24
338330
5490
05:43
out of my bed as I shuffled over to the window
25
343820
5640
05:49
open the curtains that is what I saw the actual view looking over the hills and
26
349460
7260
05:56
the forests into the distance so there it is this morning the view from my
27
356720
7050
06:03
window and it is a very nice day today dare I say that it feels a little bit
28
363770
8579
06:12
like spring today it actually feels very spring-like having said that it's still
29
372349
7651
06:20
quite chilly in fact can you believe it there is a forecast for some snow
30
380000
7860
06:27
tomorrow although between you and me I don't think we will get much snow but
31
387860
6029
06:33
apparently we are going to get some snow over the next 24 hours but I don't think
32
393889
5611
06:39
there will be much of it so there it is the view this morning let's have a look
33
399500
5820
06:45
into the distance towards Shrewsbury there it is in the distance you can see
34
405320
6300
06:51
the Cathedral in Shrewsbury looking over oh yes and as you can see the view isn't
35
411620
9000
07:00
too bad it's a little bit misty but it doesn't look too bad so there it is a
36
420620
5669

07:46
we can't have a spring for you without a lovely close-up of the daffodils in the
43
466280
7199
07:53
garden so it is a nice day maybe later I'm not sure I'm not making any promises
44
473479
7560
08:01

45
481039

9331
08:53
Easter Sunday lots of things were going on in this local area mr. Steve and
53
533120
6300
08:59
myself were out and about the other day and we went to a very special place in
54
539420
6990
09:06
Much Wenlock it's a little place where we always like to stop off at and I
55
546410
6090
09:12
would like to show you something today something very special and this is
56
552500
5160
09:17
something that I have created myself it is a little thing that I like to call
57
557660
6330
09:23
the puddle dance
58
563990
3740
10:22
it is a Sunday but it is no ordinary Sunday because it is Easter Sunday so a
59
622999
8471
10:31
big hello to all those celebrating Easter and of course a big hi to those
60
631470
6090
10:37
who aren't you don't have to celebrate Easter it isn't the law you know well I
61
637560
7079
10:44
did mention mr. Steve a few moments ago so I suppose I had better press the big
62
644639
8281
10:52
button that allows everyone in the world to see mr. Steve yes ladies and
63
652920
7200
11:00
gentlemen I give you His Royal Highness mr. Steve hello everyone and of course
64
660120
10730
11:10
unusually mr. Duncan I'm here for the full two hours today we heard instead of
65
670850
5979
11:16
coming on at three o'clock so we hello to everybody out there in the world of
66
676829
3690
11:20
English we have a whole two hours of mr. Steve a whole two hours oh my mr. Duncan
67
680519
5880
11:26
what were you doing is splashing around in that puddle of course that's our
68
686399
7351
11:33
special puddle isn't it mr. Duncan that is our very special place mr. Steve and
69
693750
5069
11:38
that is a place where we always stop off at we always stop off at after walking
70
698819
4770
11:43
in because it takes us about 25 minutes to walk in over muddy fields and our
71
703589
6870
11:50
boots are covered in mud particularly after it's been raining at this time of
72
710459
4201
11:54
the year so we like to wash our boots because of course we're going into shops
73
714660
6570
12:01
and we're going into into the tea shop and we don't like to trudge in there
74
721230
4890
12:06
trying with our boots covered in mud no we
75
726120
3750
12:09
don't like to go into someone's someone's business premises with muddy
76
729870
4620
12:14
boots because they they don't like it and of course you might transfer mud
77
734490
4349
12:18
onto the carpet and so we like to wash our boots in puddles basically that the
78
738839
8310
12:27
biggest puddle in Much Wenlock it is no ordinary puddle it is no ordinary puddle
79
747149
7081
12:34
because that's the place we always stop off
80
754230
2290
12:36
yes and that's where I was doing my little poodle dance did you see that I
81
756520
5069
12:41
think that will actually I think that's going to catch on I think the big thing
82
761589
4801
12:46
of summer 2018 will be the puddle dance and if you can't find a puddle you can
83
766390
6960
12:53
always make your own puddle and then then you can have a little dance in it
84
773350
5010
12:58
so I will show you the puddle dance a little bit later on but of course that's
85
778360
4410
13:02
no ordinary puddle because that puddle belongs to someone very famous we have a
86
782770
8189
13:10
few famous people living here in Much Wenlock don't we Steve well nobody's
87
790959
6031
13:16
more famous than you mr. Dave well of course I'm the most famous person who
88
796990
5969
13:22
will ever see much Wayman lot but there are other people as well there is a lady
89
802959
4380
13:27
who used to be on the TV and in movies and she lives right here in Much Wenlock
90
807339
6961
13:34
now here is an interesting story i won't i won't give too much away straight away
91
814300
5220
13:39
because i just want to mention something else steve there was a very special
92
819520
4410
13:43
service taking place wasn't there for Easter in Much Wenlock yes in fact we've
93
823930
6029
13:49
been here for five years I didn't realize that
94
829959
3301
13:53
of course services are taking place all over churches throughout the UK many
95
833260
6480
13:59
other countries as well too to celebrate Easter and Good Friday bringing one in
96
839740
8880
14:08
particular and but what we didn't realize is that these normally take
97
848620
3930
14:12
place sort of with inside a church but obviously in Much Wenlock they've got
98
852550
5279
14:17
this tradition of having an outdoor service of celebration of Good Friday
99
857829
6781
14:24
hmm and if we happen to be there on that when it happened yes it's worth
100
864610
5849
14:30
mentioning that Easter takes place over more than one day so today is Easter
101
870459
3961
14:34
Sunday but there are special celebrations on Good Friday as well and
102
874420
4350
14:38
we happened to stumble across we happen to see one of the celebrations taking
103
878770
8580
14:47
place in the in the square in the the middle of Much Wenlock and
104
887350
4659
14:52
what we didn't realize is that when we arrived that this part of this service
105
892009
6510
14:58
was going to be involved this film star that lives in Much Wenlock ah but you're
106
898519
6031
15:04
giving too much away there let's have a look first of all shut Stephen let's
107
904550
4740
15:09
have a look first of all at the Easter service that took place and then we can
108
909290
5159
15:14
talk about what happened before it and then we can talk very exciting we can
109
914449
4021
15:18
talk about the really exciting bit
110
918470
4039
18:06
so there it is setting the scene on Good Friday and of course setting the
111
1086669
7601
18:14
atmosphere for the whole of Easter and there it was in much Wenlock a special
112
1094270
4560
18:18
service that took place and we were there at the time but we didn't know
113
1098830
4979
18:23
that all of this was going to happen did we Steve we know we didn't we had no
114
1103809
4771
18:28
actual idea that this was going to happen so yes I've never seen that
115
1108580
8030
18:36
procession through the streets before like that I think they do it every year
116
1116610
6870
18:43
we were very lucky it was just pure coincidence that on that day two special
117
1123480
6610
18:50
things happen that was one of them we are talking about the other one later
118
1130090
2730
18:52
mr. Duncan is hoping I don't give they give the game away no we can talk about
119
1132820
5489
18:58
it now all right don't go so excited it's not an official
120
1138309
5911
19:04
secret it links back to that puddle yes that puddle again yes that puddle
121
1144220
8569
19:46
dooby-dooby-doo so there it was so that's the petal that I was splashing
122
1186230
4930
19:51
around in the other day yes but it's no ordinary purple because it belongs to a
123
1191160
5850
19:57
famous celebrity well those can you see notice behind mr. Duncan there are some
124
1197010
7860
20:04
very big ornate wrought iron gates yes we do obviously look like they're
125
1204870
6900
20:11
leading to somewhere very special and they are indeed leading to somewhere
126
1211770
5310
20:17
very special they're leading to someone's home they're also leading to
127
1217080
4920
20:22
what was the a part of the old Abbey I was hoping you weren't gonna say that I
128
1222000
7850
20:29
was thinking that I thought I hope Steve doesn't say exactly where the location
129
1229940
4690
20:34
is but well but the thing is we've been splashing in that puddle every time well
130
1234630
7530
20:42
during the winter when it's muddy and we need to wash the boots hmm every time
131
1242160
4440
20:46
we've been coming too much one look for the last five years yeah and you can go
132
1246600
9930
20:56
on mr. Duncan I'll let you continue the story because you've always wanted to
133
1256530
4340
21:00
meet this particular person okay so well it happened so first of all we call we
134
1260870
6130
21:07
call the purple Gabrielle's lake as a joke as a joke and the reason why it's
135
1267000
6120
21:13
it's a joke is because we are playing on words because the person in question is
136
1273120
5880
21:19
a very famous actress called Gabrielle Drake and she was in many TV shows over
137
1279000
8460
21:27
the years many big TV shows we remember her don't we Steve yeah many many years
138
1287460
5940
21:33
ago I was hoping to get some pictures up from her early days but I haven't got
139
1293400
4680
21:38
any on the screen so I'll try and put one on later on hopefully I'll try and
140
1298080
4470
21:42
get one arranged but yes a very famous actress would you like to see the
141
1302550
4890
21:47
photograph well known in the UK because she
142
1307440
3550
21:50
actually came out she came out if I gates as we as you were splashing in the
143
1310990
5790
21:56
puggles so when I was splashing around in the pebbles can you believe it
144
1316780
5370
22:02
she actually came out of the gates and this was not pre-arranged there were two
145
1322150
5550
22:07
other people there at the time and they were meeting her and they were meeting
146
1327700
3900
22:11
the vicar all outside but we didn't know that was happening we were just washing
147
1331600
4110
22:15
our boots in the puddle outside our gates and suddenly she appeared as if by
148
1335710
6690
22:22
magic and so I got very excited about the whole thing and asked if it would be
149
1342400
6120
22:28
possible to have a photograph taken with her and that's exactly what happened so
150
1348520
5430
22:33
here I am looking very pleased with myself so there is the photograph and
151
1353950
4800
22:38
there is the very same lady Gabrielle Drake a very famous actress I didn't
152
1358750
6840
22:45
want to say exactly where she is but I think Steve's slightly given that away
153
1365590
4020
22:49
now but it says on Twitter look who I bumped into today whilst out
154
1369610
5820
22:55
walking it's the one and only Gabrielle Drake I've lived in Much Wenlock for
155
1375430
5430
23:00
over five years but this is my first time meeting her it's her birthday today
156
1380860
5430
23:06
as well so on Friday it was actually her
157
1386290
3540
23:09
birthday and I knew it I knew that it was her birthday but I didn't realize I
158
1389830
6240
23:16
was going to meet her you knew it was her birthday because you you're on a
159
1396070
5130
23:21
Twitter feed that tells you when celebrities birthdays are yes yes in the
160
1401200
5010
23:26
morning of the Friday mr. Duncan said Oh risk its Gabrielle's Drake's birthday
161
1406210
4470
23:30
today so we sort of laughed about it and then we went in there we saw her and we
162
1410680
3600
23:34
said happy birthday she said how do you know it's my birthday she was she was
163
1414280
4140
23:38
quite surprised that we knew it was her birthday yeah so I think she was quite
164
1418420
5310
23:43
quite overwhelmed by it but she didn't want to have a picture taken with me
165
1423730
4200
23:47
first of all which is surprising but but then she realized that that I was mr.
166
1427930
5610

25:36
square as well with the cross and you could see the The Vicar there yeah

188
1541059
4261
25:45

189
1545320
4109
25:49
he said are you mr. Duncan from YouTube and I said yes I didn't say that
190
1549429
4771
25:54

1554200
5909
26:00

26:15

195
1575210
4360
26:19
can't be rude today who said I'm being rude I think we all know that you were
196
1579570
6000
26:25
being I wasn't doing good maybe you were being rude Steve I wasn't I don't know
197
1585570
4320
26:29
what you're talking about anyway we met the famous actress stage
198
1589890
4260
26:34
and movie star Gabrielle Drake and you can look it up
199
1594150
4170
26:38
you can put it you look it up on Google okay and and but we remember her from
200
1598320
5700
26:44
UFO this was a series made late nineteen sixties and she was wearing a purple wig
201
1604020
7080
26:51
and a very tight top which let's let's just say it showed off her attributes
202
1611100
7470
26:58
yes and that's what she was in a sleeve famous on it we've got it we've got
203
1618570
5400
27:03
we've got everything we need there she's almost hanging okay she was known for
204
1623970
5250
27:09
her attractiveness yes okay people are now googling it anyway
205
1629220
5010
27:14
you know they've all got computers I don't I just said that the people
206
1634230
3000
27:17
watching us have computers I know I just said they've literally the moment her
207
1637230
5340
27:22
name came up on the screen they were all typing away typing it in that's what I
208
1642570
4650
27:27
think perhaps as a new entry now in Wikipedia that says Gabrielle Drake met
209
1647220
4200
27:31
mr. Duncan on Friday I'm gonna tell you if as the lady I'm gonna tell you a
210
1651420
6420
27:37
funny story Steve I actually on Wikipedia I actually put myself on to
211
1657840
8700
27:46
the Much Wenlock page here we go talking about Biggie Gehrig actually
212
1666540
4920
27:51
typed on to Wikipedia that YouTube English teacher mr. Duncan lives in Much
213
1671460
7080
27:58
Wenlock because I I can edit on Wikipedia yeah
214
1678540
5130
28:03
and I put it above Gabrielle Drake because Gabrielle Drake is mentioned on
215
1683670
6570
28:10
the Wikipedia page for Much Wenlock but I'm not so I thought I thought well I
216
1690240
5700
28:15
live in much when walking I'm famous on YouTube infamous so I put myself on
217
1695940
5580
28:21
there and can you believe someone else went on and removed me they took me off
218
1701520
5039
28:26
haha very nice so they actually took me off they actually deleted me so I spent
219
1706559
7620
28:34
ages writing on the actual page for Much Wenlock tit YouTube English teacher mr.
220
1714179
7590
28:41
Duncan lives in Much Wenlock he's very famous on YouTube well there was the
221
1721769
5191
28:46
problem you put yourself a but above Gabrielle Drake I said you just put
222
1726960
4169
28:51
yourself underneath I think you just stayed on I think more famous than you
223
1731129
4410
28:55
mr. Duncan yes I think that may have been the sin I think I I think that was
224
1735539
4980
29:00
a step too far I put myself above Gabrielle I think if she'd known who you
225
1740519
4561
29:05
were and she came out of her gates she just set that bouncer on you she didn't
226
1745080
5370
29:10
know who I was she didn't she said you're the English teacher he's making
227
1750450
5309
29:15
that up don't believe that you're the famous English teacher so yes so there
228
1755759
5941
29:21
we go so she she of course an autograph was asked for so so I didn't mind I gave
229
1761700
6419
29:28
her one I gave her a mr. Duncan I gave her a signed photo east egoist that's a
230
1768119
8010
29:36
person with a a gigantic ego who thinks a lot of themselves I know what you're
231
1776129
4231
29:40
talking about I am the most modest person on the planet it sounds like it
232
1780360
5490
29:45
do you how many modest people put themselves
233
1785850
4439
29:50
into Wikipedia but sometimes sometimes you'll be surprised how many people
234
1790289
5520
29:55
write their own Wikipedia entry trust me actually you see if enough people do
235
1795809
6600
30:02
that if anyone out there is a Wikipedia editor maybe you'd like to put mr.
236
1802409
6061
30:08
Duncan in there yes because I can't do it obviously because it's my own entry
237
1808470
4169
30:12
but if someone else wants to edit on the Much Wenlock page that mr. Duncan from
238
1812639
7740
30:20
YouTube that the well-known English teacher lives in Much Wenlock as well as
239
1820379
6540
30:26
Gabrielle Drake who used to be on television in movies they can I'll get
240
1826919

267
1992120
5700
33:17
uses in the English language it has many many uses in fact I think it's almost
268
1997820

269
2003789

5190
34:07
lesson all about that very subject what is April Fool's Day

9080
34:25
we all like to have a laugh once in a while I know I do
278
2065240
4450
34:29
however some enjoy it more than others one of the ways of raising a titter is
279
2069690
6089
34:35
to play a trick on someone or to prank someone into believing something that is
280
2075779
4441
34:40
not true or real fortunately for those who enjoy playing the occasional prank
281
2080220
6059
34:46
or hoaxes on others there is a special day put aside for just such an event of
282
2086279
5971
34:52
course I'm talking about April Fool's Day
283
2092250
6619
34:59
April Fool's Day occurs each year on the first day of April on this day people
284
2099190
5500
35:04
will play tricks and pull pranks on each other for fun most of the pranks are
285
2104690
5010
35:09
harmless and cause no real upset while some create anger outrage and even
286
2109700
7610
35:17
mass hysteria there have been some rather adventurous pranks played on the
287
2117310
6730
35:24
general public over the years for example in 1980 the BBC reported that
288
2124040
6540
35:30
the four clock faces on the famous Big Bend clock tower would be replaced by
289
2130580
6090
35:36
digital numeral readouts many people called in to complain before it was
290
2136670
6330
35:43
revealed that the whole thing was a big hoax in 1978 a wealthy adventurer
291
2143000
8040
35:51
returned from Antarctica to Australia towing a large iceberg with the
292
2151040
5940
35:56
intention of selling chunks of the ice to locals this turned out to be an
293
2156980
5930
36:02
elaborate hoax in 1998 the fast food chain Burger King
294
2162910
6429
36:09
released an advertising campaign to promote a new product the left handed
295
2169339
5461
36:14
hamburger amazingly thousands of people fell for the prank by showing up at
296
2174800
5789
36:20
burger outlets asking for one of the left-handed meals in 1976 British
297
2180589
7291
36:27
astronomer Patrick Moore announced on BBC Radio that the planets Pluto and
298
2187880
5910
36:33
Jupiter would align in such a way that here on earth people would experience a
299
2193790
5370
36:39
change in the Earth's gravitational pull whilst jumping up and down amazingly the
300
2199160
6900
36:46
BBC received calls from listeners purporting to have floated around the
301
2206060
5190
36:51
room in 1962 Swedish television viewers were told that if they stretched a pair
302
2211250
7500
36:58
of ladies tights over their TV screens the
303
2218750
3660
37:02
black-and-white picture would become colour of course it was all a hoax TV
304
2222410
6360
37:08
viewers in Sweden had to wait another eight years before they could really
305
2228770
3960
37:12
he broadcasts in color so what are the origins of April Fool's Day well it
306
2232730
8010
37:20
depends on who you ask there are many stories surrounding the reasons why we
307
2240740
5070
37:25
play tricks on April the 1st ironically most of the stories surrounding April
308
2245810
5700
37:31
Fool's Day are made up the first written reference of April Fool's Day appears in
309
2251510
7950
37:39
Geoffrey Chaucer's The Canterbury Tales published in 1392 where a mixup with the
310
2259460
6120
37:45
wording of the dates refers to there being 32 days in March another origin
311
2265580
6930
37:52
albeit an unlikely one occurred in France when the Gregorian calendar was
312
2272510
4860
37:57
adopted in 1564 which meant that from there on the new year would be
313
2277370
6480
38:03
celebrated on January the 1st and not at the end of March those who continued to
314
2283850
6870
38:10
celebrate after the change on April the 1st were labeled as fools other theories
315
2290720
7140
38:17
are that the date refers to the Roman festival of hilarya or a revolt against
316
2297860
6660
38:24
Christianity where an an annual day of chaos took place as a protest organized
317
2304520
5550
38:30
by the worshippers of demigods in all honesty it would be fair to say that
318
2310070
6450
38:36
there is no definitive reason why April Fool's Day really exists April Fool's
319
2316520
8490
38:45
Day is also known as all Fool's Day in some places to many people the act of
320
2325010
6690
38:51
playing pranks and hoaxing others for furn seems childish and infantile
321

333
2437280
6590
40:43
everyone is here I have a feeling that quite a few people might be celebrating
334
2443870
5620
40:49
Easter Sunday so we might not have everyone here today what do you think
335
2449490
6420
40:55
Steve yes I expected there either in church or eating chocolate perhaps
336
2455910
7890
41:03
they've had so much chocolate they feel ill and they just can't face watching us
337
2463800
5430
41:09
today yes I have a feeling there won't be many people watching in South America
338
2469230
4920
41:14
or maybe across Europe as well so I would imagine many people today are
339
2474150
4670
41:18
going to be celebrating Easter Sunday so for some people for some people it is a
340
2478820
5890
41:24
very big special day so we might not have everyone here I think some of the
341
2484710
6120
41:30
usual people will not be here today but we are here we're here and they'll have
342
2490830
6600
41:37
to watch us later and yes of course because you can watch this live stream
343

348

42:16
April Fool's joke on me earlier on by saying that I've got nothing for you
349
2536760
5220
42:21

350
2541980
6060
42:28
was all down in the mouth upset among there's no chocolate for me today but
351
2548040
6780
42:34
I'm beginning to think that maybe mr. Duncan was just playing an April Fool's
352
2554820
3600
42:38
joke on me I would never do that Steve and just to
353
2558420

375
2691580
5870
44:57
I gave to you this morning mr. Duncan for Easter can you see the little
376
2697450
5610
45:03
rabbits there I can see them we always associate rabbits with Easter because
377
2703060
6090
45:09
it's the time of year when the rabbits are all breeding they are all chasing
378
2709150
4800
45:13
each other around getting very frisky I love that word frisky they are getting
379
2713950
7110
45:21
very excited they want to mate sorry Steve what did you say I said are you
380
2721060
6870
45:27
going to show the Easter egg that I brought for you yes well it's on screen
381
2727930
4920
45:32
right now in fact it can't see it from here
382
2732850
5040
45:37
there is one of the Easter eggs are you taking it out of the box I've taken it
383
2737890
5040
45:42
out yes because it's too big Oh unfortunately but mr. Steve also bought
384
2742930
7050
45:49
one of these look at this so a golden egg and also a golden rabbit isn't it
385
2749980
6300
45:56
amazing and I love the Bell can you hear that
386
2756280
5490
46:01
the little Easter Bell on the Easter Bunny so there it is there it is so
387
2761770
5760
46:07
these were the gifts that mr. Steve gave me let's add up the amount of fat that
388
2767530
6590
46:14
we are going to conceive don't spoil it I'm gonna need a magnifying glass for
389
2774120
5980
46:20
this here we go right so in here there is nearly 300 grams
390
2780100
5490
46:25
worth of chocolate okay and per hundred grams we have 48 grams of fat hundred
391
2785590
11730
46:37
and about a hundred and forty something bound in 45 grams of chocolate 145 grams
392
2797320
6740
46:44
bearing in mind the annual allowance for chalk as only the daily allows with
393
2804060
5820
46:49
death there's no daily allowance with
394
2809880
3700
46:53
chocolate in the nutritional world the daily allowance for fact for a man is
395
2813580
5460
46:59
about 70 grams is the idea of an amount that's what they should do they
396
2819040
5890
47:04
should say that they should make it annual and then you know they can say
397
2824930
4410
47:09
you could have you can have a ton of chocolate every year so if I have to eat
398
2829340
5280
47:14
all what the chocolate that was in here today I would have double the amount of
399
2834620
4680
47:19
fat that I was supposed to have in the entire day and sugar wise that's for
400
2839300
8310
47:27
this forty grams of sugar I love the way you are using the magnifying glass this
401
2847610
5700
47:33
is very low light is that there's a very bright the light you see it's nothing to
402
2853310
3750
47:37
do with that it's because of your cranky old eyes no it's not so there we go yes
403
2857060
5070
47:42
so 40 grams of sugar in a hundred grams it says about 120 grams of sugar in here
404
2862130
7200
47:49
what's the daily allowance for sugar mr. Duncan it's 77 teaspoons seven just
405
2869330
6060
47:55
seven teaspoons of sugar that's all you're supposed to have every day 30
406
2875390
4320
47:59
teaspoons in here I have the goodness just just in two cups of tea
407
2879710
4860
48:04
every day I have that you've had that already so stand by with you know
408
2884570
7440
48:12
diabetes is coming on because that's what you get if you have too much sugar
409
2892010
4560
48:16
I know but I'm not going to get diabetes you might do I'm going to be fit as a
410
2896570
4770
48:21
fiddle forever you might need what is it insulin that's what diabetics have to
411
2901340
5940
48:27
inject yourself with insulin please never ever take my chocolate away from
412
2907280
4710
48:31
me never we're going to be seriously ill we'll have to eat that out that means we
413
2911990
5490
48:37
are eat it out that means we have to spread it out over a week like just I
414
2917480
6180
48:43
just love the fact that you use the magnifying glass the other day can I
415
2923660
5190
48:48
just tell you now the other day Steve was using the magnifying glass to look
416
2928850
3300
48:52
at his computer screen I was that it's true that just shows you my eyes are
417
2932150
6330
48:58
getting quite bad if I've got to use a magnifying glass on the computer
418
2938480
3420
49:01
cinnamon in the whole of my life I have never seen anyone use a magnifying glass
419
2941900
4590
49:06
to look at their computer screen I'll tell you what it was I was typing
420
2946490
4230
49:10
someone's email address in into the into the address bar
421
2950720
4899
49:15
and because I'm working off a laptop which has got quite a small screen hmm I
422
2955619
4831
49:20
couldn't tell whether I put a dot did you know how people have it so say John
423
2960450
4859
49:25
Smith John Smith yes 20 at Yahoo or whatever I couldn't see if I'd put the
424
2965309
6901
49:32
dot in between the first name and the surname so I used a Magnum that's up in
425
2972210
6329
49:38
the screen mr. Steve was using a magnifying glass to look at this
426
2978539
4351
49:42
computer screen I mean if that is not a sign that your eyes are getting bad
427
2982890
4439
49:47
Steve I'm not joking but it is a small little laptop screen
428
2987329
4500
49:51

3096780
3930
51:40

448
3100710
3859
51:44

449
3104569
3881
51:48
I I can't believe how nice the weather is and of course April has arrived Steve
450
3108450
6960
51:55
are you excited for April April the first I went outside this morning to
451
3115410
6870
52:02
check how much oil we'd used yes and I've got to say we've used a lot this
452
3122280
6809
52:09
winter because it's been very cold and we're down to the last six inches of oil
453
3129089
3421
52:12
in the tank do you know I think this is the worst winter we've had for many
454
3132510
3839
52:16
years well it's certainly going to be an
455
3136349
2730
52:19
expensive winter in terms of fuel bills so we've we've almost used all of our
456
3139079
4951
52:24
allowance for oil we've almost used 2,000 liters of oil 2,000 liters of oil
457
3144030
8789
52:32
that's incredible since September but it has been very cold it has been very cold
458
3152819
4710
52:37
I reckon we've probably got about 300 litres left so don't be enough to last
459
3157529
10590
52:48
us over the summer oh I see so but fortunately we won't
460
3168119
3901
52:52
have the heating on much during the summer anyway it's going off that's it
461
3172020
4710
52:56
it's off we'll have to use we'll have to use candles to heat the water up because
462
3176730
4619
53:01
I only buy it when it's cheap in the summer we last even better we just don't
463
3181349
4740
53:06
wash we never wash on behind anyway mr. Duncan such a face
464
3186089
5901
53:11
stretchy face back to the life better way to talk to your co-host back to the
465
3191990
4690
53:16
live chat lapel is here hello lapel hello mr. Duncan thanks a lot for
466
3196680
5460
53:22
joining me today lots of people on the live chat Martha - have a sweet tooth
467
3202140
5159
53:27
yes I'm sure Steve will be mentioning that one later on I think Brazilian guys
468
3207299
5730
53:33
make and eat a lot of chocolate really says lapel and I'm there's another
469
3213029
5701
53:38
reason for me to go to Brazil of course I suppose
470
3218730
3220
53:41
that makes sense because I suppose there is a lot of chocolate in Brazil because
471
3221950
4800
53:46
they they grow cocoa in Brazil don't know I would imagine they probably do
472
3226750
4470
53:51
yes yeah yes it is yes that might be the reason why I I'm just thinking that
473
3231220
7920
53:59
that's another reason for me to go to Brazil lovely weather rain forests
474
3239140
4979
54:04
beautiful people and now chocolate of course the first famous chocolate in the
475
3244119
5611
54:09
world I think probably we'd say comes from Belgium mmm Belgian chocolate yes
476
3249730
6810
54:16
or in Europe Swiss chocolate is a Swiss chocolate which of course this is this
477
3256540
4950
54:21
this egg you bought me lint lint is a famous Swiss brand of chocolate let's
478
3261490
6690
54:28
have a look not for those who are wondering we are not advertising we're
479
3268180
6300
54:34
not let's have a look at the front lint surely I'll get closer they all know
480
3274480
4740
54:39
it's all that all the focus is all that's called the front that's it yes we
481
3279220
4470
54:43
want to see the egg there's the brand lint famous brand of Swiss chocolate and
482
3283690
5149
54:48
when I was growing up if you got lint chocolate it was the most expensive
483
3288839
5500
54:54
chocolate you could buy in the UK at the time I'm sure this is back in the 1970s
484
3294339
6301
55:00
so if mom bought me Lindt chocolate for Easter and she always bought with his
485
3300640
4890
55:05
Lindt chocolate Easter egg solid eggs it was a real treat because they were very
486
3305530
4680
55:10
expensive now of course chocolate from because we
487
3310210
3629
55:13
only really knew Cadbury's mmm chocolate which was made in in in Birmingham it's
488
3313839
5520
55:19
an otter ville it's a very big brand in the UK Cabras a very big brand but of
489
3319359
5460
55:24
course it's relatively inexpensive we didn't really import as much food as we
490
3324819
5371
55:30
do these days so in the 1970s to get Swiss chocolate was quite something hmm
491
3330190
5730
55:35
but of course sir Belgian chocolate is probably that's the most famous brand I
492
3335920
6570
55:42
would say of chocolate or the region where most of the famous chocolate comes
493
3342490
4200
55:46
from in Belgian but but yes Swiss Lindt but I like Lindt chocolate
494
3346690
6149
55:52
it's nice hence we've got you bought me that and I've bought you a
495
3352839
3481
55:56
chocolate that dr. bunny is Lindt chocolate as well this this bunny rabbit
496
3356320
6600
56:02
is the same brand because we both like this particular chocolate we both love
497
3362920
4800
56:07
it so much so it is actually a very nice brand of chocolate but we're not
498
3367720
5340
56:13
advertising is we're not being paid by them to mention this so we're quite
499
3373060
4530
56:17
willing to be paid but if you would if you would like to sponsor my show you
500
3377590
4830
56:22
are more than welcome we could have a little bunny rabbit in the corner of the
501
3382420
3690
56:26
screen all the time or even better Godiva but you must you
502
3386110
5400
56:31
must send me a very big parcel full of money okay thank you very much Joe had
503
3391510
5190
56:36
chocolate just money and then I'll think about it
504
3396700
2940
56:39
maybe an easter egg filled with money or a golden easter egg just to give you an
505
3399640
6000
56:45
idea of how many of those rabbits that we've eaten how many of those rabbits
506
3405640
6150
56:51
we've eaten let me just show you something in the lead up to Easter over
507
3411790
4710
56:56
the last four weeks they've been selling these chocolate bunnies and they've all
508
3416500
6120
57:02
got those bells around their neck so we've been buying smaller versions of
509
3422620
5550
57:08
that yes so let me just show you now let me just
510
3428170
3780
57:11
show you something so there it is now this will give you an idea of how
511
3431950
5850
57:17
many of these we've actually eaten watch this get ready you've kept all the bells
512
3437800
14850
57:32
off they are off the yes Easter bunnies the chocolate Easter bunnies forever zoo
513
3452650
4380
57:37
limit can you sing nicest chocolate in the world zoo the rich look look at all
514
3457030
7650
57:44
the bells so that gives you an idea think of the fat and sugar of how many
515
3464680
5520
57:50
of these chocolate bunnies we have eaten so with a 100 gram bunnies so we had 50
516
3470200
6120
57:56
we smashed them up not half each so going back to my assuming it's got the
517
3476320
6390
58:02
same amount of fat in which I'm guessing it has here we go
518
3482710
4980
58:07
oh my god you ought to look at the fact that the amount of saturates in
519
3487690
4290
58:11
this as well that the saturated fat is the really bad acts of what bad run via
520
3491980
4920
58:16
via via cholesterol levels that is so we've been having about twenty five
521
3496900
5460
58:22
grams of fat hmm which is probably at least probably a third of our daily
522
3502360
6000
58:28
allowance of fat while it did notice Steve you were starting to look a bit
523
3508360
3600
58:31
fat so I'm getting a bit of a roll around the middle yes I think your fault
524
3511960
4530
58:36
I think Steve is putting on weight mr. Duncan's a bad influence nuts because I
525
3516490
5610
58:42
could give it all up but then when we do for a while we give it all up and then
526
3522100
4110
58:46
slowly it creeps back in no no if we go to the shop we walk in on Saturday and
527
3526210
6540
58:52
mr. Duncan says or shall I get a little treat for later and then all right I say
528
3532750
5190
58:57
just one let's just get one bar of chocolate but then when we get home he's
529
3537940
3720
59:01
thought about four and of course he's like a drug addict so he has it that I
530
3541660
5610
59:07
just want a small piece with any oh oh I have this other bit here you go I'll
531
3547270
4140
59:11
have another bit of all the things like a drug peddler of all the things you
532
3551410
4050
59:15
could have said about me today mr. Duncan is like a drug addict yes
533
3555460
4650
59:20
trying to try to get me hooked on chocolate because sugar I don't think
534
3560110
4470
59:24
it's the chocolate that's so addictive I think it's the sugar that's an addictive
535
3564580
3510
59:28
part well here in the UK of course that there there has been a lot of talk in
536
3568090
4950
59:33
the news about sugar or the content of sugar in certain types of food normally
537
3573040
6270
59:39
fizzy drinks and of course chocolate and of course junk food as well so they are
538
3579310
7710
59:47
going to put a tax on certain foods that have lots of sugar in them so they are
539
3587020
6660
59:53
going to introduce a sugar tax yeah here in the UK to actually try and put people
540
3593680
6330
60:00
off buying things that have a lot of sugar and of course to also encourage
541
3600010
6510
60:06
the manufacturers to put less sugar in their products but between you and me if
542
3606520
6630
60:13
you are addicted to sugar you will buy it however much it costs yes yeah it's
543
3613150
5940
60:19
just another way of the government making money out of tap
544
3619090
3970
60:23
because they've done the same with cigarettes they keep putting the the
545
3623060
3450
60:26
price of putting more tax on cigarettes over over many decades and of course
546
3626510
6660
60:33
what they say is oh this is to discourage people from smoking but of
547
3633170
4860
60:38
course if you just put sort of 10 P on a packet of cigarettes every year then
548
3638030
5580
60:43
most people aren't going to notice another 10 P so if they put tacks on
549
3643610
5220
60:48
sugar well what how much is it going to put up
550
3648830
2730
60:51
the price of a Coca Cola but what do you make me but it won't make any difference
551
3651560
3630
60:55
anyway because even if if a bottle of pop if a bottle of fizzy pop cost 10
552
3655190
6600
61:01
pounds people would still buy it now I don't think they would then I think I
553
3661790
5370
61:07
think they would because they just wouldn't be able to stop themselves they
554
3667160
2940
61:10
would they would be selling their furniture they would be stealing they
555
3670100
3660
61:13
would become my who said early I wouldn't happen mr. junk but but yes I'm
556
3673760
4950
61:18
just supposing though I'm just saying in that situation that you are driving
557
3678710
4440
61:23
people into a desperate situation as well but like but over sugar so say a
558
3683150
6360
61:29
bottle of pop coca-cola fizzy lemonade cus a pound if they put 5p on top of
559
3689510
8370
61:37
that the government are making 5 pence for every one of those bottles sold to
560
3697880
4290
61:42
imagine them billion sold every year people are gonna pay that because it's
561
3702170
4650
61:46
only 5p they won't even notice that's it well it's going to be more than that but
562
3706820
3870
61:50
it's just a way of taxing the average person in the street
563
3710690
5880
61:56
yes well it's it's done to make it seem as if something is being done yes so
564
3716570
5970
62:02
they are paying lip-service so it's a great expression actually if you pay lip
565
3722540
5550
62:08
service to something it means you do something without making any real change
566
3728090
5970
62:14
you it's a hollow action but of course it also might be seen as something that
567
3734060
6180
62:20
will still be of benefit not to the person buying the things but to whoever
568
3740240
6180
62:26
gets the money that is made from the increase so yes yes so yes I think so
569
3746420
7260
62:33
it's a very skeptical way of enjoying the Easter Sunday it's not
570
3753680
5080
62:38
going to put anybody off do you want to look at while we're on the subject of
571
3758760
4140
62:42
sugar and chocolate do you want to look at my some of my phrases and idioms
572
3762900
4560
62:47
related to chocolate before we do that I have something I want to show you mr.
573
3767460
4080
62:51
Steve you're in charge I want to show you something very quickly they're going
574
3771540
4770
62:56
to also talk about sweet things from our childhood now does anyone out there have
575
3776310
6030
63:02
memories of their childhood or maybe things that they like eating now so
576
3782340
7230
63:09
maybe there is something that you used to eat when you were small or something
577
3789570
4770
63:14
you enjoyed eating when you were a child so is there something that you enjoy
578
3794340
5720
63:20
eating so on the live chat we will be talking about that if you want to oldest
579
3800060
6640
63:26
says I found myself eating chocolate cake in front of the computer this sweet
580
3806700
5360
63:32
discussion has made me hungry so because of us Steve Olga is now
581
3812060
5500
63:37
eating chocolate cake it's awful amiri said I'm sorry that person's like you
582
3817560
6360
63:43
why lose hair and I'm also I'll tell you why
583
3823920
5160
63:49
Amir it's because we're v rile we have got testosterone coursing through our
584
3829080
5790
63:54
veins yeah it destroys the hair in your head but you're a virile man and I can
585
3834870
6630
64:01
see you've got a beard as well yes we're real men men who lose their pair of real
586
3841500
5130
64:06
men and then find as irresistible bandwidth is irresistible that's right
587
3846630
8130
64:14
Steve well done obviously men don't find women
588
3854760
5010
64:19
irresistible if they lose their hair it's the complete opposite but if men
589
3859770
4740
64:24
lose their hair then women find it attractive absolutely I'm really
590
3864510
4980
64:29
enjoying the whole that you're digging by the way I haven't dug any hole but
591
3869490
4800
64:34
you can you can have bald women yes but you know you cannot board those well you
592
3874290
5970
64:40
do get boring but they would wear wigs yes but well not if they're bald you
593
3880260
4710
64:44
can't wear a wig and be bald well underneath
594
3884970
3790
64:48
about the girl from Star Trek the motion picture well it's difficult even XE she
595
3888760
5100
64:53
had well that's it then it can be it can be very it can be it can be that you
596
3893860
4830
64:58
know you know who I'm jealous of Steve Patrick Stewart I'm jealous of black
597
3898690
5880
65:04
guys oh okay you know why I'm jealous of black guys because they look great when
598
3904570
5880
65:10
they ball they do because it that because their skin is dark there isn't
599
3910450
4050
65:14
this cutoff between the the pale scalp and the hair at the Sun not even there
600
3914500
5520
65:20
it's not even that it's just that if they shave all of their head off and
601
3920020
3030
65:23
keep it shiny it still looks amazing it does it does
602
3923050
3120
65:26
actually yes I do it I look like an easter egg you look like you're on
603
3926170
3960
65:30
chemotherapy if you shave your hair do you remember once I did that we we we
604
3930130
7110
65:37
actually decided many many years ago we go on holiday are in the days when we
605
3937240
4920
65:42
had hair barely remember that we decided to shave it all off and we went on a
606
3942160
6630
65:48
holiday and we met with with some friends of ours and they said oh are you
607
3948790
3510
65:52
you all I do you you know you show you well I don't know we just shaved a hair
608
3952300
5370
65:57
if necessary you look like you're on chemotherapy huh because of course if
609
3957670
3930
66:01
you are on if you've got a severe nasty disease like cancer you're treated with
610
3961600
5250
66:06
with that chemotherapy then it makes your hair fall out happy Easter so
611
3966850
4860
66:11
normally if you see people in the street particularly women with no hair then you
612
3971710
5580
66:17
assume that they're seriously ill and they've had to have chemotherapy so it's
613
3977290
4230
66:21
not the look that a woman would usually go for unless she's in space in which
614
3981520
5520
66:27
case it looks futuristic yeah talking of hair but it doesn't look futuristic okay
615
3987040
5460
66:32
Steve we've got it we've really got another very brave woman that walked
616
3992500
5760
66:38
walked down the street yeah all her hair shade that's it it definitely you should
617
3998260
4140
66:42
write a book me I haven't got any choice so talking of hair here is the person we
618
4002400
5490
66:47

4031390
6000
67:17

626
4050679
5221
67:35

4076449
3240
67:59
other day I met mr. Duncan from YouTube I was so excited he's very famous on
632
4079689
6600
68:06
YouTube I asked for his autograph you have to keep moving it around he's
633
4086289
4560
68:10
wiggling it around people can't see moving the phone around like this she's
634
4090849
5220
68:16
talking don't you wiggle when you talk no so oh let's have the photo cats oh
635
4096069
6090
68:22
there she is that's the other day Harry's purpley
636
4102159
3060
68:25
they're what her hair does look a bit purpley she's got a headband she's
637
4105219
6360
68:31
wearing it she's wearing a barrette on her head what a headband I can't see a
638
4111579
6000
68:37
headband yes well no but I'm not there no but you know in the moment of time
639
4117579
5430
68:43
when it was really happening I saw it on a head right okay okay
640
4123009
5540
68:49
so that's it you see that's what I'm talking about not now in the photograph
641
4129059
5830
68:54
but when we were actually with her in real life I can't see a headband on
642
4134889
3900
68:58
there no not on there oh but when when when we were really
643
4138789
5370
69:04
with her I noticed she had a headband Oh our and it was purple as well so
644
4144159
5160
69:09
that's interesting same color as her hair there don't you think that strange
645
4149319
5371
69:14
Steve that looks like a like a doesn't like a real person it
646
4154690
5020
69:19
looks like a second it looks like a model or what or a waxworks no it's it's
647
4159710
7409
69:27
Gabrielle Drake I know it is her in the TV show UFO I know what it is okay but
648
4167119
8131
69:35
she had their little headband on the other day I noticed okay but it was
649
4175250
3540
69:38
interesting that it was purple don't you think that's interesting well
650
4178790
4199
69:42
it obviously she likes the color purple yes but it was on her head and that was
651
4182989
4321
69:47
the color of the week she used to wear in the TV show so I noticed it at the
652
4187310
4739
69:52
time but I didn't want to say anything no she probably hates everybody when
653
4192049
6721
69:58
they meet her talking about UFOs she probably wants to
654
4198770
2760
70:01
be remembered for more more serious productions that she was in yes okay
655
4201530
5399
70:06
anyway I believe mr. Steve you have some things to show us now we are talking
656
4206929
5310
70:12
about sweets today because it's Easter we are and I think we can't really do
657
4212239
6271
70:18
that without talking about this particular item first of all so here is
658
4218510
4500
70:23

7980
70:38
essentially tea cakes a bit smaller with some different spicing and a cross on
661
4238429
9210
70:47
top which of course is signifying the cross of Christ okay but there we go
662
4247639
7141
70:54
that the crucifixion that's what that's depicting yeah so you know what it's
663
4254780
7230
71:02
saying when you eat it I'm not quite sure but they're very popular and
664
4262010
4169
71:06
they're delicious well it's a bit like communion is well isn't it it's a tea
665
4266179
3721
71:09
cake with a cross on top it's so you might see it as like communion you know
666
4269900
5370
71:15
can be any way you eat a little bit of you eat a little bit of bread and then
667
4275270
4770
71:20
you eat a little bit of wine the body of Christ the blood of Christ that's it you
668
4280040
4050
71:24
see so eating that eating the hot cross bun probably isn't that unusual I think
669
4284090
4980
71:29
it's probably quite normal do you think no it could be it
670
4289070
3300
71:32

4884070
7290
81:31

777
4896580
5820
81:42

82:06
I thought I was on now you're butting in with me now no it's split screen life is
782
4926460
6270
82:12
like a box of chocolate my mother always said life is like a box of chocolates
783
4932730
4950
82:17
you never know what you're gonna get exactly so what that means is that life
784
4937680
5970
82:23
is often unexpected so just like a box of chocolates that contains lots of
785
4943650
5700
82:29
different flavors shapes sometimes you just don't know what you're going to get
786
4949350
5430
82:34
and that expression has been around long before the film Forrest Gump okay but it
787
4954780
6570
82:41
was popularized in the film and slightly adapted I didn't expect to lose my job
788
4961350
6120
82:47
but hey life is like a box of chocolates so it just means that sometimes
789
4967470
5570
82:53
unexpected things come along yes just like a box of chocolate I always say
790
4973040
5620
82:58
that life is like a box of chocolates it's full of nuts
791
4978660
3770
83:02
well there's one sitting over there it's just like this show you never know
792
4982430
6640
83:09
what's gonna come up next no one knows Duncan's liveing this show there that
793
4989070
3960
83:13
it's like a box of chocolates yes Gabrielle up next Gabrielle Drake
794
4993030
4020
83:17
I saw her the other day I met her in Much Wenlock because she lives here and
795
4997050
5040
83:22
she asked for my autograph she said she's heard of me she does look
796
5002090
4200
83:26
like a doll hello mr. Duncan I've heard of you are you Julian are you on YouTube
797
5006290
6240
83:32
I said yes I am I'm an English teacher he's
798
5012530
4549
83:37
their expression death by chocolate idea death by chocolate it's a sort of a sort
799
5017079
6451
83:43
of flippant phrase I have a feeling that might be off or our fate exactly because
800
5023530
5459
83:48
obviously chocolate is is very nice but consumed in large quantities you could
801
5028989
4950
83:53
imagine it would be very bad for you because it's high in fat and sugar
802
5033939
4800
83:58
mm-hmm so this expression death by chocolate often refers to if somebody
803
5038739
5130
84:03
gives you a big chocolate cake like a triple chocolate layered cake so the
804
5043869
4951
84:08
chocolate on top the the sponge is made of chocolate the filling is made of
805
5048820
4649
84:13
chocolate this there's this chocolate on top and you were to eat two or three
806
5053469
4500
84:17
slices of that you would often you would say that that's death by chocolate and
807
5057969
5910
84:23
in fact I think there was a brand of of confectionery a brand of chocolate cake
808
5063879
5280
84:29
that you could buy that was called literally death by chocolate so
809
5069159
3840
84:32
sometimes people use that expression here's another one chocolate box
810
5072999
6590
84:39
chocolate box what will a chocolate box is a box of chocolates but if you
811
5079589
4060
84:43
describe something that seems to be unreal to perfect and very attractive
812
5083649
7800
84:51
you can say that it's got a chocolate box look about it that maybe it looks a
813
5091449
6090
84:57
bit like a fairytale so sometimes you go into a village and you see this on
814
5097539
3960
85:01
television a beautiful picturesque village and all the houses look perfect
815
5101499
6150
85:07
and they look like something out of a fairy tale you say that this lovely
816
5107649
4350
85:11
village is full of chocolate box houses so it just means something that's a bit
817
5111999
5610
85:17
unreal - perfect oh that's beautiful and what that just looks like a
818
5117609
4500
85:22
chocolate box village do you see what I'm saying there mr. Duncan I do see
819
5122109
5671
85:27
what you are so really when you disappear off the screen I think you've
820
5127780
2459
85:30
disappeared out of the room it's quite strange no it's it I'm still here
821
5130239
3440
85:33
something that seems unreal this this live stream feels a bit unreal today to
822
5133679
6581
85:40
be honest oh then we were looking at chocolate thing here's something that I
823
5140260
5339
85:45

3720
85:54
gobstoppers do you have any now no idea what should we do
826
5154239
5460
85:59
that's a shame but I used to eat gobstoppers and some of them were so big
827
5159699
5371
86:05
you could just about get them into your mouth they were massive some of the
828
5165070
4649
86:09
gobstoppers were huge and of course the word gob gob means mouth yes a slang
829
5169719
8581
86:18
word for mouth a slang word for mouth gob yeah I can't believe you could buy
830
5178300
6960
86:25
these they were giant you could just about get them in your mouth and they
831
5185260
4290
86:29
would they were made a very very rock-hard sugar and they would take ages
832
5189550
5640
86:35
to dissolve and you couldn't speak and I'm surprised I don't know if you can
833
5195190
3929
86:39
still buy them because I would imagine you could probably choke on them I would
834
5199119
3781
86:42
imagine we've banned them though I wouldn't be surprised if if gobstoppers
835
5202900
4230
86:47
have now been banned sweets of course I don't know so much now but certainly
836
5207130
5040
86:52
when we were growing up were full of all kinds of artificial flavorings and
837
5212170
5069
86:57
colorings which have been proven or proven to cause all sorts of problems
838
5217239
8190
87:05
for children yes sort of behavioral problems tartrazine was one of the ones
839
5225429
6511
87:11
that was talked about a lot at the time but all those horrible red orange yellow
840
5231940
4590
87:16
he dies there was one in particular tartrazine which was sunset yellow
841
5236530
4410
87:20
sunset yellow the app and they were they're all they're all industrial dyes
842
5240940
5940
87:26
the basic chemicals artificial colorings which are very bad for you anyway back
843
5246880
8880
87:35
to something nice eeen umbers sweeties do you remember
844
5255760
4459
87:40
fruit salad - I do do you remember the cheese yes and and they only cost one
845
5260219
7210
87:47
penny one penny each and of course there was the other Black Jacks
846
5267429
5670
87:53
do you remember Black Joe I do indeed yeah they had though they were actually
847
5273099
4591
87:57
licorice licorice chews mmm actually no they were aniseed I beg your
848
5277690
6719
88:04
pardon I'm wrong they were actually aniseed
849
5284409
2371
88:06
flavor they make your teeth go black and a tongue I used to like putting them
850
5286780
4770
88:11
over my teeth and then it looked as if I had no teeth yes but of course the they
851
5291550
5280
88:16
are still available but they've taken the they've taken the character off the
852
5296830
4530
88:21
front can you see I'm not surprised I'm not surprised so a lot of people now
853
5301360
4799
88:26
find that particular thing offensive but but you can still get Black Jacks it's
854
5306159
5730
88:31
just that the the the chap the guy on the front has now gone I'm not surprised
855
5311889
7020
88:38
disappear that we don't offend anyone yes so there we mentioned ice cream
856
5318909
5851
88:44
earlier or at least one of my live chatters mentioned ice cream and there
857
5324760
4680
88:49
it is look oh now this is one of my favorite treats a nice ice cream in a
858
5329440
8250
88:57
cone a little cone a wafer cone but also they put they put a lovely flake inside
859
5337690
7159
89:04
do you know what these are called Steve they're called 99 99 99 and I don't know
860
5344849
6491
89:11
why they're called 99 at all you would always ask the ice-cream man you would
861
5351340
5310
89:16
say hello can I have a 99 I mean I get that yes you get the chocolate in the
862
5356650
6390
89:23
top of the car the disappointing thing about 99 s is that they don't that's
863
5363040
4500
89:27
obviously the chocolate they put in there is called a flake hmm but the
864
5367540
6240
89:33
original Cabrera's flakes of course are very tasty
865
5373780
3839
89:37
hmm but when you go to an ice-cream salesman and he puts the the chocolate
866
5377619
8310
89:45
flake in he's not using Cabrera's flake he's using so I've got a very cheap
867
5385929
4681
89:50
chocolate which tastes revolting and you know that you know the thing that always
868
5390610
5190
89:55
worried me is well Stephen I never really knew where his fingers had been
869
5395800
5629
90:01
exactly he'd serve you with the ice cream in and he'd picked the flake up
870
5401429
5411
90:06
and and push it into the ice cream but no grazia says the gobstoppers
871
5406840
8120
90:14
jawbreakers in Canada they are and Abril who's from Mexico says that when he eats
872
5414960
8110
90:23
chocolate it makes her his face suffer I presume lots of pimples and spots yes
873
5423070
6180
90:29
yes now that's a bit of an old wives tale apparently I I were talking about
874
5429250
5040
90:34
we were talking about old wives tales last week apparently it's not really
875
5434290
4460
90:38
supposed to be true but I would think it is if you eat lots of fatty food it
876
5438750
6250
90:45
makes her it makes you your skin go very spotty hmm but so I think probably
877
5445000
5610
90:50
people are reacting to it and maybe when you're young as well yes I think if
878
5450610
5340
90:55
you're young because you can get spots anyway so maybe some people think that
879
5455950
3690
90:59
the spots are appearing because of the chocolate but maybe it's just because
880
5459640
4650
91:04
they are maybe adolescent yes and maybe you're craving chocolate a particular
881
5464290
5760
91:10
time of the month when your hormones are high when you're an adolescent and so
882
5470050
4800
91:14
your unit that the spots are going to come at the same time anyway
883
5474850
3990
91:18
could be coincidence I never I wonder if anyone's ever thought of that before I'm
884
5478840
3720
91:22
so clever what was it what was your idea my idea was that because Gough tan with
885
5482560
6090
91:28
chocolate you craved chocolate it's certain isn't pregnant women often crave
886
5488650
3600
91:32
chocolate for fu so if you crave it maybe you're craving it because at
887
5492250
4650
91:36
certain times of the month hormones in your body particularly when you're going
888
5496900
4830
91:41
through adolescence coursing through you vent all sorts of hormones and maybe
889
5501730
5700
91:47
they're causing cravings at certain times of the month so you crave
890
5507430
4170
91:51
chocolate because your hormones are all over the place so you eat lots of
891
5511600
3090
91:54
chocolate and you get spots but you would have got spots anyway because your
892
5514690
3750
91:58
hormones were up hmm maybe just my idea hmm I wish I'd asked now but yes I think
893
5518440
9570
92:08
I think people do do sometimes say that you are what you eat
894
5528010
3840
92:11
so if you eat lots of rubbish they think that your body will be unhealthy I'm not
895
5531850
3630
92:15
sure how true that is I think it depends on the person so some people can eat
896
5535480
4410
92:19
lots of rubbish and never get ill or or never put weight on whilst other people
897
5539890
5520
92:25
just eat a little bit of something and become
898
5545410
1980
92:27
SiC or maybe their skin becomes very very blemished it all disappears I mean
899
5547390
8040
92:35
I used to get lots of bad spots have schools got Scouts to get them up here
900
5555430
3650
92:39
and I've sort of got scars there from when I was a teenager oh I see but they
901
5559080
6250
92:45
go away eventually in fact when they do go away you're quite disappointed
902
5565330
3120
92:48
because it means you no longer I was getting spots well into the 30s and 40s
903
5568450
5120
92:53
so I never really grew up I must we must stop speaking about chocolate no we're
904
5573570

93:39

912
5619840
4080
93:43
here I wasn't planning on doing it today anyway I brought some more sweet related
913
5623920
5670
93:49
yes idioms let's have another eye candy Oh
914
5629590
4770
93:54
eye candy that's all in focus yeah a personal fate or personal thing that is
915
5634360
7830
94:02
nice to look at but has little substance or appears to have little substance so
916
5642190
5910
94:08
something that's good looking I don't know maybe there's somebody here who's
917
5648100
6140
94:14
extraordinary good looking oh thank you Steve
918
5654240
3870
94:18
thank you that's very kind that is nice to look at but hasn't got much substance
919
5658110
6820
94:24
upstairs that's the idea behind eye candy it's normally somebody or
920
5664930
5400
94:30
something that is just nice to look at doesn't always mean that so for example
921
5670330
6030
94:36
here either is a way of using the expression eye candy her new boy
922
5676360
4500
94:40
friend is a nice bit of eye candy but there's nothing much upstairs so he's
923
5680860
6870
94:47
gorgeous handsome but he's a bit thick a bit of an idiot just a bit bit of our
924
5687730
7080
94:54
eye candy on your arm so something tonight to look at but something nice to
925
5694810
5460
95:00
look at you can say that of course the other way round
926
5700270
2780
95:03
his new girlfriend is a bit of eye candy but she's not very intelligent so you
927
5703050
7390
95:10
can say it both ways round so something is there is attractive superficially but
928
5710440
5430
95:15
there's no depth to them they're just eye candy
929
5715870
3210
95:19
hmm so if you sort of film this film is full of eye candy but the plot is is
930
5719080
7530
95:26
hopeless okay so a show full of beautiful people but there's nothing
931
5726610
7350
95:33
much else going on it's just really a feast for your eyes
932
5733960
3300
95:37
that's eye candy but you can also it doesn't have to be a person sometimes
933
5737260
7590
95:44
you can describe objects as eye candy so if you like beautiful cars and a load of
934
5744850
8100
95:52
you know Ferraris go by you could say that they were eye candy mmm although of
935
5752950
5550
95:58
course there's a lot of substance to to a Ferrari but sometimes you can describe
936
5758500
5850
96:04
objects as eye candy but traditionally it's people yes something that is there
937
5764350
4800
96:09
you go there to be to have pleasure from from looking at it yes the visual yeah
938
5769150
5130
96:14
so just super visual visual it's visually stimulating but but that's it
939
5774280
4920
96:19
but there's nothing much else to it okay there sometimes we all need a bit of eye
940
5779200
4110
96:23
candy we do yes there's a lot of English teachers now on YouTube who might be
941
5783310
4140
96:27
subscribed might be described as eye candy
942
5787450
3180
96:30
oh nice one mr. dog yes Touche nothing much to them yeah they're nice
943
5790630
5640
96:36
to look at yes naming no names another one Steve like a kid in a sweet shop oh
944
5796270
8820
96:45
yes or like a kid in a candy store we're going to be American candy of course is
945
5805090
5070
96:50
the is what Americans called sweets we call them sweet
946
5810160
4560
96:54
it's here in the UK Americans Gordon candy and once the doors a sweet shop if
947
5814720
5100
96:59
you want to be very posh you can say confection of confectionery nobody says
948
5819820
5460
97:05
confectionery anymore but to sweet shop or in the Yuliya or in the US a candy
949
5825280
5340
97:10
store right so like a kid in a sweet shop what does that mean that means to
950
5830620
5550
97:16
be very excited about your surroundings and act like a child or in a silly way
951
5836170
6860
97:23
so mr. Duncan on Friday saw the famous actress and was like a kid in a sweet
952
5843030
9580
97:32
shop he was just very excited it just reduces you back to acting like a child
953
5852610
5130
97:37
that's true you don't have any you're not thinking you're not self-conscious
954
5857740
3780
97:41
anymore just like children are not self-conscious they just do whatever
955
5861520
3960
97:45
they want to do and they're not thinking about it so become very excited if you
956
5865480
5400
97:50
want to see my puddle dance let's have a little break for a moment and then we'll
957
5870880
4470
97:55
have a puddle dance so this is my new trend Steve that I'm trying to set it's
958
5875350
5850
98:01
a brand new dance and I think by the end of the year
959
5881200
4140
98:05
everyone and I mean everyone will be doing this
960
5885340
6410
99:05
TBD boo it's a Sunday afternoon it's the first of April but here in the UK you
961
5945610
7000
99:12
cannot you cannot play an April Fool's prank now because it's after midday so
962
5952610
7980
99:20
you can only play an April Fool's joke in the morning but you can't do it after
963
5960590
5250
99:25
midday or else the person playing the prank becomes the fool mm-hmm and of
964
5965840
8220
99:34
course besides myself it's also mr. Steve there he is
965
5974060
3389
99:37
hello so we have some sweet things to talk about today and we are talking
966
5977449
9301
99:46
about sweet expressions and sweet idioms as well things to do with sugar also on
967
5986750
7199
99:53
a live chat King Afghan says I love your episodes mr. Duncan thank you very much
968
5993949
5431
99:59
I hope you will become or I hope you are a regular u.s. oh look what Olga says
969
5999380
6060
100:05
there we are all like a kid in a sweet shop where mr. Duncan reads our messages
970
6005440
4290
100:09
oh you get very excited you get very excited very nice the Wong is here is
971
6009730
8520
100:18
that clean mr. Duncan oh are you talking about my boots and doir also says this
972
6018250
6960
100:25
Easter Sunday is also April Fool's Day that is very unusual that April Fool's
973
6025210
6690
100:31
Day is on Easter Sunday I don't ever remember it being because Easter is very
974
6031900
5100
100:37
early this year the Easter celebration is a moveable celebration so it's
975
6037000
9960
100:46
usually later is it is it not mr. Duncan it does depend it depends on how are the
976
6046960
4110
100:51
other weeks and days fall it because it's all related to Sundays and days
977
6051070
5160
100:56
after certain religious festivals so it does tend to move around a little bit so
978
6056230
6270
101:02
that's the reason why Easter is is always moving backwards and forwards hmm
979
6062500
7140
101:09
I think last year it was much later yeah this year it this year it's earlier and
980
6069640
4980
101:14
I think it's slightly odd that if you are if
981
6074620
4430
101:19
a religious person mm-hmm celebrating Easter day which is supposedly when
982
6079050
6470
101:25
Christ was resurrected from the dead you wouldn't really want to fall on the same
983
6085520
6880
101:32
day as April Fool's Day no I could come up with all sorts of inappropriate
984
6092400
7130
101:39
things to do with that to do with that but I won't because that would be
985
6099530
5500
101:45
disingenuous to religious people yes so we won't do that here but another
986
6105030
7680
101:52
expression Lincoln's face has gone very well
987
6112710
2820
101:55
eyes are going very wide he went to put wonders what I'm gonna say next I was
988
6115530
3690
101:59
wondering what you were going to say next
989
6119220
1560
102:00
I'm going to say this next I'm going to say here's an expression that something
990
6120780

is sugar or candy coated you can say you can use it both words if you're American
991
6125490
5580
102:11
you would say something is candy coated if you're English you would say it was
992
6131070
4440
102:15
sugar coated okay and what that is is it's an attempt to make something appear
993
6135510
4760
102:20
better than it really is in order to less lessen the negative
994
6140270
5440
102:25
aspects of it so you sugarcoat something you can decode something so you've got
995
6145710
5340
102:31
bad news to say but you don't want to straightaway tell them all about the bad
996
6151050
7200
102:38
news so you you say a few good things first to try and sweeten it to
997
6158250
5040
102:43
candy-coat it do you see what I'm doing there mr. Duncan so for example I've got
998
6163290
5730
102:49
a few examples here but you might be able to come up with some as well for
999
6169020
3330
102:52
example if you had a lovely company car and your boss wanted to take that away
1000
6172350
5910
102:58
from you and give you a smaller less expensive car he might he might
1001
6178260
5700
103:03
sugarcoat it the news the bad news a bit by saying oh your new company cow it's a
1002
6183960
5910
103:09
beautiful red color our and it does over 60 miles to the gallon
1003
6189870
4050
103:13
and then you see it it's um beaten up horrible little car but he's tried to
1004
6193920
6180
103:20
put the positives of it first to try and sugarcoat it
1005
6200100
3600
103:23
say you were had to move house you had to downsize your house and you had to
1006
6203700
4800
103:28
explain it to your children you might say oh oh whoa
1007
6208500
3520
103:32
that the house it's got a a beautiful backyard you'd be able to play football
1008
6212020
4140
103:36
in it but then he's you know you've got to he's got to share the share the room
1009
6216160
4410
103:40
with your sister so you're trying to sugarcoat bad news you're trying to put
1010
6220570
5490
103:46
a positive spin on something that in fact is bad really quite not very nice
1011
6226060
5460
103:51
can you think of any examples of sugarcoating something there we go you
1012
6231520
5610
103:57
can also say soften the blow soften the blow yes exactly so soften the blow is
1013
6237130
5220
104:02
to sugar coat or candy coat something you you try to break the bad news to
1014
6242350
6210
104:08
them Jen gently gently so you candy coat something or you
1015
6248560
7050
104:15
sugarcoat something you make it easier to accept so what you say is may be
1016
6255610
8480
104:24
hurtful or maybe it will disappoint the other person so you sugarcoat it you
1017
6264090
7000
104:31
candy coat it you say it in a way where they won't be let down too much or too
1018
6271090
5910
104:37
harshly you forgot to get somebody a birthday present or you forgot their
1019
6277000
4590
104:41
birthday and you might try and sugar-coated of it by saying or oh yeah
1020
6281590
6180
104:47
it was just a wonderful birthday you're having today I know it you know you
1021
6287770
3750
104:51
haven't got them a present but you're trying to you're trying to try and
1022
6291520
2910
104:54
sugarcoat it to pretend that you haven't forgotten that it's their birthday yes
1023
6294430
5070
104:59
maybe send them a text in the morning or something like that but you should have
1024
6299500
4200
105:03
sent them a birthday card so that sugar coating here's another one it's like
1025
6303700
6240
105:09
taking candy from a baby this is this is slang really for what is an easy task to
1026
6309940
10260
105:20
take candy from a baby because obviously taking candy or sweets from a baby is
1027
6320200
8630
105:28
relatively easy so it's often said in a slightly sinister way or it seemed to be
1028
6328830
6760
105:35
a bit exploitative you've got an unfair advantage because obviously if you're
1029
6335590
6360
105:41
taking sweets or candy from a baby you've got an unfair advantage because
1030
6341950
5090
105:47
you're a big adult it's easy to snatch away sweets from a baby so here's some
1031
6347040
8610
105:55
examples of it look look there's no security at the gate so sneaking in will
1032
6355650
6870
106:02
be like taking candy from a baby mm-hmm
1033
6362520
4520
106:07
let me think of another example here she gets right now for example a wife a
1034
6367909
6091
106:14
beautiful wife she can twist her husband round her little finger she gets
1035
6374000
7150
106:21
whatever she wants from her husband it must be like taking candy from a baby
1036
6381150
3660
106:24
hmm unlike online casinos are exploitative
1037
6384810
7920
106:32
it's like taking candy from a baby yes so you're saying that the actual
1038
6392730
5540
106:38
casinos the people who own the gambling joints or own the web sites they are
1039
6398270
7330
106:45
taking money from people very easily to gain something to get something easily
1040
6405600
6240
106:51
it's just like it's so easy it's like taking candy from a basically so that
1041
6411840
4920
106:56
the people going on to online gambling sites are are people who have got a bit
1042
6416760
5280
107:02
of a problem with gambling and so having those sites the companies it's just easy
1043
6422040
6810
107:08
money for them it's like taking candy from a baby
1044
6428850
3450
107:12
something easy to achieve something yes exploitative you've got an unfair
1045
6432300
4500
107:16
advantage over over the situation apparently originally it used to mean
1046
6436800
6899
107:23
the complete opposite of that okay the phrase has actually changed over the
1047
6443699
9151
107:32
years it used to mean the complete opposite of that there was nothing to
1048
6452850
2970
107:35
nothing about taking candy from a baby it was something else completely
1049
6455820
3480
107:39
different and the expression used to mean the complete opposite it used to
1050
6459300
3629
107:42
mean that but the complete opposite of that so it's hard I guess so it is
1051
6462929
5190
107:48
actually difficult to get something yes actually difficult to get something but
1052
6468119
3511
107:51
over the years that turned into meaning you've got an unfair advantage and it's
1053
6471630
4140
107:55
very easy to get something okay that's interesting cuz i i've heard
1054
6475770
4760
108:00
that expression so many times and i was i was wondering if it's been used some
1055
6480530
4470
108:05
other way in the messy yet exactly okay maybe you're withholding some
1056
6485000
4920
108:09
information you've got an unfair advantage in a situation but you don't
1057
6489920
4680
108:14
let on about it and you say oh it's like taking candy from a baby
1058
6494600
5869
108:20
you know what i fancy at the moment something nice i fancy a little bit of
1059
6500469
5770
108:26
chocolate not chocolate no no chocolate I fancy a little bit of poetry because
1060
6506239
6841
108:33
it really does feel like spring today
1061
6513080
5480
109:22

1062
6562220
2060
109:27
what is it about the season of spring that makes me want to dance and sing is
1063
6567700
6090
109:33
it the color bursting out with glee or the first buzz buzz of the bumble bee
1064
6573790
5970
109:39
the daffodils waving their colors as they sway what a joy to be out on a
1065
6579760
6090
109:45
springtime day the nights become shorter and the day's grow long the birds begin
1066
6585850
6690
109:52
calling their mating song spring is to me a time to give birth a time to
1067
6592540
6870
109:59
replenish the air and the earth so take in a deep breath and I'm sure you'll
1068
6599410
6030
110:05
agree that spring is a glorious season to see
1069
6605440
6350
110:35
oh isn't that isn't that lovely Oh beautiful beautiful little moment of
1070
6635809
11190
110:46
time they're sharing the beauty of spring because spring is a wonderful
1071
6646999
4980
110:51
time of the year what do you think Steve yes and I'm not falling asleep somebody
1072
6651979
5640
110:57
thought I was falling asleep but I'm not I'm awake
1073
6657619
2400
111:00
alive well you're alive and maybe sometimes semi-conscious can we have a
1074
6660019
7830
111:07
look at some of the comments people are making comments yes I like I love
1075
6667849
4201
111:12
looking at the live chat here it comes
1076
6672050
3710
111:16
sugar daddy ah there's there's a good expression yes a
1077
6676269
5620
111:21
sugar daddy have you ever been a sugar daddy Steve
1078
6681889
3150
111:25
I haven't Oh a sugar daddy yes that's somebody that's somebody who is usually
1079
6685039
9360
111:34
an older person in a relationship man so a younger person going out with somebody
1080
6694399
4800
111:39
older the older person is described as the sugar daddy and they are basically
1081
6699199
5610
111:44
just paying to be with that person so they're buying lots of gifts for that
1082
6704809
6840
111:51
person yes and there they are being really exploited by the younger person
1083
6711649
4740
111:56
in that relationship that's it yeah that's a nice position to be in but the
1084
6716389
4530
112:00
older person is with the younger person for obvious reasons but they're being
1085
6720919
3990
112:04
exploited by the younger person and they are the sugar daddy so that's fantastic
1086
6724909
4230
112:09
thank you very much carne so putting it bluntly it's it's a rich
1087
6729139
7050
112:16
old man a rich old man that's it I shook it down so the rich old man he's old and
1088
6736189
6600
112:22
he can't get his his gorgeous lovely wife
1089
6742789
6060
112:28
he's probably overweight and not very attractive I'm not going to say Donald
1090
6748849
5340
112:34
Trump so the only way he can get an attractive younger wife is basically to
1091
6754189
7710
112:41
pay for it hmm there is another word for that there is
1092
6761899
8131
112:50
it's very close - very close very close - prostitute
1093
6770030
5240
112:55
there we go I've said it if you pay for sex
1094
6775270
8849
113:04
that's a prostitute why do you always say these things when I'm drinking water
1095
6784119
4661
113:08
I almost I nearly spat all by water all the water that was in my mouth nearly
1096
6788780
6600
113:15
flew everywhere you always choose moments to say these things when out
1097
6795380
4049
113:19
when I'm I've got a mouthful of water okay well done I think we've we've all
1098
6799429
4891
113:24
known people who have been in relationships where we've known that the
1099
6804320
4020
113:28
other person is with them for the wrong reasons and quite often that reason is
1100
6808340
5009
113:33
because that person has got money and they haven't got money and you can
1101
6813349
4500
113:37
always tell because the man is old normally fat man is old overweight
1102
6817849
7401
113:45
hasn't that after him sir and the woman is very slim very young maybe 20 or 30
1103
6825250
7750
113:53
years younger half the age maybe maybe even younger and she's very beautiful
1104
6833000
6780
113:59
and and when you look it doesn't look right something is very odd you think
1105
6839780
5730
114:05
mmm why is that young beautiful attractive girl going out with that fat
1106
6845510
5040
114:10
overweight man yes why what can it be if only there was a person who people know
1107
6850550
7350
114:17
nowadays who we could we could mention yes do you think there's anyone is there
1108
6857900
5160
114:23
anyone is there anyone who fits those criteria that we've just described yeah
1109
6863060
5340
114:28
is there anyone in the world who might be like that
1110
6868400
4940
114:33
now nothing comes to mind I can't think of anyone either so yes we have the live
1111
6873340
6940
114:40
chat going we are here for just a few more minutes because five minutes left
1112
6880280
4700
114:44
can you believe it Beijing is preparing the food for this special Easter lunch
1113
6884980
6070
114:51
in Brazil right Adrian tell us because we've asked us before and we'll keep
1114
6891050
5189
114:56
watching what is this special east of food Easter
1115
6896239
3661
114:59
lunch you are preparing in Brazil Adrienne canto tellers yes we want to
1116
6899900
5940
115:05
know please tell us what you're eating what are you going to eat is it
1117
6905840
4890
115:10
chocolate there might be some chocolate I have a feeling it will involve
1118
6910730
6570
115:17
chocolate at some point Valentin says it's a win-win situation what is do you
1119
6917300
4710
115:22
mean the the sugar daddy scenario yes well well the sugar daddy gets the
1120
6922010
5850
115:27
lovely wife and that the lovely wife gets the money yes well sometimes you
1121
6927860
5370
115:33
know sometimes it can work we usually see that as an exploitative relationship
1122
6933230
7130
115:40
but sometimes maybe they there is love there as well where it were assuming
1123
6940360
5859
115:46
that there's no love there that the the overweight elderly man is is only after
1124
6946219
6991
115:53
sex and and the attractive beautiful wife younger wife is only after the
1125
6953210
5279
115:58
money but that isn't necessarily always the case sometimes it is love there and
1126
6958489
6420
116:04
it isn't always a physical thing either so so from the man's point of view quite
1127
6964909
4681
116:09
often it's just for his ego so when he walks out that yes he has a beautiful
1128
6969590
5790
116:15
young woman on his arm so it's not necessarily about the physical side of
1129
6975380
5430
116:20
it it's just really about ego it's about your your public appearance so you have
1130
6980810
6119
116:26
a beautiful young lady on your arm they go wow
1131
6986929
3540
116:30
look at that guy what a guy so yeah so I think it's also about just about the the
1132
6990469
6681
116:37
ego of the person as well yes I think when we use the phrase sugar daddy
1133
6997150
5170
116:42
though we are assuming that that is what is going on and I supposed to be fair we
1134
7002320
4980
116:47
have to say that they can be sugar mothers or sugar mummy's right there are
1135
7007300
4439
116:51
so you know a young yes a young guy you know might be picked up or might be
1136
7011739
7170
116:58
dated by an old woman and she might be wealthy so it works both ways we like we
1137
7018909
6661
117:05
like a little bit of equality now and again so here's an expression there's an
1138
7025570
4470
117:10
expression for that as well isn't there I think I believe I'm trying to think
1139
7030040
3240
117:13
what it is now when the expression for an elderly woman who's who's going out
1140
7033280
7380
117:20
or dating a younger man and hopefully that'll come to our minds and we can use
1141
7040660
7020
117:27
there is an expression to that isn't that oh I don't know I'm gay always yes
1142
7047680
3870
117:31
all I know is sugar mom or sugar mama know there's that I don't heard that
1143
7051550
4620
117:36
there is another expression okay and I can't think what it is maybe
1144
7056170
4830
117:41
somebody can tell us yeah well we are going in a moment we are going girls
1145
7061000
5070
117:46
trophy wife trophy wife yes that's what tsukete says that's another way of
1146
7066070
5460
117:51
expressing so maybe the that the man is the sugar daddy and the lady is the
1147
7071530
5190
117:56
trophy why isn't it milk oh no that it's definitely not that
1148
7076720
4230
118:00
Steve I've heard of that expression yes know what that means something very
1149
7080950
3810
118:04
different does it okay let's not go down that road cougar a cougar that's at the
1150
7084760
6210
118:10
ad that that's an elderly woman coming out with it with her with a younger a
1151
7090970

118:15
younger man oh I see there's another expression I can't think what it is
1152
7095950
4050
118:20
thank you not at rest for that not so tres thank you for telling us that
1153
7100000
5250
118:25
cougar is is a lady who is in her in the later years of her life and she's after
1154
7105250
6720
118:31
a young man but it's it's normally have you noticed that it's always seen as
1155
7111970
5970
118:37
more acceptable for an older woman to go out with a younger man it's it's it's
1156
7117940
7920
118:45
not frowned upon let's put it this way yeah I think that I think the point is
1157
7125860
4650
118:50
it tends I don't know why it tends not to look so odd no it's not frowned upon
1158
7130510
8160
118:58
whereas when when a younger man a younger woman is going out with that
1159
7138670
7770
119:06
with an elderly man it's sort of sniggered and laughed about but of
1160
7146440
4380
119:10
course if you look at films this hasn't always been the way because an elderly
1161
7150820
5790
119:16
an older man used to be seen as as something to attain of a younger
1162
7156610
8470
119:25
woman so a younger woman would often go out with the with an older man but we're
1163
7165080
3960
119:29
tighter age we're talking there 1950s 60s but it's different though because at
1164
7169040
5880
119:34
that time it was about maturity yes so so the older man was seen as as I want
1165
7174920
6450
119:41
to say father figure but also a person who was more mature so it wasn't really
1166
7181370
5280
119:46
necessarily about money it was about being with someone who can guide them
1167
7186650
4830
119:51
through life but it depends how obvious it is because you know if someone is
1168
7191480
4740
119:56
wealthy you know that they are because they they well they are wealthy you know
1169
7196220
6090
120:02
they're wealthy so if they they suddenly have a very young girl on their arm then
1170
7202310
5340
120:07
it looks very obvious yeah I suppose in everyday life if an older man is with a
1171
7207650
7410
120:15
younger woman people probably won't be so judgmental
1172
7215060
3630
120:18
and they will probably say oh she likes she likes the mature man so they
1173
7218690
4650
120:23
wouldn't think necessarily of it she is after his money now and traditionally in
1174
7223340
4770
120:28
a relationship the man would be older certainly in in Western culture hmm the
1175
7228110
7620
120:35
man I think I don't know whether that's the same all around the world but the
1176
7235730
4350
120:40
man is usually older than a woman in a relationship maybe four five years older
1177
7240080
6090
120:46
yes in culture some cultures the man is always old a man is always usually older
1178
7246170
5550
120:51
if you're getting married hmm maybe a bit more world wise and I
1179
7251720
6030
120:57
think some women do like that in a man some women do like a man who was older
1180
7257750
5040
121:02
more experienced and more mature yes and particularly I mean it's fine if the if
1181
7262790
6660
121:09
the older man has looked after himself and still looks attractive hasn't let
1182
7269450
5850
121:15
himself go any example then then that's fine then because you can see that he's
1183
7275300
6450
121:21
looked after himself and you know if there's love there then
1184
7281750
4830
121:26
there's nothing wrong with that you look at films from the nineteen forties
1185
7286580
3480
121:30
fifties and sixties the and that the film star man it's maybe in
1186
7290060
9690
121:39
his 40s and 50s but his heel always falls in love with somebody who's in
1187
7299750
5130
121:44
that twenties the woman that's what you always saw on the screen you always saw
1188
7304880
6690
121:51
a man in his 40s and 50s was marrying a woman who was many many half his age at
1189
7311570
7140
121:58
least that's it that was the image I think which was very popular that's it
1190
7318710
4350
122:03
yes we've got that Humphrey Bogart yeah exactly
1191
7323060
5790
122:08
my God if you if you see hopefully Bogart in his films he always looked a
1192
7328850
6990
122:15
bit a bit old and a bit worn but but the ladies always look much younger and
1193
7335840
5520
122:21
pretty prettier so yes because he was like the he was like the the mature man
1194
7341360
6180
122:27
the tough guy hmm but yeah yeah that was but of course
1195
7347540
6380
122:33
women many years ago was seen as very much weaker than men and of course today
1196
7353920
7720
122:41
as which are quite rightly women have become much more independent and they
1197
7361640
6330
122:47
don't necessarily need a man for money girls artists girl power base real power
1198
7367970
6900
