00:00 Oh, that hurts! How big was he?
00:03 Mmm!
00:04 Robbie, I'm Lucy. Lovely to see you.
00:06 Hi Lucy, how's it going?
00:07 My first ever single was Freedom on cassette. My first ever gig was Nedworth.
00:10 Bless you.
00:11 So thank you for making my life of music so wonderful.
00:14 Oh, bless you, thank you.
00:15 You mean a huge amount to me. How you feeling?
00:18 I am feeling like a birthday boy. I feel like I understand why birthdays are so important
00:25 to my wife and they're not to me, because I suppose you get to feel like this, sort
00:29 of like excited and what does it all mean? I also feel nervous and trepidation because
00:35 I'm making myself vulnerable and I'm yet again putting myself out there to go, "Please love me."
00:41 And then, you know, there might be a load of people that are just going, "Not ready for that yet, Robbie."
00:45 So, and that hurts. So it's a mixture of a lot of things, really. But mainly pride and mainly excitement.
00:55 Yeah, I mean, you've got your first fake tan. Look at this!
00:58 It wasn't my first one. It's just my first one in a long time.
01:01 Oh, right. Okay. Well, you're looking fantastic. You're feeling good.
01:04 I don't look like Bob Rolfe. It's not... It's fine, right?
01:07 Yeah, it's fantastic.
01:08 Yeah, but I did notice that it's like having a filter, but in real life. I totally get
01:15 the spray tan thing. I'm going to do more often.
01:18 You look fantastic. Let's talk about your lovely lady. Talk about fantastic. She told
01:22 me it was difficult to see the girls in all this.
01:24 Yeah, well, it would be. You know, she was talking about an ex-boyfriend that she had
01:28 not so long ago, and I was like, "Didn't need to know he was an athlete. Ooh, that hurts.
01:35 Hmm. Yeah. Is he over six foot? Was he... How big was he? How big was he?" You know?
01:42 And so, you know, I get it. I get it. And it can't be easy for her. But look, you know,
01:50 Robbie Williams, I've got the past.
01:52 Yeah, we absolutely love you. No Regrets massive song. Do you have any regrets to now?
01:56 Yeah. I mean, I've had regrets today about how many carbohydrates I've eaten. You know,
02:02 people are always asked, "Do you have any regrets?" and they go, "No, because maybe
02:05 the person I am today." I've got seven today. I don't know what they are, but I could find
02:10 them quite easily.
02:12 It's all about going back in time and reliving one of the moments from this. Doc, would you
02:15 go back?
02:16 No. No, I wouldn't. The only things that I would revisit is sort of, you know, the bits
02:23 where I've fallen in love with Ida, but I don't need to because I feel the same way
02:28 now, even if, you know, probably more. But professionally, no. It's all about the future.
02:35 Yes, and Teddy is an absolute superstar. Are you worried about just how popular she's going
02:40 to be?
02:41 Kind of. You know, she's destined to do the same thing as me. People keep asking me, "Are
02:48 you worried that they will follow in the same job as you?" I'd be really upset if she didn't.
02:55 I wouldn't be able to understand her being a professional person. "Dad, I hate to let
02:59 you down, but I'm going to be a doctor." "You should have a plan B. Have you tried content
03:04 creation?" You know, I don't know. Life is difficult, no matter what you choose as your
03:11 job, no matter what family that you're born into. And her path will be her path. I will
03:16 just try to guide her as best as possible.
03:19 And are you worried about anyone seeing this, Doc?
03:22 I'm worried about not enough people seeing this, Doc. You're not worried about anybody
03:26 that's in it that I'll upset? No, I hope it upsets them.
03:33 And I must ask you, as a Spurs fan, babe, you've made everybody so happy.
03:39 I've always had a soft spot for Spurs. No, but I genuinely have. Since 1981, it was like
03:45 a choice between Man United or Spurs, and I was closer to Man United ever since. But
03:50 the Lily Whites have always had a soft spot in my heart, and for them to embrace my song
03:56 means a great deal to me. And I'm on board. I'm on this ride with you. I don't know what
04:01 that means, because you're not allowed to do that, but I'm football fluid. I'm gender
04:09 fluid. Today I'm a Spurs fan.
04:12 And can we do it?
04:14 Do you know what? One step at a time. Spurs are doing something that they haven't done
04:20 in living memory, and they are finding results when they wouldn't have, and they are winning
04:27 when they're not playing that good, and then they play excellent. Madison's the don. I
04:33 love Madison. It's very, very exciting, and I'm on board.
04:38 Yeah, and we're singing when we're winning.
04:39 No, yes you are indeed.
04:41 Thanks to you and your song.
04:42 Pleasure.
04:43 Thank you, Bobby. Absolute pleasure. Cheers.
04:45 Thank you.
04:46 Cheers.
04:46 Cheers.
