June Brown

This is just AI.

Or June Brown, eh? Or June Brown.

But you know me and AI.

I'm not a fan anyway.

fucking

horrible i remember years ago um what is the woman who plays dot cotton in eastenders June, June Brown.

Yes.

I don't know where far reaches of my brain that came from June Brown.

She was on, I believe it was this morning.

And she said that, that it is such a shame that people do not know the power of turmeric.

And again, it's this economy, how fast they get across, 'cause they didn't have much time to give you a backstory.

Like maybe they, today, Netflix, they, they expand it, right? And then the second scene was, uh, June Brown's scene, Billy Martin's mum, when she, you know, calls him a trite bound.

Remember, he had short trousers and his elocution lessons.

So you really get this picture of the villain, 'cause, you know, you don't, you don't spend a huge amount of time with, with Frank Kemble, right? Um, and the other thing for me was they, obviously he's been slippery.

How was Mrs. Martin-

Maybe we should, uh-

... for you, June Brown?

Well, she, she's integral to the plot, isn't she? Because-

Very

talented actress, June Brown.

Is that her name?

Yeah.

I mean, you know...

Barbara Windsor, June Brown, you know, Pam St. Clements.

They were just these amazing...

Rudolph, who's still in there.

We can't be in a queer venue without me asking.

Yeah.

June Brown.

Now, I know she was a friend of yours.

I mean, it's those ones, I think, l- where you get them, an odd mix, and you think, "Ooh, how is this gonna work?" And then it goes brilliant.

Like Lady Gaga and Jun- God rest her soul, June Brown-

Oh, I know

... from, Dot from EastEnders, which was lovely, and Lady Gaga seemed to be absolutely en- entranced by her.

... and her cigarettes.

Yeah.

Well, I think a lot of times the celebrities are glad to meet kind of unexpected people, people they would never have met, you know? 'Cause let's face it, June Brown, uh, was probably never going to go to a Lady Gaga concert, and certainly not pay extra for meet and greet.

[laughs]

It reminds me of pro- I'm probably repeating myself.

It reminds me of the great, dear, wonderful June Brown, who played Dot Cotton, and I remember being in a hotel with her, and this was not through any malice at all, I think it was a generational thing.

But we, I think I'd got out the shower.

We were sharing a hotel room.
