Welcome back to Mr John Bouchier! | 0:09:01 | 0:09:05 | |
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE | 0:09:05 | 0:09:08 | |
Well, thank you very much indeed for that very nice introduction. | 0:09:12 | 0:09:16 | |
'Nice introduction, you didn't understand a word of it!' | 0:09:16 | 0:09:19 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:09:19 | 0:09:20 | |
As a matter of fact I did. 'Well, I didn't.' | 0:09:20 | 0:09:23 | |
That's because you're not very well-educated, | 0:09:23 | 0:09:25 | |
and without a good education, you'll never be able to work. | 0:09:25 | 0:09:28 | |
'I was working all last summer. | 0:09:28 | 0:09:29 | |
'I was a lifeguard on the beach all summer, saving the girls.' | 0:09:29 | 0:09:33 | |
Saving the girls. What for? | 0:09:33 | 0:09:35 | |
'The winter. | 0:09:35 | 0:09:36 | |
'What's that thing there?' | 0:09:37 | 0:09:39 | |
That's got nothing whatever to do with you but as you've mentioned it, | 0:09:39 | 0:09:42 | |
I'd like to show the ladies and gentleman, | 0:09:42 | 0:09:44 | |
so I'd like you to sit down and be a good boy, sit over here. | 0:09:44 | 0:09:46 | |
That's the idea, just sit there like that, all right? | 0:09:46 | 0:09:50 | |
And I'll show the ladies and gentleman. | 0:09:50 | 0:09:52 | |
In fact, you can turn you head round like that. | 0:09:52 | 0:09:54 | |
A little girl came up to me. She said, "Would you do me a favour?" | 0:09:58 | 0:10:01 | |
I said, "Certainly." She said, "Could you mend my dolly for me?" | 0:10:01 | 0:10:04 | |
I said, "Yes, if you've got the part." | 0:10:04 | 0:10:06 | |
So she gave me the body, I said, "Is there any more to it?" | 0:10:06 | 0:10:08 | |
She said, "No." I thought, "Well, it needs a head." | 0:10:08 | 0:10:11 | |
So I got a sort of tennis ball and cut it in half, painted it up | 0:10:11 | 0:10:13 | |
so it looked like a face, | 0:10:13 | 0:10:15 | |
and placed it on the back of my hand like this with a piece of elastic. | 0:10:15 | 0:10:19 | |
-HE COUGHS -Excuse me. | 0:10:19 | 0:10:21 | |
Throat needs clearing. | 0:10:21 | 0:10:23 | |
'Needs cutting.' | 0:10:23 | 0:10:24 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:10:24 | 0:10:26 | |
That wasn't very polite. | 0:10:30 | 0:10:32 | |
'No, but it was sincere.' | 0:10:32 | 0:10:34 | |
I said, "How's that?" She said, "That's fine. | 0:10:34 | 0:10:37 | |
"There's only one thing wrong with it - there are no lips on it." | 0:10:37 | 0:10:39 | |
So I borrowed a stick of lipstick and I painted some lips on it | 0:10:39 | 0:10:42 | |
rather like this. | 0:10:42 | 0:10:43 | |
-'It's your own lipstick.' -LAUGHTER | 0:10:43 | 0:10:45 | |
I said, "What do you call this little fella?" | 0:10:47 | 0:10:49 | |
She said, "Andy". So that's what we're going to call him. | 0:10:49 | 0:10:51 | |
There he is, there's Andy. | 0:10:51 | 0:10:53 | |
APPLAUSE | 0:10:55 | 0:10:57 | |
Hello, Andy. 'Hello.' | 0:11:01 | 0:11:03 | |
How are you? 'Very well, thank you.' | 0:11:03 | 0:11:06 | |
I'm very pleased to hear that. Do you go to school? | 0:11:06 | 0:11:08 | |
'I go to two schools.' | 0:11:08 | 0:11:10 | |
Oh, two schools. 'Weekday school and Sunday school.' | 0:11:10 | 0:11:13 | |
Oh. Which school do you like best? 'Sunday school.' | 0:11:13 | 0:11:17 | |
Why is that? 'I only go once a week.' Oh. | 0:11:17 | 0:11:22 | |
APPLAUSE | 0:11:22 | 0:11:24 | |
Can you sing? | 0:11:24 | 0:11:26 | |
'I can do the scales.' All right, do the scales for me. | 0:11:26 | 0:11:28 | |
'Do, re, me, fa... | 0:11:28 | 0:11:31 | |
-'sol, la, si, do!' -VOICE BREAKS | 0:11:31 | 0:11:34 | |
Well, it's not bad but you must learn to hold your note. | 0:11:34 | 0:11:37 | |
Could you hold a note? 'Certainly.' How long for? | 0:11:37 | 0:11:39 | |
'As long as you can.' As long as I can(!) | 0:11:39 | 0:11:42 | |
Well, I'll tell you what we'll do, | 0:11:42 | 0:11:43 | |
we'll have a little practice, a little rehearsal. | 0:11:43 | 0:11:46 | |
-See if you can hold a note for everybody here. -'Now?' | 0:11:46 | 0:11:48 | |
Yes, now. 'OK.' | 0:11:48 | 0:11:49 | |
HE HOLDS A HIGH NOTE | 0:11:49 | 0:11:51 | |
'OK.' That's fine. | 0:12:07 | 0:12:09 | |
Well, that's lovely. Now, for being such a good little boy, | 0:12:18 | 0:12:21 | |
would you like a little piece of chocolate? | 0:12:21 | 0:12:23 | |
'I'd like a big piece of chocolate. | 0:12:23 | 0:12:25 | |
'Greedy guts.' | 0:12:25 | 0:12:27 | |
You can't have a lot of chocolate because you'll be ill, | 0:12:27 | 0:12:29 | |
but here's a little piece of chocolate | 0:12:29 | 0:12:31 | |
and when it's gone, will you let me know because its past your bedtime? | 0:12:31 | 0:12:34 | |
There we are. That's the idea. Don't bite my finger, that's it. | 0:12:34 | 0:12:38 | |
Has it gone yet? 'Not yet.' | 0:12:41 | 0:12:43 | |
Hurry up and take your time. | 0:12:43 | 0:12:45 | |
School tomorrow. | 0:12:48 | 0:12:50 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:12:50 | 0:12:52 | |
You'll get no pocket money. | 0:12:55 | 0:12:58 | |
Now? 'Yes, thank you.' Show me your tongue. | 0:12:58 | 0:13:00 | |
Oh, yes, so it has, thank you. | 0:13:00 | 0:13:02 | |
DA-DA! | 0:13:02 | 0:13:04 | |
Ah, this is lovely, this is my Aunt Ada, say hello. 'Hello, dears.' | 0:13:10 | 0:13:14 | |
That's right. | 0:13:14 | 0:13:16 | |
'It is nice to see so many gentlemen in uniform.' | 0:13:16 | 0:13:19 | |
Yes, it is nice, isn't it? | 0:13:19 | 0:13:21 | |
'Oh, he's rather gorgeous, isn't he?' | 0:13:21 | 0:13:24 | |
Do you mean the chairman? | 0:13:27 | 0:13:29 | |
'Yes, dear.' Oh, you like him, do you? Leonard Sachs. | 0:13:29 | 0:13:32 | |
'Does he, dear?' | 0:13:32 | 0:13:33 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:13:33 | 0:13:34 | |
No, that's his name. | 0:13:36 | 0:13:37 | |
I expect you're thinking about your summer holidays, aren't you? | 0:13:37 | 0:13:40 | |
'Yes, dear.' Where did you go last year? | 0:13:40 | 0:13:43 | |
'I went on a world cruise last year.' | 0:13:43 | 0:13:46 | |
Did you? 'Yes. I think I'll go somewhere else this year.' | 0:13:46 | 0:13:49 | |
And when you were on your world cruise, did you visit Greece? | 0:13:51 | 0:13:54 | |
'Oh, yes, dear.' | 0:13:54 | 0:13:56 | |
And when you were in Greece, did you have the shish kebabs? | 0:13:56 | 0:13:59 | |
All the time I was there. | 0:13:59 | 0:14:01 | |
'Well, I... | 0:14:07 | 0:14:09 | |
'I can't sit here all night, | 0:14:09 | 0:14:11 | |
'I'm going up to the Circle Bar for a little drink.' Are you? 'Yes'. | 0:14:11 | 0:14:15 | |
You won't drink too much whilst you're up there, will you? | 0:14:15 | 0:14:17 | |
'No, dear, I always know when I've had enough.' How's that? | 0:14:17 | 0:14:20 | |
'I fall flat on my face.' | 0:14:20 | 0:14:23 | |
Well, now, listen, I think | 0:14:23 | 0:14:24 | |
I'd better accompany you to the bar, so will you say good night, auntie? | 0:14:24 | 0:14:27 | |
'Good night, Auntie.' | 0:14:27 | 0:14:28 | |
Good night, ladies and gentlemen, thank you very much. | 0:14:28 | 0:14:31 | |

# Lady Godiva on a snow white mare once rode through Coventry | 0:16:56 | 0:17:02 | |
# And all she was wearing was her lovely hair | 0:17:02 | 0:17:05 | |
# Oh, it reached down to her knees | 0:17:05 | 0:17:08 | |

# Shall I have it shingled shorter? | 0:18:06 | 0:18:08 | |
# Said Susie as she sighed and sobbed | 0:18:08 | 0:18:09 | |
# Sister Cissie says she'd sooner see it short and shingled | 0:18:09 | 0:18:12 | |

Now I would like to attempt, for | 0:21:23 | 0:21:25 | |
the first time in Great Britain, an extraordinary feat with my feet. | 0:21:25 | 0:21:29 | |
I would like to try and juggle this piano here, | 0:21:31 | 0:21:34 | |
a genuine Stradivarius. | 0:21:34 | 0:21:36 | |

In England, it is not Mr Tom? In England? | 0:22:35 | 0:22:39 | |

It's too bad, it's terrible because tonight you must work. | 0:23:02 | 0:23:06 | |

She said, "Oh, I thought you'd emigrated." | 0:36:25 | 0:36:27 | |
What is a laugh? What is a laugh? | 0:36:27 | 0:36:29 | |
A laugh is a noise that comes out of a hole in your face. | 0:36:29 | 0:36:33 | |
Ha-ha! Anywhere else and you are in trouble. | 0:36:33 | 0:36:35 | |

We're British, no matter where we're from - British and proud of it, | 0:38:25 | 0:38:28 | |
-aren't we? ALL: -Yes! | 0:38:28 | 0:38:29 | |
Folks, I stand here tonight full of the bulldog spirit | 0:38:29 | 0:38:32 | |
and with teeth to match. I tell you... | 0:38:32 | 0:38:34 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:38:34 | 0:38:36 | |
It's the food, sir, it's the food. It stands to reason, the food. | 0:38:36 | 0:38:40 | |
We English, we eat sensible food like pigs' trotters, | 0:38:40 | 0:38:42 | |
tripe and chitterlings. | 0:38:42 | 0:38:44 | |
The Germans, they've all got square heads, | 0:38:45 | 0:38:48 | |
too much Oxo, that's what it is. | 0:38:48 | 0:38:49 | |
And the French, the French, no wonder the French are always | 0:38:51 | 0:38:53 | |
romantic, have you seen those long loaves they're always eating? | 0:38:53 | 0:38:57 | |
It's true. | 0:38:57 | 0:38:59 | |
And you wouldn't fancy one of those Spanish fellas, these hot-blooded... | 0:39:01 | 0:39:05 | |
These picadors, toreadors, | 0:39:05 | 0:39:07 | |
in the front a-door, out the back a-door. | 0:39:07 | 0:39:09 | |
Scandinavians, big hairy great Danes with horns growing | 0:39:11 | 0:39:14 | |
out of their hats, bacon sandwiches strapped to their legs. | 0:39:14 | 0:39:18 | |
Roaming all round Yorkshire, offering housewives free rashers. | 0:39:21 | 0:39:25 | |
No, I've no idea what day he's round at. | 0:39:27 | 0:39:29 | |
My sister, she was engaged to an Eskimo, she broke it off. | 0:39:33 | 0:39:36 | |
And then of course... | 0:39:36 | 0:39:38 | |
You wouldn't fancy one of those handsome Italians with | 0:39:44 | 0:39:46 | |
the black wavy hair, would you, girls? | 0:39:46 | 0:39:49 | |
ITALIAN ACCENT: Gradi-cheri-veri-geri. | 0:39:49 | 0:39:51 | |
Gradi-geri-veri, tickle your Auntie Mary... | 0:39:51 | 0:39:54 | |
Cheri-veri. | 0:39:54 | 0:39:55 | |
They creep up behind you when you're doing the sprouts. | 0:39:55 | 0:39:58 | |
"Pffrt!" | 0:39:58 | 0:39:59 | |
In Germany, all the men are herrs, very confusing. | 0:39:59 | 0:40:03 | |
It is. | 0:40:04 | 0:40:06 | |
The German housewives starch their husband's underpants. | 0:40:06 | 0:40:09 | |
That is why they all walk around... | 0:40:09 | 0:40:11 | |
In Russia, in Russia, everything ends in "off" so you've no chance. | 0:40:12 | 0:40:17 | |
Ladies and gentlemen, since we've got | 0:40:25 | 0:40:27 | |
so many beautiful ladies in here this evening, | 0:40:27 | 0:40:29 | |
I'd like to tell you about my romantic exploits where I go | 0:40:29 | 0:40:32 | |
doing all my courting, | 0:40:32 | 0:40:33 | |
down in the fields where the buttercups all grow. | 0:40:33 | 0:40:36 | |
# Now, Mary Green loves me and I love her true | 0:40:39 | 0:40:43 | |
# We blush when we meet like all true-lovers do | 0:40:43 | 0:40:47 | |
# Behind the plantation where green meadows run | 0:40:47 | 0:40:51 | |
# We spoon in the dark and we have lots of fun | 0:40:51 | 0:40:56 | |
# Down in the fields where the buttercups all grow | 0:40:56 | 0:41:00 | |
# My sweetheart said I was too bashful and slow | 0:41:00 | 0:41:04 | |
# But she changed her mind when I let meself go | 0:41:04 | 0:41:08 | |
# Down in the field where the buttercups all grow | 0:41:08 | 0:41:12 | |
# The songsters were greeting the day newly born | 0:41:16 | 0:41:21 | |
# The sheep in the meadow the cows in the corn | 0:41:21 | 0:41:25 | |
# And when sheep and cows have been round there a bit | 0:41:25 | 0:41:29 | |
# It's not a nice place for a lady to sit... # | 0:41:29 | 0:41:32 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:41:32 | 0:41:34 | |
# Down in the fields where the buttercups all grow | 0:41:34 | 0:41:39 | |
# A cow licking Mary's face tickled her so | 0:41:39 | 0:41:42 | |
# She thought it was me and said | 0:41:42 | 0:41:45 | |
# "Don't slobber, Joe" | 0:41:45 | 0:41:47 | |
# Down in the fields where the buttercups all grow | 0:41:47 | 0:41:51 | |
-AUDIENCE: -# Down in the fields where the buttercups all grow | 0:41:51 | 0:41:55 | |
# A ten-gallon barrel on top of the hill | 0:41:55 | 0:41:59 | |
# Came crashing towards us My heart, it stood still | 0:41:59 | 0:42:03 | |
# But Mary stood bravely Unflinching and true | 0:42:03 | 0:42:08 | |
# Her legs were so bandy the barrel rolled through | 0:42:08 | 0:42:13 | |
# Down in the fields where the buttercups all grow | 0:42:13 | 0:42:18 | |
# Our courtship was swift and our honeymoon slow | 0:42:18 | 0:42:22 | |
# The bed was too small so we both had to go | 0:42:22 | 0:42:26 | |
# Down in the fields where the buttercups all grow. # | 0:42:26 | 0:42:29 | |
Altogether! | 0:42:29 | 0:42:32 | |
# Down in the fields where the buttercups all grow. # | 0:42:32 | 0:42:37 | |
