This old lady in Ireland, she had a little dog and the dog died. | 0:00:15 | 0:00:19 | |
She'd no family, she was an orphan. She said to the local priest, | 0:00:19 | 0:00:22 | |
"Father, she said, "Can I bury the dog inside the gate of the church?" | 0:00:22 | 0:00:25 | |
"Sorry, madam," he says, "you cannot do that. | 0:00:25 | 0:00:27 | |
"It's consecrated ground only," he said. | 0:00:27 | 0:00:29 | |
"Well," she said, "I've never had anything in my life. | 0:00:29 | 0:00:32 | |
"I'd no father or mother, no brothers or sisters." | 0:00:32 | 0:00:35 | |
"I'm sorry," he says, "I can't do it." | 0:00:35 | 0:00:37 | |
"Well," she said, "the Protestant vicar up the road, he won't refuse £500." | 0:00:37 | 0:00:41 | |
And the priest said, | 0:00:41 | 0:00:42 | |
"Hold on a moment, you never told me the dog was a Catholic." | 0:00:42 | 0:00:45 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:00:45 | 0:00:48 | |
Two blokes sitting in the pub, and Mick say to Paddy, | 0:00:48 | 0:00:51 | |
"What's wrong with you? You look really miserable." | 0:00:51 | 0:00:54 | |
"Ah," he says, "don't talk to me." "Well, come on," he says, "tell me." | 0:00:54 | 0:00:58 | |
He says, "I'm fed up." | 0:00:58 | 0:00:59 | |
So after a few minutes, Paddy says to Mick, | 0:00:59 | 0:01:02 | |
"I tell you what to do." | 0:01:02 | 0:01:04 | |
He says, "Go home, give the missus one, | 0:01:04 | 0:01:09 | |
"and I'll meet you back here at seven o'clock." | 0:01:09 | 0:01:12 | |
So anyway, seven o'clock comes and Paddy's waiting at the bar | 0:01:12 | 0:01:16 | |
and in walks Mick with a big smile on his face. | 0:01:16 | 0:01:19 | |
He says, "Well, how did you get on?" | 0:01:19 | 0:01:21 | |
"Jesus," he says, "you've a lovely house." | 0:01:21 | 0:01:23 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:01:23 | 0:01:27 | |
There's a boy born and he's just a head. | 0:01:27 | 0:01:29 | |
They were kind of hoping for more to come out, but he's just a head. | 0:01:29 | 0:01:33 | |
The father is always a little bit embarrassed about it, | 0:01:33 | 0:01:36 | |
doesn't really get seen with him out that much. | 0:01:36 | 0:01:38 | |
But the boy's 18th birthday comes and the father said, | 0:01:38 | 0:01:41 | |
"OK, it's about time I brought him for a pint." | 0:01:41 | 0:01:44 | |
So he brings the head along to the bar and sits him up | 0:01:44 | 0:01:46 | |
and says, "I'd like a pint, please, and one for the son as well." | 0:01:46 | 0:01:51 | |
So, the barwoman pours a pint of stout, puts it in front of him | 0:01:51 | 0:01:55 | |
and a pint of stout for the boy, | 0:01:55 | 0:01:57 | |
and the father helps the boy to drink the stout. | 0:01:57 | 0:02:00 | |
And he's drinking his own when he notices that there's something | 0:02:00 | 0:02:03 | |
growing from the bottom of the boy's head, and it's a neck. | 0:02:03 | 0:02:07 | |
And the boy says, "Give me more, Dad." | 0:02:07 | 0:02:10 | |
"Another pint for the son." | 0:02:10 | 0:02:11 | |
Pours another pint. Downs that pint, and now, sure enough, | 0:02:11 | 0:02:14 | |
there's a torso sprouting from the neck. | 0:02:14 | 0:02:17 | |
"Another!" And at this stage, the whole bar is looking. "Another pint!" | 0:02:17 | 0:02:20 | |
And other paint is poured, and an arm sprouts, legs, the whole lot, ears. | 0:02:20 | 0:02:25 | |
And the boy said, "I'm a boy, I'm a real boy! | 0:02:25 | 0:02:28 | |
"I've legs, I've arms, I can walk." | 0:02:28 | 0:02:30 | |
And he gets he gets off the stool and can walk. | 0:02:30 | 0:02:34 | |
And the father is cheering | 0:02:34 | 0:02:35 | |
and the boy goes out the front onto the street, | 0:02:35 | 0:02:37 | |
"I'm a boy! I can walk! I can run!" | 0:02:37 | 0:02:39 | |
And a car comes and knocks him down. | 0:02:39 | 0:02:41 | |
And the barwoman looks up and says, | 0:02:41 | 0:02:43 | |
"He should have quit while was a head." | 0:02:43 | 0:02:45 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:02:45 | 0:02:48 | |
So, there's these two lads playing golf. | 0:02:48 | 0:02:50 | |
They play golf every Monday morning. They've been doing it for decades. | 0:02:50 | 0:02:54 | |
Anyway, one morning one of them turns up, he's got a black eye. | 0:02:54 | 0:02:57 | |
The other fella says to him, "Jesus, what happened?" | 0:02:57 | 0:02:59 | |
He said, "Well, I was at Mass yesterday | 0:02:59 | 0:03:01 | |
"and there was this woman in front of me | 0:03:01 | 0:03:04 | |
"and she was wearing a very tight skirt and the back of it, there was | 0:03:04 | 0:03:07 | |
"a bit of the skirt was tucked in between the cheeks of her bum, | 0:03:07 | 0:03:10 | |
"so I thought I'd lean forward and pull it out. | 0:03:10 | 0:03:13 | |
"She turned around, she smacked me in the face." | 0:03:13 | 0:03:15 | |
Your man goes, "Yeah, I'm not surprised." | 0:03:15 | 0:03:17 | |
So, they play their round of golf. | 0:03:17 | 0:03:19 | |
Next week, Monday morning, your man turns up and this time, | 0:03:19 | 0:03:22 | |
he's got the one eye which is still in recovery | 0:03:22 | 0:03:25 | |
and he's got a fresh black eye on the other side of his face. | 0:03:25 | 0:03:27 | |
So his friend says, "Did you do it again? What happened?" | 0:03:27 | 0:03:31 | |
He said, "Well, I was at Mass, | 0:03:31 | 0:03:33 | |
"standing behind the same woman, same thing had happened. | 0:03:33 | 0:03:37 | |
"Now, I did nothing. | 0:03:37 | 0:03:38 | |
"Fella next to me, he leant forward, pulled it out, | 0:03:38 | 0:03:41 | |
"but I knew she didn't like it like that, so I pushed it back in." | 0:03:41 | 0:03:44 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:03:44 | 0:03:46 | |
Guy goes into the doctor's, he's got a problem. | 0:03:46 | 0:03:49 | |

Doctor says, "OK, drop your trousers." | 0:03:52 | 0:03:55 | |
So, he drops his trousers. | 0:03:55 | 0:03:57 | |
He says, "There you are, Doctor, you can see my problem. | 0:03:57 | 0:03:59 | |
"What can you give me for it?" | 0:03:59 | 0:04:01 | |
The doctor said, "Hmm." | 0:04:01 | 0:04:03 | |
Doctor walked over to the window, had a look out. He says, "Come here." | 0:04:03 | 0:04:07 | |
Came over to the window, looked out. | 0:04:07 | 0:04:09 | |
He says, "Do you see that silver Mercedes over there in the corner?" | 0:04:09 | 0:04:12 | |
He says, "Yeah." He says, "I'll give you that for it." | 0:04:12 | 0:04:14 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:04:14 | 0:04:18 | |
A guy goes into a dentist. | 0:04:18 | 0:04:20 | |

He says, "Lie down there, and let me have a look at it." | 0:04:23 | 0:04:26 | |
Opens up mouth and he says, "Oh, that'll have to come out." | 0:04:26 | 0:04:28 | |
He gets on with the needle and all. | 0:04:28 | 0:04:30 | |
The man says, "Whoa, whoa, whoa, where are you going with that thing?" | 0:04:30 | 0:04:33 | |
He says, "Just to numb your gums." | 0:04:33 | 0:04:35 | |
He says, "No, no, no, needles are against my religion." | 0:04:35 | 0:04:39 | |
The dentist says, "Right, right. | 0:04:39 | 0:04:41 | |
"We'll do the gas, so, just a bit of gas on you." | 0:04:41 | 0:04:44 | |
"Oh, no, no, no, that's against my religion as well." | 0:04:44 | 0:04:48 | |
The dentist's there thinking and goes, | 0:04:48 | 0:04:52 | |
"Right, only one thing for it, the old style." | 0:04:52 | 0:04:55 | |

He says, "Right, take two of them | 0:05:12 | 0:05:14 | |
"and come back to me in three hours and 25 minutes. Apparently." | 0:05:14 | 0:05:18 | |
And your man says, "Why? Will that kill the pain, will it?" | 0:05:18 | 0:05:23 | |
"No, but it'll give you something to hold on to." | 0:05:23 | 0:05:25 | |

The Scotsman shouts to Paddy, with his thumb up like that, "Jock!" | 0:06:11 | 0:06:17 | |
So, Paddy replies, "Paddy!" | 0:06:18 | 0:06:23 | |
Everything goes quiet for a bit. | 0:06:23 | 0:06:26 | |
And then the Scotsman puts his thumb up again and he says, "Cancer!" | 0:06:26 | 0:06:32 | |
So, Paddy goes, put his thumb up, "Sagittarius!" | 0:06:32 | 0:06:36 | |

There was an 86-year-old man | 0:06:39 | 0:06:42 | |
sitting on a park bench crying his heart out. | 0:06:42 | 0:06:46 | |
So, this young man goes up to him, says, "What's the problem, sir?" | 0:06:46 | 0:06:51 | |
And the old guy said, "I'm 86 years old. | 0:06:51 | 0:06:56 | |
"I got married last week to a beautiful 23-year-old girl. | 0:06:56 | 0:07:03 | |
And the guy says, "Well, that's good." | 0:07:03 | 0:07:07 | |
"Yes," he said, "She can cook. "The house is always lovely. | 0:07:07 | 0:07:12 | |
"She's there was a welcoming smile and we make love five times a week." | 0:07:12 | 0:07:17 | |
And the young guy said, "Well, what's the problem?" | 0:07:17 | 0:07:21 | |
He says, "I can't remember where I live!" | 0:07:21 | 0:07:24 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:07:24 | 0:07:26 | |
A guy takes his wife, his highly expectant wife, | 0:07:26 | 0:07:30 | |
to Holles Street Hospital in Dublin to give birth | 0:07:30 | 0:07:34 | |
and the guy in charge there, | 0:07:34 | 0:07:35 | |
the head honcho says that he's invented a device, | 0:07:35 | 0:07:39 | |
a kind of machine, that will transfer the pains of childbirth | 0:07:39 | 0:07:45 | |
from the mammy to the daddy instead. | 0:07:45 | 0:07:48 | |
So, the husband climbs up on the machine | 0:07:48 | 0:07:52 | |
and the obstetrician starts it at the lowest possible setting. | 0:07:52 | 0:07:56 | |
Bzzz! | 0:07:56 | 0:07:58 | |
"Any pain?" | 0:07:58 | 0:08:00 | |
"Not yet. Feeling fine." | 0:08:00 | 0:08:02 | |
Bzzzzz! | 0:08:02 | 0:08:05 | |
"Any pain?" | 0:08:05 | 0:08:07 | |
Out shoots the baby, no pain. | 0:08:07 | 0:08:09 | |
"Geronimo!" cries the obstetrician. "I'll be famous forever." | 0:08:09 | 0:08:14 | |
The husband clambers down off the machine, | 0:08:14 | 0:08:17 | |
beaming and proud of a job well done. | 0:08:17 | 0:08:21 | |
Kisses for wife, and the bonny baby, | 0:08:21 | 0:08:25 | |
and then he whistles his way merrily off home | 0:08:25 | 0:08:29 | |
to find the milkman dead as a doorknob, lying across his doorstep. | 0:08:29 | 0:08:35 | |
So, I was walking through a forest one night | 0:08:35 | 0:08:38 | |
and a storm started brewing up. | 0:08:38 | 0:08:40 | |
So, I ran through a trail and I came across a monastery | 0:08:40 | 0:08:43 | |
and I knocked on the door and I said, | 0:08:43 | 0:08:45 | |
"Help! Help! I need shelter for the night." | 0:08:45 | 0:08:47 | |
And a monk came to the door and he goes, "My child, come in. | 0:08:47 | 0:08:50 | |
"We've got a room, we'll put you up for the night." | 0:08:50 | 0:08:52 | |
In the middle of the night I'm woken up - | 0:08:52 | 0:08:54 | |
crash, bang, wallop, and screaming and roaring. | 0:08:54 | 0:08:57 | |
So, I ran down the hallway, | 0:08:57 | 0:08:58 | |
went to the door where the noise was coming from and said, | 0:08:58 | 0:09:01 | |
"What's going on?" The monk comes to the door. | 0:09:01 | 0:09:03 | |
He says, "I can't tell you, you're not a monk." | 0:09:03 | 0:09:04 | |
So I'd to go back to my room, I went off. | 0:09:04 | 0:09:07 | |
The following year, nearly to the day, | 0:09:07 | 0:09:09 | |
walking through the same forest, | 0:09:09 | 0:09:11 | |
a storm starts brewing up, I knew there was a monastery nearby. | 0:09:11 | 0:09:14 | |
I knocked, I said, "Sorry about this again, caught out." | 0:09:14 | 0:09:17 | |
He said, "No worries, come in. You know we've got a spare room." | 0:09:17 | 0:09:19 | |
Fell asleep, lovely and cosy. | 0:09:19 | 0:09:21 | |
Middle of the night - crash, bang, wallop, wailing, screaming, roaring. | 0:09:21 | 0:09:25 | |
Ran down the hallway, knocked on the door, "What's going on?" | 0:09:25 | 0:09:27 | |
He says, "Can't tell you, you're not a monk." | 0:09:27 | 0:09:30 | |
Back to bed. | 0:09:30 | 0:09:31 | |
The following year, in the meantime, I trained to be a monk. | 0:09:31 | 0:09:35 | |
Wandering through the forest, peaceful, | 0:09:35 | 0:09:37 | |
I've got birds in my hands, I'm being a monk. | 0:09:37 | 0:09:39 | |
There was a storm brewing up again, | 0:09:39 | 0:09:41 | |
should have learned my lesson, but here I am. | 0:09:41 | 0:09:43 | |
Came to the door, knocked, "Have you got any shelter for the night?" | 0:09:43 | 0:09:47 | |
He says, "Come in." Showed me to my room. | 0:09:48 | 0:09:50 | |
Middle of the night - crash, bang, wallop, roars. | 0:09:50 | 0:09:53 | |
Ran down the hallway, knocked on the door. I said, "What's going on?" | 0:09:53 | 0:09:56 | |
He says, "I can't tell you, you're not a monk." | 0:09:56 | 0:09:58 | |
I says, "Ha!" | 0:09:58 | 0:09:59 | |
I pulled out a chalice and a chain and all sorts of monk paraphernalia. | 0:09:59 | 0:10:02 | |
I said, "Aha, I am!" | 0:10:02 | 0:10:04 | |
He says, "All right, come in." | 0:10:04 | 0:10:06 | |
Do you want to know what it was? Can't tell you, you're not monks. | 0:10:06 | 0:10:09 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:10:09 | 0:10:12 | |
Two nuns, a reverend mother and a novice, | 0:10:17 | 0:10:20 | |
said, "We'll go for a drink some night." | 0:10:20 | 0:10:23 | |
So, they went off for a drink | 0:10:23 | 0:10:25 | |
and on their way back the convent door was locked. | 0:10:25 | 0:10:28 | |
"How are we going to get in?" | 0:10:28 | 0:10:29 | |
"We'll have to climb the wall," she said. | 0:10:29 | 0:10:32 | |
So they were climbing the wall | 0:10:32 | 0:10:33 | |
and the young nun said to the reverend mother, | 0:10:33 | 0:10:35 | |
"I feel like a commando." | 0:10:35 | 0:10:37 | |
She said, "I do too, but where are we going to get one this hour of the night?" | 0:10:37 | 0:10:40 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:10:40 | 0:10:42 | |
It would be well known in the Irish community, | 0:10:42 | 0:10:45 | |
particularly in the '50s and '60s when I came here, | 0:10:45 | 0:10:48 | |
that most of the girls went to the Inisfree or the Garry Owen | 0:10:48 | 0:10:51 | |
or any of those dance halls just to meet up with the men. | 0:10:51 | 0:10:55 | |
Anyway, Paddy came along and he says to Mary, "All right for a dance?" | 0:10:55 | 0:11:00 | |
Mary says, "Yes, that'll be fine." | 0:11:00 | 0:11:02 | |
So he took a fancy to Mary, anyway, and he asked her up again. | 0:11:02 | 0:11:05 | |
And then asked her up particularly for the last dance. | 0:11:05 | 0:11:09 | |
And he says to her, "Would you like me to take you home?" | 0:11:09 | 0:11:12 | |
"Oh, yes, Paddy, that'd be grand. Have you got a motorcar?" | 0:11:12 | 0:11:15 | |
"Yes." | 0:11:15 | 0:11:16 | |
So, on the way home, he decided to pull into a lay-by | 0:11:16 | 0:11:19 | |
and decided to have his wicked way with her. | 0:11:19 | 0:11:22 | |
And when he'd finished he said, "Oh, I'm so sorry, Mary, | 0:11:22 | 0:11:26 | |
"Sure, God, if I'd known you were a virgin | 0:11:26 | 0:11:28 | |
"I'd never have gone that far." | 0:11:28 | 0:11:30 | |
And she said, "And if I knew you what you were after, | 0:11:30 | 0:11:33 | |
"Paddy, I would have taken my tights off first. | 0:11:33 | 0:11:35 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:11:35 | 0:11:38 | |
So on this man's 90th birthday, | 0:11:38 | 0:11:41 | |

So, this beautiful lady came to the door | 0:11:46 | 0:11:50 | |
and they got the old man to answer | 0:11:50 | 0:11:53 | |
and she says, "I am here to give you super sex." | 0:11:53 | 0:11:58 | |
He says, "What flavour soup have you got?" | 0:11:58 | 0:12:00 | |

It was the height of the mad cow BSE crisis | 0:12:05 | 0:12:10 | |
and a man takes his wife out for a meal. | 0:12:10 | 0:12:14 | |
They sit down, it's a very nice restaurant. | 0:12:14 | 0:12:17 | |
The waiter comes over, "What would you like, sir?" | 0:12:17 | 0:12:20 | |
"I'll have the beef, actually." | 0:12:20 | 0:12:23 | |
"What about the mad cow?" | 0:12:23 | 0:12:25 | |

Young Mike came to London | 0:12:30 | 0:12:33 | |
and the first place he went was the local pub. | 0:12:33 | 0:12:36 | |
He was only there two minutes | 0:12:36 | 0:12:38 | |
and a pint of Guinness is up in front of him, and he says, | 0:12:38 | 0:12:40 | |
"Oh, where did that come from?" | 0:12:40 | 0:12:42 | |
He says, "Nigel over there bought for you." | 0:12:42 | 0:12:44 | |
He said, "That's grand, thanks very much." | 0:12:44 | 0:12:46 | |
He said, "I've got to look now for somewhere to stay." | 0:12:46 | 0:12:48 | |
Nigel said, "Look, you can stay here, you can stay | 0:12:48 | 0:12:50 | |
"in my house for the night, no problem." | 0:12:50 | 0:12:52 | |
He says, "Oh, that's grand. I'm only here five minutes, | 0:12:52 | 0:12:54 | |
"people buying me drink and giving me accommodation." | 0:12:54 | 0:12:57 | |
Off he went that night and he went to Nigel's house. | 0:12:57 | 0:13:00 | |
Nigel went upstairs, came back down dressed as a schoolboy with a cane. | 0:13:00 | 0:13:04 | |
He said, "You know," he says, "Nigel never went to school this morning." | 0:13:04 | 0:13:07 | |
He says, "He'll have to be punished." | 0:13:07 | 0:13:09 | |
"Oh, God, he says, I couldn't do that. You've been so good to me." | 0:13:09 | 0:13:12 | |
"Look," he said, "Now, it's a fact, | 0:13:12 | 0:13:14 | |
"never went to school this morning, must be smacked." | 0:13:14 | 0:13:17 | |
All the lads met Mike in the pub the next day, and of course, | 0:13:17 | 0:13:19 | |
they were all very interested in what happened the night before. | 0:13:19 | 0:13:22 | |
"Tell us this," they says, "how did you get on with Nigel?" | 0:13:22 | 0:13:25 | |
"Oh," he says, "I tell you one thing," he said, | 0:13:25 | 0:13:27 | |

He said, "Well, I gave one man, | 0:13:49 | 0:13:52 | |
"he was sleeping rough, I gave him a pound." | 0:13:52 | 0:13:55 | |
He said, "Another blind beggar, I gave him a pound. | 0:13:55 | 0:13:59 | |

LAUGHTER | 0:14:21 | 0:14:24 | |
I was in a wee village in Donegal a few weeks ago | 0:14:24 | 0:14:27 | |
and I thought to myself, "I'll take a walk into the town." | 0:14:27 | 0:14:32 | |
And I saw a local sitting on the wall whittling at a wee bit of wood. | 0:14:32 | 0:14:37 | |
So I walked over to him and says, "Excuse me, could you tell me | 0:14:37 | 0:14:40 | |
"how long it would take me to walk into the town centre?" | 0:14:40 | 0:14:43 | |
He kept on whittling the wood. | 0:14:43 | 0:14:45 | |
I thought, "Maybe he didn't hear me." So, I raised my voice. | 0:14:45 | 0:14:48 | |
I says, "Excuse me, could you tell me how long it'll take me | 0:14:48 | 0:14:52 | |
"to walk into the town centre from here?" | 0:14:52 | 0:14:54 | |
And he kept on. | 0:14:54 | 0:14:56 | |
I says, "This guy's ignoring me." | 0:14:56 | 0:14:58 | |
So, I went to walk away and he shouts, "Oi!" | 0:14:58 | 0:15:02 | |
He says, "It'll take you about 20 minutes." | 0:15:02 | 0:15:06 | |
I says, "I've asked you twice and you didn't answer me." | 0:15:06 | 0:15:10 | |
He says, "I was waiting to see how fast you were walking." | 0:15:10 | 0:15:13 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:15:13 | 0:15:15 | |

he reads that he was dead. | 0:15:31 | 0:15:34 | |
So, he rings up his friend in astonishment, | 0:15:34 | 0:15:37 | |
and he asks his friend, "Have you read the newspaper today?" | 0:15:37 | 0:15:40 | |

"Oh," she said, "what's that?" | 0:16:00 | 0:16:01 | |
She said, "I sent Johnny down for a head of cabbage | 0:16:01 | 0:16:05 | |
"and he dropped dead." | 0:16:05 | 0:16:07 | |
"Oh, Mary, what did you do?" | 0:16:07 | 0:16:08 | |

Murphy was working a building site in London | 0:16:15 | 0:16:17 | |
and a crane swung around with a big skip of concrete on it, | 0:16:17 | 0:16:20 | |
and it cut Murphy's head off, sliced it off, | 0:16:20 | 0:16:22 | |
left it on the ground like a football. | 0:16:22 | 0:16:24 | |
The foreman said, "Bloody hell, I don't know where he lives. What am I going to do?" | 0:16:24 | 0:16:27 | |
Flannigan said, "Give me that head. I know where he lives." | 0:16:27 | 0:16:30 | |
Up he goes, picks the head up, he has it behind his back. | 0:16:30 | 0:16:33 | |
Knocks on the door, he says, "Are you Mrs Murphy?" She said, "I am." | 0:16:33 | 0:16:36 | |
"Does your husband work on a building site down town?" She said, "He does." | 0:16:36 | 0:16:39 | |
He said, "Has he got red hair?" She said, "He has." | 0:16:39 | 0:16:41 | |
"Does he wear glasses?" She said, "He does." | 0:16:41 | 0:16:43 | |
"Has he got an earring in his left ear?" She said, "He has." | 0:16:43 | 0:16:46 | |
He said, "Is that him?" | 0:16:46 | 0:16:47 | |
"No," she said, "he's taller than that." | 0:16:47 | 0:16:49 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:16:49 | 0:16:52 | |
We'll leave it at that, yeah? | 0:16:52 | 0:16:54 | |
So, it's the Last Supper and Jesus has all the apostles around him | 0:16:58 | 0:17:03 | |
and the main deal is over | 0:17:03 | 0:17:05 | |
and it's time for him to get a bit serious and he says, | 0:17:05 | 0:17:09 | |
"It has been a lovely evening. | 0:17:09 | 0:17:12 | |
"I tell you solemnly, this very evening, | 0:17:12 | 0:17:16 | |
"one of you seated around this table shall betray me." | 0:17:16 | 0:17:20 | |
And the apostles look at each other and go, | 0:17:20 | 0:17:23 | |
"Sure, come on, say something, John." | 0:17:23 | 0:17:25 | |
So John leans forward and says, | 0:17:25 | 0:17:28 | |
"Surely, not I, Jesus? Surely, not I?" | 0:17:28 | 0:17:31 | |
Jesus says, "I tell you solemnly, | 0:17:31 | 0:17:33 | |
"somebody seated around this table this very evening will betray me." | 0:17:33 | 0:17:37 | |
"Peter, go on!" | 0:17:37 | 0:17:39 | |
"Lord, surely, not I? Surely, not I?" | 0:17:39 | 0:17:43 | |
"I tell you solemnly, | 0:17:43 | 0:17:44 | |
"somebody seated around this table this very evening shall betray me." | 0:17:44 | 0:17:49 | |
So, Judas down the end is kind of thinking, | 0:17:49 | 0:17:51 | |
"I suppose I should say something." | 0:17:51 | 0:17:54 | |
"Surely, not I, Lord? Surely, not I?" | 0:17:54 | 0:17:58 | |
And Jesus looks at him and says... | 0:17:58 | 0:18:00 | |
-MOCKINGLY: -"Surely, not I, Lord(!) Surely, not I(!)" | 0:18:00 | 0:18:04 | |

"Detectives required." | 0:18:18 | 0:18:19 | |
So they said, "Why not? We'll go in and apply." | 0:18:19 | 0:18:22 | |
Frank went outside and waited while they interviewed Liam. | 0:18:22 | 0:18:26 | |
They asked Liam a few questions and as he was leaving they said, | 0:18:26 | 0:18:30 | |
"Oh, by the way," he said, "Who killed Abraham Lincoln?" | 0:18:30 | 0:18:35 | |
"Oh," he said, "I'm not so sure," he said. | 0:18:35 | 0:18:37 | |
"All right," he said, "Go out and tell your friend to come in." | 0:18:37 | 0:18:41 | |
So he went out and he said, "How did you get on?" | 0:18:41 | 0:18:44 | |
He said, "Quite good - they have me on a murder inquiry already." | 0:18:44 | 0:18:48 | |

and she says, "You look a bit flustered, Tom, what's the problem?" | 0:19:12 | 0:19:16 | |
I said, "That postman from our street, he was in the pub | 0:19:16 | 0:19:19 | |
"and he's bragging about making love to every woman on this street." | 0:19:19 | 0:19:24 | |
He said he's made love to every woman on this street bar one. | 0:19:24 | 0:19:28 | |
"Oh," she says, "I bet it's that stuck-up bitch in number ten." | 0:19:28 | 0:19:33 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:19:33 | 0:19:36 | |
I was working in behind the bar and this guy comes up and he goes, | 0:19:36 | 0:19:40 | |
"Are you the boss?" | 0:19:40 | 0:19:42 | |
Sambuca! Tequila! Jagermeister! | 0:19:42 | 0:19:45 | |
I mightn't be the boss, but I do call the shots around here. | 0:19:45 | 0:19:49 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:19:49 | 0:19:52 | |
My dad regularly drank with three of his friends, | 0:19:52 | 0:19:56 | |
and one of these friends was a bit of a bore and a bit of a know-all. | 0:19:56 | 0:19:59 | |
So, one night they put him to the test. | 0:19:59 | 0:20:01 | |
They blindfolded him, poured out four whiskies, | 0:20:01 | 0:20:05 | |
and he turned round and he said, "That's the Bushmills. | 0:20:05 | 0:20:09 | |

"That's piss!" | 0:20:33 | 0:20:35 | |
"We know it's piss," they said, "But whose piss is it?" | 0:20:35 | 0:20:38 | |

"but ask what you can do for your country." | 0:20:59 | 0:21:02 | |
And there was a collective nod of approval. | 0:21:02 | 0:21:04 | |
And the Englishman said he'd like to be laid next to Winston Churchill. | 0:21:04 | 0:21:08 | |
"We'll fight them on the beaches, we'll fight them on the fields." | 0:21:08 | 0:21:12 | |
And again, there was a collective nod of approval. | 0:21:12 | 0:21:14 | |
And the Englishman said, | 0:21:14 | 0:21:16 | |
"Well, Seamus, who would you like to be laid next to?" | 0:21:16 | 0:21:19 | |
He said, "I'd like to be laid next to Coleen Rooney - | 0:21:19 | 0:21:23 | |

This man, he was very vain and he was in the chemist shop one day. | 0:21:35 | 0:21:40 | |
He was thinking of buying vanishing cream, you know, ageing cream? | 0:21:40 | 0:21:44 | |
He asked the girl behind the counter, he says to her, | 0:21:44 | 0:21:47 | |
"What age do you think I am?" | 0:21:47 | 0:21:50 | |
She says, "Oh, I don't know." She says, "About 40?" | 0:21:50 | 0:21:55 | |
He says, "No, actually, I'm 45." | 0:21:55 | 0:21:57 | |
He goes into the paper shop next door | 0:21:57 | 0:22:00 | |
and says to the girl behind the counter there, | 0:22:00 | 0:22:04 | |
"What age do you think I am?" | 0:22:04 | 0:22:06 | |
And she says, "About 40?" | 0:22:06 | 0:22:09 | |
"Oh, no," he says, "I'm 45." | 0:22:09 | 0:22:12 | |
Walks down the road, stands at the bus stop | 0:22:12 | 0:22:15 | |
and there was this old lady, about 85. | 0:22:15 | 0:22:18 | |
He says, "Madam, can I ask you a question? | 0:22:18 | 0:22:21 | |
"What age do you think I am?" | 0:22:21 | 0:22:22 | |
She says, "Well, there's only one way to tell," she says. | 0:22:22 | 0:22:26 | |
And he says, "How is that?" | 0:22:26 | 0:22:28 | |
"Well," she says, if you loosen your trousers," she says, | 0:22:28 | 0:22:31 | |
"And I can put my hand there, down," she says, "I'll be able to tell." | 0:22:31 | 0:22:36 | |
So, he undoes his trousers and the old lady puts her hand down | 0:22:36 | 0:22:41 | |
and she looks up at the sky with a big smile on her. | 0:22:41 | 0:22:44 | |
She's down for about half a minute. She takes her hand back out. | 0:22:44 | 0:22:47 | |
"You're 45," she says. | 0:22:47 | 0:22:49 | |
"Oh, my God," he says. "How the hell did you know that?" | 0:22:49 | 0:22:53 | |
She says, "I was behind you in the queue in the chemist." | 0:22:53 | 0:22:56 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:22:56 | 0:22:59 | |
I came out of the shop the other day, | 0:22:59 | 0:23:01 | |
I was just getting in the car, and this young fella come up, | 0:23:01 | 0:23:04 | |

This American tourist visited Ireland | 0:23:11 | 0:23:14 | |
on his way to find his ancestral home. | 0:23:14 | 0:23:18 | |
They hired a car. They headed for County Clare. | 0:23:18 | 0:23:22 | |
On the most rural part of Clare you could find, the car broke down | 0:23:22 | 0:23:26 | |
and there was no-one around, only two horses in a field. | 0:23:26 | 0:23:29 | |
One horse was looking out over the wall. | 0:23:29 | 0:23:31 | |
There was steam coming out of the bonnet | 0:23:31 | 0:23:34 | |
and he heard this voice say, "It's the fan belt." | 0:23:34 | 0:23:37 | |
So he looked around, and there was nobody around only this horse. | 0:23:37 | 0:23:41 | |
He got a pair of tights and he tied it on to the fan belt | 0:23:41 | 0:23:45 | |
and drove to the nearest garage. | 0:23:45 | 0:23:47 | |
And he says, "Funny thing happened to me when I broke down." | 0:23:47 | 0:23:51 | |
He said, "I heard this voice saying, 'It's the fan belt.' | 0:23:51 | 0:23:54 | |
"There was nobody around, only two horses." | 0:23:54 | 0:23:56 | |
And the mechanic says, "Was it a white horse or a black horse?" | 0:23:56 | 0:24:00 | |
"It was a black horse," he said. | 0:24:00 | 0:24:01 | |
"You're lucky, because the white horse knows nothing about cars." | 0:24:01 | 0:24:05 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:24:05 | 0:24:06 | |
There was this travelling salesman and he broke down | 0:24:06 | 0:24:09 | |
in the middle of nowhere and he headed up to this farmhouse | 0:24:09 | 0:24:13 | |
and he knocked on the door, and this farmer came to the door with a shot gun. | 0:24:13 | 0:24:16 | |
He says, "What the hell do you want?" | 0:24:16 | 0:24:18 | |
He says, "Excuse me, I've broken down. I need somewhere to rest for the night. | 0:24:18 | 0:24:21 | |
"You've a big house, do you mind if I stay? | 0:24:21 | 0:24:23 | |
The farmer says, "Absolutely no way." | 0:24:23 | 0:24:24 | |
He says, "You've got a big house, why not?" | 0:24:24 | 0:24:26 | |
He says, "Cos I've got two lovely daughters and I don't want you anywhere near them. | 0:24:26 | 0:24:30 | |
"But you can lie in that van out there | 0:24:30 | 0:24:32 | |
"and I'll send one of the girls out with blankets to you." | 0:24:32 | 0:24:35 | |
So, the two girls, one was Nellie, one was Jeanis. | 0:24:35 | 0:24:39 | |
He sent Nellie out with the blankets. | 0:24:39 | 0:24:40 | |
The two girls, they were 25, but they'd never seen a man before. | 0:24:40 | 0:24:43 | |
The woman seen the guy, and she fell in love with him straightaway. | 0:24:43 | 0:24:48 | |
So, they got together, had a little bit of jiggy-jiggy, | 0:24:48 | 0:24:51 | |
got out of the van, back in, and told Jeanis all about it. | 0:24:51 | 0:24:55 | |
Jeanis says, "If you're having some, I'm having some, too." | 0:24:55 | 0:24:58 | |
So, she went out to the van anyway, little bit of jiggy-jiggy, | 0:24:58 | 0:25:01 | |
back into the house, next morning, the travelling salesman wakes up | 0:25:01 | 0:25:04 | |
and he gives his business card to the farm. | 0:25:04 | 0:25:06 | |
He says, "Thank you very much for your hospitality. | 0:25:06 | 0:25:08 | |
"If you ever want me to return the favour, please get in contact." | 0:25:08 | 0:25:11 | |
Nothing was heard until about three months later, | 0:25:11 | 0:25:13 | |
and the travelling salesman got a letter from the farm that says, | 0:25:13 | 0:25:16 | |
Dear Sir... Are you the one that done the pushing, | 0:25:16 | 0:25:19 | |
left spots upon the cushion | 0:25:19 | 0:25:20 | |
and the footprints on the dashboard upside down? | 0:25:20 | 0:25:22 | |
Since being with our Nellie she's had trouble with her belly, | 0:25:22 | 0:25:24 | |
sir, I really think it's time you called around. | 0:25:24 | 0:25:27 | |
So, the guy panicked a little bit. He decided to write back. | 0:25:27 | 0:25:30 | |
He says, Dear Farmer... | 0:25:30 | 0:25:31 | |
Yes, I am the one that done the pushing and left the spots upon the cushion | 0:25:31 | 0:25:34 | |
and the footprints on the dashboard upside down | 0:25:34 | 0:25:36 | |
but since being with your Jeanis | 0:25:36 | 0:25:37 | |
I've had trouble with my penis, | 0:25:37 | 0:25:39 | |
so I think it's 50-50 all around. | 0:25:39 | 0:25:41 | |
APPLAUSE | 0:25:41 | 0:25:43 | |
A guy walks into a pub. | 0:25:43 | 0:25:45 | |
The landlord is in behind the bar and he's pulling pints, | 0:25:45 | 0:25:48 | |
chatting away to his customers. | 0:25:48 | 0:25:50 | |
Your man just stands there looking at him. | 0:25:50 | 0:25:54 | |
The landlord goes, "Are you all right?" | 0:25:54 | 0:25:57 | |
The man goes, "Yeah, I'm not too bad." | 0:25:57 | 0:26:01 | |
"Can I get you a drink?" | 0:26:01 | 0:26:03 | |
"Oh, I'll have a pint of Guinness." | 0:26:03 | 0:26:05 | |
He gives him the pint of Guinness. | 0:26:05 | 0:26:07 | |
The man picks it up, looks at it, downs it in one. | 0:26:07 | 0:26:11 | |
"That's a great pint of Guinness. Good luck." | 0:26:11 | 0:26:15 | |
The landlord goes, | 0:26:15 | 0:26:16 | |
"Here, hold on a minute, you owe me 3.70 for that pint." | 0:26:16 | 0:26:20 | |
"Ha-ha! Yeah, yeah, good luck." | 0:26:20 | 0:26:22 | |
The landlord jumps over the counter, runs out, grabs him, | 0:26:22 | 0:26:25 | |
he says, "I'm not messing with you. You owe me 3.70 for that pint." | 0:26:25 | 0:26:30 | |
Your man says, "No, I don't you anything." | 0:26:30 | 0:26:33 | |
The landlord says, "How do you work that out?" | 0:26:33 | 0:26:36 | |
"Well, I never asked you for a drink. | 0:26:36 | 0:26:38 | |
"You said to me, 'Can I get you a drink?'" He says, "And I accepted." | 0:26:38 | 0:26:43 | |
He says, "Less of that now. | 0:26:43 | 0:26:44 | |
"You won't pull one over on me. You owe me 3.70. | 0:26:44 | 0:26:47 | |
"Give it to me now, or else." | 0:26:47 | 0:26:50 | |
"Or else, what?" | 0:26:50 | 0:26:51 | |
"I'll call the police." | 0:26:51 | 0:26:53 | |
"Call whoever you want." | 0:26:53 | 0:26:54 | |
So, he calls the police. | 0:26:54 | 0:26:55 | |
The police come, the whole lot, they listen to both sides of the story. | 0:26:55 | 0:26:59 | |
And the policeman turns to the landlord and said, | 0:26:59 | 0:27:01 | |
"Well, to be fair, you did offer him a drink." | 0:27:01 | 0:27:03 | |
Your man says, "He owes me 3.70 and that's the end of it." | 0:27:03 | 0:27:06 | |
The policeman says, "Well, what do you want us to do? We can't arrest him." | 0:27:06 | 0:27:10 | |
"Well, take his details. I'll bring him to court." | 0:27:10 | 0:27:12 | |
So they take his details, the whole lot goes to court. | 0:27:12 | 0:27:14 | |
The judge listens to both sides. | 0:27:14 | 0:27:16 | |
The landlord, he's got top solicitors, the whole lot. | 0:27:16 | 0:27:19 | |
The landlord goes, "You were in a public house, you had a drink, | 0:27:19 | 0:27:23 | |
"you have to pay for it." The man said, "Fair enough, then." | 0:27:23 | 0:27:26 | |
Takes out 3.70 and leaves it there. | 0:27:26 | 0:27:28 | |
"Good luck, pal." Walks out. | 0:27:28 | 0:27:30 | |
The landlord is fuming. | 0:27:30 | 0:27:31 | |
The cost of solicitors, everything like that, | 0:27:31 | 0:27:33 | |
he's back in the pub, he's giving out to all the lads | 0:27:33 | 0:27:36 | |
and the whole lot going, "Thinks he can pull one over on me?!" | 0:27:36 | 0:27:39 | |
About six weeks had passed, what happens, | 0:27:39 | 0:27:42 | |
only your man walks back into the bar. | 0:27:42 | 0:27:45 | |
The landlord - "Get out! You're barred!" | 0:27:45 | 0:27:48 | |
Your man says, "What are you talking about?" | 0:27:48 | 0:27:50 | |
He goes, "Don't give me that. | 0:27:50 | 0:27:52 | |
"You come in here and you tried to do me over a pint." | 0:27:52 | 0:27:54 | |
He said, "I won't have it. Get out of this pub now!" | 0:27:54 | 0:27:57 | |
Your man is like, going, "Hold on a minute. | 0:27:57 | 0:28:00 | |
"I've never seen you in my life." | 0:28:00 | 0:28:03 | |
And the landlord - "We were up in court! 3.70 for the pint!" | 0:28:03 | 0:28:09 | |
"I'm telling you now, sir, | 0:28:09 | 0:28:11 | |
"I've never stepped foot inside this bar before." | 0:28:11 | 0:28:15 | |
The landlord is starting to doubt himself. | 0:28:15 | 0:28:17 | |
He is looking at him and saying, "What? | 0:28:17 | 0:28:21 | |
"Well, if it wasn't you, you must have a double." | 0:28:21 | 0:28:24 | |
"Well, that's very kind of you. I'll have a large whisky. No ice." | 0:28:24 | 0:28:29 | |
LAUGHTER AND APPLAUSE | 0:28:29 | 0:28:32 |
