Now, I've got a story for you.

When I arrived off the plane,
2
33000
3000
00:36
after a very long journey from the West of England,
3
36000
3000
00:39
my computer, my beloved laptop,
4
39000
3000
00:42
had gone mad,
5
42000
3000
00:45
and had -- oh! -- a bit like that! --
6
45000
3000
00:48
and the display on it --
7
48000
3000
00:51
anyway, the whole thing had burst.
8
51000
3000
00:54
And I went to the IT guys here
9
54000
4000
00:58
and a gentleman mended my computer,
10
58000
4000
01:02
and then he said, "What are you doing here?"
11
62000
3000
01:05
and I said "I'm playing the cello and I'm doing a bit of singing,"
12
65000
3000
01:08
and he said, "Oh, I sort of play the cello as well."
13
68000
3000
01:11
And I said, "Do you really?"
14
71000
3000
01:14
Anyway, so you're in for a treat,
15
74000
2000
01:16
because he's fantastic, and his name's Mark.
16
76000
2000
01:18
(Applause)
17
78000
3000
01:21
I am also joined by my partner in crime, Thomas Dolby.

♫ but you did not hear ... ♫
23
128000
6000
02:15
♫ And you're a plant that needs poor soil ♫
24
135000
6000
02:21
♫ and I have treated you too well ♫
25
141000

♫ In Gerda's eyes ♫
45
240000
3000
