  • Here we go. There we are.

  • Cracking. Cheers, everybody. Cheers, everyone. Happy Christmas!

  • Merry Christmas! Happy Christmas. Let's make it a good one!

  • Hey, it shows you how long it is since we've drove down here, hey?

  • I mean, it's the first time we haven't had to pay the toll to cross the bridge!

  • I sort of missed it, really,

  • cos I used to like throwing the coins in the basket.

  • You know, it's a little bit like a sumo wrestler with sand.

  • I tell you what, it's a cracking motorway, the M4.

  • Yeah, you're right there, Bryn.

  • I tell you, the services, you're spoilt for choice.

  • Oh, phenomenal. Oh, not Heston, mind...

  • No, no, not Heston, obviously. Of course.

  • Only a fool would stop at Heston. Chieveley, you like. Sensational.

  • I'm a Leigh Delamere man. First class. Second to none.

  • Er, what was that name of that services that we was on the M6,

  • near, what was it, near Stoke, when we went to Richard's 60th?

  • Oh, I can't remember the name, but I remember the sandwich.

  • Egg and cress, Ness.

  • Fresh as the day it was born.

  • I can still taste it now.

  • Knutsford! That was it. Knutsford. Knutsford.

  • Well, I like Membury... That is good. Yeah. I LOVE Membury.

  • BOTH: Insane in the Membury.

  • ..and I'll tell you for why.

  • I arranged to meet my friend Paul there, you know Paul,

  • we became friends on Instagram, and we said we'd meet at 12.

  • Well, I arrive, no sign of Paul.

  • He's had trouble with his car,

  • and he feels so terrible about it,

  • that he sends his sister, Jenny, to keep me company in his place.

  • Well, Pam, you would've loved Jenny,

  • oh, she was fantastic.

  • Anyway, that day, she's lost her wallet,

  • and on top of that, she's dropped her phone.

  • Needs a new case.

  • Well, that's the beauty of Membury,

  • they've got a phone shop right there on the concourse.

  • So, I bought her a case, got her some lunch,

  • we were there six hours, all told.

  • I had a lovely time.

  • They're dead now, Paul and Jenny.

  • Very sad,

  • and I would've gone to the funeral, if they'd had one,

  • but their religion forbids it.

  • They just wanted donations,

  • to a charity set up in Paul's name,

  • which I still donate to,

  • £10 every month, Mick.

  • Who's for another drink? Yeah, I'll get these. Shall we get a round before it gets busy? Yeah.

  • Just a water for me, Gav, I've hardly touched this. Shut up, Bryn, you melt, it's Christmas Eve!

  • Yeah, and you'll have an Archers and lemonade, whether you like it or not.

Here we go. There we are.
