00:00 So, Sean, we've been talking about this tattoo tribute.
00:02 Oh, show, come on.
00:04 Hoping it's not on your buttock.
00:05 Well, maybe hoping it is on your buttock.
00:07 Let's see.
00:07 Let's see.
00:08 There it is there.
00:10 Olympic rings.
00:11 Oh, the Olympic rings.
00:14 Why have you got them?
00:15 I love tattoos, but why have you got them?
00:16 Right, so the reason why I got it, obviously in 2004,
00:20 I won Mastermind.
00:21 And just after winning Mastermind,
00:23 I realized how grateful and fortunate I was to have won it.
00:26 And--
00:26 Let's see it again.
00:27 Show it.
00:27 Sorry, they want to see it again.
00:28 Sorry, they want to see it again.
00:29 I don't know why you talk.
00:30 Let's have a zoom in.
00:31 You've got Mastermind on there as well.
00:32 Yeah, and then the other one, we've got 2004.
00:34 All right, calm down, Sean.
00:35 Calm down.
00:36 [LAUGHTER]
00:36 You calm down, Jimmy.
00:37 You calm down.
00:38 [LAUGHTER]
00:40 And it was one of the greatest achievements of my life.
00:44 And I remember when I had the hard times and difficult times
00:48 in my life.
00:49 And I remember watching you, I followed your career
00:52 in the '80s and '90s, how you were really a great runner.
00:56 And sometimes you had that adversity
00:58 in terms of the injuries and setbacks and disappointments.
01:02 And it all came together in Athens 2004.
01:06 And I felt that sort of empathy with you
01:09 because I've just won Mastermind.
01:10 Nobody knew at the time.
01:11 But you win, becoming a double Olympic champion,
01:15 finally achieving your lifelong ambition of becoming a champion.
01:20 I sort of sympathize with that.
01:21 So I thought to myself, I'm going
01:23 to have a tattoo done in Europe.
01:26 And on the 20th of November, which
01:28 was the 20th anniversary of me being called to the bar,
01:31 I went to the tattoo parlor.
01:33 And I got that done.
01:34 And I got those done as well.
01:35 [APPLAUSE]
01:38 The ladies don't know this, but I've
01:41 got something for you to put around your neck
01:42 for the rest of the show.
01:43 [GASPS]
01:44 Oh, wow.
01:45 Oh.
01:46 There you go.
01:46 I want him back.
01:47 I want him back.
01:48 Of course, of course.
01:49 Wow.
01:50 For the rest of the show, because that was such an honor.
01:53 And you are such an amazing guy.
01:56 and a very talented yourself, bringing us to mind.
01:58 Well, I don't know about that.
