00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:14.040
I love Halloween Halloween when I was a

00:00:09.210 --> 00:00:17.130
kid in England Halloween had not yet

00:00:14.040 --> 00:00:21.119
taken on the the glorious American

00:00:17.130 --> 00:00:23.010
trappings which it has now um we were

00:00:21.119 --> 00:00:24.420
just nervous you were told that

00:00:23.010 --> 00:00:27.750
Halloween was the night when the witches

00:00:24.420 --> 00:00:29.369
came out and the ghost came out and when

00:00:27.750 --> 00:00:32.700
you probably shouldn't be out of your

00:00:29.369 --> 00:00:36.320
house and so on the evening of October

00:00:32.700 --> 00:00:38.910
thirty-first we were just a bit scared

00:00:36.320 --> 00:00:41.309
which seems like these days looking back

00:00:38.910 --> 00:00:43.290
on it a waste of not just a perfectly

00:00:41.309 --> 00:00:46.140
good holiday but the best possible

00:00:43.290 --> 00:00:48.360
holliday and while I'm actually not the

00:00:46.140 --> 00:00:51.329
biggest fan in the world of American

00:00:48.360 --> 00:00:55.020
culture spreading I like to think that

00:00:51.329 --> 00:01:00.090
the fact that right now I'm in London

00:00:55.020 --> 00:01:02.609
and I'm walking the streets of London

00:01:00.090 --> 00:01:06.150
and there are shops filled with giant

00:01:02.609 --> 00:01:09.030
killer rabbits and murderers and bloody

00:01:06.150 --> 00:01:12.240
hands and spiders and how much cooler

00:01:09.030 --> 00:01:14.760
than that can you get really wonderful

00:01:12.240 --> 00:01:16.710
so this is my holiday this is my

00:01:14.760 --> 00:01:19.920
festival this is the one time of year

00:01:16.710 --> 00:01:21.409
when I feel completely at home it's

00:01:19.920 --> 00:01:23.469
creepy

00:01:21.409 --> 00:01:23.469
you
