Emergency Questions
Would you rather date a man who was a 6-foot tall penis with a face like Mark Reckless or a man who instead of having a penis had a tiny man growing out of there?
I think the former actually. Yeah, yeah, because the other one is… well, it’s just you’d look into his eyes, wouldn’t you? It would be too awkward. Whereas the other… So not a Siamese type of thing? I think the whole idea is from a different world.
What celebrity would you like to be stroking your head as you die?
Ooh. Alive or dead? Someone with healing hands. I don’t know who that would be. McCoy from Star Trek. *Makes high-tech healing noise.* And suddenly you get better. Barbara Woodhouse. She’s probably quite good at stroking, isn’t she? I was going to say Rolf Harris, but…
When you eat asparagus, does your wee then smell of asparagus?
Yes, it does.
If you could have a hand made of ham or an armpit that dispensed sun cream, which would you prefer?
But do you mean, not in aspect? Is it like a processed ham? Or is it, like, fresh? Crumbed? Yeah, yeah, well I’m sure that I could just do that. Make a sticky mess of me. Which factor? I think I’d definitely go for the ham. Yeah, ham, because then you could have a knife in the other hand and just carve away. Spend hours doing that.
Have you ever seen a ghost?
Ah, no. Do I look like I’ve seen a ghost?
Have you ever seen a bigfoot?
Um, has anyone? But it’s not a yeti, is it? Greg Davies, does that count?

RH tells story of Sara Pascoe responding to the asparagus question backstage. The footage of that conversation was lost.
Previous RHLSTP guest Greg Davies was MJ’s son’s drama teacher; they met in a parent-teacher meeting.
Title of this episode is taken from an incomprehensible note in RH’s notebook. MJ immediately made up a one-liner based on this note, at RH’s request.
