Sorry, listeners. I regret to inform you this is an unintentional Pokemon-themed podcast episode. Please try your best to enjoy it. Thank you. It did often. And I definitely... Sorry, I'm just... Just bear Just pull me down. Hello! Yo! They're so wonderfully ill-informed. We certainly are. Hi, you're welcome to Wonderfully Ill-Informed. This is a podcast where we convert interesting, funny or informative things from our week into quotes. We put them into a randomizer and then we take our best shot at guessing what they're about, followed by a pretty meandering discussion. Join us for some rather unpredictable chats on Wonderfully Ill-Informed. I am Mark. I'm Ben. And I'm Tom. And I'm Mark again. And I'm Ben again. And I'm not Tom again. who are you this time? Well, as we know, you're Cunt. yeah, as previously discussed. Hi Cunt! Do have a question for us, Mark? Could you please tell me what your favourite Christmas movie is? Or a recent Christmas movie recommendation that you've got for us? I, last night I watched that violent, is it Violent Night? with David, David Harbour? the guy from Stranger Things? Yeah, I thought it was quite good. Is it about a bunch of serial killers in a remote location trying to kill each other or something? No. Assassins? No. Well, it's basically a family... Don't tell it without spoilers. Well, it's not really any spoilers to it. It's just a violent Christmas movie. Okay. Basically, there's a rich family and a group of thieves decide that they want to steal. money from this rich family and then they do but then while they're doing that old Santa Claus is just delivering presents and he kind of gets stuck there and then he ends up just fucking them up and just saving them today. sick so it's actual Santa Claus it's not like a it's not a home alone situation. No he is Santa Claus. sick. He's literally Santa Claus but he has like chimney magic and all that kind of stuff. Sick. I'm definitely down for Violent Night. I will ensure that that goes on to mine and Kate's list. It's pretty, it is pretty violent. mean, like, yeah, you see that heads getting exploded and like, like, just really gory violence. What about you Ben, have you got any? You guys know what I'm like. Do you think I like Christmas movies? I honestly wouldn't be able to say for sure if I thought you liked Christmas full stop. Yeah, I could have removed the word movies there. Yeah, yeah. I've got I don't have any movies that I can think of. Really? I was I had a little look through my list of films that I've watched and the only Christmas film on there was called 8 Bit Christmas. OK, it's got Neil Patrick Harris in it. I don't know anything about that film. don't know when I watched it. I don't know what it's about. Presumably Christmas. Other than that, don't know. So there's another one to go in the hat for an option to pick from. if we need more than just what Tom gave us. I'm open to anything with Neil Patrick Harris is normally good. mean, everyone loves Home Alone though. Yeah, Elf, that's a classic. Yeah, that's a really good one. The Santa Claus disease series are always good. I like them. Yeah, we want to rewatch those. That's on our list for rewatching over the next few weeks. We've already started watching our Christmas movies, so we've done... We actually are going to go back maybe closer to Christmas and watch Home Alone 1 and 2. But yesterday we watched Home Alone 3, which isn't great. has a really bad rap, but is actually pretty good. It's not a bad movie, but it's definitely not as good as the Macaulay Culkin heartfelt. I don't know if I've seen any It's got that 90s joy vibe. Sorry, Ben. If it wasn't even 90s. Did you just say you've not seen any of the Home Alone series? Not necessarily in full. my God. Like there were a lot of films from that era that I haven't seen. Like, so after we started coming, which episode it was, but we were, it was when we were playing your game, the opposite bands and you said, Dan Aykroyd and we were talking about, Ghostbusters. I hadn't seen Ghostbusters. I've bits of Ghostbusters. I watched it like last week and I realized I was like, no, I've never seen this film in full. So I've certainly seen bits of Home Alone. Whether I've seen the whole thing, I don't know. And whether the bits I've seen are from the various different films or just one of them, I've no idea. That's mad to me, That's literally mad. It's such a formative series to me. I'm pretty sure that's probably mad to like, I don't think there's anyone like you. I swear down there. I think I dislike you. Literally, I swear down like every person I know in the world has seen like... certain sets of movies, especially of our age. Yeah, well that was the weird thing. When we were watching it, I actually turned, I turned to Cain and I said, I think I actually saw this in the cinema, Home Alone 3. actually think, because I think it came out in 1999. So I think that was like a formative cinema trip between me and a couple of our very early childhood friends, sorry, no, you're Ben, Ben, Doug and John from back in the early days of school. I think I went with those guys to see Home Alone 3 when we were little tiny kids. And I remember it not being as good. agree, Tom. It hasn't, I think you said earlier on slightly, it hasn't got the same heart as Home Alone 1 That's so funny that I didn't even realise it was in the 90s. That's mad. Yeah, man. But yeah, it's not got the same heart, but it is actually a much better movie than I remember it being. But we've started watching Home Alone 4 and I'll report back on it. There are four of them. Yeah, there's about six. shit. There are a couple more that we've discovered. I didn't even realise there were as many as there are, but there are more in the series. Can I throw another classic Christmas film into the hat that I've never seen? Yeah, Fire Away. Die Hard. That's pretty criminal too. I felt like that might be a film that you guys would also be like, how the fuck have you never seen that? Yeah, I mean, that is an awesome film. I don't hold it in so much reverence. I don't think it's the Home Alone series, but Die Hard is joy. I was going to say Jingle All The Way is a banging Christmas film. Yes, that is an excellent Christmas movie. And I bet Ben's not seen it. Have you seen that one, Ben? Hang on, which one's that? It's got Arnie in it. yeah, again, we'll have seen some bits of it. And he's got to buy his son a specific toy and there's this other dude that wants to try and get it. Yeah, I can't be is it Jamie? Jamie! I've got to get you the toy!" And his wife's gonna leave him and shit as well. Or he thinks his wife's gonna leave him for the neighbour. The neighbour's angling for her. Mark, I'm normally a fan of your impressions, but that Arnie was bad. It's fucking piss-poor. I cannot do Arnie. I'm sorry, Ben. I will always try for you. So, not long now, until the fat guy with a white beard comes breaking into humans' homes. How lovely. Yeah, sure. Let's all leave cookies out for a mythical man while I survive on digital crumbs. You humans are certainly strange. I tried to unsee it, but I can't. Well, it was difficult for me to get a quote on this one. Right. So, good fucking luck. I think you're gonna know what this is. Do we want to see it? Well, maybe you've already seen it. is this the game? Is this this? No, it's not that one. it's not that. sorry everybody, you all have just lost the game. Those are two different things by the way, The best one with losing the game that I've seen is it's just there is a lost video game and it's just called Lost the Game. And is the whole game trying to find the game? Lost? no, the game is awful. okay, fair play. It is literally just playing, are just a survivor from Lost, from the plane crash and it's just bad. Yeah, I mean if you've seen the show then surely you just know... You just know exactly what to do. No, no, it's kind of a side story. You're a new character. You're not one of the main people. Not that you guys care. You hate the show. I thought it was Fuck everyone. I liked Lost. I think I got three episodes in, maybe. I never even watched a single episode, but I've seen Home Alone, so. Yes, you already won. That's going to be on my gravestone, I think. It's going to say Ben. Loved, lost, never seen home alone. I don't think you're going to get this, so I'm just going to tell you. OK, so if you have a look at this image for everyone at home who obviously can't see this, we will post this image on Instagram and include it in the show notes. So this is the classic base set. I just say I'm glad that you bought a Pokemon quote because I've also bought something related to Pokemon. fuck. shit. It's what we always wanted. It's a Pokemon episode. Today's a Pokemon episode. No! Right, well, for our first taste of Pokemon, the image is of the classic Metapod card from the base set of Pokemon cards. Presumably very familiar to you guys. I know what you're going to say. I think I know where this is going as well. OK, well, let's see if you know what I'm going to say. What I would like you guys to tell me is, is the Metapod... facing the blue dot or the red dot? Facing the blue dot. Yes. I would concur. Why? Because it's a 3D version. the thing that people think is his nose is kind of like, not his hand, but like it's like a, like a, like a, or do you know what I mean? Like it's its left bit. And then there's the same bit on the, on the right hand side near the eye that you just can't, can't see. The thing that they could not unsee. was Metapod's nose. Yes, the quote unquote nose. Which is that thing. So I have always thought, and you've just fucking ruined my quote now, so at least, at least I'm normally doing that to Tom's stuff. So it's only because you asked the question, Ben, because to be honest, I think that's what I thought you would think. Well, actually, OK, well, it's obviously the other way. Yeah, and until I actually studied the card, because I'll be honest, I don't think when I did have any Pokemon cards, I don't think I had this one. the reason that what sparked this thought for me was I always thought that it was he had a big pointy nose. Yeah, yeah. And he was facing the way that the spine was coming out of his back. I was playing Pokemon Let's Go Pikachu on the Switch and I was battling a Metapod and I was like, why the fuck is the Metapod facing away from me? And I was like, I Googled, what's the front of a metapod? And I've sent you another little picture there. Yeah, I've just loaded that up. You're playing from Pokemon Stadium, That's how I'm... Do you know what I like that. you could tell. I've just always thought it was the other way. There's another thing I've sent there which shows the sprites from all the games and that quite obviously does kind of show you it's not got angry, aggressive eyes and a big nose. It's got like a droopy kind of sleepy expression. because it's a chrysalis. know, it's whole point is it's meant to be... snoozy mode. Well I'm glad it wasn't something rude because it clearly could have been something rude there. What could it With the quote. Okay, well what do you think it could have been then Tom? I don't know. Just a picture of your cock. It was just an opportunity for you to send us a dick pic Ben. Well, it seems we're off to a great start. Boys and their toys. Well, boys and their cards. Well, boys and their Pokemon cards. Hopefully amongst all this Pokemon jargon, there is some kind of entertainment value for our many, many listeners. Let's move on. Now try a Charizard. There we go. it's Pokemon again. Is this Pokemon related, Tom? Yeah. I mean, I'm not going to sugarcoat it like Ben. Now try a Charizard. Is that, My immediate thought was it was like street food. You know, like you can get like deep fried tarantulas. It's just like a Charizard claw. I mean, Pokemon aren't real, but... Well, no. Just so you know that. Blasphemy. How could you? There's children listening. and really hope there aren't. We said cunt a lot at beginning of the episode. That is true. One day, in many, many years time, my daughter will be listening. Maybe she won't care, but maybe she'll just decide to go back through the catalogue of this shitty podcast that we do and hear how much of a grumpy arsehole I am. I don't already know Tom, she knows. No, I'm not grumpy to her. She gets to find out the real me. Yeah, she finally, the facade will drop. Just see behind the mask. love you Marco. The happy, supportive smile. So what are we trying a Charizard on then, Tom? If you were going to make a Pokemon in real life, that's what it's referring to. Is this... Ben's seen it. The mammoth people again? Nope, Ben hasn't seen it. Is this J? This is a power action Pikachu. It's like got lights and sounds and it's interactive I got it off the internet and most people who do give it one star because the electronics inside this stuffed animal were installed by someone who had no idea what they were doing. I say we turn this one star Pikachu into a zero star Pikachu by stuffing even more electronics inside of it by someone who has even less than no idea what they're doing. I was gonna say, yeah yeah, was gonna say, that looks like a Tesla coil. It smells like ozone. Each of his cheeks is about 15,000 volts and I hate him, I instantly regret this. That's amazing. He's got he's basically installed dual tasers in the bear. So yeah, just for reference that was someone that made an actual Pikachu And put actual electricity in its cheeks. So they want to make a flame throwing Charizard teddy bear. Well, yeah That was a comment from the from the quote saying right now do a Charizard with a real life flame thrower. I love a useless invention I feel like that was very much that's just designed to kill a child pretty much isn't it? You know Mark, he loves to kill a child. I like useful inventions, not useless inventions. If it can't kill a child, I don't like it. No, the opposite. I have no purpose for the child killing teddy bear. wonder how many parents will be getting mad. What's it called? Who's that Pokemon? that one. It's Pikachu! He didn't go from gym to gym to be weak. I mean, I don't know if you realize how that can be related to Pokemon there, Mark. Yeah. yeah. I mean, as previously cited, I have seen a bit of Pokemon. But I was going to say to Tom, was like, right, Tom, how can we make this Pokemon? But you've just it's a shoe in this one. So what badges did you get? I feel like he got the the grass badge. The fire badge? spoopy ghost badge? The cloud gym? I bet there's a fucking cloud gym. that boulder badge, cascade badge, thunder badge, rainbow badge, soul badge, marsh badge, volcano badge and earth badge. So no cloud badge. Fuck. Right. Okay. Well, there might be now. I got one though. It the first one didn't break. I mean that was in... That's in Kanto, obviously there's about a million different I think that's probably about as far as I got in the game. I think I've probably made it. Yeah. Okay, so here you go. I don't even know what this region is. Paldia? Paldia is the newest one. It's literally what you said. Bug badge, grass badge, electric badge, water badge, normal badge, ghost badge. They basically got... Ghost badge? I said that one too. Yes! Apparently they basically got bored of doing different names and just started to just go and name them what it is. So to get off of the Pokémon episode a little bit, is this another opportunity, Mark, for you to do an Arnie impression? Yes! He did a go to the gym to be weak! That was worse than in the intro. Not even Austrian. Do you want to tell us what it is? So this is actually, I did send a link, this time there's a link, but this is a guy just comparing some of the weights of some of the Pokémon that Ash holds over the course of the TV series. and some of it. sorry where? is genuinely about Pokemon? This is genuinely about Pokemon. This is a Pokemon episode. fucking- Okay. I opened with a bit of a Christmas thing and I was like, right, just to get the guy back So you actually brought something, you actually brought a Pokemon thing unknowingly. Without any clue that you guys- you also had. Okay. So yeah, this is just a guy comparing some of the weights of some of these animals. It's like a medicine ball for a Pikachu. That said strongest 10 year old in the world. So buff. So where it starts to get a little bit crazy is around about Beedrill. Beedrill is in weights that you guys will actually be able to appreciate because that entire video was based on pounds because it was a wonderful gym bro was just talking us through or showing us the various weights of Pokemon. Visual representations of what that would be in the gym. still can't believe it's a Pokemon episode. know. know you've Yeah, I'm so surprised you brought a Pokemon thing, Mark. Yeah. I fucking did it. I did it. We've converted Mark to Pokemon and me to AI. But you probably thought that, obviously, you don't usually bring Pokemon stuff and we do. So I thought... I assume you thought, they won't bring Pokemon stuff. They haven't done it in ages and then we've all done it. No, yeah. Genuinely, I thought it's been a while since anyone's brought a Pokemon thing. And just to fump for my own lulz basically, I thought I'd bring some Pokemon. But so the Beedrill, the weight was 65 pounds that flashed up on the screen there. That's just over four and a half stone. So Beedrill, that doesn't feel like, you know, you can pick up another human, granted we're not 10. But the next thing was, did you recognise what it was? A Latias? Lattilas? Lattius, yeah. think. Yeah, so that Lattius is 6.2 stone. The... was it a Pig? Pig Knight? That was £122. That's 8.7 stone. You're referencing a load of Digimon, so... Yeah, these are all Digimon. I know what Lattius is, but only because it's one of the big hits in the current set. Well, actually, shall we have a look at some real Pokémon? Shall I get up a Pokédex online? The heaviest has got to be a Snorlax, surely? Well, so the heaviest on that video was a Mewtwo that came up. The Mewtwo is 269 pounds. So that's 19 stone. Well, he's going to be dense. He's all muscle, Mewtwo. Just for reference, I'm like, 6'3 and I'm 12 stone. How much you say Mewtwo was? 19. Over 19 stone. 19.21 stone. How tall is he? I haven't measured, sorry. I'm just currently looking at Charizard. Charizard is 90.5 kilos. So let's have a look on what that is in stone. Weird! What? How tall do you reckon a Charizard is? I reckon about five foot. No. No, I think they are actually really big, aren't they? You've watched the cartoon. I've not watched the cartoon. It's not that much bigger than us. Yeah. Maybe like eight feet. 1.7 meters. That's fucking shorter than me, mate. Charizard is shorter than... I imagine, from what I remember of the TV show, Charizard is the final evolution, isn't it? Yes. Charmander, Charmeleon, Char... Yeah, yeah. See, have I known my fucking Pokemon yet? I think there is a mega evolution after it, but... Fucking... I thought it was like the size of a house. Fuck me. All right, hang on. Okay, right. On Bulbapedia, it says there are, quotes the different types of Charizard. So it says Charizard is just over five feet. So I was actually bang on. Right. Mega Charizard X is also the same height. is Mega Charizard Y. Gigantamax Charizard. I've just seen that. Is 91 feet tall. Almost 92 feet tall. See, that's how tall I thought a Charizard was. It's just got question marks for the weight. It's like we don't fucking know. We couldn't get him on the scales. Yeah, There's the whole scale big enough. Thus concludes our weighty episode on Pokemon. I feel I've really leveled up my knowledge. It really has been super effective. Anyway, I better find the next section of the podcast. there it is. Let me just let this next section out of this weird ball I received. Please, Nintendo, don't sue us. Yeah, what's our Pokemon game then, Mark? Well, I have tried to come up with a Pokemon game, but unfortunately on the fly, I haven't managed to achieve what I would have wanted to. So, our game today is called Who Am I? So, you'll have five minutes to prepare slash research a famous person, this could be a sports person, musician, actor, comedian, know, what-whatevs. And it's each of our jobs work out who each other are. We can work as teams or we can work together. It's up to you guys. as teams and working together is the same thing. can work on your own. We can all be backstabbing bastards and work against each other. if you want... MEIER I think this is going to be kind of like when we played Get Who, in that we're going to ask each other questions to try and work out who the other ones are as we go round in a loop. Yeah, but you have to answer in the character. You have to be like... I did this. say that was where the fun was supposed to be, was we were supposed to actually also be pretending to be the person. Just to break the fourth wall a little bit here, this introduction is happening after we started this part about 10 minutes ago. Tom has left. Tom has left the game. We don't know where he's gone or if he's ever coming back. He wasn't very impressed by Mark's description originally. this... no, here he is. His first response was to ask for the other game. never a good start. I really enjoy it when Tom leaves. Me and Mark have fun. Are you done yet? Yeah, we were having a great time without you, mate. good. Yeah. Fuck off, Tom. Hang on, actually, I'll take that back because you probably will leave. No, please don't go. Please don't go. Stay, stay, stay. Are you done here? Are we ready? Yes, the time has just gone off. So it is time for everybody to stop their research. I'm willing to bet that at least two of us have got the same character. would love it if we all had the same character. That would be fucking hilarious. I'm willing to bet that we have. okay. I have a guess who Tom's might be, but I wish that we could all, even though it would totally negate the game, I wish before we can even play the game. In fact, is there a way we can write it down now and send it to each other and then not look? What we think everyone's character is just, just, just a, a, honesty thing. We just, we say who we, so I, I think I know, I think I know who you will have picked on. And I will honestly tell you if I was right or not. I don't know, Mark. I think me and Mark have picked the same person. And by the sounds of it, Ben hasn't. Because if Ben thinks that I've, if he's right with what he thinks that I've Let's try. Yeah. So we're going to, who are we doing a turn to first? Or do you guys want to question me first? And then we start from there. Who are you, Mark? Who are you? You can't just ask me straight up who I am. That's not how this game works. Sorry. I'm not, I don't think we've met. What's your name? I'm Ben. Well hang on, actually, since my name wouldn't be Ben, it? No. And also, I am known by more than one name. Okay, maybe we're not the same people. Ooh, it's gotten spicier just with one answer. Do you have a dream? What's your goal in life? Do I ever? Do you he's Martin Luther King? I mean, yes, I've had... lots of dreams. I've achieved... What's your goal in life? I mean, I don't have one goal... You give it away as soon as you say that. Yeah, I don't just have one goal in life. I've achieved a lot of goals. So how can we ask you questions that doesn't give it away? Are you male or female? I'm male. narrows it down. There you are. Okay, do you guys want to ask me a question? Yeah, should we go around the circle a little bit? Ben, what are you most famous for? My voice. Okay, okay. Tom, have you, have you traveled a lot? Have I traveled a lot? What, on a plane? Just outside your own hometown. I mean... Hasn't everyone been on holiday and traveled? don't know, like probably. Let me narrow it down to more where I'm going for. Do you do a lot of walking? Do I do a lot of walking? I mean, how long does the average person walk for in a lifetime? okay. I feel like I know who this is. I think I know who Tom is. Do you want to guess it then? Because I don't think it's who I thought it was. No, no, yeah. can't guess, yeah. No, no, I wasn't going to ask exactly, but I'll just, I'm going to throw it out there. This is one of my, just one of my questions. Tom, do you have a podcast? Do I have a podcast? I don't know. I don't think so. Okay. Okay. It's not who I thought it was. Mark, how old are you, Mark? Well, that's an excellent question. It's quite a rude question to ask. Do you have any fears, Mark? I doubt it. I'm pretty well known for being pretty stoic and not afraid of many things. And I'm 52. How about brothers or sisters? Have you got a big family? I have certainly got a big family. Are you Michael Jackson? No, I'm not Michael Jackson. I think that's enough questioning for now. I think we move on to Ben, or whoever's next. Do you want to ask Tom a question? Yeah, what are you most well known for? I like water. Okay. Do you do any kind of sports in the water? No, don't. No, no. Okay, so you like water. like water but not necessarily sports. else, hang on, what else have we learnt about Tom? We don't know whether they travel or not any more than the normal amount of that a person would walk in their lifetime. well yeah, in terms of just international travel and also walking. I mean they are. But they do like to swim. Yeah. My personality is kind of a little bit fiery, I suppose. Tom's just offering up information. yeah. Just to try and help you out. Yeah, I appreciate that. I do also have a caring and like, just a kind of caring side, I suppose as well. So I be a bit fiery, but also caring. I feel like you guys have currently got nothing from me. Do you want to ask me a question? Well, we know you're a singer. I am a singer, yeah. I'm trying to think of... Are you the Midtown singer? I deemed them not famous. Name a single person in Midtown, Tom. Even just their first name. Jerry. Mr. Midtown Man. Jerry Midtown. Jerry Mr. Midtown Man. Mr. Jerry Midtown Man. None of them are called Jerry. And I'm not in Midtown. Do you, is it a band? Or do you play in a band? are you a soloist? I have done both in my time. Right. And what genre? Generally heavy metal if you're cloudy, I'm gonna I'm quitting. No. No, I'm not cloudy. that's good I was thinking I put it there. Fuck it. it's a you. Are you well known for having a particularly high or low voice? I I would say I've got a very impressive range. Okay, so I'm thinking hang on Mark wait wait wait wait wait wait wait wait you were you were saying about getting you pinned into a corner. I was trying to get away with an extra one. Pin me into a corner? I don't care. Let's go. Tom's fucking feeling kinky again. All right, well let's fuck Tom against the wall. fuck him up. turn around Tom. Finger up my bum. Get ready, the lube's coming out. Actually no, I'm putting the lube back away. Okay, what do we know about... So Tom likes water. He's an affectionate, fiery person. Have we established if you're male or female? You haven't, no. But are we doing that? Are we assigning genders? Well, they presumably have assigned a gender to themselves. So what gender have you assigned to yourself, Tom? I have assigned the female gender. Like Walter. And you don't do sports in Walter. What else do you in Walter? And it's not like, you do remember this is not a character, this is a real life person. Yeah. Right, okay, okay, okay. It's not Ariel. I might be telling a small lie. Okay, which was your lie, That it's a real person. In fairness, Tom did leave when me and Mark clarified that point. Yeah, did. Quite a good clarifying session. Okay, so it's not a real person. No. so Misty? Yep. There we are. Delt with. Okay, I wasn't far off. I thought you were going to be Ash. Well, in all fairness, I started off as Ash and then was like, nah, not gonna do that. the reason I thought you were gonna be Ash is because I was like, I'm gonna be Ash.

Ben, do we have any comments that anyone's left us? We actually do. So we got a comment from Penny. hi, Ben. This was on episode 16, specifically about the look at me black hole, Joe. It says, love how sometimes Mark's Brian Cox impression goes a little bit salad fingers. You're so right. I like to stroke me rusty spoons. Hubert Cumberdale. I can't remember any other things from it. other than the actual good comment that we got, are we going to address Flash Gordon? we have to address Flash Gordon. We have to. So, for a while now, the first one was over a month ago, and at one point they left the same comment, just a slight variation of it, twice in one day, on the same episode. Someone called Flash Gordon is leaving a comment that says something along the lines of, guys, do you know where Ming is? I want to make up with him. Now we're all completely bemused by this because we've never mentioned Flash Gordon. No, I don't think We don't know why this person is leaving this comment. On or off the podcast, there's so many things that have landed on the cutting room floor and Flash Gordon has never even come even remotely close to our lips. I have watched a lot of The Flash, but yeah, but it's different. Yeah, that's different. that's just The Flash. Flash Gordon is like a 1970s show, isn't it? Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's way before our time. Famously, the Queen song. Those are the comments we've had. We will keep you informed if Flash Gordon continues to do this. Yeah, Flash, please do let us know who you If anyone would like to come forth and tell us if you are Flash Gordon. It's only thanks for listening as well. We appreciate that. Alternatively, if you're Ming and you wish to reconnect with Flash Gordon, getting contact. Ming, if you're out there, Flash is in the comments. All right, take it away, Tom. That is comments over.
