Pappy's Flatshare - Series 6, Episode 5 (Wash The Car)
Episode Date: May 1, 2016Liam Williams and Barry From Watford are present and occasionally correct as the teams battle over who has to wash the car. In the ensuing scramble we learn a lot about some famous Bens, encounter a n...ovel take on two famous novels and try to help a junior doctor who may or may not be breaking the hippocratic oath. We'd love it if you'd help us bring Flatshare Slamdown to the masses, one sector of society at a time. Accordingly, this episode would be a good one to play on loudspeakers through the windows of any novellists, junior doctors or people called Ben you know. Thanks! Hosted on Acast.

I've gotten trouble with this in the past.

Apparently it's fine to write, clean me on the back of a van.
It's not fine to write, clean me on the back of a van driver.
Wow.
Now, okay.
That got got lovely laugh
What's but not after the joke? No?
We'll fix that in post
Tights out that pause
What are you gonna do is we're not only gonna nip out the science gonna nip out the punchline?
Oh god for that. Well, I mean
Punchline is a very kind
Oh my god for that. Well I mean, I think that punchline is a very kind turn of phrase for what that actually was.
A lovely bit of business there.
Thank you very much.
It's happening.
I don't know.
But I mean, there's literally everything to play for it.
I know.
Tom.
I lost a lot of confidence in my answer.
Do you know what?
I think you're absolutely right.
I tell you what, Clarke's was gold. They're just a bad crowd.
LAUGHTER
I think that's what it is. I'm not going to clean the car Matthew
because I was taught how to clean cars by Mr. Myaggy.
Oh yes.
Yes, he taught me his method Waxon Wax Off
and I tried to follow that method
but let me tell you, 25 candles later.
LAUGHTER
That's it, that's it.
Because I burn wax candles onto Mr Maggie's car.
He drives the Ford Fiesta.
There's times have been hard.
For Mr. Myaget.
A humble caretaker.
Not just times have been hard.
Tom, yes.
You brought along with you this week.
Well, let me tell you, the jamboree is in trouble.
The jamboree that we've run is in trouble.
We've been infested by mice and pigeons,
but help is a hand because we've got a bird of prey
to come in and tackle our pest problems.
And my guest is the falconer,
who looks after the bird of prey.
It's the one and only Liam Williams is here.
Liam Williams is here.
Liam Williams.
APPLAUSE Hello, Liam. How'd you think the starboard
for us? Is that all being the star? Yeah. It had to high points and low points.
What were your highlights on the starboard? There was so much of it.
Oh look, well let's not dwell on that. So thanks very much for coming into our flat this month.
What kind of a flatmate are you, Liam?
Are you a good flatmate, you're a bad flatmate?
Well, my last girlfriend, I think,
decreed that I was a bad flatmate.
What did you do that was that I'm not going to say
what did you cause the break up with your relationship?
But what did you do that upset your girlfriend?
I think there was a...
That's the same question.
It's the same question.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
But I think one's domestic habits and romantic appeal
are often the same thing, right?
So like, I never dealt with the things that she wanted
dealing with in the house, this shower doesn't work,
and hasn't for forever.
Yeah.
There are no cupboard doors.
I could go on, but she didn't want to.
Did you live in an IKEA showroom?
It's a good point though, why do we have cupboard doors?
I mean, they're just in the way, aren't they?
You want a cupboard?
Well, if you know the etymology of cupboard,
which everybody has cupboard,
it's back there, I've got a cupboard board.
It was just a board, Do you hang your cups?
And at some point, the idea got made to court
and got some ice to it.
I placed it in there.
Yes.
It's like they're like cup wardrobes now.
LAUGHTER
Yeah, it's a class of bit of a fucking...
They're like cup cupboards now.
Yeah, yeah, exactly that.
Yes, yes.
Well, Clark, I've seen this you've chipped in.
Who have you brought along with you this week?
I brought along my uncle Barry from Watford!
Barry from Watford is here!
Barry from Watford is great to have you here Barry.
Nice to be here.

My mother.
I know, one of them never knows such thing.
You're sharing a flat.
Back in them, don't you have to be married and also.
No, no, no, no, no, no.
You know, to be in the same flat as someone you have to apply to the parish priest,
you have to be escorted
round by a party. Supply to the council to be along with someone in the same
flat. Really if you want you better off getting married really. So you got married
after a lot of sort of paperwork? Yeah well if you've seen her you know it was purely for the enough of a set of
love feelings.
I've been out to fill in the form to have a license for her in natural fair, from the past
office, you know.
I'm so sorry it's not an attractive lady to look at then.
Queen's re-roars mate.
Sorry, sorry.
Jesus Christ.
I'm not going to discuss the relationship so we've already found that out from Liam. You've been very personal. at them. Queens be rules mate. Sorry, sorry. Jesus Christ. Just not good at discussing
relationship. So we've already found that out from Liam, you know that.
Very personal. Very personal. I want to turn this into Pears Morgan's real lives. I
mean I'm already an asshole. So we're 50% of the way there. Well obviously you can't
watch the Citroën solo, so it's lucky you've brought to your, in fact I don't know why
I said Citroën solo, it's Citroën saxo so it's lucky you've brought to your... In fact, I don't know why I said Citroën solo.
Citroën saxo, it's lucky you've brought your guests.
We've met our guests. We're now ready to play Round 1!
I work at a car wash.
It is the same car wash that they sing about in that song
The popular song about a car wash but I have got a problem
I am the only person who works in the car wash Who is not funky at all
I do not like funk music I don't do disco dancing
I keep myself to myself And do a lot of cleaning
The others are all dancing
Like they are in a disco
So I just do the cleaning
All day
At the car wash Working at the car wash, working at the car wash, yeah.
Thinking about the car wash, working at the car wash, yeah.
Ah, ah.
Ah, lovely.
Woo!
Very moving.
You brought us all to the verge of losing.
We wanted to have a high energy.
I know.
Is there real somber mood?
Let's talk about failed relationships again.
So round one, this month is must say these bends.
We just slow that down. That deserves a lot more. So round one, this month is must say these bends. Uh, I...
Can we just slow that down? That deserves a lot more.
Yes, it's must say these bends.
It's to play on the name of the popular car, the Citroen Saxon.
Now, I mean, if you didn't enjoy that, you might as well leave now,
because...
Don't give them the option, please, don't give them the option.
We might five each other, we had a little brink cuddle, must say these bends.
Hell of a day in the weather space.
They all blur into one tommy, tommy, tommy, tommy, tommy, tommy.
The rules are very simple, I'm going to give each contestant a famous bend and their
teammate has one minute to ask as many yes or no questions as they can to determine who it is.
At the end of the minute, the question asker must say the name of the Ben.
They literally must say that Ben.
Okay, so we're probably enough we're going to start with Ben Clark.
Here's your Ben Ben.
Barry, you have one minute to ask as many questions as you like to find out who the Ben is.
Your time begins.
Now, is it Ben Elton?
No, all right, so do we just stop the game very quickly?
Sorry, I'm just...
Just very quickly, I'm just...
I just said a feeling.
I mean, is that a role?
You sort of bent the rules ever since, lately.
I would love it if it would be Ben Elton.
If it's been Ben Elton, I'd have to stop bombs would be Ben Elton. So, Bob's off for the rest of time.
So sorry, I'm starting.
I'm barring till it's five minutes.
I do think it's...
Please don't worry, but it's questions about who they are,
what they try to do.
60 guesses in a minute.
Thank you, Bob.
Because the judges are you're going to guess all of them in that, right?
Well listen, my, I don't mind not ever minutes.
I've got to find a guess.
I've got to find a guess.
It's the way he there's no more time.
And your minutes does now.
Is this man famous for producing rice?
No.
Okay.
Did this man, you know,
career round an arena be pulled by horses on the chalice.
No.
Is this man, well, he's quite an attractive man?
Did he do bit of mountaineering?
The lady's like a middle class lady at Krannam.
And is her name rhymes with Bokehaw. LAUGHTER
It's your line.
Yes, he's alive, yes.
Ten seconds.
So, so far, we know he's alive.
I think he's not Ben Elton.
Is it Ben Johnson, the drug's cheat?
No, that is your time, I Fred. It's not Ben Johnson.
I'll throw it over to the other team.
Liam, any educated guesses based on him being alive?
No.
Which I reveal to you at what, should I?
You're like another guy if you lie.
I mean, you've sort of done your minute, Barry.
Yeah, probably. Don't overdo it.
I don't want to.
I think you can't have too much of a good thing. You can't. You you can have too much of a good thing
Yeah, we're probably going with the answer
Yeah, we'll just hear the answer that shall we
Then would you like to tell us it was better that it's come about of course
You were very close
You're really honing in on him. I can't find anything to run with combat.
That's a problem. That's the shame because that's round two.
It's a real shame.
Okay, now it's Tom's turn. Tom, that's your bend there.
I've just passed that to you. Now Liam, you need to work out which bend it is.
And you have one minute, your time begins.
Now.

I'm afraid of Aztec Ben.
Aztec Ben.
Ben is making me nostalgic for the Crystal Maze.
It was an Aztec Ben.
He might have been a Victorian Ben.
I feel like I might have jiggled you there.
I know. I feel a bit jiggled.
Well, I'll tell you what, if you've got any idea leave.
I don't know any Victorian Bens. Is it... I'm a little bit jiggered, you know. I feel a bit jiggered, mate. Well, I'll tell you what, if you've got any idea,
I don't know any Victorian bends, I don't know.
Is it Benjamin, Desraile?
No.
Oh, nice.
No, I guess they're no.
It was, of course, Benjamin Franklin.
Oh, it's not Victorian, really.
Not really.
It's Benjamin Franklin Victorian? No.
No, because he's American.
I'm very Anglo-centric.
That's our problem. That's our problem.
Well, what a good guy.
Yeah.
I think we're discovering the flaws of the game as we play it now.
Oh, wait, a funny game, isn't it though?
It's a funny one. It's a funny one, but it's a good's just a game. It's not funny and it's not good to know.
It's what we're just gathering.
Just out of interest, how long is this gonna go off?
Oh, you're a train, haven't you?
You gotta get a train.
Well, yeah, I'd say it's a train.
I haven't really.
I just, I don't see a guy in there.
Really?
Barry, it's gonna go off for a couple more rounds on the train.
Yeah, I'd say here's your Ben Barry. and Ben is going to guess, and you get exactly
one minute.
And yeah, absolutely.
I've seen a lot of these videos.
Okay, okay.
Off you go.
Is he in video games?
No, it's not.

Is he in a drama?
Could be.
Is it a comedy? Is it a specific genre of television?
Yes.
Okay. Drama. Oh, it a specific genre of television? Yes. Okay, drama.
Oh, it's very difficult.
Comedy?
No.
Period drama.
No.
That is your time, I'm afraid.
Oh, god.
Any idea it might be?
Is it Bend over?
No, not.
Not the porn star and father of Tiger Drew,
honey from Outnumbered.
No, it's not.
I worked with him, really, he was was absolutely joy. I thought I recognised you. No, it wasn't. Well, it was mentioned already.
Yes, it was. You kind of alluded to him already. It was, no, it was of the savoury rice
fame. It was Uncle Ben. It was Uncle Ben. So, Ben, so close, so close. Okay, so the final round of this, Liam and Tom, your minutes begins.
Now, do you like this bend?
Yeah.
Would you hang out with him?
Yeah, we don't often, but I would like to.
If you were having a dinner party, would he be in your top 10?
No.
What?
Has this bend ever made you feel something?
Yes.
Um, emotion.
Yeah.
Um, recently?
Relatively recently.
Have you watched this bed?
Yep.
Uh, before?
Yep.
Live?
Uh, did you applaud him?
Yeah.
Did you chant his name? I don't think I've chanted his name.
Have you seen him more than once live?
Yeah. Is it the kind of event where you'd buy a program?
No.
Do you perform like two hours?
Yeah.
Would you mark him 8 out of 10 or like good performance?
Not always, but sometimes.
Sometimes.
Okay, that's the time.
That's the time.
Have you got any idea who they spend might be at the end of this minute?
Erm...
Ben, don't...
It's true, you never buy a program.
Ben, don't do.
He doesn't so much do live performances.
I used to be a musical, Ben.
He's got a musical aspect to him, sure.
Penny and the Jets.
As in the song by Elton John.
Yeah, the artist Elton John, Tom,
but I thought I'd creep up on you.
Ben Elton John.
It's actually, yeah, do you want to join a guest?
You have a guest.
Is it me?
Yeah. It is you. Yay!
Yay!
Yay!
So you've made Liam feel something, but you're not in his top 10.
Can I?
Can I ask a question?
Because that was a little bit ambiguous, Liam.
Was that your top 10 dinner party guest?
Or did you answer that as your top 10 bans?
I think we've got to, I've got to, before that one's the top.
When you were asking is he in your top 10?
Were you thinking is he in your top 10 bans or is he in your top 10 bans? Top 10 Benz. I've got to... For that one's the top. When you were asking is he in your top 10?
When you think is he in your top 10 Benz or is he in your top 10...
Top 10 Pappies.
Right, well, at the end of that round, let's turn to everybody's favourite Ben.
No offense, Ben.
Producer Ben.
Producer Ben, one of the scores.
One team has one point to that team is Ben and Barry.
Ben and Barry of the scores. One team has one point and that team is Ben and Barry. Ben and Barry have one point.
Now, so Ben and Barry are creeping out ahead like a Citroen saxo,
but there's still everything to play for.
As we make a handbrake turn into round two, it's flat games.
Yay!
Let's play together.
Gaze!
Let's play forever.
Roll the dice, spin that thing.
Put that down.
Who is your toll? Gaze! Let's play forever, roll the dice, spin that thing, put that down
Who is your toll? Games, if you lose you get nothing
Games, if you win you get gold, gold, gold, gold
Listen to that BBC 3, the youth run board
That's the sound coming from the streets!
That's the sound of an online sensation!
That, my friends, is a hashtag.
Oh God.
So this week in Black Games, it's pronounced gold.
This week we'll play in a version of Pictionary, which we are calling Fictionary. I'm going to give each team a scenario from my heart.
I wish it was Dictionary.
Oh no, that's not true.
That's a word.
I mean, go on.
I'm so happy.
Oh my God.
I tell you what, I'm literally citing a book about words.
I'm up for playing it, though, Tom.
Basically, I'm going to give you a word beginning with B.
You get 20 questions to find out.
Here's how we actually play.
I'm going to give each of you a scenario from a famous work of fiction,
and you have to play that out.
But there is a twist.
Every line of the scene must start with a consecutive letter of the alphabet.
So I'm going to give points for literary integrity, drama, performance and knowledge of your ABCs.
So we're going to start with Tom and Liam.
One of you must kick off the scene with a line beginning with a letter A and the other must respond with a line beginning with B and C and so on.
All clear? Absolutely.
Oh!
Happy you started already.
Okay, now your scene is from the Lord of the Rings.
Popular book and film The Lord of the Rings,
and it's the scene where Gandalf tells Frodo
that he has to take the ring out of the shire.
Now, do you want to give you up the part?
Who do you think is going to be Gandalf
and who's going to be Frodo there?
If we're going on a height, then I'm Gandalf.
If we're going on a height, then I'm Gandalf. If we're going on wisdom.
LAUGHTER
And Tom is Gandalf, yes.
You say you're saying you know what a dictionary is.
I do think you've got a wise hold.
Gandalf. I think I could do Gandalf voices.
Yeah, and you've got the beard.
You've got the beard.
Oh, thank you.
It's not a compliment, but it's literally a fact.
You probably have a beard.
Right, so your Gandalf, your son.
Your son is from Lord of the Rings and it's Gandalf
telling Frodo to take the ring out of the shire off you go.
Hello.
Blind me!
Your wise. Blimey! You're wise! Kukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukuk as a joys. F*** it out.
Go!
Have a bloody day.
I know I tell you again.
Just give me a second, alright?
Kids today.
Oh man!
No!
Please!
Quickly! Please! Please! Please!
Quickly!
Quickly!
Not a hell.
A hard point to bury for this is to thank you.
Really, really!
Super, quickly!
Tell me how quickly!
You got to go really quickly.
Very, very quickly.
Whizz.
Extremely wizzy. Yep.
Oh, he's fall asleep nearly at the scene, amazing.
Amazing, well, that was absolutely superb.
I'm going to give Liam 12 points for that, and Tom, I'm going to give Liam 12 points for that and Tom I'm going to give you 14 points
Congratulations very high point scoring there for you to you to out of out of 100 each so
So now is the turn of Ben and Barry your work of fiction Ben and Barry is your work of fiction, Ben and Barry, is pride and prejudice. Outgum, and it is Mr. Darcy's failed proposal to Elizabeth Bennett.
So, Barry, do you see yourself more as a Mr. Darcy or more as a Lizzie Bennett?
Er, I think really I have more of a Darcy.
You certainly are.
I'd like you to play the scene out now for us.
There's been a little twist this time.
I would like each line to start with the letter
which ended the previous line.
God, you have that big sense, okay?
A little bit more.
Oh, yeah, yeah.
Now we're done.
Oh, god.
Okay.
And I'll give you a carte blanche to start the first line.
So off you go.

Yes.
Of course, Darsie! Yes. Of course, Darsie.
You should, perhaps, spend an afternoon walking in the meadows with me, aren't you?
You know what? I might give it a swerve.
Everyone says it.
I don't know why. Well, I mean, you're a...
I have a nice ear.
Eh?
How would you like to, you know, jump up on the back of the ocean?
I'll take you for the gallant down the south-downs.

Every time, I get a little horse with with a man this seems to happen
now I've had enough of this
okay fair enough, lovely
and Clarky you were slightly cheating there weren't you because Brian and
Pregidis is your favorite book and you're always quoting that line no do you
know what I'll give it a swerve
you're always quoting yeah it's do you know what I'll give it a swirl? You're always quoting, yeah. It's a classic line. That was absolutely wonderful.
I'm gonna give Ben a 10 points, but I'm gonna give Barry 15 points now.
Thank you.
Wow.
So, Pajuita, I could have listened to that all day.
Oh, should we have a bit more? No.
Okay.
Pajuita, Ben, what are the scores? Oh, top of the name, we've got 26, but Barry and Ben have got 26 and a half!
Yes!
Very, very, very close.

Now we turn from the letters of the alphabet to the letter of the law as we play Beat Brothers.
Whoa!
You've got a problem, I'm calling a problem,
If you've got a problem call it a beat.
If you've got a beat, maybe we can help you beat from the zoning I can beat.
Yes, it's Beat Brothers, where each week we ask how to...
We should release a single. We should release that as a single. People love that tune. Not a day goes by when people don't come up to me in the spoons and say, that is a great song.
It's true actually, we are always getting bothered by people in the spoons.
That is a great song, but could you please stop singing it or at least buy something?
So it is beef brothers this and each month we ask our panelists to sort out a flat-shared
based beef and this one comes from Matt who is in the audience.
Matt, are you there?
Oh!
Matt writes, my flatmate loves her job.
It's all she talks about.
She's obsessed with it.
I don't care. I don't listen.
I now try and avoid asking her how her day was just so I don't have to listen to her.
We both do the same job.
Whoa!
That is a great twist in the tail at the end of that there, Matt.
Rugg Paul. That's an absolute Rugg Paul. Now Tom, is it Matt Knight Shiawala?
Am I right?
Absolutely right, yes,
yeah, it's great to hear about him again. This podcast is set in 2006. So Tom and Liam, you're
actually on Matt's side, you're on the side of Matt, and Ben and Barry, you're on the side of the
flatmate who loves her job so much, but before we begin, like the good people at Citroen before they allow the
Saxo to roll out a four-course of auto-dinoships around the world, let's have a thorough
examination. Any questions for Matt?
What's the job? Junior Doctor.
Very topical. Very topical. So you both keep your turn up.
Bloody strike, mate.
Yeah.
Right?
Yeah.
Come on, finger on the pull for the nation.
Yeah, you're a very popular anti-doctor angle.
Everyone seems to be into these days.
Yeah, it does, mate.
Give out your jobs and stuff.
And my next one is, can I ask?
Can I ask?
Yes. How are you? Yes, are you with the
farm? A house special, sort of thing. Yeah, I walk in the hospital, yeah, that's right.
No, just try and listen. Who are they letting in through medical school?
I'm not letting anybody, apparently anybody.
Try and listen, put the black card down with two minutes. Move a teapot to the left, everyone goes on strike.
No, the point is, are you in the same hospital as your flatmate?
Oh, we are in the same hospital, yes.
Would you like to reveal the name of that hospital?
I probably shouldn't.
Go on then.
But it's somewhere north, somewhere...
Away.
...to the field hospital.
Correct. How many hours a week do you work? Two, mate. Nor. It is somewhere... Away. She feels hospital. Shit.
Correct.
How many hours a week do you work?
Two many.
I'm trying... I'm going to be your depends lawyer in the room.
You're on your side, mate.
Is this why the negotiations with...
Still, I'm thinking about.
I mean, I could go into it, but I don't think that's very funny.
Well, just to see how many hours. So, 50 to 60.
That's a lot.
That's a lot.
That's a lot.
So you come home after a long shift,
and then she just bangs on about it all the time.
Yes.
And how much detail?
Like gross detail?
Like, she tells me.
She tells me all about her patients,
everything that she's done,
or the deep thing her supervisor's done,
and I just don't care.
Mac, can I ask you, though, like from from doctors to doctor does that break the hypocritical if you're talking about it?
Because it could actually be a genuine legal situation we're in here brilliant
I'm sorry. This is what I've trained for exactly
Five years in the making this is basically doing doing a podcast a bit like going to law school.
So now officially you are a trained lawyer.
So talk us through, you sat there, you want to watch like a box set or something?
I just want to make dinner, but she's there just jabbering on about people dying.
I'm just like, I just want to roast some potatoes.
Did she try it?
Did she try to make dinner with a scalpel?
Like that.
Did she try and bring the work home?
Oh no, she's not a surgeon.
She's a house character, so she's standing there.
Like, how's that?
Wow.
We're into the politics of doctors here.
She's not a surgeon.
What's a house character?
Oh, a cute, lowie guy.
He stands there and he's all clever.
Oh, so he's got like no-o.
There's ticks and stuff.
She's got like a limp.
They come, they come, they come to her with problems
and she has to sort it out.
That's what doctors are.
So that's what doctors are.
What is addiction-ry?
We are learning tonight.
Tonight's podcast is brought to you by the letter D.
Three days.
Marry any questions?
My question to you is, does she have a fellow or maybe she's trying to get into it with you talk about important things?
It's not a talk about a word. You're the one she wants to share things, it's a big thing for me. So there were two points to that.
Number one, she has a boyfriend with whom she will be moving in with. Number two, I'm gay.
Okay, and she knows that. She knows that, and yet still she jabbers on a bad day.
I'm already told you, I don't want to hear about your work, I'm gay. All right? How many times do I have to tell you?
I'm not gay, you are gay. I believe I have to tell you? I'm not in gay, you're in gay.
I believe that's enough information.
So let's call upon Liam Williams. Now remember Liam, you're on mat side. You have one minute
to begin the case for the prosecution and your minute begins now.
We all know the intense and immense pressure that our junior doctors are under. And I assume
most of us are...
Is it...
Is it supposed to be a comedy thing, right?
No, you could do it.
It's a bit late in the day, it's done.
Yeah, changing the nature of the podcast, I tell you.
I'm trying to move in a new direction as an artist,
and this is a good...
This is great.
It's a safe space for you to work your part in.
Unless you're Tom and Ben.
We see a certain presentation of them in the media and government rhetoric suggest that
they're grasping desperate characters who should respect that they've got a job to do
and shut up and put up.
But we see in Matt's case clear evidence of the way that work always leaks into one's
home life.
His housemate comes home, he comes home, and somehow
there's not enough pastoral care, there's not enough kind of psychological comfort provided during the
working week for them to deal with the immensely difficult things they must see. There's no escape
from it, so not only do they have to work 50, 60 hours a week, they have to come home, try and cook
a bit of dinner and still somehow psychologically they're confronted with these hardships and these o'r gweithio'r gweithio yn gweithio yn gweithio yn gweithio yn gweithio yn gweithio yn gweithio yn gweithio yn gweithio yn gweithio yn gweithio yn gweithio yn gweithio yn gweithio yn gweithio yn gweithio yn gweithio yn gweithio yn gweithio yn gweithio yn gweithio yn gweithio yn gweithio yn gweithio yn gweithio yn gweithio yn gweithio yn gweithio yn gweithio yn gweithio yn gweithio yn gweithio yn gweithio yn gweithio yn gweithio yn gweithio yn gweithio yn gweithio yn gweithio yn gweithio yn gweithio yn gweithio yn gweithio yn gweithio yn gweithio yn gweithio yn gweithio yn gweithio yn gweithio yn gweithio yn gweithio yn gweithio yn gweithio yn gweithio yn gweithio yn gweithio yn gweithio yn gweithio yn gweithio yn gweithio yn gweithio yn gweithio yn gweithio yn gweithio yn gweithio yn gweithio yn gweithio yn gweithio yn gweithio yn gweithio yn gweithio yn gweithio yn gweithio yn gweithio yn gweithio yn gweithio yn gweithio yn gweithio yn gweithio yn gweithio yn gweithio yn gweithio yn gweithio yn gweithio yn gweithio yn gweithio yn gweithio yn Let them out. Oh nice. Very moving. Very moving. Well, I mean, obviously the courtroom is no place for sentiment, but that was extremely
moving.
And it's not gone unnoticed.
Barry, your minute begins now.
Ladies and gentlemen of the jury, you sat here tonight.
Not laugh very much, but you've listened very simply.
To Matt.
Now Matt spoke very eloquently, rather loudly if we're honest, but why are you looking at
me?
About the pressures of a doctor working in, let's call it a hospital north of here.
He was unspecific about what he did, but what he did do was bemoan the lot of the
junior doctor. He talked about his flatmate, someone who old phone, you know, presumably
after someone uproar, something like that. But I got three words for you you kindly bedside
Yeah, I can't remember
Manor kindly bedside manner five seconds and I'm telling you that this fella wants to remember the manner
In which he speaks to people
Very good max let's throw back over to you. How do you think it's going so far? Well I think I have a reasonable bedside banner. Okay so time are you quite
straight to the point as a doctor? My kind of doctor just goes it's this babam babam, babam, you're dying. Hella, you're not. It's all you want.
I would get airy-fairy stuff.
Hemorrhoids.
Yeah.
Oh, you're these.
Wait, sorry.
Can I just ask, who's the airy-fairy doctor in that?
No, no, no, no, airy-fairy stuff.
He just says hemorrhoid that makes the sound of an explosion.
So Tom, you're going to conclude the case for the prosecution.
So you'll be started by Liam. Yes. But are you going to be doing it as yourself? No, I'm going to do it in the
style of a Southern defence lawyer from a John Grisham novel, okay? Mr. Fanchor Stanton.
Mr. Fanchor Stanton, presiding. And indeed providing. Your minute begins. Ladies and gentlemen, after chewy.
Hell, I'm looking at some of you now.
You heard some big words there today.
New fellas over there, we've dared jog in medicine.
Plasters!
Inside.
We round here, we be simple folk.
We're not concerned with dad dad know their hospital talk
Junior doctor
Apple doctor, that's what we want
Hey walking their little child big shoes
And a little blank I'm sorry
And a little blank. I'm sorry.
Round, then we're gonna get this spatula, but...
What?
Point is round here.
We be hardworking for.
Okay, right now.
Yeah.
I've seen you there from the bakery day.
Johnny Shushack.
I ironically works in the butcher's.
Let me tell you a little story there.
Now, man, couldn't his hair.
Could it so short?
Couldn't see his hair really well.
Strange fella.
When they talk to him about this, man through his head,
said, what'd you do for a living?
He said, I'm not gonna boy with that.
Now I like this style.
You know what I'm talking about.
No further questions.
Oh my God.
Well, that was something else there.
I didn't say much.
It's a factual right.
Tonight.
I mean, he's always saying very close to a breakdown,
but I think he may have gone mad days to say.
On man overboard.
Yeah.
So to conclude the case for the fence, Ben, your minute begins now.
Now, yes, that's what I said.
I'd be the first to say, I don't have a huge amount
of experience in this particular field.
And by that, I I mean having a job.
Or for that matter, doctors.
But from what I understand, it is a lot of fun.
And you would want to tell all your friends about it.
My main frame of reference there is mainly the TV show Scrubs.
It looks like a laugh a minute.
Of course, you're going to come home and tell your flatmate about your funny boss,
who's cranky, and then the other one who's funny because he does...
I'm sure you're thinking about it do it. I'm not going to be able to do it.
I'm not going to be able to do it.
I'm not going to be able to do it.
I'm not going to be able to do it.
I'm not going to be able to do it.
I'm not going to be able to do it.
I'm not going to be able to do it.
I'm not going to be able to do it.
I'm not going to be able to do it. I'm not going to be able to do it. I'm not going to be timely takedown of the TV show Scrubs, I'd say. Buh-buh.
Next up, Friend.
I just fuckers have had it too good for too long.
Clarke, you're like a human E4.
Very exciting.
Yeah, that's what I do in my days.
Yeah.
So sadly, I'm too preoccupied with my own turbulent personal life to make a decision,
so tonight that honour is going to go to our Phoenix audience
So if you think that Liam and Fan Shaw and therefore Matt is in the right, applaud now
Alright, okay, well if you think that Ben and Barry and therefore Matt's flatmate is in the right applaud now
in the Ben and Barry and therefore Matt's flatmate is in the right, applaud now.
Oh!
Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh!
Not even a bright one!
Oh! This is like a...
This is like the people versus objects.
Oh my god.
It really was, wasn't it?
Because it led you along, you thought,
oh, this is gonna go one way.
And it really was unbelievable.
Who knew people still love scrubs so much?
Yeah.
All for me.
Well, yeah, he certainly had the last breath.
LAUGHTER
Well, if you like puns, don't worry, the next round is for you.
So unfortunately, that is all we've got time for this week.
Especially unfortunate, as we've got most of the shows still to go. Not least the quick, far round jingle. Let's have a little dot-time and then
have been up to this week. This is the quick fire route
It's the round that goes really quickly
Literally, today it's going
It's about 20 miles an hour.
We're in the car because we're here to tell you
that we are going to do the quick fire
and we thought we'd record it Whilst we're driving
Oh, I thought you were a giant
In many ways with a podcast equivalent
Of Jerry Seinfeld or James Corden. You decide which one we are.
It's Manipede Seinfeld.
Oh, anyway, we might have to go pretty soon. Pretty soon Cos Ben's guitar neck is hanging out the window
He nearly just
Clip to transit fan bringing you the quick far out
Oh, that's the education. This is the sleepover.
It's so fast.
I accelerate into speed bumps.
It's a nasty habit.
I picked up, well, you guys enjoy the quick fire.
No, no. Quick fire Raaaaaaah No! No!
See, it's my right of way
Wow! Very good! Very very good! Very scary!
Of course in this quick fire round all the questions we can't base Ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo car bike. Just for the record his number plate was R754 JKR.
Useful in old Ilisner. So if it comes to an insurance claim, remember it was their fault
as we bring you this, the quick fire.
Oh!
Lovely work and two points on the license.
And of course, in this quick fire round,
all the questions will be car-based.
But instead of buzzers, if you think you have the right answer,
shout out your first name.
Tom and Liam, let's hear that now.
Liam... Tom.
Very nice, Ben and Barry.
Ben, but...well, Barry.
Okay, off we go.
What wonderful car can be used to stuff a turkey?
What is this?
What is this? What are we doing?
Oh, hey.
OK, right, sorry.
I can't explain.
So basically, basically in this we do a series of puns,
style, so we sort of set up the pun and then use,
give us the pun.
And don't overthink it.
I think it's the key thing.
So Pac-Paxel for the first one. Well, yeah.
Sitra, sitra, sitra, sitra, Pacso. I had to buy myself 30 seconds.
Yeah, you did.
You're so, I'll take a back seat.
It's very, very good.
Wow, bloody hell.
Very good two points that you see. You're very suited to funny little puns, but you spend
all your time being miserable
and talking about politics.
If only...
Liam, if you slapped on a smile and did a few little silly dances,
I honestly think you can have our career.

I'm going to give you a point each there.
Oh, the dashboard.
Yes, what is that?
This is dash.
This is dash.
I'm going to give you one third of a point, I think, for that.
I mean, you sold it, but it wasn't a joke, and that's something we do.
So, a bit more generic now to take us home.
What vehicle can you buy for five-peer Tesco?
Uh, uh, uh.

Yes.
I mean, basically what I wanted to do is just ease you into the final one,
which is this one.
What vehicle? Carbagodin junior?
Oh!
It's not the answer I was looking for, it's actually Carle Vorderman.
But still, I'm going to give you five points for Carbagodin junior nevertheless.
So, that is the end of a quick fire round.
Before we hear the final scores, there is just time for plugs.
Is there anything you would like to plug?
The only yes.
I do actually, I don't know if you guys have liked me, but...
LAUGHTER
I wouldn't usually plug stuff, but I'm suddenly quite skinned,
and I'm going to make money in the near term,
so I'm trying to be more forthright in my stuff.
I've sent up a theatre and comedy company called Fights in the Dog.co.uk.
It's our website.
I've got a play on an Edinburgh called Travesty.
I've got a web series on the internet called

That's probably enough.
That's great.
That's probably too much.
That's plenty.
Thanks, guys.
Focus on one thing and do it well.
LAUGHTER
Oh my God. Oh my God Tom, no you've got support
Liam's business panel, I've got no money, I'll do a web series.
