00:00At what point did you think,
00:02hang on, this is a different experience
00:03to what everyone else is having.
00:04At what point did you start raising concerns?
00:07Week one, third day.
00:10I've got texts to the producer on day three going,
00:15this is awful, he hates me,
00:16I don't know what I'm doing wrong.
00:18I'm trying my best, I promise you.
00:20So that was the first week, yeah.
00:22And were there further discussions then?
00:24Many, yeah, many.
00:26And that was with the people working with you at the BBC,
00:29so there were concerns about how you were certainly
00:32managing things.
00:33And I was going into the rehearsal room every day
00:36because I've been in rehearsal rooms for 32 years.
00:39I'm in a rehearsal room at the moment,
00:40which is one of the most beautiful, safe spaces.
00:44And I know what rehearsal rooms are supposed to be like.
00:48And I don't care what background you're from,
00:51whether it's dancing, acting, singing,
00:53you have a duty of care to bring into that rehearsal room
00:56compassion, understanding, sensitivity, and kindness.
