The Ricky Gervais Show / An Idiot Abroad - Xfm S2E32 (March 29, 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.

And what they've got is great Rick, what they've got is lucky. They're loving that they're going
to enjoy that. We have got monkey news. We've got cheap as chimpos simian features. Rick, can I point out of their know a lot of people are making that mistake. A lot of people are thinking that Monkey News is exactly the same as Cheapest Chimps.
It's not.
It's not.
It's not.
It's not the same ballpark, but it's not the same.
They're involved.
They're involved.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Oh, and Mystique are dropping in.
Let's hope the Mystique ladies are coming in.
I want to kick off with a song that is, you know you've got half of those imposing songs
that when you're sort of like between 14 and 18 they were the ones you put on to get ready
to go or just pose around or be that pop star or think you're on stage or whatever
or in the video and embarrassingly I remember that I used to post this like like, to, when when when when when when when when when when when when when when when when when when when when when when when when the the the their.... the the the the their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their the mst.

14 right it's his street life by Roxy Music you used to do mine was
oops upside your head yeah yeah it was just me on the floor in a bedroom
one day I thought one day I felt the other people in this imaginary
post yeah yeah elbowed going everywhere knocking over vases but then I remember that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that th th I th I th I th I th I th I th I th. th. th. th. th. th. th.

I was the. I was the. I, knocking over vases. But then I remember later it was Black Lacey's Superman, which is something similar. Do you
remember that? That was brilliant. Spray, ski. If you were out there in the radio
line got any funny jokes, then call in on it. He made them in because we need some.
Oh. Oh. Street life. Roxy music off the stranded album that's why I used to jump around to.
What would you have been wearing while you were listening to that?
Well, probably Brutus Gold jeans.
Classy.
Um, or green flash pumps.
Sure. Any socks?
Oh, I would have probably been wearing
the shirt my mum got me from Tesco's, which was again a Brutus shirt and it had women in bikinas
eananas on a sheds long. Lots of small ones or just one bit of little small ones yeah so
you know. So, you know, uh, so that was that.
A tropy?
I did my toy.
Did you have a toy with a tropi?
I remember when I was, when I went, I went on a holiday about that time and I said can I buy a jacket and I put his jacket on
and I was frozen on the beets thinking they are all looking at me because I look so good
and I also had a straw Stetson and I really thought yeah I'm turning into quite a man. Yes
I'm quite a cat yeah just thinking they're looking at going who's that dude is he
he is he just come from some sort of rodent?
Wait a minute, I'm in a bikini and I like bananas.
I could be the woman for him.
Oh dear.
What was that?
Didn't you have a t-shirt or jacket, you wore to university that was pretty classy?
Didn't it like some foul language on it or something? What was the... uh... yeah I had uh... when I was uh... this one I was 18, right?
The Christmas, or the birthday before I went to
uh, university got two sweatshirts, one black, one red, I had bullshit on them.
Just done the little about.
And the red one, all my clothes, the first wash, everything was pink shirt,
all my white shirts and socks of course because I just put it in a the white the white the white white white white white white white white white white white white white white white white white white white white white white white white white white white white white white white white white white my white socks of course because I just put it in I didn't know. Yeah. So I was a man at university with all pink clothes except for a rather nice red sweatshirt
with bullshit on it. Oh so again turning into quite a man.
Was that pre or post the time you washed your clothes by getting in the bath and that
was pre? That was the second year when I was in tied to go and digs out of a halls residence so I had a bath bath the the the the the the to to to to to to to to to to to pay to pay to pay to pay to pay to pay to pay to pay to pay to pay to pay to pay to wash to wash to wash to wash to wash to wash to wash their to wash the their to wash. to wash. Was. Was. Was. Was. Was to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be their their their their their their their their their their.... their. their. their. their. their. their. I was. I was. I was. I was a their. I was a their. I was a their. I was a their. I was a their. I was. I was a the. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was a that was the second year when I was in, ty had to go and dig out of a hall's residence so I had a bath and you had to sort of like pay for a bath you know
so I thought two birds of one stone I got in the bath with all my white shirts
because I was going through sort of you know wearing a white shirt and tie that sort of David Sylvia and I was sort of David Sylvey and I just rigged around in it.. and I the the the the same. the the same. the the same. I was just. I was just. I was just. I was just. I was just. I was just th. I was just th. I was just th. I was just th. th. th. th. th. th. thi. thi. thi.

I was just washed myself. It's quite a good exfoliate.
So yeah, I didn't do it again because it was sort of not good for the skin, Dan.
Quite sore is it around the sort of good noise and street life.
Carl? Thoughts?
I just was working out time really. Just, we've got, well last week we had a lot of stuff that we didn't manage to cram in.
Which was good.
So I'm just looking at, we have got Cheapest Chimp's Chimps or Chimps Chimps or Songs of Phrase.
So we have got a new feature, Cheeky Freak of the Week.
Songs of the Week.
Oh, we haven't Freak of the Week. Incidentally, I should just point out now that someone as Ashley Phillips has emailed in
because obviously with songs of phrase, what Carl does for those who have not heard it, he takes
a phrase that you might hear commonly on the show and then he uses very songs.
There's the very Chinese kid.
Was the one we've seen an old bloke eating a Mars bar. And as I say, as I use he the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the th is th is th is th is th is th is th is th is a th is a thus is a thus is a thus is a thus is a th. thus. th. thus. the. th. th. th. that's th. that's that's that's that's that's that's is is that's is that's is that's is that's is that's is th. th. th. C. C. C. C. C. C. C. C. C. C. C. C. C. C. C. C. C. C. C. C. C. C. C. C. C. C. C. C. C. C. C. C. C. C. C. C. C. C. C. the. A the. A. A. C. C. A. A. C. Ssoe. A. A. S. C. S. A. S. t. S. that phrase. And so he has made some suggestions here, Carl.
Because he thinks that the more common, Carl, you're an idiot fool, etc.
Perhaps a little overheard. He'd like to maybe hear, Carl, Paul's, I don't know where to start,
which is a common one from Ricky. Carl, which bit of that do you actually think is true. And then there's the regular dialogue between the three of us.
Carl, well you know it could happen, me, sure, Ricky, no no no Carl it could never happen.
Now not ever you're an idiot player record. So maybe some of those you could use next time.
Well we get it going then for today? This week we're, do you remember the story about my auntie, the their auntie, was it an anti Noraa, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, the the th, th, th, the th, the th, th, th, th, th, the th, th, th, th, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, thin, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, tho, that, 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, th. th. the th. the the the that, that, the that, that, that, that, that, that, they, that, they, they, they, they, they, they, that, do you remember the story about me auntie having win for five minutes?
Yeah? Yeah, yeah, was it? Antinora? She was on a lot of medication and stuff. And I think that's a side effect.
So, yeah, she had win for five minutes. I thought we'd dig that one out. The classic line,
me auntie had win for five minutes. So I've got loads of songs here. And what is that? Me, auntie, had wind wind wind wind wind wind wind wind wind wind wind wind wind wind wind wind wind wind wind wind wind wind wind wind wind wind wind wind wind wind wind wind wind wind wind for wind wind for wind for wind wind. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. to to to to to to to to to to, to? to? to?

And what is that? Me, Auntie, add, wind, four, five minutes, seven tracks.
That's tricky. Why do you learn?
Okay, so you need to identify if you can be bothered the artists.
That's what we're up, isn't it? All right. Okay.
Let's go.
Come on, look.
Win. Okay. Let's tell you. Just remember as many as you can get because the winner was probably be, you know, it gets
five or something. So don't worry if you, there's a couple you can't get because you could
still probably win.
Go on.
Go again.
Go again.
My number as you can't get.
Can I just, can I just, what's the email address?
If they go to X of M.C.C.
They can just send them through there and that.
They can send them through that way.
Which of these is the prize bag?
Yeah, don't we get them mixed up?
That's the one is it, Carl?
All right, so let's see what hot treats you could win.
As I get them out, Carr. Do you want do do do do the th do th do th do th do th do th do th. Do you want th. Do you want th. Do you want th. Do you let's see what hot treats you could win. As I get them out, Carl, do you want to play it once more?
Yep.
M-me-m.
I recognize all them except one.
Yeah?
Right, let me see what we got here.
Oh, once again, Carl, you excelled yourself with an arbitrary collection of DVD. Just hanging around. Again, I'm always interested to know which which th. th. th. th. th. the the the th. to to the to to the to the to the to to the to the the the to the the the to know which which which which which which which which which which which which their their their their their their their to to to to to to to to to to to to to to their their their their their you, their. I, their. I, their. I, their. I, the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the th. If. I the. I tie. I can. M. Man. M. M. M. M. M. M. M. M. M. M. M. M. M. M. M. I. M. M. M. I. M. M. I. Just hanging around were they? Just hanging around.
Again, I'm always interested to know which of our XFM listeners has tastes as broad
as this.
Go on.
We've got the recent BBC adaptation of The Hound of the Baskerville.
Okay, very nice.
We've got, what's this?
Is this the, something involving Air?
The band, the band Air, I think it's a single at best. This is probably worth having, this is the current Flaming Lips album, so you've excelled
yourself there actually, Carl, that's not bad. An X-FM mouse map.
Oh, there is common as muck.
Hold on, that's a... You can and put on eBay for £4.50.
And, uh, Man Alive.
What is that?
Oh, no!
Carl! Don't give that. No one wants that unless it's ironic.
Series 1 and 2 on DVD of popular Northern based sitcom Bread. Buy it, sell it, the game's getting hard
because someone's dealing you a losing card.
They all had to go, all the actors have a line on that song.
Oh, play the clips again. I really want to win it now.
Here we go.
I can't believe this hasn't been done before.
It's extraordinary.
Because most of our ideas have.
Ha ha ha ha. Verve, Lucky Man on XFM 104.9, Ricky Javais, Steve Merchant and Carl Pilkington.
The emails, I should point out, aren't flooding in on the contention.
Nobody always takes time when they go through the website.
Does it? Yeah. So they'll be arriving in a bit.
Do you want to play it once more for those that just joined us?
All right then. Winn, win for five minutes. Brilliant.
My auntie had wind for five minutes.
Brilliant. Genius.
I sometimes get off at the tube at Tottenham Court Road if I want to look at the record
shops before I come into it, XFN.
And I always cut through Chinatang.
And every time I come from Chinatown, the same thought always strikes me.
I always feel like I want to just gather all the little locals, all the little Chinese
fellas, just go around and just go, guys, in what way is this a town?
It's not a town.
It's not a town.
This is not a town.
This is not a town.
This is not a town.
It's not a little pagoda. Yeah, yeah. You can't just call it Chinatown and tell you it's a town.
If I was them though and you do that, I go, I go, what are you talking about?
It is a town, it is a town, it is our town.
It is our town, it is.
It is our town, it is.
It's a town, it's a town. Oh no no no no got a little supermarket with snacks. What does it sell? Snacks.
Specifically I would imagine crackers?
Yeah, yeah. Do you want to buy a dragon?
Do you want to buy an ornamental dragon?
If I want to buy a dragon?
Do you want to buy a gold dragon?
Is it made of gold?
No, it's made of plastic, but it's sprayed gold?
Do you want to London, I genuinely thought Chinatown was going
to be this amazing, like, you know, like, what they've got there is, you'd hear a gong
and do-zoo-zoo!
Yeah, exactly.
And there'd be Rick Shawls and people walking on those little sort of wooden shoes.
You know those ones?
They're brilliant,. It just reminds me of, have you ever been to any of those sort
of museums, you tend to have them up north where they've got like, you've got, you've
sort of sit in a little cart and it sort of rides you through kind of, I don't know, it
might be, um, Newcastle, the Victorian era. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, and then, yeah, can, can, can, can, can. Can, can. Can. Can. Can. Can. Can. Can. Can. Can. Can. Can. Can. Can. Can. Can. Can. Can. Can. Can. Can. Can. Can. Can. Can. Can. Can. Can. Can. Can. Can. Can. Can. the, the, can. Can. Can. Can. Can. Can. Can. Can. the, have. the, have. the, have, have, have, have, have, have, have, have. Have. Have. Have. Have. Have. Have. Have. Have. Have. Have. Have. Have. Have. Have. Have. Have. Have. Have. Have. Have. Have. Have. Have. Have. Have. Have. Have. Have. Have. Have. Have. Have. Have.

Have the, have the, have the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the. Have. Have just be an exhibit. Yeah, yeah. Although their concession to be a hundred years ago is that there's some scales in the
shop and there's a horse outside.
Yeah, that's it.
That's it.
Yeah.
The traditional sounds and smells of old England.
And the voice were going, of course there was no television. Yeah, welcome to Channotown. D-da-da-Dah-Dah-China Town.
Ding-ning, Ming, Ming, Ming, Ming.
So it's not, yeah, it's a good point.
Is that a piece of traditional music?
Ding ding ding, ding, ding, ding?
Is that some traditional Chinese music?
Or is that some of that, that's the music is,
But are you sure they didn't take that from some other sorts?
It's that, it's that pentatonic sky, isn't it?
What is it called?
What's the, it's the black note on the piano?
Right, that's the one I the way to work. A couple of things annoy me. First of all, I think it's bad business just because if you've got a Chinese restaurant, put it somewhere
where there isn't any others. It's a good point. Yeah, but it's also a community. They're
not just a theme park for other people. I ended up, I remember going out one night with
Suzanne, some friends and you got there and there's so much choice it's that dilemma of, oh forget it.
Well really, you're specifically to fancy Chinese.
Well no, but when you go to the one with the dead ducks hanging in the window, that's
my favourite.
It's like normally you put your good stuff in the window.
If that's what's in the window.
Yeah.
Yeah. And the other thing that annoys me, walking through it today, he's always lard on the
floor.
What, in the streets?
It is honestly, I'm scared I'm going to slip over.
It's because all the restaurants and that.
But why is it? That's another point. Well it's not, it's not oozing out of the
restaurants.
No, but why is it? that's why they that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's it? That's it? That's it? That's it? That's it? That's it? That's it? That's that's it? 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 not, that's not, that's not, that's not, that's not, that's not, that's not, that's not, that's not, that's not, that's not, that's not, that's not, 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 the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the that's not, the the the that's not, that's not, the that's not, that's not't know what they do. Careful. Listen, no, but why is it? That's why they used to wear those little wooden shoes.
No, okay, let's sweep up.
The thing is as well, they try and wash it with water, which doesn't work with lard.
It's like oil. Famously, yes. You know what I mean? Even I know that? Yeah, you've sorted that out. So. So. So. So. So. So. So. So. So. So. So. So. So. So. So. So. So. So. So. So. So. So. So. So. So. So. So. So. So. So. So. So. So. So. So. So. So. So. So. So, that. So, th. So, th. So, th. So, th. So, they's. So, they. So, they. So, they. So, they. So, they. So, they. So. So. So, they. So. So. So. So. So. So. So. So. So. So. So. So. So. So. So. So. So. So. So. So. So. So. So. So. So. So. So. So. So, th. So. So. So, they. So, they. So. So, they. So, they. So, they. So, they. So, they. they. they. they're. they're. they're. they're. they're. they're. they they're. I. they they they're. I. So, they. So, they. So, they. So. Yeah, alright. Anyway, thanks for your thoughts on China thin, Kyle.
Right, I'm going to play this thing again because it is a bit slow today at email.
Ah, because it's too hard.
It's not too hard.
There's just clips of songs.
What are the artists?
Email in. XFM.K.K. He's getting annoyed because he put the work in and that one's getting annoyed!
Oh! Remember, I think Kevin Spacey and the signed KPax DVD is probably the only incentive
to try and have a go with that one.
To just think you could win by getting one of them? Exactly. They're coming
in now, okay. This is electronic. Electronic.
Electronic, getting away with it.
Definitely.
Do you reckon we're getting away with it?
He's worried now.
He's worried.
My apologies, if you're offended at my used to wear, don't they still wear them.
We've only had one complaint, haven't we?
We got that we got from the Sony's that one about talking about the swan's penis.
But, you know.
Things about complaints is, people complain all the time. It's whether it's upheld because it goes from authority and then they have to go, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, that, th, th, 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, we, we, we, we, we, we, we, we, we, we, we, we, we, we've, we've, we've, we've that, we've thee, thee, thee, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, we're, we're, we're, we've that, we've that, we've that, we've that, we've that, we've that, we've that, we've that, we've that, we've that, we've that, we have to go, oh yeah, look that was in poor taste or pre-watched or...
Some of the things you've said on TV that you must have been stirring.
Well, see, I've only had, again, I've only had one upheld, one serious slap on the wrist for some I said.
What was he say? Can you repeat it? Well, I was talking about, and it was a true story. And it was a thory, I tho, I tho, and it was a tho, and it was a tho, and it was a tho, and it was a tho, and it was a tho, and it was a thin, and it was a thathue, and it was a tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, thrown, that, thrown, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, thr, thr, thrown, thr, that, thrown, that, that, that, that, that, thrown, that, that, thrown, thrown, thr, thr was talking about this little old man who his daughter was taking
his home because he used to fry up bacon and rub it around his to get the dog
to lick them. Right and you got a complaint? Yeah. And that was it that's why you
got a complaint? Yeah. What's up with that? Well he said it on song to praise. They said it was in poor taste, I suppose.
What other complaints?
You know, the biggest complaint ever on TV, the most complaints ever for ending on TV, was the
showing of the last temptation of Christ?
Yeah.
Do you know the second?
Yeah, the second was I think Anne Robinson, um, put in the Walsh into room 101?
What? Because she didn't like him or that?
Yeah, she just said they're going in that, you know.
She said it slightly more eloquently than that.
Yeah, yeah.
Yeah.
I can answer the people or the place.
I don't know. I think it was the place and therefore the people.
Yeah. What do you mean yeah? No, you know my
mom and dad have sort of moved from Manchester to the Rousside now in Wales.
Oh yeah. And it is, uh... Look at his face, turning his nose up. No, but it is pretty depressing.
Do you know what I mean? It's just one of them places that... It's like you go back in time and that when you go there. I mean
maybe the major city is there, maybe Card if he's alright.
What even coming from Manchester it's like going back in time?
It's just it's like one of them places it feels like every day you're Sunday.
Do you know what I mean? It's just depressing and grey and slate everywhere.
Lots of bickers walking around going on late. Well yeah it's a sort of attitude they have they they they their their their their their their their their their th. It's th. It's th. It's th. It's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's their their their their their th. It's, it's, it's, it's th. It's th. It's th. It's th. It's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, th. It's like, th. It's like, their their their their their th. It's like, their their their their thoo' thea' thea' thethis is true because my mom and dad live there and that, right? And they love it, it's
all right, it's an healthy place to go when you get older and that. But this is why they
don't move on in Wales. Well, I've got to start to make another. Sorry to any Welsh people listening. We're not saying you don't, that, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, thaphaphaph. th. th. thin, thin, thin, thin, thin, thin, thin, their, thin, 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, that, that, that, that, tho. And, tho. And, tho. And, thooooooo. And, thoooo. And, their, their, their, their, their, their about the little Chinese shoes. The thing is it's good that in a way that they do do that and they don't want to be like, you know, rushing about everywhere because the way London is isn't that great either is it?
Because it's totally opposite here, right? So I'm not having to go. It is a bit dull. I think even people who live there will agree with me. Okay. But like one of the shops that my that my that my that my that my that my that my that my that my that my that my that my that my that my that my that my that my that my that my that that that that that that that that th is th is th is th is th. the is thus is thus is that is thus is thus is thus is thus is thus is not th. th. th. th is not th. their is their is their is isn't is their is their is isn't is their is their is their is their is their is their is their is their is their is their is their is their is their is their is their is their their their their thus is that is that. that. that. that. the is that. the thus. thus. the thus. thus. the the is the the is the is their is th villagey type shop. They can't be bothered staying open for hours and hours, right, because there's not enough
people use a shop.
So what you do is, they get used to what you buy and leave it out.
And they put it in a phone box outside.
They put it in a phone box?
Yeah.
So my dad's loving that.
Once he found that out, it was like, brilliant. But how is 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 thiiii, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thoom, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho. thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi. And, thi. And, thi. And, togu. And, too. And, too. And, together, tha. And, tha. And, thi. So, thi. So found that out, it was like, brilliant. But how is that about him? That's brilliant.
Well it's not for other people, it is for my dad, because he's picking up all sorts of stuff.
Oh no, he's not.
Oh, yeah.
It's not nicking other people's shopping?
Well, it's not like nicking, is it, because it's not theirs yet? Oh! And you've stitched him up on their their their th. their th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thin. thin. thin. thin' thin' thin' thin' thin' thin' thin' thi. thi' thi' thi. thi' thi' thi' that's not, it's not, it's not, it's that's not that's not that's not that's not that's that's not that's that's not, it's th.

It's not thi. thi. thi. thi. It's not thi. thi. It's not that's not thi. It's not thi. It is th they're going to think who's like, who is there in town
with a mank accent? Who keeps making phone calls and is getting fatter? Yeah. That's
I love that. I love that that your dad was excited when he found out. I can't believe that he's
moved there. He's retired to this little village
where it's based on trust and community and he is abusing it, he's using his scaly mankways.
Bloody their lake has no blood again.
There's old women hungry.
The cats aren't getting fed and your father is just, I can't, that's obscene.
Oh, I think it's a die thief. That fellow from Manchester.
I don't even think they've got Sky there yet, have they? They can't listen. They won't know what's.
I think you've stitched him right up. I hope you have actually. I hope he goes down for it.
I hope he's hounded out of the community like Frankensteinstein's monster. Yeah. Set fire fire fire in his the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the th th th the 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 th th the th th theat's the f' the f' th f' th f' th f' th f' th f' th f' th f f f fie f f fie f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f fie fie th th th th th th th th th th thie thie thie thie thie thie fief-f-ffiefiefiefiefiefiefiefiefiefiefiefiefiefiefiefiefiefiefiefiefiefiefiefiefiefiefiefiefief should get burning torches, go up to the mansion.

Forget about tomorrow.
Forget about tomorrow.
Feder.
Right.
Listener, I'm talking to you now.
Have you seen these posters around with me and Steve on it?
It's embarrassing, right? We were mucking around at a photo session and XF
wanted to do some posts. We couldn't be bothered to do them again, so we let them have this one. I really comes back to Horner and it looks like like I, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, forget, forget, forget, forget, forget, forget, forget, forget, forget, forget, forget, forget, forget, forget, forget, forget, forget, forget, forget, forget, forget, forget, forget, forget, forget, forget, forget, forget, forget, forget, forget, forget, forget, forget, forget, forget, forget, forget, forget, forget, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, and XCFM wanted to do some posts. We couldn't be bothered to do them again so we let him have this one.
Irony comes back to Horner and it looks like I think I'm Simon Temple or some of it.
Steve's alright but we think that Carl should be in it.
Definitely.
Carl doesn't want to be in it but it looks like everyone listened to this show for Carl's basically, you know, innocent stupidity and some great tracks.
They don't listen for us anymore, Steve.
So I think it should be a campaign to get Carl on the poster.
Yeah.
Well, I should point out that I think XFM are more than happy to have him on the poster.
So it's just him?
You don't want to be on there, do you?
There's no need for me to be on it. Of course there is. Why not? I've got so many emails here as I'm sat during the show reading them, so many emails saying what does Carl look like, what pictures of Carl?
If they go to XFM.Cud at UK 4 slash Ricky, we've got those film bits on there, those video
mock-ups where I'm part of it, you can sort of sit on that. That's not'll be too much on a poster. They can only take him so much.
What do you mean? They're taking so much? Yeah, it's good with two people. It's enough.
So what are what are groups do then? Well they haven't. It's like it's like Ringo Starr is being left
off the cover of Sergeant Pepper. Yeah. Or Rutherford doesn't get in looking with Genesis.
Exactly. You know, it could be outrageous.
Yeah. I'll say, oh, oh, sorry, Tony Banks. You can't be in this one. Yeah. It's just mean, you will
be very, you see you look like the Collins. So you've got to be in there. I don't photograph that
well either. You're joking. Is it because the shot? It's a little cuble. the little to say to me, th, because, because, because, because, because, because, because, because, because, because, because, because, like, like, the the th, their, th, th. th. th. th. th. th. thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, to, to, to, to, to, to, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, to, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, th. Oh, th. Oh, th. Oh, th. Oh, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to. Oh, to. Oh, to. Oh, to. Oh, oh, to. Oh, to. Oh, to. Oh, to. Oh, to. Oh, sorry. Oh, to. Oh, sorry. Oh, to. Oh, to. Oh, oh, sorry. Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, to. Oh, you should dispel the myth. A lot of people think for some reason that you're fat. A lot of people say to me, is he fat? No, but that's because they haven't got much
air so it looks like my heads big. No, they haven't even seen you. They just think from
listening to the show that you're fat. Ask us you're northern. They think you just eat ciped and complain about the south. I. I. I. I. I. I. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I the, the, thath. I thathea, that's thath. I that's that's that's that, that's that's that tho they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. that. they're they're they're, a lot of people judge people on the way they look.
Oh, like you do.
Hey.
If only more people thought like that, Steve.
But Carl, you judge people on the way they look.
Yeah, I know.
That's what I mean.
But I couldn't with me, could I try.
to thii. you know, slag me off and that because I don't know what I look like and I quite like that.
Do you know what I mean?
I've lost.
Absolutely lost.
Just believe me right, I'm right on this one.
It's best if you leave it.
Well we're not going to leave it, we're going to leave it.
We're going to get you on the poster.
Yeah.
I mainly have the scenes footage and I've got a, you've seen it.
I feel a bit of Carl on there isn't it?
Yes, great, it's lovely. He can't believe it. He said, is it playing slow?
Because he's so slow when I come into the office going, all right?
That's how you talk.
I'm the with it. I just think that if we're willing to, to, if Ricky's willing to use his celebrity
profile for the sake of the show, I'm willing to look like, you know, let's say a fairly
handsome kind of cool customer, I think at least, the very least, Carly's that you
appear on there as well.
You could dress up. Are you worried that you'll look the worst out of all three of us? Who am I standing next to Steve? I'm fairly confident.
Yeah.
I don't the way. It's so predictable. You pull the string because you know what it is.
It's not... You pull the string?
I know.
Oh, what we're talking about for?
Oh, so, yeah. You know the most complaints ever, the last uptation of asen of Christ? I haven't seen it. Um, what is it, it scores Aze in it?
It's my own Scorsesey and I, I've bought the film actually recently because I was
intrigued to see it, but I've not actually watched it, but from what I understand,
the reason that it was so outrageous is that it would be the cross but lived his life as a human being, part of which is him having sex.
And so I think that was chiefly what the outrage was, that was what the the outrage was that was
what the outrage was that was showing this godly man to be, you know, as human as well.
You know, as he was, you know, as he was a human, because he was supposed to be human I haven't seen the film. You see him? Do you see him having sex I think yes. Although it is an actor Carl. It's not the real Robert Powell. It's not the real Robert Powell.
You see, sex on films and all that, right? When I was growing up and I'd be watching, no,
just saying an example of this really, right? When I was growing up as a kid and I'd be, you know, watching films with my dad, right? 'd really be enjoying a film, right? And then a sex scene would happen. Right. And he'd go...
On film? Or just behind you. In the film, a sex scene would happen. Your brother had to his
old tricks again. And he'd get up and go make a cup of tea. Right. Typhoon? That he'd stolen from some sort of telephone box? And like
even recently he'll, he thinks it ruins a film. Do you know what I mean? Because
there's no need for it to happen, is they? Really? Yes. Why? Sometimes it's what it's
warranted? If the film is it isn't though. Some films it isn't. I think the I and his dad watched together on Channel 5? Yeah. Probably not. the, if. the, if, if, the, the, the, the th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thi, thi, thi, thi thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. And, th. And, th. And, thi. And, thi. And, thi. And, thi. And, thi. And, thi. And, thi. And, thi. And, thi. And, thi. And, thi. And, thi. And, thi. And, thi. And films it isn't. Of course some films it's horrible. I think the films that him and his dad watched together on Channel 5.
Yeah, probably not. Is it only on Channel 5 in your house?
Yeah, if you're watching, you know, a late night, Friday night, you know.
From 1983. Yeah, illegal briefs.
A beautiful lawyer has to defend a man who may be a killer, she falls in love with him, but does she, know the real man? Oh dear. You know what I mean though?
Lest you forget of course that I...
Love Heat?
With the bloke that is now in, go on.
You know of course that I, according to the internet movie database, I once appeared
in one of those films in the film Killer Image, a Canadian film I believe
according to that computer, it's all wrong. It's all wrong. It's all wrong. Of course it is, yeah. Apparently I was in that and I played the role of Kirk.
Was it a porn thing?
No, no, no, I think it's just an erotic thriller.
Oh right. You only had a very small part, didn't you? Indeed. But no, do you know what? Sometimes you don't need to go that far, say like in th. the th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. that. the. the. the. the. the. that that the. tha' tha' tha' tha' tha' that. that that. that. tha' tha' tha' tha' tha. tha. tha. tha. tha. the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the that. that that that that the the the the thra' throooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo' tha. And tha. And last temptation is cool. You know what, what's his name? Is it Ralph in the Simpsons?
Yes.
I draw the kitty cat. It's like talking to that.
Yeah. No, but right, this temptation thing, right?
Do you know, often we don't get that many complaints on the show.
We don't get very many complaints. And I think that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's they. they. tho. that's tho. tho. tho. tho. thinks thinks thinks their their tho. their their their their their their thinks. thoomom. their their their. their. their their. their. I's. I's. I's. I's. I's. I's. I's. I's. I's. I's. I. I. I's. I. I's. I's. I's. I's. I's. I's. I's. I's. I's. I's. I's. I's. I's. I's. I's. I's. I's. I's. I's. I's. I's. It's they. It's thin. It's tho. It's tho. It's they. It's they. It's they. I'm. they. I'm. they. I'm. they. I'm. I'm. I'm. Ithat terrible to me. Or they let him off because it's like, you know, you can plead insanity, you can go mental
and kill for people where they go, oh, he's bit back.
No, but was it because they're saying that he was having it away?
Or is it because you saw it? What got the complaints?
The complaint was the very suggestion that Christ would be a blasphemous thing, not the fact that you saw an act as knob. So what about if they just cut it down a bit and you like saw the little stable door closing?
It wasn't the baby Jesus having sex. It was the grown man.
The stable door shut him!
Oh, it was the nativity scene?
Ah, that is brilliant.
The wise men saying, I can't believe we brought mirror, we should have brought condoms. Yeah, yeah, it's the the the the the the the the the the the the their, it's sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort, it's, it's, it's, it's sort, the the the the the their, you, you, you, you, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, the little, the little, the little, the little, the little, the little, the little, the little, the little, the little, the little, the little, the little, the little, the little, the little, the little, the little, the the the little, the the the the th. It's that, the that, the that the that that that that that that that that that that that that that thate. It's, th is brilliant. The boys men saying I can't believe we brought Mirro. We should have brought condoms.
No, yeah.
Yeah, there's two for one offering boots.
I don't know what we're thinking.
This trying consent.
It's just that it's always awesome, right?
Should we apologize now to the Christian church as well?
So we did the little Chinese fellas, uh, little Wauwishers. anything wrong. No, no. It's like, you see when I was growing up... Staple door, I love
the idea that in Carl's world, he was born in a stable, just thought, well I love this
place, yeah, I'm just going to stay the rest of my days. This is good here. Oh, brilliant.
But when I was watching tele, my mom and dad, I mean it still happens now, right? My dad if some sex scene happens. But what are we talking about sex scene? Are we talking about a kissing or are we talking about penetration and looking at the camera going, you're enjoying
this, Pilkington's? What are we talking about? What is it? What is it? What is it? Meet, meet, meet Joe Black? What are we today? Meat, Meet Joe Black? the meat, the tea thrown? Yeah, yeah. the, the, the th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. that, the the the the the the th. the the th. that, the the the th. the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the th.... We. We. What th. What th. We're, th. We're, th. We're th. We're th. What the. We're te. te. te. te. te. teat teat teat teat teat teat. teat. te. te.. Yeah, yeah there was good film and then you know it's gonna happen because like the
music comes in Brad Pitt's keeping quiet a woman's I'm in him up sure so
my man's my man's worked it out already and she's going to anything on
the other side love she knows she knows it's you know something's
something's uh so and so you can be enjoying a
film and you can be an hour and ten in and then some spidey senses of one of
them can go to turn out over and the other one goes yeah right are you sure
it's not them protecting you from scenes of sex so that they're what they're
thinking is what if Carl gets the idea to have sex yeah that could to procreation we don't want any more like him yeah the the the the to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to the to the to to the the the to to the to to to to the the the to to the the the to to to to to to to to to to to their their the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the they they. they. they. they. they. they. they. the. the. the. the. the. the. te. tee. te. tea. they. they. thee. they. they. they. they. the could lead to procreation we don't want any more like him. We've got to end the line here. You're sure it's not the doctor? Keep calling out and going, you
are keeping away from women, aren't you? He must never find out. Are you sure they're
embarrassed because they're watching sex in with their son? It happens every time, right? There's two things that my ma'am does, right?

How many other radio shows have talked about Last Temptation of Christ, Chinatown,
Fat, Ugly Women?
Yeah.
Yeah.
In 60 Minutes.
Exactly.
Incredible.
Turing breaks, pain killer on XFM 104.
Ricky Joveys, with me, Steve Merchant and Carl Pilkington.
I should point out now Rick that the general consensus from the listeners is that Carl should definitely
be on the poster. Obviously, obviously.
There's an interesting email here. Of course they should. It just says, I'dto see Carl on the, uh, on the poster, especially as I'm watching
him on the webcam today and wearing that shirt, doesn't he look like Charlie Brain?
He looks just like Charlie Brain from the Denex cartoon.
Oh my God.
That's it, from now on if anyone ever asked me what, it does look like Charlie Brown. Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, it, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it, it, it, it, it, th. th. th, I, I, I, th, to, to, I to, to, to, I, to, to, I, especially, especially, especially, to, especially, th, especially, especially, th, especially, th, especially, th, especially, th, th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th.

Oh, I just, it's great because Charlie Brown has got that thing.
You've got less features than Morph.
It's just a round head and there's human aspects.
It's just the bare minimum.
When I draw a cartoon of him, it's so easy.
Yeah.
Ah.
The thing is right, if I go on the poster, this is what I'm worried about.
Where do you go from there? What do the the the difficult in it. Do you know like before you were talking about the complaint that a TV channel got about some fella
putting bacon? Yeah? Yeah? That was me? Yeah. Yeah you were talking about a
faulat but yeah I was talking about it here and they got a complaint yeah. Right. Now he had to do that to get a kick yeah? Yeah where do you go from there? thi. to th. Where. Where. Where? Where?

For you using without copyright, it is the most popular creation. Oh, it's just that if people don't know.

So, they're the answers.
We're looking for someone who, I don't think we got anyone who had them all right, but...
Nobody got all seven, although in your little answer list then, you only listed six,
because you got, your numbers went out of sync in your own brain.
Well, then, once again. I tell you what, Carl, why do, you, you, the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the th, th, th, th, th, th an than, the, I the answer, than, I than, I don't than, I th an th an the, I the, I the, I the, I the answer.

Don't need to.
Well, you clearly do because you can embarrass yourself.
Don't need to.
You've proved that you do.
All right, anyway.
Well done, I'm going to give it to Paul Tear, P.J.T.
to their because he got five of the seven. that signed Kevin Spacey. Yeah you can just email us your address as well and get them

20th century boy, come on Mark.
Some people want a 21st century boy these days.
Mark, Mark, Mark Bollin there. A little bit out of date on XFM1 at 4.9.
Look at you today, Steve Merchant, Carl little bit out of date on XFM1-04.9.
We do they, Steve Merch and Carl Pilkington. Right, it's that time again, isn't it?
Munky News? Monkey News.
So, monkey-monkey news.
Right, if you're a new listener, this is where we do a bit of a monkey news news. Oh imagine him giving his chance on a news bogo. Like news night review or news at
10 over to Carl Pilkington. Yeah, all right. Monkeys gone mad again. Go on. Right, we've done
quite a lot of good stuff. The one that sort of kicked up most of the fuss was probably
Olly the monkey. I love the fact that they're all monkeys, he's
a chimpanzee! It's an ape! Well today, right, we're looking at one that's called Coco. Oh yeah,
the one, the sign language one. Well what I've read about him is he speaks, right?
Oh God. Highly educated. Yeah.
Yeah. Photographer. speaks, highly educated, photographer.
I love the fact that when he can get to a gifted ape, he has to look up to him. He realizes that he is superior.
I love that.
I love the fact that when he gets a gifted ape, he has to look up to him.
Yeah, he realizes that he is superior. I love that.
Oh. And uh, it also likes going on computer chat rooms.
I can't take this any more on teeth. I'm going to be sick. Oh God.
Which? Right? That's pretty amazing. You know if an infinite number of monkeys or in an infinite number of
chat rooms, they'll eventually type which is your favorite episode of Buffy the vampire slayer. Exactly, Exactly, yeah. Garf Wilkinson, you're an idiot. But the thing is, right, you're
saying about the infinite thing again, about monkeys if you put them in a room with a typewriter,
they'll come up with Shakespeare. I'd sort of agree with that, right, with monkeys who can't do the other stuff, but this one 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 th. I thin, I thin, I thin, I thi, I thi, I reckon, I reckon, I reckon, I reckon, I reckon, I reckon, I reckon, I reckon, I reckon, I reckon, I reckon is thin' thin' thin' thin' 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 thin' thin' thin' thin, thin, thin, thin thinn' thinn' thin thinn' thinn' thin thin thin their their that are boring. Is there a boring monkey?
Is there, would you ever have a chimp and you'd go, Suzanne would go, I've got your birthday
present and you haven't have it, it's a chimp, it's a chimp, he's about, you know, about a sort
of like a middle-aged chimp? No, I'd love it. I'm talking about, I'd tell you. I'd tell you'd the I'd love the the the the the to to to to have to to have the to have to have the to have to have to have to have to have to have to have a to have a to have a to have a to have a to have a to have a to have a to have a to have a their to have a chimp, I'd have a chimp. I'd to have a chimp. I'd a chimp. I'd a chimp. I'd a chimp. I'd a chimp. I'd a chimp their a chimp. I'd a chimp. I'm a chimp. I'm a chimp. I'm a their a their a their their their their their, I'm a their, I'm a their, I'm a their, I'm a their, I'm a tipe, I'm a tipe, I'ma. tipe, tip, tip, tip, tipe, tip, tip, tip, t No, no, but I bet the monkey would get bored, I mean.
Do you know what I mean?
The monkey would be bored.
I'd be loving it.
I'd love to have a little monkey, right?
But what I'm saying is...
You really would, wouldn't you?
You buy them a camera, it'd be happy again, wouldn't get in time. It's like if you can do other stuff you don't want to do the boring stuff.
Forget the typing, forget the monkeys typing, talk about this monkey that's a photographer.
No, but we are in a way. I'm just saying that that would be happier.
Monkeys that have got nothing else to do if they can't set pictures and they can't go on chat rooms. They're happy to sit in a room they they they they they they they they're happy they they they they're happy they they're happy they're happy they they're happy they're happy they're happy they're happy they're happy they're happy they're happy they're happy they're happy. They're happy. They're happy. They're happy. They're happy. They're happy they're happy they're happy. They're happy. They're happy. They're happy they're happy they're happy. They're happy. They're happy they're happy. They're happy. They're happy. They're happy. They're happy. They're happy. They're they're happy they're happy. They're they're happy.

They're happy. They're happy. They're happy. They're happy. They're happy. They're happy. They're happy But he's got maybe a little exhibition to put on. Do you think... Do you know most do you know that most chimps and apes and monkeys still
actually just live in trees? These are in laboratories and zoos and things. You know that that's not the norm
these these monkeys walking around sort of chatting and riding bikes. Yeah. That's not the norm these these monkeys walking around chatting and riding bikes.
Yeah, that's not natural. Exactly. No I know but if you left a bike in the
jungle and then came about a few years like there wouldn't be monkeys riding
around on it and a book if you left a bike with a book in the basket right
and you went away for 10 years and you came back there wouldn't be a whole
new transport system and schools.
No.
They'd eat it.
They'd throw it round and eat it.
All right then, so what you're saying is you can't, you see what I think is, right, and don't
take this the wrong way in that, right?
Stephen Orkin, right?
Now he had a bad illness. Now, I wonder he'd be, I wonder if he'd be as bright
as he is if he didn't have that. Right. Because he's had time to sit down and he's like,
well what can I do? They've gone and give him a book. And he read it, I like that. Give us
another one. Yes. He's got a lot of time on his hands. Now what I'm saying is monkeys, they, they, that, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, he he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's he's he's he's he's he's he's he's he's he's he's he's he's he's he's he's he's he's he's he's he's he's he's he's he's he's he's he's he's he's he's he's he's he's he's he's he.

Right, right? That wouldn't have been happy on a little keyboard, just doing that all day
because it'd be going well I could be out taking pictures. Sure.
Play a record! Yeah. Do you know what I mean? You're an idiot? There it was. There it was. There's the catchphrase. Once more. He is, he's
an idiot! Sure, sure. El Salvador on XFM 104.9 I'm Ricky Javais with me the amazing Steve Merchant and the
incredible Carl Pilkington. All right? Right we've done that, Monkey News. Right, let's
hit them dead. Let's go straight with Cheapest Chimps, Carl.
Well, this will probably finish today to be honest. All right. What if we looked at at Cheapest Chimps? We found out that They ate one banana next, go on do this one, yeah, yeah that's it, brilliant.
It was a long running feature, go on. Sorry, can I just ask again, what are the rules with

pounds. To buy a chimp? Yeah. Oh no, a ridiculous amount. Where can you buy them from?
What sources? You shouldn't be having to buy them?
eBay. What could you mean, Buy a chimp from who?
There was this website that was selling stuff.

Uh, 25,000 pounds. Right, $8,000 for a camel. All right.
Sloth. Forty quid.
$3,000. Right. Last one.
Bangal Tiger.
Oh, that's got to be pricey.
$12,000.
$1,800. What? Yeah.
Carl, this is an awful website. That can't be true mate. That's awful. A chimp.
Well, a chimp. Five thousand dollars. I'm going to go with um, $1,000.
55,000. What? Yeah. That doesn't make sense. It's mad, in it? Yeah.

to 11 when they were all drunk. They wanted Don McLean's American pie, which they all sang along to. Of course, yeah. Uptown girl they liked, they their. they they they they they they they they they they they their. they they they they they they they they they they their. they they they their. they they wanted, their, their, their, they wanted, they wanted, their, they wanted, they wanted, they wanted, they wanted, they wanted, they wanted, they wanted, they wanted, they wanted, they wanted, they wanted, they wanted, they wanted, they wanted, they wanted, they wanted, they wanted, they wanted, they wanted, they their, they their, they their, they their, they their.

They're all all all all all all all all all all all all all, their, th't use to do the talking at all. No, I couldn't. I just don't understand it.
I just love those wedding sort of DJs that they have to give you extra information.
They can't just play a song.
They have to say things like, ooh, all the way back there and the Commodore's easy.
It's all like, they have to play the next record? It's a wedding, yeah. It's like a kind of, there's like a controller of a local radio station listening.
He just happens to be at the wedding, thinking, hang on.
Hold on, he's played a record, but it's got extra information.
Well, I should do useful things at a wedding.
Yeah, yeah.
Uh, will the overweight aunt in empty, will any eight-year-old boys wearing those tiny
tuxedo please slide across the dance floor on their knees?
Until they are taken home and put to bed early.
I went to one once and the bloke who'd hired it was to go into the DJ and this DJ that had come with this sort of party, he went to 70s disco and he looked like Woody Allen right
and I was sure he used to be a gentleman's outfitters like and he said I
want to I want to the 70s disco and he went well I've got bicycle
race by Queen lined up I got ELO and I've got Cliff we don really want to blow all my earth, wind and fire before 10
It's like, oh, plans are the rule. There are rules.
Will the 17 year old girl who's dressed like Avril Levine
Please tucked loudly because I still haven't played anything by linking park
Will the 45 girl woman recently divorced please cry now? Please cry now, please cry now because it's clear you're never going to find another man.
Because you used to be a DJ, didn't you, because there is a sort of rule.
I remember there was like, you know, what I learned was that there are certain tunes you just do
not play early on.
Oh what a night for instance?
Do, do you never play that before like 11.
You want that last hour hour the hour girl home to be non-stop dancing. When would you pop on dancing queen? Interesting, thanks for that. Is there a buffet being served?
Yes. Yeah, well definitely post buffet. I remember there was great days. I was reminded, I was
was great days. I was reminded this recently by I remember there was great days. I was was a great day as a bit of a bit of a thirty, the tho, thi, thi, I, I, I, or a thi, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I was, I was, I was, I was, I was, I was, I was, I was, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, is, is, is, yeah, yeah, thi, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is definitely, is definitely, is definitely, is definitely, yeah.

Yeah, I'm th. Yeah, definitely. Yeah barnstormer. Sure. But sadly no longer than the true. What about, I mean because the danger is you go back to the 70s, maybe you've got dancing
queen, but how many do you play before you come into the 80s with perhaps Billy Jean?
Or soft salvely.
Soft sounds always a classic, yeah.
Yeah. And because there's always now dance ironically to Bombastic?
In the vain hope that someone will actually find them attractive.
No, no, never liked.
I never, I never, I never, I never, I never, I just never liked any records or the hint of novelty about them.
They are popular they, they're they're full fillers.

Exactly.

Yeah.

Have you?
Yeah.
And you don't play Dex's Middurners?
Probably.
Yeah.
Yeah, I mean, I didn't plan it out. stole from his parents' bedroom beforehand. Why are you giving away stuff at a disco anyway?
Why aren't you just playing records? Because people liked it, didn't he? If it wasn't? It hasn't
changed. We're doing this. We talk rubbish, we play records and we give away crap that
we found. It hasn't changed, does it? And, uh, see I had some good times. I mean, for people people who haven't been listening all the time, it was called Pilkys' their. their, their, their, their, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, thin, th, th, thin, thin, thin, th, th, th, th, th, th, thin' th, th, thin' thin' th.

For calling Making.
It was like Pilkington and my mate was called something Making and the music is what we played.
Right?
And he had some cards made, had some nice blue, glossy cards made, but they were quite expensive.
So I used to hand them out and then they said, say no write it down, write the number down I want that back. That's brilliant.
Because they were quite pricey.
Yeah, yeah, classy, classy businessman there.
I think which of Branson used to do that.
I think so, yeah.
Save the bit of money because my dad made some lights for me.
He just like, he like a box and like my
mate making he used to just flick them on and off like the thing and then they'd be in
time with the music and that. Perfect. Why have you got to sit there and flip the liber
the like, I love it. We got a sound to light system. What's his name? Yeah. Brilliant. Right. So, that's the name. that's the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the 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. 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. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thi. thi. thi. thi. the the. the the the the thi. the the the the the thi. the thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. the. the. Right, so... Did you ever rent him out? Well, we never had any disasters right, but we mate did one, right?
I don't know if it's that funny really, but it...
I don't know that to tell you anyway, right?
He was doing this gig and it was probably one of the biggest gigs, like, that he ever had.
Must have been a couple of hundred people there.
And, um, in like a big, sort of warehouse thing. Anyway for some reason there was some problem with a big speaker that fell, right? So the police turn up and stuff. And they try to control the
night and they're going, can everyone sit down? Can we try to control it, can you sit down?
So anyway, you get a few like little groups of people sitting down on the floor and
people are sitting down and people are more people are sort of sitting down.
It's going on for about 20-odd minutes, right? Will you please sit down and it gets this
point when there's just one lad stood up in the middle? And he's going, look, you're ruining
it for everyone. Will you sit down and it goes, the lad he goes, ah, the lad standing up has got calipers on his legs.
Can we have a round of applause for the kid?
Who said that?
It was this lad who was doing the DJ.
He was DJ. So like they kept the police and everything were saying, well you sit down
and you're ruining it for everyone else.
Dear, you know the quick way to say that would have been playing such as a house. Yeah, who's going to sit down?
Yeah.
But most of mine were, I had good nights, always got re-bucked and stuff and...
I had a bunch of venture scouts and mental ones, had a food fight.
What was it? Why have planned to venture scouts for?
Well, we got booked by everyone, Rick.

And there's a thing called Fat Admirers that just fancy fat women, right?
And uh... You're writing that down? Yeah, sorry for the fat people. And they had blow-up
versions. It looked like a bouncy castle. Wow. Yeah. Yeah. Really? that. Oh, God- That's people being cruel as well, isn't 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 the the the the the there, the there, there, there, there, there's there's there's there's there's there's there's there's there's there's there's there's there's there's there's there's there's there's there's there's there's there's there's there's there's there's there.

There's thi. There's a that, that, that, that, that-a that-a' that that that that that that that that that up. You just wouldn't want to go forget it.
Oh God. That's people being cruel as well, isn't it? Because after watching the program on Channel 4
about the, you know, the fat people and fellas who like them and stuff, there was a story on one of the
news websites about some fellow in Germany, right? It was a big fella, must have been about 50 stone and he fell over, right?
And I think he heard his ankle or something.
And Timber...
They sent firemen instead of like an ambulance.
Yeah.
So straight away they're having a bit of a laugh.
Well they didn't know, they didn't have a winching gear.
They had to use the host pipes to carry him out.
I think it was Ananova, that news website, they had to use the host pipe, so they made like a bed using the hose pipes.
Oh yeah. And had to carry him out on that. And they had to sort of get him into a special the the the thue, thue, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, 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, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, th, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, th same when they got to the hospital. I mean that's a bit...
That's bad isn't it?
They shouldn't do that.
Although, Carl, I'm loving that story, I'm just worried that we're not going to be able to
fit in Cheaky Freak of the Week.
All right, Cheeky Freak of the Week.
Um, something I found on the net. Yeah. Feller who had 27 toes tow to to to still on him. And proper ones as well, not like little
stumps and that. Proper, fully formed fingers. He was like... Was he a pianist? Close-up magician?
I don't know what he did. He just said that, that is... Cat's cradle, professional. Did you ever work on finger bulbs? He was saying in the week. For the crowd scenes.
I'm now going to do Braveheart. He said about the elephant man. He said, I want to do a thing
right with freaks, whether it's good and bad. He went, what did he said, the pro about him is?
What about the fellow with loads of fingers or... No, the elephant man? Well he... He said the bad thing is, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the crowd. For the crowd. For me. For the the crowd. For the crowd. For the crowd. For the crowd. For the crowd. For the crowd. For the crowd. For the crowd, for the crowd, for the crowd. For the crowd. For, for, for, for. For, for, for. For, for. For, for. For, for, for, for, for. For. For. For. He's th. He's th. He's the the the the the the the the the the the the the the throude What about the fellow with loads of fingers or...
No, the elephant man?
Well, he...
He said the bad thing is he stretches his jumpers.
Ha ha ha ha ha.
Well, he puts them on.
And what's the good thing?
Sort of...
He never gets up and goes, oh, my hair's a bit of a mess today. No. He's always having another bad face day.
I'm not the complaint about this head and shoulders. You take him to piss. Oh dear.
So that's freaky. Didn't you see an elephant woman in Manchester? Yeah, leave that.
What do you mean leave it? No, because it is sad. Oh no it's sad, but I mean I don't know what my next sentence is. It's not a
pink pillow it seems. That should be the end. Do they all? I don't need to say
anymore people know what she looks like. It's a good name for her.
Did she like buns? Oh dear. It was when my dad was a taxi driver and I used to sit in the front and she used
to get a lot of taxis.
And he only charged you half price, isn't he?
He was a good guy.
Well the bad thing is as well with people like that.
You don't want to offend them because they never forget.
Oh, Carl Pilkington. I was in, I was sat in the front of the cab and my dad
goes right we're going to go and pick the, you know, the, I'm not going to tell you the name,
he's just evil. What do you mean? No, no, no, no, Carl. Tell me what he said? No. You've
already stitched him up, he's Steve in things that. To be fair, our opinion of him is already pretty low.
Look, tell me what he said.
No, it's not, I'm scared of what my dad gets, it's the person who's got listening, is she?
Well, our headphones wouldn't fit on her.
Tell me what he called her.
Tell me what he called her.
Tell me what he called her. No, I'll leave that. Honestly. Tell me what he called her!
Carl!
Just...
I want to know what he called him.
