This week Rob is joined by actor, comedian, and musician Bill Bailey! Bill talks about his tour Bill Bailey: En Route To Normal, his experience of being fought over by his teachers in school due to being sporty, theatrical and musical, and they reminisce about performing Always On My Mind together (link below!). Bill also tells Rob about feeling like the underdog on Strictly Come Dancing, and how that spurred him and Oti to go on and win the show!

I caught the tail end of Strictly and was so pleased to see Bill doing well. But then I thought, why wouldn't he? He's been a musician his whole life. Well he took that lifetime of experience, paired it with his genuine personality, and won the dang thing. I'm not sure he was the best celebrity dancer, but he was the audience favorite, without cynicism. He won on entertainment, not perfect steps. And that's how he won me on Brit panel shows.

@helenl3193 Жыл бұрын

He took it seriously and put in the effort, and the audience could see it. Plus he's got such charm and that helped too I'm sure - for me, anyway! I don't know why people were surprised, but I love that he could prove them wrong :)

I was surprised people thought he'd be bad, tbh - I didn't think he was a shoe-in to win necessarily but he's got such musical aptitude I figured he'd have some natural rhythm to build off of. Not to suggest all musicians are good dancers but he's so musical, good in such a wide variety of instruments and musical styles, it felt like a safe bet

I played music with my friend called Bryan in a band we called "Boris's Last Ceation". The only thing I could play was the electric fireplace, bongo and out of tune guitars whilst he played guitar, piano, drums and any instruments he could get his hands on. Got us lots of free booze. He was OK? Love him to the day I die. He was a brilliant musician. Violin playing in background. Sorry to lay that on you but I think Bill would know what I'm trying to say? ❤
