OFF-KEY: # Deaf

# But in most modern works for the voice

0:14:410:14:44

# The note that you hit doesn't matter a bit

# Musically D-E-A-F

0:14:540:14:56

LAUGHTER

0:16:590:17:01

It is not only a great honour to come to speak to you

0:17:010:17:04

in this hall tonight,

0:17:040:17:06

it is also highly inconvenient.

0:17:060:17:09

I see, by the way, sir, that you're showing your medals.

0:17:100:17:13

Really?

0:17:130:17:15

LAUGHTER

0:17:150:17:16

-Oh, the medals.

-Yeah, yeah.

-Yes, I got that one for bravery.

-Oh.

0:17:160:17:21

-I saved the whole regiment from being killed.

-How did you do that?

0:17:210:17:25

I shot the cook. LAUGHTER

0:17:250:17:28

-AUDIENCE:

-Whoo!

0:17:300:17:32

Now, I've just remembered...

0:17:320:17:34

-I've just remembered, Mr Sachs.

-Yes, sir?

0:17:340:17:37

Do you mind if I lend you my hat to look after for me?

0:17:370:17:39

-No, it's a lovely topi.

-I've just remembered where I last saw you.

0:17:390:17:42

-Where was that?

-In the Boer War, wasn't it?

-Yes.

0:17:420:17:45

Course it was!

0:17:450:17:47

That was at the battle of Bloem... Boem.....

0:17:470:17:50

Yeah, Bloemfontein. And Majuba Hill.

0:17:500:17:54

You filthy swine. LAUGHTER

0:17:540:17:56

Yeah, that was where it was.

0:17:560:17:58

You were the young officer in charge of retreating. I remember you.

0:17:580:18:01

You had them boots made with the heels in the front.

0:18:010:18:04

I remember it well.

0:18:040:18:06

I've got to tell you about Africa and this campaign I was in.

0:18:060:18:10

It was terrifically exciting.

0:18:100:18:12

Me and my young friend, we were really happy.

0:18:120:18:14

We were in the infantry, you see.

0:18:140:18:16

And we were having a nice time and, suddenly, a young officer came in

0:18:160:18:20

and he said, "General Gordon wants to be relieved," he said.

0:18:200:18:24

Well, I thought that sounded a bit of fun, you know.

0:18:240:18:28

Anyway, he said, "You will have to join the Camel Corps

0:18:290:18:32

"and you must have a medical examination."

0:18:320:18:34

So, my friend went in to have his medical examination

0:18:340:18:37

and he came out all smiles. I said, "What you smiling for?"

0:18:370:18:41

He said, "I haven't got to go in the Camel Corps." I said, "Why not?"

0:18:410:18:44

He said, "You know I have to wear this truss. I don't have to go in."

0:18:440:18:48

So, I said, "Well, could you lend it to me for a few minutes?"

0:18:480:18:52

So, he said, "Of course."

0:18:520:18:54

So I went and hid behind a Sergeant Major and put it on

0:18:540:18:57

and then I went in and the doctor gave me a thorough examination

0:18:570:19:00

and he said, "Well, I'm afraid

0:19:000:19:02

"you'll have to go in the Camel Corps."

0:19:020:19:04

I said, "Why? What's the matter?"

0:19:040:19:06

And he said, How long have you been wearing that?"

0:19:060:19:09

I said, "Three years, sir."

0:19:090:19:10

He said, "You're definitely going in the Camel Corps.

0:19:100:19:13

"Anyone that can wear a truss upside down for three years

0:19:130:19:15

"can ride a camel."

0:19:150:19:17

LAUGHTER AND APPLAUSE

0:19:170:19:20

An officer said, "Come along now, Jones!

0:19:240:19:26

"Come along now! Get moving! Sound the advance!" I went...

0:19:260:19:29

HE BLOWS THE BUGLE

0:19:290:19:32

You've got it. It was a bloody difficult war to get started.

0:19:320:19:35

Anyway, eventually, we all marched off in columns.

0:19:350:19:38

We marched off into the African daytime.

0:19:380:19:40

The dust was flying, and the army officer said,

0:19:400:19:44

"Jonesy! Jonesy! Sound the get-down!"

0:19:440:19:48

I'd never sounded a get-down, so I went...

0:19:480:19:50

HE BLOWS THE BUGLE

0:19:500:19:51

And the officer said, "I know what we'll do."

0:19:510:19:54

He was a very excitable man.

0:19:540:19:55

He said, "One platoon, platoon on the right,

0:19:550:19:58

"fix bayonets and charge to the right.

0:19:580:20:00

"Platoon on the left, fix bayonets, charge to the left.

0:20:000:20:02

"Platoon in the middle, fix bayonets and charge down the centre.

0:20:020:20:05

"Ready, run!" And off they went, woo-woo,

0:20:050:20:07

and you couldn't see their bottoms for dust and small stones.

0:20:070:20:10

Away they went, way, way, whoa, whoa.

0:20:100:20:12

And he came to me, he crawled to me with a crooked smile on his face,

0:20:120:20:16

and he said, "Jonesy, do you remember

0:20:160:20:19

"when we were in the Crimea?" I said, "Yes."

0:20:190:20:21

He said, "Do you remember when I got the platoon to fix bayonets

0:20:210:20:23

"and charge to the east and another platoon to fix bayonets

0:20:230:20:26

"and charge to the west and another platoon up the middle

0:20:260:20:28

"and they all got killed?" I said, "Yes, sir."

0:20:280:20:30

He said, "I think I've done it again."

0:20:300:20:32

LAUGHTER

0:20:320:20:35

And then...

0:20:390:20:40

APPLAUSE CONTINUES

0:20:400:20:43

And then, suddenly, something terrible happened.

0:20:440:20:47

The tribe out on the right, they started to shout their cry.

0:20:470:20:50

Ya bum! Ya bum! Ya bum!

0:20:500:20:53

No, no, they didn't. What did they say?

0:20:540:20:56

No, that lot, they shouted, "Ya ba!" That's right, ya ba.

0:20:560:20:59

It was a different tribe, you see. Ya ba! Ya ba!

0:20:590:21:02

Listen, I can't do all this on my own.

0:21:020:21:04

Would you mind being that tribe all from down the middle?

0:21:040:21:07

When I hold my arm up, would you shout "Ya ba" for me, like that?

0:21:070:21:10

-Ya ba! HALF THE AUDIENCE:

-Ya ba! Ya ba! Ya ba!

0:21:100:21:14

That's very, very good. Can you just remember those two words?

0:21:140:21:17

Now, the tribe on the west, I'm listening there with my earhole

0:21:170:21:20

and I heard them shouting, "Ya bum! Ya bum!"

0:21:200:21:23

LAUGHTER

0:21:230:21:25

If there are any clergyman, you can say, "Ya boom". Will you do that?

0:21:250:21:30

-Right, ya bum! AUDIENCE:

-Ya bum! Ya bum!

0:21:300:21:32

TOGETHER: Ya bum! Ya boom! Ya bum! Ya boom!

0:21:320:21:35

See, that's the way it was.

0:21:350:21:36

Then, all this time, there was a big tribe of hyenas,

0:21:360:21:39

laughing their heads off.

0:21:390:21:41

Do you mind being the tribe...?

0:21:420:21:44

LAUGHTER

0:21:440:21:46

They were going like this... Ha-ha-ha-ha!

0:21:460:21:49

Would you do that for me?

-Champagne Charlie?

0:30:320:30:35

No, we can't be topical on this show.

0:30:350:30:38

No, as a matter of fact,

0:30:380:30:40

the record for opening and drinking a bottle of champagne

0:30:400:30:45

by one person is 25 seconds.

0:30:450:30:48

And they're still trying to get him down from up there.

0:30:480:30:51

Let's try. 25 seconds. Are you counting, Sunbeam? OK.

Look who's wearing gloves. LAUGHTER

0:31:390:31:42

No wonder he sent me out to look for the orchestra just before the show!

0:31:420:31:46

No, I'm celebrating, ladies and gentlemen. Can you imagine?

0:31:460:31:51

Here I am, in my hometown... celebrating.

0:31:510:31:55

I have at last met Barney Colehan.

0:31:550:31:58

LAUGHTER

0:31:580:32:00

This is now my 73rd show here,

0:32:000:32:02

APPLAUSE

0:32:080:32:11

Just a moment.

0:32:110:32:13

No, no, I'm really celebrating because I've met Mr Colehan.

0:32:130:32:17

At last! I got this missive.

0:32:170:32:19

It said, "You will come and meet me

0:32:190:32:21

"to discuss what you are going to give to my clients," he said.

0:32:210:32:25

So, that's it. At a local alehouse, we turned up there.

0:32:250:32:30

I had to be there at two o'clock, so I was there at quarter to two.

0:32:300:32:33

I thought, "I'll be there in good time." I was walking up and down...

0:32:330:32:36

Pa-pa-pa-pa. ..wondering what he's going to be like, you know.

0:32:360:32:39

I bet he'll be a big fellow

0:32:390:32:41

with one earring...

0:32:410:32:44

..and a tiara, and I won't be able to say anything about it.

0:32:460:32:50

He'll be a big fellow. And then I suddenly started to get worried.

0:32:500:32:53

You know how you get worried about your appearance?

0:32:530:32:55

You think, "Well, I've got time, I'll just go and check."

0:32:550:32:59

So, I thought, "I'll just nip into the men's room and check."

0:32:590:33:02

And that's where I made my mistake.

0:33:020:33:04

Have you got any mistake music here?

LAUGHTER

0:35:180:35:20

It's these funny jackets with the big flaps. I'm terribly sorry.

0:35:240:35:28

The big flap. It was an accident. Is that all right with you?

0:35:280:35:32

Ooh!

-# I'd sit along Nelly

-He sits there

0:41:090:41:13

-# She'd sit along Joe

-She would sit along Joe

0:41:130:41:17

# She'd got a little hole in her frock

0:41:170:41:21

# A hole in her shoe

0:41:210:41:23

# A hole in her sock where her toe peeped through

0:41:230:41:27

# But Nelly was the smartest in our alley

0:41:270:41:34

# On Mother Kelly's doorstep

0:41:340:41:38

-# I'm wondering now

-On Mother Kelly's doorstep

0:41:380:41:43

-# If little girl Nelly

-If little girl Nelly

0:41:430:41:47

-# Remembers Joe, her beau

-Remembers Joe

0:41:470:41:51

# And does she love me

0:41:510:41:55

# Like she used to

0:41:550:41:59

# On Mother Kelly's doorstep

0:41:590:42:03

# Down Paradise Row? #

0:42:030:42:07

# Give me a million beautiful girls

0:42:090:42:12

# To love, simply love all the time

0:42:120:42:16

# If they're small, if they're tall

0:42:160:42:19

# Anything in dresses and I'll fall for them all

0:42:190:42:23

# Give me a million kisses and hugs

0:42:230:42:26

# For loving is no crime

0:42:260:42:29

# I'd like to love every girlie and then

0:42:290:42:33

# Go back to the first and start all over again

0:42:330:42:37

# Give me a million beautiful girls

0:42:370:42:40

# But give me them one at a time

0:42:400:42:44

# Give me a million beautiful girls

0:42:440:42:48

# To love, simply love all the time

0:42:480:42:51

# If they're tall, if they're small

0:42:510:42:55

# Anything in dresses and I fall for them all

0:42:550:42:58

# Give me a million kisses and hugs

0:42:580:43:01

# For loving is no crime

0:43:010:43:05

# Girls who are bashful but willing to learn

0:43:050:43:08

# Leave me your address and then wait your turn

0:43:080:43:12

# Give me a million beautiful girls

0:43:120:43:16

# But give me them one at a time

0:43:160:43:19

# Give me them, give me them

0:43:190:43:21

# Give me them one at a time. #

0:43:210:43:26

APPLAUSE

0:43:260:43:29

Now, for everything that happens, there's a reason

0:43:400:43:43

No matter if it's large or if it's small

0:43:430:43:47

Now, why was poor old mother Adam teasing poor old father Adam

0:43:470:43:51

In the autumn when she knew the leaves would fall?

0:43:510:43:55

It's woman who has caused the trouble since the world began

0:43:560:44:01

And you can bet your life that when you see a ruined man...

0:44:010:44:07

# There's a woman, there's a woman

0:44:090:44:13

# There's a woman at the bottom of it all... #

0:44:130:44:17

Now, you will find many times through history

0:44:170:44:21

A girl has made a fellow look at things he shouldn't see

0:44:210:44:25

For a woman, for a woman

0:44:250:44:28

Every day some fellow seems to fall

0:44:280:44:32

Now, many years ago, before the days of you and I

0:44:320:44:36

Somebody asked Nelson how he came to lose his eye

0:44:360:44:40

Well, he ran his famous signal up and this was his reply

0:44:400:44:43

"If England expects every man to do his duty and not ask why

0:44:430:44:47

"There's a woman at the bottom of it all"

0:44:470:44:50

Now everybody's heard of Jonah What a silly tale

0:44:500:44:54

It seems that he fell overboard whilst in a heavy gale

0:44:540:44:58

But when a fellow leaves his home to live inside a whale...

0:44:580:45:03

HE LAUGHS

0:45:030:45:07

# There's a woman at the bottom of it all... #

0:45:070:45:13

There's a woman at the bottom of it all.

0:45:150:45:18

APPLAUSE

0:45:230:45:26

# I never worry if a girl is bashful

0:45:340:45:39

# Or if a girl is shy

0:45:390:45:44

# I never worry if she has that look

0:45:450:45:49

# Of "Don't you dare kiss me" in her eye

0:45:490:45:55

# I never worry if I want some loving

0:45:550:46:01

# I know just what to try

0:46:010:46:06

# You may wonder what I do

0:46:060:46:11

# There's nothing strange about it

0:46:110:46:14

# Here is all I ask of you

0:46:140:46:19

# Give me the moonlight

0:46:190:46:23

# Give me the girl

0:46:230:46:25

# And leave the rest to me

0:46:250:46:30

# Give me a babbling brook

0:46:300:46:32

# Give me a shady nook

0:46:320:46:35

# Where no-one can see

0:46:350:46:40

# Give me a bench for two

0:46:400:46:42

# Where we can bill and coo

0:46:420:46:45

# And mine she's bound to be

0:46:450:46:50

# If there's anyone in doubt

0:46:500:46:52

# And they'd like to try me out

0:46:520:46:55

# Give me the moonlight

0:46:550:46:57

# Give me the girl

0:46:570:46:59

# And leave the rest to me

0:46:590:47:04

# Give me the moonlight

0:47:040:47:07

# Give me the girl

0:47:070:47:10

# And leave the rest to me

0:47:100:47:14

# Give me a babbling brook

0:47:140:47:17

# Give me a shady nook

0:47:170:47:19

# Where no-one can see

0:47:190:47:24

# Give me a bench for two

0:47:240:47:26

# Where we can bill and coo

0:47:260:47:29

# And mine she's bound to be

0:47:290:47:34

# If there's anyone in doubt

0:47:340:47:36

# And they'd like to try me out

0:47:360:47:38

# Give me the moonlight

0:47:380:47:41

# Give me the girl

0:47:410:47:43

# And leave the rest to me

0:47:430:47:47

# And leave the rest

0:47:470:47:52

# To me. #

0:47:520:47:57

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

0:47:570:48:01

And now there's just time to ask Mr Roy Castle

0:48:140:48:17

to lead the company and yourselves

0:48:170:48:19

in the last chorus for tonight, Down At The Old Bull And Bush.

0:48:270:48:32

But this time, give me yourselves!

0:48:350:48:41

# Come, come, come and make eyes at me

0:48:440:48:47

# Down at The Old Bull And Bush La-la-la-la-la

0:48:470:48:51

# Come, come, drink some port wine with me

0:48:510:48:54

# Down at The Old Bull And Bush

0:48:540:48:57

# Hear the little German band La-la-la-la-la-la-la

0:48:580:49:01

# Just let me hold your hand, dear

0:49:010:49:04

# Do, do, come and have a drink or two

0:49:040:49:08
