Subtitles section Play video Print subtitles I have a folder on my laptop containing flattering photos of me that I have asked my family to give to the police should I ever go missing. LAUGHTER David's team. So, erm, how, how many in the range? I think at the moment, cos I'm quite picky, it's around about 55 to 60. LAUGHTER Oh, so that's a good range for the police to choose from. Yes, well, I wanted to give them options. Yeah. Where did you get this idea from, Tom? Erm, I think I just always, whenever I watch things like Crimewatch, or the news, I always think to myself, I would hate to look like some of the people on there. LAUGHTER What, do you mean the quality of the photograph? Yes, yes. More than the crimes? Oh, who cares? LAUGHTER What sort of poses did you pull for these photos then, Tom? Erm, I think it's always good to look like you're smiling, isn't it, because I think that would probably encourage more people to come and find me. So, show us. Have a look at, have a look down seven and give us pose number one. So anything where I'm like... LAUGHTER God. I'm surprised anyone would want to take you. LAUGHTER What did you call the folder, cos it must have a name, on your desktop? What did you call it? Well, I, I just call it, I call it, erm, Emergency Photos. That could mean something else, Tom, to be fair. LAUGHTER "My wife's out tonight, I'll need the emergency photos." LAUGHTER Emergency photos for if the Wi-Fi goes down. LAUGHTER "I'm going to have to do this the old-fashioned way." LAUGHTER Do you, do you play around with filters and stuff, I mean, is there a sort of disappearance filter? What, so I look like I've got bunny ears or something? Yeah. Sepia, you could do it sepia, and then it would look like you disappeared hundreds of years ago. LAUGHTER Well, what do you think, Geoff? I just hope this doesn't end up being chilling archive footage. LAUGHTER Well, some of the, some of the photographs you see on the news and stuff are so miserable, where people are, like... I mean... You think, "Oh, I'd hate that to be me." ..when you're being kidnapped, I don't think that's, like, the main thing that you'd be worried about, if you was in someone's cellar, handcuffed to a radiator, you'd be thinking, "Jesus, I hope they don't use Malaga '97 photos"? LAUGHTER But why would he need 53? Well, I suppose he wants to give the programme makers a range. How many outfits did you bring for this evening's recording, Tom? Well, I brought three suits and I bought five shirts... OK, it's true. Blatantly. I bought lots of... See? I came with none and found this in the bin. LAUGHTER You think it's true? Yeah. You think, do you think it's... You DON'T think it's true? No, I don't, actually. Oh, this puts me in an awkward position of having to think. LAUGHTER My instinct is that it's a lie. All right. Tom, was it a lie or were you telling the truth? I can tell you, it was a... ..lie. APPLAUSE
