CheapShow - Ep 92: Without A Cluedo

Episode Date: September 7, 2018

There has been a murder at Tudor Mansion! Who was it? Where was the crime committed and with what object? If that all sounds familiar, then that's because it's Cluedo, innit? In this latest episode of... CheapShow, Gannon gets another Golden Game to add to his collection, and this isn't any old Cluedo! No. This is Cluedo SFX!! Which means it's fancy. Who will win? The answer maybe slightly anti-climatic. Also, it went on for AGES, so be prepared for a few artistic edits! Elsewhere in this economy comedy podcast, Eli brings you a disco hit from the DEVIL, we hear a range of "music" from 80s DJ Steve Wright and dive headfirst into a long anticipated "Off Brand/Brand Off". Topic: Biscuits. It's pretty hardcore round here, mate! So relax, unwind and enjoy the sounds of 2 middle aged men shouting at each other. You deserve it.

Should we just start the fucking jingle now?
Starting point is 00:05:57 Off-brand, brand-off, brand-off, on-brand, off-brand. And then we've got Ganon's Golden Games, and it's a special today. Ooh. Absolute bargain. And I can't believe it. Now, talking of games, Paul, have we already mentioned that I saw the Dune game for... Yes, we have already mentioned that. No, we haven't.
Starting point is 00:06:11 We talked about it, but not on the pod. I think I'm going to get it. Yeah, but you said it's kind of like a roll dice game? I didn't have a look at it because it was just in the window of the shop. I just saw the price. Okay, Google. Dune board game. No, not do you board game.
Starting point is 00:06:28 Do you board game? Do I board game? Do I? I do. Do you do it? I do board game. Do you board game? I do. I do the board game. That would be a good ad, wouldn't it? Do you board game? Yes, I do do board game. I do do board game. What board game do you do? I do all of them.
Starting point is 00:06:44 I do. Oh, do, do, do, do, do, do. I like do board games. I do do board games. What board game do you do? I do all of them. I do. Oh, do, do, do, do, do, do. I like do. You can't do late night ones. You can't do them. I do, do, do, do. Oh, fucking hell. What? It's worth a lot.
Starting point is 00:06:57 It looks quite elaborate. Look. Yeah. It looks like... There's bits of spice there. Is it like Risk or something? Spice Majora. What is it? Oh, God. It's complicated of spice there. Is it like Risk or something? Spice Majora. What is it?
Starting point is 00:07:05 Oh, God, it's complicated. Look at that fucking picture. Everyone's got different plates and shit. Flippin' heck. How much was that? A tenner. It doesn't seem that bad a price now, does it? No.
Starting point is 00:07:16 Dune Board Game. Boardgamegeek.com. I always go there for my board game facts. Does it have a review? It sometimes does, sometimes doesn't. Sometimes it has an audience thing. It's not particularly well kept. Oh, hang on. Does it have a review? It sometimes does, sometimes doesn't, sometimes has like an audience thing. It's, you know, not particularly well kept. Oh, hang on.
Starting point is 00:07:28 This looks like a different thing. Or maybe the one we saw has been updated. That looks a bit more modern than the one I've seen. 7.6, this has been given overall by rating. Is that good? Yeah. I mean, I think it's out of 10. Dice game.
Starting point is 00:07:40 But looking at this version of it, this looks like the classic edition. Let's see. Let's have a little look at that. There you go. So it's fundamentally the same. Yeah, the cover was different of the one I saw.
Starting point is 00:07:51 It was blue. The cover was blue. Interesting. It had a blue thing. And also it wasn't like that sort of portrait mode, isn't it? Yeah, spice.
Starting point is 00:07:59 It's a weird portrait cover. Yeah. Oh, that's strange. And my one was landscape. So the images we just saw were probably from the modern version of this one that we're looking at now. Yeah. And, that's straightforward. My one was Landscape. So the images we just saw were probably from the modern version of this one that we're looking at now. And it looks like a kind of Risk-type game.
Starting point is 00:08:10 I've got to go back a few images now and go and look at the description. Have you read Dune? No. Well, it is about a political power struggle. So that could basically turn into a game quite well, couldn't it? Set thousands of years in the future, Dune is a board game based on the Frank Herbert novels about an arid planet mobiles novels about an arid planet
Starting point is 00:08:29 human space empire political blah blah blah each player takes the role of one of the faction attempting to control dune they have special powers each turns can take over the map deadly storms sandworms can affect play military fractions blah blah blah yeah it looks like a kind of strategic board game probably very good but i get frightened by those they're too daunting a game to play you know what i mean it's like it's a bit of an undertaking as a fucking phone book okay and so i don't know we've got the opposite of that i think we might have one of the most simplistic games and yet kind of actually still within the mystery genre of it. I'll just spoil it
Starting point is 00:09:06 with doing Cluedo. Okay. Cluedo SFX. Ooh. What are the SFX? Someone going, I'm Mr. Plum. It's got a special board
Starting point is 00:09:13 where it knows where you're going around the board. Does it have the voices of the various characters? It does. It has voice work and it has like
Starting point is 00:09:18 a little 3D manor. I'm looking forward to it. And you only get four characters but they have a special thing on. When you go around the board,
Starting point is 00:09:24 it knows where you are so there's sound effects. I'm in the swimming pool. Splosh. get four characters, but they have a special thing on. When you go around the board, it knows where you are, so the sound effects. I'm in the swimming pool. Splosh and stuff like that. Ah. So it's interesting. We'll get to that later. That's the setup for the show today.
Starting point is 00:09:32 Let's crack on. Okay, then. You know what it's time for. Ooh. It's Off Brand Brand. How did it go? Off Brand Brand. No, you had to go diddle-iddle.
Starting point is 00:09:43 Diddle-iddle-iddle. Right, okay, here we go. Off Brand Brand Off. Off Brand Brand Off. Off Brand Brand Off. Off Brand Brand Off. Off Brand Brand Off. Off Brand Brand Off.
Starting point is 00:09:56 Off Brand Brand Off. Off Brand Brand Off. Off Brand Brand Off. Ah, that's enough. It's brought to you by Richard Brand Off. Richard Brand Off. Off, off, off. Off, off, off Off, off, off
Starting point is 00:10:05 Yes, it's Off Brand Brandoff We've not done it in a while And it's brought to you by Richard Brandoff Maybe he might turn up later He's a busy man Is he a busy man? I know, I know I was talking to his agent
Starting point is 00:10:18 His agent Yeah Old Slippery Bill Leslie Slippery Bill Wilson Yeah And Slippery Bill said Leslie Slippery Bill Wilson Yeah Yeah And Slippery Bill Said to me
Starting point is 00:10:27 In that voice of his He said You know I can't look at you When you do that Because it's really upsetting So I'm just going to Close my eyes
Starting point is 00:10:36 And you can carry on He said Mr Brandoff's a very Very busy man And he might not be able To turn up Even though he presents it. It doesn't mean he can do it, okay?
Starting point is 00:10:47 I'm wearing earphones and that voice in my ear is like, it's like you're licking my ear. Now, if you haven't heard this section before, it is, off-brand Brandoff, this is the section of the show, and it is quite serious underneath it all. Yes, it is. It's an investigation into consumer ethics. Yes. This is the section where I, blindfolded, must decide
Starting point is 00:11:12 if I can distinguish between the branded product and the off-brand product hawked mercilessly in the budget supermarkets of the land. I couldn't have put it simpler myself and literally couldn't what the comestible category of food product will i be blind
Starting point is 00:11:33 testing tonight on off-brand brand off ladies and gentlemen we have a selection of biscuits or if you're american cookies it's biscuits which means which comes to the french for twice cooked and that's why it's called biscuit. And it's all crunchy, isn't it? So why do they don't... It's all crispy. In America, their biscuits aren't twice cooked,
Starting point is 00:11:50 so why do they call them biscuits? Fucking idiots. I think they might be. Oh. Oh, sorry, America. It's just what the word came from. Oh, right. Well, anyway,
Starting point is 00:11:58 our biscuits are better. I'm doing biscuits. Well, our biscuits... They're just what we call scones, isn't it? What they call biscuits. No. It's like a... Cookies. No. Look, you't it? What they call biscuits No, they're cookies
Starting point is 00:12:05 No Look, you know what? We don't have the biggest American audience So let's not bother Oh, good, yeah, just fuck them Let's just fuck them Oh, yeah If you're listening, great, but...
Starting point is 00:12:14 Oh, wow Oh, I do I'm being a fool You are being a fool For larks So today, we're doing biscuits And we're going to try the branded recognized solid dependable biscuits against their basic or knockoff variety and these are all mcvitties the brands are they
Starting point is 00:12:33 yes so today we're looking at rich tea i personally i like it i like it you know i like it with a little bit of nutella on that's my little secret i wouldn't put a spread on myself it's sweet enough for me it is it's a nice dunking biscuit now on. That's my little secret shame. I wouldn't put a spread on myself. It's sweet enough for me. It is. It's a nice dunking biscuit. Now, Paul, I feel the need to ask you, what is your whole general attitude towards biscuits? I like them. I'm a dunker.
Starting point is 00:12:56 I like my biscuits to be dunked. And this rich tea is a good dunker. Well, it's in the name. It's in the name. It's what it's for. Same for morning coffee. That's a good dunking biscuit. It's a biscuit called morning coffee? Yeah. Is there one called... It's a little square biscuit that's what he's for. Same for morning coffee. That's a good Dunkin' Biscuit. It's a biscuit called morning coffee?
Starting point is 00:13:06 Yeah. Is there one called... It's a little square biscuit that's basically like a very thin, rich tea. Is there one called glass of water on a hot day? No. That would be a good biscuit. There's one called nice. Because there's one called table water, which are crackers as well.
Starting point is 00:13:18 Remember crackers? Oh, table water biscuits. Yeah, what the fuck does that mean? Crackers? They're made with water. It doesn't mean you have to have them with water. No. See, this, but if you go by that rule for rich tea, you'd think,ackers? They're made with water. It doesn't mean you have to have them with water. No. See, this.
Starting point is 00:13:25 But if you go by that rule for rich tea, you'd think, oh, these are biscuits made with tea. They could be. Where does the name come from? It's a rich biscuit made for dunking in tea. And it's a classic, it says there. Rich tea classic. Well, if you have to put classic on your products. I mean, Coke did.
Starting point is 00:13:42 Because they fucked up the recipe. So maybe they fucked up their biscuits once. That's when you start calling it Cheap Show Classic. What? Cheap Show Classic. Cheap Show Classic. We're not though.
Starting point is 00:13:50 We're definitely a new Cheap Show at this point. Anyway, biscuit. What kind of a biscuit is it? What do you describe it? It's a very dry, dry, crunchy
Starting point is 00:13:58 wheat biscuit. Crispy? Yeah. Sweet? Not overly sweet. Anyway, next is the McVitie's's digestives oaty crumbly biscuit they've got much more of a rough texture again they were initially designed for digestion
Starting point is 00:14:14 they thought that by eating them yeah but that's just like there's all that old stuff like that used to be sort of like a medicine but like lucas aid was seen as medicinal wasn't yeah i like a nice chocolate digestive but for the sake of this it's gone pure. And what's the last item I'll be blind testing against its off-brand competitor? Ginger nuts. Yes, but...
Starting point is 00:14:35 Yes, but what's the last... Oh, I know. We have such fun on this show. Yes, Paul, but what's the last biscuit I'll be tasting? McVitie's ginger nut biscuit. Oh, I see. A ginger crunchy biscuit. These are good fucking dunking biscuits.
Starting point is 00:14:51 Ginger snap is another thing. That kind of biscuit's been referred to, yeah. Yeah, but they're just a nice, hard, slightly chewy ginger biscuit. I think a ginger snap might be the American term for it, actually. Maybe, but these, in a cup of tea, are the perfect fucking dunker. Yeah, you see, the thing is, it, actually. Maybe, but these in a cup of tea are the perfect fucking donker. Yeah, you think... See, the thing is, Paul, I don't really like biscuits. Well, then we won't do this section then, shall we?
Starting point is 00:15:11 Well, if we go by that logic, I don't really like you, so should we just not do the podcast? Anyway, as a result, I also went and was in Sainsbury's and I bought their Basics Rich Tea. Okay. Okay, so you're going to be... I feel pretty confident I'll be able to tell the difference.
Starting point is 00:15:27 What do you think is going to be the difference? I just think it's going to be a sort of quality issue. Okay. Sainsbury's Basics are pretty basic and it's got...
Starting point is 00:15:34 Look, it's got... It's got their little sort of cheap brand... Yeah. Knock-off version of design. ...justification sort of... Tastes like shit but you're a cunt.
Starting point is 00:15:42 You paid 20p for this? Yeah. What do you expect? That was like 35p. It's got rat feces in paid 20p for this? Yeah. What do you expect? I think that was like 35p. It's got rat feces in it. But it's basics. What do you want? But anyway.
Starting point is 00:15:50 And their little thing for these is simple favourite, great for dunking. We put no money into this. Just dunk it to mask the taste. And then actually Sainsbury's own brand rich tea. Okay. So that's just their version of the rich tea business. What were those? Basics. Sainsbury's basics brand rich tea. Okay. So that's just their version of the rich tea biscuit. What were those?
Starting point is 00:16:06 Basics. Sainsbury's basics. Those are digestives? No. Rich tea. You've got two basic rich teas? Two different rich teas? I've got three.
Starting point is 00:16:14 Rich tea. Sainsbury's rich tea. I can't compare the digestive against anything. No. I've got them as well. All right. You've got two types of fake rich tea. Do you know how many fucking biscuits I've fucking got?
Starting point is 00:16:24 You've got a lot of biscuits in that bag. I've got Sainsbury's basic digestives, so you can compare that to that. Okay. And what does it say on that? Simple, classic, great for dunking. And then I've also got ginger snaps. Okay. See, they're called snaps here.
Starting point is 00:16:38 So the generic term is a ginger snap. That's the type of biscuit. So you've got a comparison for every real item. All right. Okay. I think that time has come, Paul. All right. Let's start with the rich tea, shall we?
Starting point is 00:16:50 It's for me to put on my blindfold. Presented by Richard Brandl. Oh, he's coming. I'll just go let him in. Huff, huff, huff, huff, huff, huff, huff, huff, huff. Oh, hello there, Paul. Hello, Richard. Thank you for coming, even though you weren't invited. A very busy man, huff, huff, huff, huff, huff. Oh, hello there, Paul. Hello, Richard. Thank you for coming, even though you weren't invited.
Starting point is 00:17:07 A very busy man, but yes, sir. I'm glad to... Excuse me? Fuck off, then, if you're busy. I'm Richard Brandoff. You want people who are here. You can't talk to Richard Brandoff like that. Just did, though, didn't I?
Starting point is 00:17:17 So fuck off, Richard. Eli, what have you got to say about this? Don't ask him. He's not in charge of this show. Yeah? I'm Richard Brandoff. You can't deal with a situation like this. A't ask him. He's not in charge of this show. Uh, yeah. I'm Richard Brownoff. You can't deal
Starting point is 00:17:26 with a situation like this. A situation? Fuck off. Is that like a situation you buy in a Chinese restaurant?
Starting point is 00:17:32 Yes. A situation? Get it, Paul? Get it? Yeah. Anyway, I'm opening biscuits. Right, here's
Starting point is 00:17:40 the, uh, here's a blindfold for you, Eli. I tell you what, I had to get my secretary, Deirdre, who I'm boning, to get me this blindfold. Sorry, it smells of spunk. I hate this character.
Starting point is 00:17:55 I hate this character. Here we go, Eli. I'm going to present this. It's a red vest. It's the red vest by Richard Brandoff. And I'm off. What a waste of time, ladies and gentlemen. this. It's a red vest. It's the red vest by Richard Brandoff and I'm off. What a waste of time, ladies and gentlemen.
Starting point is 00:18:11 I think you'll all agree, what a waste of time. Come on. Fuck off. Just put your fucking vest over your head. I was just seeing Richard Brandoff to the door, Paul. Why wasn't there a sound effect for the door closing then? Well, I was hoping you'd put that in in the edit. Well, I'm not going to, to spite you. I think we need sound effect support for Richard Brandoff.
Starting point is 00:18:30 We'll talk about it off the show. All that effort for that. All that effort for that. I think he's shouting at his secretary out in the hall. I feel embarrassed that you are so attached to that you. Just wipe the spank off. I feel... The vest on. I feel embarrassed that you are so attached to that character. Now put your vest on. Right, I'm going. Fucking hell.
Starting point is 00:18:52 Put your vest on. I think he's gone, Paul. It's 11 o'clock at night and I just want you to fucking put your vest on. I've got the vest on. Oh, yeah. All right, yeah? I'm ready for... Off Brand Brand Off.
Starting point is 00:19:02 Off Brand Brand Off. Don't do this on time. So, we're going to start with Rich T, okay? Are you ready? Off Brand Brand Off, yeah. I'm not Don't do this on. It's fine. So we're going to start with Rich T. Okay? Are you ready? Off Brand Brand Off. I'm not going to tell you which one I'm giving you.
Starting point is 00:19:09 You have to bite and taste. Do you have a pen and paper? I do. I have a pen. Look. Ow! And I have paper. So I'll be writing down your notes.
Starting point is 00:19:18 Okay? Okay. Just texting Richard Brand Off to say sorry for you. Don't bother. He's not coming back. I don't feel attached to him and you shouldn't. Are you ready for your
Starting point is 00:19:27 first biscuit? I am ready. Give me the biscuit. I want smell, texture, all of that. Here's your first biscuit now. Okay. I'm giving it a sniff. Immediately it feels stale. Interesting. Texture, I can't tell anything like that. The sniff is giving me
Starting point is 00:19:43 it's got a biscuit taste of sort of smell. Yeah. Smell to it. But it does smell a bit stale. Stop touching your mic. I'm eating it now. I can't see shit. Mmm.

Starting point is 00:20:04 Very crisp. That's nice I mean okay apart from this maybe this is going to be a very difficult challenge I'm just going to take that
Starting point is 00:20:12 as a baseline because I can't yeah so what do you think that is I'm going to have to push you and see what you think to me that is like the McVitie's
Starting point is 00:20:19 I can't okay yeah I need I need to toast another biscuit to be able to let me pour you some water dear so you can cleanse your palate, all right? I've got the little glass here.

Starting point is 00:20:36 Yeah, maybe don't drink out of that. No, just... Is your cup got stuff in? Just drink out of your cup. Okay, the cup. That'll be fine. Your cup is... I'll give you...
Starting point is 00:20:44 Yeah, it had coffee in it. There you go. Okay. Is there water in it now? No, there's nothing in it. Unless you want your cup. Okay, the cup. That'll be fine. Your cup is... I'll give you... It had coffee in it. There you go. Okay, is there water in it now? No, there's nothing in it. Unless you want me to put something in it now. Here we go. I'm pouring it in. Put some coffee in. I mean, some water. Yeah, there you go. Okay. Here is biscuit number two. You ready? Okay, this is it.
Starting point is 00:21:00 It's coming down hardcore now. Here you go. Next biscuit's in your hand. Okay, it's more roughly hewn. Much more roughly hewn, Paul. Oh, it's very roughly hewn. As if it hasn't as well finished as that last one. So I'm thinking this is the knockoff already. Interesting.
Starting point is 00:21:16 This is very knobbly. It's very knobbly indeed. It is very knobbly. Yeah. You're right. It's got a lot of knobbles to it. What's the sniff? Less of a smell. Okay. Less of a smell It's got a lot of nobbles to it. What's the sniff? Less of a smell.
Starting point is 00:21:27 Okay. Less of a smell. Is that a good thing? Yeah, because it doesn't have that stale note. Yeah, that stale tang that some biscuits sometimes have. It doesn't have any of that. He's having a good sniff. It's really got much less of a smell than the last one.
Starting point is 00:21:38 Okay. He's eating it. Mmm. Oh. It's got a more burnt... More burnt? Slightly more burnt. This is fascinating stuff. I think we'll all agree. Flavour.
Starting point is 00:21:51 It's still very similar texture. It just seems less refined. Interesting. Okay. So I'm going to have to push you for that as well. What do you think? God, it's only a biscuit. Come on, it's only a biscuit. Come on, it's only a biscuit. It's your fucking section, mate. I know, but...
Starting point is 00:22:07 Well, don't fucking rush me. I'm going to have to. I need to make gut decisions in a blink of an eye. I think that's one of the... I would say... Yeah. I'll give you one last chance to change them around after you've had all three.
Starting point is 00:22:19 Okay. Yeah? I think that is the sort of Sainsbury's standard. Sainsbury's brand. Yeah.'s standard. Sainsbury's brand. Yeah. All right. Sainsbury's brand. Okay.
Starting point is 00:22:27 Then here's the last one. Here you go. Last biscuit. Last rish tea. Now, this, interestingly enough, Paul, has a knobbliness. Knobbliness, indeed. A knobbliness exactly semi-distant between the last two biscuits, as if it slots in between. Knobbly, knobbly.
Starting point is 00:22:47 It's in between the knobbliness. It's still, knobbly. It's in between the knobbliness. It's still quite knobbly. It's still knobbly biscuit. Yeah. Having a sniff? God, this is disgusting. Again, not much coming off it, but slight staleness.
Starting point is 00:22:59 Okay. What's the taste like, Mr. Silverman? It's just not as nice. Okay. Just drier, less flavour. No amplitude of that rich tea thing. Doesn't have the amplitude that the first one had. So what do you want to say then?
Starting point is 00:23:15 I think this is the basic. I really do. I think this is the basic. Okay, fine. That's your decision then. Okay. Not very nice. I think I'm going to stick with those positions, Paul. Okay. You want to stick with them? Yeah. Fine. Good. Understandable think I'm going to stick with those positions, Paul. Okay.
Starting point is 00:23:26 You want to stick with them? Yeah. Fine. Good. Understandable. We're going to move on now to digestives. Are you ready? I need to wash
Starting point is 00:23:31 the old palate. Well, I let... God, I was really looking forward to the return of Richard Brandoff. You ruined it by insulting him. Seriously, man.
Starting point is 00:23:39 I'm just not impressed with the character, mate. It really is that simple. I don't know what you see in him. I don't know what you see in him. I don't know what other people see in him. It's better than Jimmy Biscuits. Jimmy Biscuits is a fully fleshed out character who
Starting point is 00:23:51 sometimes takes over me. Against my will. Okay, yeah. So you're a medium and he's what? A dead man. Just give me the digestive, yeah? Hang on. I've got to get them out first. Then you're going to forget which is which. I haven't.
Starting point is 00:24:06 Don't worry about it. We've got just how many digestives? Just one and one? Yeah, one and the knockoff. All right, ready? Okay. Here is your first digestive biscuit. Go.
Starting point is 00:24:15 Is it brand on or brand off? It has... It's not as knobbly as some of those rich tea, but you think of it as a more knobbly biscuit. You do. And it has that toasted oat smell that you... That we care so much about biscuit. You do. And it has that toasted oat smell that we care so much about. It does have that toasted oat smell.
Starting point is 00:24:30 He's going in for the bite. It tastes like a digestive. What do you want me to fucking say? Yeah. What do you want me to say? It's flavour, it's amplitude, it's textures. It's really hard to taste. To tell. Unless I get a comparison. It tastes kind of toasty. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:24:45 Yeah. Yeah, a biscuit. Yeah. A bit bready. A bit bready. Again. It tastes nice, does it? Not that nice.
Starting point is 00:24:54 I'm hoping this is the bad one because... All right, well, here's the next biscuit. Give me the other one. Give me the other one. I wasn't impressed. I broke it off this, so I apologise. I got a little bit broke off. Now, this is smoother.
Starting point is 00:25:05 It just feels more uniform. Yeah, you're happy with the texture more on that one. No smell. No smell? Very little smell compared to the last biscuit. And I don't know what that makes me think, you know, whether I'm going plus McVitie's or minus McVitie's with this. I'm lost in a world of my own sensation.
Starting point is 00:25:21 Well, I haven't written anything down yet for these, so I'll let you try both of them before you make a decision. This is your second biscuit. What are you thinking? It has more flavour. Yeah? It's got more of that digestive amplitude. I'd say so.
Starting point is 00:25:34 Yeah? Or does it? Oh, is there a twist in this tale? I am going to have to ask you for... It's a bit of a sicky aftertaste. What are you going to do? Is it Sainsbury's or is it McVitie's? I want you to tell me what you think the first biscuit was,
Starting point is 00:25:47 and then the second. The first one was the McVitie's. The second was the knock-off. All right, and now we're going to go on to the final round. Are you ready for some ginger action? Boom! Snap me up a ginger snap. These are my personal favourites.
Starting point is 00:26:00 I've got to be in a mood for them. Yeah, really? You would do a whole sleeve, would you? Easy. Really? Yeah. See, I never eat a whole sleeve of biscuits. In one sitting? Never. I've got to be in a mood for them. Yeah, really? You would do a whole sleeve, would you? Easy. Really? Yeah. See, I never eat a whole sleeve of biscuits. In one sitting? Never. I've been known to.
Starting point is 00:26:12 Yeah. That's why I'm so fucking out of shape. No, actually, I might have done a whole jammy Dodgers. But you don't get many. You can polish those off, though, really quick. You don't get that many, do you? No. You only get about eight of them. It's not like a whole sleeve stacked up like this. No. No biscuits were harmed in the making of this segment. I have to say, I haven't got a great deal of experience with ginger snaps.
Starting point is 00:26:28 I tend to sort of eat half of one and then think, oh, what the fuck is the point of that? Fair enough. What is the point? All right, well, here we go. Here is your first ginger snap. Cleaning the old pallet hole. Here is your first ginger snap.
Starting point is 00:26:40 Let me just find a purchase here. Here you go, mate. Have fun. It's a very uniform texture in the handies. The fingertips, those. I love getting crumbs on the mic cover. Sorry. Go on.
Starting point is 00:26:53 Have a nibble. Watch your gut instinct. Taste of ginger snap, yeah. A sweet, gingery, crunchy, crumbly biscuit. It's just such a familiar flavour. Do you know what I mean. It's just such a familiar flavour. Do you know what I mean? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:27:07 It's so familiar. I like him. Dunk him in a nice sweet tea. Oh, bliss, my darling. Nice ginger finish. Yeah. Got a lot of... You like ginger finish.
Starting point is 00:27:15 How is that? You can't twist that round. I gave her a ginger finish last night. What does that mean? You rub it raw, so it's red. So it's all red. That tickled didn't it so old i gave her a ginger i can't i gave her a ginger biscuit anyway so all right here's your second ginger biscuit then okay i'd like that one that's that's a tasty biscuit here is your second ginger biscuit oh even
Starting point is 00:27:41 more smooth on the texture very Very smooth. The finger vibe. The ever so slightly orangey looking biscuit. He's having a go. He's just going straight in. That has more snap. Has more snap. Does that make it
Starting point is 00:27:55 the ginger snap? It's a sort of earthier. I prefer that one. Do you do? Yeah. It's got a sort of earthier it's less sweet. Less sickly almost. Okay. Alright. Do you do? Yeah. It's got a sort of earthier... It's less sweet, less sickly, almost.
Starting point is 00:28:08 Okay. Alright. So you put it... Which one's which, do you think? Which one? I'm thinking, is that... No, I think that is the McVitie's, the second one. The second one is McVitie's. Yeah. And the other one is just the normal... The first one is Sainsbury's ones. Yeah. Alright, so... Can I remove my blindfold now? You can now remove your blindfold. The test under laboratory conditions
Starting point is 00:28:23 are now over. Oh, there's a bunch of biscuits on my bed. You've got a bunch of biscuits on your bed. That's a nice little tongue twister. No, it's not. Buttery biscuits. A bunch of buttery biscuits on my bloody, dirty bed. Dirty bed? Dirty bed. It's a brand of beds. Get with it, Daddy. Oh.
Starting point is 00:28:40 Right, so, are you ready to find out how you did? Yes. So, rich tea. This was where we had triple rich tea. Yeah, we had you did? Yes. So, Rich Tea. This was where we had triple Rich Tea. Yeah, we had triple. Two knock-offs, three layers. Yeah. Three levels.
Starting point is 00:28:51 The bottom level, the basics. Yeah. Middle level, Sainsbury's own brand. Yeah. And the top level, the McVitie's. The McVitie's. Rich Tea. So, you said...
Starting point is 00:29:01 I think I preferred the first one. So, you preferred the first one. Okay. Yeah. Actually, which one did you digest that So you preferred the first one. Okay. Yeah. Actually, which one did you digest? Did you prefer the first or second? The first. And then with the ginger snaps, you got the second one, didn't you?
Starting point is 00:29:12 Yeah. All right. Okay. Interesting note. I'll make this note. So for Rich T, you said the first was McFitty's, the second was Sainsbury's, and the last was Basic. The answer was, or rather the results were,
Starting point is 00:29:25 the first was Sainsbury's, but you preferred that one. Okay. The second was McVitie's and then the last was Basic. So you got the Basic right. Right, yeah. It was much, much inferior. But you enjoyed the cheaper one. I enjoyed the cheaper one slightly more.
Starting point is 00:29:38 McVitie's was £1 and they were, I think, £80, maybe £75 for the Sainsbury's one. Similar price range. Similar, but if you count your pennies. I tell you what, maybe 75p for the Sainsbury's one. Similar price range. Similar, but if you're counting your pennies. I tell you what, that was the clearest one. The third one was just so dull compared to it. It felt like a facsimile. It really did. It was quite sawdusty.
Starting point is 00:29:56 Okay. Well, interestingly enough, you did also prefer that. So maybe if you're on a budget, Sainsbury's brand is fine. Might as well just go for Sainsbury's brand. Just go for it. So also, Asda brand and Tesco, I'm sure at some point we might try them as well at some point. But we can't say that they're as good because they do wildly vary. They do.
Starting point is 00:30:15 So we can't vouch for them right now. They do wildly vary. We'll come back to that at a later date when we run out of other ideas. Right. So the next one was Digestive. You said the first was McVvitty's and you preferred that and the second was sainsbury's i had a more sort of rough okay here the results are the first was sainsbury's again you preferred sainsbury's and the second was mcvitty's really yeah so
Starting point is 00:30:39 interestingly enough you were gone for sainsbury's both time and again same price difference digest was about a quid or so just you're just paying for the brand name then, it just seems. Apparently. I mean, maybe there's like, for instance, my dad's with baked beans. He will only eat Heinz baked beans. He will know if you use any other beans. He actually knows. Can he actually tell?
Starting point is 00:30:56 He can just tell. We gave him Daddy's, wasn't happy with it. Really? But Daddy's is awful. I mean, that's really, yeah. Anyway, that's why he only eats Heinz. I'd be interested now. I'm sure you could fool him with some of the own brand.
Starting point is 00:31:06 Maybe that's something I'll think about in the future. Fooling my dad with beans. What were you going on about? Give, have my old beans was the way. Giving her the beans. Giving her the old beans. Giving her the old beans. That is not, not going to catch up.
Starting point is 00:31:19 Not going to give my dad those beans. Don't give your dad the old beans. So again, if you're saving money, Sainsbury's is just as good. I could not tell the difference. I couldn't tell the difference. In fact, I thought the opposite. Okay, and finally, it was the Ginger Snaps. So you said the first was Sainsbury's and the second was McVitie's and you preferred the second.
Starting point is 00:31:40 Yeah. The answers were the first was McVitie's and the second was Sainsbury's, which is the one you preferred. Weird. Yeah. The answers were the first was McVitie's and the second was Sainsbury's, which is the one you preferred. Weird. Yeah. I much prefer Sainsbury's biscuits to... McVitie's? Very strange. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:31:51 They just seem to have more character. Interesting. The Sainsbury's ones. Because again, as I say, some people just only eat McVitie's because it's brand and I'm comfortable and cozy with that flavor. Whereas if you want to save a bit of money, you might... I think biscuits is a realm where you don't, you know. But then you get the really cheap ones, like the knock-off bourbons, and they're just awful, aren't they?
Starting point is 00:32:12 Nice, nasty. Just nothing to them. So we should do another edition of this where we do those kind of biscuits. Yeah. Bourbons, custard creams. I think maybe you could tell the difference there more. Nice biscuits. What are those milky ones?
Starting point is 00:32:24 It's like a milky biscuit. They're called nice, aren't they? Oh, they are nice. No, they're the ones milky ones? You know, it's like a milky biscuit. They're called nice. Oh, they are nice. No, they're the ones dipped in sugar. There's one that's got like a milky biscuit, isn't it? Yeah, malted milk. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:32:33 We should try. All right, that's our next port of call. So another classic biscuit edition. Very Britishy biscuit. Brisket is beef. Shut up. Shut up. Brought to you by Richard Brandoff. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:32:44 Who... Do you have any final words, Richard Brandoff? No, he's gone. Good. But, you know, he's insisted we play his little, his little, what do they call it when it's like a jingle, but it's even short, like, I'm loving it. Or it's a sting.
Starting point is 00:32:59 Well, that was Brandoff off, Brand, Brandoff today. And I think we'll all agree we were all a bit surprised. Okay. Oh, it's back in the platter to spin the wands. Oh, don't fucking do that when I'm doing an intro, you ugly man. Don't start this. You are ugly. No, I'm not.
Starting point is 00:33:22 I mean, you're handsome to some women. And those women probably have poor father figures.. No, I'm not. I mean, you're handsome to some women. And those women probably have poor father figures. They're blind. I'm so shit. I'm so fucking shit, mate. That's how you fizz, mate.
Starting point is 00:33:37 Oh, yeah. Come on, do it a decent... Come on, try and do an impression of me. Come on, try and do an impression of me. What have we got now, Paul? We're going back to the platter land. Is it platter splatter time? It's splatter platter tatter time.
Starting point is 00:33:53 I'm Eric McFatter, and here is Silverman's Splatter Platters, and I'm mad as a hatter. Fucking desperate. Crap, desperate, wank. Stop it. It's annoying, is it, when I do that, wank. Stop it. It's annoying, is it, when I do that? I've just discovered it, and it's like I've got a whole new lease of life. No, it's madness.
Starting point is 00:34:14 You doing that is fucking madness. We are now delving back into the platter land, and we've got some core, core-blimey, hot, juicy stingers for you today. We've got some hot, juicy, waxy spl the platter land and we've got some core core blimey hot juicy stingers for you today. We've got some hot juicy waxy splatter platters. Oh, it's going to get chunky up in this groove. Oh, spin it round until the waxy merits. Oh, I'm going to
Starting point is 00:34:35 lick your labia. Oh dear. Oh dear. Right, so let's begin. Oh, I'm so hot, Paul. I know you are, darling. Oh, dear. Right, so let's begin. I'm so hot, Paul. I know you are, darling. Take it off. Shut up.
Starting point is 00:34:51 No. Take it off. I'm boiling, though. Take it off, darling. Take what off? Your clothes, darling. It. Take them off, yeah.
Starting point is 00:35:00 They're plural. Take it off. It what? Take it all off. It all? Take it all off. At all? Take it all off. At least you're asking me nicely, properly now. Take it all off, my love.
Starting point is 00:35:10 Don't fool me. No. Don't fool me. To this, it's Steve Wright again. We've had him on the show in the past. He was a famous DJ in the 80s. Still is. He's still very successful on Radio 2 now.
Starting point is 00:35:25 He's not as famous as he was. Pretty much doing the exact same fucking shtick as he did back then. He's had a great career. He was a big man in the 80s. He was very big in the 80s. He's very big now. For a few years.
Starting point is 00:35:34 Right. He's ballooned, has he? Oh, I mean. He's like, I want to do right in the afternoon. Yeah? Yeah, that's what the radio show sounds like. Steve, right in the afternoon. I like. Steve Wright in the afternoon.
Starting point is 00:35:45 I'm walking on the train around the waves. Walking on the train. Right. So, but look, Paul, am I right in thinking he was actually quite hot in that sort of hot young DJ way? He was. It was a very cheesy thing. I mean, people like Kenny Eddard would have looked down at him.
Starting point is 00:36:01 Would have looked down at... To some extent. Because Steve Wright was... Quite populist. Yeah was quite populist. Yeah, very populist. And he also tried to borrow the American style where he had a crew in around him. Okay.
Starting point is 00:36:10 That was his thing. So he'd be like, look, I just said something weird. He didn't know. Bob the Barrel. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, he did. What do you think, KT Secretary?
Starting point is 00:36:19 Oh, well, you know. Right, so it was a bit like Dream Show then. With us doing... With him doing all the characters. Right, don't pull the curtain back. Don't show him. So anyway, not only was a bit like Cheap Show then. With us doing... With him doing all the characters. Don't pull the curtain back. Don't show up. So anyway, not only was he a DJ with a slightly corny and cheesy style
Starting point is 00:36:32 with a gang that all chipped in and kind of riffed on each other. He also released songs. And we've released a few of them in the past on Cheap Show, On To Your Ears. Mr. Angry. And The Terminator. The Angry Rap and The Terminator one.
Starting point is 00:36:44 What was that? I'll Be Back. Arnie and the Schwarzeneggers. Was it called something like that? Some shit. Arnie and the angry rap and the terminator one what was that i'll be back arnie and the schwarzeneggers was it called something like that arnie and the terminators yeah yeah piss poor it was a cash-in but anyway i was in an ox and it was that that era of the uh of the arnold schwarzenegger impression where they didn't sound like arnold schwarzenegger no they sound like the impression of arnold schwarzenegger you know being because that's like when i do your eli yeah it's become very much more sophisticated like Arnold Schwarzenegger. No, they sound like the impression of Arnold Schwarzenegger. You know what I mean? It's like when I do your Eli. Yeah, it's become very much more sophisticated, the Schwarzenegger impression, over the years. Oh, it's...
Starting point is 00:37:10 Hasn't it? But back then, they just did a sort of generic German accent, and that was enough. Ja, I'm... Ja, I'm Arnold Schwarzenegger. Arnold Schwarzenegger. Now it would be... Talk to me.
Starting point is 00:37:20 Wouldn't it? You know what? I'm Arnold... Anyway. It sounds a bit like... But he's not coming back for another two episodes. Anyway, I was in Oxfam. Oh, what were you doing? Looking for stuff.
Starting point is 00:37:35 I found Def Leppard. We're getting all Scrammaramagey. I was getting all Scrammaramagey. And I got Hysteria in mint condition on vinyl. And it was two quid. You have literally mentioned that twice now. I fucking love it. Or three times during this whole episode.
Starting point is 00:37:50 I fucking love Hysteria. I've got the fucking picture discs sitting in the other room. Have you? Yes. I've got some lovely little picture discs in the other room. Shall we? Well, only if they're good. Oh, I'll be good.
Starting point is 00:38:01 Stop going on about your copy of Hysteria. It must be worth all of three quid no it was two it cost two yeah yeah it probably might be worth one pound more than that
Starting point is 00:38:10 I don't care I like this in very good condition it sounds great anyway this is Steve Wright in the afternoon with the Sisters of Soul
Starting point is 00:38:15 it's one of these hand drawn covers and the song is called Get Some Therapy and it sounds unfortunately like this. Well you may be sure, I've got the cure, I'm gonna teach you where it's at. There'll be no more pills or doctor's bills, you'll be cured in seconds flat!
Starting point is 00:38:49 You gotta get some therapy, ooh ooh ooh You gotta get some therapy, ooh ooh ooh Feel the pulse and feel the need, let your sight go into seat With therapy, therapy, therapy therapy therapy therapy therapy
Starting point is 00:39:16 I wonder how well that did because it's sort of I could find out but I don't want to bother he's not trying to be that comedic is he? He's almost like's not trying to be that comedic, is he? He's almost like he's trying to have a sort of legitimate pop hit with this. Because he tries to sing the beginning, and then he goes into that kind of vocal, just talky, talky bit.
Starting point is 00:39:32 But it's almost like it's supposed to be just a good tune. Well, it's like we were trying to figure out what the bass line was, and your flatmate Rogan said... It's nicked from Imagination. By... Odyssey? Odyssey, yeah. No, Illusion.
Starting point is 00:39:44 Just an illusion. Just an illusion. Do-ba-do-ba-do. imagination by Odyssey Odyssey yeah yeah no illusion just an illusion is that one anyway yeah I can see I can feel it in my head but the minute I try and get it out my mouth I
Starting point is 00:39:53 can't grab it I'm just gonna go check with him because we've totally forgotten I'm gonna don't tell me imagination is it yeah what's the
Starting point is 00:39:59 tune called what's the artist we don't know what we're talking about here Paul Okay Google We'll just set off a few phones around the country Don't get angry with it Imagination 80s pop
Starting point is 00:40:13 Here are the top search results The first is from Wikipedia Maybe it is just an illusion Here we go Is this the one it's like? I think it is actually I think that's what Yeah
Starting point is 00:40:33 This song's stealing I think it is Let's wait for the bassline Yeah It's that bassline I mean This is much better This is fucking awesome
Starting point is 00:40:44 Yeah But he's definitely going for that sound It's that bass line. I mean... This is much better. This is fucking awesome. But he's definitely going for that sound, even if it isn't a direct rip-off of that tune. He's definitely going for that sound. But it's piss, vinegar, piss, poor, wet. Kind of jazz funk. I guess you'd call it sound.
Starting point is 00:40:59 Weak. Popular then. It's weak. It's very weak. Anyway, we forgot to score things five out of ten. Well... Doesn't fucking matter so i found that and on the b side there are three tracks because it's a 12 inch which means it's an elongated version of that get some therapy track it's interminable it has two versions of that yeah it's got get some therapy which is all of side one then uh the first track on side two is more therapy it's basically it's basically like a
Starting point is 00:41:23 dub version yeah just that's all it is and then it's got i'm all white you're all white i'm all white and you're all right yeah it's a chas and dave knockoff it's a chas and dave knockoff but i'd forgotten that even existed and it's sort of in a little corner of my mind that i'd never been to and then all of a sudden like a drawer opens and something tumbles out it's like that like i just said fucking terrible it's fucking terrible terrible It's really annoying And actually, do you know what it does? It actually devalues, I think, how good Chas and Dave are Totally You can't go wrong You alright? I'm alright, you alright? Yeah, I'm alright, you alright? I'm alright, you alright?
Starting point is 00:42:05 I'm alright, you alright? Yeah, you alright? I'm alright, I'm alright? Everybody's asking, what's the scan? I just say, I'm not a well man Saw the doctor yesterday This is what he had to say I think you've got a dreadful cheek
Starting point is 00:42:17 I've seen you 14 times this week I've given you a routine check You're making me a nervous wreck I'm alright, you alright? Everyone's feeling making me a nervous wreck. I'm alright. You're alright. Everyone's feeling alright tonight. Now's the time to sing this song. If you're alright, you can't go wrong. We're alright.
Starting point is 00:42:32 We're alright. Everyone's having a ball tonight. Having a laugh and singing a song. If we're alright, we can't go wrong. You know what I mean? They have a reputation for being slightly cheesy. But they weren't. But they had some great songs.
Starting point is 00:42:45 Really good stuff. I always... What's that one I love so much? Come on, brain. Oh, fuck. That's going to annoy me. What's Leaving You? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:42:57 Ain't No Pleasing You. Ain't No Pleasing You. That's a wicked tune. Very heartfelt. It's kind of like a blues it has emotion yeah they were cockney blues
Starting point is 00:43:07 they were just so huge at the time yeah I think it was an oversaturation thing maybe and again they went on to do Rabbit was the eponymous one
Starting point is 00:43:16 that people kind of associate with which is what It's Alright is taking the piss it's trying to take the piss but it just manages to be a sort of sneery like the washboard song it's got a sort of sneery tone
Starting point is 00:43:24 yeah do you know what I mean Chas Davis shit Chas Davis shit it's all this in it it's all shit and it's like It just manages to be a sort of sneery. It's got a sort of sneery tone. Yeah. Do you know what I mean? Chaz David shit. Chaz David shit. It's all this. In it. It's all shit. And it's like, actually, Steve.
Starting point is 00:43:30 He's taking the piss out of that kind of culture. And it's like, Steve, you know. You'd pray to have a fucking... That's my cigarette. I rolled that for me. Don't fucking do that. Well, light it then. We're recording.
Starting point is 00:43:43 It's very rude to smoke and record. This isn't like a 1970s American chat show. I wish it was sometimes. Let's smoke. Don't smoke, ladies and gentlemen, at home or in your car or listening on the bus. Kids, don't smoke. It's very bad. But we want to look cool.
Starting point is 00:44:00 I've got no light. Where's my lighter? So let's just imagine it's... It's all dusty in the house of pickles. So I've got no light. Where's my lighter? So let's just imagine it's... It's all dusty in the house of pickles. Ah, so... I've got one. Where's my washboard? I don't fucking know.
Starting point is 00:44:13 We had one before because you smoked it. It's gone. Let's keep discussing sticks. Right. Cunt. Yeah, basically that's what we're trying to say, isn't it? And the last one, Damien, I can't figure out. I cannot figure out what it's going on about at all.
Starting point is 00:44:28 So if anyone can help us... Because as you thought, it was going to be like a Damien-Omen thing, but it's not. I was sure, because that was the most famous... Omen was out years before, however. Yes, that's true. Omen was like 75, I believe. Something like that, yes.
Starting point is 00:44:42 And this is, what, 83? 83, yeah. So, it's still, it's the most famous instance of that name, Damien. And it seems to be about his name. It seems to be about that name. But it also seems to be like a piss take of the sort of trendy... It's like a con opera kind of thing. It seems to be a piss take of the trendy sort of new age sort of stuff that was around then. It mentions macrobaritism, which is the diet that my parents forced me to be a piss-take of the trendy sort of new age sort of stuff that was around then.
Starting point is 00:45:05 It mentions macrobatism, which is the diet that my parents forced me to be until I was five. Maybe that's what they're getting at. They're saying that this kind of person's a bit special, quote-unquote. So he's like a special kid that we're going to grow up with. It's sort of a dig at the hippies. It's hard to know. It's a weird song. I'm going to play a little bit of it in the show now. what was in her name. Oh, Damien,
Starting point is 00:45:47 you've only got your mother to blame. Hello, Vibers. The festive message from Great Britain's favourite social worker is don't overburden your body with corrupt foodstuffs. You'll pay very dearly and Retribution will pie you I come in No visit Oh, Damien
Starting point is 00:46:13 We used to wonder what was in a name Oh, Damien You've only got your mother to blame If you can figure that shit out, get in touch. Oh, Damien, you've only got your mother to blame. If you can figure that shit out, get in touch. I wouldn't put too much effort in. So that's my platter. Steve Wright, out the way.
Starting point is 00:46:36 Now, you've got two big hitters to end on, don't you, Silverman? Let's get serious. Let's start. You know I've got a fondness, Paul. All right, you have a fondness. I don't. That's just not cool. For sticking your dick into warm fruit. No, I don't that's just not cool For sticking your dick into warm fruit No I don't
Starting point is 00:46:48 Why not How about you don't fucking interrupt me Imagine drilling a melon hole Imagine drilling a melon hole A hole for a melon And And And
Starting point is 00:47:01 And And Right Having sex with it. Until emission. And drinking it. Drinking it. Yeah, drinking it. Down in Wob. Right. Good. We've got that out of the way then?
Starting point is 00:47:12 Yeah. All right. I have a fondness for Eurodisco, Paul. Eurodisco is a genre. It's known as cheesy. It's known as shit. But I really do like a lot of Eurodisco. Good.
Starting point is 00:47:26 And there have been examples of records I like, such as Amadeo. Oh, yeah. 33rd Floor. 33rd Floor. I love that. That's Eurodisco. LAX. Have we done Mission to Venus?
Starting point is 00:47:36 Yeah, that was in the Eurovision special we did. Mission to Venus. Which are called what? Convention. Silver Convention. Silver Convention. German. And we, of course, famously.
Starting point is 00:47:46 Famously. Who could forget? I couldn't. The Shingers Khan. Oh, I love that. No, it's shit. But the first wasn't very good. I liked it.
Starting point is 00:47:54 There's been examples of my fondness for Eurodisco over the years on this section of the show, Paul. It's been well documented, ladies and gentlemen. I've got another couple of stonkers for you tonight. Let's start with Androgynous Sound by Andro Singers. Interesting. On the cover, it's two bald... Is it mannequins or are they real people? I think they are mannequins, aren't they?
Starting point is 00:48:19 Two mannequins in a state of, I don't know, intimacy. They're about to give it, get it on. Mannequin on. And they're and get it on. Mannequin it on. And they're androgynous. Mannequin it on. Adaptive thought it through, it doesn't work. That doesn't work at all. Oh, dear.
Starting point is 00:48:34 Do you want to try it again? No. No, because there's nothing there. So let's play a bit of it right now. Anita, I'm thirsty. Do you want something to drink? Some orange juice? No way. You're much too gay. Aw, come on. Let's go.
Starting point is 00:49:43 Well, okay. If there's the androgynous sound we both can play. It's all about that. It's people who don't speak English as a first language trying to think of some kind of skit at the beginning. And it comes across like, hey, I'm thirsty. Oh, you're too gay. Yeah, what was all that about? I do not know. Let's go and do the Andromeda. It's just like that.
Starting point is 00:50:01 If I hadn't have played it, you wouldn't have known because they were identical, those two versions. So she's like, I'm sorry, you're too gay. Unsettling. At the beginning. And then it goes, it's got one of those disco beats. It's like... Isn't it?
Starting point is 00:50:17 You can just imagine some kind of dirty little mustachioed guy. Sort of going... Yeah. Thrusting in a corridor. Very much so. Going, oh, this is flock wallpaper.
Starting point is 00:50:31 What a rich character you've invented. Let's move on. I don't know if I like it. It was too weird. I like it. It was too weird. I like it.
Starting point is 00:50:40 Stop opening that. It's so hot and it's sweaty and it's dark and it feels weird right now. dark and it feels weird right now. Doing this show feels weird right now. Well, you insisted. I know.
Starting point is 00:50:51 We have to because my workload means we have to record these now. That's not the way it should be done, Paul. But we're still delivering quality content. I think everyone will agree. I don't know. I don't know. I don't think so. I tried to do something there and you just said, that's shit, let's move on.
Starting point is 00:51:06 We can't get like that. We can't get like that, Paul. You can. We can't just be like, oh, you're shit, we're an earthly podcast. We're real. That's the Andro Singers.
Starting point is 00:51:15 Yeah, anything? Anything else you want to add to it? I quite like it. All right, so what are we ending on today, Mr. La Silva Man? Now, this is another bit of Euro disco. Lovely. It's a theme.
Starting point is 00:51:27 It's a flip side of this record by the Saar Band. They're called Saar Band, S-A-R-R. S-A-R-R. Okay. The A side is Magic Mandrake. Quite a sort of straightforward, if a slightly campy disco number. Pretty good instrumentation. Then on the flip,
Starting point is 00:51:45 you have Mephisto. It's another word for the devil, Paul. It's... Listen to this. Mephisto! I want you, I want you I've got to have your soul No, I won't give you my soul
Starting point is 00:52:35 No, no, no, no, no I fucking love that that's a bit cheesy kind of rapey she says no she's saying no to the devil the whole way through and then at the end
Starting point is 00:53:02 she's like oh okay yes I know but it's a tricky one very different and he goes oh ho ho She says no. She's saying no to the devil the whole way through. And then at the end, she's like, oh, okay, yes. I know, but it's a tricky one. Very different sexual. Ha, ha, ha. Mephisto. Yeah, because that's how you get a woman to like you.
Starting point is 00:53:13 Mephisto. You just shout your name at them over and over. If you're Mephisto, that's what you do. Yeah, but you could go up to a lady and go, Eli. Eli. Ha, ha, ha. Mephisto. I'm running so fast.
Starting point is 00:53:26 I mean, yes. No, it's good. It's got a lot of... It's got a zesty spirit. It's because it's like... He's got a Dracula sense to him. He's trying to do a Dracula. He's luring ladies into their demise,
Starting point is 00:53:35 and then he gets their souls. And it also has quite a flagrant, synthesised, squelchy ejaculation noise on it, doesn't it? Yeah. Which is also a goer for me. It's always a goer. No, you know what?
Starting point is 00:53:48 That's what I'm in flavour country, ladies and gentlemen. Why are there so many thousands of records, especially of the disco genre, which have the sound of a woman having it off on them? Well, famously, Je T'aime. Yes. Oh, Je T'aime. Mo, mo, mo, mo, mo.
Starting point is 00:54:06 That wasn't a disco record, but that was, yes, that trend. Have you ever made love to Je T'aime? No. I did once accidentally make love to Up Je T'aime, though. The Frankie Howard one. Oh, I love that. Shall we listen to a bit of that now? Let's play a little bit of that right now. Over, not again. Do you know what time it is? It's half past three.
Starting point is 00:54:46 Mon amour. Oh, get off. Now, look, stop that. What on earth got into you? It's not Friday, is it? Oh, chérie. Oh, look, cut that out. Pull yourself together, woman. Control yourself. And get back on your own side. I've got to be on the first tee at half past six. Oh, je t'aime, je t'aime. Speak English, woman, whatever's the matter with you? Here, here, leave my scarf alone. Get your hands off. Look, if I go down and make you a cup of cocoa, will you go back to sleep? Que je t'aime, mon amour. All right, all right, but look, don you go back to sleep? Because you're tame when I'm old.
Starting point is 00:55:26 All right, all right. But look, don't go mad. I'm getting on a bit now, you know. Long story short, having sex with a lady, giving the old beans. Giving her the old beans. Hey, darling. Hey, darling. No, no, no, no.
Starting point is 00:55:42 Would you like the beans? I'll give you my old beans later. I'm a real fucking charmer. I'll give you my old beans later. I'm a real fucking charmer. I'll give you my old beans. Know what I mean? No, no one knows what you mean, Paul. I was having half hair on my jaw. I was having sex with her and my iTunes was on
Starting point is 00:55:58 and it was on random. This is part of your old stand-up routine. But it's true that it really happened. Except it was up to your 10. It came routine. No, it's true, but it's true that it really happened. Except it was up your tem. Right, it came on. Yeah, it came on. And then the Grange Hill theme. I also have a copy of that.
Starting point is 00:56:15 Hawks. What's it called? Hawks. Hawkshaw. Hawkshaw is the band. It was used in a few other things before. Wasn't it the theme for Give Us a Clue originally? Was it really?
Starting point is 00:56:24 Yeah, before it became Grange Hill. I might be wrong about that, but I think so. So you have a bit of that as well now? No, because I edit this fucking podcast.
Starting point is 00:56:30 No, you can't. So everyone knows what Grange Hill theme's like. If you don't, check it on YouTube, Grange Hill theme. It's great. Now, there are so many...
Starting point is 00:56:38 What gets me is you sit there and go, okay, what is this? This is great. You're a record producer. You're like, this is great. This record's sounding so hot.
Starting point is 00:56:46 Yeah. You know, it's got a great beat, funky beat. Yeah. The vocals are great. You know what it needs? You know what I think it needs? What does it need, buddy? It needs the sound of a lady having it off.
Starting point is 00:56:56 Oh, we can do that for you. What you got? What you got for me? Carol, come in here. Okay. Hi, Mrs. Bananas. Yay, Mrs. Bananas is back. Hi, Mrs. Bananas. Send it. I don't like the name,. I'm Mrs. Bananas. Yay, Mrs. Bananas is back. I'm Mrs. Bananas.
Starting point is 00:57:06 Send in, I don't like the name, but send in Mrs. Bananas. I'm Mrs. Bananas. Okay, now, thank you, Mrs. Bananas. If you'd like to step up to the mic here. Yes, I'm ready. Now, Mrs. Bananas, I want you to sound just like you're having it off. Hit me. I'm Mrs. Bananas.

Starting point is 00:58:07 Cumshot in a song You must know it What do you mean Cumshot What the actual Synthesised noise Of a splurter Yeah what's the most
Starting point is 00:58:13 Famous example of that Come on you must know Frankie Goes to Hollywood There you go relax Yeah but it's very similar To noise on this record Isn't it to that Isn't it
Starting point is 00:58:21 Sort of I'd love to Would you cum more If you did that sound? Or would you enjoy sex more? That's a very scientific question, Paul. Would you enjoy it more? If the noise of a synthesizer came out of your knob when you did it, would it make you do it more?
Starting point is 00:58:36 No, I've got my clipboard. Yes. Yeah. Of course it would. I'd be wanking all day. Literally, if everyone in the earshot could hear a huge sort of
Starting point is 00:58:46 squealing moog peel do you know what I mean that would be some shit that would be some Eli's listening to some 80s new romantic music again no
Starting point is 00:58:54 is that it for cheap is this it now are we done always end on a cum joke it's important it's a good hitter so Paul that was yes mephisto i like that a lot we give that four out of five i think oh yeah marking them but you didn't
Starting point is 00:59:11 like androgynous uh androgynous singers it was all right it's a bit of a curio but i couldn't get down on the dance floor to it no it wasn't so dancey well done that's that's it silverman's platter that is our lovely, big, bulbous platter. Good. Dun, dun, dun, dun,
Starting point is 00:59:40 dun, dun. There's been a moida. It's time for Gannon's Golden Games, everybody. It is time for Gon's Golden Games, everybody. It is time for Ganon's Golden Games. And this one I'm really excited about playing.
Starting point is 00:59:48 You really splashed out on this one. Well, you say that. And you also spent some money on it. Really? Right. So, I've become a bit of a game board nut. No, a board game nut. A gay board nut.
Starting point is 01:00:03 A game. You did this last time. Same joke. Did I? Yeah. Well, you mispron game. You did this last time. Same joke. Did I? Yeah. Well, you mispronounced it the same way last time. I didn't, though. Game boy.
Starting point is 01:00:09 I said the word game. Game boy. A game boy nut. You are a game boy nut, aren't you? As well as a board game nut. I like my game boys, yeah. You're a game boy nut as well as a board game nut. But I'm a board game nut in this instance.
Starting point is 01:00:20 Okay. I've amassed quite a collection of game boys. Board games recently. God. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. I've amassed quite a collection of Game Boys Board games recently Oh yeah Oh yeah My latest acquisition Again from the Salvation Army Is possibly my favourite yet It is a Cluedo
Starting point is 01:00:36 But not just any Cluedo Did they spread a bit of homophobia to you When you were buying the game? No they didn't Because they Yeah I know to you when you were buying the game? No, they didn't. Okay, good. Because they... Yeah, I know. Right, so... Wow, you really...
Starting point is 01:00:49 It's so sweaty. You're ruining... I'm so irritable. We're about to solve a murder. Okay. And it's important that we get in the zone. Because I've got a Cluedo here, but it's not any old Cluedo.
Starting point is 01:00:59 Now, I'm a huge Cluedo fan. Cluedo, known in the States as Clue. Yeah, because it was based on Ludo. Was it? Yeah, because it had a very similar layout to Ludo when you think about it. Ludo was a sort of logic game, was it? No, Ludo was just to get around the board. It's like frustration, can I move? Right. Yeah? Does that make more sense? Yeah.
Starting point is 01:01:15 So, it was Ludo with a murder mystery Clue, Clue, Ludo. Okay, so that's where the name came from. And America was just like, no, it was called Clue. They probably didn't have Ludo in the first place. I don't think maybe they did or certainly didn't call it that. Maybe it was just frustration. Just called Clue there.
Starting point is 01:01:28 Yeah. And famously made into a movie. I fucking love that film. Now that was a movie way before its time in terms of being based on something
Starting point is 01:01:36 that wasn't a novel or, you know, it was based on a game. It was a bit of a risk. You based it on a board game. It was based on Risk, was it? The game Risk.
Starting point is 01:01:50 I've really lost it, man. I've lost my capacity so it's a good film and if you haven't seen clue with tim curry and uh katherine ahara and mike mckean mckean and a fucking awesome cast heart heart leslie ann warren hartnell hartnell william hartnell from doctor who no who's that guy committed suicide a couple of years ago what do you mean who Hartnell. Hartnell? William Hartnell from Doctor Who? No. Who was that guy who committed suicide a couple of years ago? What? What do you mean, who? The guy off SNL who committed suicide a couple of years ago. Mate, do we have to talk about dark shit like that?
Starting point is 01:02:14 I'm just saying that he was in Clue, wasn't he? No! Are you sure? Yes. That guy was in Clue who committed suicide? What are you fucking talking about? I think I'll be borne out by the facts here, Paul. I mean, I'm happy to find out, but it's not a big cast.
Starting point is 01:02:29 Don't find out. Who is it? Which character did he play? Did he play one of them? No. Mike McKean, Tim Curry. Mike McKean's from Spinal Tap. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:02:40 Yeah, it wasn't him. No, it's not. And Christopher Lloyd's in it as well. He plays Mustard. Christopher Lloyd? No, it wasn't him. No, it's not. And Christopher Lloyd's in it as well. He plays Mustard. Christopher Lloyd? No, he plays Plum. And Catherine O'Hara. And the actress I can't remember the name of right now, but she was in Private Benjamin.
Starting point is 01:02:51 Madeline Kahn? No, Madeline Kahn isn't. She's dead. No. Anyway, I like Cluedo. And I've got a lot of versions of the game. I've got Junior Cluedo, Cluedo. I've got Super Challenge Cluedo.
Starting point is 01:03:02 Wow, what's Super Challenge Cluedo? Basically, every card, murder card, you know, because there's always a person, a place, Cluedo. I've got Super Challenge Cluedo. Wow, what's Super Challenge Cluedo? Basically, every card, murder card, because there's always a person, a place, and a weapon. That's the three things that we're trying to discover? Yeah. These were different in that each corner had a colour and a number. So you put it into a little slot, and you have to lift up the thing.
Starting point is 01:03:19 This was like a code-breaking game. Okay. So if you got zero, pink. Like Mastermind, remember that? Yeah, a little bit like that. Zero, pink, yellow, five. You'd go, oh, then I know that? Yeah, a little bit like that. Zero, Pink, Yellow, Five. You'd go, oh, then I know that's Colonel Mustard because that's the code for that card.
Starting point is 01:03:29 It's like Sudoku. It wasn't great, but I remember being quite fond of it. And then I got a deluxe version of Cluedo where it was posh and it came in a big box of drawers and things. Was that nice? Yeah. And I've been after this Cluedo for a while because it's hard to get out. What is this version of Cluedo that we're going to be playing today, Paul? It's called Cluedo SFX
Starting point is 01:03:46 or in America, Cluedo FX. Do you remember that film, FX? I do, with Brian Dennehy. Is he dead? Oh, I love it when Paul is literally discouraged. I just want to play Cluedo and this is cool. Well, fuck Cluedo. I don't know if I can follow the rules, Paul, because I'll tell you what, listener.
Starting point is 01:04:07 We had a little session where you tried to explain it to me before we started recording this bit, and bloody hell, I'm confused. It's not that hard to follow. I don't know what I'm doing. In Cluedo, you roll a dice. You've got to be in a room to look at the thing and do the thing and do the accusation, right? Get rid of all of that. You just jump to the rooms.
Starting point is 01:04:21 There's no dice rolling aspect. No. They've taken that out. Completely taken it out, which speeds the game up considerably. Yeah, because you just have to the rooms. There's no dice rolling aspect. No. They've taken that out. Completely taken it out, which speeds the game up considerably. Yeah, because you just have to... Like normal Cluedo, through elimination and deduction, you've got to figure out
Starting point is 01:04:31 what three cards are left in that little wallet. Yes. And that is the murder weapon, the place that was murdered, and the person who did it. The murderer. The murderer, right?
Starting point is 01:04:40 And you can only do that by the process of elimination, by looking at other players' cards and the hidden cards. Not deduction. Don't use deduction cards to some extent it's just eliminations no deduction
Starting point is 01:04:48 yeah but you could maybe go oh maybe you could have a guess could you yes like on guess who yes you could just go right I'm going to go out on a limb here
Starting point is 01:04:54 yeah before you've deducted them all take a big leap into the unknown and risk it all for glory yeah is that like something that people do yeah risk
Starting point is 01:05:01 whisk risk risk couldn't form a risk keep talking keep talking keep talking keep talking they said keep talking here's the idea cludo sfx is an elaborate version it's got a computer in it it says it's not quite that i am the computer the idea is is that you move your little character piece around these wonderfully little moulded figurines on little stands, to
Starting point is 01:05:28 different parts of the board. Quite well moulded. Yeah. And you can see pictures of this on our website. www.thecheapshow.co.uk Right? You move it straight to the room directly, you press it down on the symbol that represents that room, in this case, Horseshoe is the stable. You click it down, and then the little machine understands where you are, and goes Ah, you're in the barn you see mrs white if you see miss i'm
Starting point is 01:05:50 gonna actually hear that am i yeah because i've got a speaker on it all right yeah okay so activate it right i'm gonna just i need i've got these cards well wait we haven't started yet until you start and then you can look for your cards and delete them. All right? I want to just give it a quick breakdown. Once you go into the stable, in this instance... It's got a nice facade of the house. It's got a 3D house. It's got a 3D house. Simple to put together.
Starting point is 01:06:12 That hides the computer at the back. It's just behind the back. Ah, I see. Yeah, it hides a little software. It's quite snazzy, really. It's nice. So, you only play as four characters. Lord Grey, you're, what, Miss Scarlet or something like that.
Starting point is 01:06:24 I try as Miss Scarlet. And there's Miss Peach, and then Lord Raja or something like that. I try as Miss Scarlet. And there's Miss Peach and then Lord Raja or something daft. The blue Raja his character is. Anyway, so you're clean as a whistle. It will not be you.
Starting point is 01:06:31 You're on the case. But as usual, you've got to meet Professor Plum, Colonel Mustard. But it's got to be one that isn't either of us then. It can't be either of us.
Starting point is 01:06:40 We aren't represented in the other cards. How many characters are there? Four in all. So it's a maximum of four players in this game. But then if it's, if we've got four players, then who's going to murder?
Starting point is 01:06:48 It can't be any of them. One of these guys. It's either Reverend Green, Colonel Mustard, Professor Plum, Miss Scarlet, Miss Peacock, Rusty, the gardener, Miss Meadowbrook, a new character, and Mrs. White. One of these are the murderer, right? And they're hiding around the house
Starting point is 01:07:04 and you won't know where they are until you land on that part of the room and activate it. If it says Mrs. White's Okay. One of these are the murderer, right? Right. And they're hiding around the house and you won't know where they are until you land on that part of the room and activate it. Okay. If it says Mrs. White's in that room, you can look in her card, look at her clue in the wallet and then cross it off.
Starting point is 01:07:13 Yeah? Look in her wallet. Try to fucking explain the rules. Yeah, I got it. Then, before your go ends, you can do one of two things. You can either ask me, like normal Cluedo,
Starting point is 01:07:22 do you have Mrs. White in the kitchen? Do you have Mrs. White in the kitchen? With the wheelbarrow. With the wheelbarrow? And if I have one, I'll show you you have Mrs. White in the kitchen with the wheelbarrow? With the wheelbarrow. And if I have one, I'll show you it. Is the wheelbarrow actually one of them? No.
Starting point is 01:07:30 No. You're confusing me now. Just shut up. Right? Or if you don't want to ask me, you can press the search button on the computer. Press the search button on the computer. And it will tell you if anyone's lurking or there's another clue. What would it say?
Starting point is 01:07:42 They're lurking. Yeah. And there's another clue. Yeah. And there's lots of characters in this. They're all voiced. And there's actors. It's would it say? They're lurking. Yeah. And there's another clue. Yeah. And there's lots of characters in this. They're all voiced. And there's actors. It's great.
Starting point is 01:07:48 Tick these off. Let's tick off our cards first and then we'll activate the computer, yeah? All right. So, all right, let me just see how I'm getting on because the case is afoot. I mustn't show you, though.
Starting point is 01:07:59 No, I can't know because otherwise I'll just find out what you've got then what I've got and then I know what's left. So when it's got people, I just tick it off on the suspects? Yeah, completely cross it off. The whole row? Just the name, because you might meet them in the game, right?
Starting point is 01:08:13 Just cross off the name? Yeah, because you know it's not that person. What? I don't understand why you don't get this. I don't get it. I'm crossing off the name. Then why are there all those tick boxes next to it? Because there you can tick them off if you go into the garden and meet Professor Plum and you look
Starting point is 01:08:27 at his card and it says you can tick it off because you've seen him. Yeah, but what if I've already crossed him off? Let's just do it bit by bit, right? Fuck me. Have you never played Cluedo? I did, but it must have been about five or something. So what if it's a place? Just tick the whole place off. Just cross it off.
Starting point is 01:08:43 You can go there in the game, but you know it's not that thing. Okay. Right? Fucking unbelievable. Seriously. I've got it now. I'm doing it. Yeah, but I've never...
