00:00What was more uncomfortable, the Tony the Tiger suit or filming as an Oompa Loompa for Wonka?
00:04These are the roles I cherish now. I like to be orange. Both characters are orange.
00:12And I did a Guy Ritchie film last year, which I was completely orange in the face.
00:17I've worked out this is the defining character. In fact, this is what I now demand of my agent.
00:22Hugh Grant's orange period. I can see it. I love that.
00:25Donald Trump is the next part.
00:27You know, I would watch that. I would totally watch that. And that's saying something.
00:31Which, by the way, since you mentioned the Guy Ritchie film, Operation Fortune was just a hoot.
00:36Did you like it?
00:37Yeah. Oh, I had such a blast with that.
00:39Oh, I've warmed to you.
00:41Oh, thank you. I just I like watching you with Guy Ritchie and then even just with Paul King.
00:46Because these are just these Helmers that know humor and know what to do.
00:52And like once you link in with someone like that.
00:54That's right.
00:54It's not a job anymore.
00:55Oh, yeah. And it's lovely.
00:57It's lovely when you can trust them to know where the joke is, know when the joke happened, because it doesn't happen every take.
01:03And then pick the right take and preserve it in the edit.
01:07And of course, conversely, it's miserable when you think, Christ, a distinguished director.
01:12But I don't think they really get jokes.
01:15And I've been there as well.
01:16Take care.
01:18And I'm here.
01:18And I'm here.
01:19And I'm here.
01:20And I've been there.
01:21And you're here.
01:22And I'm here.
01:28And I'm here.
