The Ricky Gervais Show / An Idiot Abroad - Xfm S2E30 (March 15, 2003)
Episode Date: September 4, 2022With the second series of ‘’The Office’’ complete, Gervais, Merchant, and Pilkington returned to XFM in August of 2002 to resume their 2-hour Saturday afternoon broadcasts. Though Pilkington...’s name was still not being used in promotional materials, the format mainly centered on his contributions with Gervais and Merchant mostly reacting to the various things Karl said and did, a format that would endure through the remainder of the radio broadcasts and podcasts, concluding in 2012.This was the longest stretch of XFM shows, running 51 weeks until August 2003 when Gervais and Merchant again went on hiatus, this time to record the Christmas Special (finale) for ‘’The Office’’.During the year, Pilkington introduced many of the show’s most notable segments including “ Monkey News”, “Rockbusters”, “Songs of Phrase”, and “The Film Thing”, among others. Karl grew increasingly frustrated with Ricky’s antagonism toward him throughout the year, and over the final few shows, suggested he did not want to continue on. Gervais and Merchant repeatedly said on air they would not return if Pilkington didn’t agree to remain with the show.

One when it was windy. Why did you have time off because it was windy? But to be
honest Carve that lasted for seven years? Your time off at school. Why did you have time off

Well, my mom just said,

I'm not coming in today, I might get blown into the road.
Oh God. The funny thing it was, right, Steve, they had this thing going out of school

And that's one of the signs I was off ill.
Yeah.
But that wasn't even ill. Yeah, it's a bit different when you're... To be honest with you, Carl, you can't just not turn up because you've got a bit of a cold
or you're a bit fed up.
I mean, we had an appointment 4 o'clock Thursday, wasn't it?

them all the new great features we've come up with in the time you're off.
All right, well we'll, we've got the film thing still going.
Yeah.
That's where you take a lead role or a major role in a Hollywood blockbuster which we then
give away on VHS worth 699.
And something new we're trying out because Rockbusters...
He's dead, thankfully, yes.
It's gone for a bit.
It's over. Crosswords.'s dead thankfully yes. He's gone for a bit. It's over.
Um, crosswords.
Oh, this sounds intriguing. Where'd you get the idea from?
What's the basic format of this?
Right, what I've done is I've, um, take like a popular saying from the show.
A popular what? A popular saying, something that crops up quite a lot in the show. In our show? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

Yeah. Yeah. First thing that sprang to mine was, there's this airy Chinese kid. Oh, classic.
But more commonly it would be something like Carl, you're an idiot. Yeah, Carl you're a fool.
Oh, what did you mean? You let us down again? Yeah. Car what have you been here? Yeah. Oh, lie down! Typical phrases like that, sure.
Carl, you're a loser.
Oh yeah.
Right.
And what I've done, I've got a load of different songs and took words from the different
songs and then join them together to make, there's this hairy Chinese kid, and then
people have to email in and say what the five songs were. It sounds like the most most th. th. th. th Have you heard any of this Rick? Because I've not heard this at all, I'm not familiar with this?
Well all it is, it'd go like,
Oh, Chinese kid! And that's from sort of four different songs. And you've got to identify the songs?
Right. Wow. How many songs in this car? Five. There's the price is? th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. the th. th. the th. the th. th. thi. thi. th. th. th. th. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

So, what are the prizes for that?
Are these the prizes?
Yeah.
All right, well let me tell you what they are.
Not too bad, actually.
We've got Live Forever, which I assume is a CD that ties in with this new film.
Think of that!
A well-known phrase from the world? There is no other radio show in the world. Like this is... Go on. If you've just tuned in, I mean what do you think? If you've just tuned
in, going one known phrase from Shur, Erie Chinese King. Oh yeah, classic.
They'll be playing that in Chiragin' this Christmas. So yeah, this is a CD that ties in with this new film live forever which is all about Britopopop their their their their th. It th. It th. It th.

We've up to it, we've up the bigger league, you're, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, th, th, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th..

rockbusters is gone.
I think they're still behind us.
So we've got film, you appear in a film, we've got cross words.
How is that to do with the crossword?
Because I've got words and sort of cross them.
Okay.
Right.
So words, we're playing a game called Words. Word Song. Hello and welcome to Word Song.
And obviously I imagine there'll be some more great music.
But we've got a new feature, haven't we?
Which one's this?
Are we doing within the Monkey News, the new feature?
Oh, Steve. I'm excited. You know Monkey News is my favorite feature, so what have you added added to? Explain it. Right, well,
there's been loads of stuff going on in the past few weeks, right? But for the times when I struggle, when sort of monkeys have had a quiet week, and there isn't that much news going on,
right? Come up with this thing. I sort of speak to an expert, I've spoke to him already. You spoke to an expert, a monkey expert.
Yeah, uh-huh.
And I ask him a question.
Wow.
Right?
The feature, it's got a good name, you know,
that's the way I work.
Yeah.
Cheap as chimps.
Right.
And what I do, I asked them a question about, you know, how much does it cost to, you know, keep one, how much does it cost
to, you know, feed one for a week, all this sort of stuff. So I give out like a
monkey story and if that isn't enough for people, they'll also learn something else at
the end of it. Right. So like... It sounds fascinating, can I say right now?
Yeah. That's just some of the things that we've come up with. Play a record, that, that, that, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like th th th th th th th th th thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, just some of the things that we've come up with. Play a record, Carl. Please still continue to listen there.
Yeah.
Bib, come on, come on, da.
Richard Ashcroft, buying in bottles, an XFM 104.
Ricky Murchaseen, Carl Pilkington.
Carl, I need the phone number of your girlfriend.
Let me explain why. I was lucky enough, once again, to be on your quiz team this week.
Ricky...
Still to beat me. He's still to beat me with his team.
We...
Second I came.
We, we, uh, we, we, the gang here and some friends, we sometimes get into a pub quiz in the local area and I was
very nicely, I was invited by Carl to be on his team.
Twice now I've been on that team, Ricky's always on another team.
And I, what can I say, Carl? Do you mind me saying this now?
Because I've analyzed the team and it's very much your team and you've put the team together, you've recruited some excellent personnel, your girlfriend's very, very good on the team, as is one of her work colleagues
and you normally bring in, you know, someone like myself. I like to think I'm providing
something with the entertainment section. I seem to remember last time I answered at least six or seven questions that other people had, so I felt like the today's, to provide, I've, I've, I've, to, to, to provide, to provide, to provide, to provide, and I'm, and I'm, and I'm, and I'm, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, throwne, throwne, throwne, throwne, throwne, throwne, throwne, throwne, thrown, thrown, thrown, thrown, thrown, thrown, thrown, thrown, thr, thr, thr, thr, thr, thr, thr, thr, thr, thr, thr, thr, the, thr, the, thr, the, the, thr, thr, thr, thr, and, and, thr, and, and, and, thr, and, and, thrown, and, and, and, thrown, and, thrown, and, and, thrown, thrown, throwne, bleshoot companies. I see why you are not winning ever and it's a rather pricey contest isn't it? It costs a
tenor to enter a person and unless you get in the top three you're not you're
not going to get to see your money back so I think you're going to maybe
need to step down from the team because I'm not sure manager, but frankly I'm not sure you're providing enough. Right. See this is funny because as bad as I imagine you are, I don't think Steve would
make it into my team so he's getting a bit cockier. I want to know what your opinion of him because
he's told me he's great on it. Well you're bang out of order first of all. Okay. Do you have a good night when you're with us. I tell you what I wish I'd to you. I'd to to you. I'd to have the to have the to have the to have. I'd the the the to have. I'd to have. I'd the the to have. Do. Do. Do. Do. Do to have to have to have to have to have a to have a good. Do the the to have a good. Do. Do. Do their. Do. Do. Do. Do. Do. Do. Do. Do. Do. Do. Do. Do. Do. Do. Do. Do. Do. Do. Do. Do. Do. Do. Do. Do. Do. Do. Do. Do. Do. Do. Do. Do. Do. Do. Do. Do. Do. Do.

I th. I th? I tell you what, I wish I had lost a tenor every time I've come down. That would have improved it. You point out there about the football analogy. Alex
Ferguson, when did he score a goal? Right. He doesn't, he tells the others how to do it.
Right? That's my role in it. He doesn't take up one of the 11. No exactly. It's not like you can only field 10 again. I want to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be the to be the to be the the other to be to be to be the other to be the other the other to be the other the other the other the other the other the other the other the other the other the other the other the other the other the other the other the other the other the other the other the other the other the other the other the other the other the other the other the other the other the other the other the other the other the other the other the other the other the other the other the other the other the other the other the other the other the other the other to be to be to be th. I th. I tho. I thoooooooooooooooooooooooooooo o' the. I the. I the. I the. I the other the other take up one of the 11 though does he? No exactly. It's not like you can only field 10 because we only got 10 again, I want to be in the 11. Exactly, he stopped running
around in midfield, falling over. Yeah, shouting, oh what have I told you? Yeah. No.
Right. I'll admit, right? And there's a limit of five players, we should explain that. Yeah, that's the point. Yeah, there's only five. There's only five. It was only five. It's only five. It's only five. It's only five. It's only five. It's only five. the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the limit. the limit. the the limit. the the the the the the to. to. to. to. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

It's only. It's only. It's only. the the the the the the the the the the the the team. Yeah but it was pretty tricky on Tuesday though when it was one of the tougher...
Tell everyone the one question you got right. It was something about...
Well tell us the answer, the two words you had to say to get the answer.
Danny Minogue. That was what you provided, Danny Minogue.
Is this valuable as Donsi Setsky or 1. Because there was at least two of us who also knew the answer. Oh well he did. We gave it. We gave it. He didn't provide any. No, exactly. We gave
it to Carl. We'd massage his ego. But I just feel, I just feel, I'm a little, I feel
a bit bad now because I just sort of either had a crushed face then. Can I just tell you right? He just can't believe. the right. He the right. He's just can't believe. He's can't believe. He's the right. the right. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. to be. to to be. to to to. to. to. to. to. to. to to to to. to me. to me. It's. It's. He's. He. He. He. He. He. He.

He's that precious fifth position that is not being filled at the moment I think consistently enough by a decent player
right you've got a solid team I'm thinking if you want to remain on the team you
are gonna have to pull your finger out and find a fifth member that is
going to provide and I'll tell you where the weaknesses are I can't
tell you right're going to have
to step down because I don't think I can be on a team where he potentially loses ten
pounds. There are visible deficiencies in your team. That's you know the team. That's 10 pounds. That's 10 pounds. That's 10 pounds. That's that's that's that's that's that's th. That's th. That's th. That's th. That's th. I. I. I. I's th. I's th. I's th. I's th. I's th. I'm not th. I'm not th. I'm not th. I'm not th. I'm not th. I'm not thi. I'm thi. I'm thi. I'm thi. I'm thi. I'm thi.

Don't bring that back. Don't bring up that story. He doesn't like wasting
money Carl. You know that. What do you think? What do you think? What's the solution?
We've got to be, we've got chat before and we have a bit of fun.
But there was other things on my mind.
I can't do that here.
I don't know why.
I don't know why.

I the the the the the the th th th th th th th the th th th th th th th th the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the tho. tho tho tho tho tho tho tho th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. the th. the the the is the is the is the is the is the is the is the is the is the is the is the is the the the the the the the the the the to to to to the toe toeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeat the the the the the gay fellow in there. Gay fellow in the toilet. Now, how could you tell? How did you know? Just typical, you know, everything about it, right?
Right? Oh, large hand of my moustache. Leather cap. But, but not reflect the views of the management of XFM or me and Steve. Or most of the people in this country.
Go on, go on, Carl.
What's your problem?
Yeah, but this is what I'm worried about really, but this is why I only got Danny Monogre,
right?
Because this was floating around my mind.
She's a big gal toe.
Go into the toilet. like men's cubicle and they have women's cubicle. Now without standing out of order, is
it wrong for me to think gay men should have their own little cubicle.
Come in! They should have their own, well not cubicle, you mean an actual toilet I suppose.
When I was at the urinal, normally you know there's a fellow there and you go all right.
And there's no pressure. But I couldn't go, I couldn't go I was thinking should I wait if I go into the toilet it'll look obvious yeah I had loads of pressure and this
was going on I'm sorry what were you concerned about I'm so sorry right
listen when I was a kid when I was a kid right and it's all right for you to go
into women's toilets when you're kid it's like oh it's a bit cute as as long as you'd not like over 15 their th I th I th I their I their I their I their I th I their I their I th I th I th I th I th I th I th I th th I'm th th th th th th th is th is th is th is th is th is th th thus the the. th to to to to to to to to to to th is th is th is th is th is th is th is th is th is th is th is th is th is th is th is th is th th th th th th th th th th th is th th is th th is th is th is th is th is th is th is th is th is th is the the the the the the the the to the to to to to to to to to to to to to to when they use their little cubicles, they don't shut the door. Some of them just sit
down on the toilet, right? And you see everything. And...
No, seriously, that's probably one of the first times I saw like a woman. Yeah.
That, right. I mean, Auntonora when she was staying over.
What happened with your Aunt Inora? She was, um, she's into wearing caftans. You know,
caftans. Oh, yeah. What are caftans? Big, bellowy sort of dresses. Right, right.
And, uh, yeah. I used to sit on the floor at home in front of the tele. Sure. She was on the chair behind. She did a bit a bit of of of of of of of of of of of of of of of of of of of of of of of of of of of of of of a sort of of of of a sort of a sort of a sort of a sort of a sort of a sort of a sort of a sort of a sort of a sort of a sort of a sort of a sort of a sort of a sort of a sort of a sort of a sort of a sort of a sort of a the the their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their th. th. th. th. th. th. th. What th. th. th. th. th. th. th. What th. th. What th. th. What th. What th. What th front of the tele. Sure. She was on the chair behind.
She did a bit of a sort of a Sharon Stone scene.
Oh God.
Yeah.
Did you see it?
There was no underwear?
No.
What age were you? What was it like?
What age were you?
He's like a ripped tennis?
What?
Right, we're off air. We're off air.
Either that will put something for the sonnets.
Yeah, that's how I'm living.
That's how I'm living.
Yeah, what's called hip-hoop.
Yeah, what's called hip?
Good point, yeah.
Go make me a cup of coffee or something.
Well, before you do that, can I just qualify something?
I'm a little bit concerned about your toilet discussion.
What exactly is your point again?
I'm just a bit bemused.
You see, it's a tricky one.
All I'm saying is right, there was, that's a pub quiz.
I go to not thinking about anything. I try to go, right? He's a little gay fellow next to
me. I love this little gay fella. Now, the weird thing is, there's nothing stopping him
having a little glance, right, because he's allowed in the fellow's toilet. Yeah. Now I'm
not allowed to go into the woman's toilet and have a little, have a little look round. Right. So all I'm saying is should they have another
toilet area? What for gay people? Yeah. And so this would be gay men and
lesbians? Is that going to complicate things? I mean I can only assume, I mean
to ask you a question right? If you're intimidated that's, I mean that
that's a shame but you know most gay men aren't
looking at your knob you know that what do you mean I can only say that 99.9% of
gay men who use a urinal standing next to what they assume as a heterosexual man
aren't looking at his knob.
And what they're doing then?
They're actually in their bladder.
No, but the thing is you...I can't talk politics for a girl.
You're saying like, you know, about would you have one toilet for lesbian, women,
and gay fellas, right? Well does that be weird? Would it be mixed? Would it be, would it have a man and a woman?
Would it have a man and one, that's petatrection men, one little picture of a woman and the
other and then what would be? And then what would happen is, you'd get people who were going,
oh, a man and a to this a bit.
What pretend to be gay?
And yeah, you know, sort of grow a moustache and shave their head.
And pretend to be a lesbian.
Right.
Right.
Right.
Yeah, so, I see.
So, you know, people pretending.
So, this is fine. Four cubicles.
How many toilets do we need at the moment? Every pubs now got four toilets? Oh, because they're interested in everything, aren't they?
Because a little bisexual fellow would be looking at your knob.
Right, with them, what you do, you just have a door, you open it and there's one urinal there, so you can't get a cue.
They have to sort of wait.
They have to sort of wait.
Well, why they just be a thing a thing between the urinals? So anyone, no one can look at anyone else's not.
Wait a minute, wait a minute, wait a minute.
Just to go back to Rick's point, what stops, even if we've got the toilet for gay men, what
stops the gay men who want to have a look at your willie, going in the regular toilet
and pretending that they're straight?
Most thi. Who their head. They don't have a tattoo. There's no branding yet in the British house where they have to declare. So we're going to have to expand this so we've all got to carry
identity codes. Do you know you can see a guy can you come in a mile off? Can't know?
No, I'll just hold it in next time? No, no, no. Can you tell gay men? Do you know a gay man? probably if you did like a if you lined some people up yeah and said point
them out I reckon I'd get but hold on we're not talking about people dressed in
leather with the ass cut out and an handle by a mustache yeah we're talking
about you know that every day non-seen yeah but I mean suppose I put you in a
room and there was 10 naked men, right? No.
And there's five gay men and five heads up.
Could you walk along that line looking at those gay...
Am I naked?
No, you don't have to be naked.
Why would you have to be naked?
To catch him out.
Play a record!
How would you catch the note?
No, don't go into it.
Don't go into it.

The thrills, one horse town on XFM 104.
Rickage base, Steve Merchant and Carl Pilkington.
Now, Carl Pilkington is getting ready.
It's the start of a new... on XFM 104.9, Ricky Jovey, Steve Merchant and Carl Pilkington. Now Carl Pilkington is
getting ready. It's the start of a new strand in the show, a new quiz, a new competition
to replace rockbusters. Now that's quite a tall order, but what have you done? Right. Like
like I said, right, if you've only just tuned in, what it is, I've took, and I'll be taking,
a well-known saying every week from the show, something that crops up a lot.
First one that sprang to mind was...
There's a little gay fella standing next to me in the urnal? That's next week.
Okay. This week, there's this airy Chinese kid, right? That's cro crops up quite a lot. Sweeping the nation. Right? So what I've done,
I've got five songs and I've edited them together to make that saying. You've got words from
songs where any part of that sentence occurs to recreate it. Now what do they need to do?
Do they need to say what the song is? Just the five songs? I mean I was going to say song and artist but if you want just the song. th. th. th. th. th. th. So th. th. So th. So the th. So th. So the the th. So the th. So th the th. So th th th. So th. So th. So th. So th. tho tho tho tho tho tho tho tho tho th. th. th. th and I th and I th and I th and I th and I th and I th. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. And they're they're they're they're they're they they they they they they they they they they they they're they're they're they're they're their their their their their their their their their the. So. So. So. So. So. So, the. So, the. So, theate. So. So, the. So, the. So. So, the. So, the. So. So, they're they're they're the five songs? I mean I was going to say song and artist but if
you want just the song. So five there's five things there and if someone doesn't
get all five it's still worth emailing in because we might give it to the
one who's got the most and then. Can I suggest we go for artist rather than
song only because sometimes it's quite tricky to get a song
tile or sometimes it's it's more it's very th it's not quite what you think it is so maybe artist is an easier one. Are you happy with that car which is your competition? I mean Steve
always does this whenever I come up with an idea. Oh yeah I just trying to make
sure it's just the best it can be Carl yeah yeah no he came up with a few
games show and Steve is no good and Carl's said fact that you said to me, Steve, I've come up with the best game show ever, it's called Cheapest Chimps.
What's the idea, I don't know, I just like the name, it's something to do with Chimps.
I thought, well, I'm not sure that that's the best, the best game show ever. And what is the other people people will people people people people people people people people people people that that's, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I that, I that, I th.

He flits, doesn't he, from one side to the next Carl, though one thing,
we may argue, mate, but at least we're consistent. Ricky Javais, flipping from one side to the other,
one day's on Carl's side. When was the last time Steve a good thing? Well, did you see us? Yeah, I saw you struggling in the in Carl's office earlier. He was punching my legs to release me
were on the floor and I was squeezing him with my mighty legs, wasn't I, Carl? It was like, I imagine
that's what a crab feels like when an octopus has got it. We were playing that, we were playing that, weren't we? So, there it is that, th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th th th th th th th th thin thi thi thin, thi, thi, thin, thin, thin, thin, th th the. th the. the. the. the. the. th. th. th. th. th.

and she went, he got me these because she had those little woolen gloves on, I laughed,
because I thought she was joking, Carl.
That's what she wanted.
I've told you before about buying presents.
Does those gloves have your namesown in them? And a piece of string that ran over the back
of your duffel coat? You know I've never been into getting presents and that I had the
problem at that Christmas one, that time with the Victoria Plum. Yeah, we'd hate to bring that back. We've done that. Because you talked about the book, because it's kind kind kind kind kind kind kind kind kind kind, the, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, does, does tho, does tho, does tho, does those those those those those those those those those those those those those those those those those those, does th, those, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th those, th those, th those, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, thooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooos-a, thooosa, thoosa, thoos-'d hate to bring that back. We've done that. Because you talked about the, because it's kind of to do with your dad, isn't it?
He's a very bad gift buyer, is that the problem?
Well yeah, my dad's, I mean my dad just wouldn't bother.
It was my mom who sort of made an effort and she sort of worked at half of what I wanted,
then she left to get it off someone to get off to get off to get off someone to get off someone to get off someone to get off someone to get off someone someone someone someone someone someone someone someone heavily or violent abuse, right? But here's what he's been left with and scarred for parents
is bad gift buying. Yeah, and the Victoria Plum incident. In the great scheme of things in the world,
that's not a bad thing to have, is it? There was this, this is what it's like about getting
presents and stuff right? With with my mom and dad go on the mate Colin right yeah no Colin Bailey oh yeah he had a little
Sinclair Spectrum right computer which was like the thing to have at that time
you saw he's go around to his house the deal was not one you got to play
through the window because you won't know that's another lad. This is a different lad and the deal was he came to our house
and my ma'am gave him a pie and then I'd go around to his and I'd stay there for a few
hours playing you know, hungry orris and stuff like that on it. Right? Now, my mom and dad
knew that I really wanted one of these computers, right? So I waited about a year. Came around to Christmas Day I thought, they bought me the the the their me their me their me their me their me their me their me th me th me th me th me that that that that that that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's th. that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's.

Turned out, they bought me the wrong one, they bought me a ZX81 instead of a spectrum,
right? And Christmas Day, I'm there trying to load the games up, it's not working, I'm thinking, what's wrong?
And the thing with me when I was a kid I used to get quite agitated quite easy.
This is the moment.
Right?
I found out that he needed a rampac to make it work, right?
Looking in the thing and it's saying, and make sure you put your rampack in the back.
And I was like, oh, where's the rampack?
I mean, Dad's going, I don't know, I've got you the main bit, that's it. So, was that wound
up, I just was sick, right? Just sick, oh I didn't feel sick or anything, I just was like,
oh God, went to the sink, just sick, because it was that on edge about it. I said, come on, we've got to get one, and my dad's like, Tandy's shut, we're not going to get anything today tod. tod, we're tod, we're tod, we're tod, we're tod, we're tod, we're today, we're th. thin, we're thin, we're today, we're just, thi, thi, thi, thi, I'm just like, I'm just just just just just just just, that's that's just like, I'm just like, I'm just like, I'm just, just, just, just, just just, just, I'm just, just just, I's just, I's just, I's just, I's just, I's just, I's just, I.

Oh, okay.
What do you mean I can't play frogger?
Oh, no.
So, um, there wasn't there another incident when you threw up?
Spontaneously threw up.
Through sheer anxiety.
Oh, I do get it. I've relaxed a bit, but as a kid I used to be quite on edge all the time with certain things.
Do you think that's what happened to your cat?
The wind kept being sick, that it didn't get the food it wanted and it just threw up.
Do you remember that?
Yeah, yeah.
God, so they shaved it.
Yeah, but again, youing about the cat. Your mother once told you not to go to school because it was windy, Carl.
It was not a normal upbringing.
The cat was being sick so she shaved it, so it was easier to clean.
Well, my mom and dad went on holiday, right?
And I stayed at the Rosses in the house, I had a lot of energy as a kid.
What the Rosses did, they had this cat that was dead violent, the most violent sort of
angry cat I have ever witnessed.
A tiger?
It was, honestly Steve, if it was bigger it would have been because it was just always having
to go at you.
If you went to part on the head, it went to bite you and stuff and what they used to do with it to stop me running around I'd sort of be running around and then I'd get a bit tired and
they'd say I have a lie down on the city so I'd lie down on the city and I'd
nod off and what they used to do I'd wake up and I've put the cat on me
right so I'd be scared to move because it's like it's gonna get me the they to to to to to to the the the the the the to the the the the the the the the the they they they they they they they to they they to to to to to to to to to to to to they I'd to to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to they I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I'd they I I'd they I'd they I'd they I'd they I'd they I'd they I'd try try I'd try try I'd try try try I'd try try I'd try try to to to to to to to to to. But it would keep you there? It kept me
there and it used to sort of slavour on me and they'd sort of you know go out
or whatever and I'll be lying there. That's not normal is it?
Carl, sorry were you created by the brother's grin from one of their fairy tales? What kind of life is that? What kind of life is that? A cat paperweight to keep car in place?

to weigh him down. Be careful. Your mom probably told him that it's a windy day. You've got
to kept some of heavy on him. Otherwise he just gets blown into the road. God.
Bless him. Carl, let's just hear your thing once more. Give you people a final chance.
All right, here we go. H. This is all this I need

Can't stop the spirits when I need you.
This life is more than just a read through.
Ooh, those chili peppers are quite hot.
Can't stop XFM 104.
I'm Ricky Joveys.
With me Steve Matchin and Carl Pilkerton.
Carl, you know what the time is?
Bong.
Monkey News.
Yeah.
Uh, right.
Imagine if Trevor McDonald started like this.
Yeah. There's been a lot of stuff going on on that with monkeys.
Oh yeah. I've also, I was mentioning earlier, we sort of making the groacher, the feature grow a bit, right?
So I'm thinking, I haven't told you Steve either. I've actually been asked to write a thing about monkeys.
A poem? No, no for a magazine called Something Apes. Right.
They want me to do like a column, 500 words.
About monkeys? Anything. What are you going to write?
Don't I? You know, think about it.
Well give the type of wire. I can't when it's changed me eventually. Yeah. You could write about that? Well, you don't? No, no? No, no? No, no? No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. No, no.

Yeah.
You could write about that?
Why don't you write about that?
You don't, the fact that you don't believe it?
You don't believe that an infinite number of monkeys could type because you want
Shakespeare?
Because you reckon most of their spelling, exactly. It wouldn't happen. You're the, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, the, the, th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th.

found a load of monkeys somewhere. This is brilliant. I mean imagine this if this was news. Go on.
Where? Somewhere? I think it was in...
17th century? Uh, it doesn't matter that bit, right?
Okay. Find a load of monkeys that are having a good chat.
Go on.
They're having a good chat, all right.
But if our monkeys that can talk, about, they've worked out, they've got about 534 different words that they're using.
To like have a chat about stuff.
More than you? Yeah, what are they chat about then? Just, you know, things that that that that monkeys that that monkeys that that that monkeys that that that monkeys that that that that that that that are that monkeys that are that are that monkeys that are that monkeys that are that monkeys that are that are that are that are that are that are that are that are that are that are that are that are that are that are that are that are that are that are that are that are that are that are that are that are that are that are that are that are that are that are that are that are that are that are that are that are that are that are that are that are that are that are that are that are that are that are that are that are that are that are that are that are that are that monkeys that monkeys that monkeys that monkeys that monkeys that monkeys that monkeys that monkeys that monkeys that monkeys that monkeys that monkeys that monkeys that monkeys that monkeys that monkeys that monkeys that are that are that monkeys that are that are that are that are that are that are that are that are that are that are that they're using to like have a chat about.

right yeah but did you see how well do they taught them they taught them
they taught they taught them themselves this language yeah where Not sign language. It's in some jungle somewhere. They found these monkeys.
He heard some, you know, some explorers over there cutting through the woods and that.
And he heard his name and he saw, that's what, he went, what do you want, it wasn't

No, it's not weird, it's not true.
Right, come on, what's next?
Well, what I'm thinking, I mean, that did happen.
So, well.
Um, and to sort of add to that feature.
That's not true.
We're doing cheapest chimps. Right. Can I just say now to the audience, if you thought that rock buster, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I'm, I, I, I, I mean, I mean, I mean, I, that, that, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I did, I, I did, I, I, I, I, I did, I, I did, I did, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, did did did did did didthought that that piece of rubbish earlier about the Chinese hairy kid was... I'm suspecting this is going to be really not very good at all.
I don't, I'm not, I'm just pointing the finger.
What do you think of his negativity car?
It just keeps doing it.
I just don't think you should start with the name of the quiz first.
This is my, this is my only concern.
You come up with cheapest chimps, and now, and now, and now, and now, and now you're trying to construct a game around that and I'm
not sure it's a proper... Well okay let's what is the game let's hear it
right it's about a chimp right? Surprising? I spoke to an expert about them
and who was the expert? Someone at London Zoo okay. How many bananas do you think the
little chimp what they've got at London Zoo eat a day? Right.
How many bananas is a little timp at London Zoo?
Can they call in for this?
No, I'd leave it.
I'm just testing it out on Steve because we've already got an email thing going on here.
So how many bananas do they eat a thii, they'll eat a day?
So how many bananas? How many bananas does it eat a little eat eat eat eat eat eat eat eat eat eat eatthe telly, they peel one, they'll just eat a bit of it and they'll throw it away. We're talking a whole banana?
How many bananas does it eat a day?
Getting angry?
Getting angry?
Getting angry?
Come on.
Well, I'll try and have little monkey per day, over the course of a day I reckon
he probably eats 15 bananas.
All right, Ricky what are you going for?
Little chimp at London Zoo.
But hold on, but presumably they don't only feed it bananas.
So it's, so the question is, how many bananas does it eat?
How many does it get given? It would eat 15 if it was given, but it might be given, so it's, so the question is... It's how many bananas does it eat? Come on Rick!
How many does it get given?
It would eat 15 if it was given 15, but it might be given a one slice of banana, 15 oranges, 200 potatoes and some lettuce.
How many bananas does it eat? Come on?
Five? Five? Five? Yeah. Right. It's only one.
Yeah, because it only gets given one.
Cheap as chimps.
What?
So it's pretty cheap to have a chimp.
Right.
I'm on your side now, Steve.
I don't understand what happened then?
Wait, so at the end of it, you always shout, cheepers chimps?
What, what, that's the that it? Is that it? Was that the first installment
of Cheapers Chimps? We'll have to see what the press say about this. And, and, um, and why does
it only eat one banana? Because it only gets given one banana? Because it only gets given
one banana? Because it only gets given one banana carrots. It would get given a balanced diet.
Cigars. Yeah. So it's just how many do they give it at London Zoo? I look forward to
playing this again.
I'm a man we pay.
Who is he?
Who is he?
What is he?
What is he to you? We have not had any successful answers on your quiz, Carl.
We have not had any successful answers on your quiz, Carl.
We've had people who've got a maximum of four.
That's what you get when you put a duck in a microwave.
Yeah, Bill with us.
All right.
Cheers.
And so I'm not talking about, I'm not talking about cheapest chimps.
That's safe. That's going that's safe, that's going
to run and run.
That's really got legs.
I'm going to check the press Monday, I can only assume it's a triumph.
Exactly, another Pilkington triumph.
Yeah.
I'm going to give the prize, if you don't mind, Carl, to Karen and Jeff Gillian, because they're the the only the only they.... they. they. they. to to to to thap. to thap. thap. thin, I, I, I, I, I, I'. thin, I'. thin, I'm really, I'm really, I'm really, I'm really, I'm really, I'm really, I'.

But they got four today. But they only
got four right. The four is the top answer so should we give the answers now? So
play it Carl and then tell us didn't know the second one. There's this very Chinese kid. So the truth was the Lars.
Last? That's George Harrison. No. That's Philip Banish. And that's Deacon Blue.
Right. So it was it was the last. Yeah. What's the second one?
Strokes? That was very tricky. That is hard.
George Harrison for Airy. That's all I could get. It was Ari. Ari, Christney, yeah. No. Chinese, Phil Bailey. Chinese war is. Yeah. And Deacon Blue,
the real gone kid. There's this hairy Chinese kid. Very, very hard. I love the fact that the normal
bit of that, like the normal bit is like the well-known phrase there's this hairy Chinese kid. Yeah exactly. Like like. I I I I I I I I the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the that is. I I that is. I that is. I that is. I that is. I that that that that that that that that that's.

Like nothing happened there, that's normal. There's this hairy Chinese kid. As a phrase that offers...
In fact, you're right, we must have said that phrase 20 times today.
What, when was the last time that was said 20 times? Never, I don't think it's ever been said
any there. I don't think it's at worst. Definitely not said in China.
Ha ha ha ha ha ha.
The prizes they've won.
The prizes they won. Red Dwarf DVD.
Live Forever the best of Britpop.
Marion and Jeff on VHS and the best of Led Zeppelin.
Well done to Karen and Jeff Gillian.
I've also seen no proof of this airy Chine thi. Alpine stars burning up on XFM 104.
toll-9, Mickage Vos, Steve, Merchant, Carl Pilkington.
Steve, you're out of the room there.
Carl took a phone call from someone.
He's found a cellmate.
Right.
Not a soul mate.
I think one day they will be cellmates.
Because he's just like, he loves everything Carl loves, and he was telling Carl stuff and Carl's face was lighting up. He's told him of two Russian kids in
the circus they're covered in air and their mum towels them off because they're
covered in fleas. Carl said see that annoys me again isn't it? They just they do
something else and the bloke went yeah they should just make money out of being hering and Carl went exactly and he said have you heard the
one the three-legged juggler and the bloke went no what's that he went that
annoys me as well because he thinks they shouldn't have done juggling they
should have done football do you know I mean though Steve what do you mean a
three-legged juggler oh he's a m But the other day I was looking in, I don't know, bizarre magazine or something, right?
And it was this fella who, uh, he had no arms.
Uh, so you saw a picture of him, his job was fixing watches, did it with his feet.
Go on.
Well, it's just why pick the most hardest job to do, when you don't got any hands?
Crushed grapes. Just why pick the most hardest job to do when you don't got any hands?
Crush grapes.
Or, do you know what I mean?
That annoys me.
Oh, crush grapes!
Imagine him being told that he comes into the career's advisory where he goes,
now, what do you want to do, heart grieves?
Uh, make watches? Right, take a look at your arms. Crush grapes mate. Sorry, you're a grape
crusher. Next. Brilliant. Brilliant. I would love you to be a career advisory in some
sort of clinic. It'd be brilliant. I like the fact that it annoys you. Here's a man, he's got no arms.
He's learned to fix watches with his feet. And incredible talent, incredible skill. He's he he he he th. He's th. He's. He's. He's. th. th. th. to. th. to. to. to. to. th. th. to. to. arms, he has learned to fix watches with his feet, an incredible talent,
incredible skill he's utilizing that brilliantly, that's annoying to you, you're angered
by it.
I'm only being honest, now you be honest, right? Your watch is broke, who would you go
to? You're in a rush, you need it fixing in a rush.
Now you need some fresh wine? Be honest.
What's this thing that you've been talking about this video?
Freaks, right. It was a thing that was banned for like 50 years.
I think it's been taken off again, but I don't know why if it's just been deleted, right?
It's a quest. If anyone out there has got a copy of Freaks on DVD or VHS. Can Carl borrow it please? I just, I
mean I almost want to set up a camera to see him watching it. It's absolutely real. They
use people in the circus of the time. I think it's the 20s or 30s of the depression. And there's
people, there's cone heads, there's a bearded lady, all genuine. There's a bloke they call the human slug who's got no arms and no legs, Carl,
and is just there and he rolls a cigarette and lights it with his mouth.
I think I've seen his brother who isn't called the human slug is called the pillow. How did you make a living?
Does anyone want a meat car for money?
The annoying thing was right, there was a picture of him was going to put on our...
I think I've seen his brother.
On our website we've put things up like this, right?
If you go to Ricky.Docchivace at X7.k.k.k.k.k.k.k..k. I was going to thk. I I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I was th. I was th. I was th. I was th. I was th. I was th.

I've. th. th. th. I've. th. I've. I've. I've. I've. I've. I've. I've. we've put things up like this right if you go to Ricky.govase at X-Fend.cold UK forward slash what you put things like that on my website
it's not to do with me I want people to know that that website is not kept
or looked at by me so I don't what have you put on there there's a fellow on
there who's known as the pillow and he's you see I get a bit worried with things like this because we're not sort of having a go or anything, it's just things that fascinate you.
And, yeah, it's a guy, it might, it might be the same sort of thing.
What's your one called?
I bet you used to stare at people with goiters, didn't you, when you were little, in Tesco's.
Or just go, go to XFM. UK forward slash Ricky it is. What's the worst thing you've ever seen on like a
human face? You know you know what it is and I don't want to talk about it I can't
remember. Have you told me? Yeah. What is it? But go not the elephant lady? Go to the
elephant lady you talk about that I don't want to talk about it again.
Go to the website and see the human pillow. Why is he a human pillow? That's what annoyed me. I thought it was more of a draft excluder.
God.
That race all kinds of rules. Buzzcock's Harmony in the Head. Now things are flying here at XFM. People have called
in, there is a video of freaks on the way, Carl's going to see that within the week. That's
exciting. That's exciting for me, do you know what I mean? About our education of Carl.
We started off trying to teach him about science and history and now we just find
he likes pictures of airy Chinese kids and who doesn't who doesn't know true you've got a theory about pictures of freaks haven't you?
uh...
as you say you always bring things up that I don't want to talk about because I'm really
worried that people if you've just tuned in for the first time it's the first time you
hear it and we're talking about every Chinese kids yeah talking about the human... Carl, listen, people don't think that you're taking the piss out of those people.
They lump you in with them.
Do you know what I mean?
They think that you're a freak of nature.
So you can say anything you want.
Do you know what I mean?
Because it's honest, it's from the heart, it's genuine.
So don't worry night that I've just I've got a heart of stone or whatever it is. Why? Because I wasn't crying at comic relief. I know I'll allow us this to say to her,
get out elephant man. Let me watch that for 30 minutes. I'll be crying my art out.
Why? Why? Why do you care about that but not? Because it's that? That is more real, that is more real? That is more real that is more real that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that is more real, that, that is more real, that is more that, that is more that is more that, that, that, that is more that is more that is more that is more is more that is more is more, that is more, that is more, that is more, that is more, that is more, that is more that is more that is more that is more that is more that is more that is more real, that is more real, that is more real, that is more real, that is more real, that is more real, that is more real, that is more real, that is more real, that is more real, that is more real, that is more real, that is more real, that is more real, that is more real, that is more real, that is more real, that is more real, that is more real, that is more real, that is more real, that is more real, that is more real, that is more real in it right? Think of John Merrick. Sorry, sorry, what the film starring John Hurt
is more real than footage of starving people in Africa? No, but what I'm saying is, think
about, see this is why I didn't want to bring it up because people are going to just say...
We're allowed to cry at what you like, people can't have you for not crying someone and cry at them. Imagine, imagine that, like, if you've seen the film, you know, his heads all, you know, messed up
on that.
Yeah.
It's getting picked on all the time.
Yeah.
It's just really, really sad.
Whereas, you know, we're trying to help people.
But you give him a ban and he forgets it.
Do you know what I mean though?
He never forgets Rick. Oh dear. Oh dear.
Oh God.
We're giving away stuff again.
Yeah.
Um, time for...
Tell you a theory about their picture taken.
No, I'd leave it.
No, I'd leave it.
Can I tell you what this is?
Go on quickly. What is it? Right. When he sees a little picture, like in his books he's got, he carries round those
things, right?
And there's like a fellow with a little ed with some like, everybody people.
He goes, the only reason, he must know the only reason they've got to take that picture,
right?
their tho's they's they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they. That's what that's his theory. Yeah, so every picture of a freak they're being... Steve, let me describe the picture to you.
This little fellow with a little head, right?
Play not on the piano.
I've seen it. All his family stood around and mates and that.
When have you ever seen a picture of someone playing the piano and everybody wants to be in on it? Doesn't happen? Maybe it was one the the picture the picture the picture the picture the picture the picture the the picture the the the the the the the the the the the the the th th me me th me th me th me th me th me th me th me th me th me th me th me th me to to to to to to to to to to to to me me me me me me me me me me me me me me me me me me me me me me me me me me me me me me me me me me me me me me me me me me me me me me me me me me me me me me me me me to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to. Let me. Let me. Let me to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to in on it. Doesn't happen. Maybe it was one of those kind of Christmas cards. It wasn't, it wasn't. You could see one of them was like in a rush
to go away, he was probably a plan to go out and he was like, but they were taking a picture.
It's oh I'll be in it then before I go out and it was all, he's out of order. Yeah. Do you know the one I mean? Do you know what about the one? Do you know the one? Do you the one? Do you the one?
