When the effervescent Sandra Martin (Queen Bee) of Gogglebox graces our microphone, you know you're in for a treat. From her regal rise out of Brixton's vibrant scene to schmoozing with the likes of David Beckham and Stormzy, her journey is nothing short of a rollercoaster of glitz, heartache, and hilarity. As she spills the beans on her first star-struck moment and the jarring shift from a life of scrimping to one of luxury, you'll be chuckling and gasping in equal measure. Her uncensored take on the Royals and her infectious laughter bring a sparkle to our chat that's as unforgettable as her stint on the beloved reality show.

Navigating the labyrinth of fame isn't all red carpets and spotlights, and Queen Bee doesn't shy away from the shadows. She opens up about the seismic shifts of personal loss, the sensationalism of the tabloids, and the intricate dance of inheritance battles. Yet, beneath the razzmatazz of her public persona, we discover the resilience born from her Brixton reign, the quiet contemplation in hotel rooms, and the poignant reflection on whether it's time for a senior home. Her story is a poignant reminder of how the past shapes us, and the strength that comes from facing life's unforeseen challenges.

Wrap up the episode with Queen Bee as she cuts through the celebrity tinsel, sharing candid tales from behind the scenes of reality TV and the candid challenges of living in the public eye. We delve into the complexities of family dynamics, the tribulations of mental health under scrutiny, and the life lessons woven through her uproarious anecdotes. And if you thought it couldn't get any more fascinating, hold onto your headphones: we're talking aliens, biblical befuddlement, and the whimsical wishes of a woman whose lust for life and laughter is as infectious as her love for Gogglebox. Join us for an episode that's as rich in wisdom and warmth as it is in wit and wonder.

Speaker 1:

Welcome to another exciting episode of KevJet the podcast. This week I'm excited to introduce to you UK's television royalty, gogglebox's own Queen B.

Speaker 2:

I was the Queen of Brixton. That's where they found me in the pub, sit down with my jewelry on. When I started it up until the five years, I was the number one that made the whole show. I live off my Gogglebox platform. I live off it big time Up to this day. Here now, kev, everyone said go back, go back, miss Gogglebox, go back. It was hard work being a celebrity because I wasn't taught how to be a celebrity, but I handled it very well. I was on Benefits next minute. I was in a Rolls Royce, in the Benz.

Speaker 1:

We talk all things, red carpet, television awards and who is the first celebrity she met? Only my, david Beckham. David, call me.

Speaker 2:

That was my first celebrity I met because he'd done a book signing and I went down there while everyone was in the queue asked David, went in to see David. When they turned around and they saw me, it all stopped. The book signing stopped. They ran to me for selfies. The security had to grab me and bring me round and back. The fact it's Stormzy Happened to Stormzy as well.

Speaker 1:

I'm not going to lie, queen Bee is a big personality and she was difficult to keep on track in conversation, but boy did we have a laugh.

Speaker 2:

You're funny, you're right, you're right. No, I wasn't. What was I trying to say? I was trying to show off.

Speaker 1:

What is Queen Bee's connection with Queen Elizabeth and the royal family? Well, she's got a whole take on the Windsors.

Speaker 2:

The family has got bad background. I've digged them out. They know each other from a long time. Sarah sucked the toe. Diana got married to a black man, andrew turned pedophile. The only one is that little small one and his wife. Were they cool, edward, he's ate enough of it. Then Sarah tried to blackmail Andrew Me, and Sarah was invited To the Queen's 80th, you know, and Prince Philip goes to me. Do you live in New York Windsor? I goes. No, I live in Brixton. I'm from Gogglebox, I watch telly. You watch me, me watching Bless him spitting all over the place.

Speaker 1:

In case you're wondering, she is busier than ever. She is booked up for a whole year now and she opens up about podcasts.

Speaker 2:

You're my first podcast, let me act normal. Yeah, you're funny, you made me got pimples.

Speaker 1:

Queen B is honest and hilarious. She had me howling from start to finish. You're going to love this episode.

Speaker 2:

If Goggles make me at 50 and I come out of jail three years, why was I in jail at 47? What was I doing? You damn thief? I must be shoplifting or doing fraud. Oh, I don't know. I love what you're asking me. I've never done this before.

Speaker 2:

I said I can't find no crackhead friends, can't put no crackheads on the TV, no, or criminals. You're funny, you know.

Speaker 1:

What's a conversation without breaking out the Bible?

Speaker 2:

Even the Bible's confusing me, because did you know? I've read it. When your wife dies, she's gonna marry your brother. It's in the Bible. I read it and, yeah, it confused me. Everyone was going with everyone.

Speaker 1:

Who is your favorite podcast host? Kev.

Speaker 2:

Jett. His name is Kev Jett, born the same day as me, 5th of February. Do you know him? He's cute, I look good. You know you look amazing. I can't wait for this to come out.

Speaker 1:

Sit back, relax and enjoy this feel-good conversation with Queen Bee. Welcome, queen Bee, to Kevjet, the podcast Amen. I feel like I should roll out the red carpet.

Speaker 2:

No, well, I was one on the other day.

Speaker 1:

Were you Tell me about that. I went to.

Speaker 2:

Priscilla, was it on the?

Speaker 1:

other day. Where are you Tell me about that? I went to Priscilla was it Priscilla?

Speaker 2:

yeah.

Speaker 1:

Do you know? I was there the night before you.

Speaker 2:

Okay, yeah, because they had. I got a pamphlet. I was here. Priscilla Party.

Speaker 1:

It's amazing. Tell me about your experience.

Speaker 2:

Well, no, I've been to quite a few drag parties before. My good friend of mine, simon gross. He does a lot of drag parties and you know gigs, events, yeah. So he rang me up on monday and said to me and would you like to come? Red carpet song, everyone's there. And I went there and it was nice. I've been to them before. But the main thing I was looking for when I was there was celebrities to take selfies with so I met.

Speaker 2:

Christopher Biggins and that black guy that was married, or was his girlfriend, vanessa Feltz. Vanessa Feltz, x-man sure and I met my Katie Price.

Speaker 1:

I saw that on social media. How was she?

Speaker 2:

She was very nice. We were laughing, she was looking at me, I was making her laugh, I made everyone laugh. You get me and the emails I saw. I think that was it, whoever I put up.

Speaker 1:

I saw lots of photos. I saw lots of photos.

Speaker 2:

You looked like you had a great time, I wish. But you know I should have done that yesterday when I went to my another um event, um luncheon event I should have brought my mic out. Because I've got a new hobby now wherever I go because I'm booked out until next year wherever I go I interview people. So I've done seven yesterday. You know different people doing things, so that's my little hobby with my little mic.

Speaker 1:

I saw that on social media and I love watching those video clips yeah, I'll be going because I'll be traveling, doing different places.

Speaker 2:

I will not when I was in. I'm going to Skegness soon, a couple weeks, and I'm going lazy Wherever I go, just to talk to interesting people and to find out how they feel about what's going on in the world and what they're doing and things like that.

Speaker 1:

It's such a great idea because if there's anybody in this world that deserves to be a host of a TV show, it is you.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, I know that's how far, that's how close I can get to being on. A host is doing what I do, but I'm glad I'm doing it because I'm talking to strangers. They're not celebrities.

Speaker 1:

I love that. I think that is doing their own thing. You know, everybody has a story.

Speaker 2:

And I say that every day, every day.

Speaker 1:

Love it. I absolutely love what you do on social media. You are so entertaining and I'm always looking at you on social media.

Speaker 2:

And then sometimes I see random, like I just put one of the fake. I've got to recall the word fake, mr T. Sometimes I see random pictures because I live off my Gogoboss platform.

Speaker 1:

I live off it big time sure, let's talk about that you did nine series on google box, didn't you well?

Speaker 2:

five whole years. I don't know how many series is that. Five whole years. I started it and um original cast yes, I was, yeah, yeah, yeah, I was glad that Channel 4, studio Lambert. When I started it, up until the five years, I was the number one that made the whole show.

Speaker 1:

You're the one that have everybody coming back.

Speaker 2:

I'll tell you that, yeah, yeah, up to this day here now, kev, everyone said go back, go back, miss Gogglebox, go back.

Speaker 1:

Let me know know I've done my bit, babes love it I I love it, and even with the reruns, when we see you come up, we just have to sit down and watch them yeah, yeah, just a minute ago on the news when they mentioned about they arrested somebody for george's death.

Speaker 2:

Sure a bit advert with um guess what they put on. I went, I was next to Sandy. They put on the drunken Stephen Dom Dom on as an advert and Sandy and I saw it wow, anytime I see anything to do with me, anything to do with Gogglebox everyone thinks about me it's amazing.

Speaker 1:

I mean, you're the first person, the first thing that people talk about when they talk about Gogglebox is they ask about you?

Speaker 2:

Yeah, all the time. I get it, every day, every day of my life. I get stopped, no matter where I go. Hastings, christmas gone. I was in Hastings for a week. A family invited me for Christmas dinner and a week with them. I said yes, yes, because I'm always with my family. And then Skegness I was away in Skegness. Then I went Portugal. Then I went Amsterdam and Benidorm. Everywhere I go, even in Portugal, people know who I am. I don't even know. I love it. Do you miss being?

Speaker 2:

on Gogglebox no, not really. No, no, I would go on it now because I'm old. Now, well, I'm not old, I'm 62 but this happened 11 years ago. But at that time Gogglebox is a contract show. That is why everyone's left I'm not the only one that's left, everyone else is left yeah, some's obviously died, but Gogglebox, you can't do certain things. That's why George got away with it. May he rest in peace. When he went into Big Brother and went back on it because you're not allowed to go back on a show Sure, sandy left to go on Big Brother. But when I left there, I could have stayed. You know, I swear down on my testimony. Bogomol said please stay, but I didn't want to stay because of Sandy. Sure, sandy had gone. And it was hard work being in a celebrity, because I wasn't taught how to be a celebrity, but I handled it very well.

Speaker 1:

So it just sort of happened overnight for you, didn't it?

Speaker 2:

Overnight, proper overnight. Next minute I was on benefits. Next minute I was on a Rolls Royce in the Benz and I won five awards.

Speaker 1:

I won the.

Speaker 2:

BAFTA awards and NTA, and three of my own straight 15, 16, 17 best personality of the year.

Speaker 1:

What was that like attending the BAFTAs?

Speaker 2:

It was Dermot O'Leary. I was sitting there and then when I got up I had a long dress on. You know, I was laughing because I had my shoes off. I had to take my shoes off and everyone was just clapping and I walked through the stage with me and Sandy, right, you know, I didn't know what to do about that. And then I went up there, had to come down the stairs to get me up because, you know, I had to lift up my dress to walk up the stairs. And then Sandy was up there and I made my speech and he made a speech and, yeah, man, I've met everyone. I've met every superstar in London, including John Collins and David Beckham.

Speaker 1:

I saw the photo of you and David Beckham today and I was very jealous no, listen.

Speaker 2:

When I started Gogglebox, that was my first celebrity I met because he's done a book signing, and I went down there and you know what happened. While everyone was in the queue, I asked david waiting to see david. When they turned around, they saw me. It all stopped. The book signing stopped. They'll run to me for selfies. The security had to grab me and bring me around the back. The fact that stormzy happened in storms as well. When people's in the queue looking to see them when it goes oh my god, there she is and they actually stop. That is the. I'm gonna forever talk about that until I die you should, you should stormzy and david beckham.

Speaker 2:

people stopped and left them to come to me and look at me.

Speaker 1:

As they should. Queen B Amen. Let's just take a second to acknowledge George, who passed away this week. I'm Gogglebox. He's part of your Gogglebox family.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, man.

Speaker 1:

That came as a shock.

Speaker 2:

It did come as a big shock, More than yeah, because I know him obviously. I just put his picture up. I met his family. I did know Pete as well, but Blake he passed away in three years. They said on TV a minute ago that's what I know. She's lost her husband and her son. She must be, and you know, lately everyone's dying and something's going wrong. So death is a serious thing now because everyone's feeling it, you know.

Speaker 2:

I mean it's true, it's true but, um, I don't know, it's sad and he's only 40 man and that baby I remember, I remember when she was pregnant, the wife, the woman, the girlfriend, you know, I mean yeah, yeah man such a sad tragedy has died on gogobox in, you know, but of old age or something you know.

Speaker 1:

That's true. In the last few years there's always been somebody, but this is quite a shock when it's somebody who's so young.

Speaker 2:

Yeah.

Speaker 1:

So we just wanted to acknowledge that. Yeah, man, I read something in the newspaper and I know you can't always believe the newspaper.

Speaker 2:

Yeah.

Speaker 1:

No, listen newspaper, and I know you can't always believe the newspaper. Yeah, no listen, I sell stories. Well, I read a story about you and it says that you've taken a job in a funeral parlor no, yeah, now what happened?

Speaker 2:

listen, there's always the some people love me. They always had to twist up everything. Now what happened? Look where I was yesterday. His name is Lord Brett McLean and over the 11 years I've been on Gogglebox, he's my charity events manager. Okay, his mom passed away. His dad's passed away in the last say, three years. Yeah, and he's my best friend. Yeah, I'm his best friend. Every event he's got, I go. Anyway, if you look in the newspaper, he went for a thing where his stepbrothers and sisters took him to court over when a mom died. The dad died first and the mom died after. I think Left him the house. It's think left in the house. It's a big story google it of 300 000 okay it was going on for years.

Speaker 2:

Even the newspapers came down, not newspaper, they came to my house. I was gonna do a little story on it, but the story's out, so it was on the tv, okay, I said. I said little bit, don't put me in it. You know what I mean, because you know it's a private thing. I don't want your family to know. I've been around your mum and dad and you for 11 years, you understand you ain't seen your family, sure? Anyway, cut the story short.

Speaker 2:

Lord Brett said I don't know where he got the money from, but said he's got the. I don't know where he get the money from, but he owns a house and he works. He works anyway. He's got about 20 jobs. Google him. Anyway. He said that I'm gonna buy a funeral parlor. Now, guess what? I was living there with him. September gone, october. I'll live there for three months because, I'm not gonna lie, I haven't got a permanent place at the moment. I'm living in hotels actually, which some of my haters don't like. Uh-oh, I got a hate campaign. That's another drama, anyway, listen. So Lord Brett bought a funeral parlor.

Speaker 2:

So last year I got all excited. I mean I'll be the cleaner because you clean the blood. I mean I don't know. But I was getting all excited because I was living in Hastings and the newspaper you can get in the newspapers in Hastings like this, they love talking. I turned around and said I'm going to be working in the funeral parlour and they put it in the paper. Just like every year I'm moving to Hastings. I'm a yo-yo. I ask everybody every minute I'm doing something. I'm living air dare everywhere. Derby. When I left Gogglebox I lived in Birmingham. Then when Covid come, I run to London. Then I run to Derby. Then I'm back here, I'm just active. It's a gobble box does it to me. So that was the story. I weren't going to go there, I'm back here in London.

Speaker 1:

I had visions.

Speaker 2:

If I wanted to. I was just going to be like the assistant. You know, when you come in and said my mum or someone's dead, I would have just wrote down the details. That was it. I can tell you a story about everything. Yeah, because you know the people like to. But I don't mind, I'm 62. I don't mind anything. You know what I mean.

Speaker 1:

I had visions of you in this funeral parlor and that would be the most amazing reality show.

Speaker 2:

it would yeah, especially when the dead bodies start coming in. Yeah, but but you know what, if I really really if I, if I could have got a property, because it's hard I'm on the housing list now and I'm gonna go meet someone next week, friday. Regarding my housing, yeah, because I'm gonna go back in one of them old people home again because I like them. I don't want to live on my own and I said to my children I might as well go in one now, because that's where you're going to put me in one later on, so I might as well just go in there from now.

Speaker 1:

At least you can choose it now.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, so I'm going to get another one it otherwise. At the moment I'm happy where I am Good.

Speaker 1:

You're always on the go, that's for sure.

Speaker 2:

I'm always on the go because I'm busy, I don't know, because I've got a character now about me. I didn't know about me, but I did Like until I started Gogglebox. You can't tell me that you were a quiet person up until Gogglebox. You're funny, you're right. You're right. No, I wasn't. What was I trying to say? I was trying to show off, you were trying to bullshit me somehow. No, no, no, but I was the queen of Brixton.

Speaker 1:

Okay.

Speaker 2:

That's where they found me in the pub, sit down with my jewelry on. I used to go party. What was I do? Babysitting. I just became a grandma.

Speaker 2:

She's 13 now, so you were like Nanny McPhee, yeah, and like when? Yeah, something like that. This is my first granddaughter. I weren't a real Nanny McPhee, but I was a grandma. When Gogglebox came into my life, yeah, because my granddaughter came on it for the first series. But when it started to get big now and she couldn't go to school, I went and took her to the nursery. I'm sitting there watching TV eating pot noodle.

Speaker 1:

How many hours a week did you have to sit and watch TV?

Speaker 2:

Listen, Kev, I can tell you what I said. I don't regret it. It's over. I've done too much. Now for my life. I've got a platform, a big platform. My 95,000 followers on Twitter has not left me. I had $100 and this went down a little bit. 50,000 on TikTok. They sold me to Netflix because I didn't see this contract. They still got me underneath them. Listen, what did you say? What was that question? Because I just got right off track.

Speaker 1:

How many hours a week did you have to sit and watch TV?

I was ready, they all came in the house because about six, seven camera crew, runners, producers, camera, music, noise, voice and whatever. And click, click, click, and so that's two, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight. Just say it would be like eight hours a day, let's say 16 hours. Don't ask me about the money that's gone now. Yeah, no, it's all right, I gave it away. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, the children are the good type. That's why they don't mind. They look after me, even though when I'm broke, when I went to Benidorm the other day, somebody, when I went to Benidorm the other day, somebody paid for my ticket and paid for my plane. I've got people that look after me because going to Benidorm is only 50, 60 pounds. You know what I mean. I'm in Europe and my kids gave me 100 pounds to spend.

One day I'm going to get the kids them too, and well, they can have it when they grow up into the grandkids they can watch me all over again I actually looked, I googled you and you can actually watch um full episodes on youtube yes, I know, yeah, yeah, yeah, I don't get royalties, do I?

Speaker 2:

I didn't see the small print oh see, that's.

Speaker 1:

That's because gogglebox was sort of the first reality type TV, wasn't it?

Speaker 2:

Yeah, yeah, but I don't worry because, like I said, I still got my platform. You do, and I still got a platform.

Speaker 1:

Sarah sucked the toe, diana gonna marry a black man, andrew turned pedophile. The only one is that little small one and his wife. But they're cool, edward, he's, I he's, and then I don't know what Sarah's daughter's doing. Then Sarah tried to blackmail Andrew that the queen I know the queen.

Speaker 1:

Do you think she was murdered?

Speaker 2:

No, I don't. I think it was an accident and all I want to talk. I think, harry, he does belong to Charles. I called him throwback Thursdays that ginger hair. He looks like Hewitt, but it's Froback Thursday because he comes from the Spencer side.

Speaker 1:

What do you think of Harry and Meghan?

Speaker 2:

Yeah, they're alright. You know what he's doing there. That's her next drama because she's black. I don't know if she's going to go see her daddy, because that is liberty. If you don't want to see the grandkids, and imagine if he dies, passes away and you don't see them kids, that is naughty. You shouldn't do that. So the man was confused. I would have done the same thing. Pretend solar story for Kentucky. You need your own show.

Speaker 1:

We need you on TV.

Speaker 2:

I know everyone says one day I'm'm alright, how I am, because somebody said it to me. I don't really want to go back. When I was on Gogglebox they dispelled me. I didn't know nothing about it. But the amount of hard work it is to be a celebrity, I can't keep up. I had to write. I had a psychiatrist, did you? They paid someone to look after me because in case I I said I end up like susan boyle. But you know, some people can't cope with fame. But I've done very well. They looked after me. I had a good agent. They watched me like hark. They've done everything for me, everything to keep me. I moved four times wow, let's keep away, brixton.

Speaker 1:

Let's talk about your friend Sandy. So rumor is that you guys are not friends anymore, so let's clear that up.

Speaker 2:

We just come back from Portugal. And we just done look Google us. We just come back from Portugal over the weekend. And then we was in Skegness. We was. We opened up a big club in Skegness for disabled people and Down syndrome and if you look at my post, we was on stage for hours while the whole of skegness came to take selfies free love that yeah, dan syndrome, this dan syndrome, woman wouldn't, wouldn't leave me alone, not in a bad way. She just hug, just hugging me all through, yeah, she was just there, you're just lovable.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, it's alright. I spoke to her Mother's Day and then she sent me the link, not the link, even though I knew already we're on WhatsApp. Innit, she does her thing, I do my thing. I don't want to do what she does. She likes a little red carpet. She likes a little red carpet. She likes the limelight with it.

Speaker 1:

I don't know why?

Speaker 2:

But she does the red carpet with all the fancy. I can't bother with all that. I do the local little stuff.

Speaker 1:

But you would steal the show anyway.

Speaker 2:

Another thing as well I don't charge. I can't charge because I want benefits. That is why, Kev, guess what I've done from the day I left Gogglebox to now. I don't charge. Oh, did you know when I went 100 years younger in 21 days?

Speaker 1:

did you? I didn't know that forget, forget this.

Speaker 2:

When I left Gogglebox, itv snapped me up and guess what? I was the only black person. Guess who I went to go live with. Forget this. When I left Gogglebox, itv snapped me up and guess what? I was the only black person. Guess who I went to go live with in Sardinia for 21 days to go underneath.

Speaker 1:

Shut up. I need to go watch this.

Speaker 2:

Yes, doc Cotton, russell Grant, ricky from MeSenders, sean Ryder, sherry Houston, kim from Emmerdale and Roy Walker. Eight of us. What was that like? It was wicked. They loved me all. Listen, we all lived together. They bought Sardinia and the river and the film crew Me, sean Ryder and Ricky. We got in trouble.

Speaker 1:

I find that hard to believe we were drinking at night.

Speaker 2:

If you ever look behind Sean Ryder's sofa, we was all drunk. And then we was drunk, no, no. And then the producers come knocking the door and I went like this Sandra, get out. Ricky went going around. It was raining that night, ricky went. It was raining that night. Ricky went out in Everest singing. I'm singing it all. Right, we was all drunk. Oh, that's the next best time of my life and I've done some pantomimes, but that went. One of them went wrong Google it, I'm going to pantomime.

Speaker 2:

And I've been jailed. Google it, somebody came up and channel 4 knew. You know, I've got so many stories, kev man, I need to take you out for a drink yes, anytime, listen, I need to take you out yeah, I'm just funny and I didn't know I was more funny.

Speaker 2:

I got a hate campaign. Yeah, what's the hate campaign? Yeah, the hate campaign is somebody I know right, because I have cut off a few people. Really horrible. When I went IB for, oh God, I have cut off some people I had a set of fans here Like I was living with this white woman, my best friend named Anne Marish, 83, she's bedbound.

Speaker 2:

She relied on me. I've done video, everyone, there's all the proof. People just jealous and they said, because it's an old white woman, they said I'm robbing her. The woman's got four carers in there. Social services come there. She's got two people that lives downstairs, the African man that's there, he's got the herb card and Amory's come on there. And I mean when the ambulance come, because everybody should go in the hospital. Yeah, they all know me, everybody know me.

Speaker 2:

But you see, people can make up things I can understand. Look, haters and trolls. They watch me 24-7. They say I'm poncing. People give me money. People buy my flight. They call it poncing. People buy me food. That's what happened.

Speaker 2:

I went to a restaurant. What's this? I sit in a restaurant and I've gone live. See me up. Yeah, everyone, I'm getting food Free food I was getting Because somebody liked me to come to open up the restaurant Next minute. The hater actually contacted the company. Every time I go to somebody they contact the company and slag me off. The company's like uh-oh, sandra, these people are wicked, I go. No, I go listen.

Speaker 2:

When I started Gogglebox, when I went to Gemma Collins' shop and Gemma Collins gave me three bags of clothes, I met Gemma Collins, I met Ryan Clark, all of them. I asked them I'm from Brixton, I'm black I'm not being funny. I eat cow food. I'm tough. I don't know about your celebrity life. You lot can't tell me about me. I can't tell you about your mother, your father and your dog. But I can't do that because I'm in the media eye so I don't cuss. But one time when I went to go and see what's his name, the guy with the walker's crips and he's got a brother Lineker, not Gary, his brother. He had a party. When he saw me, him say Ross, who are you? I had the club raving, you see, oh, kev. So I got a little hate campaign talking about me, honcing, begging, drinking, saying all these things and everything is all. Live it's jealousy.

Speaker 2:

I ignore them. The other day guess what I've been doing the other day? People say Sandra, don't do that, they don't trouble me no more. My haters don't trouble me no more. Guess what they do? They trouble my fans. One woman rang me up crying. They take their page and they slag them off.

Speaker 1:

Oh no.

Speaker 2:

Why are you talking to Sandra? And they get it. And then sometimes I'm bored, right Kev, and I said to everyone has anybody seen my haters? Because I haven't seen them all week. Is anybody around? I'm bored now.

Speaker 1:

Is everyone on holiday or what?

Speaker 2:

yeah, so but like Gemma said to me Gemma Collins, I remember she's the first one I met a long time ago when me said he went there with what's his name? Boom, you know that guy, boom, the one that died yeah, from storage. He took me and said up to jemma collins and jemma said you're good, because ain't they looking in your bins? Yet I goes, what bin? Because, and they're looking in your bins, they're looking at her bins outside her front. No, I ain't got none of it yet. She goes. Don't worry, love, you didn't start buying your bins. I goes, is it? So I started to wrap up my black bags and put in somebody who's been down the road years ago. I couldn't cope, but they don't Katie Price. When people talk about haters and things, I think about her, what they do to Harvey.

Speaker 1:

Sure.

Speaker 2:

They even haters and trolls, trouble people. That's even disabled. So look what they've done to Kate and these other celebrities. So I can't get better when I see that. Kev, have you got any? Have you had any?

Speaker 1:

Not yet, but now you have me scared.

Speaker 2:

Oh, don't, don't be scared, just ignore them Once they've actually contacted me not really contacted me Daniel Westbrook put something up on, because I talked to her on Instagram, that the trolls made her cry. I said listen, I just sent her a little message. She texts back and said thank you, sandra, I know it's hard. I know it's hard. Just try to block and delete. I've got this called the blocking finger and don't read it. I'm sure Kate and William don't read certain things, but some people might have to tell them just ignore and don't read it. I'm sure Kate and William don't read certain things, but some people might have to tell them Just ignore and that is what I do.

Speaker 1:

What would your advice be to Kate right now if she was looking for advice from Queen Bee? What would you say to her?

Speaker 2:

I would say Kate, kate, thank God, I think you must have the cancer. When you went for the operation, I think they must have took out the cancer so you're recovering. I don't know your business, but right now You've got to concentrate on them. Three kids, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, and your husband and your father-in-law. He's going through what he's going through, so do your best and ignore the world. You've done it very well. Yeah, yeah, yeah. She knows what to do. It's so sad she's getting trolled like whatever. And what's her name? Why do they want Kim Kardashian to apologize to her?

Speaker 1:

What do you think of the Kardashians?

Speaker 2:

No, I like them, do you? Yeah? And you know what my daughter said Mommy, you always like people. That people don't like, I like. They're doing their thing, everyone's doing them. Look at P Diddy and all these boys that's coming out.

Speaker 1:

What's your advice to him?

Speaker 2:

Come out as gay. Just, you know what, do what? I'm feeling it. I'm feeling P Diddy. There's a thing somebody put up Jay-Z's got missing. Beyonce, listen, I live off these people. You know, I don't live off no one in Brixton or London because no one ain't doing nothing. There's nothing going on. All my friends are crackheads, yeah, or teeth. I don't talk to them no more. I walk on my own and I try not to see them because they say, oh, it's a pound, no, I ain't going. And they want to beat me up Not really beat me up, because I don't want to give them a pound, because I look good. You see, when I go social, I'm just talking how I am. I've got all my rings on. You know, I dress up and say where are you going? I go, I might be broke, be on benefit.

Speaker 1:

Speaker 2:

I've tried, but I'm happy going. Yeah, I'm feeling P Diddy Kate. What next is going to happen?

He had cancer so and I was there with him when he died. For the last three months I cared for him. He's my younger brother. That pissed me off, yeah.

Speaker 2:

I'm immune now. Yeah, I took a blood test the other day that went viral. I'm waiting for the test to come back now. Oh God's sake, straight after Benidorm, they're going to do it. I know when they took that blood boy, there's going to be like a bottle of whiskey in that blood.

Speaker 1:

What is your drink of choice? Whiskey, whiskey, nice. What is your biggest learning experience that you've had?

Speaker 2:

Learning experience to ignore people, don't take it to heart. Yeah, that's my biggest one, when to shut up and can't kick off because of my satos sure I can't do.

Speaker 2:

I can't and I don't want to. I don't want to be horrible because at one stage you know I've got my Bible. Yeah, every morning I read a psalm to everyone. Yeah, right here I sleep in my Bible and a couple of years ago I used to read a Bible and somebody upset me and I started to swear and people. They said you can't do that in me, I'm going to stop you lot, just get up and meet me. Yeah, just to calm my biggest. Whatever you said, I'm calm now. I just take a pinch of salt. Now, growing up, I'm learning. Yeah, man, I like that.

Speaker 2:

From Channel 4, the man that owns Studio Lambert. I forgot his name. I've forgotten at the moment the man that owns Goggabox. I don't know if he owns it now. I forgot that in a moment. The man that owns Gogglebox I don't know if he owns it now. I know Tanya's left. I said to him I think this is what I'm going to say to you. I think this is my biggest compliment. I said to him listen, I'm doing Gogglebox, I want to do another. Could you give me something else to do, another job, because I'm big now? You know, hear him, I'll give you something to do. Sandra, do you want to go to Naked Attraction? I go. Why would I do that? Why would I frighten my grandkids? No, the biggest compliment I got, I don't know that. My daughter said I want to be like you, mum.

Speaker 1:

Speaker 2:

Yeah, that's it that is. Because of how I am. I go places, I make people laugh, yeah. She said mummy, I want to be like you, I go places, I make people laugh yeah. She said mommy, I want to be like you. Yeah, that's the biggest one.

Speaker 1:

That's a great compliment. What are three things that you could never live without?

Speaker 2:

Mobile TV and food. Do you see what happened the other day? What happened on Facebook? Remember when we had a lockdown on Instagram and Facebook?

Speaker 1:

Yeah.

Speaker 2:

That day. Guess what happened. I'm on the phone and it was a breakdown. Actually, I'm live on the phone. I can't get on it. I've got two phones I can't get on. So I said to everybody what's going on. Everyone's saying two phones, I can't get on. So I said to everybody what's going on. Everyone's saying Sandra, sandra, just calm down. I mean what? So I run with my nightie on across the road to the pub to get Wi-Fi to say to everyone what's going on.

Speaker 2:

Everyone had their own reason Instagram and a thing and somebody one of my fellow white men friends named Daddy Fridge. He left his house in Uber and came all the way from Stockholm to the pub. He was to sit down with me. We all had a breakdown. Everybody was like where was I? I went on Facebook, I was on TikTok and people were saying they can't cope. Serious, my brother's wife checks and says they better put this back on and that's not like her to talk like that. Yeah, so I know my kids got me that new phone I'm talking to for my birthday the other day. This one here. I've got 10 Facebook accounts. You know I'm using 4 now for my birthday, the other day, but this one here.

Speaker 2:

I've got 10 Facebook accounts. You know, oh my goodness, I'm using four now, but because I've got different people in 11 years.

Speaker 1:

Sure.

Speaker 2:

I'm all over, but I'm six to one now and this is a TikTok and I am, so you know, when I'm talking I've got two Instagram. When I'm talking to you on here, when I went to get your password, I went on here. Go on, Kev.

Speaker 1:

How do you keep up? Do you know?

Speaker 2:

you're my first podcast.

Speaker 1:

No, well, I must be your favorite podcast as well.

Speaker 2:

You're my first podcast. You were a virgin. Let me act normal. Let me act normal. Go on love that I could chat for hours, you know.

Speaker 1:

So you were a podcast virgin yeah, you're funny.

Speaker 2:

You made me. You made me. You made me not squid, you made me maybe got pimples. I'm more than a virgin babes. Oh, I can't be bothered. No boyfriends, no more, no I said to everyone. I I said a lot of women are like me. Now I got about 60 other women like me, all single. I goes. Everyone said I had it for 14 years, 12 years. I mean, oh, for God's sake. I mean I'm only here about a year or two.

Speaker 1:

I have a friendship group of girls and I call them the golden girls. They're all in their 60s and they're all single and we have the most fun. I could we go out in London and I'm going to invite you next time because you will love it, thank you. What is your biggest regret?

Speaker 2:

None Love that answer? No, no, no, because you know why, kev. I do occasionally sit down here and go down memory lane. Think about how I was born. I was born very well. What I mean? Like my mum spoiled me. I had my first mink fur coat from Rosa at E Street at 15. She spoiled me, but I've had a few jailbirds. I don't regret that either, because I had fun in there. When the officers see me dress up in the morning and go to school, you can go to school. You know to do something. It's Martin, where are you going? Of course I've got things to do, places. I've got people to see.

Speaker 1:

I love that.

Speaker 2:

I don't regret there. I don't regret. No, that's really good. I like what you're saying. Yeah, I have all my four children, even though I have four different men. Two are dead now. I've had four different men. Two are dead now. I've had three husbands and divorced. No, I don't regret nothing. You've lived life, I'm proper. That's why my daughter said listen, you better don't. My daughter's done my funeral for me, the go-go box money, so that's paid, and she's done my insurance. I said, listen, mum, you better just know when to die, because I just need that money, because you go, if you live over a certain time, I'm going to lose the money. You mean what money? The insurance, just in case you keel over.

Speaker 1:

But it was funny as well. What is your favourite childhood memory?

Speaker 2:

Oh, I grew up good, but listen, I grew up as childhood memory. Well, my sister got married. I got a picture of me when I was five going to school. Yeah, because you know why. One of my friends came up, somebody that knew me from when I was in school. She goes, sandra, this is when I was five, six, seven. You haven't changed. I always met people up, I used to go to school. She goes. You always came to school in the morning with bags of sweets to give everyone. My childhood memory was nice, good. My dad died when, because my dad was old when he had me, my mum. I'm a love child. My dad was 65. My mum was 42. I'm going to never come out of Down syndrome. I think the laughing and the funny person of me is that is that, yeah, I had a good childhood. Yeah, proper, I was both. But then again, and then from 14, I went into crime.

Speaker 1:

Well, they were all learning experiences 1977, I had a letter.

Speaker 2:

I was on probation. What did you do?

Speaker 1:

girl.

Speaker 2:

I don't know what happened, but I came out. Well, it's like before Gogglebox came in my life, I'd not so long come out of jail and the other day I was on my live and talking about I do talk about myself a lot. Yeah, hear me. If Gogglebox met me at 50 and I come out of jail three years, why was I in jail at 47? What was I doing, you, damn thief? I must have been shoplifting or doing fraud. I come out of jail for three years. Why was I in jail at 47? What was I doing, you, damn thief? I must have been shoplifting or doing fraud. Oh, I don't know.

Speaker 2:

But I've had a good life Kev you have. Yeah, yeah, Thank God.

Speaker 1:

That brings me to my next question. What's one?

Speaker 2:

thing you wish you knew at the age of 19?. Oh well, I got pregnant. Well, you figured that one out quickly. Oh you know what? I would have known how to keep my knickers on. Get a job, save up some money and maybe I would have had a house now.

Speaker 2:

That's some good advice. That's what I'm learning my children, my grandkids, my first one, 13. I've got 13, 12 and 11. And the rest is two five-year-olds, six-year-olds but like 19, and I just got pregnant at 80. Stick, get a job, get education. That's what I'm telling the kids. No more the drop, no knickers, knickers after knickers.

Speaker 1:

If you had a genie, no, go ahead.

Speaker 2:

I love what you're asking me. I've never done this before. I've never had a podcast. Good, I put it on Facebook. I put it on Facebook, I'm having my first podcast, everyone.

Speaker 1:

Amazing. If you had a genie in your hand and you could be granted three wishes, what would your three wishes be?

Speaker 2:

Go back on Gogglebox, definitely go back on Gogglebox, get a boyfriend. Someone, something. A friend, a friend, huh. What would the third one be? I'm going on a cruise. Have I been on one?

Speaker 1:

Something to do with holiday.

Speaker 2:

A holiday or no? Yeah, guess where I want to live. I really want to live in a caravan.

Speaker 1:

Do you. That's my worst nightmare.

Speaker 2:

But not in the bushes, though I've lived in quite a few of them.

Speaker 1:

I like caravans on a site you would be, the entertainment I would you like being around people, don't you?

Speaker 2:

I do, yeah, yeah, yeah, I love that, if you have a step in a room.
