Episode 1 Live at the Apollo

This programme contains adult humour.

# Oh, yeah! #

Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome your host for tonight -

Micky Flanagan!

CHEERING

Ah! Good evening, 'Ammersmith! What's 'appening?

Welcome to Live At The Apollo! CHEERING

Ah...

Thank you for coming out, people.

Coming out to central London. Always a pain.

You get on the Tube.

Looking at people with flip-flops on. LAUGHTER

I'm a Londoner myself. I get out of town quite a lot.

People are happy everywhere else. Don't know if you've noticed. "How you doing?" they say.

"All right?" I say, "Just put the pasty in the bag, love." LAUGHTER

"We're all busy people."

So we've got Arg here. How you doin', Arg? What's happening, man?

I'll tell you what I did the other day as a bit of respect to the vajazzle.

I put a bit of Pritt Stick all over my bollocks...

dipped them in a bowl of glitter.

Ah!

My wife was like, "Whoo!

"Get that out, man. Get that out."

So...

I used to chase women quite a lot. Things were different back then.

You had to go out on the hunt as a man in the '70s.

You had to put a nice splash of Paco Rabanne on. You'd stand with your mates. There was no Facebook.

None of this nonsense. You went in cold!

You went in cold.

With your mates, Friday night, you've had a couple of pints of lager, shirt ironed, jeans pressed.

You say to your mates, "I'm going to go and get them birds over. When I bring 'em back, don't mess it up."

You walk over to them.

Evening, ladies.

I know it must have hurt when you fell from heaven. GROANS

Maybe my friends and I could ease the pain by buying you a few drinks.

No? Fair enough. LAUGHTER

Come on, we're going. We've only come in here on lesbian night, haven't we?

It's very nice that women don't have to worry about this nonsense now.

If they fancy you in a nightclub, you're chatting to her, she says, "Shut up. Shut up!

"I'm going to sleep with you, brother. Calm down."

Takes you home and uses you.

And you wake up in the morning a bit dishevelled.

The cat's looking at you. The judgmental cat on the pine dresser.

But the worst thing that's happened, in all the commotion you've forgotten her name.

Now, I'm old-fashioned. I think if you've trumped on someone's fanny, you should remember their name.

It's a bit of a rule of mine.

So...

Go downstairs, go through the post.

LAUGHTER

Thinking!

I'm a thinker!

Crafty, crafty Cockney!

I'll just have a look here...

Oh, I can't call her The Occupier.

That would be a bit much.

But I'm not so old-fashioned. If you've slept with someone very quickly,

there may be something beyond lust. So you go on a date on a Wednesday after work.

Don't want to mess your weekend up. LAUGHTER

You go Express - Pizza Express. It's too soon for the Hut.

LAUGHTER Hut comes later.

It's got to be Express, early days. Marblene table, flower.

LAUGHTER It's all going on.

Now she's thinking, "This geezer's all right. Bit of a stunner, not bad in the bedroom."

Then you start proving you've got half a brain. She thinks, "He's a potential boyfriend!"

LAUGHTER

"Oooh! Potential boyfriend."

Suddenly, you're getting this speech halfway through the Four Seasons.

"Listen, can I assure you, it's not my usual practice

"to sleep with men as quickly as I happen to have slept with you?"

And I'm like, "Relax, Home Owner.

"Relax.

"We've got off to a bit of a shaky start. Let's have a bruschetta!"

So...

I'm settled down now. Met a very nice girl ten years ago.

And, um...we were making love about...five years ago...

We've done it since.

She said, "I want a baby!"

I said, "Well, come off the pill, I'll start leaving it in."

And so, um...

A bit boring, but necessary.

So...

I started leaving it in.

The child arrived.

And to do the right thing, we went and bought an overpriced house to store him in for 16 years,

to give him half a chance.

And we know it's a nice area. And you know why? Because people tend to say hello.

They're trying to create a bit of a village-y feel. Like a village. "Hello!" they say.

"Hello!" They come out the bushes. "Hello!"

I'm not big on the hello.

I've looked into the whole issue. I'll tell you. Your neighbours either side, if you bump into them,

you have to say hello.

If you come out late at night -

you're doing your recycling late, cos you shouldn't have that many bottles...

You go out late, crafty, don't ya?

And they come out - "Ooh... Did you have a party?"

"No, we're functioning alcoholics. Now, piss off."

A few doors either side of these people, these are optional. Optional.

They're neighbourly. Neighbourly. "Yes, hello!"

Beyond that, bollocks to them. LAUGHTER

It goes for two or three doors.

Then you have an odd mark in your street, wants to say hello to everyone for no apparent reason.

We've got one. He's an old boy. He's got a rather sporty car.

And he shows out. "Hello! Hello..."

I've blanked him for about three years.

But the other day I'd had a couple of pints of Stella "Artorise".

It's a continental lager.

And contrary to popular belief, it made me quite benevolent. I got quite friendly.

I cracked. I went past, I said hello and we had a chat about his motor.

Now we're mates. Now I've got to say hello to him for the rest of my life.

And this is what it can lead to.

Went to drop the little boy off at his school. His Montessori school.

Where he learns through play.

For £50 a day. LAUGHTER

Very giving people there, they are.

And I saw him. "Morning," we said. "Morning! Morning!"

The big "good morning". Went indoors, had to get a pint of milk.

He's coming down the road again. The second meet's a bit awkward. You've done your big "good morning".

So we did what you do - the big eyebrow raise.

"Fancy bumping into you again. What a crazy world we live in."

Went indoors.

Ink cartridge has run out. I need another one. I'm going to the stationer's. He's coming again!

The third meet is one of the toughest social situations known to mankind.

But he knew the rules, as did I.

We strapped in. As we passed each other, I said, "You're not following me, are you?"

He said, "We have to stop meeting like this!"

That's your standard cover for your third meet. Internationally known and respected.

But there's no cover for four. It's never been found.

I'm now trapped in the house for 24 hours before we're back on "hello".

Fair enough. Don't want to go out anyway.

My wife, though, she said, "Pick my dress up from the cleaner's." I said, "No."

"What do you mean, no?!" I said, "You know the old boy with the sporty car? We say hello now.

"I've seen him three times already today. As you know, there's no cover for four."

She said, "I don't know what you're talking about. Go and get the dress, you arsehole!"

So I'm in a dodgy situation. I'll tell you what it led me to do, people.

For the first time in my adult life I've reached the position

where I'm peeping out of my own curtains.

My aim being to see the old man leave his home and I shall run to the cleaner's and get back.

And I'm peeping. I made a discovery.

Peeping is fun. LAUGHTER

Because you're in a powerful position as a peeper. You're looking at people. They don't know.

However, the real fun starts when you're caught peeping.

LAUGHTER Cos a power struggle ensues between you, the peeper,

and what we'll now call the peepee.

LAUGHTER

Cos the peepee seizes power. They say, "A-ha! I've caught a geezer peeping!"

At that point, you are duty bound to do one of two things.

You come out of the peep and start messing about with the window, thus throwing it into some doubt.

Your second option, and the far more common, is the good old-fashioned hide.

APPLAUSE

So I'm pushing on. I'm loving the peeping.

I made a discovery. I discovered the most fun you can have.

You're peeping. Fair enough. It's your right.

You're caught peeping. The peepee seizes power!

They go, "A-ha! I've caught a geezer peeping."

At that point they expect you to come out or hide.

For maximum fun at that point,

you maintain the peep. LAUGHTER

APPLAUSE

This takes it to a whole new level.

It's not for everyone.

So, holiday time's over. Not a big fan of holidays. Never have been.

You go on holiday - what are people doing? They're walking about...

Having something to eat. "Shall we have something to eat?"

The only place I'll go is Spain.

We conquered Spain in the '70s, didn't we? We turned up, we said, "We like it here. It's all right.

"It's all right.

"But you're going to have to make a few changes.

"Cos there's no bingo in the evening...

"..the set breakfasts are a bit ropey...

"and I couldn't get a roast on Sunday. Now, sort it out!"

"We don't mind a Spanish night, but just the one, midweek.

"Get it out the way."

But there was a fear of going to Spain, a monumental fear. I'll tell you what it was.

The shits.

The fear of the shits was monumental.

You'd say to people, "We're going Benidorm this year."

They'd go, "Oooh...

"You'll get the shits."

You'd go, "Yeah, but you can rely on the weather."

You'd go to Spain - you'd get the shits.

But largely over the last 25, 30 years it's disappeared, hasn't it?

You go to Spain, it's all right. You come back, no mention of the shits.

You've got to go more long haul now to get the shits.

You've got to go more international.

About a year and a half ago I was invited to India,

to a little town called Mumbai...

Bombay for the older people.

They do a lovely mix.

And anyway, when I've turned up, they've pulled me to one side

and said, "Be careful here, Mick - we've got a thing called Delhi belly,

"it's a bit tasty.

"You get it, you're going to know all about it, mate."

They said, "Don't have ice in your drinks, don't be eating the salads."

I said, "You're all right, I've been going to Spain for about 30 years.

"I'm covered for all eventualities!"

So I'm having ice in my drinks, I'm having the salad,

I'm washing in the river...

I embrace local culture!

Day three. About 10:30, after one of the shows. I looked at my mate Paul -

I said, "Paul, I don't feel right, mate.

"Something ain't right. I'm a regular man, I go in the morning.

"I feel like I need to go now."

He said, "Well, go then, go!"

So I went to the toilet.

And with the gentlest of pushes...

..the world fell out of my arse.

It's terrifying. You don't know where it's coming from. You start panicking.

You think you're going to empty.

I thought, "I'm going to end up a costume of a man."

I went out to my mate Paul, I said, "I'm bang in trouble, mate."

He said, "What's up?" I said "All this dirty water's coming out of me."

He said, "How bad is it?" I said, "Put it this way.

"Have you ever emptied an old radiator?"

He said, "Shut up, come and have a drink."

I said, "I can't, mate, I've got about ten seconds between when I THINK I'm going to shit myself...

"and when I will." I said, "This ain't no disco, man.

"This ain't no party. This ain't no fooling around.

"No time for lovey." Anyway...

Couple of days later I got revenge. He phoned me up from his sick bed, room to room,

at 10:30 in the morning.

He said, "Mick...I got it."

I said, "A-ha! How bad is it?"

He said, "Put it this way.

"I've just farted...

"..and some of it's sprayed on me pillow!"

That's proper!

Enjoy your snacks on the way home.

So... we have to bring on our first guest of the evening. He's superb.

Are you ready, ladies and gentlemen? CHEERING

Please welcome to this stage, Mr Seann Walsh!

CHEERING

Hello, Apollo!

It's good to be here. Nice to be in London. Well done for coming out.

Travelling through London. Very stressful, very tense. Well done. I couldn't live here.

I tried to move here towards the end of last year and I lasted about five minutes,

which in most towns isn't a long amount of time.

But my God, your faces when it says "five minutes" for the Tube.

LAUGHTER

It's like it says that your flight to Barbados has been cancelled forever.

LAUGHTER

It's so stressful living here. You are the best at rushing. Do you know how good you are?!

You see a gap that big and think, "I'm getting through that gap!"

You jump to emphasise! It's amazing!

It's incredible!

It's so hectic here!

And it's exhausting, isn't it? It's very tiring. One day in London - knackered!

You can tell that people are knackered because they can fall asleep on the Tube standing up!

Then the bloke wakes up when the Tube stops.

LAUGHTER

What?

That's the wrong order, isn't it?

You see it every time, a bloke just standing...

LAUGHTER

Yeah, that's me, thank you.

What?

What's going on?

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

That's the wrong order.

That's like when your dad wakes up when you turn OFF the television.

"I was watching that." "No, you weren't!"

I love watching television.

I hate losing the remote control.

Even if I'm not the one looking for it.

Because the house just goes crazy.

Why does no-one believe you when you say you are not sitting on the remote control?

LAUGHTER

"I am not sitting on it!

"Leave me alone!" "Come on, just get up."

"I'm not! I told you! I would be able to feel it! Leave me alone!"

"Just get up." "I'm not getting up. I'm comfortable. Leave me alone!"

"Just get up." "Please go away." "Just get up." "Oh, for God's...

"Sorry, there you go. Sorry. Sorry.

"I'm sorry. My arse can't feel it." For some reason, your arse can't feel a remote control.

"I'm very sorry. I'm sorry."

But a lot of people are cutting down on watching television.

You don't lose the remote control. People watch programmes on the laptop.

I got the laptop. This has made me so lazy.

This is ruining my life.

I don't even turn mine off any more. Do you?

I just close it. I can't be bothered with all that "shut down - are you sure?" Questions, questions!

Leave me alone!

Mine's been on for years!

The poor thing's there just going, "I'm boiling!

"Please turn me off!

"Even the oven gets a break! Come on!"

APPLAUSE

I got the laptop because I thought, "This will be brilliant. I'll have a computer on the move.

"I'll have a computer on the go. I'll be able to use the computer in the cafe, on the train like that.

"It'll be brilliant."

The only time I ever use my laptop, just like anyone else, is lying down in bed.

"That's it. I'm not moving. That's it."

It's not even a laptop any more, is it? When was the last time you put it on your lap?

It's a crotchtop! That's what it is.

It's just there, burning your balls...

Sperm going, "Agh, that's hot! Agh! I can't breathe, stop!"

You just lie there in that disgusting position.

You know that position in bed that every one of your friends sees you in on Skype?

LAUGHTER AND APPLAUSE

Hello.

Yeah...

When you can't see them on Skype... You won't talk to them unless you can see them.

"Where are you? Where are you? Where are YOU? Where are you?"

When they pop up, you're not looking at them. You're looking at a picture of yourself.

You can't believe how much you look like a bear. "Why do I look so disgusting? Help me!"

That's the night-time position, that one. That's the night-time.

The daytime one is on the side, laptop on the bed like that.

LAUGHTER

Looks like you're on Babestation.

"Call me. Call me.

"Call me. Make sure you call me. Call me."

You know you get uncomfortable in bed and you want to turn round?

With the laptop, you just go like that. "That's better, watch it like that." You take that for granted.

Remember as a kid watching a film at night, TV on the side of the room, going, "I'm really enjoying this...

"I really want to turn round!"

You'd convince yourself that you'd listen for a bit...

"I'll just turn round for a bit and listen."

MIMICS SNORING

APPLAUSE

I can't get off the laptop. I can't get off any of these popular sites.

Facebook, yeah?

I'm just like everyone else. I hate Facebook.

Can't get off the thing!

I can't get off it. It's horrible. I hate it.

The only redeeming feature that Facebook has is when you go to use it around a friend's

and they've left theirs logged in.

LAUGHTER

Woo-hoo-ha-ha! Woo-hoo-ha-ha!

Woo-hoo-ha-ha! Woo-hoo-ha-ha! Woo-hoo-ha-ha!

You "frape" them.

This is what you do. If you don't know what "fraping" is, it's approaching somebody you care about,

someone that you love, approaching their laptop, a best friend,

going into their status update, writing anything, and making out that they've said it.

Fantastic. You could use your imagination. Write anything!

But we all write the same thing.

"I love cock."

LAUGHTER AND APPLAUSE

All these things, our lives are changing so quickly.

Even...games consoles now.

Games consoles. Even games consoles are changing rapidly.

All these new consoles - the Nintendo Wii, the Xbox Kinect -

they're designed so that you actually have to do the thing!

So it's taking the point away from the games console. Isn't it?

I bought this so I don't have to go out and do the thing.

It's like buying a film then you have to act it out yourself.

Open the DVD case, there's a script. What the HELL is this?!

I prefer the old consoles.

Like the Megadrive.

CHEERING Yes.

# Sega. #

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

# Sega

# Sega. #

Remember you'd go try and play it late without your mum knowing.

Turn on the television, forget the volume's up.

# SEGA! #

Megadrive - those were the days, those were the days.

When something didn't work...

you blew into it. LAUGHTER

HE BLOWS FORCEFULY

Your friends thought they were better at it than you.

"No, you do it upwards, here." HE BLOWS FORCEFULY

Or down.

Even the video machine - when a film's not working.

There'd be one person nominated to get up off the sofa.

"Ah, for God's sake."

LAUGHTER AND APPLAUSE

Have to push open the flap. HE BLOWS FORCEFULY

My favourite game on the Megadrive was Mortal Kombat.

CHEERING

This was...this was the beat-'em-up.

Two men fighting, lot of parents said,

"These games, they encourage violence. They encourage violence,

"kids are going to start fighting if they play these games."

I think that's true. I do, I think that's true

because if my brother beat me I'd try and kill him.

Proper sibling fights. Proper sibling fi...

When you were about 10, you didn't know how to fight.

Thumb inside the fist, sideways.

Teeth...over the bottom of the mouth.

Not the face, not the face!

Not the face, not the face!

Whoever won the sibling fight

was always the kid that could run to the sofa first...

jump back...

and just kick out.

That was it, wasn't it? That was the special move.

You couldn't beat that. HE TRILLS

You couldn't beat that now.

People should still fight like that, shouldn't they?

Be brilliant!

Blokes outside Wetherspoons on a Friday night,

"Oh, you want some? You go first.

"You go. Go on."

Mortal Kombat.

Mortal Kombat, it was my favourite beat-'em-up.

The difference between this beat-'em-up and any other beat-'em-up

was you didn't just beat your opponent until he died.

You beat him into a coma...

..where you could do anything you wanted to him.

Remember this?

FINISH HIM!

This gave you about 10 seconds to type in the secret combo

that would kill your opponent in spectacular fashion.

The problem was, no-one knew the secret combo, did they?

No-one had a clue.

You'd just be there going, "Come on, come on."

"Come on. Come on!" All that happened was it went, "FINISH HIM!"

You had one bloke on one side of the screen just going,

"I'm off my nut."

And 10 yards down the other side of the screen

your guy just going, "I don't know what I'm doing."

LAUGHTER AND APPLAUSE

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

Ladies and gentlemen, thank you very much. I've been Seann Walsh. Good night!

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

Ladies and gentlemen, we have the second comedian for you this evening.

Please welcome to the stage Mr Jason Byrne!

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

Hello! AUDIENCE: Hello!

The last time I was on Live At The Apollo,

and I'm pretty well known in Britain for a very odd thing now,

and it's for having a cockeye.

Or a turned-in eye or a squint.

Cos I did this material the last time I was here about having a cockeye and a squint

and it's now made me famous in Britain.

It's a bit shit being famous for something like that cos I haven't written any cool songs or anything.

-Has anybody in this room got a cockeye or a squint?

-Yeah!

Look, see! It's brilliant because I've brought them out.

Normally, your eye will turn in if you get excited. It's really handy when I'm in bed with my wife

and I'm making love to her and my eye is literally facing my nose.

It's going...

"Is this OK, is it? Is this OK, yeah?"

I'm so excited, I don't know my eye has turned in.

She's just going, "Just get off me, just get off me. I can't stop laughing. Get off me.

"Go and get your patch." I have a patch. I have to wear a patch in bed.

It's like a pirate's patch. It's humiliating. Back in, off I go again.

We have two little boys as well.

And it's like... Well, we don't, I have two little boys,

my wife has three boys and I'm one of them.

That's just what happens, you know?

Normally, at breakfast time there's three of us

in the kitchen in our pyjamas.

Waiting for my wife to get up, just...

"She'll be up in a minute, lads, she'll be up in a minute."

"I'm hungry, are you hungry?"

"I'm eating first, do you hear me?!"

But yeah, my kids, you know, they're amazing. And they do weird...

Like, I don't believe that people who have to go

and train to look after kids,

you can't train how to look after kids,

you have to live with them cos they're mad, right?

They try to kill themselves all the time

and do mad stuff and eat dangerous things,

like, no college is ever going to teach you that stuff.

All they teach you is here's a two-year-old,

you put him on the ground and you just open his nappy gently,

just clean him, help him up and then he walks away gently.

They never do that.

My kid when he was in nappies would just stand in front of me going,

"Come on, Dad, yeah."

"Change my nappy, Dad, change my nappy."

"Come on, Dad, get my nappy. Quickly, before it comes off."

And it was heft with poo, full of poo, right?

Because I was looking after him and I'm thinking,

"Yeah, yeah. Six or seven more poos will definitely fit in there, yeah?"

If that was his mother, after one he would have been cleaned.

No way! Load it up.

Load it up and just let it fall off naturally, right?

They're amazing what they do. My other kid when he was about eight,

I was watching a match with my mates.

Sitting there watching the television, OK?

And he came running in, naked,

stood in front of the screen,

faced my mates and went,

"Willy, willy, willy, willy, willy, willy!"

"There it is! There it is!"

And ran out of the room!

My mates are going, "What the hell was that?!"

I'm going, "I don't know.

"I've never seen him do that, what the hell did he do that for?" Cos little boys are nuts.

And then I found him and his little brother a few days later

with their willies out, just having a laugh,

just going, "Yeah, come on."

"Get your willies out, lads, yeah. Willy, willy. Willy, willy."

"Yeah, willy willy. Yeah, willy willy."

And I couldn't join in, cos apparently it's illegal, right?

But I can tell you, one day I'm going to do it.

When their mother's out I'm going to get me and the lads either side of me

with their willies out, bit of music on the telly.

"Yeah, come on, let's go, yeah."

Come on, lads, willy, willy. Willy, willy.

"Willy, willy, Father?"

"Willy, willy, son. Yeah, come on, yeah."

"Willy, willy. Willy, willy."

Oh, what am I talking about?

Fecking willies.

But men, we can't help it though, we love our willies.

Do you know what I mean? We're always at it. We're always AT it.

We're at it all the time, you know what I mean?

Like, there's loads of blokes here that on their own in the bathroom

just bang your willy off your legs, just bored.

Just going, chk, chk, chk, chk.

Chk, chk, chk, chk, it's brilliant fun.

I'm sure loads of blokes here have done it.

With a cheer, how many blokes have knocked their knob off their legs?

CHEERING

Just one bloke, "Yeah!"

"It's just me, doesn't stop knocking off, a disgrace."

Yeah, it's brilliant fun, you should do it if you haven't done it.

Just in the bathroom, just, chk, chk, chk, chk.

Chk, chk... Sorry, that's not mine, mine's more...

Sometimes I spin around in the living room naked

so the children can jump over it. Yeah?

LAUGHTER AND APPLAUSE

"Put your willy back, Dad. Put it back."

I shouldn't have said that last bit.

But I love being young, you know?

Well, I'm not young anymore, I'm 39. Oh, no!

And it's... "Oh, yeah, you're nearly dead."

LAUGHTER

It's unbelievable, like. Because I remember being young.

When I was young, sex was on tap. It was brilliant.

Whenever you wanted, "Let's do it." Turn round to your girlfriend, "Let's go."

"Really? Here?" "Yeah, who cares? Come on." "Chicka-chicka-chicka!"

It doesn't make that noise, in case there are any young people in here.

I don't want any young men here going, "Why does it sound like maracas?"

That would be good fun - behind your wife with a set of maracas.

MIMICS SOUND OF MARACAS

Actually, I tell you what, lads.

Feck this! Tomorrow, go and buy a pair of maracas, yeah?

Go and buy a pair of maracas, right?

Hide them in the bed covers. Make sure the missus doesn't find them. Hide them in there, OK?

When you're behind her... This is the telly. There's people watching. We could get in trouble.

You know when she's like that and you're like that, that way, this way, that way?

The way that men love, this way, that way? Women hate that way.

You like the missionary position and men hate that way because we have to look at you and do as we're told.

At your missus. "I'm watching you, I'm watching you.

"I've got my eye on you. That's it."

It's much better, isn't it, lads, on our own, behind? It's great fun. "Come on, yeah!"

You can do what you want, give yourself the thumbs-up.

"She can't see it. Yeah, go ahead, do it."

You could do anything.

No, the maracas. Yeah, sorry, get the maracas.

And you're behind the missus. Sneak them out. Don't let her see them.

Sneak out the maracas and just as you're behind her, start shaking them. Just go...

MIMICS SOUND OF MARACAS

She's bound to go, "Oh, my God, what the hell is that?"

Just go, "That's just me banging off your bum."

LAUGHTER

Because as I say, sex was brilliant - the madness, going away on dirty weekends.

Just get into the hotel room, you've kicked the door, you didn't even try the card, throwing your clothes off,

sticking strawberries up each other's arses, having a laugh,

rubbing cream on each other. "Here, stick your knob in the wax!" "Why?"

It was madness. We weren't even thinking, you know?

Now when you go away with the missus, oh, my God, it's just nuts.

She's standing there going, "Right, this is going to be a crazy weekend, an absolutely crazy weekend."

She starts folding the clothes on the chair.

"Yeah, we're going to go ballistic-arooney here.

"Oh, it's going to be a lovely, sexy weekend.

"Should I iron them before I get into bed?"

Meanwhile, next door, that couple you used to be are going nuts.

He's banging her head off the headboard.

I mean, with my wife, the last time I banged her head off the headboard,

all I got was...boof! "Eh, take it easy...

"Take it easy there.

"I didn't ask you to fix the headboard with my head, did I?

"Now shimmy down. Shimmy down the bed. Shimmy down."

That's how sad your life gets.

You can't even bother disconnecting any more.

Like two flies flying around in the summer having sex,

"Just shimmy down, I can't be arsed. Shimmy down, shimmy down.

"Right, off you go, off you go.

"Take it easy. I said, take it easy, didn't I? Take it easy!

"Mind the lamps, the bedside lamps. You'll knock them off the bed.

"Take it easy! The bedside lamps!

"Right, I'll hold them. You go ahead!

"Are you enjoying yourself? I hope you're enjoying yourself."

It's just shit!

I know what we'll do. I tell you what we'll do.

Let's bring other instruments into the bedroom.

Yeah, OK. Oh, yeah, sneak...

Sneak a... Yeah, sneak a tuba into the bedroom.

Sneak a tuba. Oh, no, sorry.

That's a trombone. That's a trombone. Don't sneak a tuba into the bedroom!

HUMS LOW NOTES

APPLAUSE

"Where are you going with that?"

"What? I was going to put it in the bed covers and hide it."

No, don't do that. Get a trombone. Get a trombone, right?

Get it right at her bum there, so she can't...

She's going to see it. It's a trombone. You're going to get caught.

You'll probably never have sex ever again, but you'll have the best laugh of your life, right?

It'll be something to tell your grandchildren one day. "You won't believe what I did to your granny."

Right, get the trombone and get it right behind her on the bum and just hold it there.

Then you've got to get this tune right. Practise before you do it.

You'll only get one bash at this. Hold it at the bum.

Just as she's getting to the... SINGS HIGH NOTES

She's going nuts and she's loving it. SINGS HIGH NOTES

As she's about to explode, you go...

MIMICS TROMBONE: Buh-uhh-uhh!
