Well, Talk About Awkward Timing... by Coco Prada

Bloody hell, there I was playing Costa - your friendly neighborhood laundrette owner with an unhealthy obsession with Jon Richardson's dirty socks - when the whole thing took a right turn!

Picture me, standing there in my finest laundrette uniform (which, let's be honest, had seen better days), desperately trying to convince Jon not to take his washing elsewhere. Meanwhile, the poor bloke's actual life was going through the spin cycle. Talk about life imitating art!

Costa's revenge plot for losing his favorite customer probably wasn't my finest hour. There I was, channeling my inner psycho laundrette owner, chasing Jon around with fabric softener like some deranged cleaning fairy. Bet he wishes all his problems could be solved with a good wash and spin!

The episode's got more layers now than a basket of unfolded sheets. One minute Costa's having a meltdown over losing Jon's custom, the next minute... well, you know how it goes. Life's a bit like a washing machine sometimes - full of unexpected spin cycles.

Still, what a laugh we had filming it. Even if watching it back now feels a bit like finding a red sock in with your white wash - slightly awkward but you've just got to get on with it, haven't you?

Cheers for letting me be part of the mayhem. Costa might not have kept his customer, but at least he'll always have his dignity. (Actually, scratch that last bit - dignity went right out the window somewhere between the begging and the revenge plot!)
