Have you ever seen Inside the Factory?

One of my friends does this as a job (he’s worked for a few of the big supermarket chains as well as other big retailers).

I can’t quite get my head around how he was able to juggle everything - some items had like a two day lead time, but others have four months or something (WC pans from china, for example).

I wonder if GEOFF would be as constantly surprised as GREGG?

Yeah that’s the stuff. And as much as you have electronic scanning, logging and cataloging of stock and everything… how do they know how much of everything there is and where it is at ALL times. Some things, I guess, I’m not meant to know/understand.

When I’m doing nothing, or running, stuff like that, I imagine myself into books that I’ve read. Usually fantasy or sci-fi or something.

It’d obviously be really bad Marty-sue fanfic if I was ever weird enough to write it down or think that anyone else would want to read it, but it passes the time for me.

Nah. Don’t know what that programme is but I reckon it could either cause my brain to melt down or perhaps understanding it all would ruin the mystery and I’d be worse off as a result.

Have a horrible habit of ruminating on killing someone who was threatening my family and then how I would go about disposing of the body.

On a more sane note I often play out interviews where I’m being asked about my contributions to music over the years (I don’t make music).

It’s Gregg Wallace going to various factories and looking at how a lorry full of potatoes becomes a million bags of Golden Wonder cheese and onion or whatever. The numbers and logistics involved are all crazy, and the machines that we’ve invented to help streamline these processes (and how few people are now actually needed to make all this happen).

I’ve been daydreaming about playing football in big stadiums and scoring goals/making nice passes recently, but weirdly, in some kind of charity football match like SoccerAid rather than anything competitive/worth fantasising about

My fictional band’s triumphant debut television performance on Letterman or Fallon, with friends and loved ones in the UK staying up late to stream it.
