Hello.

0:03

I'm Rob Beckett, and I'm Josh Willicom.

0:05

Welcome to Parenting Health, the show in which

0:07

Josh and I discuss where he's really like

0:10

to be apparent, which I would say can be a

0:12

little tricky.

0:21

So to make ourselves and hopefully you

0:23

feel better about the trials and tribulations of

0:25

Monday parenting, Each week, we'll

0:27

be chatting to a famous parent about how they're

0:30

coping, or hopefully how they're not coping.

0:32

And we'll also be hearing from you the listener with your

0:34

tips, advice, and of course, tails

0:36

apparenting whoa. Because let's be honest,

0:38

there are plenty of times where none of us know what

0:41

we're doing. Hello.

0:46

You're listening to parents in hell with.

0:48

Can you say rock

0:50

for a bucket? Back.

0:53

And can you say Josh?

0:55

Yeah. We'd come.

0:58

So we'd come. Under

1:03

It's the trophy boxing. I

1:05

don't know. I feel it felt it felt like they're using

1:08

Anton Dubex WiFi.

1:13

I should I should say about Anton Becht's WiFi

1:16

last week. We try our best to keep the quality

1:18

as good as we can But and it's quite

1:20

difficult to talk about this. But I do blame to Anton

1:22

Dubuque's WiFi. No. A couple of people won't.

1:25

But what I would say is when you get

1:27

anyone that's off the teli and over

1:29

fifty. You're very much dealing with

1:31

an iPad and hope. Yeah.

1:33

I've mainly There's we can foxtrot, but

1:35

you can't use a dongle. Let's be honest. So

1:38

that's not just Anton. That's fine. In general,

1:40

when you're on the people on the tell, they're over

1:42

fifty. They they they don't they're

1:44

not sort of grass roots like we are with

1:47

setting up our computers, ourselves, kind of things very

1:49

much. I I can take it off brand

1:51

for Anton Dubek to be across modern technology.

1:54

Imagine if he had a game in chair and a big

1:56

like curve screen. Start

1:58

screen. That touch screen. So

2:01

2:50

Yeah. There are adverts on Spotify.

2:52

Have you outlined? Is that something element of

2:54

that? Well, I understood that people

2:56

would be confused, and we explained

2:59

it to him, and a lot of people were fine. the ones I couldn't

3:01

get me had round, the ones going, I just don't want

3:03

another app on my phone. And I felt

3:05

like on the list of things I'll give a fucking shit

3:07

about, How many apps someone has

3:09

on their phone really isn't one of

3:11

them? No. Well, is that because

3:15

you know what? have any apps. I've got

3:17

hundreds of fucking apps and I've never thought about

3:19

it. I've got hundreds of fucking shit apps

3:21

on my phone. I mean, what even is

3:23

Stampi UK? I don't That's

3:25

an app I downloaded once to work out stamp

3:27

duty. I'm just looking at my apps here.

3:29

I've got shopkins run for the kids when

3:31

their iPads run out of battery. Yeah.

3:33

What three words? What the fuck is that?

3:36

I've got Discord, downloaded it, never used

3:38

it, but fair enough. Yeah. Anyway,

3:40

from Nick's The next episode will

3:42

be only available on Spotify.

3:45

Anyway, let me talk about my dive. So

3:47

I've had a holler of a day. Go on. school

3:49

run. Look at into school. We

3:51

are literally at the door

3:54

where they're going at sort of little entrance bit.

3:56

massive fox shit on the floor. I

3:58

say, don't treading that. A

4:00

child could never have stepped in it more

4:03

squarely or full on.

4:05

And then she put her foot up

4:07

absolutely -- Oh my god. -- covered -- Oh

4:09

my god. -- in fuck shit. So then

4:11

but then I'm I am thinking, oh, I had to go to

4:13

the, like, the teacher, the guy. I was like, oh, She's

4:15

tried in fox poo. I don't really know what

4:18

to do. Obviously, I knew what to do. He's

4:20

like, you gotta wash it off, but I was like, I'm not

4:22

home and I'm like, I can't just bowl

4:24

into the school. You can't take her all the

4:26

way home though. Exactly. So I

4:28

they were like, okay. We'll we'll sort it out. Oh, no.

4:30

No. I'm not expecting you to clean the

4:32

shoe. I was just basically it was so British,

4:34

basically. I should've just gone excuse me. Can you

4:36

use your toilet? because she's got fox peel on her shoe? Yeah.

4:38

Yeah. Yeah. And then got in or just said,

4:40

can I use your use your toilet? But

4:42

so I had to take the shoe off. I carried her

4:44

in, and then I spent

4:46

ten minutes cleaning fox

4:48

poo and I'm gonna send you the picture out

4:50

of the show. I know it was fine, Rob. I don't know what

4:53

No. No. It was proved it was proved

4:55

it was proved in. Look

4:57

at the picture. I'll put it on Instagram. That

4:59

is a killer. Right? Oh, you're going over.

5:02

Right off the show. Right off the show.

5:04

Well, no. I took talks at this point stood in

5:06

the toilet with you. She's in in reception

5:08

with one shoe on talking to the receptionist. Yeah.

5:10

Okay. I'm in the toilet, and then I'm like,

5:12

right. The only thing in there is toilet tissue, but it

5:14

isn't got That's not gonna do it.

5:16

Exact hasn't got a sharp enough edge. Does

5:18

it? It's getting the gravity unless you're willing to

5:20

put your nails behind the toilet. Absolutely

5:23

not. No. Not me. That

5:25

is not me, sir. Right. So what

5:27

would you do in that situation? I

5:29

just think one choose fine. What

5:32

would I do in that situation? I nearly

5:34

spat my coffee on the table. I think I

5:36

would I think you have to go to

5:38

the cafeteria and get a knife.

5:41

No. Well, also now I'm thinking, oh, god. I

5:43

don't want my daughter to be like getting

5:45

embarrassed and straight. You know, it's a fur, you know,

5:47

it's like she's a first year. She'd only be known

5:49

as FOX Pooper first day after half

5:51

term as well. FOX Pooper and all

5:53

stuff like that. So That can't complain

5:55

about that. I imagine. I went into my Pop

5:57

wallet. Yeah. Cut a

5:59

card. No. because I didn't wanna because I I don't

6:01

wanna do it on a bank card because I've got a

6:03

touch set and use that. I was looking for my

6:05

card and I need all them cards. Could I I'm in,

6:07

I guess. Yeah. Fold a

6:09

receipt twice so you've got a kind of

6:12

point from the hardness of

6:14

that receipt. Right. That's what I was after.

6:16

No receipt You know what I add in there?

6:19

Not one of our condoms. Night.

6:21

I

6:24

had I add my ticket to the UFC.

6:27

Oh, the hell no.

6:30

I love keeping my tickets when I've gone to an

6:32

event. Yeah. And then they'll look on over

6:34

again, but you do put them in a box and then think,

6:36

one day, I'll go through and then imagine

6:38

one day, I will remember. children

6:40

will launch them in a skiff when I'm dead.

6:44

Anyway, I thought I know. I don't want I wanna

6:46

keep the UFC ticket. So I

6:48

used what else I'd in there. And I'm a

6:50

bit ashamed of this, Josh. No.

6:53

It was a stamp. A stamp

6:56

not with not with the face of our dead

6:58

monarch. Yeah.

6:59

Oh, Rob. I

7:00

know. Oh, no. Oh, no. It's

7:03

her face. Wait. But Rob, Well,

7:05

was was the stamp mounted on a piece

7:07

of card? Right? Is that So the stamp was mounted

7:09

on a piece of card. You just take that

7:11

stamp off and stick it to the UFC ticket.

7:14

I should have done that. Oh, no,

7:16

Rob. Rob, you could be home for treason

7:19

for this. I used the queen's head.

7:21

Okay. Well, let's not get too graphic. not get

7:23

to go to graphic because the Daily Mail will

7:25

jump on this. Sky TV comic

7:27

in Queen Fox. No. She'll be

7:29

radio The radio to host. radio

7:31

too. Nice. Smedes

7:34

shit on dead monarch face.

7:39

Oh, publicity's good publicity. I had

7:41

to do it, so I had to do it.

7:43

So I had to that's all I had. But what I

7:45

should've done is he'll lizzie off. stuck

7:48

it to somewhere else and then use

7:50

the mounted bit of card. Yeah. You should have

7:52

done that. But instead, you just you just folded

7:54

the card in two to get a tight

7:56

cotton edge. Good. And then I and I

7:58

and I sort of zoomed it around and

7:59

got it out. And then flush the tight tissue paper

8:02

and then put the shoe underneath the top. Great

8:04

work. How about you, Josh? Yeah. It

8:06

8:08

10:10

very correct. Yeah. I can't say nothing

10:12

10:14

10:16

that. Let's fix it. the other reasons. But

10:18

I'll be up to the day. Yeah.

10:20

Oh, but Sorry to interrupt. Oh, yeah. Where are

10:22

10:30

started doing a cafe

10:32

up the road. doing a cafe

10:34

running a cafe? Yeah. Yeah.

10:36

She's taken over a cafe at Gums Center,

10:39

and so I'm making scones this

10:41

morning for the first I'm my life.

10:43

Alright. Okay. Well, good luck to the people eating those

10:45

goings. Exactly. That

10:47

will be served by Wednesday. That's

10:51

sited. I said we've we've met before

10:53

because you was on Queen well,

10:55

you're on Queen's for the night, which is on

10:57

ITV this Saturday. in

10:59

your first sort of performative role

11:01

outside of Steve Mcdonald on Corie?

11:04

Absolutely right. Yeah. And so how long have you been to

11:06

Steve Mcdonald for On Corie? Thirty

11:08

three years. Wow. Thirty three

11:10

years. And then the first is you've you've

11:12

done like a lot of celebrity shows like

11:14

catchphrase and family fortunes and

11:16

those sort of things. Yeah. But after

11:18

thirty three years, you've taken

11:20

on the role as a drag queen. So

11:22

before we get onto the kids, that I just looked

11:24

so shocked. Well, it's a

11:26

natural transition. Yeah.

11:30

How was that the first thing you did?

11:32

Outside of Seema Donald? It was

11:34

it was really fun, you know. I mean, my

11:37

agent, you know, gave

11:39

me an me whether I want

11:41

to do it or not. And I was like, well, yeah, why

11:43

wouldn't I? You've got a show. You've got Range

11:45

Rob. This is the opposite of what he's

11:47

making. She's a changed man.

11:49

This is it. Yeah. I've seen me pinning

11:51

this morning. I've not stopped.

11:54

So Steve, anyway, he

11:56

was brilliant on that. We can talk about a

11:58

bit more later on. It's on, I think, Saturday

12:00

night on ITV. But point

12:02

of the episode, let's talk about your kids. How

12:04

many kids you got? How what are their ages?

12:07

I've got

12:07

three boys. I've got Alfie's fifteen.

12:10

I've got Harry who is thirteen, and

12:12

I've got Henry who is six. then

12:14

the most amazing boys were

12:16

so very very lucky with

12:18

them. Most of the time. Most

12:20

of the time. They get on really

12:22

well. There is a lot testosterone there,

12:24

so there is a lot fighting. Not

12:27

to the point where there's blood drawn or, you

12:29

know, to get out swords or anything. But

12:31

typical brother is just rolling around

12:33

and winding each other up. But

12:35

apart from that, they're

12:37

great. They're really great. We are

12:39

blessed them. They're very good for And you said you're not

12:41

very good at computers when we were setting

12:43

up this zoom. And you can see on

12:45

your zoom, it says Alfie. So are you

12:47

on your son's laptop? Yeah.

12:50

Well, it was originally my

12:52

laptop, but now it's ended up his

12:54

office like most of the things in the

12:56

house. he's got a very small

12:58

bedroom with all of us to fit it. And how

13:00

old alfie fifteen? Fifteen.

13:02

Yeah. And what's it was it like a

13:04

teenage? Is it has only hit that sort of teenage?

13:06

And it? Do they sort of hate you

13:08

now? Or is it a bit not as bad as

13:10

the people make it out? You

13:11

know what? It's not as bad as

13:13

people make out with us.

13:15

I think

13:16

because I have I have a friend who

13:18

had the teenage daughter who asked that she's not

13:20

a teenage anymore, but when she

13:23

was, she was not impressed with their dad at

13:25

all. And the boys are a lot easier

13:26

as teenagers. You

13:28

still get that kind of oh. Do

13:31

really? Do I have to? and they

13:33

do walk in things a lot. He's

13:35

very gangly. He's forever stopping his

13:37

video. That's all not

13:39

grown into their bodies yet. Yeah.

13:41

I've Absolutely. Yeah. It's got no

13:43

it it doesn't realize that the toe that

13:45

the toes have got bigger, the arms have

13:47

got longer, and you're expanding

13:49

it hard to navigate, you know? So

13:51

it's a lot of that. And you say that they're

13:53

they're it's not that they're not impressed.

13:55

Are they impressed by Steve

13:58

McDonald? No.

13:59

no No. They're not

14:02

interested in it at all. It

14:04

annoys them actually. Does it go out? It

14:06

annoys to me and Harry, my

14:08

middle boy. we went out

14:10

to supermarket visiting. And,

14:12

of course, people stop in the

14:14

stair. And, you know, the usual one is

14:17

at they they kind of double take

14:19

and and the one dream whether you or not.

14:21

And that that the company say, it's it's

14:23

it's it's it's it's it. They didn't say out loud

14:25

sometimes. Know it. Is it? Yes. It is. Know

14:27

it. It's I can hear you. I'm not deaf. I mean,

14:29

you go to a doctor. But

14:31

how he finds it fascinating and us to

14:33

copy them and, like, walking around after

14:35

them doing what they were doing. Why

14:37

then? Well, yeah. Somebody can

14:39

see. It's like, why do we do this, dad?

14:42

And then and then what ran you look at you

14:44

like? Why do they do that to bake it

14:46

in? They're all in terribly embarrassing work with it. He's

14:48

been defend he's been pitch protective

14:50

of it. They are very protective of it.

14:52

Yeah. Yeah.

14:52

The the candidate don't it doesn't compute

14:55

for them. Like, it doesn't compute for me even

14:57

after all these years. I kinda get it, you

14:59

know, on a kind of logical level.

15:01

Mhmm. But I

15:03

I really don't understand it

15:05

sometimes. There is a level of that famed, I

15:07

think, of being on a solo Coronation

15:09

Street for that long is that

15:11

everybody knows who you are. It's sort of like,

15:13

you know, of a few people were able to say hello

15:15

to me and Josh be could be if they watch

15:17

odd programs and stuff, but

15:19

everyone knows who's on Corrie. Yeah. And it's

15:21

crazy. It's so bit up being the prime minister. Like, if

15:23

you're in one of the prime minister or one

15:25

of the, like, the cabinet offices, everyone sort of

15:28

knows you because they're always there on the tele

15:30

every night kind of thing. and and

15:31

made a man who joined the show were doing a lot of

15:33

films, really big films and he'd done a

15:35

lot of drama. You know, he was a very well known

15:37

actor and he said, God forbid,

15:39

when you get recognized all the time, you manage it, you

15:41

must do your editing. You must come to London. It

15:43

does not as bad there. I don't get

15:45

any either. I said London's just as

15:47

bad. I said, listen, wait and tell your

15:49

characters on TV. Sure enough. Yeah.

15:51

I was gay. And I sold everywhere. I said, that

15:54

soaps, you know. You're in people's front room

15:56

at the time. And so

15:57

your sons would never would they have

15:59

watched Corey? I

15:59

mean, I'd rather be waiting

16:02

for you You don't. Do you ever sit down and watch it?

16:04

That'd be weird. You know what? I don't. I

16:06

I used to a long time ago because

16:08

a friend of mine or a couple of friends

16:10

of mine. in the

16:13

in the sound department used to set

16:15

to chat challenges for me. Say, in a bit, you

16:17

can't do this. And I'd say,

16:19

well, better can. And then let's see if if

16:21

it's past the editing. No. No. No. No. No. No. No. No. No. No. No. No. No. No. No. No. No. No. No. No. No. No. No. No. No.

16:23

No. No. No. No. No.

16:25

No. No. No. No. No. No. No. No. No. No. No.

16:29

before every sentence.

16:34

of me, because jeez, she got

16:37

really bored. I was like,

16:39

what do you call the parenthesis?

16:41

It's just stuff like that.

16:43

Don't we make a coin, and we may

16:46

act. God rest is so He

16:48

said I bet you can't do it from

16:50

the door all the way to the other side of the

16:52

road. But out. And it

16:54

did. Yeah. And it went out. Stuff

16:56

like it scratching my bum and sniffing my

16:58

fingers. That's gone out as well. Really?

17:00

That just speaks through the edit yet. great.

17:02

So when you do the from the door to

17:04

the bar, did the director not

17:07

go? What are you

17:09

doing? Well, it's more than often, I'm

17:11

going backwards few years. More than often,

17:13

we kind of been out with the director the night

17:15

before. So we don't we don't

17:17

have such a good laugh. he's

17:20

lying here. We go it. Do it. Well,

17:22

people seem to like that anyway. So

17:25

yeah.

17:25

No. It's I think your your character sort of gets away with that

17:27

a little bit. Doesn't he though? Because he's a bit more you

17:29

know, it it feels it feels to scare you. You

17:31

know, there's always like a scary one who's gonna

17:33

be like that end up killing someone

17:35

or attacking someone. If they start going to

17:38

the bar, it would be. Yeah. It would

17:40

get it seemed to really get away especially

17:42

when Ankaman came out and that's like

17:45

allegiously watching the Simpsons. I was

17:47

introducing those. I just got away

17:49

with murder. Yeah. And it's just

17:51

made life very very easy for me

17:53

at what I suppose I suppose your kids aren't

17:55

gonna watch it. Not many teenage boys sit

17:57

down and watch Corrie every night, do they?

17:59

No. Don't

17:59

worry

17:59

about into it. Well, did you

18:02

and you were young, are you still lobbying standards when I was a

18:04

teenager? It was it was the biggest thing with

18:06

teenagers at my school was Corey. No.

18:08

You'd joke dealing. Yeah. Of course not. No. I

18:11

was going

18:14

to I'm gonna go

18:16

down to Devon, peace of peace. bloody

18:18

race. It's made about Corrie Vamedel in

18:20

my school. That's that was the big

18:22

rivalry. So

18:24

your boys aren't

18:26

into it, but we will obviously come to real

18:28

life parenting. But on the Corie thing, what's

18:30

it like acting with the young kids?

18:33

oncari.

18:33

Well, you know what? When I was up to him

18:36

with Ellie,

18:37

Ellie Mulvaney who plays my daughter

18:39

to Amy, she was about eight when

18:42

she started. and very, very sweet,

18:44

very lovely girl, but

18:46

would would would bully me kind of into

18:48

playing with her all the time. So

18:50

it's like, right, we're gonna do this with a dull

18:52

or coloring in or whatever it was. And

18:54

I'm like, well, I'm just gonna no,

18:57

you know. So we do this. Do Anyway, but

18:59

she made me wanna have a daughter.

19:01

Oh, really? Yeah. Because

19:04

obviously, So when when a

19:06

little girl like that plays your daughter for so long and

19:08

you watched them grow, you become very

19:10

protective of them. You know, I've known her

19:12

life. I'm like, you know, her older brother,

19:14

I guess. But in the early because I've

19:16

always worked at kids since I was about

19:18

eighteen, really. I always worked like a mini

19:20

me. Yeah. And now you got

19:22

three of them. Now I've got three of them. What

19:24

if I've created are pretty

19:26

creating things that should not have not

19:28

have been created. But, yeah, she she

19:30

she made me what? Oh, I have a little girl because

19:32

such a gorgeous cute little thing,

19:34

you know? And that's like, IIII

19:37

want one of those at home, you know. So but you're not

19:39

you're not going again. Are you done you you see year

19:42

old's youngest. I've got the doctors

19:44

to get his scissors out. Yeah. Three is

19:46

two. Oh,

19:46

yeah. Talk us through that.

19:49

Well,

19:49

it was obviously actually go for it. Yeah.

19:51

It was absolutely painless. Absolute

19:53

apart apart from the big needle that goes

19:55

in your plumb, so to speak.

19:58

that was a bit of a sting. They basically a

20:00

a big needle in the balls. Big needle

20:02

in the in the sack or the actual sack

20:04

of the tester. In the actual I don't

20:07

know. because they won't let you look

20:09

now. Uh-huh. Alright. So I've got this

20:11

You're awake for the whole thing. Yeah. You're

20:13

awake for the whole thing. Yeah. But you you know, whatever

20:15

they put in there, it's it's it's it's

20:17

so numb. You can't feel a thing. Mhmm.

20:19

And then they actually make the incisions

20:21

and they they they to

20:23

kind of cut the tube and then they

20:26

they encorturize it and tie

20:28

them together, and then they sew your look. Well,

20:30

at at the head end. There's a nurse holding

20:32

my hand, and she's like

20:34

talking to me about the Lake District of

20:36

Stange reason. it's try and keep

20:38

my mind off things. But she

20:39

kept looking down the business end and pulling

20:42

this face is like, look, you

20:46

are not not helping us. We're in that

20:48

phase. Well, yeah,

20:50

I was fine. I was in a job strip for a week,

20:52

and then I was alright. It's fine.

20:54

So there's a is six year seven year gap between

20:56

your middle and youngest?

20:59

Richard. Yes. How how was that?

21:01

because You basically got all the nappies out the way, all the baby

21:03

stuff, you've got proper children that are

21:05

at school, and then the little one comes along.

21:07

Was it a bit of a a shock to the system, or

21:09

did you have, like, you enjoy it more

21:11

because you was experienced with the kids? Well,

21:14

I

21:14

think we enjoyed it more, much more. And of

21:16

course, we were a lot old and a bit more sensible

21:18

because of course, when Alfie was born, it was a

21:20

bit of inconvenience to the social life.

21:23

So we didn't really like him

21:25

for a while. How old was you

21:27

how old was you when he was born? Oh,

21:29

cranky. What will happen? The

21:31

early thirties. Early thirties. Yeah. So

21:33

we will this is, like,

21:35

we have to, like, take care of

21:37

it and stuff. This is annoying. And

21:40

then, of course, then you get

21:42

used to it and you have, you you know, you have

21:44

another

21:44

one because obviously we

21:46

wanted in to

21:46

have a, you know, a sibling. And

21:48

of course, we we adored him so

21:50

much. We were like, we need I mean, my

21:52

wife would have seven thousand children

21:55

is like mother

21:57

Manchester, you know. But

21:59

we missed our fate and because

22:02

well, So we missed Alfred. We haven't thrown

22:04

him out just yet. But

22:06

because he was getting older,

22:08

Emma was like, oh my god. He's getting so

22:10

old. my baby's

22:11

going. I'm like, it's like nine.

22:14

So we we had another

22:16

one. And she know and

22:18

and he was what what a joy? Absolute

22:21

joy is. Yeah. It's great. When you

22:23

had to own Alfie, your your eldest, how

22:25

busy was the schedule with,

22:27

like, your filming and stuff and like,

22:29

how much have all you involved? Or you did

22:31

you get maternity leave on Corey? How does

22:33

it work? And you get a couple of weeks. But

22:35

you you had to choose that couple of

22:38

weeks. And I'm like, well, I don't we're gonna

22:40

focus on. Yeah. So I was like, look and

22:42

now if it was two weeks late, so I think I've got

22:44

a week with it. actually just had a week

22:46

week week off waiting.

22:47

Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. So

22:51

but I was working a lot than

22:53

when Alfie was born, they

22:55

were eleven, twelve hour days every

22:57

day. Mhmm. And

22:58

and for months and months and months and months

23:00

and years, even I guess. And then

23:02

the name with Harry. So with but with Henry, work

23:04

could kind of beat down a bit. But,

23:07

well, it wasn't heavily

23:09

storylineed as much. got to spend a lot more time

23:11

with Henry, but also when Henry was born,

23:13

Emma was quite ill. Afterwards,

23:16

she lost a couple of paints blood.

23:18

Oh, no. Mhmm. So I had Henry

23:20

from the offset and Henry kind

23:22

of we had one of those cots

23:25

that attached to your bed. Yeah. Yeah. So he

23:27

was with us then, and he's been in our bed

23:29

ever since. So and he's and he's he's still in bed

23:31

with you now? He always comes

23:33

in. Always. Yeah.

23:35

And he comes in and he goes, can I get in

23:37

him? I'm like, no. Him me. And if it's

23:39

like very late, well, like, it's easier just

23:41

to let him in. plus love having him

23:43

in. Yeah. Yeah. And he's the youngest, did you

23:46

say? He's the youngest. Yeah. But Alfie still

23:48

gets in. because he thinks,

23:50

like, my nice now. Head of the boat. He

23:52

just gets in and he gets in for a cuddle and

23:54

then they're all three of them. And then the two dogs get

23:56

in. We actually have to buy

23:58

bigger bed. I'm like, when he's bigger bed?

23:59

Not like jaws at the bedroom. because

24:02

that's the thing it's like, you have this singer. It's like,

24:04

don't have your children in your bed,

24:06

so but the fact is most parents

24:08

like if I

24:09

quite like having them in the bed a bit. Do you

24:11

know what I mean? I'll yeah. Tell their love.

24:13

And I did a bit of research on it, not for the

24:15

I want what somebody had mentioned

24:17

it and I followed up on what they'd said. And

24:19

apparently, it's really good for them to be in the

24:21

bed some people say. You know, it has

24:24

that bond, like, you know, when you go back to

24:26

being in caves or, you know, when we were we had

24:28

trees or whatever. You know, everyone's all

24:30

huddled together. So -- Yeah. -- it's kinda

24:32

normal and natural. But, yeah, when you tell

24:34

yourself that I tell

24:35

myself that all the time, but I'm looking at

24:37

my wife, going wisely. So I don't

24:38

have to head on.

24:41

It's been a week. It

24:44

was a bump between us. Now it's an

24:46

actual thing here. and

24:49

you what you like to parent, you you seem quite

24:51

like the way you talk about them. I can imagine you're

24:53

quite kind of palling and not I

24:55

can't imagine you yourself a strong figure

24:57

of authority, distant figure of authority. Is

24:59

that fair? I do lay down the law, you know,

25:01

we are kind of best friends and everything,

25:04

but there's there is a there is a

25:06

line that I that I won't allow to be

25:08

crossed, you know, because they

25:10

do test your boundaries, and they have to pull

25:12

them up and say, look, I mean, dad, I'm I'm

25:14

not your mate, you know.

25:16

So don't talk to me like that and this

25:18

that and the other thing. Yeah. You know, they have to do is

25:20

to talk. But

25:23

for most times, we are we

25:25

do just laugh a lot and, you know, we're

25:27

very cuddly out So we do cuddle them up. What are their sort

25:29

of hobbies? because when they get to that teenage age,

25:32

it'll find their group over their

25:34

football, their gaming, or

25:36

off to rugby if they got things that they do

25:38

and you have to become a fan of it. Yeah.

25:40

The football mad and I'm not a

25:42

fan of football at all. never

25:45

have been. Oh, nice and difficult.

25:47

Yeah. So all three

25:49

of them playing. Alright. I

25:51

use a train city

25:54

for football. a football match. I mean, we

25:56

got a take up from a local

25:59

the

25:59

Italian last night and

26:02

Alfie went mad about an hour later said, you've got to

26:04

take me back because Ronaldo would walk to

26:06

it. And

26:07

he said, well, what do you want me to do? He said,

26:09

well, I want you to drop me off. I'm gonna go in and

26:11

get picture. I went, no, you're not. The

26:13

guys have any dinner. Hey.

26:15

B. You're probably firm as a load

26:17

of retired SAS. you

26:20

don't go over that. because it knew

26:22

it's not happening. So have you had to

26:24

get into football then? Yes.

26:27

but you know what? Because because the the your kids,

26:29

you know, it's very easy to do.

26:31

And they are very, very good. And

26:35

but yeah. I mean, when it's raining and

26:37

it's cold, I kind of fake an

26:39

injury. Yeah. I've got a bone in my leg,

26:41

I can't go. Yeah. But

26:43

Most of the time I'm there, mommy

26:45

is very, very, very

26:47

much a touch like a parent.

26:50

So Is she shout out? Does she shout out

26:52

of stuff? No. No. That's the one

26:54

thing we've never done. We do witness all that,

26:56

though. I'm like, well, that's

26:58

not helping. Is it? Yeah.

27:00

No. Yeah. The concentrating for

27:02

one and two, just shut

27:04

up. Mhmm. Have you ever had to say anything, you know,

27:06

to another parent if they've had a go at your kid

27:08

or their kid's a bit aggressive to your kid

27:10

if you're out to stepping because it must be weird now

27:12

they're getting out to fifteen because the kids could

27:15

beat you up essentially. Well, the

27:16

massive now, aren't they? What

27:19

is it? Why is it with this generation of

27:21

kids? That they're

27:21

all massive. That's

27:24

all land of the giants now,

27:26

isn't it? A huge

27:29

They don't get it at all.

27:31

And they're all working out as well.

27:33

Yeah. Alfie's ripped. It's

27:36

crazy because my head Even

27:40

the six year old's ripped, he says he's got

27:42

a two pack. I've

27:44

got a two pack daddy. Look

27:46

like a It doesn't fill me with hope. Like,

27:48

you're like, oh, god.

27:49

I might not have to deal with my daughter's drinking

27:51

or something because they'll be too busy, you know,

27:53

being busy. Just to calm down

27:55

on the protein shake love. It's just

27:57

too much. Just stay

27:59

with her. Two scoops only tonight.

28:01

Only two scoops of fuel. How many apples

28:03

have you had? You know?

28:04

That's really sadder

28:06

now. That's ice balled. You want

28:08

to ship for a week. But

28:11

that's one of the benefits because

28:13

smoking, drinking is the furthest

28:15

thing from from there. Well, that vaping.

28:17

Vaping is quite popular tea now because that's

28:19

not massive again state. Yeah. It's

28:21

very very much about fitness and football

28:24

and, you know, really

28:25

lucky. Really? So I I try I'm gonna try

28:27

and be like yourself. know, like, a

28:29

bit like your parents' house, quite relaxed and like, yeah,

28:31

we'll find your own way. But if my

28:33

kids came over a vape, I'd launch it.

28:35

I'll just pick I'll grab it off and

28:38

fro it. and go and and just go mental. But Things

28:40

a bit of an archaic. I'd prefer a cigarette,

28:43

Rob, to a vape.

28:43

I I think I'd respect that

28:46

more. I mean, I

28:48

I used to smoke. I

28:51

used to smoke. I hadn't spoke for that four months

28:53

and I I haven't drank for that for

28:55

for longer. and that I used to sit there,

28:57

you know, with a glass of wine and a fag and

28:59

be like, that's saying don't have a drink and

29:01

smoke. That's

29:04

my I'm gonna have to lead by example

29:06

here. Yeah. Exactly. Especially if they're all rich,

29:08

they're gonna start beating you up soon. I think the

29:10

well, they already can. They jump out. I mean, scare

29:12

me all the and they had it covered and, like,

29:14

the washbasket and stuff. Yeah. We used to bully

29:16

out that a little bit. I think when there's three boys,

29:19

we used to, like, jump out on him and jump on him

29:21

and, like, because after a while, you do get bigger in him and stronger in

29:23

him. Oh, yeah.

29:24

That's what's happening

29:25

to you. just on the cusp

29:27

at the moment of losing.

29:29

is it just constantly jumping out on your things on there? Yeah. And

29:31

they sneak in. They sneak in on the hands and knees

29:33

into the bedroom. And then they wait

29:35

for a while. They just jump out

29:38

from the sand in the bed and you're like,

29:41

hey. My daughter does that. And she's

29:43

tiny. She's thirty, but a fifteen year

29:45

old bloat. good. It's all so

29:47

cool. I just forgot the bathroom, the

29:50

hell. on

29:55

stage. That's what I

29:57

was gonna ask. So, you know, your kids are

29:59

teenage boys and not really watch you on Corey.

30:01

How do they feel about you going in

30:03

full drag? for the show, the Queen's for the night.

30:05

They've they've not

30:05

thanked me for it. We're

31:01

No. No. It's You're her

31:04

cast. I have No. I was in a cave

31:06

done in six places. Can you go?

31:08

Jesus Christ. Yeah.

31:11

When

31:12

you was unconscious, will she do most

31:14

of this sort of childcare then if your days are that

31:16

long? Was it did you feel that guilty

31:18

at point sometimes? Yeah. Well

31:20

Emma had her own company at first

31:22

there. She folded that

31:24

when Alfie was born.

31:27

And So she's only just starting this cafe. Yes. For

31:29

fifteen years, she's been housewife,

31:31

you know, a mom. Yeah. And,

31:33

yeah, I did feel a bit guilty because

31:35

she's, you know, long time to be

31:37

at home, and she will's going a bit mad

31:40

with it. So were you working literally,

31:42

like, eleven, twelve hour days, five days a

31:44

week on Yeah. I mean, it's 0II was

31:46

I was for a while. It depends

31:48

on how many episodes you're

31:50

in and how many scenes per episode

31:52

you're in. So basically, if you're in a big story

31:54

line, you're gonna be busy. Yeah. it

31:56

just so happened that around that time

31:58

I was in big storylines. There

32:00

was a Michelle with

32:02

Kim Marsh was was playing my wife at

32:04

the time, and then Kate Kelly was playing my

32:07

my girlfriend, which he cheated on with.

32:09

And and, you know, all this kind of stuff. So there

32:11

was a lot of big storylines going on

32:14

around that. time. But, you know,

32:16

I've gone a lot older now and a and a

32:18

bit plumper. I think the I think

32:21

the meant, the the focusing on the good looking

32:23

lads more than me. Things

32:25

have things have beaten down a

32:27

bit. Well, I think I was kinda destined to

32:29

be an act to because everything I

32:32

watched on TV, I'd be that person as

32:34

soon as the program had finished. Yeah. So it's

32:36

tires on my own. I was running around in on the

32:38

pants, and he does scout and I've checked in it.

32:40

How would cut myself to pieces. I don't know. If

32:42

the a team's on, I'd leave batteries,

32:44

which strings on on the stairs. I'm going

32:46

like, I don't step on that stairs. I'm

32:49

on So all this stuff. But I've

32:51

I I was always playing the army. I was always

32:53

outside me. That's completely downloading.

32:56

you know, in in the camouflage gear, doing, you

32:58

know, doing garden, hop in with a wooden

33:00

gun. Right. That's what exactly you

33:02

know. Yeah. This must be a soldier.

33:05

Oh,

33:05

really? Yeah. That's an old way

33:07

to me. You had been a good soldier? Nothing

33:09

could have been oh, you had a lot of practice.

33:14

on the show, Josh -- Yeah. -- Queen's

33:16

finale, each celebrity's given

33:19

a a category within the drag. So some of the

33:21

lip syncing, some are singing. Summer

33:23

doing magic. You did a comedy set,

33:25

and it was really good. Don't want to give away too much,

33:27

but he was really good and really accomplished

33:29

for someone That was their first ever

33:31

gig. Is there is there a comedy career

33:33

in the pipeline? Is the second part

33:35

of Simon Gregson's career in entertainment?

33:37

What we were thinking about quite

33:39

a while ago. I'm I'm very good friends who

33:41

have been for a while with a guy called John

33:43

Maloney. Yeah. No, John Maloney. Well, yeah, hit

33:45

me and him. We're thinking of

33:47

doing well, write in some comedy for

33:50

me, and then me doing all the comedy

33:52

clubs in in in in the

33:54

UK. And and for

33:56

charity, Yeah. So

33:56

I was like, well, that's a nice thing to pull back

33:58

on because I'm like, it's for

33:59

charity, so people might laugh. Don't

34:02

do it for charity. Do it for

34:05

you. Fuck and then out in

34:07

the charity gig once you've got your gear together. Yeah.

34:09

But I've always been very

34:11

interested in it because I

34:13

just love comedy, you know, and a big

34:16

funny you guys and watch all

34:18

your stuff and everybody else. And,

34:20

you know, I just find it just just just

34:22

think it's a brilliant, you know,

34:24

scale, you know. I just think a buck.

34:26

I I can imagine it's it it can be

34:28

very hard. I was gonna ask

34:30

because, oh, what's holidays now like now

34:32

with teenage boys? Are they

34:34

bored? They don't wanna go away with you? Or are they

34:36

still loving it? No. They

34:38

they they love it. We have kinda two separate

34:40

holidays. So Emma takes the boys

34:42

on, like because they love, like, you

34:44

know, Benadorm in parts of Spain. Well,

34:46

I can't go because it would just be like APA

34:48

Yeah. You just have a phone shift in your

34:50

face every two seconds, which has happened. So

34:52

Emma takes the boys alone on

34:54

what for for a week on one of those. And then

34:57

we go for, like, ten days, two weeks

34:59

to somewhere nice, you know? Yeah. A

35:01

bit more a bit quieter. Well,

35:03

yeah. Kind of money doesn't buy your friends, but it

35:05

buys you a better class of enemy kind

35:08

of thing. You

35:11

couldn't survive in Benadol more like

35:13

a bricks and broad place like that.

35:15

No. Yeah. We'll get a villa basically. Yeah. But

35:17

then that is a bit boring for they like

35:19

the hotels and the other kids and all that

35:21

kind of stuff in the pool. But As as long

35:23

as they've got a pool and as long as they've got

35:25

a ball, they're fine. I mean, when Emma

35:28

took a massive deal. a a

35:30

polar very much line stance.

35:32

Yeah. But yeah.

35:34

They would when Emma took him, they

35:36

found like a local

35:38

fiber side pitch, and she had

35:40

to take them every day. She had to buy them

35:42

football boots because there's the one thing you don't

35:44

take on holiday. Oh, really?

35:46

should've just gone to goals for a week. Yeah. It's on side place.

35:48

Yeah. They'd love it. So where

35:50

have they got this from? It's You're

35:53

not interested in football too. I'm not interested

35:56

in football. And Emma was that

35:58

Emma used to play football when she was a kid.

35:59

And Emma's dad's massive in

36:02

the football. Right. Yeah. So they may have picked it up that way. And of

36:04

course, all the mates at school play football. And

36:06

I guess if you start, you you become

36:08

good at something, you you

36:10

become a bit more popular within the account

36:12

of And it's your friendship groups

36:14

all involved. Does that even catch up

36:16

with them? So what how you if you're all playing football on

36:18

Sunday, how you get into them to all the games?

36:20

Is it logistics and aren't it? It

36:22

depends where they go. We're very, very

36:24

lucky with

36:26

them as mom and dad and their grandparents.

36:28

When they were a lot younger, they used to kind of

36:30

fight over who would look after them at the

36:32

weekend. So we did have

36:34

our weekend. we're absolutely so

36:36

blessed with it all. It's so important to be near

36:38

people that will help. Oh, absolutely.

36:40

It's it's it's it's no prizes

36:42

to have been so, like, I could do what I may

36:44

own and all you know, you do need help. And

36:46

if you can hear people that can help Oh, yeah. I

36:48

mean, you need a night off, you know. And, you

36:50

know, you need to recharge the batteries,

36:52

you know. and, you know, sometimes not get up as early. But

36:54

yeah. And his dad will come and pick them up.

36:56

I'm able to drive now anyway.

36:58

So I'll drop them off, but walk

37:00

it across the web fields.

37:02

Is is there a note for me? because if a slip, I'm gonna

37:05

back to square one. Oh, go. Did they

37:07

have to write that into

37:07

Coronation Street that you broke your left? Yeah.

37:10

They've written it

37:12

in yet. did you have to film a your already

37:14

broken leg? Or did it? because we just kinda

37:16

spoke about it, you know. It's kinda

37:18

like when Bobby Ewing woke up in

37:20

the shower. No one cares

37:22

after two minutes. Yeah.

37:24

He should be one line guy. No. You heard Steve's

37:26

broke his leg. Blah blah blah blah.

37:28

I mean, you've committee wins in.

37:31

Hi, guys. Yeah.

37:34

It is busy. You know, I I think it's only

37:36

Tuesday we've got where we're not taking them

37:39

training. Really? Yeah. Yeah. A lot

37:41

of training in all separate days because they played

37:43

for a Saturday and a Sunday team, the two

37:45

older boys. Oh my god.

37:48

Yeah. God. So that is their life, basically. Yeah. Although

37:50

well, not only that. Yeah. Well, am I talking about play

37:52

a Saturday team and a Sunday team and they

37:54

play for the school team relative to them?

37:57

you know, I saw, you know, when I clap,

37:59

Moans about the ramen to play, you

38:01

know, three games in two weeks. So you're

38:03

like, mate, these kids are playing in three times

38:05

a week and gone to school, but I'm still on

38:08

work. Yeah. Exactly. Yeah.

38:10

And how about in that academic stuff? Are

38:12

they sort of still focusing on that as well as to

38:14

work? Yeah. Alfi was kinda going a bit by the way side because he got

38:16

it in his head. He will be a football one

38:18

day. Maybe that was my fault saying if

38:20

you if if you

38:22

think it dream it big

38:24

enough, it will happen.

38:25

Yeah. And then I realized,

38:27

so I said to

38:30

you know, the better you are at school, the more, they'll

38:32

like that as well because it shows you

38:34

dedicated, especially in something you're not

38:37

really that you can't be bothered do it. If he's showed

38:39

dedication towards it, they'll they'll like that.

38:41

His his homework's improved massively

38:44

since -- Oh, yeah. --

38:46

good technique. And Harry Harry's good in school anyway. So Yeah.

38:48

Yeah. Yeah. Josh, we did

38:50

the final question for Simon. It's it's

38:52

a class final question that

38:54

we always do. So

38:55

it's very simple. And what one

38:58

thing does your wife do

39:00

parenting that annoys you, but

39:02

you haven't said it to her, but where she listens as

39:04

podcast, that's a way to communicate it.

39:06

And also as a

39:08

kind of felt that was too

39:10

negative. We realized that two and a half years into the

39:12

podcast. What one thing does she

39:14

do? How would you phrase this bit

39:16

wrong? But one thing she

39:18

does is amazing and that you absolutely

39:20

love, but you don't always tell her how good that is. Yeah. But we're really focusing

39:22

on the first one. Yeah.

39:28

I think the first

39:31

one -- Yeah. -- is

39:34

and

39:35

if if I get

39:37

a bit too shouty with them.

39:40

It lose lose my temper too much. I'm

39:42

told, you know, like, you

39:44

know, just calm down a bit.

39:46

And I But when you lose your temper, there are people

39:48

on the space station that can hear it.

39:50

You know? Yeah. Hey, slide on

39:52

in a minute. So

39:54

there is that. But the one

39:56

thing she she does which is amazing is

39:58

that she never lets them

40:00

sit still or be bored you

40:03

know, she'll take them there, and everywhere.

40:05

You know, if if it's a school holidays,

40:07

it's like they have to be doing

40:09

something every day. And,

40:12

you know, she she we

40:14

we can't set up tight shares or anything.

40:17

She'll always make time and do

40:19

something with them, you know. nice. Nice. Yeah.

40:20

It's good. Not with me. She

40:23

hates me. Yeah. She's like she's

40:25

making the scones. That's

40:27

the main thing. This is it. Yeah. I'm just a guy with the flower. Do you

40:29

wanna give the do you wanna give the cafe a shout out so

40:31

the listeners can come and buy a stone?

40:34

Oh, yeah. and then

40:36

molly tea rooms in winds

40:38

low. More tea rooms,

40:40

40:42

41:28

person. And for someone who's been on telly

41:30

for thirty three years and so fame, he's

41:32

so level headed, would you how

41:34

do you feel if your door

41:36

as we're playing football, six nights a week, Rob. Would you find it thrilling or

41:39

stressful or both? As long as

41:41

they're enjoying it and they're focused and

41:43

sort of engage with it, then

41:45

I don't mind because you've got to do something with your

41:48

time. It I mean, I was gigging that much

41:50

when I was becoming a comedian. So if you've

41:52

got a passion for it, much

41:54

kids have a passion for summering and we're out every

41:56

night the week doing it than then just sit, I'm going, I

41:58

don't know what I wanna

42:00

do. Yeah.

42:00

Yeah. And

42:01

also, I love it depends, I like, I love

42:03

football. If it was rugby, I think I'd be

42:05

livid. Oh my god. The thought of six nights

42:07

in rugby a week. swim, like Swimmings have made sure

42:09

that that's not gonna happen. Well, my jeans are really quite

42:12

good at swimming. So I'm a bit worried about that.

42:14

Swimmings are boring, long because

42:16

you've got sit in a fucking

42:18

boiling room for oh

42:20

god. because I don't mind the outside

42:22

watching the football when it's like bad weather

42:24

because that you just I'll get quite excited about buying the right clothes

42:26

for it. Yeah. Yeah. That's nice. A nice ballgame. was exciting. I see some park

42:28

football if I'm running past or something. No. That's

42:30

I'd drive a slow down when I'm driving.

42:33

do an extra loop when I'm walking the dog if I season

42:35

park, well, I love it. Yeah. I always dream

42:38

of driving past the Sunday league game and seeing

42:40

a goal going. Oh, yeah.

42:42

What a thrill happened? Never happened. Never

42:45

happened. But yeah.

42:47

42:49

my fucking nut in.

42:51

Alright. We'll see

42:54

you on Tuesday. See you on

42:56
