It's stiff
0:00
Are they going to come back? On their dinner seats. The two or three people that may even know that reference
0:07
Well, obviously everyone knows the answer to that is ****. Emma and Aaron, welcome to Hearts Evening Show
0:12
And thank you for joining me on a Boxing Day. A day where the UK has no idea what to do
0:17
Emma, what's a traditional Boxing Day like for you? I feel like I wake up late, right
0:22
Because of the food coma. Aaron, a typical Boxing Day for you? Well, I mean, this one, we're spending it with you right now
0:27
Yeah, that's our Boxing Day. But on a typical one, I'm the same
0:31
It's definitely, I actually prefer Boxing Day over Christmas. Yeah. Christmas is like super anxiety making at times
0:40
Because I'm a parent, so I think also there's that sort of, there's anticipation, there's all this stuff
0:46
But once you kind of got through the present thing, then you're like, oh, you can just like relax and enjoy
0:52
and it's like the best. So yeah, I think it's definitely, everyone can just still roll around in their pyjamas
0:57
and then sit down and crash in some movies. Yeah, movies. Love movies around Christmas time
1:02
That is the best thing ever. You guys have got a massive film out in time for Christmas
1:07
Emma, I wanted to ask the legend, the story, the myth, whatever you want to call it, of Nosferatu
1:12
has fascinated us for over 100 years. What is it about this character that both terrorises us
1:18
and also intrigues us as well? I think we all love a bit of darkness. I think we kind of love fear in a way, you know
1:25
I think it is quite confronting. And also immortality. Like, I think society is obsessed with the idea of living forever and vampires
1:33
You know, we've seen so many vampires in so many different iterations through so many stories and films and whatever
1:38
I totally agree. In fact, I think we've all gone through our, like, vampire era
1:43
where we, maybe sometimes as kids, often as teenagers. Aaron, is there anything you've spent time obsessing over
1:49
that has become useful as an adult? Did you have your moody vampire era My vampire when I was a kid it was interviewed with a vampire It was Tom Cruise and Brad But definitely that immortality thing of going through all the centuries and time
2:03
Whoa, I didn't realise that's what happens when you're a vampire. Emma, you're having an incredible 2024 run
2:09
Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman have just said how fantastic it was to work with you on Deadpool and Wolverine
2:13
Nosferatu is such a huge all-star cast. Present company excluded. Is there anyone you were particularly impressed by
2:21
Oh my gosh, it's so hard to... I mean, everyone was incredible, I think
2:27
I mean, I've always dreamt of working with Willem Dafoe. I've admired his work for so long
2:31
So that was like a real highlight. But I mean, seeing... I mean, Lily had such a demanding role
2:37
and the physicality and just... It was so demanding and watching her work was there in honour
2:42
It was absolutely incredible performance. So I felt really, yeah, lucky to be there
2:48
Aaron I couldn't take my eyes off your mutton chops um you've given us some fantastic looks
2:54
over the years this one was a very strong one I genuinely was gonna shave some chops in this
2:58
morning I was gonna say you could you could you could go there bro you could definitely do the
3:02
mutton chop thing well someone had convinced me that I didn't have enough real estate on the side
3:07
of my face to pull it off tell me about the mutton chop like you gotta commit you gotta firstly you
3:11
gotta commit because there's always that period it's like a bad haircut you know I mean um there's
3:15
a moment where it's yeah because also i had a big twizzly moustache to keep it yeah you get to have
3:22
the moustache wax obvs um and then and it just you know it gets better throughout the time that
3:28
you're committing to this thing so it definitely and the i did get caught um out and about in town
3:36
and that seemed to someone called me and was like what the hell are you doing and i was like
3:41
I'm working! It does become a thing. Well, I think people forget that that's sort of my job
3:47
but like they like what the hell And I had really long dark black bluey hair because it had to be dyed because i was from another i mean i looked horrendous but also when you know if i don wear a period
3:59
costume yeah people are like what the hell is it's an ugly um so that became very very strange
4:05
but yeah i do like to you know commit with the facial hair you know this is sort of a part of it
4:11
i'm like yeah i'll turn up with a handlebar mustache and a pair of martin child jams oh look
4:16
I love it. Vampires, famously scared off by garlic. Emma, what would repel you
4:22
I don't know what mine would be. I'm not very, I kind of eat everything. I'm not sold by the whole raw carrot thing
4:31
What's that? What's the whole raw carrot thing? Does a crudité just absolutely send you off the edge
4:40
Oh, no. Oh, well, you think they need to be cooked? Yeah, they need to be cooked. Is that not, yeah
4:44
I just think a raw carrot is good. I'm sorry, but I could definitely do a raw carrot over a cooked carrot
4:50
Yeah. No! Delicious. As well as the incredible performances, people are going to say how beautiful this film is
4:56
You immediately feel like you've been transported back to the 1830s. I always start imagining how I would do like 200 years ago
5:04
I don't think they'd have much use for radio DJs, but Aaron, do you reckon you would have done all right 200 years ago
5:10
I don't really know. I would have died for sure. I would have been like dedicated farmer, sort of, you know, I'd be definitely sort of in the sort of carpentry sort of thing
5:19
I don't think I would have lived to 34, that's for sure. I actually asked AI what Aaron would have done in 1830 in High Wycombe, your hometown
5:27
Does the word bodger mean anything to you? No. You would have crafted chair legs
5:34
So I do know that in High Wycombe, there is like a whole, the wooden chair
5:40
Yeah, there are beautiful. Next to the woods? Yeah. Emma, do you wanna find out what you would have been doing
5:43
in 1830? I would have died from consumption Emma do you wanna know what AI thinks that you would be doing next week Next week What does AI think of What was it
5:57
Companion to an older wealthy person. Yeah, there you go. Or governess, which..
6:02
Both are giving like chronically single, by the way. You're not like a companion to an older person or a governess if you're happily married
6:10
And finally, just to make sure I've done my job properly, this is something we ask all of our guests
6:14
It's called Please Stop Asking Me. So it's the question you think, we're not saying these are good or bad questions
6:19
just the question you think comes up quite a lot. And at this point in your career, you probably answered it enough
6:24
Maybe, I don't know. Yeah, you don't want to name it. Do you know what
6:29
I've actually got a theory with this. The nicest people always swerve this question
6:34
What do you think ours would be? Right, so it would be, who could Cassandra win in a fight against
6:40
So it'd be like, oh, who would win in a fight against Cassandra and Spiderman? Interesting
6:44
Yeah, yeah. Also because I haven't watched many Marvel films, so I can't, I'm terrible at that
6:49
I'll get a few of those too. I guess yours would be, this is the top answer in our office
6:53
I feel like you don't need to say it. Is there going to be a reunion of the stiff Dylans
6:58
from Envy's thongs and perfect snugging? Well, obviously everyone knows the answer to that is no
7:05
And then you know why I hesitate, I'm still just kind of like, as if there's some people holding onto the steering wheel
7:11
right now on Boxing Day. or they've got after Christmas they've got
7:16
a chowd into heart and they've gone are they going to come back
7:20
on their seats the two or three people that may even know that reference
7:25
but yeah no sadly sorry no but you know enjoy your ham and turkey
7:33
