MTV: Yeah.

DB: There you go.

MTV: Oh, you’re going to stick around?

DB: Yes, I’m sticking around. Looks like Alice in Wonderland. (points at hat)

MTV: Oh thanks!

DB: Alice!

MTV: Who are you then? Who are you then - the rabbit?

DB: Yeah.

MTV: What’s the guy with the big clock?

DB: I like the guy what time is it?

MTV: I have no idea.

DB: What time is it?

MTV: What time is it?

DB: I don’t know, you tell me.

MTV: Dunno, you’re the one wearing the watch. But, yeah, thanks very much in and faxed in with some questions for you. So you’re ready for their questions? for coming in. You’re going to stick around and we’ve got some people who’ve called.

DB: I’m ready.

MTV: They could, you know, they could get quite close to the bone.

DB: S’okay, I’m ready.

MTV: They come from the fans.

DB: Are you ready? Are you ready?

MTV: I’m ready. Are you ready?

DB: I’m ready. I’m gonna put a team together tomorrow. Are you ready? Are you ready?

MTV: We’re ready. We’re ready. After the break we’ve got more questions for David, so if you’ve got any to ask him get phoning, get faxing and we’ll see you after these words.

DB: Are you ready? Gotta be ready.

Commercial break

MTV: Plays drums too.

DB: I’m learning. My friend Glenn Quinn taught, is teaching me. You know Glenn, he was on, he played Mark on Roseanne.

MTV: Oh, right.

DB: The actor, he’s a drummer.

MTV: He’s teaching you?

DB: God Bless Ireland, love Ireland, nice Dublin, it’s nice.

MTV: I’m going to Dublin this week.

DB: It’s the best city, great city, love Dublin.

Both: Love Dublin, love Dublin.

DB: Nice

MTV: Got a couple more questions that have come in for you. Now you’ve got a lot of fans, what’s the weirdest sort of fan thing you fan experience you’ve had? When someone came up to you dressed as something weird or they’ve sent you something weird or...

DB: (laughs) I was over at the Forbidden Planet Saturday and millions showed and these people came up and they were like real vampires. They had teeth and everything, no, actually...

MTV: I’ve got vampire teeth.

DB: No, these were a little bit longer. They were long. But that’s what they do, you know, it’s no big deal. You get the occasional strange letter. Some person wanted my socks. They wrote in saying, "Can you send me your socks?"

MTV: Did you?

DB: No, because I had just got out of a tunnel. I was, like, knee high in water.

MTV: Nice!

DB: So it was pretty rough, wouldn’t want those socks.

MTV: Now someone said, how would you explain Angel to someone who’s never seen him?

DB: Well, you know, he’s a multi dimensional cat who is, you know, who is on the curve of learning what humanity is really all about. Sensitive to its needs but yet open to the vulnerability of others.

MTV: But he’s, sort of, evil/good isn’t he?

DB: Evil/good. Yes evil, good, good, evil, bad or this or that.

MTV: What do you prefer playing evil or good?

DB: Both, actually. There’s something very good about both of them. I enjoy it.

MTV: Right, the next one is what was the first time you were asked for an autograph, when was the first time?

DB: First time I was asked for an autograph, ever?

MTV: Yeah.

DB: First time oh geez! don’t ,ummm...

MTV: Did you find it quite weird?

DB: Kind of bizarre, yeah.

MTV: Me?

DB: Me? I sign this? I don’t remember.

MTV: How do I sign my name?

DB: Sign here. Gotta crayon, marker?

MTV: But, listen, how long are you across for? How long are you still here in the UK for?

DB: I don’t know. I haven’t figured that out yet. I may stay longer, I may leave in the next hour. I haven’t figured that out yet.

MTV: Ok, alright, well listen, thank you so much for coming in.

DB: Thanks for having me, it’s a pleasure.

MTV: It’s been a pleasure to meet you and please take your hat with you.

DB: I will.

MTV: Please don’t leave it in the studio.

DB: Ah, no, it’s mine!
