00:00Once when one of the New York mayors was over, Mayor Giuliani, he was over here being feted
00:22and there was a great big lunch and it was Valentine's Day and we had all kind of heart
00:27related things sprinkled apart on the table. And so I got one of the hearts and I wrote
00:32on the back of it, be my valentine xxxxx and I gave it to one of the waiters and I said
00:36take it away. So he shimmered over, Mayor Giuliani who'd got his girlfriend or his wife
00:40with him anyway and he received this and he went like that and he looked at it and she
00:43went, I felt so happy. Adrian Edmondson gave the answer to that, he said don't get divorced.
01:00Long marriage is that, exactly that, but actually blessed. Just work it out. I think a lot of
01:08it starts rather boringly on respect. You've got to respect your partner, you've got to
01:12love them, you never feel contempt. If you have contempt in your body at any stage don't
01:17even start going out with them. You've got to pretty much adore them, have a bit of a
01:21crush on them I think. Don't spend too much time together all the time, don't be together
01:26on top of each other all the time. Try to be good and try to treat that person as a
01:30special person all the time. Like mad, make them precious and loved.
