Rob Newman

Yeah.

So Robin, 15 minutes ago at the time of recording, commented, you forgot the famous Peter Cook quote about David Frost.

My greatest regret was saving him from drowning.

And he rose without a trace.

Collie would, Olivia Colman would have to do it.

Otherwise it would look, you couldn't get Patterson, me, Sophie Winkleman and Matt Kick.

Imagine, I mean, you couldn't, you'd have to get Robin David and Olivia Colman.

You couldn't.

Yeah, that was me.

That was a Rob Newman joke from the Mary Whitehouse experience I'll always remember.

He says, the reason they caught Guy is because he was...

The one who was brilliant in it is Paddy Considine.

as Rob Gretton I know that is Gretton and in fact the guy who plays Gretton in the control film he's brilliant as well because he is Gretton you know Gretton was quite funny but quite gritty you know what I mean you wouldn't you wouldn't mess with Rob Gretton you know you get a punch in the face

So were you a Hacienda guy? Did you go down there and see all this stuff? Well,

yeah, but I mean, one of the myths about the Hacienda is that it was empty.

Now, it was because they'd run it seven nights of the week because the guy whose idea it was was Rob Gretton, who managed New Order and Joy Division and was like, you know, big in the factory thing.

And he was the music guy, not Tony, really.

It was Rob Gretton.

But Rob just liked somewhere to go and have a pint every night.

show, yes.

Rob Newman and David Baddiel and Steve Punt and Hugh Dennis.

They were doing a sort of parody of the video where instead of singing I Had to Crucify Some Brother Today, they sang Do You Think I Look Like Peter Beardsley? Yeah.

But not as much as Bez looks like Hugh Laurie in this video.
