00:00The routines were pointlessly intricate, pointlessly.

00:06I have no dance background,

00:08and here we are doing these intricate things.

00:13So I would have trouble picking up the steps,

00:17which would make me look like I was being lazy.

00:21This was brought up in not a favourable way.

00:35Let's just say,

00:39Nigel wasn't very happy with my application.

00:45It won't be difficult to kick you out of the band

00:50and get somebody else with dark hair from Stoke-on-Trent

00:54and call him Robbie.

00:56That's what I remember.

00:58Oh, I'm stressed, man, between me and you.

01:00Yeah, between me and you, go on.

01:02I don't know the show yet.

01:03It made me feel like my place within the band

01:07was never safe or guaranteed.

01:12Why don't you do that, take that, take that, then a party.

01:15There's so many things, I'm just, my head's all in the blitz.

01:18So I'm just going to have to separate it from my mind.

01:22It's all a bit strange.

01:25Not loved. Not loved.

01:27Not even liked.

01:29And, um, I was 16.

01:35Robbie said he just wanted you to love him, but you never did.

01:39Well, yeah, what a great line.

01:42I think we all loved each other and still do.

01:45Expelliarmus.

01:48He's clever, isn't he?

01:52It's my fault because part of the thing that we discussed

01:56was about them telling stories.

01:59Robbie's brilliant at it.
