:19:08
Babe. Absolutely, fire away.
:19:12
Mia, Mia, would you turn that down?
:19:16
What is that?
:19:18
That was the Christmas effort
from the once great Billy Mack.
:19:21
Oh, dear me, how are the mighty fallen.
:19:24
I can safely say that is the worst record
I've heard this century...
:19:30
Oh, and coincidentally,
I believe Billy will be a guest
:19:34
on my friend Mike's show
in a few minutes' time.
:19:37
Welcome back, Bill.
:19:39
Billy, welcome back to the airwaves.
:19:42
New Christmas single,
cover of Love Is All Around.
:19:45
Except we've changed
the word "love" to "Christmas".
:19:50
Yes, is that an important message
to you, Bill?
:19:53
(Snorts) Not really, Mike.
:19:55
Christmas is a time for people
with someone they love in their lives.
:20:00
- And that's not you?
- That's not me, Michael.
:20:02
When I was young and successful,
I was greedy and foolish
:20:06
and now I'm left with no one,
wrinkled and alone.
:20:10
- Wow. Thanks for that, Bill.
- For what?
:20:13
For actually giving
a real answer to a question.
:20:15
It doesn't often happen here
at Radio Watford, I can tell you.
:20:19
- Ask me anything, I'll tell you the truth.
- Best shag you ever had?
:20:23
- Britney Spears.
- Wow.
:20:25
No, only kidding! (Snorts)
:20:28
- She was rubbish.
- OK, here's one.
:20:30
How do you think the new record
compares to your old, classic stuff?
:20:34
Come on, Mikey, you know as well as I do
the record's crap.
:20:38
(Bill laughing)
:20:40
But wouldn't it be great
if number one this Christmas
:20:43
wasn't some smug teenager
:20:45
but an old ex-heroin addict
searching for a comeback at any price?
:20:49
Those young popsters come Christmas
will be stretched out naked
:20:53
with a cute bird balancing on their balls
:20:56
and I'll be stuck in some dingy flat
with me manager Joe,
:20:59
ugliest man in the world,
