Ricky starts off by mentioning that the one thing that is very english is harping and whinging, Karl states that he was happiest in 1984 when he was 12 as when he was a kid he was always out on his bike, he then says that life started to get tough when he turned 13 as his mam gave him £1 to buy a birthday cake, he started to feel grown up to which ricky says that Karl will always be 58... Karl then stated that his mam always said that he was an old baby and that he looked stressed out from an early age to which Steve compares it to a horror film like Pilkington's Baby, Karl then goes on to say that his mam tried to send him to nursery but he wasn't having any of it and his mam said ok, Ricky is hysterical and does a mini roleplay to which Karl shocks both ricky and Steve by telling them a story in which he was taken away by some fella (his dads mate Tony) and took him to the pub when he was 3 or 4, his dad came in and said there you are to which Ricky screeches....
