MILTON: Good evening,
ladies and gentlemen.
5
00:00:23,960 --> 00:00:25,960
Welcome back, welcome back.
6
00:00:25,960 --> 00:00:27,960
At long last, the time is come.
7
00:00:27,960 --> 00:00:29,960
Please, welcome to the stage...
8
00:00:29,960 --> 00:00:31,320
well, me, Milton Jones!
9
00:00:31,320 --> 00:00:33,960
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

00:00:41,960 --> 00:00:42,960
MAN IN AUDIENCE: Milton!
11
00:00:44,960 --> 00:00:46,960
Good evening.
AUDIENCE: Good evening.
12
00:00:46,960 --> 00:00:48,960
It's nice to be back to normal,
isn't it?
13
00:00:48,960 --> 00:00:51,960
LAUGHTER
14
00:00:53,960 --> 00:00:57,960
If I understand history correctly,
15
00:00:57,960 --> 00:01:01,960
years ago, everyone in this country
whose name was Colin...
16
00:01:02,960 --> 00:01:04,960
was rounded up...
17
00:01:04,960 --> 00:01:07,960
and transported
to places like Canada,
18
00:01:07,960 --> 00:01:11,000
India, Australia,
19
00:01:11,000 --> 00:01:13,800
in an attempt...
20
00:01:13,800 --> 00:01:16,320
LAUGHTER
21
00:01:20,960 --> 00:01:22,480
Some of you seem to be ahead of me.
22
00:01:22,480 --> 00:01:24,960
LAUGHTER
23
00:01:24,960 --> 00:01:26,320
In an attempt...
24
00:01:27,480 --> 00:01:29,960
Here we go...
LAUGHTER
25
00:01:29,960 --> 00:01:32,960
In an attempt
to Colin-ise the world!
26
00:01:32,960 --> 00:01:36,960
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
27
00:01:36,960 --> 00:01:39,960
I hope you're with me now,
28
00:01:39,960 --> 00:01:42,800
cos if you're not,
it's gonna be a long evening.
29
00:01:42,800 --> 00:01:44,960
Ladies and gentlemen,
you need to know something.
30
00:01:44,960 --> 00:01:47,960
I've spent some time
in the secret services...
31
00:01:47,960 --> 00:01:50,960
the ones between
Swansea and Cardiff on the M4.
32
00:01:50,960 --> 00:01:53,960
LAUGHTER
33
00:01:54,960 --> 00:01:56,960
Where all the signs are encrypted.
34
00:01:56,960 --> 00:02:02,480
LAUGHTER
35
00:02:02,480 --> 00:02:03,960
I'm not... In Welsh.
36
00:02:03,960 --> 00:02:07,960
LAUGHTER
37
00:02:09,960 --> 00:02:13,960
I'm not quite sure why I lost my job
with MI5 as an interrogator...
38
00:02:13,960 --> 00:02:15,960
and I didn't like to ask.
39
00:02:15,960 --> 00:02:19,960
LAUGHTER
40
00:02:23,960 --> 00:02:27,640
They said they had reports
of me defecting in a stairwell.
41
00:02:27,640 --> 00:02:29,960
I said they needed to
read the reports more carefully.
42
00:02:29,960 --> 00:02:33,960
LAUGHTER
43
00:02:38,960 --> 00:02:40,960
Maybe it was that time
I was supposed to put bombs
44
00:02:40,960 --> 00:02:41,960
under ships in the harbour.
45
00:02:41,960 --> 00:02:43,960
I accidentally filled
all our breathing equipment
46
00:02:43,960 --> 00:02:46,960
with nitrous oxide, I mean...
47
00:02:46,960 --> 00:02:48,960
we laughed about it at the time.
48
00:02:48,960 --> 00:02:50,960
LAUGHTER
49
00:02:53,960 --> 00:02:54,960
There was that other occasion.
50
00:02:54,960 --> 00:02:56,480
I woke up in the middle
of the night,
51
00:02:56,480 --> 00:02:57,960
there was a beautiful woman
in my bedroom.
52
00:02:57,960 --> 00:02:59,960
I said, "Who are you?
What do you want?"
53
00:02:59,960 --> 00:03:00,960
She looked at me and said...
54
00:03:01,960 --> 00:03:03,960
LAUGHTER
55
00:03:03,960 --> 00:03:05,960
.."Nikita."
56
00:03:05,960 --> 00:03:07,960
And sure enough,
when I woke up in the morning...
57
00:03:07,960 --> 00:03:08,960
my radiator was missing.
58
00:03:08,960 --> 00:03:12,960
LAUGHTER
59
00:03:22,960 --> 00:03:24,480
And, so... "Nick heater."
60
00:03:24,480 --> 00:03:27,960
LAUGHTER
61
00:03:30,960 --> 00:03:32,960
And so, tonight,
ladies and gentlemen,
62
00:03:32,960 --> 00:03:35,960
I'm gonna be telling you about
my career as a spy.
63
00:03:35,960 --> 00:03:39,800
The highs, the lows,
and why I had to retire in the end.
64
00:03:39,800 --> 00:03:44,960
The truth is, CIA, KGB, MI5,
they've all got a lot of secrets...
65
00:03:44,960 --> 00:03:46,640
KFC, just the one.
66
00:03:46,640 --> 00:03:49,960
LAUGHTER
67
00:03:52,320 --> 00:03:53,960
It's not easy to kill,
not even a mouse.
68
00:03:53,960 --> 00:03:55,960
Some of them
are bigger than you think.
69
00:03:55,960 --> 00:03:57,960
In fact, I'm still banned
from Euro Disney.
70
00:03:57,960 --> 00:04:01,960
LAUGHTER
71
00:04:04,960 --> 00:04:07,960
If you assume a false identity,
72
00:04:07,960 --> 00:04:09,480
you mustn't draw
any attention to yourself.
73
00:04:09,480 --> 00:04:11,960
As we know,
terrorists all over the world
74
00:04:11,960 --> 00:04:13,960
want to kill everyone
with a British passport.
75
00:04:13,960 --> 00:04:16,960
Imagine being battered to death
with a tiny little book.
76
00:04:16,960 --> 00:04:19,960
LAUGHTER
77
00:04:22,320 --> 00:04:25,960
My aunt, she's almost Irish.
Her name's...
78
00:04:25,960 --> 00:04:27,480
Iris.
79
00:04:27,480 --> 00:04:29,960
LAUGHTER
80
00:04:33,960 --> 00:04:35,960
We're very lucky in this country,
81
00:04:35,960 --> 00:04:37,960
we have an amazing
cultural heritage.
82
00:04:37,960 --> 00:04:38,960
Brilliant cities.
83
00:04:38,960 --> 00:04:41,000
London...
84
00:04:41,000 --> 00:04:43,000
LAUGHTER
85
00:04:43,000 --> 00:04:44,960
WOMAN: Chelmsford!
86
00:04:44,960 --> 00:04:46,480
What's... Where?
87
00:04:46,480 --> 00:04:48,960
WOMAN: Chelmsford.
LAUGHTER
88
00:04:51,960 --> 00:04:52,960
Chelmsford...
89
00:04:52,960 --> 00:04:54,960
LAUGHTER
90
00:04:56,960 --> 00:04:59,960
No, it's true. I've got a cousin
who lives in Chelmsford.
91
00:04:59,960 --> 00:05:01,960
Keeps all his money
under a mattress,
92
00:05:01,960 --> 00:05:03,960
on the grounds that
no thief would ever
93
00:05:03,960 --> 00:05:04,960
think of looking
in the front garden.
94
00:05:04,960 --> 00:05:07,960
LAUGHTER
95
00:05:07,960 --> 00:05:10,960
APPLAUSE
96
00:05:15,960 --> 00:05:16,960
Could have been anywhere.
97
00:05:16,960 --> 00:05:19,800
LAUGHTER
98
00:05:19,800 --> 00:05:20,960
Any other cities
people are proud of?
99
00:05:23,960 --> 00:05:25,960
LAUGHTER
100
00:05:25,960 --> 00:05:26,960
MAN: Gloucester!
101
00:05:26,960 --> 00:05:29,960
Gloucester!
CHUCKLES
102
00:05:29,960 --> 00:05:31,960
I was in Gloucester recently.
103
00:05:31,960 --> 00:05:33,960
There was a girl
walking down the high street
104
00:05:33,960 --> 00:05:35,640
with a sash saying,
"Miss Gloucester."
105
00:05:35,640 --> 00:05:36,960
And I thought,
"That's a good idea."
106
00:05:36,960 --> 00:05:40,960
LAUGHTER
107
00:05:43,960 --> 00:05:46,320
Any other cities?
WOMAN: Truro!
108
00:05:46,320 --> 00:05:48,000
Where?
Truro!
109
00:05:48,000 --> 00:05:49,960
AUDIENCE CHATTER
110
00:05:49,960 --> 00:05:51,960
LAUGHTER
111
00:05:51,960 --> 00:05:53,960
I remember being in Truro...
CHUCKLES
112
00:05:53,960 --> 00:05:55,960
LAUGHTER
113
00:05:56,960 --> 00:05:57,960
..with John Lennon.
114
00:05:58,960 --> 00:06:00,960
I got to the edge
of Cornwall eventually.
115
00:06:00,960 --> 00:06:03,960
I turned to him, and I said,
"Imagine there's no Devon."
116
00:06:03,960 --> 00:06:05,960
LAUGHTER
117
00:06:05,960 --> 00:06:08,480
APPLAUSE
118
00:06:11,480 --> 00:06:12,960
Not long after that,
he wrote the song...
119
00:06:12,960 --> 00:06:14,960
LAUGHTER
120
00:06:14,960 --> 00:06:15,960
..Help!
121
00:06:15,960 --> 00:06:18,960
LAUGHTER
122
00:06:22,960 --> 00:06:24,960
Sheffield, that's an amazing place.
123
00:06:24,960 --> 00:06:27,960
Years ago, not only did
the citizens have to make the steel,
124
00:06:27,960 --> 00:06:29,960
they used to have to
sell it as well,
125
00:06:29,960 --> 00:06:31,960
so in a very real way,
he who smelt it...
126
00:06:31,960 --> 00:06:34,640
dealt it.
LAUGHTER
127
00:06:41,960 --> 00:06:44,960
I did a show in Liverpool recently,
a bloke came up to me afterwards.
128
00:06:44,960 --> 00:06:46,960
He said,
"'Ey, listen. I wanna talk."
129
00:06:46,960 --> 00:06:48,960
I said,
"Well, just keep practising!"
130
00:06:48,960 --> 00:06:50,800
LAUGHTER
131
00:06:50,800 --> 00:06:53,960
APPLAUSE
132
00:06:58,960 --> 00:07:00,960
Recently, I was just
to the north of London.
133
00:07:00,960 --> 00:07:03,960
It turns out, like a lot of people
these days, I am in fact...
134
00:07:03,960 --> 00:07:04,960
Luton intolerant.
135
00:07:04,960 --> 00:07:07,960
LAUGHTER
136
00:07:13,000 --> 00:07:14,960
So then, let us begin.
137
00:07:14,960 --> 00:07:17,320
Stand by for
a bit of a roller-coaster.
138
00:07:17,320 --> 00:07:19,960
LAUGHTER
139
00:07:19,960 --> 00:07:21,960
Yes, tonight, ladies and gentlemen,
140
00:07:21,960 --> 00:07:24,960
I'll be using this amazing,
state-of-the-art Alexa-type system
141
00:07:24,960 --> 00:07:26,800
for all my sounds and pictures.
142
00:07:26,800 --> 00:07:29,480
Man and technology working together,
artificial intelligence
143
00:07:29,480 --> 00:07:32,480
dovetailing with every
nuance of human language.
144
00:07:32,480 --> 00:07:33,640
I digress.
145
00:07:33,640 --> 00:07:34,960
LOUD ROAR
146
00:07:34,960 --> 00:07:36,640
"Digress," not "tigress."
147
00:07:36,640 --> 00:07:39,960
LAUGHTER
148
00:07:43,160 --> 00:07:45,960
Stand by for action...
149
00:07:45,960 --> 00:07:46,960
Intrigue...
150
00:07:46,960 --> 00:07:49,960
SPY MOTIF PLAYS
151
00:07:49,960 --> 00:07:50,960
Suspense...
152
00:07:51,960 --> 00:07:54,640
LAUGHTER
153
00:07:54,640 --> 00:07:56,960
And maybe just a little bit
of what you're not expecting.
154
00:07:56,960 --> 00:07:58,320
Mm, mm, mm, mm, mm!
155
00:07:58,320 --> 00:07:59,960
I'm liking the aubergines!
156
00:07:59,960 --> 00:08:03,960
LAUGHTER
157
00:08:08,960 --> 00:08:11,960
Yes, tonight, ladies and gentlemen,
your mission as an audience,
158
00:08:11,960 --> 00:08:14,960
should you choose to accept it,
is to watch, listen,
159
00:08:14,960 --> 00:08:16,960
and to cheer silently.
160
00:08:16,960 --> 00:08:18,000
Hip-hip!
AUDIENCE: Hooray!
161
00:08:18,000 --> 00:08:22,480
LAUGHTER
162
00:08:31,480 --> 00:08:33,320
Something is wrong
with Great Britain.
163
00:08:34,960 --> 00:08:36,960
Due to hunger
and lack of education...
164
00:08:36,960 --> 00:08:38,960
a lot of lollipop ladies
are being licked to death.
165
00:08:38,960 --> 00:08:41,480
LAUGHTER
166
00:08:44,960 --> 00:08:46,960
I have a friend
who is a person of colour,
167
00:08:46,960 --> 00:08:47,960
she's also on the spectrum.
168
00:08:47,960 --> 00:08:49,960
Her name's Violet.
169
00:08:49,960 --> 00:08:52,160
LAUGHTER
170
00:08:54,960 --> 00:08:57,960
We need to be asking the government
the difficult questions, like...
171
00:08:57,960 --> 00:09:01,160
how did you know how many
census forms to send out?
172
00:09:01,160 --> 00:09:03,960
LAUGHTER
173
00:09:09,960 --> 00:09:11,960
This is Great Britain
and Ireland years ago,
174
00:09:11,960 --> 00:09:14,960
green and pleasant lands,
whereas, today...
175
00:09:14,960 --> 00:09:15,960
covered in graffiti.
176
00:09:15,960 --> 00:09:18,960
LAUGHTER
177
00:09:18,960 --> 00:09:21,960
People say to me, "Islamophobia."
I say no...
178
00:09:21,960 --> 00:09:22,960
lamb is a type of meat.
179
00:09:22,960 --> 00:09:25,960
LAUGHTER
180
00:09:30,800 --> 00:09:32,960
It's not a phobia.
181
00:09:32,960 --> 00:09:34,960
I mean, you might
have a phobia of lamb...
182
00:09:34,960 --> 00:09:38,960
if when you were little,
you fell into a shepherd's pie.
183
00:09:38,960 --> 00:09:39,960
We've all done that.
184
00:09:39,960 --> 00:09:41,160
LAUGHTER
185
00:09:41,160 --> 00:09:42,960
There are some strange people
out there.
186
00:09:42,960 --> 00:09:44,960
Did you hear about
that woman who was arrested
187
00:09:44,960 --> 00:09:46,960
at Gatwick airport this morning?
188
00:09:46,960 --> 00:09:49,960
Seven baby porcupines
in a pillowcase...
189
00:09:50,960 --> 00:09:52,960
..I don't know how
some people sleep at night.
190
00:09:52,960 --> 00:09:54,960
LAUGHTER
191
00:10:00,960 --> 00:10:03,320
Moped crime,
the scourge of our streets.
192
00:10:03,320 --> 00:10:05,000
I saw a moped coming towards me
the other day.
193
00:10:05,000 --> 00:10:06,960
I waited, I waited, I waited.
194
00:10:06,960 --> 00:10:08,960
It was going past...
IMITATES WHOOSH
195
00:10:08,960 --> 00:10:09,960
Took him off.
196
00:10:11,960 --> 00:10:13,480
When I opened up
what he had in the back...
197
00:10:13,480 --> 00:10:15,960
he'd clearly just
stolen a human heart.
198
00:10:15,960 --> 00:10:18,320
LAUGHTER
199
00:10:23,960 --> 00:10:25,960
I probably saved a life, there.
200
00:10:25,960 --> 00:10:28,960
LAUGHTER
201
00:10:28,960 --> 00:10:30,960
We can't trust our heroes any more.
202
00:10:30,960 --> 00:10:33,960
Tom Cruise has been
involved in six missions...
203
00:10:33,960 --> 00:10:34,960
which he said were impossible.
204
00:10:34,960 --> 00:10:36,640
LAUGHTER
205
00:10:36,640 --> 00:10:38,960
Six... Has anyone
ever said to Bear Grylls,
206
00:10:38,960 --> 00:10:39,960
"You need to get out more"?
207
00:10:39,960 --> 00:10:41,960
LAUGHTER
208
00:10:41,960 --> 00:10:43,960
No, and yet,
he remains a liability outdoors.
209
00:10:43,960 --> 00:10:45,960
I don't know if you've ever
tried to warn him
210
00:10:45,960 --> 00:10:47,960
about the attack of a bear...
211
00:10:48,960 --> 00:10:49,960
Bear?
212
00:10:49,960 --> 00:10:51,160
LAUGHTER
213
00:10:51,160 --> 00:10:52,320
Bear.
214
00:10:53,480 --> 00:10:54,960
Bear?
215
00:10:54,960 --> 00:10:57,640
Bear. Bear, bear, bear, bear!
216
00:10:59,960 --> 00:11:00,960
Too late.
217
00:11:00,960 --> 00:11:02,960
LAUGHTER
218
00:11:02,960 --> 00:11:05,960
I once saw a very similar incident
with Sting and a jellyfish.
219
00:11:05,960 --> 00:11:08,960
LAUGHTER
220
00:11:11,960 --> 00:11:13,960
But if you want to know about me...
HARP MUSIC PLAYS
221
00:11:13,960 --> 00:11:15,960
..where I come from,
where I've been,
222
00:11:15,960 --> 00:11:19,320
you need to know about my past...
ECHOES
223
00:11:19,320 --> 00:11:20,960
LAUGHTER
224
00:11:20,960 --> 00:11:22,480
Bit further.
225
00:11:22,480 --> 00:11:23,960
HARP CONTINUES
226
00:11:24,960 --> 00:11:26,960
Too far now, back this way.
227
00:11:26,960 --> 00:11:30,480
HARP MUSIC REVERSES
228
00:11:30,480 --> 00:11:31,960
One more day.
HARP CHIMES
229
00:11:33,960 --> 00:11:35,960
I always remember my mother saying,
230
00:11:35,960 --> 00:11:38,480
"You can eat the leftovers
in the fridge."
231
00:11:38,480 --> 00:11:40,640
I almost froze to death.
232
00:11:40,640 --> 00:11:44,960
LAUGHTER
233
00:11:49,640 --> 00:11:50,960
"Finish your greens," she'd shout,
234
00:11:50,960 --> 00:11:53,000
until I'd eaten
nearly all my felt pens.
235
00:11:53,000 --> 00:11:55,960
LAUGHTER
236
00:11:55,960 --> 00:11:58,960
My sister was to
be known as "Olive,"
237
00:11:58,960 --> 00:12:00,640
but when they came
to register the name,
238
00:12:00,640 --> 00:12:02,960
the pen stopped working briefly,
and from then on,
239
00:12:02,960 --> 00:12:04,960
she had to be known as "Clive".
240
00:12:04,960 --> 00:12:08,960
LAUGHTER
241
00:12:15,160 --> 00:12:17,320
My real hero was my grandfather.
242
00:12:17,320 --> 00:12:19,960
Single-handedly
broke the enigma code...
243
00:12:19,960 --> 00:12:20,960
machine.
244
00:12:20,960 --> 00:12:24,960
LAUGHTER
245
00:12:24,960 --> 00:12:26,960
Grandmother was brilliant
in her own way.
246
00:12:26,960 --> 00:12:29,960
She had an amazing method for
avoiding winter fuel price rises.
247
00:12:29,960 --> 00:12:31,960
Er, she died.
248
00:12:31,960 --> 00:12:35,960
LAUGHTER
249
00:12:35,960 --> 00:12:37,960
Towards the end,
we got her to rally for a bit...
250
00:12:37,960 --> 00:12:40,320
but probably shouldn't have
let her drive a car.
251
00:12:40,320 --> 00:12:42,960
LAUGHTER
252
00:12:45,960 --> 00:12:49,960
My enduring memory will always
be of her giving us raisins.
253
00:12:49,960 --> 00:12:52,160
Birthdays, Christmas,
always raisins.
254
00:12:52,160 --> 00:12:53,960
In fact, we used to call her, er...
255
00:12:53,960 --> 00:12:54,960
Peshwari Nan.
256
00:12:54,960 --> 00:12:59,160
LAUGHTER
257
00:13:03,960 --> 00:13:06,960
But as we sprinkled
my grandfather's remains
258
00:13:06,960 --> 00:13:09,960
on his favourite bowling green,
I thought to myself...
259
00:13:09,960 --> 00:13:12,320
we should probably
have had him cremated.
260
00:13:12,320 --> 00:13:15,960
LAUGHTER
261
00:13:22,960 --> 00:13:25,960
The people around us were
uneducated and un-enlightened.
262
00:13:25,960 --> 00:13:27,960
For instance,
they had their own idea
263
00:13:27,960 --> 00:13:29,960
about what post-feminism was...
264
00:13:30,960 --> 00:13:33,960
LAUGHTER
265
00:13:33,960 --> 00:13:36,800
I, too, struggled
with relationships.
266
00:13:36,800 --> 00:13:39,960
Every February 13th,
the day before Valentine's Day,
267
00:13:39,960 --> 00:13:43,960
you'd always find me running around
a late night garage, 10:30 at night,
268
00:13:43,960 --> 00:13:45,960
looking for a... girlfriend.
STUTTERS
269
00:13:45,960 --> 00:13:47,960
LAUGHTER
270
00:13:47,960 --> 00:13:50,960
But then one day,
a neighbour said to me...
271
00:13:50,960 --> 00:13:53,800
IN ACCENT: "The grass is always
greener on the other side."
272
00:13:53,800 --> 00:13:55,960
"The grass is always
greener on the other side."
273
00:13:55,960 --> 00:13:57,960
I thought maybe he was saying,
in some way,
274
00:13:57,960 --> 00:13:59,960
that I was jealous of him.
Anyway, it turns out...
275
00:13:59,960 --> 00:14:02,960
I had laid my astro-turf
upside down.
276
00:14:02,960 --> 00:14:06,960
LAUGHTER
277
00:14:09,960 --> 00:14:12,320
It was this same neighbour,
I thought if I rang his doorbell
278
00:14:12,320 --> 00:14:14,000
in the middle of the night,
he'd invite me in,
279
00:14:14,000 --> 00:14:17,960
and we'd have a huge banquet
of my favourite cereal.
280
00:14:17,960 --> 00:14:20,000
It turns out, that's not
what a "Frostie reception" is.
281
00:14:20,000 --> 00:14:22,960
LAUGHTER
282
00:14:25,960 --> 00:14:27,960
Wasn't any easier
when I was married.
283
00:14:27,960 --> 00:14:31,960
It turns out, Stalingrad to Berlin
in the back of a World War II tank
284
00:14:31,960 --> 00:14:34,960
wasn't the retreat my wife
wanted for her birthday.
285
00:14:34,960 --> 00:14:38,960
LAUGHTER
286
00:14:40,960 --> 00:14:42,960
I even began to feel sorry
for Meghan Markle.
287
00:14:42,960 --> 00:14:45,000
You know, wondering whether or not
to try and escape
288
00:14:45,000 --> 00:14:47,960
the obsessive scrutiny
of her husband's family.
289
00:14:47,960 --> 00:14:50,160
Tossing a coin,
only to see his grandmother's face
290
00:14:50,160 --> 00:14:51,960
looking back at her.
291
00:14:51,960 --> 00:14:52,960
LAUGHTER
292
00:14:53,960 --> 00:14:55,960
When I was a teenager,
293
00:14:55,960 --> 00:14:57,960
I had a friend
who went off the rails.
294
00:14:57,960 --> 00:14:59,960
I said to him, "Thomas..."
295
00:14:59,960 --> 00:15:03,960
LAUGHTER
296
00:15:06,960 --> 00:15:08,960
"..don't do that again,
we love you!"
297
00:15:08,960 --> 00:15:10,960
I wasn't sure how he'd react,
but, er...
298
00:15:10,960 --> 00:15:11,960
he was chuffed.
299
00:15:11,960 --> 00:15:14,960
LAUGHTER
300
00:15:16,960 --> 00:15:19,960
The people around us
were negative about everything.
301
00:15:19,960 --> 00:15:23,960
Yes, the oceans are being
filled with plastic,
302
00:15:23,960 --> 00:15:26,960
but just look how fish are adapting.
303
00:15:26,960 --> 00:15:31,960
LAUGHTER
304
00:15:36,960 --> 00:15:39,960
They were negative, too,
about my choice of career.
305
00:15:39,960 --> 00:15:41,960
They said it was foolish
to open a bureau for espionage...
306
00:15:41,960 --> 00:15:43,960
called Intelligence Ltd.
307
00:15:43,960 --> 00:15:46,960
LAUGHTER
308
00:15:48,960 --> 00:15:50,960
Sure, I'd had other jobs.
309
00:15:50,960 --> 00:15:53,000
My career as a photographer
was all a bit of a blur.
310
00:15:53,000 --> 00:15:54,960
LAUGHTER
311
00:15:54,960 --> 00:15:57,960
I was in computers for a while,
I didn't have much social contact.
312
00:15:57,960 --> 00:15:59,960
Well, apart from
going into restaurants,
313
00:15:59,960 --> 00:16:01,960
tripping up the waiter
and shouting,
314
00:16:01,960 --> 00:16:03,960
"The server's down!"
315
00:16:03,960 --> 00:16:05,960
LAUGHTER
316
00:16:10,960 --> 00:16:13,960
But I was determined to infiltrate
an organisation
317
00:16:13,960 --> 00:16:15,960
with branches all over this country.
318
00:16:17,960 --> 00:16:20,960
LAUGHTER
319
00:16:23,800 --> 00:16:24,960
LAUGHTER
320
00:16:24,960 --> 00:16:26,320
Counter-intelligence.
321
00:16:26,320 --> 00:16:29,160
LAUGHTER
322
00:16:29,160 --> 00:16:32,960
APPLAUSE
323
00:16:32,960 --> 00:16:35,960
First day I went in,
I picked up a lasagne,
324
00:16:35,960 --> 00:16:38,160
and read,
"Remove cardboard sleeve and film."
325
00:16:38,160 --> 00:16:40,960
LAUGHTER
326
00:16:42,960 --> 00:16:44,960
To this day, it's the most
boring video I ever made.
327
00:16:44,960 --> 00:16:46,960
LAUGHTER
328
00:16:48,960 --> 00:16:50,960
In the kitchen,
I was one of those cooks
329
00:16:50,960 --> 00:16:52,960
who shouts and swears a lot...
330
00:16:52,960 --> 00:16:54,960
then I discovered oven gloves.
331
00:16:54,960 --> 00:16:56,960
LAUGHTER
332
00:17:00,960 --> 00:17:03,960
I remember once
trying to prepare some broccoli.
333
00:17:03,960 --> 00:17:05,960
I said, "Listen, you're gonna
be boiled in a saucepan."
334
00:17:05,960 --> 00:17:08,960
LAUGHTER
335
00:17:08,960 --> 00:17:10,640
"Even then,
the kids aren't gonna eat you."
336
00:17:11,960 --> 00:17:14,960
I mean, at least onions
think you care about them.
337
00:17:14,960 --> 00:17:17,960
LAUGHTER
338
00:17:19,960 --> 00:17:22,960
In the bakery, my favourite
was millionaire's shortbread,
339
00:17:22,960 --> 00:17:24,960
or as millionaires call it...
340
00:17:24,960 --> 00:17:25,960
shortbread.
341
00:17:25,960 --> 00:17:27,000
LAUGHTER
342
00:17:27,000 --> 00:17:29,480
Or, as short millionaires
call it...
343
00:17:29,480 --> 00:17:30,960
AUDIENCE MEMBER: Bread.
344
00:17:30,960 --> 00:17:33,960
LAUGHTER
345
00:17:40,960 --> 00:17:42,960
.."difficult to reach biscuits."
346
00:17:42,960 --> 00:17:44,960
LAUGHTER
347
00:17:47,960 --> 00:17:50,960
Or, as bread
calls a short millionaire...
348
00:17:50,960 --> 00:17:52,960
Rishi Sunak.
349
00:17:52,960 --> 00:17:54,960
LAUGHTER
350
00:17:54,960 --> 00:17:57,320
APPLAUSE
351
00:17:57,320 --> 00:18:00,320
I tell you what else
is dangerous in a kitchen...
352
00:18:00,320 --> 00:18:01,960
is a leopard.
353
00:18:01,960 --> 00:18:03,480
LAUGHTER
354
00:18:06,320 --> 00:18:07,960
I... Well, it would be, wouldn't it?
355
00:18:07,960 --> 00:18:09,960
LAUGHTER
356
00:18:09,960 --> 00:18:13,000
I also observed that vegans always
look miserable in photographs.
357
00:18:13,000 --> 00:18:16,960
Probably because they resent having
to say the word, "Cheese."
358
00:18:16,960 --> 00:18:21,160
LAUGHTER
359
00:18:22,960 --> 00:18:25,320
My other favourite,
upside-down pineapple cake,
360
00:18:25,320 --> 00:18:26,960
or as they call it in Australia...
361
00:18:26,960 --> 00:18:29,960
LAUGHTER
362
00:18:30,960 --> 00:18:31,960
.."pineapple cake."
363
00:18:33,800 --> 00:18:36,960

on conversations between nations.

00:19:06,960 --> 00:19:10,640
I was reporting back to my handler.
I can't reveal her identity,
373
00:19:10,640 --> 00:19:11,960

374
00:19:11,960 --> 00:19:12,960

I reported back to her...

saying to another.

LAUGHTER
548
00:27:28,960 --> 00:27:32,480
The next thing I know, I'm driving
a car in northern Morocco.
549
00:27:32,480 --> 00:27:33,960
ENGINE RUMBLES
550
00:27:33,960 --> 00:27:34,960
The road is strangely bumpy.

LAUGHTER
552
00:27:36,960 --> 00:27:38,960
I look in the mirror,
I see I'm being followed,
553
00:27:38,960 --> 00:27:40,000
so I speed up.
554

TYRES SCREECHING
555
00:27:41,960 --> 00:27:43,960
They fire a couple of shots.
GUNSHOTS
556
00:27:43,960 --> 00:27:46,160
As they fired at me,
that means I can fire at them,
557
00:27:46,160 --> 00:27:47,960
cos I always play by the rules.
558
00:27:47,960 --> 00:27:50,960
I pull over by the side of the road,
but it says, "Residents' parking,"
559
00:27:50,960 --> 00:27:52,480
so I pull back out again.

561
00:27:53,800 --> 00:27:54,960
Always play by the rules.
562
00:27:54,960 --> 00:27:56,960
Just then,
we come to the edge of a town.
563
00:27:56,960 --> 00:27:58,960
A man pushes his cart into the road.
564
00:27:58,960 --> 00:27:59,960

Now, I'm off,
rushing through the marketplace.
568
00:28:05,480 --> 00:28:06,960
In and out, in and out.
569
00:28:06,960 --> 00:28:08,960
I get tangled up
in an old woman's washing line,
570
00:28:08,960 --> 00:28:10,960
there are trouser legs
either side of my head.
571
00:28:10,960 --> 00:28:13,640
If only there'd been a sign
saying, "No dungarees."

573
00:28:16,960 --> 00:28:19,960
I see the old woman's face,
she is but a voiceless victim.
574
00:28:19,960 --> 00:28:21,960
She lets out
a barely audible sigh...

MAN GROANING LOUDLY
576
00:28:24,960 --> 00:28:26,960
And with that,
a cigar falls from her mouth
577
00:28:26,960 --> 00:28:27,960
and sets light to the laundry.
578
00:28:27,960 --> 00:28:31,960
Now, I'm down by the harbour,
leaping from rooftop to rooftop,
579
00:28:31,960 --> 00:28:32,960
and as I go from one to another...
580
00:28:33,960 --> 00:28:35,800
..I have a sudden thought.
581
00:28:36,960 --> 00:28:40,960
Maybe we are all spies,
582
00:28:40,960 --> 00:28:44,800
and we all have
exactly the same secret.

Even if we don't,
that is the only thing
589

when your life
flashes before your eyes,
593
00:30:01,960 --> 00:30:04,000
and God says to you, "What's that?"
You'll have to say,
594
00:30:04,000 --> 00:30:05,960
"I didn't know then,
and I don't know now!"

I manage to swim ashore.
599
00:30:20,960 --> 00:30:24,960
I come face-to-face with a pair
of very, very, very long legs.
600
00:30:24,960 --> 00:30:27,960
This can only mean one thing,
some sort of daddy longlegs.

602
00:30:29,320 --> 00:30:31,480
No, no. It's very much

this means I'm gonna have to
use my most deadly weapon...

I was up north the other day,
the North of England,
611
00:30:53,960 --> 00:30:56,320
I saw a sign saying
"Bury Crematorium."

00:38:17,960 --> 00:38:19,960
LAUGHTER
727
00:38:19,960 --> 00:38:21,960
LIGHT APPLAUSE
728
00:38:21,960 --> 00:38:22,960
I've come to talk to you again.
729
00:38:23,960 --> 00:38:25,960
The sound of...
730
00:38:25,960 --> 00:38:26,960
Silence!
731
00:38:28,960 --> 00:38:31,960
Are you still angry
I stole your radiator?
732
00:38:33,800 --> 00:38:34,960
You're getting warmer.
733
00:38:34,960 --> 00:38:36,960
LAUGHTER
734
00:38:38,640 --> 00:38:39,960
I know what you're trying to do,
735
00:38:39,960 --> 00:38:41,960
you're trying to
increase global warming.
736
00:38:41,960 --> 00:38:43,640
When you let me
go to the bathroom earlier,
737
00:38:43,640 --> 00:38:44,960
I saw thousands of radiators.
738
00:38:44,960 --> 00:38:46,960
No, one mirror, two radiators.
739
00:38:46,960 --> 00:38:49,960
Sometimes, if you stand
in the right place...
740
00:38:49,960 --> 00:38:52,000
Anyway...
741
00:38:52,000 --> 00:38:54,000
an old woman's laundry business
burnt down.
742
00:38:54,000 --> 00:38:55,960
You were nearby at the time.
I was brought up
743
00:38:55,960 --> 00:38:57,960
in that small Moroccan village.
744
00:38:57,960 --> 00:39:00,480
How come you don't
have a Moroccan accent?
745
00:39:00,480 --> 00:39:01,960
Trust me, it's better this way.
746
00:39:01,960 --> 00:39:05,640
LAUGHTER
747
00:39:05,640 --> 00:39:09,960
We also met when things
all got a bit lovey-dovey.
748
00:39:09,960 --> 00:39:11,960
That was you as well, was it?
Yes, I remember
749
00:39:11,960 --> 00:39:12,960
when you came out
of the sea towards me.
750
00:39:12,960 --> 00:39:15,960
You did that really weird walk.
751
00:39:15,960 --> 00:39:16,960
It was a pebble beach.
752
00:39:16,960 --> 00:39:22,960
LAUGHTER
753
00:39:23,960 --> 00:39:25,960
Do you remember how we escaped?
754
00:39:25,960 --> 00:39:27,960
Yes, we stole a horse
and rode to the border.
755
00:39:27,960 --> 00:39:30,960
Then, we came face-to-face
with a patrol.
756
00:39:30,960 --> 00:39:32,960
Fortunately, I remembered
a trick from a film
757
00:39:32,960 --> 00:39:33,960
to start kissing like lovers...
758
00:39:33,960 --> 00:39:35,960
but the horse
was having none of it.
759
00:39:35,960 --> 00:39:37,960
LAUGHTER
760
00:39:40,960 --> 00:39:42,960
There is someone else
you should meet.
761
00:39:43,960 --> 00:39:45,960
LIGHT LAUGHTER
762
00:39:46,960 --> 00:39:48,320
How's that even possible?
763
00:39:49,960 --> 00:39:50,960
HIGH-PITCHED: You'll never get aw...
764
00:39:50,960 --> 00:39:53,480
HE CHUCKLES
765
00:39:53,480 --> 00:39:55,960
LAUGHTER
766
00:40:01,480 --> 00:40:03,000
How dare you impersonate me?
767
00:40:03,000 --> 00:40:05,960
LAUGHTER
768
00:40:05,960 --> 00:40:10,000
APPLAUSE
769
00:40:10,000 --> 00:40:11,960
NORMAL VOICE:
Two can play at that game.
770
00:40:11,960 --> 00:40:14,960
LAUGHTER
771
00:40:15,960 --> 00:40:17,960
HIGH-PITCHED: You have a choice.
772
00:40:17,960 --> 00:40:21,960
Either, you spend three years
in solitary confinement.
773
00:40:21,960 --> 00:40:24,800
Or... two days in Gloucester.
774
00:40:24,800 --> 00:40:26,960
LAUGHTER
775
00:40:26,960 --> 00:40:31,960
APPLAUSE
776
00:40:36,960 --> 00:40:38,960
Those were a long three years.
777
00:40:38,960 --> 00:40:41,960
LAUGHTER
778
00:40:41,960 --> 00:40:44,960
At first, I tried to
call the nearest Uber...
779
00:40:44,960 --> 00:40:47,960
but the cars were all far too big
for the streets round there.
780
00:40:47,960 --> 00:40:50,160
LAUGHTER
781
00:40:50,160 --> 00:40:52,800
But who was the nearest driver?
782
00:40:52,800 --> 00:40:53,960
Oh, no, not him again.
783
00:40:53,960 --> 00:40:56,960
LAUGHTER
784
00:40:58,960 --> 00:41:01,480
I didn't trust Uber drivers, anyway.
785
00:41:01,480 --> 00:41:03,960
My sister was gonna marry one
in three years' time.
786
00:41:03,960 --> 00:41:05,960
Then it was four years.
787
00:41:05,960 --> 00:41:08,640
Then it was seven years.
788
00:41:08,640 --> 00:41:09,960
Then he went off with someone else.
789
00:41:09,960 --> 00:41:12,960
I felt like I was losing my mind!
790
00:41:12,960 --> 00:41:14,960
I desperately needed
to get out of spying.
791
00:41:14,960 --> 00:41:15,960
I desperately needed help!
792
00:41:15,960 --> 00:41:17,960
Hello? You've got to help me!
793
00:41:17,960 --> 00:41:20,960
LAUGHTER
794
00:41:22,000 --> 00:41:23,640
You're breaking up.
795
00:41:23,640 --> 00:41:25,480
LAUGHTER
796
00:41:25,480 --> 00:41:29,960
APPLAUSE
797
00:41:32,960 --> 00:41:35,960
LIGHT LAUGHTER
798
00:41:40,960 --> 00:41:43,640
It was around about that time...
799
00:41:43,640 --> 00:41:44,960
that I began to have an epiphany.
800
00:41:47,960 --> 00:41:50,960
Do you know, I've just realised
what an epiphany is!
801
00:41:50,960 --> 00:41:54,960
LAUGHTER
802
00:41:56,960 --> 00:41:58,960
I wish more people would.
803
00:41:58,960 --> 00:42:02,960
LAUGHTER
804
00:42:02,960 --> 00:42:03,960
I defected...
805
00:42:03,960 --> 00:42:06,960
but not before thinking long
and hard and doing the crossword.
806
00:42:06,960 --> 00:42:09,960
LIGHT LAUGHTER
807
00:42:12,960 --> 00:42:15,960
I'm still an agent,
but an agent for liability insurance
808
00:42:15,960 --> 00:42:17,320
in that small Moroccan town.
809
00:42:17,320 --> 00:42:19,000
Even got my own
organ delivery service...
810
00:42:19,000 --> 00:42:20,960
called "Liveroo".
811
00:42:20,960 --> 00:42:23,960
LAUGHTER
812
00:42:26,480 --> 00:42:29,960
It's true what they say, though.
If you give a man a fish...
813
00:42:29,960 --> 00:42:31,960
you can really freak him out
if it's at the bus stop.
814
00:42:31,960 --> 00:42:35,960
LAUGHTER
815
00:42:38,960 --> 00:42:40,160
But no-one wants to retire,
you know,
816
00:42:40,160 --> 00:42:42,960
be given a clock
and shown the door...
817
00:42:42,960 --> 00:42:44,640
especially if you work
for Al-Qaeda.
818
00:42:44,640 --> 00:42:48,960
LAUGHTER
819
00:42:52,960 --> 00:42:55,960
It had always
been my dream to set up
820
00:42:55,960 --> 00:42:57,960
a spy-themed optician's
on the high street...
821
00:42:57,960 --> 00:42:59,000
called "For Four Eyes Only."
822
00:42:59,000 --> 00:43:02,960
LAUGHTER
823
00:43:04,960 --> 00:43:06,320
I've just been very lucky,
824
00:43:06,320 --> 00:43:08,000
I've travelled to
every city in the world.
825
00:43:08,000 --> 00:43:09,960
Name a city, any city.
826
00:43:09,960 --> 00:43:11,160
MAN 1: Gloucester.
MAN 2: Gloucester!
827
00:43:11,160 --> 00:43:14,960
LAUGHTER
828
00:43:14,960 --> 00:43:17,960
FRENCH MUSIC PLAYS
829
00:43:17,960 --> 00:43:19,960
One day, I'm gonna do this show,
and then...
830
00:43:20,960 --> 00:43:22,960
..first bit, someone's gonna
shout out "phone".
831
00:43:22,960 --> 00:43:25,320
LAUGHTER
832
00:43:25,320 --> 00:43:26,960
Then, someone's gonna
shout out "Paris".
833
00:43:28,640 --> 00:43:30,960
That person's name is Dave,
he's self-isolating at the moment,
834
00:43:30,960 --> 00:43:32,960
should be back in the show
by Tuesday.
835
00:43:32,960 --> 00:43:36,320
LAUGHTER
836
00:43:38,480 --> 00:43:39,960
I know what I'm gonna do.
837
00:43:39,960 --> 00:43:40,960
I'm gonna write a screenplay
for a film,
838
00:43:40,960 --> 00:43:43,960
about a country singer
who's held hostage in a loft,
839
00:43:43,960 --> 00:43:45,960
and call it,
Johnny Cash In The Attic.
840
00:43:45,960 --> 00:43:49,960
LAUGHTER
841
00:43:51,800 --> 00:43:53,960
Where, as you know,
I've already written one film.
842
00:43:53,960 --> 00:43:57,960
Well, I've made the film, but now,
I've written the screenplay as well.
843
00:44:01,960 --> 00:44:04,960
LAUGHTER
844
00:44:17,800 --> 00:44:18,960
It's set in Newcastle.
845
00:44:20,640 --> 00:44:22,480
And it's a son
talking to his mother.
846
00:44:26,960 --> 00:44:27,960
GEORDIE ACCENT: "Hello, Mum.
847
00:44:31,960 --> 00:44:33,960
"I got your note.
848
00:44:35,960 --> 00:44:38,960
"So, I got you one of these."
849
00:44:38,960 --> 00:44:40,960
LAUGHTER
850
00:44:42,320 --> 00:44:43,960
And she replies...
851
00:44:45,640 --> 00:44:47,960
"No, no, no!
852
00:44:49,960 --> 00:44:52,960
"No, no, no, bonnie lad.
853
00:44:55,320 --> 00:44:58,000
"I wrote...
854
00:44:59,160 --> 00:45:01,000
" 'I like your lass...
855
00:45:01,000 --> 00:45:02,960
" 'Agnes.' "
856
00:45:02,960 --> 00:45:06,960
LAUGHTER
857
00:45:18,960 --> 00:45:19,960
"Oh, sorry, Mum.
858
00:45:21,000 --> 00:45:23,480
"Can you get us a Tizer?"
859
00:45:24,960 --> 00:45:26,960
And then she electrocutes him.
860
00:45:26,960 --> 00:45:30,960
LAUGHTER
861
00:45:34,960 --> 00:45:39,960
APPLAUSE
862
00:45:41,960 --> 00:45:43,960
I don't know,
maybe I'll spend the rest of my days
863
00:45:43,960 --> 00:45:46,000
looking out into the garden
through the French windows.
864
00:45:46,000 --> 00:45:47,960
Or, as they call them in France...
865
00:45:47,960 --> 00:45:50,960
LAUGHTER
866
00:45:50,960 --> 00:45:51,960
..fenetres.
867
00:45:51,960 --> 00:45:54,640
LAUGHTER
868
00:45:55,960 --> 00:45:58,960
Just then, I met Tom Cruise...
869
00:45:58,960 --> 00:46:00,960
CHILDLIKE VOICE: Hello!
870
00:46:00,960 --> 00:46:02,960
LAUGHTER
871
00:46:09,960 --> 00:46:11,960
Scientology is an evil religion.
872
00:46:13,960 --> 00:46:15,960
What do you mean,
"That's not possible"?
873
00:46:15,960 --> 00:46:17,960
Have you learnt nothing
from your missions?
874
00:46:17,960 --> 00:46:20,640
LAUGHTER
875
00:46:20,640 --> 00:46:23,640
Maybe I, too, have become
a bit hard on the inside.
876
00:46:23,640 --> 00:46:25,960
The other day, I sent a diagram
of a dissection of a rabbit
877
00:46:25,960 --> 00:46:27,960
to my little nephew.
878
00:46:27,960 --> 00:46:29,960
If I'd listened to
what he asked for,
879
00:46:29,960 --> 00:46:32,160
it was a picture of
"Miffy or Topsy".
880
00:46:32,160 --> 00:46:36,320
LAUGHTER
881
00:46:43,160 --> 00:46:46,960
But at least I found out
what's happening in the real world.
882
00:46:50,960 --> 00:46:53,960
AUDIENCE MURMURS
883
00:46:53,960 --> 00:46:54,960
Calm down.
884
00:46:54,960 --> 00:46:56,960
LAUGHTER
885
00:47:01,960 --> 00:47:03,320
FRENCH ACCENT: "So...
886
00:47:04,800 --> 00:47:05,960
"..how do you think it's all going?"
887
00:47:05,960 --> 00:47:08,960
LAUGHTER
888
00:47:11,960 --> 00:47:12,960
"Shut up!"
889
00:47:12,960 --> 00:47:15,960
LAUGHTER
890
00:47:15,960 --> 00:47:21,640
APPLAUSE
891
00:47:21,640 --> 00:47:25,960
"Hm, well, my door is always open."
892
00:47:25,960 --> 00:47:27,960
"No, no. That was part of
the problem in the first place.
893
00:47:28,960 --> 00:47:33,320
"Too many people coming over.
No! Brexit means Brexit."
894
00:47:33,320 --> 00:47:36,960
"Hm, if you ever write a dictionary,
remind me not to buy it."
895
00:47:36,960 --> 00:47:39,800
LAUGHTER
896
00:47:44,000 --> 00:47:45,960
"We're doing a lot better, now.
897
00:47:45,960 --> 00:47:47,960
"We're doing trade deals
with American farmers."
898
00:47:47,960 --> 00:47:49,960
"Pah! American animals,
they are pumped full of drugs.
899
00:47:49,960 --> 00:47:52,960
"They are not fit for anything.
All they are fit for..."
900
00:47:52,960 --> 00:47:54,960
"What, winning the Tour de France?"
CHUCKLES
901
00:47:54,960 --> 00:47:57,960
LAUGHTER
902
00:47:57,960 --> 00:47:59,960
"No, we've been
with you over 40 years,
903
00:47:59,960 --> 00:48:02,960
"you haven't given us
a single concession."
904
00:48:02,960 --> 00:48:09,160
"We spoke in English
the whole time you were here!"
905
00:48:09,160 --> 00:48:15,960
LAUGHTER
906
00:48:15,960 --> 00:48:19,000
"And we had to put up with
your ridiculous accent."
907
00:48:19,000 --> 00:48:20,960
LAUGHTER
908
00:48:20,960 --> 00:48:25,960
"The time has come to say goodbye,
or should I say...
909
00:48:25,960 --> 00:48:27,800
"au-reservoir"?
910
00:48:27,800 --> 00:48:32,480
LAUGHTER
911
00:48:32,480 --> 00:48:33,960
"No, you should not.
912
00:48:34,960 --> 00:48:38,960
"If you'll excuse me,
I have a very important meeting."
913
00:48:38,960 --> 00:48:40,960
MUMBLING IN FRENCH
914
00:48:40,960 --> 00:48:44,960
LAUGHTER
915
00:48:47,960 --> 00:48:50,480
SCOTTISH ACCENT:
"Oh, hello. How are you?"
916
00:48:50,480 --> 00:48:53,960
LAUGHTER
917
00:48:53,960 --> 00:48:58,480
"May I say that you are
looking beautiful, tonight."
918
00:48:58,480 --> 00:49:01,960
"Ooh!
919
00:49:01,960 --> 00:49:04,960
"Nobody's ever said that before!"
920
00:49:05,960 --> 00:49:08,800
"I don't know what it is,
there is something about you
921
00:49:08,800 --> 00:49:10,960
"that just makes me
want to kiss you."
922
00:49:10,960 --> 00:49:14,480
"Oh! That'll be the great big X."
923
00:49:14,480 --> 00:49:18,960
LAUGHTER
924
00:49:20,960 --> 00:49:22,800
"I was a bit worried about that,
925
00:49:22,800 --> 00:49:23,960
"if they take it
out of the Union Jack,
926
00:49:23,960 --> 00:49:25,960
"what will I be left with?"
927
00:49:25,960 --> 00:49:28,960
"It'll just be one big red cross.
928
00:49:28,960 --> 00:49:31,800
"Perhaps, that way,
they'll get some food parcels."
929
00:49:31,800 --> 00:49:36,960
LAUGHS IN FRENCH ACCENT
930
00:49:36,960 --> 00:49:40,960
LAUGHS IN SCOTTISH ACCENT
931
00:49:44,960 --> 00:49:45,960
"Tell me...
932
00:49:46,960 --> 00:49:48,960
"..do you like fudge?"
933
00:49:48,960 --> 00:49:51,960
LAUGHTER
934
00:49:53,960 --> 00:49:57,480
APPLAUSE
935
00:49:59,960 --> 00:50:01,960
Did you hear,
in the German city of Cologne...
936
00:50:01,960 --> 00:50:03,960
they sell a fragrance
called Birmingham?
937
00:50:03,960 --> 00:50:07,960
LAUGHTER
938
00:50:10,000 --> 00:50:12,960
I can say that,
cos I was brought up in Birmingham.
939
00:50:12,960 --> 00:50:14,960
How come I don't
have a Brummie accent?
940
00:50:14,960 --> 00:50:16,960
Trust me, it's better this way.
941
00:50:16,960 --> 00:50:18,960
LAUGHTER
942
00:50:20,960 --> 00:50:22,960
Of course,
with the pandemic and Brexit,
943
00:50:22,960 --> 00:50:25,800
inevitably, I ended up
doing a bit of panic buying.
944
00:50:25,800 --> 00:50:27,000
Yes, I bought two bananas
and a whistle.
945
00:50:28,960 --> 00:50:29,960
Well, I panicked.
946
00:50:29,960 --> 00:50:33,800
LAUGHTER
947
00:50:35,960 --> 00:50:39,480
But that night,
I ate like I'd never eaten before.
948
00:50:39,480 --> 00:50:42,320
LOUD CHEWING
949
00:50:42,320 --> 00:50:43,480
WHISTLE BLOWS
950
00:50:43,480 --> 00:50:45,000
LOUD CHEWING
951
00:50:45,000 --> 00:50:46,160
WHISTLE BLOWS
952
00:50:48,640 --> 00:50:51,960
After that, I set up a business
where people could change identity.
953
00:50:51,960 --> 00:50:54,960
With hindsight, I should probably
have got them to pay upfront.
954
00:50:54,960 --> 00:50:59,640
LAUGHTER
955
00:51:01,960 --> 00:51:03,960
What have I learnt from my job?
956
00:51:03,960 --> 00:51:06,960
Well, I think you probably
get what you deserve.
957
00:51:06,960 --> 00:51:10,960
Yes, see, only this week,
the world's laziest teacher died...
958
00:51:10,960 --> 00:51:12,960
and was buried
in an unmarked grave.
959
00:51:12,960 --> 00:51:18,960
LAUGHTER
960
00:51:21,960 --> 00:51:24,960
Never say, "You and whose army"
to the king.
961
00:51:24,960 --> 00:51:27,960
LAUGHTER
962
00:51:27,960 --> 00:51:29,960
Or indeed,
to Eric and Shirley Whosearmy,
963
00:51:29,960 --> 00:51:31,960
who don't speak to their son, Ewan.
964
00:51:31,960 --> 00:51:33,960
LAUGHTER
965
00:51:36,960 --> 00:51:39,000
And if you want to be
able to predict the weather,
966
00:51:39,000 --> 00:51:41,800
best thing to do
is to get some pine cones,
967
00:51:41,800 --> 00:51:43,960
Pinophyta strobilus,
968
00:51:43,960 --> 00:51:46,640
put them in a cupboard,
preferably a mahogany cupboard,
969
00:51:46,640 --> 00:51:48,960
at least 120m away from the house.
970
00:51:48,960 --> 00:51:51,960
And if, when you come in,
your pyjamas are wet...
971
00:51:51,960 --> 00:51:52,960
it's raining.
972
00:51:52,960 --> 00:51:58,960
LAUGHTER
973
00:52:02,960 --> 00:52:05,960
And if you own a dog that keeps
running off into crowded areas,
974
00:52:05,960 --> 00:52:07,960
so you have to shout his name
loudly after him,
975
00:52:07,960 --> 00:52:10,320
into those crowded areas...
976
00:52:10,320 --> 00:52:12,960
don't call him
"Death to the West."
977
00:52:12,960 --> 00:52:16,960
LAUGHTER
978
00:52:19,960 --> 00:52:20,960
And if you've got some leftovers,
979
00:52:20,960 --> 00:52:23,960
best thing to do is put them in
the fridge for a couple of days...
980
00:52:23,960 --> 00:52:25,960
and then throw them away.
981
00:52:25,960 --> 00:52:30,480
LAUGHTER
982
00:52:31,960 --> 00:52:34,960
After a while,
I met up with my family again.
983
00:52:35,960 --> 00:52:38,960
Soon, my daughter
was asking to go to the cinema,
984
00:52:38,960 --> 00:52:40,960
see the film, Bohemian Rhapsody.
985
00:52:40,960 --> 00:52:42,960
I said, "I will not let you go."
986
00:52:42,960 --> 00:52:46,960
LAUGHTER
987
00:52:48,960 --> 00:52:50,480
She said, "Let me go."
988
00:52:51,960 --> 00:52:53,960
I said...
Anyway, it went on like this.
989
00:52:53,960 --> 00:52:55,960
LAUGHTER
990
00:52:55,960 --> 00:52:59,160
In the event she was ill,
she couldn't go.
991
00:52:59,160 --> 00:53:01,960
She choked on a small teddy
in a trifle.
992
00:53:01,960 --> 00:53:05,960
LAUGHTER
993
00:53:08,960 --> 00:53:12,000
But at least I tried to warn her...
994
00:53:12,000 --> 00:53:13,160
Bear!
995
00:53:14,320 --> 00:53:18,000
Bear!
996
00:53:18,000 --> 00:53:19,960
FRIGHTENED: Bear...
997
00:53:19,960 --> 00:53:22,960
SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC PLAYS
998
00:53:22,960 --> 00:53:27,960
APPLAUSE
999
00:53:57,960 --> 00:53:59,960
Thank you, thank you, Cheltenham.
1000
00:53:59,960 --> 00:54:02,960
I've heard of
the Cheltenham races, er...
1001
00:54:02,960 --> 00:54:04,960
it seems to be
mainly white people.
1002
00:54:04,960 --> 00:54:07,960
LAUGHTER
1003
00:54:07,960 --> 00:54:12,960
APPLAUSE
1004
00:54:14,960 --> 00:54:15,960
You can use that.
1005
00:54:15,960 --> 00:54:17,960
LAUGHTER
1006
00:54:19,960 --> 00:54:20,960
Things are getting better, though.
1007
00:54:20,960 --> 00:54:23,960
Today, I saw a sheep pole-dancing...
1008
00:54:24,960 --> 00:54:25,960
..in a kebab shop.
1009
00:54:25,960 --> 00:54:31,960
LAUGHTER
1010
00:54:35,800 --> 00:54:37,960
Spent the whole of lockdown
in my parents' house,
1011
00:54:37,960 --> 00:54:40,960
it was strange being back there,
looking into my neighbour's garden,
1012
00:54:40,960 --> 00:54:42,960
where I used to steal apples
as a toddler.
1013
00:54:42,960 --> 00:54:44,960
They didn't mind me
stealing apples...
1014
00:54:44,960 --> 00:54:46,960
it was dressing up as a toddler
they thought was weird.
1015
00:54:46,960 --> 00:54:50,960
LAUGHTER
1016
00:54:53,960 --> 00:54:56,960
So, I come from a family
of failed magicians...
1017
00:54:56,960 --> 00:54:58,960
I've got two half-sisters.
1018
00:54:58,960 --> 00:55:00,960
LAUGHTER
1019
00:55:03,960 --> 00:55:06,800
APPLAUSE
1020
00:55:07,960 --> 00:55:09,960
My brother,
he's in his final year...
1021
00:55:09,960 --> 00:55:11,960
if he doesn't stop annoying me.
1022
00:55:11,960 --> 00:55:15,960
LAUGHTER
1023
00:55:15,960 --> 00:55:16,960
Any students here?
1024
00:55:16,960 --> 00:55:18,960
MAN: Yeah.
Yeah, what you studying?
1025
00:55:18,960 --> 00:55:21,960
Games development.
Games development?
1026
00:55:21,960 --> 00:55:22,960
Do you mean PE?
1027
00:55:22,960 --> 00:55:28,800
LAUGHTER
1028
00:55:32,160 --> 00:55:35,800
Or Cluedo?
HE CHUCKLES
1029
00:55:35,800 --> 00:55:38,320
Computer games?
Yeah.
1030
00:55:38,320 --> 00:55:40,960
Have you noticed,
if you google the phrase,
1031
00:55:40,960 --> 00:55:42,960
"Lost medieval servant boy..."
1032
00:55:43,960 --> 00:55:45,960
..it says,
"This page cannot be found."
1033
00:55:45,960 --> 00:55:47,960
LAUGHTER
1034
00:55:47,960 --> 00:55:52,960
APPLAUSE
1035
00:55:57,960 --> 00:55:59,960
Some of you are gonna
be doing that, tomorrow.
1036
00:55:59,960 --> 00:56:02,960
LAUGHTER
1037
00:56:05,000 --> 00:56:06,320
DELAYED LAUGH
1038
00:56:06,320 --> 00:56:08,960
HE CHUCKLES
1039
00:56:08,960 --> 00:56:10,960
Where are you up to?
HE CHUCKLES
1040
00:56:12,160 --> 00:56:13,960
"Peshwari Nan"?
1041
00:56:13,960 --> 00:56:16,960
LAUGHTER
1042
00:56:21,000 --> 00:56:23,960
Anyone here from outside
the United Kingdom?
1043
00:56:23,960 --> 00:56:25,000
MAN: Yes.
Yeah? Where you from?
1044
00:56:25,000 --> 00:56:27,960
New Zealand.
Ah!
1045
00:56:27,960 --> 00:56:28,960
Anywhere else?
1046
00:56:28,960 --> 00:56:33,960
LAUGHTER
1047
00:56:35,960 --> 00:56:39,160
People from New Zealand don't like
being called Australian, do they?
1048
00:56:39,160 --> 00:56:40,640
Oh, no.
1049
00:56:40,640 --> 00:56:41,960
AUDIENCE MEMBER HOLLERS
1050
00:56:41,960 --> 00:56:42,960
It's all right, I'm doing a joke.
1051
00:56:42,960 --> 00:56:45,000
LAUGHTER
1052
00:56:46,960 --> 00:56:48,960
Trust me.
HE CHUCKLES
1053
00:56:50,960 --> 00:56:51,960
People from New Zealand...
1054
00:56:54,800 --> 00:56:56,960
..don't like being
called Australian, do they?
1055
00:56:56,960 --> 00:56:57,960
People from Britain don't realise
1056
00:56:57,960 --> 00:56:59,960
there's an entirely
separate culture,
1057
00:56:59,960 --> 00:57:01,960
there's a great big sea
between the two places.
1058
00:57:01,960 --> 00:57:03,960
What people from Britain
don't realise...
1059
00:57:03,960 --> 00:57:05,960
I've messed it up now, cos of you.
1060
00:57:05,960 --> 00:57:08,640
LAUGHTER
1061
00:57:14,960 --> 00:57:15,960

LAUGHTER
1063
00:57:22,160 --> 00:57:23,960
It's all right,
I'm gonna do it, if it kills me.

LAUGHTER
1065
00:57:26,480 --> 00:57:28,800
Fortunately, we're not
videoing it or anything.

LAUGHTER
1070
00:57:40,960 --> 00:57:41,960
Shush.
1071
00:57:42,960 --> 00:57:44,960
I'll tell you when, all right?
1072
00:57:44,960 --> 00:57:47,960
People from New Zealand don't like
being called Australian, do they?
1073
00:57:47,960 --> 00:57:49,960
What people from Britain
don't realise,
1074
00:57:49,960 --> 00:57:51,960
it's an entirely separate culture,
1075
00:57:51,960 --> 00:57:54,800
there's a great big sea

1076
00:57:54,800 --> 00:57:55,960

LAUGHTER
1080
00:58:04,960 --> 00:58:07,960
What people from New Zealand
don't realise,
1081
00:58:07,960 --> 00:58:10,960
is that we in Britain don't care!
1082
00:58:10,960 --> 00:58:13,160

1086
00:58:27,960 --> 00:58:29,960
Anyone doing anything interesting
in Cheltenham, tomorrow?
1087
00:58:29,960 --> 00:58:32,640
MAN: No.
No, you've decided.
1088
00:58:32,640 --> 00:58:34,800
You've elected a spokesperson,
haven't you?
1089
00:58:34,800 --> 00:58:36,640
LAUGHTER
1090
00:58:37,960 --> 00:58:39,800
Anyone like to prove him wrong?
1091
00:58:41,960 --> 00:58:43,960
LAUGHTER
1092
00:58:43,960 --> 00:58:44,960
What's that?
1093
00:58:44,960 --> 00:58:46,960
MAN: Looking up
"Lost medieval children."
1094
00:58:46,960 --> 00:58:47,960
LAUGHTER
1095
00:58:47,960 --> 00:58:49,960
Looking for lost
medieval children...
1096
00:58:52,960 --> 00:58:54,960
Thanks, but, you know.
1097
00:58:55,960 --> 00:58:58,960
Is there any subject you'd like me
to talk about before I go?
1098
00:58:58,960 --> 00:59:00,960
MAN: Nursing.
What was that?
1099
00:59:00,960 --> 00:59:02,640
Nursing!
1100
00:59:03,640 --> 00:59:04,960
Nursing?
Yes.
1101
00:59:06,960 --> 00:59:09,960
LAUGHTER
1102
00:59:09,960 --> 00:59:11,480
I was talking to a nurse
the other day.
1103
00:59:12,800 --> 00:59:15,960
She said, "The main problem, now,
facing the NHS...
1104
00:59:15,960 --> 00:59:17,960
"is Holby City."
1105
00:59:17,960 --> 00:59:18,960
LAUGHTER
1106
00:59:18,960 --> 00:59:21,320
Actually, she might
have said, "Obesity."
1107
00:59:21,320 --> 00:59:24,800
LAUGHTER
1108
00:59:24,800 --> 00:59:28,000
APPLAUSE
1109
00:59:30,960 --> 00:59:32,960
My mum was a nurse,
my dad was a doctor.
1110
00:59:32,960 --> 00:59:34,960
They had six children,
we all left home early.
1111
00:59:34,960 --> 00:59:35,960
Well, they needed the beds.
1112
00:59:35,960 --> 00:59:39,960
LAUGHTER
1113
00:59:40,960 --> 00:59:44,960
I remember the birthday
I asked for that game, Operation.
1114
00:59:44,960 --> 00:59:46,160
Three years, I waited.
1115
00:59:46,160 --> 00:59:48,960
LAUGHTER
1116
00:59:48,960 --> 00:59:51,960
APPLAUSE
1117
00:59:53,960 --> 00:59:56,960
I think the most peaceful
Christmas I remember,
1118
00:59:56,960 --> 00:59:59,960
was when my mother mistakenly
covered the cake with temazepam.
1119
00:59:59,960 --> 01:00:02,960
LAUGHTER
1120
01:00:12,800 --> 01:00:14,960
My grandfather,
he's staying with us at the moment.
1121
01:00:14,960 --> 01:00:15,960
He's got a black eye.
1122
01:00:15,960 --> 01:00:18,960
I knew his room was too small
for a cuckoo clock.
1123
01:00:18,960 --> 01:00:21,320
LAUGHTER
1124
01:00:23,960 --> 01:00:25,960
DELAYED LAUGH
1125
01:00:25,960 --> 01:00:27,480
Well done.
1126
01:00:27,480 --> 01:00:28,640
DELAYED LAUGH
1127
01:00:28,640 --> 01:00:31,800
HE CHUCKLES
1128
01:00:31,800 --> 01:00:32,960
MAN: Sorry!
That's all right.
1129
01:00:32,960 --> 01:00:34,960
LAUGHTER
1130
01:00:34,960 --> 01:00:36,160
It's really fine.
1131
01:00:36,160 --> 01:00:37,960
LAUGHTER
1132
01:00:39,640 --> 01:00:40,960
My other grandfather...
1133
01:00:42,000 --> 01:00:44,960
..broke his leg by
standing on a doormat.
1134
01:00:44,960 --> 01:00:46,000
Probably should've
explained to him
1135
01:00:46,000 --> 01:00:47,960
the concept of a helter-skelter.
1136
01:00:47,960 --> 01:00:51,960
LAUGHTER
1137
01:00:56,960 --> 01:00:58,000
My other grandfather...
1138
01:00:58,000 --> 01:01:01,480
LAUGHTER
1139
01:01:01,480 --> 01:01:03,960
..he was a bank robber.
1140
01:01:03,960 --> 01:01:06,480
Trouble is, the rest of the family
were all police marksmen.
1141
01:01:07,800 --> 01:01:09,960
He died quite recently...
1142
01:01:09,960 --> 01:01:11,640
surrounded by his family.
1143
01:01:11,640 --> 01:01:14,640
LAUGHTER
1144
01:01:17,800 --> 01:01:18,960
My other grandfather...
1145
01:01:18,960 --> 01:01:20,960
LAUGHTER
1146
01:01:20,960 --> 01:01:23,960
..recently had to have
a camera inserted, internally.
1147
01:01:23,960 --> 01:01:25,960
But he was annoying
the wedding photographer.
1148
01:01:25,960 --> 01:01:30,960
LAUGHTER
1149
01:01:36,960 --> 01:01:38,160
My grandmother...
1150
01:01:40,960 --> 01:01:42,960
LAUGHTER
1151
01:01:42,960 --> 01:01:44,960
..she's been talking
about downsizing,
1152
01:01:44,960 --> 01:01:46,960
and now, she's in a little urn.
1153
01:01:46,960 --> 01:01:48,960
LAUGHTER
1154
01:01:54,960 --> 01:01:56,800
I was in a nativity play, once.
1155
01:01:56,800 --> 01:01:58,640
I was the man
who scares the children,
1156
01:01:58,640 --> 01:02:00,960
cos he comes into the hall
on the wrong day, to play badminton.
1157
01:02:00,960 --> 01:02:05,960
LAUGHTER
1158
01:02:12,960 --> 01:02:15,960
I went home for Christmas last year,
couldn't get in the door...
1159
01:02:15,960 --> 01:02:16,960
too many grandads.
1160
01:02:16,960 --> 01:02:19,320
LAUGHTER
1161
01:02:21,960 --> 01:02:24,160
Well, thanks for coming out
tonight, Cheltenham.
1162
01:02:24,160 --> 01:02:26,960
You've been very nice,
very nice, indeed.
1163
01:02:26,960 --> 01:02:29,160
LIGHT LAUGHTER
1164
01:02:29,160 --> 01:02:30,960
MAN: You're in Chelmsford.
1165
01:02:30,960 --> 01:02:32,960
LAUGHTER
1166
01:02:32,960 --> 01:02:33,960
I'm in Cheltenham.
1167
01:02:33,960 --> 01:02:35,960
LAUGHTER
1168
01:02:35,960 --> 01:02:37,960
Are you actually from Chelmsford?
1169
01:02:39,960 --> 01:02:42,960
LAUGHTER
1170
01:02:42,960 --> 01:02:44,320
Where do you live?
1171
01:02:44,320 --> 01:02:46,960
LAUGHTER
1172
01:02:47,960 --> 01:02:49,960
I'll rephrase it, why do you live?
1173
01:02:49,960 --> 01:02:51,960
LAUGHTER
1174
01:02:51,960 --> 01:02:55,960
LIGHT APPLAUSE
1175
01:02:55,960 --> 01:02:59,640
I'll leave you tonight...
before he gets to the stage.
1176
01:02:59,640 --> 01:03:02,960
LAUGHTER
1177
01:03:02,960 --> 01:03:05,960
I'll leave you tonight with this.
Horse whisperers,
1178
01:03:05,960 --> 01:03:07,960
what they do is they go
up to horses, and they go...
1179
01:03:07,960 --> 01:03:09,960
WHISPERING
1180
01:03:09,960 --> 01:03:11,960
And the horses go,
"OK, fair enough."
1181
01:03:11,960 --> 01:03:13,000
LIGHT LAUGHTER
1182
01:03:13,000 --> 01:03:16,320
Beware Chinese horse whisperers.
1183
01:03:16,320 --> 01:03:17,960
They go up to horses, and they go...
1184
01:03:17,960 --> 01:03:19,960
WHISPERING
1185
01:03:19,960 --> 01:03:21,960
That horse tells another horse.
1186
01:03:21,960 --> 01:03:24,320
LAUGHTER
1187
01:03:24,320 --> 01:03:27,320
That horse tells another horse!
1188
01:03:27,320 --> 01:03:30,960
By the end,
the last horse is going...
1189
01:03:30,960 --> 01:03:33,160
LIGHT LAUGHTER
1190
01:03:35,800 --> 01:03:36,960
BLOWS LIPS
1191
01:03:36,960 --> 01:03:37,960
LAUGHTER
1192
01:03:37,960 --> 01:03:39,480
APPLAUSE
1193
01:03:39,480 --> 01:03:41,960
That's all from me.
Thank you for coming!
