0:00:02 > 0:00:04Ladies and gentlemen, Jasper Carrott!

0:00:04 > 0:00:06CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

0:00:15 > 0:00:16Thank you.

0:00:16 > 0:00:19CHEERING AND APPLAUSE CONTINUES

0:00:23 > 0:00:24Thank you!

0:00:24 > 0:00:26Thank you very much.

0:00:26 > 0:00:30You... You remember me! Good start, good start!

0:00:30 > 0:00:33Hi there. Welcome to the show.

0:00:33 > 0:00:37Now, I haven't done TV for quite a while

0:00:37 > 0:00:40and you're looking at me thinking, "Yes, we know."

0:00:40 > 0:00:43There's a very good reason why I haven't done it

0:00:43 > 0:00:47because I can't dance, I can't skate and I'm a crap cook.

0:00:47 > 0:00:49LAUGHTER

0:00:49 > 0:00:52It's been fascinating. I'm sort of back on the road.

0:00:52 > 0:00:55Some things have changed, some haven't.

0:00:55 > 0:00:58I've had to change the backstage hospitality a bit.

0:00:58 > 0:01:02For years, you know, it's been booze, uppers, downers,

0:01:02 > 0:01:04that's all had to change now.

0:01:04 > 0:01:07Now, now I have to insist on Deep Heat...

0:01:08 > 0:01:09Horlicks...

0:01:11 > 0:01:12..and a bath with a door in it.

0:01:12 > 0:01:15LAUGHTER

0:01:20 > 0:01:22As you get older, cor, my God, I don't half snore!

0:01:22 > 0:01:26Do I snore, eh? You ask Cheryl Cole.

0:01:28 > 0:01:32People don't let you forget that you're getting older.

0:01:32 > 0:01:34You are constantly reminded.

0:01:34 > 0:01:36I mean, you turn on the television

0:01:36 > 0:01:40and there's that advert by Michael Parkinson, eh?

0:01:40 > 0:01:45That's right. And he's telling me it's time I planned my own funeral.

0:01:45 > 0:01:47And I have to pay for it

0:01:47 > 0:01:50by sending him the money!

0:01:50 > 0:01:54Oh, and if I sign up, he'll send me a free gift...

0:01:54 > 0:01:55a shovel.

0:01:57 > 0:02:00Actually, I don't have to go to those lengths

0:02:00 > 0:02:03because I have life insurance.

0:02:03 > 0:02:05Yes!

0:02:05 > 0:02:10I tell you, I'm always impressed by life insurance salesmen.

0:02:10 > 0:02:12I think they're brilliant, cos what they're saying is,

0:02:12 > 0:02:17"Right, right, Mr Carrott, OK. Every month you'll give us loads of money

0:02:17 > 0:02:20"and when you die, we give it you back."

0:02:21 > 0:02:24Selling time-share's a piece of cake after that!

0:02:26 > 0:02:29But of course, they don't give it me back.

0:02:29 > 0:02:34They give it to my children, which is...which is a double-edged sword

0:02:34 > 0:02:37because it might give my children piece of mind,

0:02:37 > 0:02:40but it also gives them a motive.

0:02:43 > 0:02:46I'm getting concerned. They keep sending me to Switzerland.

0:02:50 > 0:02:54Hotel Dignitas.

0:02:54 > 0:02:56They found it on lastminute.com.

0:03:00 > 0:03:03APPLAUSE

0:03:06 > 0:03:09I've been a couple of times, it's really weird!

0:03:09 > 0:03:11I'm the only one who comes down for breakfast.

0:03:16 > 0:03:18And what do they give you for breakfast?

0:03:18 > 0:03:20Cheerios.

0:04:42 > 0:04:47At long last, people get a glimpse of Katie Price without her make-up.

0:04:47 > 0:04:49LAUGHTER

0:04:49 > 0:04:51APPLAUSE

0:04:52 > 0:04:57What I find is that...my generation, and I call them the Baby Boomers,

0:04:57 > 0:04:58if you like,

0:04:58 > 0:05:01we have had to pay for everybody.

0:05:01 > 0:05:04I mean, I've paid for my children when they were young,

0:05:04 > 0:05:06I paid for my parents when they got old,

0:05:06 > 0:05:09I'm going to have to pay for myself when I'm dead

0:05:09 > 0:05:13and now I'm going to have to pay for grandchildren.

0:05:14 > 0:05:15Whoopee(!)

0:05:15 > 0:05:17OK, I've got grandchildren.

0:05:17 > 0:05:20Let me get rid of a myth here, right.

0:05:20 > 0:05:22I mean, they say, "Oh, grandchildren, how wonderful,

0:05:22 > 0:05:26"cos like, when you've finished playing with them and you're bored,

0:05:26 > 0:05:28"you can hand them back."

0:05:29 > 0:05:30Balder-dollocks!

0:05:32 > 0:05:34You can't get rid of them, they're like herpes!

0:05:38 > 0:05:43And if me and the missus want to go out, we have to pay for babysitters!

0:05:44 > 0:05:46And if we can't find babysitters,

0:05:46 > 0:05:48we have to ask the parents to come round

0:05:48 > 0:05:51and they won't unless we pay 'em!

0:05:54 > 0:05:57And they're forever at the house, I can't get rid of them.

0:05:57 > 0:06:00I'm cleaning up after them, arm stuck halfway up the U-bend

0:06:00 > 0:06:03cos Buzz Lightyear's gone scuba diving.

0:06:04 > 0:06:06And me back's killing me!

0:06:06 > 0:06:08I mean, three hours solid

0:06:08 > 0:06:11playing piggy back with my five-year-old granddaughter, eh?

0:06:11 > 0:06:13I fell off.

0:06:13 > 0:06:15LAUGHTER

0:06:15 > 0:06:18The thing is, we don't make it easy for ourselves, you know?

0:06:18 > 0:06:21Cos like, as soon as we get to 40

0:06:21 > 0:06:24we all want to look 20 and that's when the Botox comes in

0:06:24 > 0:06:27and the liposuction and the surgery.

0:06:27 > 0:06:29And of course, surgery can go wrong.

0:06:32 > 0:06:34You won't remember this, but I used to be black.

0:06:36 > 0:06:41And I find that getting old does have its advantages.

0:06:41 > 0:06:44I mean, I'm a great admirer of cougars.

0:06:44 > 0:06:45Phwoar.

0:06:45 > 0:06:47Yeah? You know what I'm on about?

0:06:47 > 0:06:49Come on!

0:06:49 > 0:06:51You know, mature women on the prowl,

0:06:51 > 0:06:54lusting for intimate relationships with younger men.

0:06:54 > 0:06:56"Go for it, girls, yeah!"

0:06:57 > 0:07:00A cougar for me would be 98...

0:07:03 > 0:07:06..with an insatiable lust for bingo.

0:07:06 > 0:07:08Where would you go after a date?

0:07:08 > 0:07:10Back to her place, the care home.

0:07:11 > 0:07:13Up and down all night...

0:07:13 > 0:07:15on the stairlift.

0:07:16 > 0:07:19Actually, Stannah have got a new stairlift out.

0:07:19 > 0:07:21It's called the Rapide.

0:07:21 > 0:07:24It gets you to the top of the stairs

0:07:24 > 0:07:29before you forget what you were going up there for in the first place.

0:07:29 > 0:07:32What does take some getting used to

0:07:32 > 0:07:35is that young people used to respect older people

0:07:35 > 0:07:37but that's not the case anymore.

0:07:37 > 0:07:40We have to respect young people. That's the way it is.

0:07:40 > 0:07:44Cos it's a young people's world and everything is geared to youth.

0:07:44 > 0:07:49Advertising agencies are obsessed with youth. Why? I don't know.

0:07:49 > 0:07:52I mean, we've got the money.

0:07:52 > 0:07:57But why are they advertising BMWs to people with paper rounds?

0:07:58 > 0:07:59Doesn't make sense to me.

0:07:59 > 0:08:02And I mean, all the adverts are for young people.

0:08:02 > 0:08:06The only advert on TV for me is Specsavers.

0:08:07 > 0:08:08And I can't read it.

0:08:10 > 0:08:14And the drinks they advertise. I don't understand them.

0:08:14 > 0:08:15I don't know what they are.

0:08:15 > 0:08:18WKD, Wicked. What is it?

0:08:18 > 0:08:22I don't know. Soup? Beer? Wine? I haven't got a clue.

0:08:22 > 0:08:26And Jagermeister, Aftershock. Why don't they make drinks for us?

0:08:26 > 0:08:29You know, something like a Night Nurse Breezer.

0:08:31 > 0:08:34A Sanatogen Slammer.

0:08:34 > 0:08:39Or how about an alcopop made out of syrup of figs and Imodium?

0:08:40 > 0:08:44You wouldn't know whether you're coming or going, would you?

0:08:44 > 0:08:46APPLAUSE

0:08:50 > 0:08:54This is the biggest investment Aston Villa have ever made, Sergei.

0:08:54 > 0:08:56Relax, my friend, he is insured.

0:08:56 > 0:08:58I'm not talking about insurance,

0:08:58 > 0:09:00I'm talking about the threat of kidnapping!

0:09:00 > 0:09:03My lad needs physical protection while he's in hospital.

0:09:03 > 0:09:05You make sure he gets the best, will you?

0:09:05 > 0:09:08Don't worry, he has your very own Sherlock and Holmes.

0:09:17 > 0:09:18Sherlock and Holmes.

0:09:18 > 0:09:19That's us.

0:09:19 > 0:09:21- S.A.S?- Safety and...

0:09:21 > 0:09:23Senility.

0:09:23 > 0:09:26Security. He's Sherlock, I'm Holmes.

0:09:26 > 0:09:27Thought I was Holmes?

0:09:27 > 0:09:29Gentlemen, can I help you?

0:09:29 > 0:09:32Yes, we're supposed to be looking after a Mr Kolyvagin.

0:09:32 > 0:09:33He's got tonsillitis.

0:09:33 > 0:09:35He's in the anaesthetic suite.

0:09:35 > 0:09:38The porters will be down in a couple of minutes to take him into surgery.

0:09:38 > 0:09:40Thank you.

0:09:40 > 0:09:42- Who's Sherlock and Holmes? - Famous detectives.

0:09:42 > 0:09:44Well, I've never heard of them.

0:09:44 > 0:09:46Just cos you don't read Shakespeare.

0:09:50 > 0:09:52MACHINE BEEPS

0:09:55 > 0:09:59Right, the first rule of security.

0:09:59 > 0:10:02Don't let the client play with your Taser gun.

0:10:02 > 0:10:05That happened once. You'll not let it go, will you?

0:10:05 > 0:10:08- You gave him a heart attack. - I thought it was a hairdryer.

0:10:08 > 0:10:11It certainly made his hair stand on end.

0:10:11 > 0:10:12Anyway, that's not a rule.

0:10:12 > 0:10:16The first rule of security is to secure all access points.

0:10:17 > 0:10:19Oh, right. Oh, hang on a minute.

0:10:19 > 0:10:23Ooh, they can get in and out of here easy enough, can't they?

0:10:23 > 0:10:26We don't want him exposed to that, he's going to catch his death.

0:10:26 > 0:10:28Er...let's move him.

0:10:30 > 0:10:34Hey, not so fast. These hands are deadly weapons.

0:10:34 > 0:10:36We're the porters.

0:10:36 > 0:10:38Just what a Russian mafia kidnapper'd say.

0:10:38 > 0:10:40Badge. We work here.

0:10:40 > 0:10:43Show him your Taser, that'll do it.

0:10:43 > 0:10:45I left it in the office.

0:10:46 > 0:10:48I've got the hairdryer.

0:10:48 > 0:10:49Can we get on with this?

0:10:49 > 0:10:51We need to get this bloke to surgery.

0:10:51 > 0:10:53We can't let him out of our sight.

0:10:53 > 0:10:55Says his name's McGuffin on here.

0:10:55 > 0:10:56That's the other bloke.

0:10:56 > 0:11:00Oh, our mistake! Sorry.

0:11:00 > 0:11:02- On you go.- Sorry.

0:11:05 > 0:11:08- That could have been embarrassing. - Better safe than sorry.

0:11:08 > 0:11:11After all these years you're still paranoid, aren't you?

0:11:11 > 0:11:12Come on, lighten up a bit.

0:11:12 > 0:11:14Watch your backs!

0:11:14 > 0:11:16OK, easy as you go, lads. Take it easy.

0:11:19 > 0:11:20Leave this to me, all right?

0:11:20 > 0:11:24Some of us have still got our police instinct.

0:11:24 > 0:11:25All right, lads?

0:11:25 > 0:11:26Good day to you.

0:11:26 > 0:11:31The sun is always shining in Leamington Spa.

0:11:31 > 0:11:33I wouldn't know, I've never been.

0:11:33 > 0:11:38Enough small talk. We are here for comrade Mr Kolyvagin.

0:11:38 > 0:11:41Now, you're not here to kidnap him, are you?

0:11:42 > 0:11:45DAVE LAUGHS

0:11:45 > 0:11:48- ALL LAUGH - Sound. Come on, this way.

0:11:55 > 0:11:57PUNCHES THROWN AND SCUFFLING

0:12:03 > 0:12:05HE SHOUTS IN RUSSIAN

0:12:07 > 0:12:09Stop! He's broken my leg!

0:12:09 > 0:12:12You're such a wimp. Hang on a minute, hang on.

0:12:16 > 0:12:17Sorry, needs must.

0:12:17 > 0:12:19Police! Police!

0:12:19 > 0:12:20We are the police!

0:12:20 > 0:12:24- 'Doors closing. Going down.'- They're in the lift, they're in the lift!

0:12:24 > 0:12:26Wait! Aah!

0:12:26 > 0:12:27Come on, Bob, the stairs!

0:12:27 > 0:12:31Me hands. You're not worried about me hands, are you, no?

0:12:31 > 0:12:33BOB PANTS

0:12:33 > 0:12:35I'm getting too old for this.

0:12:35 > 0:12:38All right for you. You've been sitting down the whole way.

0:12:38 > 0:12:41- What you doing?- It's oxygen. - You can't do that.

0:12:41 > 0:12:44That is abuse of hospital property.

0:12:44 > 0:12:46We are in enough trouble as it is.

0:12:46 > 0:12:48We've lost a £100 million footballer.

0:12:48 > 0:12:50Here, give us a swig.

0:12:50 > 0:12:52DAVE INHALES DEEPLY

0:12:56 > 0:12:59APPLAUSE

0:12:59 > 0:13:02# There she was just walking down the street

0:13:02 > 0:13:04# Singing, do-wah diddy-diddy dum diddy-do... #

0:13:04 > 0:13:06- WOMAN SHOUTS:- Turn it off!

0:13:06 > 0:13:08# Tappin' her fingers... #

0:13:08 > 0:13:09Oi!

0:13:09 > 0:13:12APPLAUSE

0:13:13 > 0:13:17Dad, why does it have to be so loud?

0:13:17 > 0:13:19It's not loud, I can hardly hear it.

0:13:19 > 0:13:21I'm going out soon, anyway.

0:13:21 > 0:13:24Whoa, whoa, are you going to go out dressed like that?

0:13:27 > 0:13:28Like what?

0:13:28 > 0:13:31Like Jeremy Clarkson in Primark.

0:13:31 > 0:13:33All the lads wear this.

0:13:33 > 0:13:35All right. Got your mobile phone?

0:13:35 > 0:13:36Yes.

0:13:36 > 0:13:38Have you learnt to text yet?

0:13:38 > 0:13:39Boring!

0:13:39 > 0:13:42Oh, God. All right, well, if you lose it

0:13:42 > 0:13:46- you pay for it out of your own winter fuel allowance.- What?!

0:13:46 > 0:13:47Where are you going to go?

0:13:47 > 0:13:49- HE MUMBLES - I'll go out and em...

0:13:49 > 0:13:52You're off to the golf club again, aren't you?

0:13:52 > 0:13:54Well, there's nothing to do round here, is there?

0:13:54 > 0:13:59You cannot spend all day mucking about in a sandpit.

0:14:00 > 0:14:03- Why don't you get a job? - I had a job!

0:14:03 > 0:14:04What happened to it?

0:14:04 > 0:14:07I turned up one day and someone else was doing it.

0:14:08 > 0:14:12- SHE SNIFFS - What's that... What's that smell?

0:14:14 > 0:14:15What are you wearing?

0:14:15 > 0:14:17VapoRub.

0:14:17 > 0:14:19LAUGHTER

0:14:19 > 0:14:20- Really?- The ladies love it!

0:14:20 > 0:14:23Oh. Ooh! Have you got protection?

0:14:23 > 0:14:25Oh!

0:14:26 > 0:14:28- Yes!- Thank you.

0:14:29 > 0:14:32And don't forget what I told you about drugs.

0:14:32 > 0:14:37- HE SIGHS - Don't get the arthritis ones mixed up with the angina ones.

0:14:37 > 0:14:38Very good.

0:14:38 > 0:14:41So what time shall I pick you up?

0:14:41 > 0:14:42You don't have to do that.

0:14:42 > 0:14:46Whoa, whoa, whoa. Last time the police brought you home.

0:14:46 > 0:14:49- Yes, but...- And why did the police bring you home?

0:14:50 > 0:14:52Because I couldn't remember where I lived.

0:14:52 > 0:14:54Mm.

0:14:54 > 0:14:56And...you couldn't walk in a straight line.

0:14:56 > 0:14:58Well, I've got a new hip now!

0:14:58 > 0:15:01I'm not having any of this nonsense any more.

0:15:01 > 0:15:04Any more trouble, there will be no Countdown for a week.

0:15:04 > 0:15:07It's like living with Adolf Hitler here!

0:15:07 > 0:15:09It's... Who?

0:15:11 > 0:15:12All right, OK.

0:15:12 > 0:15:15You know what, I'll pick you up at 11.

0:15:15 > 0:15:16- 11?- Yes.

0:15:16 > 0:15:1811?!

0:15:18 > 0:15:20I'm not a teenager!

0:15:20 > 0:15:22All right! Half past nine.

0:15:22 > 0:15:23Thank you.

0:15:23 > 0:15:27LAUGHTER AND APPLAUSE

0:15:27 > 0:15:29- Well, have a lovely time.- Thank you.

0:15:29 > 0:15:31Whoa, going to give us a kiss?

0:15:31 > 0:15:34What? Oh, do I have to?

0:15:34 > 0:15:36No-one's here to see!

0:15:36 > 0:15:37Thank you.

0:15:37 > 0:15:39I feel a big sissy now!

0:15:40 > 0:15:42Oi!

0:15:42 > 0:15:43- Now what?!- Woolly hat.

0:15:49 > 0:15:52I can still have you adopted, you know!

0:15:52 > 0:15:56CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

0:15:58 > 0:16:00OK, OK. Here's a task.

0:16:00 > 0:16:05Give me a word that rhymes with bankers.

0:16:09 > 0:16:11You didn't have to phone a friend, did you? No.

0:16:11 > 0:16:15That's two different words that mean exactly the same thing.

0:16:15 > 0:16:19And these tosspots have destroyed the economy of the world.

0:16:19 > 0:16:24I mean, I've got a friend who is a banker and he is ashamed to admit it.

0:16:24 > 0:16:27He refuses he has anything to do with banking.

0:16:27 > 0:16:30He'll admit to being a British National Party supporter...

0:16:32 > 0:16:34..but banker? No.

0:16:34 > 0:16:36You see, the trouble began

0:16:36 > 0:16:39when bankers started to loan money they haven't got,

0:16:39 > 0:16:41to people they didn't know,

0:16:41 > 0:16:44to buy houses they couldn't afford

0:16:44 > 0:16:46at interest rates that were astronomical.

0:16:46 > 0:16:49They paid themselves fortunes to do it

0:16:49 > 0:16:52and when it all went belly up, they threw their hands in the air

0:16:52 > 0:16:55and went, "Pfft, who could have predicted that?"

0:16:56 > 0:16:57Yeah.

0:16:57 > 0:16:59Yeah.

0:17:02 > 0:17:06All these bankers running out of the woods going,

0:17:06 > 0:17:09"You won't believe what the bears are doing in there!"

0:17:12 > 0:17:14And do the bankers blame themselves?

0:17:14 > 0:17:17No. They blame the pigs.

0:17:19 > 0:17:21No, not the police, the PIGS...

0:17:21 > 0:17:24that's Portugal, Ireland, Greece and Spain.

0:17:24 > 0:17:27Countries that are all going bankrupt

0:17:27 > 0:17:30and expecting us to get them out of the mire.

0:17:30 > 0:17:31Does that not worry you?

0:17:31 > 0:17:36Because on the horizon is Hungary, Italy,

0:17:36 > 0:17:39Turkey and Estonia.

0:17:39 > 0:17:42Then you'll have pig shite.

0:17:42 > 0:17:45LAUGHTER

0:17:45 > 0:17:47APPLAUSE So...

0:17:51 > 0:17:55I mean, it's farcical. I mean, let's take Greece. OK?

0:17:55 > 0:17:58Well, we could do, the amount of money we've given them.

0:17:58 > 0:18:00Six billion euros!

0:18:00 > 0:18:02I mean, what are they spending it on?

0:18:02 > 0:18:05It's not new buildings, is it?

0:18:05 > 0:18:07It's not driving lessons.

0:18:08 > 0:18:11I tell you what they spend it on...

0:18:11 > 0:18:12the military.

0:18:12 > 0:18:15Greece has a population of 11 million people.

0:18:15 > 0:18:20Half a million of them are in the army. Half a million!

0:18:20 > 0:18:22How many troops do you need

0:18:22 > 0:18:25to protect Mykonos from British hen parties?

0:18:27 > 0:18:30And who's going to invade Greece? It won't be America, will it?

0:18:30 > 0:18:33Oh, no, the only oil in Greece is in the food.

0:18:35 > 0:18:39But, have you seen the Greek military?

0:18:39 > 0:18:41I mean, it is farcical.

0:18:41 > 0:18:45They wear those military slippers with pompoms on

0:18:45 > 0:18:47and ra-ra skirts and beanie hats.

0:18:47 > 0:18:51It'd be like being invaded by half a million Morris dancers.

0:18:54 > 0:18:57But of course, the language of money is changing.

0:18:57 > 0:19:01I was trying to explain to my grandchildren what a trillion was.

0:19:01 > 0:19:03And this is a fact,

0:19:03 > 0:19:06that if Jesus Christ had spent

0:19:06 > 0:19:11a million pounds a day from the day he was born to the present day,

0:19:11 > 0:19:16he wouldn't even be anywhere near spending a trillion pounds.

0:19:16 > 0:19:18It's that much.

0:19:18 > 0:19:22And not that Jesus would spend a million pounds a day.

0:19:22 > 0:19:25Oh, no, Jesus saves.

0:19:25 > 0:19:28LAUGHTER

0:19:36 > 0:19:39They ought to put him in goal at the Arsenal.

0:19:42 > 0:19:45I mean, a billionaire is a rich man now

0:19:45 > 0:19:48and there's a race on of course, to be the first trillionaire.

0:19:48 > 0:19:51It's between Bill Gates, the Sultan of Brunei

0:19:51 > 0:19:53and Manchester City's centre forward.

0:19:55 > 0:19:59And I don't know about you, I've lost track of the meaning of money.

0:19:59 > 0:20:01I mean, I was on the train

0:20:01 > 0:20:04coming down from Birmingham to here last week.

0:20:04 > 0:20:07Yes, yes, I can afford the train.

0:20:08 > 0:20:10It's flash, isn't it?

0:20:10 > 0:20:15And I bought a cup of tea and it was £1.70.

0:20:16 > 0:20:19£1.70 for a cup of tea.

0:20:19 > 0:20:20It's a tea bag and some water.

0:20:20 > 0:20:22£1.70!

0:20:22 > 0:20:25You could go to Asda and get kitted out for a wedding for that!

0:20:30 > 0:20:33People are losing confidence in money

0:20:33 > 0:20:37which is why they are now prepared to pay nearly 2,000

0:20:37 > 0:20:39for an ounce of gold.

0:20:39 > 0:20:42And why? Why are people buying gold?

0:20:42 > 0:20:44I mean, it's not an essential, is it?

0:20:44 > 0:20:47It's not like food or golf.

0:20:49 > 0:20:52It's just soft and melty but we buy it.

0:20:52 > 0:20:56You might just as well have a monetary system based upon Mars bars.

0:20:56 > 0:20:59Soft, melty but at least you can eat them.

0:20:59 > 0:21:01And it's not so daft

0:21:01 > 0:21:04because economists use something called the Mars Bar Principle

0:21:04 > 0:21:08and what it means is that Mars bars - ever since they've been made -

0:21:08 > 0:21:11have held their value in relative terms

0:21:11 > 0:21:15because in 1950, a week's wages would buy you 500 Mars bars

0:21:15 > 0:21:18and a week's wages today would buy you 500 Mars bars.

0:21:18 > 0:21:23Now, if Jesus Christ had invested

0:21:23 > 0:21:28one million pounds a day in chocolate bars,

0:21:28 > 0:21:32today he would have 735 billion of them...

0:21:33 > 0:21:34..and diabetes.

0:21:38 > 0:21:40But money is becoming even more ludicrous now

0:21:40 > 0:21:43because the Government are starting something called

0:21:43 > 0:21:45"quantitative easing."

0:21:45 > 0:21:47Not easy to say.

0:21:47 > 0:21:50Basically, it's a euphemism for printing money.

0:21:50 > 0:21:54They're just going to print money out of thin air.

0:21:54 > 0:21:57£275 billion of it.

0:21:57 > 0:22:02I mean, you know, it's like "Go straight to jail, do not pass go."

0:22:02 > 0:22:04We're in Monopoly world here.

0:22:04 > 0:22:06The point is, if this carries on,

0:22:06 > 0:22:10eventually, the cost of the paper and the ink to print the money

0:22:10 > 0:22:13will be more than the face value of the money they're printing.

0:22:13 > 0:22:16So the Government are going to have to borrow more money

0:22:16 > 0:22:19to pay for the cost of printing the money they're borrowing

0:22:19 > 0:22:22to pay for the cost of printing the money

0:22:22 > 0:22:24that's not worth the paper it's written on!

0:22:24 > 0:22:27APPLAUSE

0:22:33 > 0:22:35And you tell people that and they don't believe you!

0:22:37 > 0:22:39At home, this is for real.

0:22:39 > 0:22:40At home, seriously,

0:22:40 > 0:22:45I have a ten trillion dollar Zimbabwean bank note.

0:22:45 > 0:22:49Seriously, A ten trillion dollar Zimbabwean bank note.

0:22:49 > 0:22:51It's the length of a toilet roll

0:22:51 > 0:22:55and ironically, it's not enough to buy a toilet roll in Zimbabwe.

0:22:55 > 0:22:57And in fact, people in Zimbabwe

0:22:57 > 0:23:00use the bank notes instead of toilet paper,

0:23:00 > 0:23:03which is satisfying because after 30 years of Mugabe,

0:23:03 > 0:23:06his face is finally being put to good use.

0:23:17 > 0:23:18Bob?

0:23:18 > 0:23:19Bob?

0:23:19 > 0:23:22Just another couple of minutes, sweetheart.

0:23:23 > 0:23:25Give me a nice, big cuddle.

0:23:25 > 0:23:26BOB!

0:23:26 > 0:23:27Yaargh!

0:23:28 > 0:23:31We are in deep trouble!

0:23:31 > 0:23:32No-one need find out.

0:23:32 > 0:23:34We didn't do anything, did we?

0:23:34 > 0:23:36Not that!

0:23:36 > 0:23:40You have lost one hundred million pounds worth of footballer.

0:23:40 > 0:23:42- Me?- Yes, you!

0:23:42 > 0:23:44Dave?

0:23:44 > 0:23:45God, they'll lynch us.

0:23:45 > 0:23:47- Dave.- What?

0:23:47 > 0:23:49That footballer bloke...

0:23:49 > 0:23:50Yeah, the one you lost!

0:23:50 > 0:23:52Yeah, him.

0:23:52 > 0:23:54We switched him over.

0:23:54 > 0:23:56Yes.

0:23:56 > 0:23:59He was here.

0:23:59 > 0:24:02- BOTH:- And now, he's here!

0:24:03 > 0:24:05- THEY CHEER - We've done it!

0:24:05 > 0:24:08What is all that noise? Oh, it's you two.

0:24:08 > 0:24:10Finally awake, are we?

0:24:10 > 0:24:12What are we doing here?

0:24:12 > 0:24:16We found you in the corridor, so we popped you into bed.

0:24:16 > 0:24:17He's here!

0:24:17 > 0:24:21Yes, of course he's here. Would you please keep your voices down.

0:24:21 > 0:24:23He's recovering from surgery.

0:24:25 > 0:24:28Dave? He's still got his tonsils.

0:24:29 > 0:24:33Of course he's still has his tonsils! Why wouldn't he?

0:24:33 > 0:24:37We don't remove a man's tonsils when we amputate a leg, do we now?

0:24:39 > 0:24:43Mr McGuffin here had blood clots, not tonsillitis.

0:24:48 > 0:24:49DOOR CLOSES

0:24:52 > 0:24:53Waa-ah!

0:24:53 > 0:24:56BOB YELLS

0:24:56 > 0:24:59This was our £100 million footballer!

0:24:59 > 0:25:01He's only worth £50 million now.

0:25:01 > 0:25:05- Let's get out of here. - What's the hurry, he's not going to chase us?!

0:25:05 > 0:25:09- It's not him I'm worried about. - BOB WHIMPERS

0:25:11 > 0:25:13- Hello.- Can I help you?

0:25:13 > 0:25:14Yes, we're just here to see

0:25:14 > 0:25:17how Mr Kolyvagin's recovering after his tonsillectomy?

0:25:20 > 0:25:22You know what this means, don't you?

0:25:22 > 0:25:25Yep, we have to change the name of the company.

0:25:25 > 0:25:28The end of the road for Sherlock and Holmes.

0:25:28 > 0:25:30How about Scotland and Yard?

0:25:31 > 0:25:33Rockford and Files?

0:25:33 > 0:25:35We'll be back.

0:25:38 > 0:25:40APPLAUSE

0:25:40 > 0:25:43A few years ago, I was turned down by Black Sabbath.

0:25:43 > 0:25:44Ugh!

0:25:44 > 0:25:48So I'm getting my own back and I've got my own supergroup tonight.
