00:00So this is a hard point in the interview where you don't know if honesty is
00:04matters or not. Hi I'm Sophie Skelton and I'm Richard Rankin and this is Common
00:10Courtesy with Town & Country.
00:14Is it me? Yeah. No it's... yeah. No. It's you? It's me? Please after you.
00:21You meet an Outlander fan who is passionately upset about the outcome of
00:26the latest season. How do you console them? I say, listen, what was your name?
00:33Linda. Listen, Linda. Listen, honey, Linda, listen. Honey? I don't think you've ever used the word honey in your life.
00:40Well with Linda I am. Of course because she's upset. She's passionately upset.
00:45Of course. I say, Linda there is plenty of other television you can watch and many
00:50have better endings, more interesting endings. I can suggest a few shows for
00:54you to watch to help you recover from this trauma that you've suffered.
00:58Actually, you're Scottish so I think your reply would be, get to fuck, Linda.
01:02Yeah, but this is about pretending that we have manners.
01:08You're at an exclusive event and you see that your childhood celebrity crush is also in attendance.
01:14Do you approach them? This is a better question for you.
01:18Why? Because you have a list of your celebrity crushes.
01:24Oh, yeah, but we won't want to do that.
01:26Okay. Do I approach them? No.
01:28No. No. You probably don't, do you?
01:31No, I don't. No.
01:32Unless you've had a few and not unless it's politely with manners.
01:37What, like yours would be, Emma Stone, please may you marry me.
01:40Thanks for that.
01:43A fan approaches and asks for a selfie, but they have confused you with another actor.
01:48How do you proceed?
01:49I say, Linda.
01:52Linda, listen, honey, I'm afraid I can't oblige because I would be pretending to be someone that
01:57I'm not and that's not going to benefit you or I.
02:00You or me.
02:03I was waiting for it. I hope you find the person you're looking for.
02:06I wish you all the best and Godspeed on your journey.
02:10You just make Linda's day.
02:11But it won't because she'll later realise, she'll be like, oh my god, that's not who I thought it was.
02:15And then she's going to be embarrassed and then she's going to be wanting to go on socials
02:18and then people are going to see her and they're going, oh my god, that woman thought you were
02:20someone else. And they go, oh, I see the resemblance. I'm going to be embarrassed.
02:23What if it's Linda's dying wish to see that actor and she doesn't ever realise it's the
02:27one that's really cool? So who are we talking about here? She's going to be like, oh my god,
02:29David Harbour, I love you. And I'm going to be like, yeah, okay, I'll be the, yeah,
02:35I'll be your stranger thing and take the photo.
02:37I don't know. That's, that's, you know.
02:39That's manners.
02:41You're out with friends and someone in the group keeps correcting everyone's grammar.
02:47That's me. That's what you do.
02:49I know. It's making everyone uncomfortable.
02:51Oh no. Well.
02:52How do you get them to stop this person who keeps correcting everyone's grammar?
02:58I say, don't you worry about their reaction. That's on them.
03:01Everybody should want to learn and you do you. This is me talking to myself, by the way,
03:07because I'm that person. Are you talking to the person who is correcting?
03:09I don't know anymore because it would be me. I don't know what to do.
03:12You're running lines with a co-star and can't help but notice they smell horrible.
03:16You have to share an intimate scene with them later that day to you confront them about their hygiene.
03:23What do you mean?
03:24No.
03:27Oh man.
03:28I thankfully never had that experience before. It sounds awful. I can't, I don't know.
03:34I don't know, do you? Have I ever smelled really bad and you've thought, Jesus?
03:38No, you would say, wouldn't you? Would you?
03:42So this is a hard point in the interview where you don't know if honesty is bad or not.
03:48No. No, but you do it on purpose. Like when we had a scene in season two.
03:52Yeah, but that was part of the scene. And you ate lobster roll to make it.
03:54That was part of the scene though.
03:56Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
03:58I had to eat it in the scene.
03:59Yeah, of course.
04:00It's true.
04:02You think you've found your soulmate, but your friends and family didn't approve.
04:06They are trying to convince you to break up with your partner. Do you give in or do you fly back?
04:11Man, this is deep.
04:12Well, it's irrelevant, right? I think, I mean, that's a pressure that can be, you know, difficult
04:20to navigate. But I think if you're with someone and you enjoy being with them and you love them,
04:26then you should stay with them and forget what everyone else thinks or what their opinion is.
04:31But daddy, I love him.
04:32Very good.
04:34You know you want to sing it.
04:38I've been this baby.
04:41I know I'm that.
04:43But you should see your faces.
04:47One of your friends confesses that every time they try to watch Outlander, they fall asleep.
04:52You fell asleep?
04:54What do you say to them?
04:55What do you say to them?
04:56Cool, find something else.
04:57If they say, I fell asleep.
04:58Oh, that's okay. Find something else. Or, oh, he died. Or, cool.
05:02I go, well, you should fast forward to the Roger stuff.
05:05My response actually would be, you fell asleep.
05:07You fell asleep?
05:09And then if they didn't get that, then?
05:10Then it's over. The friendship's dead.
05:13You're on your first date.
05:15And they are insisting that you act like your character in Outlander.
05:19They're even calling you Roger.
05:22How do you get out of it?
05:23I say, Linda.
05:26Listen, Linda, honey, listen.
05:31I can't keep doing this for you because I want you to get to know the real me.
05:36And I think that our relationship can really flourish, whereas probably not so much with Roger.
05:43But you are the real you. You are Roger.
05:45I'm much, much better than Roger.
05:49And I think that if you just allow yourself to realise that, then we will have a much better time.
05:55I promise.
05:55And then you say, Linda, please don't Roger me.
05:59Yes. Linda, please don't Roger me.
06:03Does that mean the same thing that it means in England?
06:05I don't think so.
06:06So, Rogering someone is, you say it.
06:09No, you.
06:11Rogering someone is like, having sex with them quite fashionably.
06:15Vigorously.
06:16Cool. So, Linda's had a good first date.
06:20What else?
06:21Nah, she keeps calling me Roger.
06:23You're trying to impress your significant other's parents,
06:26but they keep making negative comments about you whilst you're in the room.
06:29How do you handle the situation?
06:31Aw, that's mean.
06:33Yeah. I say, listen.
06:35Linda.
06:36Little Linda, your mum and dad are being between us.
06:41Complete ****s.
06:42So the word **** his man is tears up.
06:44I know, but there's a point where you lose your patience, isn't there?
06:47Richard, that's matching my manners and my manners.
06:48I say, why are you saying mean things about me?
06:50So your idea of manners is blowing up the situation?
06:52Yeah, I'm just going to leave.
06:53Perfect.
06:54I'm just going to go.
06:55Don't try this at home.
06:57You run into an ex that you'd really rather avoid.
07:00They see you before you can make your escape.
07:03What do you do?
07:04Depends how the ex was.
07:05Maybe just leave.
07:06You want to chat chat if you don't leave?
07:09You do you.
07:10What about you?
07:11Probably cry.
07:12Pfft, fucking hell.
07:16Okay.
07:18It didn't end well with Linda and her parents.
07:21Thank you for watching us on Town & Country.
