your wife flowers and not include a card.

00:07:53,040 --> 00:07:55,873
Actually, he's not old.
He's 28 and he's got his own yacht.

149
00:07:55,960 --> 00:07:58,394
-Oh. Oh.
-He's quite a catch.

150
00:07:58,480 --> 00:08:01,074
So where you living at the moment?
Have you got your own place?

151
00:08:01,160 --> 00:08:04,072
-Yes, I've got my own place.
-'Cause you were renting before.

152
00:08:04,160 --> 00:08:06,037
That grotty little council place
behind Londis.

153
00:08:06,120 --> 00:08:09,715
-Yeah, I'm still there.
-You're well, though?

154
00:08:09,800 --> 00:08:12,792
-Surprisingly.
-Yeah, well, that's the main thing, yeah.

155
00:08:12,880 --> 00:08:15,792
Even if you've got nothing else,
at least you've got your health, eh?

156
00:08:15,880 --> 00:08:17,871
-At the moment.
-Yeah.

157
00:08:17,960 --> 00:08:20,554
Talking of bad luck.
Did you hear about Barbara?

158
00:08:20,640 --> 00:08:26,317
Trevor's left her for a younger model.
She is devastated, honestly, all alone,

159
00:08:26,400 --> 00:08:29,119
crying herself to sleep every night
in that big house.

160
00:08:29,200 --> 00:08:31,919
She has got her own house, at least,
which is something.

161
00:08:32,000 --> 00:08:33,035
Good for her.

162
00:08:33,120 --> 00:08:34,109
(MOBILE BEEPING)

163
00:08:34,200 --> 00:08:35,997
Oh, that'll be Matty.

164
00:08:37,480 --> 00:08:40,199
Oh. No.

165
00:08:41,160 --> 00:08:42,957
Never mind.

166
00:08:43,800 --> 00:08:47,349
Oh, he's late again.
Alfie's going to be in so much trouble.

167
00:08:47,440 --> 00:08:49,715
Well, I'm not carrying the can for him again.

168
00:08:49,800 --> 00:08:53,839
Well, there's no excuses this time.
Mr Stokes said if he's late one more time,

169
00:08:53,920 --> 00:08:56,354
he's gonna give him the brush off.

170
00:08:57,720 --> 00:09:01,429
Oh, here he is. Alfie, not again.

171
00:09:01,520 --> 00:09:05,035
-Why are you late?
-Because I buried me sister today!

172
00:09:06,160 --> 00:09:07,798
Yep, great. Let's move on. Next scene.

173
00:09:07,880 --> 00:09:10,713
Sorry, I don't want to interfere.
Is that how he's gonna do it?

174
00:09:10,800 --> 00:09:13,189
Because it's meant to be a sad line,
"l buried my sister today."'

175
00:09:13,280 --> 00:09:15,316
He was smiling. It's got to be an emotional...

176
00:09:15,400 --> 00:09:17,994
-Hang on, everyone.
-Sorry, Keith, can we try that again?

177
00:09:18,080 --> 00:09:20,071
You were smiling, mate, it's...

178
00:09:20,160 --> 00:09:22,594
They all sort of think you're a joke
'cause you're always late,

179
00:09:22,680 --> 00:09:24,989
but today you've got a valid reason,
you buried your sister.

180
00:09:25,080 --> 00:09:28,117
It's sort of like a...
Oh, it's like an emotional point in the show.

181
00:09:28,200 --> 00:09:30,316
-Could we do it again?
-Yeah, no worries.

182
00:09:30,400 --> 00:09:33,039
Okay, sorry.

183
00:09:36,120 --> 00:09:40,750
You're smiling again.
You mustn't smile, you're sad. Okay?

184
00:09:40,840 --> 00:09:43,070
You've just been to a funeral.

185
00:09:43,720 --> 00:09:45,472
Okay, in you come.

186
00:09:48,280 --> 00:09:52,068
Alfie, not again. Why are you late?

187
00:09:52,280 --> 00:09:55,955
Because I buried my sister today.

188
00:09:56,280 --> 00:09:57,679
Don't look at the camera.

189
00:09:57,760 --> 00:09:59,751
-You mustn't look at the camera.
-Sorry.

190
00:09:59,840 --> 00:10:00,989
-Okay?
-Yeah.

191
00:10:01,080 --> 00:10:03,036
It sort of breaks the illusion this is real life.

192
00:10:03,120 --> 00:10:04,872
-Right.
-Go again.

193
00:10:06,760 --> 00:10:09,274
Okay, in you come, action.

194
00:10:10,120 --> 00:10:11,872
You're smiling. Sad.

195
00:10:12,240 --> 00:10:16,597
You looked straight at the lens again.
Good, double whammy, and again.

196
00:10:16,680 --> 00:10:18,159
Action.

197
00:10:19,760 --> 00:10:23,469
-Alfie, not again. Why are you late?
-Because l...

198
00:10:23,560 --> 00:10:26,632
We can't see you, Keith,
you've gone too far, okay?

199
00:10:26,720 --> 00:10:29,393
You've got to stay on that mark,
the blue mark down there,

200
00:10:29,480 --> 00:10:32,916
that's for you to stand on
'cause that's where the camera is pointing

201
00:10:33,000 --> 00:10:34,797
and then we can see your face.

202
00:10:34,880 --> 00:10:37,633
So, just to recap, come in,
not smiling 'cause you're sad

203
00:10:37,720 --> 00:10:40,393
'cause you just buried your sister,
don't look at the camera

204
00:10:40,480 --> 00:10:44,029
and stand on that mark
so we can see you on the telly.

205
00:10:44,120 --> 00:10:45,473
Okay?

206
00:10:45,720 --> 00:10:48,029
-There's a lot to remember, isn't there?
-There is a lot to remember.

207
00:10:48,120 --> 00:10:52,989
There is a lot to remember.
It's called acting. Okay, okay, action.

208
00:10:54,040 --> 00:10:55,393
Sad!

209
00:10:56,040 --> 00:10:59,999
Too far, left a bit, don't look at me!
Okay, ask him the question.

210
00:11:00,080 --> 00:11:02,548
-Why are you late?
-Because my sister buried me today.

211
00:11:02,640 --> 00:11:05,359
Oh, for fuck's sake!
Why would your sister bury you?

212
00:11:05,440 --> 00:11:09,149
-That'd be mental!
-Oh, sorry, I get so confused.

213
00:11:09,800 --> 00:11:12,473
-The thing is my sister's not dead.
-What?

214
00:11:12,600 --> 00:11:16,832
I told them when I started,
me sister, she's not dead.

215
00:11:17,440 --> 00:11:20,591
-Do you mean in real life?
-Yeah.

216
00:11:22,400 --> 00:11:24,630
Presumably you don't work in a factory
in real life?

217
00:11:24,720 --> 00:11:26,676
-No.
-And your name's not Alfie.

218
00:11:26,760 --> 00:11:28,432
Yeah, you see, that's another thing.

219
00:11:28,520 --> 00:11:32,035
Sometimes I don't know
who's talking to who.

220
00:11:34,440 --> 00:11:37,238
Would you rather be called Keith in this?

221
00:11:37,320 --> 00:11:38,958
It would help.

222
00:11:40,920 --> 00:11:43,798
Okay, everyone, we're changing
Keith's character name from Alfie to Keith.

223
00:11:43,880 --> 00:11:46,110
Okay? Good. Let's go again.

224
00:11:47,880 --> 00:11:51,509
This time, then. Okay, in you come, Keith.

225
00:11:51,600 --> 00:11:54,239
-Keith me or Keith the character?
-Same person!

226
00:11:54,320 --> 00:11:57,357
Keith... Okay,
Keith you and Keith the character,

227
00:11:57,440 --> 00:12:00,557
all-in-one Keith, okay, in you come. Action!

228
00:12:02,160 --> 00:12:04,390
-The door's stuck.
-That's lunch!

229
00:12:07,520 --> 00:12:11,069
Okay. No, okay, bye. Bye.

230
00:12:11,960 --> 00:12:15,111
Yeah, just a call to do a small part in a film,
but I just had to let them down,

231
00:12:15,200 --> 00:12:17,031
-I'm too busy.
-Aw.

232
00:12:17,120 --> 00:12:19,918
-Oh, I wonder if they'd want you.
-No, I wouldn't have thought so.

233
00:12:20,000 --> 00:12:22,070
-No, hang on, let me give them a call.
-No, no.

234
00:12:22,160 --> 00:12:24,754
Try and help my bloody mates.
You need the help.

235
00:12:24,840 --> 00:12:27,035
-But I'm not even a proper actress.
-Hang on.

236
00:12:27,120 --> 00:12:31,398
Hiya, Pauline. Listen, about that job,
I've got a friend who's available.

237
00:12:31,480 --> 00:12:36,270
Does she have to be good looking?
Does she? Oh.

238
00:12:37,320 --> 00:12:40,392
Oh, I don't know, late 30s, early 40s.

239
00:12:40,480 --> 00:12:42,994
-I'd say mousy.
-Blonde.

240
00:12:43,080 --> 00:12:47,198
But lovely girl, great personality,
desperate for anything.

241
00:12:48,920 --> 00:12:53,118
No. All right, well, I tried. Okay, cheers.

242
00:12:53,600 --> 00:12:55,238
Oh, sorry about that.

243
00:12:55,320 --> 00:12:58,357
-It's not your lucky day.
-No.

244
00:13:01,240 --> 00:13:02,832
-You okay?
-Yeah.

245
00:13:06,080 --> 00:13:08,071
MAN: Come on, up you go.

246
00:13:14,400 --> 00:13:15,958
-All right?
-Yeah.

247
00:13:19,280 --> 00:13:21,475
I'm back again.

248
00:13:22,400 --> 00:13:25,710
Fourteen years I did here at the BBC.

249
00:13:25,800 --> 00:13:30,078
Swap Shop, Cheggers Plays Pop, all sorts.

250
00:13:32,120 --> 00:13:34,350
Still run by Jews and queers, is it?

251
00:13:34,440 --> 00:13:36,829
-It's what?
-This place.

252
00:13:37,560 --> 00:13:39,994
Still run by your Jews and queers?

253
00:13:43,000 --> 00:13:47,039
I think there are some Jewish people
and some gay people, yeah.

254
00:13:47,800 --> 00:13:49,438
Gay!

255
00:13:49,520 --> 00:13:52,876
Yeah, I forgot,
you're not meant to say "queer", are you?

256
00:13:52,960 --> 00:13:55,520
Suggests something abnormal.

257
00:13:56,560 --> 00:14:00,758
What could be more normal
than shoving your cock up a bloke's arse?

258
00:14:02,120 --> 00:14:06,159
And put it this way,
if God had wanted a cock up an arse,

259
00:14:06,240 --> 00:14:08,629
he wouldn't have given us minges.

260
00:14:10,040 --> 00:14:11,792
Men have knobs,

261
00:14:12,840 --> 00:14:14,717
women have fannies.

262
00:14:15,600 --> 00:14:17,795
Pop knob in fanny,

263
00:14:18,800 --> 00:14:20,392
not up the arse.

264
00:14:22,160 --> 00:14:25,118
Good. I should be making notes.

265
00:14:26,000 --> 00:14:29,709
-You what?
-Nothing. It's... It's all good advice.

266
00:14:43,240 --> 00:14:45,231
-Hi.
-Hello again.

267
00:14:45,320 --> 00:14:48,198
-What are you reading?
-Oh, just Hello!

268
00:14:48,280 --> 00:14:49,918
Oh, yeah, heat.

269
00:14:53,720 --> 00:14:56,553
-Oh, no, I don't believe it.
-What is it?

270
00:14:56,640 --> 00:14:58,915
Just Top 5 Sexiest Film Stars,
for God's sake.

271
00:14:59,000 --> 00:15:01,070
-Are you in it?
-Number one.

272
00:15:02,440 --> 00:15:04,908
-Stupid. What do they mean, these lists?
-Nothing really.

273
00:15:05,000 --> 00:15:07,753
Don't slag them off. It's their opinion. Just...

274
00:15:07,840 --> 00:15:11,469
Oh, no. Look at this woman magazine.

275
00:15:11,960 --> 00:15:14,428
"I'm having an affair
with my brother-in-law's ghost"?

276
00:15:14,520 --> 00:15:18,274
No, that. Women's Top Ten Fantasy Snogs.
Number one again.

277
00:15:18,360 --> 00:15:20,476
What's that thing about the ghost?

278
00:15:20,560 --> 00:15:22,790
"My, um... My husband's brother's ghost
visits me at night

279
00:15:22,880 --> 00:15:26,793
-"and I think I'm falling in love with him."'
-Do they have sex?

280
00:15:28,160 --> 00:15:30,116
Well, it doesn't say.
But it doesn't matter, does it?

281
00:15:30,200 --> 00:15:32,714
Look, we were looking at
the Number One Fantasy Snog For Women.

282
00:15:32,800 --> 00:15:34,836
Number one, Orlando Bloom.

283
00:15:35,360 --> 00:15:38,033
Oh, better not show this to Johnny Depp.
He's only number four.

284
00:15:38,120 --> 00:15:40,315
Really? He'd be my number one.

285
00:15:40,400 --> 00:15:43,949
Well, you'd be wrong, wouldn't you?
I'm number one, there's the proof.

286
00:15:44,040 --> 00:15:45,837
It was the same on the set of
Pirates of the Caribbean.

287
00:15:45,920 --> 00:15:49,356
Me and Keira Knightley do a kissing scene,
I do a brilliant take, everyone claps,

288
00:15:49,440 --> 00:15:51,749
the director goes, "That was amazing."'

289
00:15:51,840 --> 00:15:54,229
Keira goes,
"Oh, can we just do that kissing bit again?"

290
00:15:54,320 --> 00:15:56,993
Well, I know what she's up to.

291
00:15:57,080 --> 00:15:59,275
And I tease her, and I go,
"lf you wanna kiss somebody,

292
00:15:59,360 --> 00:16:00,793
"why don't you kiss Johnny Depp?"

293
00:16:00,880 --> 00:16:04,839
She goes, "Don't make me fucking sick.
I'm gonna vomit if you carry on like that."'

294
00:16:04,920 --> 00:16:06,478
Why do you keep talking
about Johnny Depp?

295
00:16:06,560 --> 00:16:09,074
I don't keep talking about him.
I never talk about him, he's boring.

296
00:16:09,160 --> 00:16:11,276
He's a prat. Where I'm from,
he wouldn't last five minutes.

297
00:16:11,360 --> 00:16:13,237
-He'd get a smack straightaway.
-Where are you from?

298
00:16:13,320 --> 00:16:16,198
-Haply-on-the-Wold, near Royal Windsor.
-Oh.

299
00:16:16,600 --> 00:16:19,398
But they're all subjective, though,
those lists, though, aren't they?

300
00:16:19,480 --> 00:16:22,119
Well, no. Obviously,
I am objectively really good-looking.

301
00:16:22,200 --> 00:16:23,952
But it's not objective, is it?

302
00:16:24,040 --> 00:16:27,476
Personally, I think you're a wee bit...

303
00:16:28,320 --> 00:16:30,356
What's that? You winding me up?

304
00:16:30,440 --> 00:16:32,908
-Come out for a drink later.
-I can't, I'm meeting my friend.

305
00:16:33,000 --> 00:16:34,752
Come out for a coffee with me,
you know. Come on.

306
00:16:34,840 --> 00:16:37,308
Just get to know me,
get to know the normal me,

307
00:16:37,400 --> 00:16:40,073
take a better look and, you know,
see the attractiveness.

308
00:16:40,160 --> 00:16:42,230
But I don't think you are.

309
00:16:44,000 --> 00:16:45,353
Liar.

310
00:16:55,680 --> 00:16:57,875
-Try them on.
-Bit wacky, aren't they?

311
00:16:57,960 --> 00:17:00,155
Big glasses are funny.

312
00:17:00,240 --> 00:17:03,277
-The real Ray didn't even wear glasses.
-Put them on.

313
00:17:06,040 --> 00:17:08,952
-That's funny. Do the catchphrase.
-It's not a catchphrase.

314
00:17:09,040 --> 00:17:11,838
-It's something he actually used to say.
-Do it.

315
00:17:11,920 --> 00:17:14,957
Are you having a laugh?
Is he having a laugh?

316
00:17:15,960 --> 00:17:19,077
-Now the wig.
-What about that one?

317
00:17:19,160 --> 00:17:22,197
-It looks ridiculous.
-That looks funny.

318
00:17:22,280 --> 00:17:24,589
-He didn't even have curly hair.
-Curly is funny.

319
00:17:24,680 --> 00:17:28,150
-What do you mean, curly is funny?
-Curly hair is funny.

320
00:17:28,280 --> 00:17:30,475
Harpo Marx, Leo Sayer.

321
00:17:30,560 --> 00:17:33,028
I can name you loads of people
with curly hair that aren't funny.

322
00:17:33,120 --> 00:17:36,351
Starsky from Starsky and Hutch,
Jim Morrison.

323
00:17:36,440 --> 00:17:38,795
-Blacks.
-Don't say blacks.

324
00:17:38,880 --> 00:17:42,031
-What shall I say?
-Say black people.

325
00:17:42,280 --> 00:17:46,353
-Okay, black people aren't funny.
-Black people are funny, Keith.

326
00:17:46,440 --> 00:17:47,839
Name one black person that's funny.

327
00:17:47,920 --> 00:17:50,639
I can name you loads of black people
that are funny. Dave Chappelle,

328
00:17:50,720 --> 00:17:53,188
-Chris Rock, Eddie Murphy.
-English.

329
00:17:54,880 --> 00:17:57,917
Don't change the rules half way through.

330
00:17:58,000 --> 00:18:01,072
There are loads of funny
English black people, too.

331
00:18:01,200 --> 00:18:02,315
Who?

332
00:18:03,560 --> 00:18:04,754
Um...

333
00:18:04,840 --> 00:18:07,912
Um...

334
00:18:19,320 --> 00:18:21,754
MAN OVER RADIO: Paul on two, Paul on two.

335
00:18:26,360 --> 00:18:28,715
-Good news.
-Oh, more good news. Excellent.

336
00:18:28,800 --> 00:18:32,110
Right, Eddie Osbourne, electrician.

337
00:18:32,360 --> 00:18:35,193
He split up with his wife a while ago
and he's back on the market.

338
00:18:35,280 --> 00:18:37,555
-Lovely guy, just your type.
-Really?

339
00:18:37,640 --> 00:18:40,518
Sweet guy. He's a lovely guy. Interested?

340
00:18:41,360 --> 00:18:44,989
-Yeah.
-Great. Eddie?

341
00:18:45,360 --> 00:18:46,679
Yo!

342
00:18:48,760 --> 00:18:50,113
This is her.

343
00:18:50,200 --> 00:18:51,838
(EXHALING)

344
00:18:53,880 --> 00:18:57,395
-No? Oh, never mind.
-Not bothered.

345
00:18:58,120 --> 00:19:00,839
I just don't know where you're going wrong.

346
00:19:01,880 --> 00:19:05,953
-Right. Kiss me. One kiss, come on.
-No.

347
00:19:06,040 --> 00:19:08,600
One kiss, just let me show you how I do it.
No tongues if you don't want.

348
00:19:08,680 --> 00:19:11,069
Right. If it's gonna shut you up.

349
00:19:17,920 --> 00:19:19,035
(BLOOM SIGHS)

350
00:19:19,120 --> 00:19:22,032
-Well?
-Not really my cup of tea.

351
00:19:32,960 --> 00:19:34,598
Sorry about that.

352
00:19:39,680 --> 00:19:43,275
You're in this club, this vision walks up.

353
00:19:43,880 --> 00:19:46,474
She says, "Hi, handsome,
wanna buy me a drink?"

354
00:19:46,560 --> 00:19:48,994
-What do you say?
-I say, "I'm not made of money."'

355
00:19:49,080 --> 00:19:50,877
Oh, you're never
gonna get a woman like that.

356
00:19:50,960 --> 00:19:53,349
No, I don't want a woman like that.

357
00:19:53,440 --> 00:19:56,591
Go on, be nice to her, caress her hair.

358
00:19:58,520 --> 00:20:00,795
No, don't pat her, she's not a dog.

359
00:20:00,880 --> 00:20:03,440
She must be a dog
if she's going out with him. Oh!

360
00:20:03,520 --> 00:20:05,033
Oh, Mr Stokes.

361
00:20:06,160 --> 00:20:08,116
I'm sorry, um...

362
00:20:13,840 --> 00:20:16,752
-Maybe waggle the glasses?
-I'm not sure about the glasses.

363
00:20:16,840 --> 00:20:18,876
Oh, you've got to have the glasses,
it's hysterical.

364
00:20:18,960 --> 00:20:21,315
-I don't think so.
-It's definitely funnier with the glasses.

365
00:20:21,400 --> 00:20:23,834
-Oh, yeah, it is, I agree.
-There's a surprise.

366
00:20:23,920 --> 00:20:27,310
Well, I'm sorry that my presence here
as head of comedy irritates you,

367
00:20:27,400 --> 00:20:29,038
but I've been in this business
a lot longer than you,

368
00:20:29,120 --> 00:20:31,998
and my opinion will be heard
because I'm the man with the money.

369
00:20:32,080 --> 00:20:33,832
-It's not your money, though, is it?
-No,

370
00:20:33,920 --> 00:20:36,388
but I'm entrusted to make sure
that it's spent correctly.

371
00:20:36,480 --> 00:20:39,517
Oh, we'll make sure it's spent correctly,
which is apparently on funny glasses.

372
00:20:39,600 --> 00:20:40,828
I'll just take five, right?

373
00:20:40,920 --> 00:20:42,592
-Yes.
-Yeah, all right.

374
00:20:46,400 --> 00:20:49,437
-Oh, do you mind if I take these for later on?
-No.

375
00:20:49,520 --> 00:20:51,988
Can I just say that I know
what you're going through?

376
00:20:52,080 --> 00:20:55,709
My character on East Enders, he started out
as an interesting three-dimensional person,

377
00:20:55,800 --> 00:20:58,030
but then over the years the writers
turned him into a joke,

378
00:20:58,120 --> 00:21:01,192
and that's why I walked away, you know,
it wasn't what I wanted to do.

379
00:21:01,280 --> 00:21:04,431
And I know some people
look at me now and say I was a fool

380
00:21:04,520 --> 00:21:08,672
but I know that I walked away
with my integrity and my pride intact.

381
00:21:08,760 --> 00:21:12,150
I just think you've gotta do
what you think is right.

382
00:21:17,440 --> 00:21:19,590
-lain, can I have a word?
-Yeah, what is it?

383
00:21:19,680 --> 00:21:23,719
This isn't the comedy I set out to make,
okay? In fact, I think it's awful.

384
00:21:23,800 --> 00:21:26,234
Yeah, well, shall we not do this here,
shall we go up to my office...

385
00:21:26,320 --> 00:21:28,834
No, I don't care who hears
what I've got to say

386
00:21:28,920 --> 00:21:32,196
because I'm at that point now.
Everyone's interfered, it's embarrassing.

387
00:21:32,280 --> 00:21:33,952
I don't want to get on television
for the sake of it.

388
00:21:34,040 --> 00:21:37,555
I don't want to be famous for the sake of it.
I want to do something that I'm proud of.

389
00:21:37,640 --> 00:21:41,838
And I won't be proud
of shouting out catchphrases

390
00:21:41,920 --> 00:21:43,512
in a stupid wig and funny glasses.

391
00:21:43,600 --> 00:21:46,956
I wanna do what I wanna do, otherwise
I'll hate myself for the rest of my life.

392
00:21:47,040 --> 00:21:49,076
And I tell you what, a case in point.

393
00:21:49,160 --> 00:21:52,914
Shaun, on East Enders, they started to turn
his character into a joke

394
00:21:53,000 --> 00:21:57,118
and he walked away at the top of his game.
That's called integrity.

395
00:21:57,200 --> 00:22:01,796
Okay, it doesn't matter what happens
to him now 'cause he's got his dignity.

396
00:22:25,480 --> 00:22:27,391
-Shall l...
-Leave it.

397
00:22:32,280 --> 00:22:36,478
So basically, I'm not gonna prostitute
myself any more, or my work, okay?

398
00:22:36,560 --> 00:22:40,235
I'm just sick of people coming along,
telling me how they think it should be done

399
00:22:40,320 --> 00:22:42,151
and me just having to bend over
and take it up the arse.

400
00:22:42,240 --> 00:22:46,518
Ah! Oh, sorry, can we just say no disrespect
to either of you as gays?

401
00:22:46,600 --> 00:22:49,034
You know, we don't know
if you're givers or receivers,

402
00:22:49,120 --> 00:22:50,678
very difficult to tell just from looking at you.

403
00:22:50,760 --> 00:22:52,637
Although if I was putting money on it,
I'd probably go...

404
00:22:52,720 --> 00:22:54,199
We don't need to put money on it.

405
00:22:54,280 --> 00:22:55,872
(CLEARING THROAT)

406
00:23:01,760 --> 00:23:04,274
You've heard what I've got to say.

407
00:23:04,360 --> 00:23:07,352
Right, well, thank you
for telling us how you feel.

408
00:23:09,560 --> 00:23:12,393
So here's how I see things going forward.

409
00:23:12,480 --> 00:23:15,392
You can either carry on and record
this show as we've already planned,

410
00:23:15,480 --> 00:23:18,790
or you can pull the plug,
waste everybody's time and hard work,

411
00:23:18,880 --> 00:23:21,394
waste the thousands of pounds
we've already spent so far,

412
00:23:21,480 --> 00:23:24,631
burn all your bridges with the BBC
and you can go back to being an extra

413
00:23:24,720 --> 00:23:27,871
and then you can work your way
back up again from nothing.

414
00:23:27,960 --> 00:23:29,871
What do you want to do?

415
00:23:40,360 --> 00:23:41,952
-Well...
-What do you want to do?

416
00:23:42,040 --> 00:23:43,553
Sitcom.

417
00:23:43,640 --> 00:23:47,474
This can be good.
That's what I've been trying to say.

418
00:23:47,560 --> 00:23:51,235
This... Finish this off, 'cause it can...

419
00:23:51,320 --> 00:23:55,029
I don't wanna let people down. I wanna
get on with this. I wanna get this on the telly.

420
00:23:55,120 --> 00:23:57,793
And then in the future, maybe look
at doing it the way I wanted to do it.

421
00:23:57,880 --> 00:24:00,110
-Yeah, or not.
-Or not, see how it goes.

422
00:24:00,200 --> 00:24:02,156
That's all I wanna...

423
00:24:04,040 --> 00:24:06,190
-Right. Yeah.
-Yeah?

424
00:24:07,080 --> 00:24:08,513
-Okay.
-Good.

425
00:24:10,000 --> 00:24:10,989
-Andy?
-Yeah?

426
00:24:11,080 --> 00:24:13,036
-Don't forget your...
-Glasses.

427
00:24:13,840 --> 00:24:15,432
Right.

428
00:24:29,560 --> 00:24:31,118
-Hi.
-Cutting it a bit fine, aren't you?

429
00:24:31,200 --> 00:24:32,918
I know, sorry I'm late.

430
00:24:33,000 --> 00:24:34,877
-Everything all right?
-Yeah.

431
00:24:34,960 --> 00:24:36,951
-No first-night nerves?
-No, no, no.

432
00:24:37,040 --> 00:24:40,555
I actually had to kick a bit of arse earlier
'cause I was getting sick of all this,

433
00:24:40,640 --> 00:24:42,232
-"Is it a good comedy? Is it a bad comedy?"
-Yeah.

434
00:24:42,320 --> 00:24:44,880
I just went, "Look, it's a good comedy
if it pleases people.

435
00:24:44,960 --> 00:24:46,598
"Can we get on with it?"
Do you know what I mean?

436
00:24:46,680 --> 00:24:48,432
I think comedy should be as broad
as possible,

437
00:24:48,520 --> 00:24:50,988
so you take everyone in.
I want the whole family to like this.

438
00:24:51,080 --> 00:24:53,150
-I want four-year-olds to like this.
-They will.

439
00:24:53,240 --> 00:24:56,550
Do you know what I mean? And if it
doesn't stand the test of time, so what?

440
00:24:56,640 --> 00:25:01,589
Do something else, but, you know,
bring as much joy into the world as you can.

441
00:25:01,680 --> 00:25:05,036
-That's all.
-Yeah, well, as long as you're happy.

442
00:25:05,120 --> 00:25:08,317
I'm happy if people are happy.

443
00:25:10,760 --> 00:25:12,716
-Are you definitely gonna do this? Yeah?
-Yeah.

444
00:25:12,800 --> 00:25:15,792
-You're definitely gonna go on and...
-Yes.

445
00:25:15,880 --> 00:25:16,915
Yeah.

446
00:25:17,000 --> 00:25:19,195
-Forget it, Barry, he's gonna do it, mate.
-Fuck.

447
00:25:19,280 --> 00:25:21,919
I know. I'm as annoyed as you are, man.

448
00:25:30,680 --> 00:25:35,549
Bloody hell, Rita, you look terrible.
Life as a single mum getting to you?

449
00:25:35,640 --> 00:25:39,918
I was up till 2:00 am
doing me daughter's science homework.

450
00:25:40,000 --> 00:25:43,470
Did you know that Alexander Fleming
discovered penicillin

451
00:25:43,560 --> 00:25:46,120
when he found mould
on some old bread he'd left out?

452
00:25:46,240 --> 00:25:50,233
Oh, he should look under Gobbler's bed,
he'd find a new species.

453
00:25:51,280 --> 00:25:54,716
He'd find a new species
if he looked in Gobbler's bed.

454
00:25:56,280 --> 00:26:00,319
-I don't get it.
-You don't get it?

455
00:26:00,400 --> 00:26:04,791
I've been without a man so long,
I think I'd say yes if Ray asked me out.

456
00:26:04,880 --> 00:26:09,715
-My ears are burning.
-Maybe I can last a few more years.

457
00:26:10,840 --> 00:26:14,150
Morning, campers.
Well, congratulations are in order.

458
00:26:14,240 --> 00:26:16,800
You all successfully clocked in
on time this morning,

459
00:26:16,880 --> 00:26:19,474
you just forgot to start bloody work!

460
00:26:20,680 --> 00:26:24,753
Steady on, Mr Stokes,
we've been comforting Rita.

461
00:26:24,840 --> 00:26:28,196
She's been up all night trying to get
her head round some fella called Alexander.

462
00:26:28,280 --> 00:26:30,999
Oh, lucky beggar.

463
00:26:31,080 --> 00:26:34,311
-No one who works here I hope.
-No, he's dead.

464
00:26:34,760 --> 00:26:37,149
You cooked for him as well? He he!

465
00:26:38,400 --> 00:26:41,312
Oh, Mr Stokes, will you be nice to her?

466
00:26:41,400 --> 00:26:42,833
(MUMBLING)

467
00:26:42,920 --> 00:26:46,754
Well, Rita, I know you've had your problems,
but I want you to know this.

468
00:26:46,840 --> 00:26:51,231
-The door to my office is always open.
-Thank you, Mr Stokes.

469
00:26:51,320 --> 00:26:55,552
Yeah, I think it's the bloody hinges.
Get off your arse and fix it, will you?

470
00:26:56,400 --> 00:27:00,154
-I haven't got any tools.
-You're joking? You've got two right here.

471
00:27:00,240 --> 00:27:02,435
Gobbler's a complete spanner.

472
00:27:03,080 --> 00:27:05,071
I don't get it.

473
00:27:05,160 --> 00:27:09,438
What Mr Stokes has cleverly done,
with recourse to a pun,

474
00:27:09,520 --> 00:27:13,069
is take Rita's usage of the word "tool",

475
00:27:13,160 --> 00:27:17,073
a device that performs manual
or mechanical work,

476
00:27:17,160 --> 00:27:22,712
and transpose its meaning
into the vulgar, slang definition of "tool",

477
00:27:22,800 --> 00:27:25,792
meaning the male reproductive appendage.

478
00:27:27,160 --> 00:27:30,118
Are you having a laugh?
Is he having a laugh?

479
00:27:30,200 --> 00:27:31,918
(AUDIENCE LAUGHING)

480
00:27:34,200 --> 00:27:36,031
You're having a laugh!

481
00:27:36,120 --> 00:27:37,838
(AUDIENCE LAUGHING)

482
00:27:40,040 --> 00:27:42,634
He is having a laugh.

483
00:27:42,760 --> 00:27:44,478
(AUDIENCE LAUGHING)

484
00:27:55,480 --> 00:27:58,995
Ooh. You're having a laugh.

485
00:28:04,040 --> 00:28:06,679
RITA: Oh, I got a letter back
from the dating agency.

486
00:28:06,760 --> 00:28:09,957
-Yeah, this guy replied, sent me a picture.
-My word.

487
00:28:10,040 --> 00:28:12,315
RITA: Before you ask,
it was taken on his allotment,

488
00:28:12,400 --> 00:28:14,789
and, yes, he did win first prize.
