\u201cI actually don\u2019t think we look bad enough. I think we were even worse than that and they went, \u2018you look awful\u2019.<\/p>\n

\u201cAnd I said, \u2018we are awful!\u2019 All of us.<\/p>\n

\u201cI mean that look that Piers gives me, I think out of all the looks I\u2019ve ever remembered that might be the worst. I was just as bad\u201d.<\/p>\n
