you and then I was taken over to Paris to the collections to pick out what I wanted to please and I was sitting next to Harry Saltzman swive yeah yeah and it was a hot June day she was wearing pearls which will probably worth you know king's ransom and remember all these beautiful girls drifting past I've seen well I numbered so we may be if I can fit into it or four or five six then I heard mrs. Olson thinks oh pearls are so hot and I thought well you have to be really rich to reach that bike robit you're like the rest of us at sea I mean Hollywood was your I suppose I'm bitching was it in a sense I mean is fantasy yeah definitely a fantasy I never ever sat down and thought what up we know what is my plan for the next six I think that's a generation difference I mean our generation we just thought things happened to you and I mean I used to sit and watch movies and know that I absolutely loved them and when I was watching movies I felt kind of excited and safe at the same time was where I wanted to be but it never occurred to me in the million years that I would ever be in one and see my name running up and Weir's and I still got a real positive eventually you know when I walk onto I mean got out of pine wood there's just miles of cable and trucks and lights being pulled out of trucks and you really think yes this is that excuse me I still get that feeling that I've I've made it I've run away to the circus and they're paying me for it no one's gonna drag me home you know this is where I belong but what about Hollywood itself I mean that's American film industry I mean they that then that's that industry you grew up with in your imagination yes existed no that's gone that's all on a movement you're it's more it's it's well it's like everywhere else in the world it's a global economy run by accountants and there's not these grand old cigar-chomping guys who could memorize 50 scripts you know like towel burg and all those guys these guys gone there's all little groups of of rather uptight guys in Armani suits who are always on the cell phone who who don't appear to be having a lot of fun and I think that's the worst thing she ought to mean him you read about John Ford he finished making stagecoach got onto his three-master went down to Mexico went round all the horror houses followed by a mariachi band and half the cast until it was time to go and make money you can't really imagine people doing that not because you know they've you know going down for tons of Perrier water oh yes I do cellular phone I did also train yeah any personal trainer yet I don't so it's repost but I mean working I mean what making movies it's the same everywhere really isn't it it is you know it's the same they used to take hours they used to take hours over a close-up in the other days they don't anymore they still do this to Lily well the the big studios are obsessed with coverage they have to every single point of view they'd have to film you and me and then from the top and then the floors point of view and then that side and that side is just so that should you die or disappear or something when they come to edit the film look at every possible possible point of view right and it becomes a bit tiring yes whereas the British director source do tend to be X telly and X BBC I sort of yes one there one there and then elevenses goodbye me gasps lovely that's right I mean that's what cracker was like because the the schedule was horrific and all the equipment have to be moved up to this this you'll like this the old Daily Mirror building in the middle of Manchester big hideous monolithic building Maxwell learned it of course and he called it Maxwell House no does that prove or what and you think he must have all these guys who were so scared of them nobody said please sir you know Maxwell House is a well-known brand a copy then that nobody said it was different but they have to move all the equipment up like five floors in this tiny elevator every day there's disused Factory so it was very much less than glamorous was it too when when the governor wrote cracker that he had in mind a small wiry man is true so he know his description I've seen it I should have cut it out a small wiry man who looks as if he might have spent most of his life in the army so was there any choice so we had a very long boozy lunch when I had to convince him and it was very funny actually because because gab Neil got it all together he knew that if if my governor and I ever sat down and had a long boozy lunch that we'd be lifetime pals and that would be it and that's what he was right okay now um so you're doing one after this you were resting or after mounting tonight's home I go for a couple of sherbet swell he said I was after the Banda I'm supposed to be doing film in Dublin set in a prison playing a a an old fella from Dublin and so there's a it's kind of like a postmodern violent porridge our scenes it's like there's the old lag of the young lag in prison but it's old its old involves machine guns and nastiness and drugs so they don't value what Hugh Dennis and I did something either the BBC last check or mrs.
