Yeah, well I'm just saying, man, if you're looking for a new partner, I'm your man, man.
Think about it.

You thought I'd let you do this alone? Partners? Partners.
There you go, darling.
Hey, Hashtag? You ever think about doing something different? What do you mean? Well, I don't know.

What, like being a florist? You crazy, Bukake.
Maybe.
Yep.
Turn.
No, the other way.
The other way.
The other way.
The other way.
No, that way.
No.
My next guest has inspired and captivated those around him.
In a relatively short period of time, he has had roles as varied and challenging as a sales assistant in River Island, followed by a bit of telesales, before his big break at the IT firm Pipex.
In 1990-99, he was honoured with an HMV store voucher as a leaving gift.
His name, of course, is Simon Martin, and I've been given the rare opportunity to interview him.
Let's go and meet him.
Simon Martin, welcome to I Know Your Name.
Let's start at the beginning.
At just the tender age of 19, you landed your first big break at the well-known sports chain, Foot Locker.
Tell us a little bit about that.
Well, I remember walking into what can only really be described as a trainer store.
I approached the counter and spoke with the manager, who took me into his office and, you know, sat me down.
And I'll never forget the very first thing that he asked me - and that was whether I was looking for full-time or part-time employment.
Now, you can imagine, you know, my mind was racing.
I'm thinking to myself, you know, "Get this right, Simon.
"For God's sake, get this right.
" And so what did you say? I said part-time.
You know, I had to - this was the '90s.
I'd like to quote an extract from your CV, if I may? OK.
"I work well, both individually and as part of a team.
" I mean, where, from whom, did you glean such knowledge? Well, you know, I've been very fortunate throughout my career to have worked with some truly remarkable, remarkable people.
None more so than Liz Stanmore, whom of course you know as head of recruitment at Adecco.
And it was of course Liz who taught me that when writing my CV, to always include my name clearly, in large, bold font, you know? That was Liz, you know? And, of course, you know, Liz went on to become a huge inspiration to you throughout your career.
But with such giddy heights come the inevitable lows.
Yep.
Tell us what happened next to Simon Martin.
Well, look, OK - you gotta understand that around this time, I was 28 and a half years old, earning £22,000 a year - before tax.
You know, silly money.
I mean, that's just unheard of.
Sure.
I was out literally two, three nights a week, hitting all the hotspots - All Bar One, Pitcher & Piano, Slug and Lettuce.
I remember on one occasion turning up to work slightly hung-over, you know? You just you just don't do that.
Yeah, I was out of control.
Out of control.
And it was at that point that I remember something my father taught me, shortly before he passed away Simon Martin, for years you have brought joy and happiness to some people throughout your career.
I for one look forward to following your wonderful, wonderful journey.
Simon Martin, I know your name.
Thank you.
Thank you.
Excuse me, Daniel.
My name's Banksy, and I'm a street artist.
Um stencils, stencils.
It's Wednesday, which is Jill's book club.
So to keep from getting under her feet, I'm going to take my step-son Daniel out with me to do one of my pictures.
I think that's us, Daniel.
Spray cans.
Oh, God, what am I like? "I mo" What is it now, Banksy? Sorry.
Have you seen my spray cans? In the shoe box under the stairs.
Oh, right, yeah.
I'm gonna take Daniel to Hepton Farm to spray a beef burger onto a horse.
Message being - "horse meat scandal".
Come on then, Daniel.
"An explosion in my mouth.
"He has ejaculated all over my face.
" Jump in the front.
Daniel, do you want to hold the guide rope while Daddy hammers in the peggies? Piss off.
OK.
Our adventures offer Daniel and I an opportunity to bond and open up, mano-a-mano.
Daniel, do you want to put your PlayStation away now? I may not be your father, Daniel but I am the man who has regular intercourse with your mother.
Oh, my days.
But do you know, the last time I was in this tent was when me and your mother first got together? We'd only been intimate for a few weeks, so you can imagine what we were like.
It was like a bloody sweat lodge in here, Daniel, honestly.
And your mother used to have this lovely long red hair, right down to the small of her back, and it was that long that I used to wrap it round my hand, several times over, and I'd be clinging on for dear life.
Just like a rodeo star.
I suppose we should get some shut-eye.
Daddy loves you.
You're not my dad.
Wake up, Daniel.
It's time to do our political activism.
Come on, Daniel, wake up.
Wake up.
Fuck's sake! This is my first experience of working with a live canvas, and I have to say, I'm so excited.
Look at her.
There's a lovely white horse.
Hello.
OK, hold this stencil up on her hind legs.
OK.
Look at that, Daniel.
Perfect.
Why don't you get on the horsey, Daniel, and I can take a photo of you next to the beef burger? No.
You're all right, mate.
No? Come on, Daniel, Mummy will love it.
Up you get.
She's all right.
That's it, Daniel.
Nice big smile.
Got the beef burger in.
OK.
Fucking prick! Try and calm him down a bit.
He's just a little bit agitated.
Daniel! Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa! Daniel, come back! Daniel! Come back, Daniel! Somebody help! Daddy's gonna save you! You're not my dad! Prick! Well, Jill's gonna go nanas! She did indeed go absolutely nanas, but I'm happy to say, Daniel escaped unscathed.
There he is.
There's Daniel on the horsey.
He must have covered 90 miles that day.
You ended up in Rickmansworth, didn't you, Daniel? Hey, girl.
There's something I've been meaning to say Oooh .
.
about you, me, and everything we can be together.
Oooh, yeah Listen up.
Yeah.
# Is it the way that you talk? # Is it the way that you smile? # Is it the way that you love me every single night? # I'm addicted to you # Girl, you got me in a spell # So hard to break it # I'm gonna need some help # Oh, help me, darling # Yeah, would it be so wrong # Yeah, would it be so wrong # To stay like this forever? # Cos, baby, there's just one thing I need you to know # You are the best thing # You are the best thing # I can't compare you # To anything I've ever known # Oooh, oh, oh # You are the best thing # You are the best thing # Oooh, oh # I don't deserve you But I pray you'll stay with me.
