R: Retro cut there, Thin Lizzy, Don’t Believe a Word. On Xfm 104.9. I’m Ricky Gervay, with me, Steve Merchant, Bobbity Boo! Who’s that over there? It’s Karly Pilkboids!

S: (laughs), Oh that’s classic.

R: You all right, Karl? How’re ya doing? C’mon – up! Up! Bigabagadoo! Pro-ject! Project! There’s people out there wanting to, you know, cheer up their Saturday afternoons. We’re the boys for it, yeah? We’re like quick-quick fitters.

S: All right, Karl?

R and S: Come onnn!

K: I’m all right! I’m up for it!

S: That’s it, this is the height of excitement?!

R: This is it is it? This is you off your head, is it? High on life.

S: (laughs)

R: Christ. What did Suzanne say about you saying about her big ass?

K: Aw. She, she heard about it.

R: Go on.

S: Should we recap what happened last week?

R: Well, the week before, he uh said that her haircut looked like Dave Hill from Slade, she didn’t like that. … A bit grumpy, he went, ‘Yeah, Don’t mention her fat ass’, still thinking she wouldn’t hear about this. What happened when you went home?

K: She heard about that off a mate, and we sorted it out, and I didn’t have to buy her anything, I just sort of said, ‘Come on, that’s what the show’s about, stop moaning.’ That was all right until about Thursday, when I was reading about, uh, do you know like they say there’s two worlds and that? And whatever I’m doing here, there’s another one of me doing the same?

R: Yeah.

S: Well, he’s probably taking some time off. Probably having a week off.

R: Yeah. Go on.

K: But I was just talkin about that, and she was sayin, ‘Naw, that doesn’t happen.’ And I said, ‘Well, they definitely won’t have a haircut like yours.’ And that sort of started the, the argument again.

R: Yeah, it’s almost like you haven’t learnt your lesson. Also, it’s like you’re talking about it again on air, almost, in a way. So her mates can hear it again. Very short learning curve. You know what? Karl, if there was a, if I cut a hole in a, in a box, and you knew there was an orange in there, right, and you put your hand in, would you be stuck there trying to get that orange out, do you think? Or would you just like, let it go and sort of tip of over to get your hand out?

K: What do you mean?

R: (laughs)

S: I think that answers your question. Is that a cardboard box on your hand, Karl?

R: (laughs)

S: So is there any other things you want to critize Suzanne for, while we’re on air? Anything else? Anything that’s been niggling, that you feel you should get off your chest?

K: Ehhhh….

S: The hair, the arse …

K: Naw, Leave it.

S: Everything else is fine.

R: Leave it. I think so. That’s good. I think leave it. Well done.

S: Now can we just check, what, uh, are the big Karl Features that you’ve got today? Have we got Monkey News?

K: Got Monkey News comin’ up, yeah. Got a bit of, uh, got Rockbusters, and uh, the Film Thing ..

S: Still not got a name.

R: (laughs) Yeah.

K: Just me in a film and that and uh, this week, we’re digging out the old, one I’m in, One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest, brilliant film.

R: Yeah, brilliant film. It was my favorite film until I saw Godfather.

K: Better than that.

R: Well, yeah, some would say that, yeah.

K: No, it is. The storyline is more interesting.

R: I didn’t know there was an actual answer. So-sorry, what’s best?

K: One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest—

R: Is it? OK. All right. Where, where’s Godfather, ‘cause I want to know, so I don’t embarrass myself.

K: Uh –

R: Is it my 4th favourite film, er-

K: Prob’ly about 5th.

R: My 5th favourite film, is it? Brilliant.

S: Talkin’ of lists,

R: I suppose I like Kez and The Elephant Man, do I?

K: Do ya?

R: (laughs)

S: Lists, Rick, I don’t know if you saw in the paper, I think it’s on TV this evening, it’s, uh, as voted for by viewers of VH-1, the music channel, they’ve basically come up with a list of the Greatest Pop Culture Icons, uh, ever. Uh, there’s 100.

R: Where’s Elvis?

S: So Elvis is at number 3.

R: Jimmy Dean in there?

S: James Dean is in there, I think he’s a bit lower. Uh, let me see he’s at number 21-2. Number 22. We’ve got David Beckham at number 1.

R: Ah, well, ok, then so – Robbie Williams is in there, so it’s it’s British bias?

S: Robbie Williams is in there, yeah, he’s just below Abba.

R: OK.

S: But, interestingly, this is of interest to you, I think, number 66 …

R: Yeah?

S: The Office.

R: That’s all right.

S: Well, it is, Rick, it’s nice that the show is in there and that, that’s a very flattering thing. I’ll tell ya what cheapens it, I’ll tell ya what undermines it, the things that are lower in the list than the show.

R: Oh God, so we’ve beaten –

S: Well –

R: Go on –

S: I’ll give ya a little test. Higher or lower, do you think this is higher – nearer the top of the most pop culture icons than ours, OK, I’m gonna give you – Superman.

R: Well. International, been around since the ‘30s, one of the biggest icons on the planet, I’ll say higher.

S: Lower.

R: Yeah?

S: Ludicrous.

R: OK, so ..

S: Do you think higher or lower – Neil Armstrong, the first man on the moon?

R: (laughs)

S: This guy’s been to the moon.

R: Well, I’d say lower then.

S: Lower.

R: Yeah.

S: Yeah, um –

K: Is that – is that sayin the people behind the rocket or just him?

R: (laughs)

K: ‘Cause he just sat there, didn’t do anything.

S: It’s what he’s symbolic of.

R: No – yeah – it’s not just, how much work went into it.

K: All right then.

S: Few others.

R: What about things like Coca-cola?

S: Oh no, they don’t really count. It tends to be, they don’t feature. I mean Mickey Mouse is in there, uh, what do you make, what do you reckon – Tom Cruise, higher or lower, Tom Cruise is the number 1 box office star in the world?

R: Presumably lower, then.

S: He’s lower. Number 81.

R: (laughs)

S: It really is a list drawn up by people who just sat at home and looked along their video and book collection.

R: Yeah.

S: ‘Um …. Office, yeah, that’s good.’

R: Well it is a reflection of that, but it’s always that, you do an HMV poll and it’s Pet Sounds, uh, Revolver, Let’s Get it On, Robbie Williams: Life Through a Lens.

S: (laughs)

R: Because it’s the people who vote, it’s a reflection of the fact there’s massive, you know, what’s big at the moment. I was the Most Powerful Man in Comedy, let’s not forget –

S: Yes.

R: One year ago – wonder where I’ll be this year?

S: See, if that had been the laziest man in comedy –

R: (laughs)

S: You’d have got my vote.

R: (laughs)

S: Interestingly, though, number 26, Karl Pilkington.

R: (laughs) Oh, imagine! Oh –

(music break) 00:06:35 R: ‘All Possibilities”, Badly Drawn Boy, on Xfm 104.9. I’m Ricky Gervais, with me Steve Merchant, and little Karly Pilkoids.

S: (laughs) Rick, um, Suzy’s emailed. She’s wondered if you could give a massive hello to Hannah and Charlotte – they’re all in the sixth form at Codsforth School –

R: Yeah. Yeah, shout out. Yeah, massive. Where’re they from?

S: Uh, I don’t know. I can’t quite pronounce it – the Calpthor School?

R: The Calpthor Massive.

S: Yeah.

R: They’re probably known as. Yeah.

S: So good luck to Suzy, Hannah, and Charlotte.

R: When did we start doin’ dedications?

S: I – I’ve always felt it was something that’s lacking on the show. Interaction with the audience. You know?

R: Interesting only to to the one person whose name is mentioned.

S: (laughs) Yeah – of course – but that’s how proper DJs fill up their time. They don’t talk about monkeys, and, you know, all that kind of, drivel.

R: Ooh. Do you think monkeys are drivel, Karl?

K: Well – we’ll still be doin’ a bit of Monkey News, no matter how much you have a pop at it. It’s comin’ up in a bit. Got some good stuff this week. I, I know it’s been a bit dull, last 2 weeks.

R: Well no, it’s not been dull – it’s been totally untrue.

S: As ever.

R: Bordering on the impossible. I mean, monkey dating. Saying ‘What tree are we meeting in?’ You believe that sort of drivel. So, I mean, oh. Oh, God. Jonathan Ross told a story about a chimpanzee once.

K: Go on.

R: (laughs) But it was about how it escaped from the zoo. And it jumped on a bus. OK. Interesting, funny –

K: I did that one!

R: But possible – there’s possibility in that one being true.

K: But I did that one.

S: I think you said something like he drove the bus, or he was conducting it –

R: I think you said he took it to Spain.

K: (pause) Mm.

R: You see the difference? It’s that little stretch, of credibility, that means it’s all shite.

S: How is Jonathan Ross? All right?

R: (laughs)

S: You see, I wondered how long it would take before his name popped up. How is the old monkey? Looking forward to his birthday Monday?

R: (laughing) Oh – oh dear. Yeah.

S: I don’t know if any of the listeners, uh, saw Ricky on Jonathan Ross’ TV show last night. What, I mean, MAN ALIVE!

R: What?

S: Well I mean, that’s not an interview! How is that an interview?

R: What?

S: It’s not – he wasn’t interviewing you – it was like two pals just havin’ a laugh, and if we – it was like, it was a family do, and you just happened to film it and stick it on the telly.

R: (laughs)

S: My friend made a good point – it was like any minute his kids were gonna pop out, sit on that sofa next to you, and go ‘Ooh, Uncle Ricky! Do the little dance!’ (makes the Office dance music noise) It was unbelievable! I mean, what were you wearin’, for a start!

R: Whaaaat??

S: What’s that? Some tatty old jumper like you’d just been doin’ some artexin’ and he’d gone, ‘Pop ‘round, Rick. We’re havin’ a coupla drinks!’

R: That’s – that was Lambretta! S: Lambretta! Was it inside out? I mean how is it you keep getting things like the St. George cross on it?

R: Na- what do you mean? That’s the only one I’ve got!

S: You’ve got loads of stuff! T-shirts, jumpers, shoes!

R: Naw, I’ve got a Union Jack -

S: Underpants!

R: Um, uh, uh, whatit, a French Connection –

S: But that’s not, that’s not what I’m saying

R: I haven’t got any underpants!

S: That’s not my concern, it’s just the fact – I mean firstly, for those that don’t realize, Ricky is friends with Jonathan Ross. They are friends. Now, they’ve only known each other, what? A year maybe?

R: ‘Bout 2, yeah –

S: It’s less, I think it’s less than 2. Now what worries me is, you’re, the friendship’s too close –

R: What’d’ya mean?

S: Because you’re over 40 - You see, it seems to me that after the age of 25, men, should not be becoming really close friends with other men. You’ve had all your friends – you made them at university, at school, and if you’re in a walk of life and you met someone at a party or a pub, even if you got on, you would not be phoning them every other day, like going to an awards do – ‘What’re you wearing, Jonathan?’ I’ve heard this conversation – ‘What’re you wearin’? Is that too formal?’

R: That’s not true!

S: It is! You’re always on the phone to him! You’re always chattin’, ‘I’m just gonna pop round,’ “Oh, I’m just gonna play some tennis!”

R: Yeah! We play tennis!

S: Always hangin’ out with the guy .. and it’s, to me, it’s unhealthy, and this, it’s just bled open now, onto TV.

R: Oh – hold on, wait a minute, wait a minute –

S: Woah woah – So, you’re there, it’s like – I’ll tell you what it reminded me of – Des O’Conner and Jethro,

R: (laughs)

S: Comin’ on, to plug his live video

R: (laughs) Or Tarby (?) and Kenny Lynche –

S: And at the end of the interview, after they’d been, you know, mutually back-slappin’

R: Yep –

S: HE GAVE YOU A PET!

R: (laughs)

S: Jonathan Ross, gave you, a cat! As a replacement for your cat which died! Now to me, that’s an inappropriate gift!

R: Why? It’s a lovely gift!

S: That’s – You should be – I don’t think people should be giving PETS, as gifts – imagine –

R: Do you know what I got him –

S: Imagine at a wedding: ‘I just bought you a cat”

R: Do you know what I’ve got him, for his birthday? I’ve got him a child.

S: Well! You may as well! Because that’s what it’s like, a cat, to me!

R: I’ve got a small Rwandan child.

S: A cat, to me, it’s like I’ve bought you this small child. I was gonna sponsor him, but I’ve got this bit of cash, I’ve flown him over.

R: (laughs) It was a lovely gift!

S: It’s too, it’s too intimate – it’s like, it’s too much responsibility!

R: D’you know what I think? D’you know what I think, Karl?

K: What?

R: Steve’s a bit jealous.

S: I tell ya – I’ve got good reason to be jealous.

R: What? S: I’ve got good reason to be jealous.

R: Yeah.

S: I just remembered this – your birthday – Jonathan Ross was there,

S: Karl Pilkington was there,

R: Yeah.

S: I don’t remember being invited.

R: (laughs)

S: I don’t remember being invited – was I there, Karl? You were there – I don’t remember being there.

K: Well, you’re with him all day, and that –

S: Right. OK, well, he sees you a lot, I mean, Jonathan is round his house every other day, playin’ tennis, and who else knows what, swimmin’ together, and sat in his jacuzzi,

R: (laughs)

S: Cracking wise, what happened there? What happened there?

R: (laughs) I think we got to the bottom of it. Play a record.

K: The villa that we went to afterwards –

S: Yeah?

K: Could only take six –

S: Yeah, it better be!

R: (laughs)

S: How is the cat? All right?

R: Yeah –

S: What’s he named? Jonathan?

R: Ollie.

(music break) 00:12:19 R: ‘Hey-ya’, Outkast, Xfm, 104.9, Ricky Gervais, Steve Merchant, Karl Pilkington. It’s that time, innit? Rockbusters –

S: ‘ray!

R: Come on – Karl – what you got for us?

K: All right, you wanna say what the prizes are –

S: I’ll say what the prizes are first. There’s a two disc set – Rock ‘n Roll Legends, on the cover there, they’ve got Buddy Holly, Elvis, Roy Orbison, and Little Richard.

R: No one wants that, baby.

S: (laughs) Nobody’s interested! Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds, a DVD – I’m a Nick Cave fan, and I wouldn’t watch it.

R: Yeah, you’d watch it once, at most, when there was nothing on –

S: Yeah, at best – Knowing Me, Knowing You –

R: Nick Cave’s good, but when do you watch rock DVDs?

S: Yeah. Knowing Me, Knowing You – great series, obviously, but it’s –

R: VHS!

S: VHS, no one wants it on VHS. (13:00)




From 26.00

Ricky: 'Oi, me lover, want a bit of carp'

Steve: What angered me Rick was er, was the fact that i wasn't notified, that there was not, i didn't know that there was

Ricky: There was no sign

Steve: And afterwards i spoke to other people about it and they said, 'Oh it's a famous gay haunt', but what annoys me is i feel that they should put an ad in the local press, a big paper like once a week, like you know when they recall cars if their damaged or there's a fault, or Curry's might bring back stuff if there's faulty goods, they say 'recall them, we'll give your money back'

Ricky: What do you suggest

Steve: they should put an ad in, the gay community should put an advert in that says 'These are the hotspots, this is where you're likely to find us doing some stuff, if your not gay and you might feel uncomfortable, avoid them' and just list them, or little pictures, or a just a map, anything, cos like the gay tube thing, i don't know

Ricky: Cock fun! 123 Railway cuttings

Steve: Ha, well not that, it's more of a kind of, more of a sort of social awareness thing

Ricky: Yeah

Steve: So people would, you know, don't feel uncomfortable and

Ricky: But they don't want it exactly to be like, sort of walking under neon signs

Steve: But why, it's it's legal

Ricky: Yeah hehe, big arrows, abbuhh as if!

Steve: What do you mean? What's wrong with that?

Ricky: Because, well it's actually a public place, i don't think it, i don't think cottaging is strictly legal

Steve: Well i don't know they ins and outs of it, i wasn't saying they had to specify what they were going to do

Ricky: But some people, some people, not, some of them arn't, i don't think it's peobably seen gays is it

Steve: But they advertise G.A.Y

Ricky: Yeah, but it's not, yeah but it's not the people that go out and they say i'm gay, and i like Barbra Streisand, it's, presumably the sort of people who do that, are people that arn't quite out yet or, do you know what i mean? Or, they're doing a quick one on the way to their wives and kids.

Steve: Yeah

Ricky: I don't know, I don't know the, completely how it works, but i'm sure there probably isn't a place where umerm 'Free bumming! Here tonight'

Karl: No, but there is kind of

Ricky: What

Karl: Because i was walking home one night through Soho, right? erm, just cos that's the way i have to go, not cos i cheat, d'you know what i mean, i wasn't going to there for a, and that right?

Ricky: Haha, so nervous isn't he

Karl: So i'm walking through and erm, i was handed like a card which was like a gay event

Ricky: Yeah

Karl: Right? Now that's a bit weird innit, that straight away he's presuming that because i'm there, that time of night

Ricky: Well, and you've got a shaved head, and you sorta look like, you know, you're sort of like quite, look after yourself, and you got some nice clothes

Karl: Yeah, but still, can't presume

Ricky: Look like a bit of rough from Manchester, you look like a northern rent boy who comes down to stand outside McDonalds

Karl: But the card was rubbish right

Ricky: What d'you mean

Karl: Had this fella on it, right, all sort of greased up and that

Ricky: Why'd you look?

Karl: Just havin' a look what he's handed me and that

Ricky: Right

Karl: Just havin' a look. Err, picture of him, sort of sailors hat on, tanned body, like, just his arse out like that

Ricky: Sniggering

Karl: And err, rubbish slogan right. "The best bum, in W1"

Ricky + Steve: Hahahaha

Ricky: Is bum there a noun, or like a verb

Karl: What'd'ya mean?

Ricky: Wel'er 'to bum', is it like, 'Get the best bum, you've ever had' or he had the best bum

Karl: I think it's just like

Steve: I don't suppose you asked

Karl: No

Ricky: Agheheh

Steve: I don't suppose he called the number to check

Ricky: Hahahaha

Steve: "What do you mean exactly by this, does it mean you've got a great arse?"

Ricky: "Does it mean i'll be well bummed, or does it mean you've just got a good,"

Karl: Alright alright, come on now

Ricky: What?!

Steve: Can i just make a final point about, cos i asked my friend how it all works up on the Heath, cos i live in Hamstead Heath, so near Hamstead, and i was worried, i didn't want to go walking and get myself involved, get involved in any

Ricky: How can you 'get involved'?

Steve: No, again, i didn't want to walk by

Ricky: Sort of like, like "Ooh you wouldn't belive it, i couldn't say no, oor my wrist it's knackered" "What do you mean" "Well i was there for about 2 hours, must've gone through about 43 of them, but you know, i didn't like to say no! Because they were, they were just so please to see me"

Steve: Hahaha

Ricky: Oow god

Steve: Well it wasn't so much the fear of that, it's not

Ricky: Good skiing practice, i wasn't doing two at the same time for a little while

Steve: It's not the fear of that so much

Ricky: Hahahe

Steve: It's the fact that again, you don't want to gatecrash someone else's party, you don't, do you know what i mean

Ricky: No

Steve: You don't want, if someone, if there was a straight couple having sex, you'd want, 'Ooh, i'm sorry, and you'd wanna avoid that area'

Ricky: Yeah, course

Steve: But someone told me, and someone told me that,how it works, and apparently you just go and sit on a bench or something, and then another just sits on the bench, and they just look at each other, there's not really anything said, it's just kinda a nice evening or whatever, you know, i guess it's like 2 in the morning or whatever, and then they go off into the bushes and ding dong. But it's like i don't know how that culture's developed

Ricky: This is, i love this program

Steve: But why can't that be the case with women?

Ricky: Hahaha

Steve: That would be amazing, you'd just go out to the park at about 1 in the morning, you just sit on a bench, just

Ricky: It's like a scene from Gi-gi

Steve: Exactly

Ricky: Yeah, just walking along with the Perambulater

Steve: Y-yeah, exactly, but that would just be a joy if there was none of this formality, you've gotta talk to 'em, buy 'em dinner

Ricky: Arr you're joking

Steve: Romance

Ricky: Oh no

Steve: Just this kind of informal thing

Ricky: So what

Steve: Great

Ricky: So what, what would you do then, sort of go up to a woman and go 'Come on'

Steve: Yeah

Ricky: Let's stop mucking around

Steve: We know why we're both sat on this bench

Ricky: There's err, there's a nice bush over there

Steve: Yeah

Ricky: Let's have a bit

Steve: Yeah, and then she'd go 'yeah, great, thanks you know i'm killing some time before i, you know, pop into town'

Ricky: Yeah

Steve: 'That'd be perfect, thanks. You make my weekend'

Ricky: So you're jelous of gays as well as me

Steve: In a sense, in a way

Ricky: What do you think Karl?

Karl: Let's put a track on

Ricky: Why? You getting scared now?

Steve: You bought it up

Ricky: Is it getting too close to the bone? so to speak heh
