  • So I had a little bit of an issue

  • in that I, as I said,

  • I got the job, but I didn't expect to

  • because I thought it was going to be such a massive show.

  • And then, you know, David wanted to be a very nice actor

  • and not cause any trouble.

  • So they said, we're going to put you in heels

  • because you're tiny and I went, yeah, yeah, yes.

  • Everything yes. I'll do anything you want me to do.

  • And then the first day on set, the heels paired

  • with the corset was a pretty bad combination for me

  • in that I fell over three times on my first day.

  • Yeah.

  • Fully landed in the grass.

  • Then the last time I was carrying a parasol,

  • which became a deadly weapon.

  • So I fell forward speaking to Claudia Jessie

  • who plays Eloise

  • full on stabbed her in the hand with a parasol

  • and she started bleeding.

  • Oh my god!

  • Oh man, yeah, occasionally I play a woman.

  • I've had to wear heels and then I can't walk for a week,

  • so I get it.

  • But I'm actually going to show you guys some photos.

  • And I'm going to need you to tell me

  • what's going on with these photos.

  • OK?

  • So like this one.

  • Look at that! Golda. Come on now.

  • This is actually what London looked like

  • after her special came out.

  • Stop talking!

  • It was! It was a great time.

  • In her apartment.

  • Yeah. This is one of the lighter wigs I would say.

  • Yeah. Wow.

  • This is what you work out in on the show, right?

  • Yes. 6 o'clock the trainer comes in

  • and I'm dressed like that.

  • You have that whoever smelt it dealt it face.

  • Whatever that is.

  • How did you like, how did you pee in this thing?

  • I wore Spanx once and

  • it was game over.

  • It was game over!

  • Peeing is quite difficult.

  • Yes.

  • There's a panisol underneath there,

  • a pannier underneath there.

  • There's a skirt and then another skirt.

  • And then the jacket with the corset.

  • I'm corseted up twice.

  • So, yeah, it takes about half an hour to go to the toilet.

  • First of all,

  • it looks like they have to carry you in each scene

  • and just put you somewhere.

  • Just place you down and go, please don't need to pee.

  • Let's just get these shots out.

  • Ah now, Nicola, I don't know.

  • I'm very impressed that you're able to sit like this.

  • It takes me days to get up.

  • Well, I could get down on the floor,

  • but someone had to retrieve me from the floor.

  • I'm not saying I could get up.

  • I am curious, can I find this dress at Kohl's?

  • Yes, absolutely, as two for one.

  • So yeah, you'll get something else really nice to go with it.

  • All right. Next photo.

  • My dog looks just like that Pomeranian, by the way.

  • He was up for that part.

  • It looks like you've got the cast of Hamilton under there.

  • They're doing the whole stage play when you lift it up.

  • Hello!

  • Wow.

  • Did the throne come with the dress?

  • Were they attached?

  • They could have been if the pannier was still on, yes.

  • I tell you, though,

  • If someone had made me wear a dress like this back then,

  • I would have beheaded everyone.

  • Yeah I don't know how they did it.

  • I don't know how those chicks did it.

  • You're amazing. You're amazing!

  • Next photo. Were you guys

  • really annoyed that you had to be in hair and makeup

  • for probably hours

  • and then the guy behind you just had to put on a top hat?

  • You know, pretty much.

  • Yeah. Yeah.

  • My hair and make up took about two,

  • I think over two hours.

  • Wow!

  • To do.

  • What was the dry cleaning bill for this show, like

  • five hundred million?

  • Maybe, I don't know!

  • Keeping up with the Karens.

  • Yeah.

  • This picture says we would all like a word with your manager.

  • All right. I have one last photo I'd like to show you.

  • That's me. That's me you guys.

  • Yep. That was back when I was straight

  • and I was promised to my brother.

  • That looks amazing.

  • The only thing that still fits are the gloves.

  • You truly were the diamond of the season, darling.

  • Yeah, that's right, Nicola.

  • Ok, Golda and Nicola.

So I had a little bit of an issue
