The Rest is Entertainment is presented by Octopus Energy. Now, the moment someone becomes properly famous, they stop traveling as a person, and they start traveling as a situation. And yes, I am talking about the world of entourages.
Richard Osman· Host0:12
It's amazing. Anytime you do a TV show and someone properly famous comes on, it's sort of you, you can just have a spread bet as to how many people they're gonna bring with them.

Richard Osman· Host0:30
So Octopus Energy, you know anytime you ever ring any company, you start from scratch right from the beginning again. With Octopus Energy, they recognize your number, and that goes through to a very, very small team of around 10 people who are there to deal with you, so you'll almost certainly be dealing with someone who you've dealt with before.
