AND FIANCEE MAKES IT SOUND LIKE THERE'S AN IMMINENT WEDDING SO

NONE OF IT WORKS.

BUT I FEEL LIKE WHEN I WAS TALKING TO OLD PEOPLE I ALWAYS

SAY HUSBANDS BECAUSE IT MAKES THEM FEEL VERY AT EASE.

YOU SAY HUSBAND.

THE ACADEMY AWARD NOMINATIONS, WHAT WAS IT LIKE?

AND SO WE WERE, HAROLD WOKE UP AND SO WE HAD HAROLD AND GRETA

BROUGHT HAROLD IN BED AND WE WERE JUST SORT OF HANGING OUT.

AND NOT LOOKING AT ANYTHING.

>> IN THE WORLD.

>> I SAW FROM ACROSS THE ROOM, I SAW YOUR PHONE KEPT LIGHTING UP,

I THOUGHT WELL HE'S GOT GOOD NEWS AT LEAST.

FELT YOU KNOW, IF THIS BABY -- THAT'S A BABY'S LAUGH.

>> THAT'S WHAT HE KEPT SAYING, BABE, IT'S JUST ABOUT THE BABY'S

LAUGH!

AND THEN -- BUT THEN WE NERVOUSLY TROON OUR PHONES AND

HAD TO -- >> WE DROPPED THE BABY AROUND --

>> THERE WAS A MOMENT WHERE WE HAD TO BE LIKE OKAY NOW WE HAVE

TO, YOU KNOW, WE HAVE TO CHECK.

AND THEN IT WAS THRILLING AND AMAZING.

>> James: HAD YOU TALKED ABOUT WHAT YOU WOULD DO IF ONE

OF YOU SECURED LOTS OF NOMINATIONS AND THE OTHER PERSON

DIDN'T?

>> NO, WE HADN'T DISCUSSED THIS AT ALL.

>> WE HAD NO PLAN.
