They Need A War
Ricky: White Stripes, “Dead Leaves on the Dirty Ground” on XFM 104.9. I’m Ricky Gervais. With me, Steve Merchant, Karl Pilkington. We have got a great show lined up for you.
Steve: Absolutely.
Ricky: Today it’s just, uh, yeah. Valentine’s Day weekend. Some love songs.
Steve: Ooh.
Ricky: We got some chat and, of course, the competitions. I’ll tell ya what; I was walking here today and the West End is crammed. There’s helicopters, there’s police, there’s about a million people, sort of, just milling ‘round. Standing around with placards and stuff. I don’t know what they’re doing, but they got too much time on their hands. They-they need a war!
Steve: You don’t read the newspapers, do you?
Ricky: Boring.
Song: Guns N’ Roses- Sweet Child ‘o Mine
