I’ve got a great big list of things I want to write about, but the space in my brain has been shrinking all week and by lunchtime, there was a centimetre left.
I went on the same show whilst at school , the guests were a couple of robotic dancers called Tik and Tok and Charlie Watts who was sitting on a deck chair on a beach set with real sand , at the time I had no idea who he was but got his autograph anyway . We had to prepare some sketches before hand , it was pre recorded , I did an awful Basil Fawltey inspired version of the nativity for some reason. Memory tells me it was recorded on the Wednesday and shown on the Saturday , and I didn't get to see it when it was on for some reason but did see the video at school a week or so later . Also saw Gus honeybun who was stuffed in a cupboard . Ryk x
Being recorded makes sense, but I can’t work out why we didn’t see it on tv at home… maybe swapshop or tiswas were so compelling that we didn’t even watch ourselves?? They must have ditched the sketches before I got there haha (also possible that I wiped it from memory)
I LOVE THIS! Although finding out I had new tits while on TV with Talk Talk would have sent me immediately to a therapist. You are a badass though and also I’m very jealous of that cloth kits tshirt!
I don’t think i’ve ever been on TV. Oh well.
You’re not missing out ;)
