* Dick described what their bottom two number would've been if they had ended up in the bottom *"Looking back, I wish I would have prepared a simpler bottom 2 number. Every week I got changed in case I was in the bottom 2 performance but my act involved changing into a wetsuit and blowing up an inflatable mallet. I never landed in the bottom but every week I was running about to get into the wetsuit, so I am glad I was always prepared but it would have been nice to have some more self-belief so I didn’t need to clamber into a skin tight suit." -* source
