0:00:16 > 0:00:18# Today's the day of my birthday

0:00:18 > 0:00:21# Can't wait to get my present.

0:00:21 > 0:00:23# If Vic's forgot, I'll have him shot

0:00:23 > 0:00:26# By a gang of filthy Mexican peasants #

0:00:26 > 0:00:27Yes!

0:00:27 > 0:00:29There he goes, ascending the stairs - Look! -

0:00:29 > 0:00:32with some sense of urgency. Right, do you remember the plan?

0:00:32 > 0:00:34Yeah. We grab him, we cut his head off,

0:00:34 > 0:00:36put him in a bag and then shove him in the reservoir.

0:00:36 > 0:00:38No, no, we dropped that plan.

0:00:38 > 0:00:41Oh, no, I remember. We pin him down, we plant a rosebush up his arse

0:00:41 > 0:00:43and feed him phostrogen till it blooms.

0:00:43 > 0:00:45No, no, that was just me blowing off steam.

0:00:45 > 0:00:48- Think "birthday". - It's his birthday.

0:00:48 > 0:00:51- Yeah, and...?- You've organised a surprise party for him.

0:00:51 > 0:00:53Yeah, and he mustn't know about it.

0:00:53 > 0:00:55And there's a surprised woman coming.

0:00:55 > 0:00:57Well, no, there's not a "surprised" woman.

0:00:57 > 0:01:00Bob'll be surprised when he finds out who the woman is.

0:01:00 > 0:01:01Who is it?

0:01:01 > 0:01:04It's Erik's mum, Erika. She's coming over from Norway.

0:01:04 > 0:01:06Ah, does Bob still fancy her then?

0:01:06 > 0:01:09Oh, I dunno, I never really thought to ask.

0:01:09 > 0:01:11Anyway, look, here he comes descending the stairs

0:01:11 > 0:01:15with a much more relaxed look on his face.

0:01:15 > 0:01:17Pretend you've forgotten his birthday.

0:01:19 > 0:01:21Ta-da! Two, three, four!

0:01:21 > 0:01:26- What?- I'll tell you what, I'll run that tableau past you once more, OK?

0:01:27 > 0:01:30Ta-da! Two, three, four!

0:01:30 > 0:01:32- You all right?- Do you actually know what day it is today?

0:01:32 > 0:01:37- Day of the Jackal, Day the Earth Stood Still - I dunno.- Darren Day!

0:01:37 > 0:01:39No, it's my birthday... two, three four, whoa!

0:01:39 > 0:01:43- Oh, yeah, no, we agreed to forget about that a minute ago.- Yeah.- What?

0:01:43 > 0:01:45Oh, well maybe it's a good thing actually,

0:01:45 > 0:01:47when I think back to what happened last year!

0:01:52 > 0:01:57# Come on, baby and one, two, three... Give blood! #

0:01:57 > 0:01:59Yeah, so if you're forgetting me birthday,

0:01:59 > 0:02:01I suppose you haven't got me a present, have you?

0:02:01 > 0:02:05Not even the tricycle that I kept dropping hints about?

0:02:05 > 0:02:07Don't laugh at my tricycle.

0:02:07 > 0:02:10Father, I have remembered it's your birthday and have a present for you.

0:02:10 > 0:02:12Ah, he's got me one. Thank you, Erik.

0:02:12 > 0:02:14No, no touching.

0:02:14 > 0:02:16Here it is.

0:02:16 > 0:02:18Wow, it's massive!

0:02:18 > 0:02:20Well, go on, open it then.

0:02:20 > 0:02:21OK. I wonder what it is.

0:02:21 > 0:02:23A missile, something like that?

0:02:23 > 0:02:25It's your coffin.

0:02:27 > 0:02:29Ha ha ha ha ha ha ah ha ha...

0:02:29 > 0:02:32..ha ha, and so on.

0:02:32 > 0:02:34Yeah, and so on. No, I like it, it's nice.

0:02:34 > 0:02:37I mean, it's the thought that counts, Erik.

0:02:37 > 0:02:40Yes, and my thought was you've been shot.

0:02:40 > 0:02:42With the Uzi - phrrrrrrrrrrrr...phrrrrrrr...

0:02:42 > 0:02:44..shushuk...oooooooooh - buph!

0:02:44 > 0:02:47- MIMICS:- "Oh, oh, I can't see. Oh, oh, oh, oh!

0:02:47 > 0:02:49"I didn't know it would end like this."

0:02:52 > 0:02:56No, I understand the thought that you've had there, Erik.

0:02:56 > 0:02:58Well, no, I mean, at least you got me a present.

0:02:58 > 0:03:02I thought that Vic might've woke me up this morning and given me one, you know?

0:03:02 > 0:03:04Well, that's disgusting!

0:03:04 > 0:03:05ERIK "RETCHES" DRAMATICALLY

0:03:05 > 0:03:07No, oh, Erik.

0:03:07 > 0:03:08Urrrggh!

0:03:09 > 0:03:12Right, you two. You're not going to ruin me birthday!

0:03:12 > 0:03:14It's not going to happen.

0:03:14 > 0:03:16I've baked my own cake, I've bought a present for myself

0:03:16 > 0:03:19and I'm going to open it in peace here in the kitchen.

0:03:19 > 0:03:20Go on, out you go. Go on. Go on.

0:03:20 > 0:03:23WHISTLES AND SHOOS

0:03:29 > 0:03:31Right, where did I hide that present?

0:03:38 > 0:03:41Go away, cock face! Get in your coffin and die.

0:03:41 > 0:03:43ERIK "LAUGHS"

0:03:43 > 0:03:45Erik, Erik, it's not your dad. It's me, Vic.

0:03:45 > 0:03:47- Oh, hey, Vic. - Hi.

0:03:47 > 0:03:49- You look great, man. - Thanks.

0:03:49 > 0:03:52Do you want to come in and bounce around for a bit?

0:03:52 > 0:03:54Maybe shoot the shit?

0:03:54 > 0:03:57Ooh, well, not really, no thanks, Erik, not today.

0:03:57 > 0:03:59I don't really want to shoot any shits.

0:03:59 > 0:04:01I just came to tell you

0:04:01 > 0:04:03that your mam's coming over from Norway for Bob's birthday.

0:04:03 > 0:04:05- The trawler woman? - Yeah.

0:04:05 > 0:04:07That's a terrible idea.

0:04:07 > 0:04:08She's even worse than him.

0:04:08 > 0:04:12If she asks about me, just tell her that I'm dead.

0:04:12 > 0:04:14- Oh, come on, she can't be as bad as all that.- Can't she?

0:05:42 > 0:05:44Is Erik Bob's only child?

0:05:44 > 0:05:47Yeah. Oh, no! There was another one,

0:05:47 > 0:05:50but he was one of them Benjamin Button types.

0:05:50 > 0:05:51He's, like, born fully grown,

0:05:51 > 0:05:55then four days later he just disappeared down the plughole.

0:05:55 > 0:05:57Some people say he's still there,

0:05:57 > 0:05:59all tangled up...

0:05:59 > 0:06:01with the hairballs and the Vosene.

0:06:01 > 0:06:04- Is this a lie? - Yeah.

0:06:04 > 0:06:06Go on, tell us about Erik's mam then.

0:06:06 > 0:06:09Well... it was in Norway.

0:06:09 > 0:06:12- It was in the '90s. - Nice and hot then.

0:06:12 > 0:06:15That was the decade - the '90s.

0:06:18 > 0:06:21It was a cold, dark winter's night.

0:06:21 > 0:06:23THUNDERCLAPS

0:06:23 > 0:06:26Bob was driving around Norway in a covered carriage

0:06:26 > 0:06:29displaying a creature that he'd captured in the Congo.

0:06:29 > 0:06:31He pulled up at the side of the road

0:06:31 > 0:06:34to let the creature out for a piss.

0:06:34 > 0:06:37He drove it out using his special whip.

0:06:37 > 0:06:44THUNDERCLAPS

0:06:44 > 0:06:47The creature came out of the covered carriage

0:06:47 > 0:06:50and was startled by the brightness of the harvest moon.

0:06:50 > 0:06:53Nyuuuurrrrhhhhh...

0:06:54 > 0:06:56..it cried.

0:06:56 > 0:06:58And he whipped it again with his special whip.

0:06:58 > 0:07:00Shut up!

0:07:00 > 0:07:02Shout yer mouth, will you?

0:07:02 > 0:07:05He tethered the creature to a really strong nail,

0:07:05 > 0:07:10then Bob sat down to have his evening meal of a mint Aero,

0:07:10 > 0:07:13and as the first bubble hit his palate,

0:07:13 > 0:07:17he heard the most beautiful sound he'd ever heard in his life.

0:07:17 > 0:07:25# Ohhhhhh... Ohhhhhh... Ohhhhh...

0:07:25 > 0:07:28- Yes?- Is this a lie?

0:07:28 > 0:07:29Yeah.

0:07:29 > 0:07:33He was just driving around selling air conditioning units.

0:07:33 > 0:07:35Here he comes now walking towards us

0:07:35 > 0:07:38- with a look on his face that doesn't suggest love.- Huh.

0:07:38 > 0:07:41All right? I was just telling Bosh about how you met Erik's mother.

0:07:41 > 0:07:45Erik's mum? Oh, don't mention her. Especially not on me birthday.

0:07:45 > 0:07:46She's a psychopath!

0:07:46 > 0:07:50She had this boathook that she used to attack me with.

0:07:50 > 0:07:54What are you laughing at? It ain't funny!

0:07:54 > 0:07:56- What? I don't...- It's quite funny.

0:07:56 > 0:08:00And I remember once, she made me dress up in an elephant costume,

0:08:00 > 0:08:03balance a pork pie on the end of me trunk,

0:08:03 > 0:08:06and parade around in front of all the other trawlermen in the market.

0:08:06 > 0:08:09MANLY GUFFAWING

0:08:12 > 0:08:15I sometimes think, you know, if she ever tracked me down -

0:08:15 > 0:08:17I'd just get ahead of it and just like slit me throat...

0:08:17 > 0:08:19sllllttt...sssshhhh!

0:08:19 > 0:08:21Or take out me gastric band, you know...

0:08:23 > 0:08:25- Boing...boing...- Boinnnng.

0:08:27 > 0:08:29# I had a dream

0:08:29 > 0:08:31# I was a machine

0:08:31 > 0:08:34# 30 years in the future

0:08:34 > 0:08:36# I hovered a bit

0:08:52 > 0:08:53It's a spray watch.

0:08:53 > 0:08:56I got it off a gypsy lover of mine.

0:08:56 > 0:08:57- Must be special.- It is.

0:08:57 > 0:08:59If you press this button, it's weedkiller.

0:08:59 > 0:09:01That button - antihistamine.

0:09:31 > 0:09:34- Here it comes.- Right, you lot, I'm going up to have me birthday bath.

0:11:45 > 0:11:47Oh, you can tell it's expensive stuff, Vic.

0:11:47 > 0:11:50- Yeah, I got it in the Town Centre. - Ooh, Town Centre?

0:11:50 > 0:11:51It will have cost a fortune.

0:11:51 > 0:11:54Yeah, not like that cheap stuff you get on the outskirts.

0:11:54 > 0:11:59- No, this feels good. - And some aromatic bay leaves, eh?

0:11:59 > 0:12:02Ooh, put 'em in. I hope they don't make me too sentimental.

0:12:02 > 0:12:05- A-diddle-iddle-iddle.- Hey! You are cheeky today!

0:12:22 > 0:12:25Oh, I see you've got a pig in the pot. How delish!

0:12:25 > 0:12:29- Yes, now, Julie, what can I do for you?- Well now, Vic.

0:12:29 > 0:12:32I don't know whether this is a very good time, but you see,

0:12:32 > 0:12:35- I've got something to tell you. - Mmm?

0:12:36 > 0:12:41- I'm pregnant.- Ooh.- And it's yours.- No, I don't think so.- Yes.

0:12:41 > 0:12:46- No, no.- Yes.- No, no, no, no, no. - Yes.- No, it isn't. It isn't. It can't be.

0:12:46 > 0:12:49Silly Billy Bremner, of course I'm not pregnant. Look!

0:12:49 > 0:12:51HE FORCES LAUGHTER

0:12:53 > 0:12:56No, I'm not ready for that sort of commitment.

0:12:56 > 0:12:57- I don't want him.- Ooh!

0:12:57 > 0:13:00Be careful, hold him properly! You'll break his bloody neck!

0:13:02 > 0:13:05- This is Erika, Bob's ex.- Where is he?

0:13:05 > 0:13:08Look. Julie, we've got a bit of a problem.

0:13:08 > 0:13:11- I'll explain everything round at your house.- Right, good.

0:13:11 > 0:13:16- Come on, Erika, we're going to get some booze for baby.- Peace at last.

0:13:17 > 0:13:23- Ah, it's good. Ah, yes. - Right, where is he?

0:13:23 > 0:13:26Right, well, first of all, hello, Erika. Lovely to meet you.

0:13:26 > 0:13:28Bob's told me all about, you know,

0:13:28 > 0:13:30how you used to be the love of his life.

0:13:30 > 0:13:31Where is he?

0:13:31 > 0:13:34And how he liked to dress up like an elephant

0:13:34 > 0:13:36and parade around in front of you.

0:13:36 > 0:13:38Oh, this is getting hot.

0:13:43 > 0:13:49Vic! Vic, I can't turn it off! Vic! Erik! Erik!

0:13:49 > 0:13:55Vic! Vic! I'm swelling up here! Vic! Vic!

0:13:55 > 0:13:58Look now, Erika, I know you've come a long way from Norway,

0:13:58 > 0:14:00but there's been a bit of a change of plan.

0:14:00 > 0:14:03- Oh, a change of plan, what fun.- Hmm. Something's happened.

0:14:03 > 0:14:06- Something's definitely happened. - Well, spit it out.

0:14:06 > 0:14:07It's not as if he's dead, is it?

0:14:08 > 0:14:12Yes, that's it...he's dead, Bob's dead!

0:14:13 > 0:14:17Dead?! How dare he? I'll kill him. That was my job.

0:14:17 > 0:14:22He's dead, dead, dead. He's dead.

0:14:23 > 0:14:26- Oh! - LAUGHTER

0:14:26 > 0:14:30How did he die...so young-ish?

0:14:31 > 0:14:37Oh, God! Oh, God, he's dead!

0:14:37 > 0:14:40I can't believe...excuse me a minute.

0:14:41 > 0:14:42HE TRUMPS

0:14:44 > 0:14:46Dead! Dead! Dead!

0:14:46 > 0:14:48It was awful.

0:14:48 > 0:14:50It was terrible.

0:14:50 > 0:14:51- Vic? Vic?- Yes?

0:14:51 > 0:14:54- Vic, you need to pull yourself together.- I can't.

0:14:56 > 0:14:58Come on there, that's better, isn't it?

0:14:58 > 0:15:00- That's woken you up. - Thank you, Julie.

0:15:00 > 0:15:02OK, that's all right. Now calm down.

0:15:02 > 0:15:04Look, Julie, listen.

0:15:04 > 0:15:06Bob's not really dead. Look, we're just pretending.

0:15:06 > 0:15:08WHISPERS

0:15:08 > 0:15:12Ooh! Oh, that's very clever.

0:15:12 > 0:15:16It's gripped me. I'm poaching. Vic, oh!

0:15:18 > 0:15:21- So, you say he's dead?- Yes.

0:15:22 > 0:15:26This all seems very, very convenient,

0:15:26 > 0:15:30so, tell me, how did he die exactly?

0:15:30 > 0:15:33- It was a Saturday... - Mmm-hmm?

0:15:33 > 0:15:36..it was all The Saturdays. It was all of 'em, the bitches.

0:15:38 > 0:15:40GUN SHOTS

0:15:47 > 0:15:49EXPLOSIONS

0:15:55 > 0:15:58I would very much like to see his cadaver

0:15:58 > 0:16:00and put my pfan-nig on his eye.

0:16:00 > 0:16:03- I beg your pardon? You want to put what on his eye?- Pfennig.

0:16:03 > 0:16:07It's a German coin to give safe passage to the afterlife.

0:16:07 > 0:16:08Where does he lay?

0:16:08 > 0:16:12He's next door...in his coffin.

0:16:12 > 0:16:16In his coffin, and he'll be ready for viewing in about ten minutes.

0:16:16 > 0:16:18Ah-ha, yeah.

0:16:19 > 0:16:24So you poor woman, you must be very, very, very, very, very, very

0:16:24 > 0:16:26upset about Bob's death?

0:16:26 > 0:16:27Very!

0:16:27 > 0:16:30- I wanted to do it myself.- Aaah!

0:16:34 > 0:16:38Ooh, there's a metal turtle in the kitchen, Bob!

0:16:38 > 0:16:40- Where's the turtle spray? - It's me, you moron.

0:16:40 > 0:16:43I've swollen up and got trapped in the vice-like grip of this tub.

0:16:43 > 0:16:44Right, hang on.

0:16:46 > 0:16:48Ah, shit, a metal turtle!

0:16:48 > 0:16:50- Hold on, I'll get the spray. - Bosh, it's all right, it's Bob.

0:16:50 > 0:16:54He's swollen up and bloated and trapped inside this galvanised tub.

0:16:54 > 0:16:58Can you do something please? I've got a bay leaf stuck in me crack.

0:16:58 > 0:17:00There's a bailiff in his arse?

0:17:00 > 0:17:03You need to lift me up and shake me out. Come on.

0:17:03 > 0:17:06We need to lift him up and shake him out. Quick, all of us.

0:17:06 > 0:17:07Lift him up and shake him out.

0:17:10 > 0:17:12BANGING

0:17:12 > 0:17:13Arh!

0:17:13 > 0:17:14We need a run-up, come on.

0:17:16 > 0:17:17Come on.

0:17:19 > 0:17:20Arrgh!

0:17:20 > 0:17:21Ooh!

0:17:27 > 0:17:31BOTH: Scuttle, scuttle, scamper, scamper, up the wall he goes.

0:17:31 > 0:17:34Over the arch, where will he rest? Nobody really knows.

0:17:36 > 0:17:39Quick, get the thunder bottle, he's starting to metamorphosise.

0:17:39 > 0:17:40CHOKING NOISES

0:17:40 > 0:17:42- GUN SHOT - Ah! Hey!

0:17:44 > 0:17:45Yay!

0:17:45 > 0:17:49Terraced housing! Thank you, lads.

0:17:49 > 0:17:52No problem at all, you twat.

0:17:52 > 0:17:56- I nearly metamorphosised then. - Yeah, I know. It was really good.

0:17:56 > 0:17:58Thanks, though.

0:17:58 > 0:18:01- Bob, I've done something terrible.- Really?

0:18:01 > 0:18:03I've invited Erik's mum over and she's here.

0:18:03 > 0:18:08You've done what? She'll kill me, Vic, you undiluted arsehole!

0:18:08 > 0:18:10Oh, come on, I'm not an arsehole.

0:18:10 > 0:18:12I mean, would an arsehole be able to do this?

0:18:17 > 0:18:18I guess not.

0:18:18 > 0:18:20But it's all right, I told her you were dead.

0:18:20 > 0:18:22Yeah, well I will be if she sees me.

0:18:22 > 0:18:24She hasn't got that boathook with her, has she?

0:18:26 > 0:18:27- Yeah.- Yeah.

0:18:27 > 0:18:29Well look, Bob. We can pull this off.

0:18:29 > 0:18:31You get into that coffin that Erik gave you, pretend to be dead.

0:18:31 > 0:18:33When she comes round and has a look,

0:18:33 > 0:18:35she'll think you're dead and clear off

0:18:35 > 0:18:36and be out of your life forever,

0:18:36 > 0:18:38it's the best scenario that could happen.

0:18:38 > 0:18:41- Do you know, I like it. Let's do it.- Yeah!

0:18:41 > 0:18:43Right, away, son, into the coffin,

0:18:43 > 0:18:45there you go, you've done this before.

0:18:45 > 0:18:48Right, now then, I've gotta warn you, when she comes round,

0:18:48 > 0:18:50she wants to put her pfan-nig on your eye.

0:18:50 > 0:18:51- She wants to put what on me eye? - Pfennig.

0:18:51 > 0:18:54- It's a German coin for good luck or something.- Oh, right.

0:18:54 > 0:18:56- Right, what's going on?- Bob's dead.

0:18:56 > 0:18:58OK. Do you want a cup of tea?

0:19:00 > 0:19:02No, hold on, if Bob's dead, can I have his room?

0:19:02 > 0:19:05- No, you can't, Bosh.- Ow!

0:19:05 > 0:19:08Behave yourself, will you? I'm just pretending to be dead.

0:19:08 > 0:19:09LAUGHTER

0:19:10 > 0:19:12I'm just pretending to be dead, yeah?

0:19:12 > 0:19:14Erik's mum's coming round,

0:19:14 > 0:19:18and if she finds me here alive she'll kill me anyway. Now behave!

0:19:18 > 0:19:20Look, here they are now.

0:19:20 > 0:19:21CLEARS HIS THROAT

0:19:22 > 0:19:28Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, thank you and good night.

0:19:30 > 0:19:32Oh, hello.

0:19:32 > 0:19:36Bosh, this is Erik's mam, Erika.

0:19:36 > 0:19:37Good day, you twat.

0:19:37 > 0:19:39LAUGHTER

0:19:39 > 0:19:41So, ladies, if you'd like to gather around, here's the lad,

0:19:41 > 0:19:44and as you can see, he's as dead as a doughnut.

0:19:44 > 0:19:46She's killed him.

0:19:47 > 0:19:48SPITS

0:19:52 > 0:19:56Oh, sweetheart...my old shipmate.

0:19:58 > 0:20:02You poor, poor, poor man. What a shame.

0:20:02 > 0:20:06You poor, poor, poor, POOR, POOR man.

0:20:06 > 0:20:08Goodbye and good riddance.

0:20:08 > 0:20:13Hm-mm, well, thank you, Erika for those kind words.

0:20:13 > 0:20:16Now I think it's probably appropriate for us to tell

0:20:16 > 0:20:19and share some our favourite memories of Bob. Bosh?

0:20:20 > 0:20:22No, there's nothing.

0:20:23 > 0:20:25There must be something... something he said or did.

0:20:25 > 0:20:27No, there's nothing like that at all.

0:20:27 > 0:20:29Julie?

0:20:29 > 0:20:30Erm...

0:20:31 > 0:20:33No.

0:20:33 > 0:20:35- Nothing?- No, nothing.

0:20:35 > 0:20:36What about you, Vic?

0:20:36 > 0:20:39Well, I do remember him once saying he wanted to do a forward roll

0:20:39 > 0:20:41but he never got around to it...

0:20:41 > 0:20:42Oh, I've remembered something.

0:20:42 > 0:20:45I remember this morning he said he was going to have a bath.

0:20:45 > 0:20:50Typical Bob. Typical Bob, always saying he's going to have a bath.

0:20:50 > 0:20:52- It's just like Bob. - Lovely memories.

0:20:52 > 0:20:54Right, well, Erika, I expect you've got a submarine to catch,

0:20:54 > 0:20:56so you'd better get ahead of the traffic.

0:20:56 > 0:21:00- Goodbye, off you go. Come on. - Here's the booze.

0:21:00 > 0:21:02What's this nonsense?

0:21:02 > 0:21:03Bob's dead.

0:21:06 > 0:21:07What, of a...s-stroke?

0:21:07 > 0:21:09LAUGHTER

0:21:09 > 0:21:15No! Dead? But he was only having a bath this...

0:21:15 > 0:21:17what am I going to do without him?

0:21:17 > 0:21:21Bob! My life's not worth living. Who the hell are you? You're beautiful.

0:21:23 > 0:21:25The most beautiful woman I've seen outside of Africa.

0:21:25 > 0:21:27LAUGHTER

0:21:27 > 0:21:30- You want to make love and drink some booze?- No, Beef.

0:21:30 > 0:21:34- Erika's got a submarine to catch. - I'm not in a rush.

0:21:34 > 0:21:38Let's have a proper trawlerman's sendoff. Give me that bottle.

0:21:38 > 0:21:41Ooh, yes!

0:21:41 > 0:21:43Erika, you don't want to miss the tide.

0:21:44 > 0:21:48Father...I'm sorry I always treated you so badly.

0:21:48 > 0:21:51It was just my way of showing how much I loved you.

0:21:56 > 0:22:02He's gone, he's gone. I will learn how to face it. He's gone.

0:22:02 > 0:22:04I'd pay the devil to replace him.

0:22:04 > 0:22:06He's gone.

0:22:06 > 0:22:07What went wrong?

0:22:12 > 0:22:14Bye-bye, father. I'm going to miss you.

0:22:14 > 0:22:16SOBS

0:22:20 > 0:22:21Urgh!

0:22:23 > 0:22:25# 15 Nails in a dead man's chest.

0:22:25 > 0:22:28# Yo-ho, the bastard's dead.

0:22:28 > 0:22:31# And push him overboard and feed him to the fish.

0:22:31 > 0:22:33# Yo-ho, the bastard's dead. #

0:22:33 > 0:22:35Hooray!

0:22:36 > 0:22:38Just get rid of her.

0:22:38 > 0:22:41Bob, Bob, oh, it's a brilliant party in there. She's hilarious.

0:22:41 > 0:22:44Look, look, I've brought you a bit of the icing from your birthday cake.

0:22:44 > 0:22:47It's a B. Might be for Bob or birthday, I don't know.

0:22:47 > 0:22:49Yeah, or "bastard" like in your little song.

0:22:49 > 0:22:51- Yeah, it might be. - Get rid of her.

0:22:51 > 0:22:54Oh, do you know what? It's a bit boring out here.

0:22:54 > 0:22:56I've gotta get back to the party if you don't mind.

0:22:56 > 0:22:58- I don't want to miss anything. - Just get rid.

0:22:58 > 0:23:01# Did you hear the tale of the terrible man?

0:23:01 > 0:23:03# The terrible, terrible, terrible man.

0:23:03 > 0:23:06# He wiped his arse with a frying pan.

0:23:06 > 0:23:08# Terrible, terrible, terrible man. #

0:23:08 > 0:23:09Yes! Yes!

0:23:10 > 0:23:13Hey Erika, Erika, tell us another one of your filthy jokes

0:23:13 > 0:23:15about the Norwegian police force.

0:23:15 > 0:23:16Ah well, in a minute.

0:23:16 > 0:23:18Yay, ooh!

0:23:18 > 0:23:20- Just going for a wee. - Now I'm interested.

0:23:23 > 0:23:25I know you're alive...

0:23:25 > 0:23:29..and I'll be back in a minute...to finish you off.

0:23:29 > 0:23:32Ha, ha, ha.

0:23:35 > 0:23:37Aah! Whoa!

0:23:45 > 0:23:47What's the f's happened here, like?

0:23:47 > 0:23:48She's fallen down the f-ing stairs.

0:23:48 > 0:23:52- Did you push her? - No, she fell down the f-ing stairs.

0:23:52 > 0:23:54Did you shoot her?

0:23:54 > 0:23:57Look Vic, I don't care how far you lean over,

0:23:57 > 0:23:59she fell down the f-ing stairs.

0:23:59 > 0:24:01What the hell's happened here?

0:24:01 > 0:24:02She fell down the f-ing stairs.

0:24:02 > 0:24:05- Whoa, vampire, zombie.- Oof!

0:24:05 > 0:24:07Will you calm down?

0:24:07 > 0:24:10I was just pretending to be dead so that she wouldn't kill me.

0:24:10 > 0:24:13Did you bludgeon her? Mmm?

0:24:13 > 0:24:17- No, she fell down the f-ing stairs. - Mmm?

0:24:17 > 0:24:19Now look, I don't care how far you all lean over,

0:24:19 > 0:24:21I'm telling you the truth.

0:24:21 > 0:24:23All right, stand aside, I'm a paraplegic...

0:24:23 > 0:24:25LAUGHTER

0:24:25 > 0:24:27..I'll check for a pulse.

0:24:30 > 0:24:33Beef, mate, I'm not sure that's the traditional way of checking for a pulse.

0:24:33 > 0:24:35You might want to try the neck, mate?

0:24:35 > 0:24:38All right. Stand aside.

0:24:38 > 0:24:41Back you go. Further still.

0:24:41 > 0:24:42That's sufficient.

0:24:42 > 0:24:46I shall administer the kiss of life.

0:24:47 > 0:24:49Mmm...

0:24:50 > 0:24:53Mmmm.

0:24:53 > 0:24:56Mmm, Christ. Yes, please, mmm.

0:24:57 > 0:24:59Mmm, just what I want.

0:25:01 > 0:25:05Mmm, mmm, oh, God, mmm, mmm, mmm.

0:25:06 > 0:25:08She'd dead.

0:25:08 > 0:25:09LAUGHTER

0:25:09 > 0:25:11How do reckon we should get rid of her?

0:25:11 > 0:25:13Let's chop her up and stick her behind a sports centre.

0:25:13 > 0:25:15- Why don't we dry her out and smoke her?- Yes.

0:25:15 > 0:25:18I can take her back to my place. She's still warm.

0:25:18 > 0:25:20LAUGHTER

0:25:22 > 0:25:24Martin? What do you think?

0:25:25 > 0:25:28"Phone the relevant authorities and tell them everything?"

0:25:28 > 0:25:31Oh, where's the fun in that, Martin, you coconut?

0:25:31 > 0:25:33Look...seriously.

0:25:33 > 0:25:34She's a trawler woman,

0:25:34 > 0:25:37we should give her the sendoff that she deserves.

0:25:39 > 0:25:42KETTLE'S WHISTLE SOUNDS LIKE A BOSUN'S WHISTLE

0:25:45 > 0:25:49Thank you, Bosh. Right, so that was me birthday then, yeah?

0:25:49 > 0:25:52No presents, apart from the coffin that Erik got me.

0:25:52 > 0:25:56No party, apart from the one you lot had when I was dead.

0:25:56 > 0:25:59And I bet one of you had a cack in the microwave, didn't you,

0:25:59 > 0:26:00whilst you did it?

0:26:00 > 0:26:01Yeah, thought so.
