All language subtitles for Spike Milligan - Q5 (1969)

Good evening.

I was watching the television this evening,

and I thought,
"There's nothing like a good laugh."

Take two.

Good evening.

I was watching the television this evening,

and I thought,
"There's nothing like a good laugh."

Take three.

I was watching the television this evening,

and I thought,
"There's nothing like a good laugh."

Take four.

I was watching the television this evening,

and I thought,
"There's nothing like a good laugh."

Oh...

Oh, dear!

Oh, dear!

Oh, dear!

Good evening.

And pim-pom po-po-pom.

Puzzled? Let me explain.

These pim-pom po-po-poms

are the latest therapeutic device
to alleviate boredom.

Pim-pom po-po-pom.

People need be never lonely

when they've got a pair of
pim-pom po-po-poms to play with.

Recently, a lady writes,

"Sir, my husband died suddenly
after being run over by a steamroller,

but I have found great comfort
in my pim-pom po-po-poms.

Pim-pom po-po-poms."

Signed "Mrs..."

Married people, too, can sit together
by the fire and say "Pim-pom po-po-pom"

to each other all night long.

Real togetherness.
Pim-pom po-po-pom.

Let's see what fun can be had

with National Health Service pim-pom
po-po-poms in a room full of people.

Pim-pom po-po-pom!

Pim-pom po-po-pom!

Pim-pom po-po-pom!

Just a minute!
These pim-pom po-po-poms are mine!

Pim-pom po-po-pom!
They fell off while shaving.

- No, these...
- Pim-pom po-po-pom!

These pim-pom po-po-poms...

- Yes?
- ..are on loan from the British Museum.

Pim-pom po-po-pom!

Are you saying that these are early English
pim-pom po-po-poms?

-What?

- You are.
- Are you Jewish?

- No, but I can feel a nasty overdraft.
- Well, feel those.

Hello, sailor!

- Hello!
- Shut up!

Just a minute! I think these unpainted,
hairless pim-pom po-po-poms are mine.

- Pim-pom po-po-pom!
- Not bad for a first time.

- Well, try it.
- Let me try.

Perhaps they belong to England's
biggest land mass, Harry Secombe.

Pim-pom po-po-pom!
- Stop! o' his are bigger.

Those pim-pom po-po-poms are mine.

Impossible!

- Excuse me.
- Hey.

I have reason to believe that...
I'm Inspector Scrumption of Scotland Yard,

and these pim-pom po-po-poms are stolen.

I must warn you that any pim-pom
po-po-pom you say may be taken down.

Stop! You're all wrong!

It's John Bootham
of Fieldwick-something fame!

- No!
- These pim-pom po-po-poms are mine.

- I had them in the bath last night.
- So that's where they've been!

Pim-pom po-po-pom! Pim-pom...

Just a minute.
Who are you? Reveal yourself!

Mother!

Get him, boy!

That seemed to go all right.

Pim-pom po-po... pom!

Pim-pom pom-pom-pom.

Pim-pom po-po-pom.

Pim-pom po-po-pom.

Pim-pom... po-po-pom.

Darling!

The lady on the bed was Beth Owen,
who's done that sort of thing before,

only much later in the day
and for much less money.

There now follows a partly political
broadcast on behalf of the Labour Party.

Help!

And now on behalf of
the Conservative Party.

Oh, dear, oh, dear.

You've got to stop doing that.
You've got to stop that habit.

- I'm ready to go in.
- Right.

- Right. OK, it's fine.
- Ready?

Yes?

Er... Good morning, madam.

- Good morning.
- Morning, madam.

Morning.

I am Her... Er...

I am Herbert Sorackle, a salesman.

Me and my fellow directors
would like to know...

...if er you are getting sufficient sympathy
and understanding in your life?

- Not much. Why?
- Do you mind if we come in, madam?

- No.
- Ta.

Supposing you have been out
for a hard day's shopping.

Tired out, you get on the tube.

Does anybody...
Does anybody get up for you?

No fear. Not these days.
You have to drop bleedin' dead.

There's no need for you
to drop bleedin' dead, madam.

Me and my company
have invented something for ladies

that guarantees to get them a maximum
of sympathy and understanding.

What is it, divorce?

No, no, madam.

It is not a divorce. Er, Tom?

Oh, Christ!

Er... This is the er...

the Mark-1
Plastic Inflatable Sympathy Hump.

Say you are on a crowded tube.

- I'm on a crowded tube.
- You're on a crowded tube.

You want to sit down,
but no-one is getting up for you.

Beforehand, you have taken the precaution
of placing this bladder up your back, so.

Now, then.
All you have to do is to inflate him.

They are infallible, madam.

They're tried out
by 20 of our humpty-back inspectors

on the Morden-Edgware line.

Well, it looks real, but I don't fancy it.

No, of course you do not fancy it, madam.
Of course you do not.

This is the Quasimodo model...

...for men and boys.

No, for the lady,
we have something more delicate. Tom?

Ow!

Pardon me, madam.
Would you open your jacket, please?

Now, then. Once again,
just imagine you are on a crowded tube.

Er, you want to get a seat.

Then all you have to do is to inflate this.

Twins?

- Triplets?
- There.

It is the infallible false-pregnancy hump,
madam.

Now, then, if, on the other hand, you...

- Oh, hello, John.
- Dear, oh, dear, oh, dear.

- Have you had a bad day?
- I had to stand all the way on the tube.

Er... That is the end of that bit.

Here we see an English comic

Heavily disguised,
he leaves a secret British joke inside a tree.

It's not long before Russian agents
are on the scene, heavily disguised.

Ivan is not having it his own way. Oh, no.

British Secret Service comics are onto it
and soon have another traitor in the bag.

No, Ivan. You've got to be smarter than that
if you want to twist the lion's tail.

Here we see some of
the terrifying weapons being used

in this silent war
between the West and Russia.

That wiped the grin off Ivan's face.

And that's a shocking handshake
for the Ruskies.

That's one in the eye for Ivan,
who's gone black with rage.

And here's where Ivan's really slipped up.

Wake up, Ivan! You're losing!

Inside lane is Grady of Ireland,

They're getting ready now, and...

They're off!

It's Harrington up the inside lane.

Grady's pushing him.
Cambridge is the backmarker.

Now they're all coming into
the last 50m now

and it's still Harrington, Thomas,
Cambridge and Grady.

It's neck and neck. They're neck and neck.
They're about to come up to the tape.

It looks like Thomas! Now it's Grady!

Grady! Thomas! Now it's Grady!

It's Thomas! It's Grady! Thomas!

No, I think it was Grady, but it's a photo

He will go on working as normal.

Today sees the finale
of the annual Grandmother Hurling Contest

at Beachy Head.

The grandmothers and contestants
are just warming up for the final throws,

so over to Ivor Porcock.

Hello. It's a great day for the Grandmother
Hurling finals here at Beachy Head.

In the last three eliminations,
over 100 grandmothers

were successfully thrown out to sea,
after which only two returned back

in the penalty time
of one and a half minutes.

Let's go over to last year's champion hurler
and grandmother.

- Hello.
- This is Mr John Skwonk,

and his grandmother Mrs Ethel Skwonk.

- Good morning.
- Could you tell us, how old are you?

- 5'3“.

And er... what made you offer yourself
for this hurling contest?

Well, I am a widow,
my husband died, my cat died,

but er...
I didn't.

So my gardener came and did this.

Yes. My word!
We come down here in the good weather,

and give her several good hurls off the cliff
on the weekend.

We have some great fun
and the money comes in handy.

Hello. And this is Mr Arthur Granger
and his 80-year-old grandmother.

Major. Major.

- I beg your...
- And my grandmother, she's 91.

91! Well, well, well!
Goodness me! 91 years of age!

- 91.
- And the coroner said she was dead.

Er... He said she was dead,
and I got a second opinion. Mine.

And she... Where is she now?
She looked all right, so I thought I'd...

She's 91, you see,
and they go that way in the end.

- Now, Major...
- Can't help it.

When they go...
When you say they go that way...

- 91.
- Because she's 91?

Yes. I'm a major, and...

- Yourself? You are...
- A major.

I'm a major...

Could you tell us... This... Why are you...

I beg your pardon?

- Out there, you see the wind?
- Yes.

- What I wanted to know...
- Put a wrap on her, Derek!

- Put a wrap on her!
- Yes.

- Major...
- Ah, we haven't got any rocks.

- Yes.
- I'm telling them that you're 91.

- 91.
- Yes. Why are you using apparatus?

Oh, well, she's got...

got these er... weak ankles, you see?

And, well, she's had them
more than a week, actually. Two weeks.

Is this because the straps
that go round the... the particular straps...

Because the straps are on the blink.

They've got these hairy socks,
and I don't like the handheld one.

And you prefer the traditional method?

No, I like the hurl method.

- The hurl out to sea.
- Yes.

She's left me money in the will,
and there's the cottage.

I see. And this is...

Tell him.

So I think we're ready.

- That sounds...
- She's 91 already.

91. So I think we're ready
for the first on the... I mean...

- I'll just get her.
- For the first hurl.

The Major is just making sure
that the straps are...

- Fingers in your ears, Granny.
- I'll put my fingers in my ears.

And clench your teeth. Hear it go pop.

She's clenching her teeth now, and...

...the rocks, just flatten out.

He has instructed her...

He has instructed her now
to flatten out over the rocks when er...

She's about to go. Now...

- Are you ready, dear?
- I'm ready.

Fingers in your ears.

He... I think he's ready now.

Looking at his watch. He's...

Oh! Major!
Major, that really was quite wonderful.

I'd like to congratulate you.
It was a really wonderful hurl.

A wonderful hurl.

And now John Skwonk OBE
with his traditional freestyle hurl.

- Don't worry. The rocks will break your fall.
- All right, love.

He's ready now.
He wheels around once, twice.

He's building up into ever-increasing
circles!

Now, that was a beauty!
It certainly could be a close thing.

Here in Scotland
we have a very difficult political problem.

Oh, dear, oh, dear.

Yes, the colour problem in England.

The cost of colour television is prohibitive.

It is also beyond the pocket
of the ordinary viewer,

like Tom Skroke of Leeds, who says...

We have therefore decided to give you
a form of colour television

for those of you
who have only black-and-white sets.

- Yes?
- Good morning,

with the blue skies
and grey tinges in the east.

I'm Inspector McShagnasty.

- Inspector McShagnasty?
- Aye.

Haven't you a ruddy complexion
and deep, penetrating blue eyes?

Aye. And you must be Madam Fanny-Grope,

with the purple rinse, with the silver streaks
over the creamy ears.

Yes, and it contrasts vividly
with my spotty-pink complexion.

May I speak to your husband
in the front room,

where the red glow of the fire
reflects upon his yellow jowls?

- Of course. Do come in.
- Thank you in magenta.

Oh, may I draw your attention
to the lemon and green hall carpet?

And by Jove, look here! You have a blue
wall with a silver Georgian stripe in it!

Yes. Come in.

Oh! Who is this man
with the dark green tie and fawn raincoat?

I am Inspector McShagnasty,
and I arrest you,

your brown trousers
and your tartan slippers,

with a spot of orange marmalade
on the toe, for robbery.

Me? A robbery?

With a spot of orange marmalade
on my slippers?

I swear by my uncle's orange,
grey and black blazer

that it is a white lie.

Then why has your face gone a ruddy glow,

giving you purple veins
around your proboscis?

No, sir. Hold out those off-white arms
with the blue hairs

while I put on these bronzed handcuffs.

To prevent holding up the show
for normal commercials,

we will now include them in the sketch.

You'll never take me alive!

I would sooner jump out of this two pound,
nine and sixpenny,

all-aluminium, non-corrosive window.

Stop, or I'll shoot you
with this Smith & Wesson .45 pistol,

priced three pounds ten at all gunsmiths,
bullets extra.

You'll never take me,

or my double-support jockey
underpants, alive.

Stop, or I'll...

Argh!

Oh! Oh!

Oh! You made a hole
in his white nylon drip-dry shin!

Eighteen and six, a bargain!

And the blood.

The blood, it is red
and staining this Cyril Lord.

Darling, it'll soon come out with Crappo,

the washing powder
with the deep built-in suds,

sixpence a packet at all supermarkets.

Get some today.

Oh! He's dead!

No, I'm not!

The bullet was deflected

by my Hadworths
all-steel butane cigarette lighter.

Price: five shillings. Built to last.

I must warn you, sir, that I know
that they come in three distinct colours:

green, grey and glitter gold for the ladies.

It's the cigarette lighter
that fuels Scotland Yard.

♪ Get Hadworths ♪

You know it makes sense.

Good evening.

It's been a muggy sort of day, with the...

The general picture
is that there are a lot of these black lines

moving across the country
towards Northern Ireland.

They should be gone by tomorrow morning.

There also appears
what would appear to be

a Russian tank attack developing.

Er... As you can see here, here and here,

the number of coloured people
living in these areas.

And erm, also, those people
living near the Thames Estuary

will find a large blackboard
of about 100 miles long...

...running out to sea, with the letters,
about a mile high, "rain".

"Rain."

And noon tomorrow
will be just south of Iceland there.

So, let's see what son of weather
we're going to have tonight, shall we?

It appears to be all right.

So good night, and...

Pim-pom po-po-pom!

You've been watching Q5, the programme
without Julie Andrews or David Frost.

Ginger Rogers is now appearing
in a £5,000-a-week dressing room

at Drury Lane.

Isn't she, dear?

Yes.

Earlier in the programme, a lady wrote in
saying that her husband had died suddenly

after being run over by a steamroller.

She is now offering for sale
a rather unique bookmarker.

Good night.

Ow! Get her off! Get her off!

And the magic word this week is
"a tree fell on her."

“A tree fell on her.“

Did you hear the mess they made
of that beginning?

Oh. No, wait. I was erm...

I had beans on toast at the time.

Did you hear them?

Yeah, they didn't give me a proper cue
when we started.

Oh. Oh, didn't they?

- "Try your weight."
- Oh, I thought they did.

No. No, they didn't.

- They didn't. They didn't give me a cue.
- They did.

- They did.
- They didn't.

- How dare you!
- I never heard the cue.

Good evening.

My name is John Wells.

Gross take-home pay: nine pounds, 12
shillings, plus 18 shillings for each child.

This brings his money up to 498 pounds,
six and fourpence.

We must operate at once.

The pill: is it potent and does it?

Hear what a Roman Catholic priest said.

Two packets, please.

You see, Doctor,
we've had 23 children in 20 years.

We must operate at once.

You see, my husband and I
do not wish to take the pill

because we are Coman Ratholics.

Look, I want you to take a glass
of orange juice every night on going to bed.

- Before or after?
- Instead of!

No! It'll have to wait.

To take the pill or not to take the pill?

We put this delicate question to a random
assortment of practising sex maniacs.

- One said...
- Aargh!

- Another said...
- Aargh!

And another said...

♪ Ave Maria

Thus giving us two "Aarghs" to one
Ave Maria, putting the Catholics behind.

We asked the same question

of a cosmopolitan assortment
of part-time Protestants.

- Madam, do you take the pill?
- Yes.

- Why?
- Cos I like the taste.

- Why do you take the pill?
- Well, it passes the time.

I always keep a packet handy.

They help me concentrate on the job.

Terribly refreshing.

It stopped me smoking.

Hello, sailor!

Aargh!

There's a lot of it about.

Are you getting yours?

I wonder what the folks back home
are doing.

We're not doing anything.

The calling in of firearms and watery legs

has not prevented attacks
on innocent people.

However,
you do not need a licence for a custard pie.

This has not gone unnoticed
by the underworld.

Under the cover of pastry,
the first attack took place.

November 10th, The National Gallery.

Ten minutes later,
the Speaker of the House of Lords.

Then another attack.

Then, in quick succession,
David Frost, Hughie Green,

and almost... Mafia-inspired a {Tacks
were made on Russia's Khrushchev,

France's de Gaulle,
and America's own Cassius Clay.

Police want to interview this man.
They warn that he may be armed.

He may be left-armed or he may be
right-armed, or he may be short-armed.

Is he Jewish?

Everybody's Jewish!

Tense? Frustrated?

Let Instant Husband help you.

No mess, no fuss, just satisfaction.

It ruined m-my marriage.

Come in. Good morning, madam.
Er... May we come in?

- Yes.
- Thank you. Erm...

My name is Ernest Skwonk, a salesman,

and this is my fellow director.

You must excuse his diminutive proportions,
but on the way here, guess what happened.

- What?
- A tree fell on him.

Oh!

Madam, we are very worried about
your child's education.

- Oh?
- Oh! I mean, are you satisfied with him?

- Who?
- Who?

Your child's education, that's who.

- Well, he is way down at school.
- He's way down at school, madam.

He's way down at school.

What he needs, madam, is the entire weight
of the Knowledge Of The World behind him.

- Oh. Is that them?
- That is them, madam.

I mean, for instance, does your child know
that the Japanese crapo fly

can walk backwards on one leg
at two miles an hour?

No. He never tells me anything.

He never tells you anything, madam.
He never tells you anything.

Another thing. Do you know what
the intellectual jet set are saying?

No, I don't.

The Hanging Gardens of Babylon,
2001 BC onwards.

- Oh, is that what they're saying?
- That's what they're saying, madam.

That's what the Knowledge Of The World
is saying, madam.

Oh. Well, I've just made a cup of tea if...

Tea. Tea: grown on the slopes
of the Nilbery Hills, altitude 3,000ft.

- I get mine at the Co-op.
- Oh.

Madam, I think I should draw attention
to something you may not know.

- The Colossus of Rhodes.
- Oh, the Minister of Transport!

No, you're wrong, madam.
You see, ignorance is wrong.

No, the Minister of Transport
is not the Colossus of Rhodes. No.

The Minister of Transport is a giant nude
statue bestriding the Port of Alexandria.

- Fancy! What will they think
of next? - I'll tell you what
I'll think of next, madam.

I'd like you to examine
this Knowledge Of The World.

Open it... Open it at random.

Random.

"Rand... Randy... Random."

"Hausman Von Random.
German bladder manipulator.

1857-1759. Died of la grippe."

You see, madam, you already have
the edge over the neighbours.

Now, tell me, madam... Tell me, madam.

Would you be interested in buying the entire
set of the Knowledges Of The World?

Well, not today.

Tomorrow, then?

Look, madam, while we wait,
your child's mind is flowering in ignorance.

- Yes.
- Shut up.

Keep calm!

Keep calm!
War, war! Hate, hate!

Look, madam, I can see you're busy.

Would you be interested
in our spring economy pack,

A-to-B inclusive?

- How much?
- Erm...

Er... Two guins per vol.

I've only got 30 bob.

30 bob.

Two shillings. Four bob.

Six bob. Eight...

I wonder what the folks back home
are doing.

We aren't doing anything.

The police took a number of names
and addresses.

They also took several boxes of postcards,

a film projector and several appliances.

There's a police recruiting station
in your town.

Today I'm taking part
in a most extraordinary court case,

being held
at the Magistrates Court Paddington.

The Right Honourable Judge
will be played by John Wells, and I...

...and arriving here on time.

Will the prostitution commence?

My Lord, I hope to prove that, by negligence,

Steam Dick's Turkish Bath

caused such a considerable
personality change in my client

that not even his own mother
recognised him.

- Did she ever recognise him?
- No, my Lord. A tree fell on her.

Oh. How was this change wrought?

Well, he was changed from
considerable substance to a liquefied form.

When you say "liquefied form",
is he erm... dead?

- We don't know, Your Honour.
- What? Either he's dead or he's not dead!

- May I pray for your indulgence?
- Is he in court?

- Yes.
- Call him, then.

- Call Harry Secombe!
- Call Harry Secombe!

- Are you Harry Secombe?
- No. I'm Police Constable Z-Cars.

Gross take-home pay:
14 pounds, four shillings and ninepence,

with repeats 32 pounds, four and fourpence.

You see, I just carry the bucket.

May I clarify?

In that bucket is my plaintiff,
Harry Secombe.

- All of him?
- Yes.

- What's he doing?
- Nothing. He's lying quietly in the bottom.

May I elucidate?

If you must, but I must warn you,
it can cause blindness.

Thank you, my Lord.

My Lord, on 1st April, which is a Jewish
holiday in Morecambe and Wise...

...my client attended
Steam Dick's Turkish Bath.

There he was shown to a chamber,
stripped, and left to steam.

- To steam?
- Steam, Your Honour.

- Don't tell me a tree fell on him.
- No, my Lord. Something far worse.

Something far worse.

A faulty valve caused the heat
in his chamber to rise to some 800°C,

the melting point of the human body.

- Good Lord.
- An assistant rushed in, but alas, too late.

Mr Secombe now lay in a puddle
on the floor.

The assistant, being a sensitive man,

mopped him up with a sponge
and wrung him out into a bucket.

That bucket.

Silence! I will not have
under-rehearsed mumbling in this court

-Can we see Mr Secombe?
Constable, will you pour out the plaintiff?

Good old Harry!

And you are suing for negligence?

No, not for negligence.
We're suing for shod measure, my Lord.

According to the forensic report,
on entering the steam baths,

my client Harry Secombe
weighed 19 stone 10Ib

and gaining all the time.
According to a rough conversion table,

that should work out at
eight-and-a-half imperial Welsh pints.

May I draw the court's attention
to this, there's barely six pints.

And we are saying that Mr Sekroon

is deficient
by two-and-a-half imperial Welsh pints?

Yes, my Lord.

- Can't we top him up with a little tap water?
- I'm afraid not. It's against his religion.

And now...

...the defence rests.

Call Aristotle Onassis.

And now, in my new role as consenting
male announcer, the very...

the very real
and very disturbing problem of smoking pot.

When you buy a packet of pots...

...you are on the threshold
of a new hallucinatory experience.

Just look at this film.

Real groovy, man.

That experience was achieved
without the help of any drug at all.

All it needed was a piano, a pianist,
an old lady and an out-of-work plumber.

Breathe in.

Out.

- And say "ah".
- Ah.

Sit down.

I am very sorry.

- Is it bad, Doctor?
- It's very bad, I'm afraid.

Doctor, tell me. I must know the truth.

- Lady Teazle.
- Yes, Doctor?

Your husband's suspicions
are well founded.

- You've suffered a severe sex change.
- That's the third time this week.

What causes it?

- Elephants.
- You mean I've got elephants?

Yes, low down,
where they're very expensive.

Doctor, please,
are you sure I've got elephants?

Look at this slide of your blood.

Good heavens!

Look out! Look out! Run for it! He's seen us!

Get out the way!

Pab-zap-zowee.

There is no need for you to suffer
with elephants any more.

My company, Eye See Eye To Eye,
have come up with a brilliant new formula.

Here's how to keep your family healthy
and elephant-free.

And it's only three and nine a box.

Good evening.

So, no longer is the jet set
confined to the King's Road.

Some confinements
are taking place in Queen Charlotte's,

and even these are spreading.

Now, the centre of Hippiedom,
of course, is now in Neasden,

the gateway to NW10.

And the er... guru

of this new-found establishment
has installed himself... I beg your pardon.

-
should say has enthroned himself
in the new love nest...

...er at 3 Clack Lane, Ruislip.

A rather misleading name
to such a Valhalla of erotica.

Don't let this homely facade fool you.

Behind this photograph lives the Guru,
to give Ned Teeth his full name,

who has brought a strange, mystic beauty
to these otherwise drab surroundings.

Her name, the Honourable Lutitia Body,
heiress to a car-park empire.

- Oh, I'm getting these vibrations.
- I see.

I'm getting these erm, vibrations.
Just a minute.

- Now...
- Just a minute, man.

Like, I'm on gas now, man.

Has Ned Teeth always been your name,
Guru?

No, no. It used to be Ernesto Spedpiroldi...

But it was too loud,

so I changed it to...

shortened it to...

...I shortened it to Ned.

And so he shortened it to Ned,

a name that is redolent of mysticism.

Guru Teeth, prior to your finding

your new-found metaphysical manifestation,
what were you?

I was a trainee embalmer
at Leith Crematorium.

But there is...
It bugged me, man. It bugged me.

- There was no outlet for my natural talent.
- I see. And what were your talents?

I could play Abide With Me on the bones.

I see.
And er... you come from a musical family?

No, that's the funny part.
I don't know where I get it.

- Oh, man! I'm flying, man!
- So er... I see.

- So then you left the crematorium?
- Yes, yes. It bugged me, man.

I wanted to...
I wanted to get onto a new scene.

Right. There they go. There they go.

Guru Teeth, for the less knowledgeable,
could you tell us, what music is that?

That's your mystic Indian raga.

I see. And this is a record, is it?

No, it's a bunch of wogs in the next room.

- You mean Commonwealth immigrants.
- No, it's a bunch of wogs in the next room.

I see.

What?

Oh, man! I'm on it now, man.

Guru Teeth...

Yes, I see. I'm rather interested here.

Without physical contact,
how do you make them play?

Well, you see that mystic hole in the wall?

Well, every hour,
I bung through a tin of pussy-cat meat.

One tin for the raga

and two tins for Sergeant Pepper's
Curried Lonely Heads Band.

Later, of course...

Later we spoke to
the Guru's spiritual consort,

the Honourable Lutitia Body.

Er... Ms Body,
when did you first contact the Guru?

We met by accident.

He ran over me in a dustcart.

At the time, he was the Assistant Guru to
the Hendon Public Cleansing Department.

- I see. And was he Jewish?
- Yes, he was.

I see. And your function now?

Oh, I am his handmaiden.

I give him my all.

She gives him her all.

Oh, she don't half give that!

Yeah, every morning she...
Little darling, she is!

Every morning she comes into
the dressing room, nothing on.

Do you know what she gives me?
A cheque for 10,000 quid.

I see. And in return, what do you give her?

I slip her a receipt.

He slips her a receipt.

- Here he is.
- Oh.

Yes.

That's the washing-up water, you twit!

And that was the washing-up water,
you twit.

No, no, no. Let me explain to you, sir.
Let me explain.

The Guru is washing his hands
in anticipation of smoking.

Here. Oh, baby. Do you want a trip?

Er... What are they?

Woodbines.

And there we must leave the Guru
and his Teeth, and, of course, his flock.

Anyone wishing to make contact
with the Guru, write to "Swami Ned Teeth,

13 Tariq Alley, just off the...

"just off the Letsbe Avenue,
London, NW10."

♪ God save our gracious Queen

There we leave the Guru,
a man of many religious convictions,

three of which are pending.

This is a recorded announcement.

Ours is the age of new recording gimmicks.

Jimi Hendrix: wigs.

Sandie Shaw: no shoes.

Tessie O'Shea: no drawers -
one away and three in the wash.

One late result: John Lennon - one,
Yoko Cola - lost.

Every possible permutation
has been exploited,

so the need for originality
becomes more and more wax pressing,

wax pressing, wax pressing.

This man is Cedric Lunge, who has signed
a contract with a recording company

to leap off Beachy Head and sing Ave Maria
before he hits the rocks below.

♪ Ave

♪ Maria

He was killed outright.

This was a flagrant breach of contract.

The company sued the family
for the remainder of the song.

So the son, Hercules Lunge, took up
the challenge to clear his father's name.

Let us recap.

Now, Cedric Lunge, from point A...

...point A, managed to sing three bars
of Ave Maria before hitting point B.

Contractually,
he was 29 bars shod and dead.

Now, this meant that Hercules Lunge's
descent... a superb idea.

A pair of parachute socks.

Now, several tests were made using
a weighted body called Hercules Lunge.

All set, then, for the second attempt.

Another breach of contract.

The record company
was losing its patience.

The Lunge family was losing its people.

But then,
into the breach stepped Aristotle Lunge,

the great-great-great-grandson of Cedric,

the first of the singing,
jumping and dying Lunges.

And, as you can see,
he's broken his training,

both legs, an arm and his neck
to be with us tonight.

With him is his trainer, Tom Danger.

I wonder if you could tell us
in your own words, Aristotle, what exactly...

- Ow!
- ..what exactly you're up to.

I feel I have a destiny to fulfil.

- Could you elaborate on that?
- Yes.

How many bars are there left
of the elusive Ave Maria to complete?

- 13.
- Isn't that considered an unlucky number?

No, no!

You take my first marriage, 13th July,

the first wife, she gets killed -
tree fell on her.

Two years later, the second wife,

she gets killed,
13th July - tree falls on her.

And then the third wife, 13th July,
she gets killed.

Don't tell me a tree fell on her?

No, no. She died in bed.

- What happened?
- A tree fell on her.

How are you training Mr Lunge?

Well, you see, you've got to harden up
his nut for the rocks he's going to encounter

when he jumps over.

So every morning
I set him off singing Ave Maria,

then he drops half a hundredweight of rocks
on his nut, and that's it.

- What effect does that have on him?
- A lasting one.

- In other words...
- I don't know any other words.

- Are you Jewish?
- Am I Jewish? No, a tree fell on me.

You see...

You see, what we do is this.

Every night I hang him up on a meat hook,

upside down,
with his nut in a bucket of brine.

And we revolve him all night, slowly,
with a dog tied to a lead. Round he goes.

In the morning, I turn him up the other way,

and then I massage his nut with an iron bar

dipped in Nut... Nut...

...Nut Nourisher.

Then we give him another hundredweight
of rocks on his nut,

then I give him half an hour's belting
with an iron bar, then he has his breakfast.

- What does he have for breakfast?
- What does he have? Another belting.

I see. And do you think
this belting on the nut does the trick?

- No, no.
- Well, why do you do it, then?

I don't like him.

Well, as you see"

Now, then. Time for another workout,
chaps. Are you ready?

Good evening.

Would you now all stand
for the National Anthem?

♪ God save our gracious Queen

♪ Long live our noble Queen

♪ God save our Queen ♪

What a wonderful tune that is.

Lovely tune. My wife and I often sing it
of an evening, you know.

I say to her, "Molly, shall we go into the
lounge and sing God Save The Queen?"

She says, "Yes, John."
And we go down and sing it.

We often invite Ted and his mother
to come over and sing it with us.

It really is a lovely tune.
♪ God save our gra-

But seriously, folks.

Is it in fact like a dead palm tree -

Well, I think I got the best out of that joke.

Get the best out of this one, Sailor!
Whoopee!

Er...

That was John Wells in a censored excerpt
from the Mountbatten Story.

To find out whether people actually
did stand for the National Anthem,

we tried this simple experiment.
Example one - Kew Gardens.

And number two -The Mall.

♪ God Save The Queen

But then suddenly it's the Queen.
♪ God Save The Queen

Number four - the sewers.

Ooh!

♪ God Save The Queen

The Water Board.

♪ God Save The Queen

-Finally...
♪ God Save The Queen

Well, there, you see,
there are those people who just won't.

But most people generally do stand
for the National Anthem.

What we can't understand is
why they stand for Harold Wilson,

Edward Heath and Mrs Enid Stone.

I'm Enid Stone and I'm 62.

62! Isn't that wonderful,
ladies and gentlemen?

She's 62.

Great big hand for Enid Stone who's 62.

But what of those expatriates
who are beyond the earshot

of God Save The Queen?

There they lie, in the corner of
some foreign suit that is forever England.

We carried out a National Anthem survey
with Lord Louis Mountbatten,

who'd taken time off from filming Ben-Hur
with a cast of sailors.

Hello, sailor!

Harr-har-harr!

Using GPO National Anthem detectors,

we discovered that old people
living in these areas here,

there and there,
were totally without GSTQ -

God Save The Queen.

Yes, we at the Foreign
and Commonwealth Office

decided to invent a pill which would make
you hear the National Anthem in your mind.

- That's wonderful.
- Very good.

I heard every... every... note.
♪ God save... ♪

Of course, these National Anthem pills
have got very very nasty side effects.

But there are other far worse problems.

Let us visit the National Anthem
Addiction Centre at Sandringham.

Here we see many suffering
the advanced throes and acute agonies

He has a previous record, M'Lud.

On 1st January of the same year,

whilst a member of the Welsh Harp

Mixed measles. I see.

Is he an habitual invalid?

Er, yes, sir. I have his medical card here.

It goes back er... to the age of three.

It started in a small way with mumps
and repeated sore throat.

- Yes.
- And then he went on, until last year

he was arrested for congenital bronchitis.

I see.

Um, now then,
under National Health Service law,

a man is fit until he's proved ill.

Therefore, can we see the evidence
and this is late in arriving...?

Exhibit one. One pot of menthol vapour rub,

found on the scene of the ailment.

Exhibit two.

One nasal douche,

a packet of continental throat pastilles.

Plus, one box of Kleenex.

Several of which had been used.

Prisoner, in the face of this evidence,
have you anything to say?

- I don't feel very well, M'Lud.
- An admission of guilt.

Yes. You get much healthier.

but this is ridiculous.

He's heard of the Diet of Worms

But now tell me...
what about the waters of Wales?

Here is a group leader attacking a lake.

Here is yet another secret method
of removing a lake

from the iron heel of the English.

Of course, a task like this requires
tremendous control and willpower.

If you won't open the case, sir,

Brown Windsor souper!

I see you've had him an' all, have you?

He won't open his case,
he doesn't like the nylons.

from a little business trip to Switzerland

especially to interview him.

Ah, there he is now.

I've just flown back from
a small business trip to Switzerland

to interview him and here he is now.

The Head Customs Officer,

who was just flying back

Come and get me, Copper!

No good trying to make a break for it.
We've got every exit covered.

- Good. Carry on, Constable.

Yes, sir.

You swine!
