I was once commissioned to paint a portrait of Giles brandreth's cat [Laughter]
Mr Charles brandreth is Charles bradwith presents uh strands of
the one show and he was an MP and he wears jumpers
structure of him okay okay how did he hear about
you I did a lot of art around the area not like graffiti but what is this area
um Barnes okay and I've always been an artist what what was the cat called that I can't remember the
name of the car it was a black cat right lucky lucky once you get paid 100 and like 30 pounds
got a hundred and like 30 pounds and also I'm allergic to cats so the cat pose for you or do
yeah absolutely sittings with the Cat shut up now I did paint a cat and go cat sit on that for three
hours I'll just the cat moves and it kept moving right it was the most annoying cat ever yeah
no come on
tonight [Applause]
impressions
anybody with half a brain would have taken a picture of the thing gone home and painted it
at home I love this man no I wouldn't have done that but I didn't have that choice she insisted
that I come so that I could sort of get to know the car I know the child is brandwis
do you know his cat I know his wife what's his wife's name she's called Michelle this
is what is that the show you're bluffing right it is do you know gel brand as well
so you were quite a good artist were you reasonably good if he's
paid 130 pounds yeah I should know that that's fine stay there
draw me a cat
I should at this point uh tell viewers at home that uh whilst we do like to
receive your paintings we can't return any of them
his face is going this is pretty good it's hard to do it quite
quickly obviously that's fine we're not for David this is an extreme sport
if people have just turned over they're gonna be thinking what Earth is David looking at
reveal the cat
for me it's time to make up your mind what do you think about Jack's story is he telling the truth
what was he in fact telling us a lie I am I'm right down the middle because Charles does he
know you at this point no he knew me through the family through mother and then my mum
Jack
true or lie it is true [Music]
yes it's true and uh this is the most exciting part of all we've got the painting here
To Us by the the brand Ruth Giles and Michelle and this is a bit special get ready
[Applause]
but that looks a bit like a dog it's the most canine cattle look at that
[Music] [Applause]
[Applause] thank you [Music]
