Preparation
Zeron: Let's back track a little. Seven days before the shoot (excuse the obvious and unavoidable pun) I was having dinner with the producer, Nic, who informed me that the sperm show will involve me producing copious amounts of semen samples. And he was deliberately vague on all counts of what the show would contain. "You're a Lab Rat! Since when do Lab Rats have a running order of events?" was his only (but strangely logical) defence. "And Zeron, do abstain from sex of any kind a day before the shoot, dude," were his final words to me as we parted.

Dinner the day before helped keep me occupied. The film crew are a great bunch of guys so we all relaxed and laughed and swapped men stories: daring deeds of sexual adventures, be they solo or with partners. As the booze flowed our inhibitions lowered and our tales became more shocking - and louder. At one point a nearby TV celebrity had to cut in. He had listened to our exploits and tried his best to ignore them, but when Mike spoke about being caught naked by his mother-in-law, he really had to draw the line and ask us to be less rowdy - all he wanted was a quiet Sunday evening meal with his wife! But he did say some of our laddish exploits had made their dinner one of the most entertaining for a long time.

Mike: The day before the shoot we went to the pub to meet some of the other guys who would be working on the series. Over several drinks, Allan Pacey, a sperm expert from Sheffield, gave us some facts about men who undertake sex change operations. It has been found that, psychologically, it is better for people who have had a sex change operation to have children who are genetically their own, later in life. So they often leave sperm in storage just in case they change their minds: hence the reason that Allan often comes into contact with sex change patients. While talking to one sex change patient he found why scrotal electrolysis is needed. The scrotum makes up the interior of the patient's vagina, and should all the hair not be removed fur balls would result inside his new female reproductive tract!
