0:06:16 > 0:06:19Good evening, McLadies and McGentlemen.

0:06:19 > 0:06:22They asked me to wear a funny costume, but I refused.

0:06:22 > 0:06:23Now...

0:06:25 > 0:06:26Lovely to be back here again.

0:06:26 > 0:06:30Mr Colehan, our producer, greeted me personally here today.

0:06:30 > 0:06:32The only man whose handlebar moustache has a bell on it.

0:06:32 > 0:06:34And...

0:06:34 > 0:06:36he looked me straight in the eye, he said,

0:06:36 > 0:06:37"You're back, you're back.

0:06:37 > 0:06:40"That's what we like to see - your back."

0:06:40 > 0:06:44A lovely man. He's been doing this show for 25 years, you know.

0:06:44 > 0:06:47The BBC say he's got to carry on till he gets it right. Now...

0:06:52 > 0:06:54To continue my farewell appearance, I'd like...

0:06:56 > 0:06:58..I'd like to greet my good friend Mr Sachs - good evening, sir.

0:06:58 > 0:07:01- Good evening to you.- I went to St Leonard's at the weekend -

0:07:01 > 0:07:03they all send their regards. Now...

0:07:03 > 0:07:06Mr Bernard Herrmann, our MD,

0:07:06 > 0:07:09which stands for "musical director" and not "doctor of medicine",

0:07:09 > 0:07:12although it has been suggested he could do with a little practice.

0:07:12 > 0:07:15Now...Bernard and the gentlemen of the orchestra

0:07:15 > 0:07:18are a veritable tower of strength to all the artistes in this show.

0:07:18 > 0:07:22To see them weaving their way back from the Duck & Pullet

0:07:22 > 0:07:24and entering the theatre

0:07:24 > 0:07:26and launching into the overture pizzicato

0:07:26 > 0:07:30is the experience of a lifetime, ladies and gentlemen.

0:07:30 > 0:07:31Now, enough of this tittle-tattle.

0:07:31 > 0:07:33That's a Scots expression.

0:07:33 > 0:07:34You know tittle-tattle.

0:07:34 > 0:07:36Oh, yes, a tattle was a garment,

0:07:36 > 0:07:38a woolly garment ladies wore on the chest,

0:07:38 > 0:07:40hence the expression. Now...

0:07:44 > 0:07:46Oh...

0:07:48 > 0:07:49I'm laughing cos I know what's coming next.

0:07:49 > 0:07:50I've had a hell...

0:07:52 > 0:07:54I don't usually listen, but tonight...

0:07:54 > 0:07:56I've had a marvellous year since I saw you.

0:07:56 > 0:08:00I attended the Inversnecky Folk Singing & Sporran-Burning Festival.

0:08:02 > 0:08:06Every night we used to gather round the camp fire singing folk songs

0:08:06 > 0:08:09and setting fire to each other's sporrans.

0:08:09 > 0:08:12You've never heard such top notes in your life.

0:08:14 > 0:08:20But the high spot, the high spot of my year, the veritable pinnacle,

0:08:20 > 0:08:22the veritable pinnacle...

0:08:22 > 0:08:24I do enjoy saying that. Shall we all say that?

0:08:24 > 0:08:27On the count of three - one, two, three...

0:08:27 > 0:08:29ALL: The veritable pinnacle!

0:08:29 > 0:08:31Wonderful - community joking.

0:08:31 > 0:08:33Oh, wonderful. The veritable pinnacle

0:08:33 > 0:08:36was in fact being invited to open the Highland Games.

0:08:36 > 0:08:40Oh, that was wonderful. After the initial traditional meal of haggis

0:08:40 > 0:08:42and senna pods,

0:08:42 > 0:08:45I did a lap of honour and...

0:08:46 > 0:08:49Well, you would, wouldn't you? Anyway...

0:08:49 > 0:08:50I'm blethering here.

0:08:50 > 0:08:53I never even told you the lassie I was singing about in the song.

0:08:53 > 0:08:55Her name is Bridie Angus.

0:08:55 > 0:08:59She's one of the Aberdeen Anguses and she's here tonight somewhere,

0:08:59 > 0:09:00somewhere up there.

0:09:00 > 0:09:02Oh, hello, Bridie!

0:09:02 > 0:09:03Oh, I'm sorry, sir.

0:09:03 > 0:09:05It was the moustache. For a moment...

0:09:05 > 0:09:07I met her at a tea dance.

0:09:07 > 0:09:10You don't half spill some during the lancers.

0:09:10 > 0:09:13I saw her in the corner, poor wee soul, a real wallflower,

0:09:13 > 0:09:14standing in a pot,

0:09:14 > 0:09:16and asked her to dance.

0:09:16 > 0:09:20While we were on the floor - well, not on the floor -

0:09:20 > 0:09:21I asked if I could see her home,

0:09:21 > 0:09:23so she showed me a photograph.

0:09:23 > 0:09:25And...

0:09:25 > 0:09:26we've been going steady ever since.

0:09:26 > 0:09:29I'm telling them about the tea dance, hen.

0:09:29 > 0:09:31I call her hen - she sleeps in the yard.

0:09:31 > 0:09:32I'm...

0:09:32 > 0:09:35I've been walking her up and down outside the theatre before the show.

0:09:35 > 0:09:38I think the black coffee's beginning to work. Are you all right, love?

0:09:38 > 0:09:41Are you all right? I blame the whisky - a shilling a tot.

0:09:41 > 0:09:43Oh, I can get her drunk on £8.

0:09:45 > 0:09:46I'm going to do the poem now

0:09:46 > 0:09:48for the ladies and gentlemen and you, Bridie.

0:09:48 > 0:09:50Wake her up, for God's sake, somebody.

0:09:50 > 0:09:53Here's the poem, love, here's the poem.

0:09:53 > 0:09:57You can search high and low, you can search near and far

0:09:57 > 0:09:59From Land's End up to John O'Groats

0:09:59 > 0:10:03For a love beyond others, but none can compare

0:10:03 > 0:10:05With a Scot and his love for his oats.

0:10:05 > 0:10:06Now there's the poem.

0:10:10 > 0:10:12CHEERING

0:10:16 > 0:10:19That was a near thing, love, wasn't it?

0:10:20 > 0:10:22All quality, no quantity. Now...

0:10:23 > 0:10:25..ladies and gentlemen,

0:10:25 > 0:10:26for Bridie and your good selves,

0:10:26 > 0:10:28we're going to sing the song again,

0:10:31 > 0:10:35cos you're going to sing it again with Mr Ian Wallace later on.

0:10:35 > 0:10:36Thank you, Mr Herrmann.

0:10:39 > 0:10:41# I love a lassie

0:10:41 > 0:10:43# A bonnie, bonnie lassie

0:12:13 > 0:12:19# For my smile he gave me love songs

0:12:19 > 0:12:26# For my kiss a ribbon for my hair

0:12:26 > 0:12:32# Coming home alone and in despair

0:12:32 > 0:12:40# For I left my heart there at Canterbury fair

0:12:45 > 0:12:52# "Tis nice to walk," said he to me and so we strolled away

0:12:52 > 0:13:00# "Tis nice to talk," said I but my, what could a body say?

0:13:00 > 0:13:07# His arm was soon around me, in my heart there danced a flame

0:13:07 > 0:13:11# For at last true love had found me

0:13:11 > 0:13:17# How I wish I'd asked his name

0:13:18 > 0:13:22# Now I'm coming home

0:13:40 > 0:13:43# But my heart will ache

0:13:43 > 0:13:48# For it will be his smile I see

0:13:48 > 0:13:54# And I know I'll ever love him

0:13:54 > 0:14:01# Ever hope we'll meet again somewhere

0:14:01 > 0:14:08# Coming home alone and in despair

0:19:18 > 0:19:22# A bold hippopotamus was standing one day

0:19:22 > 0:19:26# On the banks of the cool Shalimar

0:19:27 > 0:19:32# He gazed at the bottom as he peacefully lay

0:19:32 > 0:19:36# By the light of the evening star

0:19:36 > 0:19:42# Away on a hilltop sat combing her hair

0:19:42 > 0:19:46# His fair hippopotami maid

0:19:46 > 0:19:52# The hippopotamus was no ignoramus

0:19:52 > 0:19:56# So sang her this sweet serenade

0:19:58 > 0:20:03# Mud, mud, glorious mud

0:20:03 > 0:20:08# Nothing quite like it for cooling the blood

0:20:08 > 0:20:13# So follow me, follow, down to the hollow

0:20:13 > 0:20:21# And there let us wallow in glorious mud

0:20:24 > 0:20:29# The fair hippopotama he aimed to entice

0:20:29 > 0:20:33# From her seat on that hilltop above

0:20:34 > 0:20:38# As she hadn't got a ma to give her advice

0:20:38 > 0:20:42# Came tiptoeing down to her love

0:20:44 > 0:20:48# Like thunder the forest re-echoed the sound

0:20:48 > 0:20:53# Of the song that they sang when they met

0:20:53 > 0:20:59# His inamorata adjusted her garter

0:20:59 > 0:21:03# And lifted her voice in duet

0:21:05 > 0:21:10- HIGH PITCHED: - # Mud, mud, glorious mud

0:21:31 > 0:21:36# Now more hippopotami began to convene

0:21:36 > 0:21:41# On the banks of that river so wide

0:21:41 > 0:21:46# I wonder now what am I to say of the scene

0:21:46 > 0:21:50# That ensued by the Shalimar side?

0:21:51 > 0:21:57# They dived all at once with an ear-splitting splosh

0:21:57 > 0:22:02# Then rose to the surface again

0:22:02 > 0:22:08# A regular army of hippopotami

0:22:08 > 0:22:12# All singing this haunting refrain... #

0:22:12 > 0:22:15All together now!

0:22:15 > 0:22:20# Mud, mud, glorious mud

0:30:47 > 0:30:50# What with illness and with age

0:30:50 > 0:30:55# "I-I c-cannot s-sing t-tonight," he falters

0:30:55 > 0:30:59# As he speaks, he bows his head

0:32:00 > 0:32:03# Neither could he sing nor speak

0:32:03 > 0:32:06# Maybe twas the glorious triumph

0:32:06 > 0:32:09# That his memory still could trace

0:32:09 > 0:32:12# Where he'd shone the best and brightest

0:32:12 > 0:32:16# In the very self-same place

0:32:28 > 0:32:31# How could he assay to please them?
