Would you like to inspect the original subtitles? These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated:
1
00:00:01,793 --> 00:00:05,298
That's a hairdresser's car. You're talking out
the place where the sun don't shine, Terry.
2
00:00:05,323 --> 00:00:07,768
You're 0nly paying for the name.
Talk to me when you've driven one.
3
00:00:07,793 --> 00:00:09,328
Look up.
I don't need to drive one.
4
00:00:09,353 --> 00:00:12,328
Look down.
Three cylinder, 1.5?
5
00:00:12,353 --> 00:00:14,848
Yeah, but, Terry, you're
not the target buyer.
6
00:00:14,873 --> 00:00:16,178
Nor are you, mate.
7
00:00:16,203 --> 00:00:18,568
Hey, watch where youtre looking,
you. You told me to look there.
8
00:00:18,593 --> 00:00:19,818
Not like that I didntt.
9
00:00:19,843 --> 00:00:21,618
I should report you.
What are you like?
10
00:00:21,643 --> 00:00:23,468
No, d-don't do that.
I'm not like anything.
11
00:00:23,493 --> 00:00:25,208
Please don't report me,
I'll get suspended.
12
00:00:25,233 --> 00:00:27,098
I tm only playing.
13
00:00:27,123 --> 00:00:28,968
You dontt need to worry about me.
14
00:00:28,993 --> 00:00:31,568
I tm more of an old -fashioned girl.
15
00:00:31,593 --> 00:00:33,269
SHE LAUGHS
16
00:00:33,294 --> 00:00:34,968
Your face!
17
00:00:34,993 --> 00:00:36,129
SHE CHUCKLES
18
00:00:36,154 --> 00:00:37,498
ALAN LAUGHS AWKWARDLY
19
00:00:37,523 --> 00:00:39,129
CHUCKLl NG CONTI NUES
20
00:00:42,913 --> 00:00:45,018
Yeah, get the Sport
to spec it up, mate.
21
00:00:45,043 --> 00:00:48,188
Clear the floor!
Titles in five, four...
22
00:00:48,213 --> 00:00:49,668
Is she new?
23
00:00:52,503 --> 00:00:55,738
This programme contains
some strong language
24
00:01:10,923 --> 00:01:12,298
SCATTERED APPLAUSE
25
00:01:12,323 --> 00:01:17,178
Hello! And welcome to This Time
with Alan Partridge...
26
00:01:17,203 --> 00:01:18,488
And jennie Gresham.
27
00:01:18,513 --> 00:01:22,468
And I couldn't begin without
saying a huge thank you to everyone
28
00:01:22,493 --> 00:01:25,328
who sent kind wishes to
Sam and me on 0ur engagement.
29
00:01:25,353 --> 00:01:26,818
So thoughtful. Thank you.
30
00:01:26,843 --> 00:01:30,578
Hey, we couldn't be, by the way,
more thrilled for you.
31
00:01:30,603 --> 00:01:33,908
The whole team has been as giddy
as school gir*. Aw, thank you.
32
00:01:33,933 --> 00:01:35,348
The St Trinian's types,
33
00:01:35,373 --> 00:01:37,259
not the modern 0nes
who edit their own faces.
34
00:01:37,284 --> 00:01:40,618
And, to that end,
I will now gift you this.
35
00:01:40,643 --> 00:01:43,058
It's a horse's shoe.
36
00:01:43,083 --> 00:01:46,418
Aw! Alan, that's lovely.
To bring me g00d luck?
37
00:01:46,443 --> 00:01:49,928
It...it was actual* given
to my mother in the '50s
38
00:01:49,953 --> 00:01:52,568
by an itinerant tinker or gypsy.
39
00:01:52,593 --> 00:01:57,658
Rumour has it that that is the shoe
that was worn by the horse
40
00:01:57,683 --> 00:02:00,198
that trampled that suffragette.
41
00:02:00,223 --> 00:02:02,408
Trying to remember her name.
42
00:02:02,433 --> 00:02:05,178
Emily Davison. No, the horse!
43
00:02:05,203 --> 00:02:07,928
So, yes, that is a lucky horse shoe.
44
00:02:07,953 --> 00:02:12,488
It literal* and metaphorical*
hoofed women into suffrage.
45
00:02:12,513 --> 00:02:16,098
Now, you may remember from last week
jennie's uncompromising
46
00:02:16,123 --> 00:02:18,818
interview with Armed Forces
Minister Patrick Hincliffe,
47
00:02:18,843 --> 00:02:22,738
over the failure to pay
pensions to war heroes,
48
00:02:22,763 --> 00:02:26,498
some of whom helped recapture
the Falklands for Margaret Thatcher.
49
00:02:26,523 --> 00:02:29,098
I've got to say, jennie, it was
a stunning piece of journalism.
50
00:02:29,123 --> 00:02:30,928
Thank you. TV journalism.
51
00:02:30,953 --> 00:02:33,178
Wel* thank you. I'm not
s0 sure the minister thought s0.
52
00:02:33,203 --> 00:02:36,708
You know, there will a*ays be those
people who categorise a woman
53
00:02:36,733 --> 00:02:38,648
asking tough questions as nagging.
54
00:02:38,673 --> 00:02:40,688
You know what I say? Let 'em!
55
00:02:40,713 --> 00:02:42,978
Because, at the end of the day
henpecking works.
56
00:02:43,003 --> 00:02:44,389
That's why hens do it.
57
00:02:44,414 --> 00:02:46,648
Now, just 48 hours later,
58
00:02:46,673 --> 00:02:49,338
the Government has announced
a change of direction.
59
00:02:49,363 --> 00:02:51,618
Let's take a l00k.
60
00:02:51,643 --> 00:02:55,538
And wetre off air. 30 seconds on VT.
61
00:02:55,563 --> 00:02:58,458
I spoke to the... Oh, Jesus, Lynn!
62
00:02:58,483 --> 00:03:00,618
My God, you should work for Mossad.
63
00:03:00,643 --> 00:03:03,259
I think they dress up as 0ld women
when they need to kill someone.
64
00:03:03,284 --> 00:03:05,628
The editor of TV Choice
phoned about the front cover
65
00:03:05,653 --> 00:03:07,498
of you and Jennie
dressed as cowboys.
66
00:03:07,523 --> 00:03:10,648
The one where she's
lassoing me, yes.
67
00:03:10,673 --> 00:03:12,428
Yeah...
68
00:03:12,453 --> 00:03:15,218
Lynn, if bad news had a smel*
you'd stink.
69
00:03:15,243 --> 00:03:16,888
They're not running it any more.
70
00:03:16,913 --> 00:03:19,139
They're doing a piece
on her and Sam.
71
00:03:19,164 --> 00:03:21,108
You're not going
to like the headline.
72
00:03:21,133 --> 00:03:22,858
They've dressed them in gold suits.
73
00:03:22,883 --> 00:03:24,648
"TV's new golden couple."
74
00:03:26,363 --> 00:03:28,938
They want to know if you'd
like to give them a quote.
75
00:03:28,963 --> 00:03:30,218
Absolute* not.
76
00:03:30,243 --> 00:03:33,188
That's like asking Jesus to
give judas a big Easter egg!
77
00:03:33,213 --> 00:03:34,928
ALAN EXHALES
78
00:03:34,953 --> 00:03:37,978
What's the most efficacious,
positive thing we can say?
79
00:03:38,003 --> 00:03:39,538
Hmm...
80
00:03:39,563 --> 00:03:43,898
How about, "A spokeswoman said,
Mr Partridge supports this union."
81
00:03:43,923 --> 00:03:45,648
Perfect.
just change it to "spokesman".
82
00:03:47,323 --> 00:03:52,498
Oh, Ruth, sorry again for the
misunderstanding with your father.
83
00:03:52,523 --> 00:03:53,928
Water under the bridge. Yeah.
84
00:03:53,953 --> 00:03:56,218
It's just that I 'd just not
seen him in the studio before
85
00:03:56,243 --> 00:03:59,928
and the reason I said, "I thought
I told you to wait in the car,"
86
00:03:59,953 --> 00:04:02,498
was because I mist00k him
for my Uber driver.
87
00:04:02,523 --> 00:04:04,108
I don't know if you know
but the picture
88
00:04:04,133 --> 00:04:05,928
they show on the app is quite small.
89
00:04:05,953 --> 00:04:08,108
To be honest, I quite
enjoyed watching you squirm.
90
00:04:08,133 --> 00:04:10,648
Hi, Ruth. She never gives me
a bloody inch, this one!
91
00:04:10,673 --> 00:04:13,108
Wetre going live in five, four...
92
00:04:15,093 --> 00:04:16,338
Welcome back!
93
00:04:16,363 --> 00:04:19,269
Now, as past of 0ur
Crackdown On Crime season,
94
00:04:19,294 --> 00:04:21,348
today we're l00king at punishment.
95
00:04:21,373 --> 00:04:24,698
Yesterday we heard your views
on the return of flogging.
96
00:04:24,723 --> 00:04:28,298
But today, is mass imprisonment
still g00d policy?
97
00:04:28,323 --> 00:04:31,578
Ruth Duggan joins us to tell us
about a very different approach.
98
00:04:31,603 --> 00:04:34,418
That's right, Jennie, because
for the last 24 hours
99
00:04:34,443 --> 00:04:37,568
Alan has been
wearing an electronic tag.
100
00:04:37,593 --> 00:04:40,858
Voluntarily, I should add.
Yes, you should, if you don't mind!
101
00:04:40,883 --> 00:04:42,928
Sorry, I wouldn't want to
cast you in a bad light.
102
00:04:42,953 --> 00:04:44,658
Yeah, don't do that,
we'll get letters.
103
00:04:44,683 --> 00:04:46,938
Yeah, serious*.
Some people just don't like it.
104
00:04:46,963 --> 00:04:49,378
So, Ruth, tell us about the tag.
How does it work?
105
00:04:49,403 --> 00:04:52,738
So, tags allow probation services
to monitor compliance
106
00:04:52,763 --> 00:04:54,498
with home detention curfews.
107
00:04:54,523 --> 00:04:57,058
Essential*, if you aren't home
when you're meant to be,
108
00:04:57,083 --> 00:04:59,978
it raises the alarm.
Not quite right. OK?
109
00:05:00,003 --> 00:05:02,178
The latest tags,
like the one you wore,
110
00:05:02,203 --> 00:05:05,818
monitor all of the 0ffender's
movements, 24í7, using GPS.
111
00:05:05,843 --> 00:05:07,908
Right, I see.
I thought you told me...
112
00:05:07,933 --> 00:05:10,628
Allowing us to track
all their movements in real time,
113
00:05:10,653 --> 00:05:13,178
or call up anywhere they've been
over the last 24 hours.
114
00:05:13,203 --> 00:05:14,548
Wow. Right.
115
00:05:14,573 --> 00:05:18,418
Something civil liberties groups
might well take issue with. Yes.
116
00:05:18,443 --> 00:05:21,648
So this is your movement map for
the 24 hours that you wore it. Ooh.
117
00:05:21,673 --> 00:05:22,938
OK.
118
00:05:22,963 --> 00:05:25,708
And we can see that you made
a few excursions during the day.
119
00:05:25,733 --> 00:05:28,938
Starting with a trip to a swimming
p00* between 10 and 11am.
120
00:05:28,963 --> 00:05:30,818
Mm- hm. Put in a few lengths.
121
00:05:30,843 --> 00:05:33,568
Wel* we know from the p00l's
website that it was water aerobics
122
00:05:33,593 --> 00:05:36,298
from 10 till 11.
Yes. This week I did do that.
123
00:05:36,323 --> 00:05:39,858
Then there was a visit to
Svenson Cosmetic Solutions.
124
00:05:39,883 --> 00:05:41,088
Is that a clinic?
125
00:05:43,563 --> 00:05:46,948
You were there for an hour
just after 2pm.
126
00:05:46,973 --> 00:05:48,648
No idea.
127
00:05:48,673 --> 00:05:50,338
Wel* we know you were.
128
00:05:52,243 --> 00:05:54,368
No idea.
But it was you who went there.
129
00:05:56,733 --> 00:05:58,188
You don't remember?
130
00:05:59,473 --> 00:06:01,778
Nothing. It was yesterday, Alan.
131
00:06:01,803 --> 00:06:03,938
That's something a probation
0fficer might flag.
132
00:06:03,963 --> 00:06:05,508
Hair clinic?!
133
00:06:05,533 --> 00:06:08,508
Likewise your next stop,
a visit to a clothes shop.
134
00:06:08,533 --> 00:06:11,648
Ah, yes! McGovern's of Norwich.
Gentleman's outfitters.
135
00:06:11,673 --> 00:06:14,698
They made me a pair of twill
pleated notchback trousers
136
00:06:14,723 --> 00:06:16,218
for the G00dw00d Revival Festiva*
137
00:06:16,243 --> 00:06:18,508
which I needed to get fitted
with an elastic waist.
138
00:06:18,533 --> 00:06:21,988
I'm afraid when it comes
to my battle with my waistline,
139
00:06:22,013 --> 00:06:23,428
I'm waving the white flag.
140
00:06:23,453 --> 00:06:25,738
Not t00 se* conscious
to admit that, you know,
141
00:06:25,763 --> 00:06:28,548
which proves I wasn't trying to
conceal anything earlier.
142
00:06:28,573 --> 00:06:33,858
You went back and forth to the gents
0utfitters 16 times. That's correct.
143
00:06:33,883 --> 00:06:35,988
Which, again, a probation
0fficer would query,
144
00:06:36,013 --> 00:06:38,088
as it might imply illicit activity.
145
00:06:38,113 --> 00:06:41,098
Or even indicate mental
health issues. Could do.
146
00:06:41,123 --> 00:06:44,058
I mean, I do ten sudokus a week.
But, yeah, could do.
147
00:06:44,083 --> 00:06:46,648
Wel* you can see how it l00ks 0dd.
Not real*.
148
00:06:46,673 --> 00:06:50,348
I went to town to drop my trousers
off, then it started raining,
149
00:06:50,373 --> 00:06:52,978
s0 I ran home, then
I remembered I 'd driven into town.
150
00:06:53,003 --> 00:06:55,098
So I ran back to the
car park for my car,
151
00:06:55,123 --> 00:06:57,088
but realised I left
my parking ticket at home,
152
00:06:57,113 --> 00:06:59,259
s0 I went back home
to get my parking ticket,
153
00:06:59,284 --> 00:07:01,458
but couldn't get in because
I left my house keys in the car.
154
00:07:01,483 --> 00:07:03,658
I walked back to the car,
got the keys, walked back home,
155
00:07:03,683 --> 00:07:05,728
got the parking ticket,
walked back to town for the car,
156
00:07:05,753 --> 00:07:07,168
and drove it back home.
157
00:07:07,193 --> 00:07:09,628
Then McGovern's called to
say my trousers were ready.
158
00:07:09,653 --> 00:07:12,088
So I drove back int0 town,
got the trousers but I realised
159
00:07:12,113 --> 00:07:15,009
I 'd left my wallet at home s0 I
couldn't leave the car park again.
160
00:07:15,034 --> 00:07:17,498
Walked home, got my wallet,
then walked back to get my car,
161
00:07:17,523 --> 00:07:19,808
but I 'd left the car keys at home,
so then I walked back
162
00:07:19,833 --> 00:07:21,868
to the car and drove home.
163
00:07:21,893 --> 00:07:24,728
Then I realised McGovern had
given me the wrong trousers,
164
00:07:24,753 --> 00:07:27,009
s0 I drove back to town,
swapped them for the right ones,
165
00:07:27,034 --> 00:07:28,538
before walking home.
166
00:07:31,683 --> 00:07:33,658
That means you left your car...
Forget the car!
167
00:07:33,683 --> 00:07:36,348
I'm not bothered about the car. I
was in pain. My scalp was bleeding.
168
00:07:37,883 --> 00:07:41,418
Ruth Duggan, thank you very much.
You're welcome.
169
00:07:41,443 --> 00:07:43,628
Here's what's coming up
in the rest of the show.
170
00:07:44,683 --> 00:07:46,088
And wetre off.
171
00:07:48,294 --> 00:07:50,298
Howard. Howard. Howard!
172
00:07:50,323 --> 00:07:52,818
Sor... Sor-Sorry to bother you.
173
00:07:52,843 --> 00:07:55,149
I don't know what you think,
but I'm slight* worried
174
00:07:55,174 --> 00:07:57,628
about jennie going on about
this bloody engagement.
175
00:07:57,653 --> 00:07:59,628
Thrilled to bits for her. Obvious*.
176
00:07:59,653 --> 00:08:01,508
But I worry that for
the viewer it trivialises
177
00:08:01,533 --> 00:08:03,538
the rest of the content,
you know, drags it down a bit?
178
00:08:03,563 --> 00:08:05,019
Bit low- brow.
179
00:08:05,044 --> 00:08:07,058
It's a bit lTV, isn't it?
180
00:08:07,083 --> 00:08:08,978
Wel* it does play well. Yeah...
181
00:08:09,003 --> 00:08:11,698
I n Saudi Arabia, public beheadings
play well in football stadiums,
182
00:08:11,723 --> 00:08:13,168
but you can't help thinking,
183
00:08:13,193 --> 00:08:15,149
"Is that the best use of
a football stadium?"
184
00:08:15,174 --> 00:08:18,858
OK, I understand. But we do need to
think about the human interest.
185
00:08:18,883 --> 00:08:20,458
Mmm. Hmm. Mm- hmm.
186
00:08:20,483 --> 00:08:21,948
Simon's just learned to swim,
187
00:08:21,973 --> 00:08:24,538
perhaps we should spend
20 minutes on that?
188
00:08:24,563 --> 00:08:26,668
All right, let's go.
189
00:08:26,693 --> 00:08:30,848
And wetre back in five, four...
190
00:08:30,873 --> 00:08:32,009
Welcome back!
191
00:08:32,034 --> 00:08:34,388
Now, Norman Stanley Fletcher,
192
00:08:34,413 --> 00:08:35,728
the Guildford Four
ff.
193
00:08:35,753 --> 00:08:38,269
Slopping out, "Wh0's the daddy?"
194
00:08:38,294 --> 00:08:39,808
Mr Bridger,
195
00:08:39,833 --> 00:08:41,269
"You want some?"
196
00:08:41,294 --> 00:08:42,978
"Shut it, you nonce! "
197
00:08:43,003 --> 00:08:45,889
Ne*0n Mandela, Bobby Sands,
198
00:08:45,914 --> 00:08:48,258
Andy Cou*0n, the Wests.
199
00:08:48,283 --> 00:08:50,378
We all have 0ur favourite prisoner.
200
00:08:50,403 --> 00:08:52,658
But a new survey out this week asks
201
00:08:52,683 --> 00:08:55,428
whether 0ur prisons are
doing more harm than g00d.
202
00:08:55,453 --> 00:08:59,149
We sent Alan int0 the heart
of the criminal justice system.
203
00:09:01,393 --> 00:09:04,098
London, the year 2023,
204
00:09:04,123 --> 00:09:08,228
and leather-clad renegade
Nero Costa is on the run.
205
00:09:08,253 --> 00:09:10,818
With the police now able to detect
wrongdoing before it's happened
206
00:09:10,843 --> 00:09:14,708
by accessing 0ur brains over
Wi- Fi for signs of thought crime,
207
00:09:14,733 --> 00:09:16,218
police are able to apprehend
208
00:09:16,243 --> 00:09:18,538
s0-called pre-crimina*
without trial.
209
00:09:18,563 --> 00:09:22,258
My character, Ner0 Costa, is wanted
for the murder of a politician
210
00:09:22,283 --> 00:09:24,528
he is yet to even meet.
211
00:09:25,763 --> 00:09:27,458
Viva la revolucion!
212
00:09:27,483 --> 00:09:28,988
Aha!
213
00:09:29,013 --> 00:09:31,698
GUNFl RE
214
00:09:31,723 --> 00:09:34,458
The stuff there of some
dystopian sci-fi movie,
215
00:09:34,483 --> 00:09:37,019
current* seeking seed finance
and a distributor.
216
00:09:37,044 --> 00:09:39,418
I n real life, though, with
the thought police confined
217
00:09:39,443 --> 00:09:41,228
to the Guardian's comment pages,
218
00:09:41,253 --> 00:09:43,708
we re* on mass imprisonment
to curb crime.
219
00:09:43,733 --> 00:09:45,668
But some criminal justice
campaigners
220
00:09:45,693 --> 00:09:47,378
even take issue with that.
221
00:09:47,403 --> 00:09:51,458
Why? Wel* in '97' researchers
at Stanford University
222
00:09:51,483 --> 00:09:54,098
conducted a prison experiment
in which volunteers were given
223
00:09:54,123 --> 00:09:56,518
roles as inmates or guards.
224
00:09:56,543 --> 00:09:59,458
Within days, the guards had
become sadistic and crue*
225
00:09:59,483 --> 00:10:01,438
the prisoners servile and weak -
226
00:10:01,463 --> 00:10:03,388
a power dynamic familiar to anyone
227
00:10:03,413 --> 00:10:05,738
wh0's stayed with their
wife's parents at Christmas.
228
00:10:05,763 --> 00:10:07,988
I have personal experience
of the kind of damage
229
00:10:08,013 --> 00:10:10,068
the Stanford Experiment can cause.
230
00:10:10,093 --> 00:10:13,098
I n 2004, I'm ashamed
to say that I took part
231
00:10:13,123 --> 00:10:15,858
in a Channel 4 rehash
named Loose Screws.
232
00:10:15,883 --> 00:10:18,058
If you ever want to
see your kids again,
233
00:10:18,083 --> 00:10:19,899
you'd better start
showing some respect.
234
00:10:19,924 --> 00:10:21,378
Right, wh0's next?
235
00:10:21,403 --> 00:10:22,738
The series was never broadcast.
236
00:10:22,763 --> 00:10:24,348
Where's Vernon?
237
00:10:24,373 --> 00:10:26,418
Academics pour scorn on 0ur prisons
238
00:10:26,443 --> 00:10:28,608
from the comfort of their
leather big chairs.
239
00:10:28,633 --> 00:10:30,708
But how many have ever
been in a prison?
240
00:10:30,733 --> 00:10:34,738
None! Whereas I've come to sample
a bit of porridge first hand.
241
00:10:34,763 --> 00:10:36,508
Not the kind I have for breakfast.
242
00:10:36,533 --> 00:10:40,538
Organic 0ats, linseed, sliced nana,
243
00:10:40,563 --> 00:10:43,308
all washed out with piping hot
coffee and my tablets.
244
00:10:43,333 --> 00:10:45,188
BUZZER
But the... Hello?
245
00:10:45,213 --> 00:10:48,868
It's Alan Partridge,
I've got permission.
246
00:10:48,893 --> 00:10:51,388
But the kind of porridge
served at Her Majesty's pleasure.
247
00:10:51,413 --> 00:10:53,458
Where the 0n* piping hot coffee
248
00:10:53,483 --> 00:10:56,508
is the hot coffee thrown in your
face by a troubled teenager
249
00:10:56,533 --> 00:10:58,178
with a rubbish dad.
250
00:10:58,203 --> 00:11:00,978
That's right - borstal.
251
00:11:03,003 --> 00:11:05,338
Tissue, item, semi-used.
252
00:11:05,363 --> 00:11:07,738
Access key insignia
with leather toggle.
253
00:11:07,763 --> 00:11:11,098
Chicken shop wet wipes, five units.
254
00:11:11,123 --> 00:11:12,938
I didn't want to go
to a men's prison,
255
00:11:12,963 --> 00:11:15,238
but seeing as the women's prison
didn't get back to me,
256
00:11:15,263 --> 00:11:18,718
I would be incarcerated here,
in a youth offenders institute.
257
00:11:18,743 --> 00:11:20,019
Loads of 'ps, for the homeless.
258
00:11:20,044 --> 00:11:21,428
And the gloves?
259
00:11:24,613 --> 00:11:26,618
Why?
260
00:11:26,643 --> 00:11:29,188
To kick 0ff, I spent
what seemed like an hour
261
00:11:29,213 --> 00:11:31,149
with prison governor
Maurice Pe*.
262
00:11:31,174 --> 00:11:32,878
It's about carrot and
stick, isn't it?
263
00:11:32,903 --> 00:11:34,828
A*hough you can't
hit people with a carrot.
264
00:11:34,853 --> 00:11:36,818
He said the boys
nicknamed him Strangeways
265
00:11:36,843 --> 00:11:38,218
because he used to work there.
266
00:11:38,243 --> 00:11:39,868
But I'll let you be the judge.
267
00:11:39,893 --> 00:11:43,588
When these young lads walk through
these d00rs and become inmates,
268
00:11:43,613 --> 00:11:46,978
I stand them where you are now
and I say... What?
269
00:11:47,003 --> 00:11:48,258
"You blew it, kid."
270
00:11:48,283 --> 00:11:49,948
I say, " Forget
what might have been."
271
00:11:49,973 --> 00:11:51,308
Three words, Alan.
272
00:11:51,333 --> 00:11:53,029
Three words that are
banned in my 0ffice -
273
00:11:53,054 --> 00:11:55,338
shoulda, woulda, coulda.
274
00:11:55,363 --> 00:11:57,068
"Shoulda done this,
shoulda done that."
275
00:11:57,093 --> 00:11:58,298
You didn't.
276
00:11:58,323 --> 00:11:59,738
"Coulda done this,
coulda done that."
277
00:11:59,763 --> 00:12:00,978
You didn't.
278
00:12:01,003 --> 00:12:02,978
"Woulda done this,
woulda done that.
279
00:12:03,003 --> 00:12:05,378
"You didn't."
No, YOU didn't.
280
00:12:05,403 --> 00:12:06,899
I liked Maurice.
281
00:12:06,924 --> 00:12:09,228
His inspirational shtick
could be a little preachy,
282
00:12:09,253 --> 00:12:12,029
honed by Sunday mornings
spent as a Christian minister,
283
00:12:12,054 --> 00:12:14,258
but if he thinks
we have a soul inside us,
284
00:12:14,283 --> 00:12:17,948
like some sort of h0* spleen,
where's the harm in that?
285
00:12:17,973 --> 00:12:20,608
Because you know what the prize is?
It's a future.
286
00:12:20,633 --> 00:12:23,178
What's the prize?
The future?
287
00:12:23,203 --> 00:12:24,308
Wrong. No.
288
00:12:24,333 --> 00:12:26,458
Not TH E future - A future.
289
00:12:26,483 --> 00:12:28,029
There's a boy's eye.
290
00:12:28,054 --> 00:12:31,668
Because changing direction
is a choice.
291
00:12:31,693 --> 00:12:34,438
But whose choice? Mine?
292
00:12:34,463 --> 00:12:37,378
It slow* dawned on me Maurice
was asking questions he knew
293
00:12:37,403 --> 00:12:39,388
he and I both knew the answers to.
294
00:12:39,413 --> 00:12:40,878
Which fe* like cheating.
295
00:12:40,903 --> 00:12:43,468
Then again, a*hough a bit
simplistic for the likes of me...
296
00:12:43,493 --> 00:12:45,258
Where is it? Behind you.
297
00:12:45,283 --> 00:12:47,338
...it was perfect for daft lads.
298
00:12:47,363 --> 00:12:50,228
Governor Maurice has very
kind* allowed me to spend a night
299
00:12:50,253 --> 00:12:54,228
at the facility, in a r00m
current* closed for refurb.
300
00:12:54,253 --> 00:12:56,268
Right, well. Here it is.
301
00:12:56,293 --> 00:12:58,618
There's a l00, there. Modesty wall.
302
00:12:58,643 --> 00:13:00,748
Fee* like some
sort of epoxy resin.
303
00:13:00,773 --> 00:13:02,748
It's a little pokey,
304
00:13:02,773 --> 00:13:05,098
not unlike my assistant's lounge.
305
00:13:05,123 --> 00:13:07,818
The lighting is terrible,
no dimmer switches.
306
00:13:07,843 --> 00:13:10,149
Again, like my assistant's lounge.
307
00:13:10,174 --> 00:13:14,098
There's a few, uh,
materia* for ablutions.
308
00:13:14,123 --> 00:13:16,298
T00thbrush, t00thpaste, bog rol*
309
00:13:16,323 --> 00:13:19,258
soap, comb - quite a g00d one,
I'll have that.
310
00:13:19,283 --> 00:13:22,818
Uh, yeah, it's not the Ritz.
311
00:13:22,843 --> 00:13:25,228
It's, to be fair,
more like a Marriott.
312
00:13:25,253 --> 00:13:28,308
But tonight, for me, it's home.
313
00:13:34,813 --> 00:13:38,478
But before I got my head down,
it was time to chow down.
314
00:13:38,503 --> 00:13:40,948
Do I pay for this?
No-one pays, mate.
315
00:13:40,973 --> 00:13:43,258
Wel* the taxpayer does.
316
00:13:44,533 --> 00:13:45,818
But I was wary.
317
00:13:45,843 --> 00:13:46,978
Anyone sitting here?
318
00:13:47,003 --> 00:13:48,899
First impressions
matter in the clink.
319
00:13:48,924 --> 00:13:51,779
And these were some of the toughest
teenagers in Wi*shire.
320
00:13:51,804 --> 00:13:53,868
Leroy, Smithy
321
00:13:53,893 --> 00:13:55,948
and, to a lesser extent, Ken.
322
00:13:55,973 --> 00:13:58,149
The main thing was not to stand out,
323
00:13:58,174 --> 00:14:00,098
keep my head down and my nose clean.
324
00:14:00,123 --> 00:14:02,899
How did I do? Pretty wel* I think,
325
00:14:02,924 --> 00:14:05,048
my nervousness 0n*
occasional* spilling out
326
00:14:05,073 --> 00:14:08,159
int0 a fixation with
the availability of milk.
327
00:14:08,184 --> 00:14:10,029
Oh, there's milk?
328
00:14:10,054 --> 00:14:12,098
I didn't know there was milk.
329
00:14:13,483 --> 00:14:14,868
Can I have some milk?
330
00:14:14,893 --> 00:14:16,678
"Eight o'clock - New Faces,
331
00:14:16,703 --> 00:14:19,428
"with regulars Mickie Most
and Tony Hatch."
332
00:14:19,453 --> 00:14:23,668
Fortunate*, I found some 0ld copies
of the TV Times from the '70s
333
00:14:23,693 --> 00:14:26,769
and I was able to break the ice
by reading them out loud.
334
00:14:26,794 --> 00:14:28,828

338
00:14:39,333 --> 00:14:40,698
What channel's this?
339
00:14:40,723 --> 00:14:43,698
This is just Central. I haven't got
to the regional variations yet.
340
00:14:43,723 --> 00:14:45,138
You see, up until 20 years ag0,
341
00:14:45,163 --> 00:14:47,628
ITV were split in
'5 different franchises.
342
00:14:47,653 --> 00:14:51,058
So, if you were in Leeds you'd
be watching Yorkshire TV.
343
00:14:51,083 --> 00:14:53,338
I n Newcastle,
that would be Tyne Tees.
344
00:14:53,363 --> 00:14:55,518
Where I'm from, it was Anglia.
345
00:14:55,543 --> 00:14:57,258
What the fuck are you on about?
346
00:14:57,283 --> 00:14:59,068
ALAN SIGHS
347
00:15:01,333 --> 00:15:04,899
I magine lTV is a housing estate.
348
00:15:04,924 --> 00:15:08,138
There are '5 dealers, punting
a bit of this, a bit of that.
349
00:15:08,163 --> 00:15:11,978
Then one day tw0 big guys roll up,
blacked-out Range Rover,
350
00:15:12,003 --> 00:15:14,618
bit of muscle.
That's Car*on and Granada.
351
00:15:14,643 --> 00:15:19,598
They l00k around and say,
"We team up, this can be our manor.
352
00:15:19,623 --> 00:15:21,868
"We could sort these
tarts right out."
353
00:15:21,893 --> 00:15:26,188
So, they flash the cash,
bang a few heads together,
354
00:15:26,213 --> 00:15:31,628
couple of years later
it's floated as ITV PLC.
355
00:15:31,653 --> 00:15:34,268
All wrapped up with
a pretty little bow.
356
00:15:34,293 --> 00:15:36,878
ALAN LAUGHS CONTENTEDLY
357
00:15:36,903 --> 00:15:38,468
You couldn't make it up.
358
00:15:39,804 --> 00:15:43,698
For it was the night locked in my
cell that would be the acid test.
359
00:15:43,723 --> 00:15:46,779
Caged in a box with neither
Wi- Fi nor air freshener,
360
00:15:46,804 --> 00:15:48,858
I s00n fe* the wal* closing in.
361
00:15:50,843 --> 00:15:53,598
I was going slow* insane.
362
00:15:53,623 --> 00:15:57,678
My 0n* friend, a ping pong ball
I 'd named Ball Pong Ping.
363
00:15:59,083 --> 00:16:00,548
Oh God...
ff.
364
00:16:01,523 --> 00:16:02,909
DOOR UNLOCKS
365
00:16:04,413 --> 00:16:06,674
Morning.
366
00:16:06,699 --> 00:16:10,414
Wel* that wasn't t00 bad.
367
00:16:10,439 --> 00:16:14,025
Um, after the initial
anxiety had subsided,
368
00:16:14,050 --> 00:16:16,334
I found that the solitude was
quite usefu* I was able to
369
00:16:16,359 --> 00:16:19,744
unjumble a lot of muddled thoughts
that had dogged me for a while.
370
00:16:19,769 --> 00:16:23,704
For example, I devised a new
system for storing kitchen utensi*
371
00:16:23,729 --> 00:16:27,414
that ensures the most common* used
items are closest to hand.
372
00:16:27,439 --> 00:16:30,104
It works like this,
every time you use an item,
373
00:16:30,129 --> 00:16:32,414
it moves one space nearer
to the hob.
374
00:16:32,439 --> 00:16:35,905
Over time, the little used items
you bought from a covered market -
375
00:16:35,930 --> 00:16:38,814
apple corer, spaghetti
measurer, spiralizer -
376
00:16:38,839 --> 00:16:42,544
gravitate to the furthermost reaches
of the drawer through lack of use,
377
00:16:42,569 --> 00:16:45,584
while the essentia*, such as your
wooden spoon and tin opener,
378
00:16:45,609 --> 00:16:48,664
will a*ays be vying for
top spot where they belong.
379
00:16:48,689 --> 00:16:52,785
It's fair, tamper- pr00f
and great for your mental hea*h.
380
00:16:52,810 --> 00:16:54,264
Now, you've got to excuse me,
381
00:16:54,289 --> 00:16:58,144
I have to go join a group of
young men for a morning nosh.
382
00:16:58,169 --> 00:17:00,414
Nosh is cockney for meal.
383
00:17:02,349 --> 00:17:06,594
Just the man. Er, as discreet*
as possible, uh...
384
00:17:06,619 --> 00:17:10,494
How do I put this?
My latrine has a tissue issue.
385
00:17:10,519 --> 00:17:13,544
So, I'll leave it
in your capable hands.
386
00:17:15,329 --> 00:17:18,134
My conclusion, if prisoners
have the right attitude,
387
00:17:18,159 --> 00:17:20,664
the prison system is broad* fine.
388
00:17:20,689 --> 00:17:23,854
Like Ner0 Costa,
my initial misgivings were gone.
389
00:17:26,219 --> 00:17:30,544
I'm joined now by Simon Denton, a
man you'd never find in a prison.
390
00:17:30,569 --> 00:17:33,254
Broadm00r, more like!
Ha, yes. Now all week...
391
00:17:33,279 --> 00:17:35,264
A secure hospital. I ndeed.
392
00:17:35,289 --> 00:17:37,474
Now all week...
Diminished responsibility.
393
00:17:37,499 --> 00:17:40,054
Wel* we can diminish your
responsibilities if you like.
394
00:17:40,079 --> 00:17:43,214
Now, all week we've been seeking
views from about the country.
395
00:17:43,239 --> 00:17:46,194
Yes, indeed y. We asked whether
prison, community service,
396
00:17:46,219 --> 00:17:49,744
or a police caution were the best
way to punish non-violent 0ffences.
397
00:17:49,769 --> 00:17:53,584
Now, 0ften, in a chart like this,
people would refer to them
398
00:17:53,609 --> 00:17:55,254
as pieces of cheese. Or pie?
399
00:17:55,279 --> 00:17:57,134
Or maybe slices of cake?
400
00:17:57,159 --> 00:17:59,474
Or pie? Obsessed with pie.
401
00:17:59,499 --> 00:18:00,544
It's a pie chart!
402
00:18:00,569 --> 00:18:04,184
But today, to keep it themed,
I've gone for slices of porridge.
403
00:18:04,209 --> 00:18:06,474
Can you slice porridge?
If it's thick.
404
00:18:06,499 --> 00:18:09,574
So, a whopping 86ofo said
non-violent 0ffenders
405
00:18:09,599 --> 00:18:11,984
should 0nly get a police caution.
Down you come.
406
00:18:12,009 --> 00:18:14,184
Only 4ofo said prison.
407
00:18:14,209 --> 00:18:15,854
Now, if we... Wait, wait, wait.
408
00:18:15,879 --> 00:18:18,424
On* 4ofo?
409
00:18:18,449 --> 00:18:20,854
And 86ofo just said a police caution?
410
00:18:20,879 --> 00:18:22,474
For non-violent crimes.
411
00:18:22,499 --> 00:18:23,614
Are you sure?
412
00:18:23,639 --> 00:18:25,394
The pie don't lie! It's porridge.
413
00:18:25,419 --> 00:18:27,114
Right. Let's have a l00k
at the nation.
414
00:18:27,139 --> 00:18:30,754
So the bowls of porridge indicate
where people called in from.
415
00:18:30,779 --> 00:18:33,544
So we have Doncaster, we have Styal.
416
00:18:33,569 --> 00:18:36,294
Belmarsh? Belmarsh is there, yeah.
417
00:18:36,319 --> 00:18:38,834
Simon, these are all prisons.
Uh- huh.
418
00:18:38,859 --> 00:18:41,624
Sorry, is that not what you...
Why would it be?
419
00:18:41,649 --> 00:18:43,984
You said we're asking prisoners
what should we do with them?
420
00:18:44,009 --> 00:18:48,114
No, I said, we were asking - col0n -
421
00:18:48,139 --> 00:18:50,864
"Prisoners - dash - what should we
do with them?"
422
00:18:50,889 --> 00:18:53,254
Not... You asked prisoners
what we should do with them.
423
00:18:53,279 --> 00:18:55,474
Prisoners aren't going to
give you an objective answer.
424
00:18:55,499 --> 00:18:57,854
Chickens don't vote for Christmas.
Turkeys. But, yeah.
425
00:18:57,879 --> 00:19:00,194
This is not the place. But that's
not what it could have been.
426
00:19:00,219 --> 00:19:01,934
Fell short. What e*e have you got?
427
00:19:03,329 --> 00:19:04,864
ALAN SIGHS
428
00:19:04,889 --> 00:19:06,344
Now, every day this week,
429
00:19:06,369 --> 00:19:10,795
we've been meeting some of Britain's
most extraordinary ordinary people.
430
00:19:10,820 --> 00:19:14,214
Yesterday I met an ice cream man
who's secret* been giving
431
00:19:14,239 --> 00:19:16,394
ice creams to children for free.
432
00:19:18,089 --> 00:19:21,834
But today, jennie journeys north
to meet '2 recruitment consu*ants
433
00:19:21,859 --> 00:19:24,144
from Preston who
have formed a choir.
434
00:19:24,169 --> 00:19:26,544
Their name? Vocal Support.
435
00:19:26,569 --> 00:19:27,704
I ncredible.
436
00:19:27,729 --> 00:19:29,045
Here's her report.
437
00:19:30,579 --> 00:19:31,905
And wetre off.
438
00:19:33,050 --> 00:19:34,424
Keep taking the tablets.
439
00:19:34,449 --> 00:19:37,184
I do take tablets.
Wel* take more then!
440
00:19:37,209 --> 00:19:39,414
ALAN CLEARS HIS THROAT
441
00:19:39,439 --> 00:19:41,665
Hey, theytre right about you.
You do smell nice.
442
00:19:41,690 --> 00:19:43,864
I tve got a chair that
smells like you.
443
00:19:43,889 --> 00:19:45,424
A chair?
444
00:19:45,449 --> 00:19:47,655
Arentt you going to say
that I smell nice?
445
00:19:47,680 --> 00:19:48,824
You smell nice.
446
00:19:48,849 --> 00:19:50,154
Itts my new perfume.
447
00:19:50,179 --> 00:19:52,274
I tve got it on this
silver handkerchief.
448
00:19:52,299 --> 00:19:53,944
Have a sniff.
449
00:19:53,969 --> 00:19:55,144
ALAN SNl FFS
450
00:19:55,169 --> 00:19:56,665
Bring your nose down.
451
00:19:56,690 --> 00:19:58,214
Right down.
452
00:19:58,239 --> 00:19:59,434
What do you think?
453
00:19:59,459 --> 00:20:01,024
Mmm. Swimming p00*. Go0d smell.
454
00:20:01,049 --> 00:20:02,424
Yeah, it is. See ya.
455
00:20:02,449 --> 00:20:04,634
" People"? Yes, wel* who though?
456
00:20:04,659 --> 00:20:07,494
Because I don't think
I have been going on about it.
457
00:20:07,519 --> 00:20:09,864
And if there's someone on the team
that has a problem with me,
458
00:20:09,889 --> 00:20:11,944
I think I want to know who it is.
459
00:20:11,969 --> 00:20:14,194
Yes, fine, I will bear it in mind.
460
00:20:14,219 --> 00:20:15,224
Yeah.
461
00:20:16,569 --> 00:20:18,114
Did you hear that? Yeah?
462
00:20:18,139 --> 00:20:19,584
Someone has complained,
463
00:20:19,609 --> 00:20:22,154
saying that I'm talking
about my engagement t00 much.
464
00:20:22,179 --> 00:20:23,344
Whaaat?!
465
00:20:23,369 --> 00:20:25,224
That's ridiculous!
466
00:20:25,249 --> 00:20:26,785
Wh0 would say that? I ...
467
00:20:27,969 --> 00:20:30,184
God almighty, I've a g00d mind to
468
00:20:30,209 --> 00:20:32,014
round everyone up and
put a flea in their ear.
469
00:20:32,039 --> 00:20:34,024
Don't. They'll just say I'm a diva.
470
00:20:34,049 --> 00:20:35,474
No, n0, n0.
471
00:20:35,499 --> 00:20:38,374
There's a culprit at large,
I want someone fingered,
472
00:20:38,399 --> 00:20:40,424
and I don't care who he or she is.
473
00:20:40,449 --> 00:20:41,775
It's fine, Alan.
474
00:20:41,800 --> 00:20:43,655
Jennie, I'm happy to do it.
475
00:20:43,680 --> 00:20:46,024
Do you know what, then?
476
00:20:46,049 --> 00:20:47,754
If you think it would
help, then yeah.
477
00:20:47,779 --> 00:20:49,864
Actual* that's a g00d point, if...
478
00:20:49,889 --> 00:20:54,574
Cos when you make waves it can
make your own boat bob about a bit.
479
00:20:54,599 --> 00:20:56,874
And you don't want
bobby boat bother.
480
00:20:58,329 --> 00:21:00,424
Yeah, you're right.
I'll just ask people to stop
481
00:21:00,449 --> 00:21:03,184
passing on congratulations on air.
I think that is real* smart.
482
00:21:03,209 --> 00:21:04,864
Do you think I was
going on about it?
483
00:21:04,889 --> 00:21:06,554
I don't think you were
going on about it.
484
00:21:06,579 --> 00:21:09,154
And even if I did, I don't think
it trivialises the show, so...
485
00:21:09,179 --> 00:21:10,785
Trivialises...
486
00:21:10,810 --> 00:21:13,354
The person that spoke to Howard,
that's the word they used.
487
00:21:13,379 --> 00:21:17,374
Yeah, that's such an 0verused
word by people these days.
488
00:21:17,399 --> 00:21:19,824
It's ridiculous.
Think of another word! Mm.
489
00:21:19,849 --> 00:21:21,854
And wetre back on in five, four...
It's so overused.
490
00:21:21,879 --> 00:21:23,734
Is it? Yeah. Mm.
491
00:21:25,209 --> 00:21:28,294
Now 0ur final guest tonight
is a man who gave up the bright
492
00:21:28,319 --> 00:21:31,354
lights of showbiz, following,
as he'll tell us himse*,
493
00:21:31,379 --> 00:21:33,554
a brush with Alan Partridge.
494
00:21:33,579 --> 00:21:35,864
Go0d name for a show, that.
It is.
495
00:21:35,889 --> 00:21:40,014
And, having taken a new direction,
he's now helping 0thers do the same.
496
00:21:40,039 --> 00:21:43,504
Please welcome a man
I have seldom seen
497
00:21:43,529 --> 00:21:45,474
but never forgotten,
498
00:21:45,499 --> 00:21:47,234
Joseph B Beasley.
499
00:21:47,259 --> 00:21:49,474
To you and me, joe Beasley.
500
00:21:49,499 --> 00:21:52,354
Joe, you were
a comedian and entertainer
501
00:21:52,379 --> 00:21:57,994
and were invited 0nt0 a BBC chat
show, hosted by Alan here, in 1994.
502
00:21:58,019 --> 00:21:59,915
Let's just remind 0urselves
what happened.
503
00:21:59,940 --> 00:22:01,354
# Knowing me, knowing you... #
504
00:22:01,379 --> 00:22:04,944
This is the fresh face and g00d
looks of young comedian joe Beasley,
505
00:22:04,969 --> 00:22:06,665
pictured here on the right.
506
00:22:06,690 --> 00:22:08,544
Joe was hungry for
a shot at the big time.
507
00:22:08,569 --> 00:22:11,144
Joe Beasley, and Cheeky Monkey!
508
00:22:11,169 --> 00:22:15,344
Yet when I gave him a chance
on my own show, he fell apart.
509
00:22:15,369 --> 00:22:17,354
So here's a little joke, right.
510
00:22:17,379 --> 00:22:20,104
What do you get if you cross
Fred Flintstone...
511
00:22:20,129 --> 00:22:21,954
Er, n0, not what if you cross...
512
00:22:21,979 --> 00:22:23,734
LAUGHTER
513
00:22:23,759 --> 00:22:25,744
What d'ya...
What d'ya get if you erm...
514
00:22:25,769 --> 00:22:28,434
And we went up the big,
up the big dipper... Oh, God.
515
00:22:28,459 --> 00:22:30,864
And when he began
assau*ing the monkey,
516
00:22:30,889 --> 00:22:31,915
I had...
517
00:22:31,940 --> 00:22:33,024
...to in...
518
00:22:33,049 --> 00:22:34,304
...tervene.
519
00:22:34,329 --> 00:22:35,554
MONKEY SHRl EKS
520
00:22:35,579 --> 00:22:37,014
ECHOl NG: Don't touch it!
521
00:22:37,039 --> 00:22:39,284
It was an act of mercy.
522
00:22:39,309 --> 00:22:41,144
The wonderful joe Beasley
and Cheeky Monkey.
523
00:22:42,249 --> 00:22:43,954
When I posted
the animal back to him,
524
00:22:43,979 --> 00:22:47,504
I received the curtest of replies -
"Ape received".
525
00:22:47,529 --> 00:22:50,504
When a monkey bears his teeth,
it's an act of aggression.
526
00:22:50,529 --> 00:22:52,554
But when joe showed me
his this morning,
527
00:22:52,579 --> 00:22:55,354
I knew it was probab* just a smile.
528
00:22:55,379 --> 00:22:57,714
Oh, you must have thought
it would be your big break?
529
00:22:57,739 --> 00:22:58,824
Oh, I did.
530
00:22:58,849 --> 00:23:02,665
But you can see what happened.
I mean, everything fell apart.
531
00:23:02,690 --> 00:23:05,704
I went from her0 to zer0
literally 0vernight.
532
00:23:05,729 --> 00:23:08,994
15 straight summers with Hoseasons,
I was king of the camps.
533
00:23:09,019 --> 00:23:13,785
He was. It was all laid on for me,
the beer, the fags, you name it.
534
00:23:13,810 --> 00:23:16,734
Chalet gir*? Oh, yeah. Waitresses.
535
00:23:16,759 --> 00:23:19,274
Cleaners. And I lost myse*.
536
00:23:19,299 --> 00:23:21,154
It all came crashing down
on your show.
537
00:23:21,179 --> 00:23:22,994
Rehearsal's s0 important, isn't it?
538
00:23:23,019 --> 00:23:24,504
People have tried to comfort me.
539
00:23:24,529 --> 00:23:26,274
They said it could've been
much worse.
540
00:23:26,299 --> 00:23:29,644
Someone said, " If you'd gone
on any 0ther show in that slot,
541
00:23:29,669 --> 00:23:31,554
"twice as many people
would have seen it."
542
00:23:31,579 --> 00:23:33,074
Yeah. I'm not sure that's accurate.
543
00:23:33,099 --> 00:23:34,915
And that's always been
a great comfort to me.
544
00:23:34,940 --> 00:23:36,874
And then things
went from bad to worse?
545
00:23:36,899 --> 00:23:38,504
That was the tipping point.
546
00:23:38,529 --> 00:23:40,634
I mean, after that,
everything changed.
547
00:23:40,659 --> 00:23:44,024
The phone stopped ringing,
the b00kings dried up.
548
00:23:44,049 --> 00:23:47,204
And, wel* surprise surprise,
we started drinking.
549
00:23:47,229 --> 00:23:49,994
Right. And when you say "we", would
that be you and your partner,
550
00:23:50,019 --> 00:23:53,384
or your wife, or... No, n0.
551
00:23:53,409 --> 00:23:55,354
Oh, that's strange.
552
00:23:55,379 --> 00:23:58,234
Where's he gone?
He was here a minute ag0?
553
00:23:58,259 --> 00:24:00,024
Has anybody seen him?
554
00:24:00,049 --> 00:24:01,384
He's there! He was there!
555
00:24:01,409 --> 00:24:03,795
Where is he?
Has anyone seen Cheeky Monkey?
556
00:24:03,820 --> 00:24:05,354
He's there. He's there!
557
00:24:05,379 --> 00:24:07,024
Where? I n the case!
558
00:24:07,049 --> 00:24:08,184
Ah!
559
00:24:08,209 --> 00:24:09,594
LAUGHTER
560
00:24:09,619 --> 00:24:11,074
End of the pier!
561
00:24:11,099 --> 00:24:12,704
Hey, pack it in, you! Calm down.
562
00:24:12,729 --> 00:24:14,464
This is exact* their level!
563
00:24:14,489 --> 00:24:15,805
Oh, your breath!
564
00:24:15,830 --> 00:24:17,304
O00h- h00!
565
00:24:17,329 --> 00:24:19,864
Have you had that
Peperami out of my bag?
566
00:24:20,969 --> 00:24:23,294
He's nodding! He's nodding now.
567
00:24:24,539 --> 00:24:27,234
No! Leave it, he's not worth it.
568
00:24:27,259 --> 00:24:28,304
Everything OK?
569
00:24:28,329 --> 00:24:29,874
He just doesn't like a grass.
570
00:24:29,899 --> 00:24:31,554
Right. I was just trying to join in.
571
00:24:31,579 --> 00:24:33,925
Come on, you grassed him up.
572
00:24:33,950 --> 00:24:36,644
But, yeah,
I was the one in a bad way.
573
00:24:36,669 --> 00:24:37,994
I believe you ran up debts
574
00:24:38,019 --> 00:24:40,714
and ended up having to ch00se
between your house and your car?
575
00:24:40,739 --> 00:24:43,754
That's right, s0 I chose the car.
Cheeky says,
576
00:24:43,779 --> 00:24:46,944
"You can't drive your house,
but you can sleep in your car."
577
00:24:46,969 --> 00:24:49,024
As long as the car's r00my.
Was it...
578
00:24:49,049 --> 00:24:52,114
It was a 30-year-0ld
Ford Fiesta 1.1.
579
00:24:52,139 --> 00:24:54,024
Right. I mean, how the
heck do you sleep in that?
580
00:24:54,049 --> 00:24:56,545
Fold up the rear seats,
you break the passenger seat,
581
00:24:56,570 --> 00:25:00,434
and then you can fit
a lil0 in, diagonally.
582
00:25:00,459 --> 00:25:02,915
Is he OK? He's got a bit of
a bee in his bonnet,
583
00:25:02,940 --> 00:25:05,224
about when you cut my act short,
when I was on your show.
584
00:25:05,249 --> 00:25:07,354
Right. Leave it, Cheeky.
585
00:25:07,379 --> 00:25:09,424
I told you not to bring it up.
Just leave it!
586
00:25:09,449 --> 00:25:10,795
Wel* it was live TV.
587
00:25:10,820 --> 00:25:12,464
Yeah, try telling him that.
588
00:25:12,489 --> 00:25:16,104
OK, and that's when you reinvented
yourse* as a drugs counsellor,
589
00:25:16,129 --> 00:25:18,104
which is fantastic.
Wel* not straight away.
590
00:25:18,129 --> 00:25:21,394
After I turned a corner,
that's when Cheeky here,
591
00:25:21,419 --> 00:25:23,354
he started to spiral out of control.
592
00:25:23,379 --> 00:25:25,754
Oh? Cheeky?
Yeah, it's quite sad, really.
593
00:25:25,779 --> 00:25:27,665
He wanted to see his mother
for one last time.
594
00:25:27,690 --> 00:25:29,994
So he hitched a ride to
Chester Z00. Go on.
595
00:25:30,019 --> 00:25:31,914
But when he got there
it was t00 late.
596
00:25:31,939 --> 00:25:33,944
Go on. She'd been put to sleep.
597
00:25:33,969 --> 00:25:36,384
Oh. Did he go ape?
598
00:25:37,739 --> 00:25:39,904
Oh, p00r Cheeky.
599
00:25:39,929 --> 00:25:42,754
I think he wants you to come over
and apol0gise. Ladies and gentleman,
600
00:25:42,779 --> 00:25:44,994
boys and girls, do you think
he should apol0gise?
601
00:25:45,019 --> 00:25:47,184
Yes, go and apol0gise! Go on.
602
00:25:47,209 --> 00:25:50,904
All right, I'm very sorry, Cheeky.
I'll try not to joke in the future.
603
00:25:50,929 --> 00:25:53,234
It'll be all right now,
it was a bad time for him.
604
00:25:53,259 --> 00:25:54,714
You know, you weren't to know.
605
00:25:54,739 --> 00:25:57,434
He was working as a
rent monkey in Sa*0rd.
606
00:25:57,459 --> 00:25:59,024
What, for sex?
607
00:25:59,049 --> 00:26:02,634
And now, fast forward 25 years
from your showbiz career,
608
00:26:02,659 --> 00:26:05,164
and you're performing to
a different kind of audience.
609
00:26:05,189 --> 00:26:06,264
Yeah, that's right.
610
00:26:06,289 --> 00:26:09,394
We visit prisons
and we talk to young 0ffenders
611
00:26:09,419 --> 00:26:10,904
and those with addiction problems.
612
00:26:10,929 --> 00:26:12,594
Now, you're going
to give some advice
613
00:26:12,619 --> 00:26:14,434
to a couple of our This Time
viewers, aren't you?
614
00:26:14,459 --> 00:26:15,795
And Cheeky.
615
00:26:15,820 --> 00:26:18,634
So, I believe we've got an email
from Caroline in Milton Keynes,
616
00:26:18,659 --> 00:26:19,954
who asks...
617
00:26:25,289 --> 00:26:28,314
Is a monkey the right person
to be seeking advice from?
618
00:26:28,339 --> 00:26:30,434
Wel* the important thing
is to get to a safe place.
619
00:26:30,459 --> 00:26:31,795
Call 999.
620
00:26:31,820 --> 00:26:33,744
If you can't talk, dial 55.
621
00:26:33,769 --> 00:26:35,434
The police will flag it
as domestic abuse
622
00:26:35,459 --> 00:26:38,444
and be able to trace your call.
623
00:26:38,469 --> 00:26:41,824
Oh, yeah. Cheeky says, " Help is
out there. You're not alone."
624
00:26:41,849 --> 00:26:43,154
I was going to say that!
625
00:26:43,179 --> 00:26:45,744
Genuine* g00d advice.
Sound advice, there.
626
00:26:45,769 --> 00:26:47,254
Wel* we all need help.
627
00:26:47,279 --> 00:26:48,744
It's a jungle out there.
628
00:26:48,769 --> 00:26:51,384
Wel* maybe that's why
Cheeky fits in. What?
629
00:26:53,609 --> 00:26:55,354
I'll deal with this.
630
00:26:55,379 --> 00:26:57,904
What do you mean, "Cheeky fits in"?
631
00:26:57,929 --> 00:26:59,314
Well...
632
00:26:59,339 --> 00:27:00,884
Go on.
633
00:27:00,909 --> 00:27:04,194
Wel* monkeys like the jungle.
634
00:27:04,219 --> 00:27:05,675
Hey, n0!
635
00:27:05,700 --> 00:27:07,504
No, Cheeky, n0! You promised me!
636
00:27:07,529 --> 00:27:09,384
You'll ruin everything !
Not again, Cheeky!
637
00:27:09,409 --> 00:27:10,624
No, n0!
638
00:27:10,649 --> 00:27:12,604
Cheeky! You'll muck things up!
639
00:27:12,629 --> 00:27:14,434
Come on! Christ!
640
00:27:14,459 --> 00:27:15,994
J ENNl E LAUGHS
641
00:27:16,019 --> 00:27:17,304
I'm s0, s0 sorry.
642
00:27:17,329 --> 00:27:18,624
You're fucking mental.
643
00:27:18,649 --> 00:27:19,795
Apol0gies there.
644
00:27:19,820 --> 00:27:22,754
They do say, never work
with children or animals.
645
00:27:22,779 --> 00:27:25,104
I'm afraid that's
all we have time for.
646
00:27:25,129 --> 00:27:27,024
Joe, and of course, Cheeky Monkey,
647
00:27:27,049 --> 00:27:29,114
it's been a pleasure
having you on the show.
648
00:27:29,139 --> 00:27:31,904
I hope that didn't trivialise
any of the issues discussed.
649
00:27:31,929 --> 00:27:34,254
And that's all from This Time.
650
00:27:34,279 --> 00:27:36,634
Join us next time on This Time.
651
00:27:36,659 --> 00:27:38,114
Go0dnight.
652
00:27:39,549 --> 00:27:41,184
And wetre off.
653
00:27:41,209 --> 00:27:42,744
Wel* that went wel* ey?
654
00:27:42,769 --> 00:27:43,874
You real* hurt my neck.
655
00:27:43,899 --> 00:27:45,514
Oh, give over, you'll be all right.
656
00:27:45,539 --> 00:27:47,874
That stuff with the monkey,
that's all made up?
657
00:27:47,899 --> 00:27:49,744
Yeah, it's just a load of bollocks.
658
00:27:49,769 --> 00:27:52,624
It's a prop for kids
and vulnerable people.
659
00:27:52,649 --> 00:27:55,104
I've got a dozen Cheeky's
in a bin bag at home.
660
00:27:55,129 --> 00:27:57,314
Right.
So, how's it going with you, then?
661
00:27:57,339 --> 00:28:00,154
Ah, g00d, you know.
I'm back on BBC One.
662
00:28:00,179 --> 00:28:02,434
No! Up here.
663
00:28:02,459 --> 00:28:03,874
Yeah, yeah, g00d.
664
00:28:03,899 --> 00:28:05,184
Scale of one to ten?
665
00:28:05,209 --> 00:28:06,274
Four.
666
00:28:06,299 --> 00:28:07,904
I've been lower. Right.
667
00:28:07,929 --> 00:28:10,084
Call me.
668
00:28:10,109 --> 00:28:11,874
Any time. Right.
669
00:28:11,899 --> 00:28:13,805
And it'll just be you on your 0wn?
670
00:28:13,830 --> 00:28:14,874
Yeah.
671
00:28:17,580 --> 00:28:19,034
Abba-dabbad00.
