Copy !req
8. Some guy just staring at us.
Copy !req
9. Or maybe he was staring at me
cos he thought I was staring at him.
Copy !req
10. Maybe we looked at each other
at the same time, maybe that's all it is.
Copy !req
11. Naw, naw, naw, naw, he was definitely
looking at me when I looked at him.
Copy !req
12. Is he still looking at me?
Copy !req
13. Is he still looking at me?
Copy !req
14. So you check to see.
Copy !req
15. Cool.
Copy !req
16. Naw, he wisnae staring at us.
Copy !req
17. Maybe he was looking at me,
Copy !req
18. but in that way that you just
look right through somebody,
Copy !req
19. don't even know you're deein' it.
Aye, that's whit it probably wis.
Copy !req
20. Or maybe we did look at each other
at the same time.
Copy !req
21. Maybe... Naw, naw, he was definitely
lookin' at me when I looked at him,
Copy !req
22. I'm sure, cos I turned around...
Copy !req
23. Caught. Caught a dillion.
Copy !req
24. Caught. Caught sneaking back
for another wee look there,
Copy !req
25. that's me made a connection
with the guy now.
Copy !req
26. That's made a connection with the guy.
I've got to get oot of this.
Copy !req
27. I've got to get out -
the guy knows I'm interested in him,
Copy !req
28. not in a sexual way, but he knows
I'm thinking aboot him now.
Copy !req
29. He knows I'm thinking aboot him,
he knows that I know that he knows that...
Copy !req
30. Do you know what I mean?
I've gotta break this connection.
Copy !req
31. I'm getting on with my life, mate.
Let's the two of us just move on,
Copy !req
32. you know, I'm no' interested, mate,

Copy !req
37. Nup, you started it, I'm finishing it.
Copy !req
38. I caught you, you caught me,

Copy !req
39. Me and you all the way

Copy !req
40. What you looking at?
Copy !req
41. Sorry, false alarm.
Copy !req
42. Jacqueline, I've... I've had
a look through your CV,
Copy !req
43. but you don't seem to have
any experience in dry-cleaning.
Copy !req
44. Do you have any?
Copy !req
45. Naw.
Copy !req
46. Do you have any experience
of cleaning garments professionally?
Copy !req
47. Naw.
Copy !req
48. Working in a laundrette, ironing clothes
in a hotel, d'you have...?
Copy !req
49. Look, mate, I used to be a junkie.
Copy !req
50. Awright, I'm just gonnae
lay my cards on the table.
Copy !req
51. I used to be a junkie,
I've no' got any experience.
Copy !req
52. I lost three year of ma life on heroin,
Copy !req
53. and another five year
on a methadone programme
Copy !req
54. that was meant to get us aff it!
Awright, but that's me clean noo.
Copy !req
55. When I saw your advert
in the paper for the job,
Copy !req
56. dry-cleaners, I was like, "That's a sign,
that's gotta be a sign, mate,"
Copy !req
57. do you know what I mean?
Copy !req
58. I thought, "I've got tae have this job,
I've got tae have this job."
Copy !req
59. I'm no' looking for any
special treatment, mate.
Copy !req
60. I can just promise you
that I'll work my hardest
Copy !req
61. to get your clothes clean, the same way
that I worked hard to get mysel' clean.
Copy !req
62. D'you know what I mean?
Copy !req

Copy !req
65. I'm working for two now,

Copy !req
66. Look, it's OK.
Copy !req
67. Naw, it's no' OK, mate, I shouldnae

Copy !req
68. I've made a fool of mysel'.
Copy !req
69. Jacqueline. I had... I had a relative
Copy !req
70. who found themselves
in the same situation you're in
Copy !req
71. and I... and I wisnae there to help.
Copy !req
72. And I hope you don't mind
the personal reasons behind my decision.
Copy !req
73. I'd like tae offer you the job.
Copy !req
74. - You're jokin'.
- Naw.
Copy !req
75. - Can you start on Monday?
- Too right, mate.
Copy !req
76. Aw, that's brilliant news,
what a start to the weekend, eh?
Copy !req
77. Good excuse to go oot

Copy !req
78. What?
Copy !req
79. I said it's a good excuse to go oot
and get hammered this weekend,
Copy !req
80. starting work on Monday!
Copy !req
81. What did you just say to me?
Copy !req
82. What's wrong?
Copy !req
83. What the fuck are you on aboot,
"What's wrang?"
Copy !req
84. After everything I told you
aboot me getting clean?
Copy !req
85. Pure opening my heart up to ye,
there you're like,
Copy !req
86. "Ah, is that y'away to get full o' the
smack again this weekend, eh, Jacqueline?"
Copy !req
87. Get yer job tae fuck!
Copy !req
88. - Jacqueline, I never said that!
- I told ye, I'm clean, awright?
Copy !req
89. Too clean for this pigsty.
Copy !req
90. He's a dirty!
Copy !req
91. American forces in Afghanistan
Copy !req
92. have came under
some of the most intense fire
Copy !req
93. since the beginning of their campaign,
Copy !req
94. in a town only five miles from Kabool.
Copy !req
95. Did you hear what I said there?
Copy !req
96. I said Kabool. Kabool.
Copy !req
97. Not Kabul,
like we would say over here,
Copy !req
98. but Kabool,
like they would say over there.
Copy !req
99. Impressive, isn't it?
Copy !req
100. Of course,
you wouldn't hear me say this...
Copy !req
101. The Netherlands will tonight
go to the ballot box in a crucial vote
Copy !req
102. that could spell the end of the notorious
red-light districts of Amshterdam.
Copy !req
103. Or...
Copy !req
104. The President of America will later today
attend a memorial service
Copy !req
105. at the site of the World Trade Center
attacks in Noo Yoik.
Copy !req
106. Or...
Copy !req
107. A fire has broke out on a North Sea
oil rig, just off the coast of...
Copy !req
108. "Shetland,
Copy !req
109. the Shetland Islands
up there in Shetland.
Copy !req
110. No. That would be silly, wouldn't it?
Copy !req
111. I only do it for places like Kabool.
Copy !req
112. Here, imagine getting knocked doon
by an ambulance,
Copy !req
113. that'd be funny, wouldn't it?
Copy !req
114. It's no'. It's no'.
Copy !req
115. Every day in my school,
there's always some class getting gym.
Copy !req
116. And in every class, there's always
somebody who's forgot their trainers.
Copy !req
117. But that never stops them
from getting some exercise.
Copy !req
118. A punishment exercise!
Copy !req
119. I thought, hold on,
there's a wee gap in the market here.
Copy !req
120. So I bought a pair of sannies, just
a daft pair of slip-ons oot the shops.
Copy !req
121. A hefty investment, but the higher
the risk, the higher the return.
Copy !req
122. The next day, I goes walking
up the gym queue like that,
Copy !req
123. "Anybody looking for trainers?
Copy !req
124. "Sannies for hire. Sannies..."
Copy !req
125. "Aye, me!"Me an' aw."
Copy !req
126. Mark and Colin bolt up to us
at the exact same time. I wis like that,
Copy !req
127. "Er, we've got a problem, lads,
I've only got one pair of trainers."
Copy !req
128. Mark was like that, "I shouted first."
Copy !req
129. Colin was like,
"Aye, but I got to him first."
Copy !req
130. I was like, "Look, lads, I've got
an idea - take a trainer each."
Copy !req
131. They were like, "Are you mental?"
Copy !req
132. I says, "Naw, listen, they split
the hall into two, daen't they?
Copy !req
133. "Yous are in two different classes,
two different teachers.
Copy !req
134. "Mark, you go up to Mrs McArthur
with your trainer,
Copy !req
135. "and hit her with a sob stow aboot
how the other fell oot your bag, right?
Copy !req
136. "Same with Mrs Ferguson, Colin.
Copy !req
137. "She normally doesnae fall
for the missing trainers patter,
Copy !req
138. "but having a trainer on ye will lend
the stow a certain believability, right?"
Copy !req
139. And they were like that, "Worth a try."
Copy !req
140. I says, "Cool, 20p each."
Copy !req
141. 40p, man, can you believe it?
A 40% return on my investment already!
Copy !req
142. Anyway, so I catches up with them at
the end of the day, see how they got on.
Copy !req
143. I was dreading it,
if the truth be known.
Copy !req
144. And they were like that,
"Gary, you're a genius!"
Copy !req
145. I was like that, "Thank God."
Copy !req
146. And that was the end a that.
Copy !req
147. Naw, it wasnae.
Cos a couple of days later,
Copy !req
148. there's me in the middle
of serving a customer
Copy !req
149. and I gets a hand
slapped on ma shooder.
Copy !req
150. Turns around and there's Mark and Colin
with pure scowls on their faces.
Copy !req
151. They were like that, "We want
our money back, it didnae work."
Copy !req
152. I was like that, "Aye, it did."
Copy !req
153. They were like that, "Naw, it didnae."
Copy !req
154. They tells us they got pulled oot
their classroom and their teachers said,
Copy !req
155. "Boys, we've just had a conversation
about how two of our pupils,
Copy !req
156. "in the exact same gym hall,
Copy !req
157. "on the exact same day, managed
to lose the exact same sandshoe.
Copy !req
158. "Can you explain why that is?"
I was like that, "Aw, you are joking!"
Copy !req
159. They were like that, "Naw, 500 lines each,
it's nae joke, so gie's our money back."
Copy !req
160. I was like that, "No chance!
Copy !req
161. "I provided yous with a solution
to your problem in that moment in time,
Copy !req
162. "the problem being
imminent punny eccies.
Copy !req
163. "Yous knew the risks,
yous accepted the deal, nae refund."
Copy !req
164. Two of them started squaring up to me,
Copy !req
165. "Don't want to hear it, Gary.
Money, noo."
Copy !req
166. I was like that,
"It's came to this, then, has it?"
Copy !req
167. And I chucked their money on the deck.
Told them no' to come back.
Copy !req
168. And they were like that, "So what?"
So what? See they two?
Copy !req
169. They're not getting a lend o' a pair
of trainers for the rest of their lives.
Copy !req
170. Nae hauners in any fights.
Nae dragging them oot of the grog pit.
Copy !req
171. Nothin'. That's them on themselves!
Copy !req
172. Right, ta.
Copy !req
173. Right, ta.
Copy !req
174. Right, ta.
Copy !req
175. Right, ta.
Copy !req
176. We've got to save the planet.
Copy !req
177. That's what they say.
Copy !req
178. Our planet is dying.
Copy !req
179. Good.
Copy !req
180. Don't want to save the planet.
Copy !req
181. Because the reason for saving the planet
Copy !req
182. is so that it can be enjoyed
by future generations, in't it?
Copy !req
183. But what if I hate them?
Copy !req
184. Cos here we've got
the next generation right here.
Copy !req
185. Look.
Copy !req
186. He looks like his troosers have fell doon.
Copy !req
187. See in ma day,
see if you looked like that,
Copy !req
188. it would be because
yer troosers have fell doon.
Copy !req
189. That's the sort of thing you used to
run up behind people an' dae to them.
Copy !req
190. I hate him.
Copy !req
191. And as for generations to come,
people 500 years from now,
Copy !req
192. I've no' even met them
and I hate them awready.
Copy !req
193. You should as well because they'll be
looking back to this day and age
Copy !req
194. and they'll be laughing at us.
Copy !req
195. Calling us barbarians,
pure gie'n us a hard time.
Copy !req
196. Why would you want to leave them
a beautiful planet that's in perfect nick?
Copy !req
197. I couldnae bear the thought
aw they people on ma planet,
Copy !req
198. pure livin' it up, no way!
Copy !req
199. You know what the saddest thing is?
Copy !req
200. We willnae be there to laugh back at them,
to gie them a hard time.
Copy !req
201. But we can get the planet to gie them
a hard time on oor behalf.
Copy !req
202. By destroying it.
Copy !req
203. By leaving them a planet so ravaged
Copy !req
204. that they just need to step oot into
the sunlight and their skin will fall aff.
Copy !req
205. And in that small way, even though
we'll be deid, we'll have lived on
Copy !req
206. through dear old Mother Earth.
Copy !req
207. So cheer up.
Copy !req
208. It's no' the end of the world.
Copy !req
209. Severe floods in North Wales
have left almost 700 people homeless,
Copy !req
210. many without adequate food or shelter.
Copy !req
211. Did you see that? I said,
Copy !req
212. 700 people homeless.
Copy !req
213. Watch how I shake my head.
Copy !req
214. 700 people homeless.
Copy !req
215. Watch how I wave my hands.
Copy !req
216. 700 people homeless.
Copy !req
217. That's a little trick I use
in order to help you know
Copy !req
218. that what I just told you is...
Copy !req
219. bad news.
Copy !req
220. Sorry, sorry to interrupt the show,
folks, I've got an idea.
Copy !req
221. It's a wee trick we can play
Copy !req
222. on aw the folks no' watching
the show the night, right?
Copy !req
223. What it is
is, see when you're oot and aboot,
Copy !req
224. see if you see a stone on the ground,
Copy !req
225. pick it up,
and on the ground, draw an arrow.
Copy !req
226. See if you can be bothered,
keep it wi' ye,
Copy !req
227. take it wi' ye, and wherever you go,
every now and again...
Copy !req
228. another arrow on the grun'.
Copy !req
229. If enough of us dae it, your arrows
will lead to somebody else's arrows
Copy !req
230. that'll lead to somebody else's.
Copy !req
231. Arrows that lead to arrows
that lead to arrows.
Copy !req
232. Let's send these bastards everywhere.
Copy !req
233. You'll never catch me!
Copy !req
234. I'm your worstest nightmare!
Copy !req
235. Imagine it.
Imagine seeing yer doppelganger.
Copy !req
236. Imagine seeing somebody
who's identical to you in every way.
Copy !req
237. How mental would that be, eh?
Copy !req
238. Aye, well, come here.
Copy !req
239. Dugs.
Copy !req
240. In the '70s, you had yer Alsatian,
you know, yer German shepherd.
Copy !req
241. And in the '80s,
you had yer Doberman,
Copy !req
242. you know, your Doberman pinscher.
Copy !req
243. In the late '80s and '90s,
you had yer Rottweiler.
Copy !req
244. And now it's your bull terrier,
yer Staffordshire bull terrier,
Copy !req
245. pit bull terrier,
it's just totally out of control, innit?
Copy !req
246. So what the Government did -
Copy !req
247. and this was a while back,
you willnae remember this -
Copy !req
248. was they got in touch wi'
the Kennel Club and they said, "No more.
Copy !req
249. "If yous breed any mair
of these dangerous dugs,
Copy !req
250. "then we're no' letting you breed any."
Copy !req
251. And the Kennel Club said,
Copy !req
252. "Are you sure aboot that?"
Copy !req
253. And see, efter a moment's thought,
Copy !req
254. the Government backed doon,
because they knew they could ban
Copy !req
255. every kinda breed o' dug that there is,
they couldnae ban dugs altogether.
Copy !req
256. Cos what people would end up doing
Copy !req
257. is they would swap oot their old dugs
Copy !req
258. for a breed of dug
that wasnae a breed of dug.
Copy !req
259. And d'you know what that is?
Copy !req
260. The wolf.
Copy !req
261. Picture wan o' these swines wi' a wolf.
Copy !req
262. Aaaoooo!
Copy !req
263. Aaoooo!
Copy !req
264. Aaaooooooo!
Copy !req
265. Computer,

Copy !req
269. - Selected.

Copy !req
329. Let's take another call.
Copy !req
330. See if you
can escape the well.
Copy !req
331. You see, the problem
with being on a bus is
Copy !req
332. you sometimes get
this overwhelming urge
Copy !req
333. to just blurt something out and make
a complete fool of yourself, don't you?
Copy !req
334. Raaaaaargh! Raaaaargh ha-ha-ha!
Copy !req

Copy !req
336. The Prime Minister has warned

337. could take..."longer than expected",
Copy !req
338. and that Government borrowing
may increase in years to come.
Copy !req
339. Did you see what I did there?
Copy !req
340. When I said, "longer than expected",
Copy !req
341. I looked down at the piece
of paper, didn't I?
Copy !req
342. That's because it was a quote.
Copy !req
343. I read off the Autocue and it said...
Copy !req
344. I look down to my quote sheet...
Copy !req
345. one, two, three, four, five -
"longer than expected".
Copy !req
346. Pretty neat, huh?
Copy !req
347. We're all thinking
aboot each other, in't we?
Copy !req
348. Aye.
- Thought so.
Copy !req
349. - I want you inside me, hen.
Copy !req
350. Fuckin', I don't work, right?
Copy !req
351. And people think
that makes yer heid go tae pot.
Copy !req
352. But I spot things.
Copy !req
353. I think aboot things that other people
havenae got the time for.
Copy !req
354. Like, there was this advert on the telly,
about four in the morning,
Copy !req
355. for one o' they CD collections.
Copy !req
356. And the song that was playing was that
I Wanna Know What Love Is by Foreigner.
Copy !req
357. And it had the names of
aw these other songs coming up,
Copy !req
358. like Sheena Easton, Modern GM,
Copy !req
359. and Love Bites by Def Leppard.
Copy !req
360. And they were in white.
Copy !req
361. Then I Wanna Know What Love Is
Copy !req
362. by Foreigner popped up,
but that was in yella.
Copy !req
363. And I was like that,
Copy !req
364. "Right, so if the words are in yella,
Copy !req
365. "that means that's the song
that's playing. Cool."
Copy !req
366. Then the song changed to
Crockett's Theme by Jan Hammer.
Copy !req
367. And I was like that
"Right, so soon we'll be seeing a wee
Copy !req
368. "Jan Hammer, Crockett's Theme
in yella, I get it now. "
Copy !req
369. Lionel Ritchie, Hello.
That was in white.
Copy !req
370. Right. Here I Go Again, Whitesnake,
that was in white an ' aw. Cool'.
Copy !req
371. Guess what comes up in yella.
Copy !req
372. You guessed it.
Copy !req
373. Circle in the Sand by Belinda Carlisle.
I was like that...
Copy !req
374. What?
Copy !req
375. Then the song came on.
Copy !req
376. - But nae mention of Jan Hammer, no' once.
Copy !req
377. People are like that "Dee Dee,
you must be going braindeid,
Copy !req
378. "just sitting about
doing fuck-all all day."
Copy !req
379. But I must have been the only guy
that spotted that, man.
Copy !req
380. D'you wanna go faster?
Copy !req
381. Then scre-e-e-e-e-am!
Copy !req
382. Get on the outside,
the left side's the best side.
Copy !req
383. Scream if you want to go faster,
scream, scream, scream!
Copy !req
384. I'd like to move on now
and talk about your first real taste
Copy !req
385. of the West End stage environment.
Copy !req
386. At the age of 19, you were thrust
into the lead role of Hamlet.
Copy !req
387. A very young age to take on
such a prominent role,
Copy !req
388. usually reserved for actors
of around twice the age.
Copy !req
389. I mean, that must have been
a very proud achievement for you.
Copy !req
390. Sure.
Copy !req
391. Previous to myself playing Hamlet,
Copy !req
392. it was generally regarded as a...
as a role for 30-year-olds, 40-year-olds,
Copy !req
393. but Stuart Havish of the Windsor Theatre,
Copy !req
394. who was the director of
the Windsor Theatre at the time,
Copy !req
395. he gave me my big break, as it were,
and I... I haven't looked back since.
Copy !req
396. So it's, it's, it's, it's, it's,
it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's,
Copy !req
397. tis, tis, tis, tis,
tis, tis, tis, tis, tis,
Copy !req
398. tis, tis, tis, tis, tis, tis,
tis, tis, tis, tis, tis,
Copy !req
399. tis, tis, tis, tis, tis, tis, tis, tis,
tis, tis, tis, tis, tis, tis, tis, tis,
Copy !req
400. tis, tis, tis, tis, tis, tis, tis, tis...
Copy !req
401. great, yeah,
very proud achievement.
Copy !req
402. Well, ladies and gentleman,
that's the end of the show.
Copy !req
403. Hope you've enjoyed it. See you later.
Copy !req
404. Bye-bye.
