00:00Well it's Friday morning and here I am behind bars. Not something I expected to do. I'm
00:12taking part in a thing called Jail and Bail, which is for Maggie's Cancer Care Centre.
00:15I'm hoping to raise thousands of pounds today. Myself and my five colleagues and friends
00:19have all been arrested by police officers this morning. We were taken in front of a
00:23real live sheriff, Sheriff Williamson, and we were charged. Now my charge was going to
00:27this fella, Bruce Springsteen, too many times. Clearly it's an all guilty charge. You can
00:33never see the boss too many times. But we've been put in prison uniforms. I've got my prison
00:38tattoos here, which are pretty cool. I've got a little hat as well, which I've left in the room.
00:42And we spent the day trying to raise our bails. I need to raise a thousand pounds in order to
00:46get out by four o'clock this evening. If you can help within the nation, that would be absolutely
00:51fabulous. Every penny we raise goes to Maggie's Fife, which is based in Goodcody. It does an
00:56amazing service, supporting people who have got a diagnosis of cancer and their families.
01:01And if we hit our target, we'll be match fund as well, so they could raise potentially £12,000
01:06in one day, which is an amazing sum of money, and it helps to make sure that Maggie's keeps
01:10going every single day of the week. So my hardship today is about to spend the day behind bars with
01:16the boss. I can't even cope with that one. If you can make a donation, that would be absolutely
01:20fabulous. My thanks for your support. If you could share this little link on your social
01:24media platforms, even better. And it means I can go home and get out tonight. Thank you very much.
03:35Two, three. Maggie's!
