Mystic Mug
Ricky: Xfm 104.9, Dandy Warhols, Bohemian Like You. It's the Ricky Gervais Show.
Steve: With Steve Merchant.
Ricky: Yeah! Exactly, and Karl, whose turned our microphones on.
Steve: Whay!
Ricky: Can’t believe it. Doin’ that.
Steve: Good to see you Karl, good to see you Ricky.
Ricky: Cheers, cheers. Now, in a fun filled and music filled show, we've got music and fun.
Steve: Yes, looking forward to that.
Ricky: Two hours, solid two hours, there's no gaps.
Steve: There's nothing – there’s no.
Ricky: There'll be no dead air.
Steve: There will be adverts sometimes..
Ricky: The adverts, yer, but I mean you know, that's, that’s what pays our wages innit really.
Steve: Certainly. Certainly.
Ricky: And some of the adverts I think are quite amusing!
Steve: Yes! No I think the ones that you're on.
Ricky: Yeah. Uh, we've got um... our hip-hop challenge, we've got Song for the Lovers, Song for the Ladies, we've got a film review, so, just, yeah.
Steve: Magnificent, had any calls about that Rick? Any, maybe Channel 5 or someone onto you?
Ricky: No, there haven't no.
Steve: That's strange, that's wierd....
Ricky: No, no, but it's, I think it's a bit ahead of itself, because it's very unique.
Steve: Sure. Sure.
Ricky: It’s not like other -- it's a bit, a bit out there. Anything caught your eye, uh, this week Steve?
Steve: Well Rick, I uh, I know that both you and I are kind of obsessed with these people who believe in, you know, people who can predict the future, or have got contact with the dead or whatever,
Ricky: Yeah.
Steve: And uh, I know Mystic Meg is a bit of a nonsense, but people do take her seriously. On the cover of The Sun today: Mystic Meg Won Me 15 Million Quid.
Ricky: Wow!
Steve: Right, and you're thinking, that's not – that’s a pretty amazing claim, I know that Karl believes in Mystic Meg and all that sort of rubbish, you know. You're thinking, wow, here at last is proof that she has got powers, and you're wondering to yourself, well maybe she predicted the numbers specifically, you know that would be a hell of a --
Ricky: Just to - just to him..
Steve: Yeah, which is incredible, which is absolutely incredible.
Ricky: Yeah.
Steve: And so there's this guy, uh, "Lottery Mad Tom Nailer", he's a lorry driver, right, he won 15 million quid.
Ricky: Yeah.
Steve: He says, um, "I always read my horoscope in The Sun and follow the advice". Ah, basically, what Meg said was: "Keep a lottery ticket in a yellow mug, to add luck". So you're thinking, well Ok, he's kept his ticket in a yellow mug, that's still pretty extraordinary,
Ricky: Yeah.
Steve: Mm. "I didn't have a yellow mug," says Tom, "So I put it in the pages of my mapbook"... sorry, "I put the ticket in the pages of my map book, which is yellow”.
Ricky: Right. He's used the yellow, no, he's used the yellow!
Steve: Yeah, no, see I don't know much about how Mystic Meg works, I'm assuming maybe there's some kind of pseudo-science that she applies.
Ricky: Yeah.
Steve: I think if she'd said put it near anything yellow: fine.
Ricky: Yeah.
Steve: She said put it in a yellow mug, that's pretty specific,
Ricky: Yeah.
Steve: From that he's thought, “Well I'll ignore Meg's advice, I always do what she says .. if she says put it in a yellow mug, I’ll put it in –“
Ricky: She's had two sort of like, you know, um, uh, points of reference there: the descriptive, the yellowness of the object,
Steve: Yeah.
Ricky: And the object itself and that should one be a mug.
Steve: Yeah. Sure. Yeah.
Ricky: What's missing in the yellow book is the mugness.
Steve: The mugness! Is one of the intrinsic elements.
Ricky: It's got lots of bookness,
Steve: Yeah.
Ricky: But it wasn't the bookness that gave him the 15 million. So uh,
Steve: Exactly, exactly.
Ricky: I reckon, I reckon: Mystic Meg Won Me 7 and a Half Million.
Steve: Right.
Steve laughs
Ricky: Would have been a more accurate --
Steve: Sure, sure, yeah. So, I don't know, what, Karl, do you think that's pretty spooky? And weird, unnatural stuff?
Karl: Sor-I’m just a bit livid today. I wasn't really listenin' to what you were saying.
Steve: Not paying attention!
Karl: Yeah, sorry.
Steve: Ok. Do you wanna notify us, before we ask you a question?
Ricky: Yer, yeah, you are given to us, go on – wh-what --
Karl: No, it would have just been nice if woulda, like, warned me you were gonna ask me about it... I'm just, just a bit livid.
Steve: Right.
Ricky: Go on, what about?
Karl: Just, just, I don’t wanna talk about it.
Steve: Have I done something?
Karl: No, no, not you two. Just, just a bit livid.
Ricky: Eh! Xfm 104.9!
Steve laughs

[edit] Birds With Knobs
Ricky: Stand clear, Adam F, MOP. We all know who's dad Adam F. is.
Steve: Who was it again?
Ricky: No... We all know who's Adam F.'s dad of. We all of know dads. Do we?
Steve: Rick, can you keep it, keep filling, ‘cause I've realised I've left my mobile phone on, and the kind of calls I’m gonna be getting on a Saturday afternoon,
Ricky: Yeah, I’ll just keep –
Steve: Yeah! Just keep talkin’, Rick.
Ricky: Er, no one'll notice, just... Oh, that was Adam F. and MOP, Stand clear. We all know Adam F.'s got a dad...
Ricky: Ohh. Done it again. Do you remember the trivia quiz?
Karl: Forgot it.
Ricky: Whose Dad is Adam F.?
Karl: Elvin Stardust!
Ricky: Yes, Shane Thenton, that's what the F must be for. You back?
Steve: That's done, yeah.
Ricky: Yeah, we wouldn't wanna be, argh. All the people that are calling you all the time!
Steve: Ho ho ho! The ladies!
Ricky: Oh God. Anyway, Xfm 104.9.
Steve: Rick, I know you’re a big um,
Ricky: We're gonna start now, we're gonna start now, this proper radio, from now. Go. Go.
Steve laughs
Steve: Oh, there's a lot of pressure on me now.
Ricky: Yeah.
Ricky laughs
Steve: I’m gonna muck it up.
Ricky laughs
Steve: Um, now uh, Rick, I know you're a big trivia fan,
Rick: Mm.
Steve: I know you're obsessed with trivia.
Ricky: Love it.
Steve: And I thought to myself, well how can I entertain Rick on Saturday.
Ricky: Go on.
Steve: So I was, ah, wandering around on the web looking for um, uh, trivia basically, that could entertain you. And you're a big animal trivia fan.
Ricky: I love animal facts.
Steve: And there's not much you don't know about animals. But here's uh, here’s something.
Ricky: You're gonna catch me out now aren't you?
Steve: Oh well, I don’t know. Um, here's one, I don't know if you've heard this one before: Ants –
Ricky: Yeah?
Steve: --never sleep.
Ricky: No, I know. Yeah.
Steve: "Ooh I know!” Easy for you to say now!
Ricky: And – and, they’ve got alcohol in their blood, so they don’t freeze in winter, and, that's why you never see a lazy ant. It's always working.
Steve: Mm.
Ricky: It's drunk, but it's always working.
Steve: Well, they - they never sleep, but they do take a lot of fag breaks.
Ricky laughs
Ricky: Yeah! I know, yeah. I think it's ‘cause they can’t sleep, ‘cause it's like, like noisy neighbours, there's about a million of them,
Steve: Yeah, it’s a nightmare.
Ricky: Living sometimes in a room. And they just, it must be a real -- But you see 'em, you can see ‘em carrying a leaf and they see someone else, and they say "Do want a hand with that?" and they say "Don't be silly, you're carrying summat, 8 times your bodyweight as it is." He goes, "Well, you know, I’ve got another pair of hands free,
Steve: Yeah!
Ricky: “I'll give you a hand." Yeah they're great, ants.
Steve: Yeah, yeah, they’re incrazable - they're incredible.
Ricky: Yeah, I knew that one - next.
Steve: Um, Ok, all right then, this is, uh, this is one I’m throwin’ right at you as well Karl. Uh - there's only one bird that has a penis.
Ricky: It’s not, it’s not a joke –
Steve: Which bird is it?
Ricky: It's not a joke?
Steve: No, it's not a joke, this is not a joke. This is genuine trivia question.
Ricky: Ok, I'd say... Oh. I'll say, I think I've seen one on this, uh, is it an ostrich?
Steve: Right, you're going for ostrich. Karl?
Karl: I'll go for ostrich as well.
Steve: Right. Did you come up with that yourself, or -?
Karl: Yep, I was gonna way that, before he said it.
Steve: Right. Well guys you went for ostrich,
Karl: Chicken?
Steve: You're both wrong. It's actually the swan.
Ricky: At the last – “Chicken!“
Steve laughs
Steve: Yeah.
Ricky: That's a bit worrying then, ‘cause I thought I saw an ostrich penis, so what was I looking at?
Steve: I don't know, were you just examining it closely at the zoo, what were you -
Ricky: No, I just, was just...
Steve: It was probably a strap-on.
Ricky: It was probably two lezzer ostriches giving each other one.
Steve laughs
Steve: Yeah. Exactly!
Ricky: And that's how it can influence, peop- things like that, dirty, filthy lezz ostriches can -
Steve: Confuse a child! If he's at the zoo, and he doesn’t know.
Ricky: A swan's got a --? That's really annoying, I tell – ‘cause, I’d never give a swan a knob.
Steve: Mm.
Ricky: (stammers) It's the puffiest of all birds, innit!
Steve: It is the puffiest of all birds.
Ricky: "Oh, I'm protected by the Queen, but I need a knob”. I'd give, if I had to give a knob to any bird, um...
Steve laughs
Steve: Good question!
Ricky: No!
Steve: No, I wish I’d posed that, myself! If you could give a knob to any bird, what would it be? Phone in. 0--
Ricky: Vulture!
Steve: Well of course a vulture, yeah.
Ricky: That - they need a cock.
Steve: A big, veiny –
Ricky: Yeah.
Steve: What about yourself, Karl? If you could give a knob to any bird? And don't make it rude! “Ooh, if I could give a knob to any bird, I’d made it that Jordan!”
Ricky: What bird (mutters). It's gotta be a bird of prey or summat like that hasn't it?
Karl: Just a robin, really.
Ricky and Steve laugh
Steve: That would have been amazing! That would be beaut-
Ricky: Yeah!
Karl: Christmas cards would be like --
Ricky and Steve laugh
Ricky: Yeah,
Steve: That would be brilliant!
Ricky: But it's a normal human-sized knob, on a robin.
Steve: Yeah. Exactly.
Ricky: That would be great wouldn't it.
Steve: That would be genius.
Ricky: And the other thing annoying about this, this is ironic, right, now, all, the male of all bird species are usually, they're called the cock, right.
Steve: Yes.
Ricky: But the only bird with a cock,
Steve: Yeah,
Ricky: Right, is called a "cob"!
Steve: Is that what a swan's called?
Ricky: Yeah! They’re cob and pen, they’re not cock and hen!
Steve: Right. That’s annoying.
Ricky: And he's got – they’ve – he isn't a cock, but he's got a cock!
Steve: Yeah, yeah, quick query there Rick.
Ricky: Go on.
Steve: When you then cock, presumably you meant male bird, the first time you said it.
Ricky: Yeah, yeah.
Steve: The second time you said it, you said "cock", do you mean the penis?
Ricky: Well, you're showing off the whole farce of radio broadcasting --
Steve: Because you're not really allowed to say cock when you mean penis.
Ricky: No, exactly! No! One cock would b- cause great offense.
Steve: Yeah.
Ricky: The other cock's fine.
Steve laughs
Steve: Exactly.
Ricky: It's weird isn't it?
Steve: It is strange, it is strange. So if we said, if I said now to you now, you know, "Oh, I like cocks",
Ricky: Yeah.
Steve: Meaning birds, that would be fine.
Ricky: Yeah, that's fine. Yeah.
Steve: But if it meant penises it would be a problem.
Ricky: If you like cocks and it was penises, yeah yeah. That would be, yeah.
Steve: Right, Karl do you like cocks?
Ricky laughs
Steve: Do you like cocks?
Karl: No.
Steve: Right, Ok, no that's fine, that's fine. I was askin’ if you liked --
Ricky: No, I, I, I like, you know,
Steve: Yeah. Well I’m uh, I’m a big fan of, um, tits.
Ricky: The small birds that come down and peck at your --
Steve: Yeah.
Ricky: Yeah. You like tits and cocks, there's nothing wrong with –
Steve: Tits and cocks! There’s nothing wrong with that.
Ricky: There’s nothing wrong with -- Karl, don't worry. There's nothing wrong with saying tits and cocks.
Steve: No, ‘cause when I said "tits" I meant the little birds.
Ricky: Yeah. They come down.
Steve: And when i say cocks I mean the big birds.
Ricky: Yeah. Do you know, when um--
Ricky laughs
Steve: Go on, no, go on.
Ricky: No, it's just that when you were talking about tits.
Steve: Yeah.
Ricky: You know, at the milk. Do you, they – they – they – I like the fact that they flutter away when they hear the milkman coming.
Karl: Oh, come on!
Ricky: What?
Steve: So wait, what you talking about? What are you talking about? No, when the milkman's coming, when he’s walkin’ up --
song
[edit] Look At Karl's Face
Ricky: Ash, and Sometimes, lovely song. Gotta apologise to our producer there, ‘cause he was worried about -- there was nothing wrong with it, it's just like saying you, you know, you like watching birds in the garden --
Karl: It's just I think you're better than that.
Ricky: I know, it's cheap isn't it to say like, I like tits,
Steve: Yeah, I like tits.
Ricky: Or I like cocks, so we're gonna be a bit more literary now.
Steve: Go on.
Ricky: One of my favourite things is Fanny by Gas Light.
Steve: Really? That’s interesting.
Ricky: Yeah.
Steve: That's interesting, I'm a big fan of Moby Dick.
Ricky: Oh, the – oh yeah, the book. Moby Dick. Not the medical condition,
Steve: No, no no no no.
Ricky: There's nothing innuend – no, it's the big horrible thing that used to swallow sea men.
Steve: Yeah.
Ricky: Now I, in the winter,
Steve: Yeah.
Ricky: Steve.
Steve: Go on.
Ricky: There's nothing I like more than to keep my hands warm in a muff.
Steve: No, sure, sure, sure. You mean those kind of furry things that, you know classy looking ladies used to have --
Ricky: Yeah. Posh ladies, often put their hands in -- You know when you have a nice, like party --
Steve: You have a nice party, yeah, a winter party, yeah.
Ricky: And you might take the wrong hat or something, there's nothing I like more than to see two posh women with their hands in each other's muffs,
Steve: Ho-ho! That’s always a fun bit!
Ricky: And they're going, "Oh, this must be yours!”
Steve: Yeah. That is always funny.
Ricky: Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Um, but, seriously, no, no, stop this, you’re right. I’ve got a degree in --
Steve: I've just remembered that my favorite Beatles song is "Come Together".
Ricky: Yeah. Now, we're gonna stop this now Kar., ‘cause it's childish, (stammers). You’re right, I've got a philosophy degree.
Steve: Yeah.
Ricky: For Christ sake, and it's about time --
Steve: Who's your favorite philosopher, do you mind me askin'?
Ricky: Well, I would tell you, except, when I ever talk about it I always go into a cockney accent, so it it can be like "My favorite philosopher – I like a bit of Kant".
Steve: Right. Is that Immanuel Kant? The philosopher.
Ricky: Yeah.
Steve: That's strange.
Ricky: Yeah.
Steve: What's his name again?
Ricky: Kant.
Steve: Oh yeah. yeah. That can be weird, can be strange!
Ricky: Look at Karl's face!
Steve: Oh, look at his face.
Ricky: Look at his face!
Steve: Join in Karl! Undo your trousers, just let it all hang out, let your cock hang out.
Ricky: We'll be like Stan Boardman, when he told the Fokker joke.
Steve laughs
Steve: Yeah! Of course!
Ricky: We - we won't do local radio again for 10 years.
song
[edit] Wayne King
Ricky: Ian Brown, Dolphins Were Monkeys.
Steve: Yup.
Ricky: Before that, don't know what that was. Um, I'm still pissed off that swans have got cocks.
Steve: Yeah.
Ricky: It's a waste, it's a waste of a knob with a swan.
Steve: I know what you mean. I know what you mean.
Ricky: They don’t know what they’re doing with half the time. Um, now, we've got some great -- do you remember, we've stopped all the silly innuendos now, but do you remember --
Karl: I think it's because they've got a long neck, and to balance them properly in the water --
Ricky laughs
Karl: What are those things that boats have underneath?
Steve: A rudder.
Karl: No-
Ricky: No, the big thing – the keel – the keel -
Karl: It might be, do you know what I mean?
Ricky: Yeah, it might be, you might be right. Yeah.
Karl: Balancing them.
Steve: Well but, what about – but ducks would need one as well wouldn't they?
Ricky laughs
Ricky: Ducks don’t –
Karl: No, cause they've got short necks.
Steve: Oh, I see what you mean, it's the necks, yeah.
Ricky: So, hold on, do you think that's, so long necks - long knob?
Steve: Don't look at me Gervais.
Karl: Ask Steve!
Ricky: I know, no, Sandi Toksvig's got a tiny cock hasn't she?
Steve: But she has got one, which is interesting.
Ricky: That's libelous, I'd just like to say that Sandi Toksvig has never had a knob.
Steve: No, she's not.
Karl: But you're not lying about the neck...
Ricky: No, she's got a little neck, that's fine, that’s, that's clear for all to see. I just remember um, a bloke I saw on Opportunity Knocks once,
Steve: Opportunity Knocks?
Ricky: Yeah. It was a pianist, and this is true, and his name was "Wayne King". I - do you like Wayne King?
Steve: Karl, what's your opinion on Wayne King?
Karl: I don't know his work.
Ricky laughs
Steve: You're not a fan of his work. Ok. No, no, that's fine! Karl! We asked you're opinion mate, and you've given it. And that's all we can ask for.
Ricky: Aw. No opinion on Wayne King, at all.
Steve: If you, if you're a fan of Wayne King at home, please get in touch, the email address, uh, I had, [email protected]. What was the number again, 08700 800 1234. You know, if you like Wayne King or if, you know,
Karl sighs
Ricky: No!
Steve: Karl, what are you talking about, we're asking someone's music opinion, it's a music station, what – you, you’re strange!
Karl: Is it gonna be like this all day?
Ricky and Steve laugh
Ricky: If it’s – if we -
Karl: Let's talk about you and your girlfriends again. I think people enjoy that more.
Ricky: Ooooohhh!
Steve: Oh, there he goes!
Steve: Wow! I’ll tell y--
Ricky: You are grumpy, why are you grumpy? You’re all grumpy ‘cause you been, lo- c’mon, tell us. Come on.
Karl: I think, I think I’ve got S.A.D.
Ricky: What's that mean?
Karl: That thing when it’s dark –
Ricky: Sade?
Karl: You know when it's dark outside and you feel depressed.
Ricky: Oh yeah.
Karl: I think I’ve got that.
Steve: But you're from Manchester! Isn’t it like pitch black there all the time?
Ricky and Karl laugh
Steve: W-w-which country is it, Iceland, where it's like, it’s like dark all year.
Ricky: Yeah! The land of the mole people.
Steve: Yeah. Yeah.
Karl: No. I was telling Steve before, in fact, I’m not gonna bore you with it. Go on, what, what were we saying about Wayne King?
Steve: Well you bored me with it earlier, can't you bore him with it?
Ricky: Yeah, it's only fair. What were you saying about what?
Karl: Wayne King
Karl laughs
Steve: Did you say --
Ricky: Oh Karl, play a record!
Steve: Oh that’s a disgusting, Karl! You're a pervert!
song
[edit] Children In Need
Ricky: Liquido, Play Some Rock. That's what we're doing, Steve!
Steve laughs
Steve: We are indeed!
Ricky: Before that, Weezer, Island in the Sun.
Steve: Can I just ask Karl a quick question?
Ricky: Yeah, why does he swear so much on radio? No?
Steve: No, no, no. No, no. Karl, did you see that film last night, "Gaylords say no"?
Karl: Ummm ... yes.
Steve: Aw.
Ricky: What were you watching that for?
Steve: Yeah! Weirdo!
Ricky laughs
Steve: Ohh. You, you’re always gonna lose with that one. Rick, did you see that film last night "Gaylords Say No"?
Ricky: No. Ah, no!
Steve: That means you're a gaylord.
Ricky: Aww.
Steve: That is actually, the official way of finding out if someone's gay.
Ricky: That's how Oscar Wilde got caught.
Steve: Exactly how he got caught.
Ricky: They went "Well we've got evidence … (mutters) So anyway, cheers M’lud. Oh before you go, uh, Oscar – see that film last night "Gaylords Say No?”
Ricky and Steve: No.
Ricky: "Take him away".
Steve: Yeah. Take that bender downstairs.
Ricky: Take him out of my sight.
Steve: That is how they got him! That is the official way.
Ricky: Yep. Yeah.
Steve: Children in Need last night, Rick. Ho-ho!
Ricky: Ohh. I got - watched a bit of it.
Steve: Did you watch any of it, Karl. It's awful isn't it?
Ricky: It is pretty bad.
Steve: It's the worst thing ever, I mean it just -- I've said this before, the thing about Children in Need, it makes the whole country and BBC 1 for one day into just one big school fete.
Ricky: Yeah. Exactly.
Steve: D’y’know what I mean. It's so pathetic. The entertainment is ill thought out, it's just, it’s just boring --
Karl: I'd prefer it if the just made everyone pay a pound.
Steve: That'd be fine! Yeah.
Karl: And they'd make more money, and we wouldn't have to sit through it.
Steve: Just add it to the license fee.
Ricky: But surely that's, exactly, surely that's just a taxation that we should, you know, as opposed -
Steve: But that's fine.
Ricky: As opposed to going through this nonsense of people from west-end musicals who aren't selling come out and do a song.
Steve: Yes! Yeah! Of course!
Ricky: Oh, God!
Steve: ‘Cause it’s just - they may as well, because there was Terry Wogan at one point going around the audience, with a bucket, just rattlin’ it, getting people, members of the audience to put loose change in a bucket! I’m just - it's national television!
Ricky: Yeah!
Steve: I’ve watchin’ did - they've already had to sit through 3 hours of rubbish, now you're making them pay for it.
Ricky: Does -does he get paid?
Steve: I, I don’t know, if he done it for charity. I know- you notice a lot of people that go on there, though, all the pop acts that go on there are all plugging a new single.
Ricky: Of course, but that's the deal.
Steve: It's like there's this mask, of sort -this charade of charity, but they're all plugging a single.
Ricky: Yeah!
Steve: It's just pathetic, it's utterly path-- they may as well bring on a big tombola, you know, and guess how many, kind of, pennies are in the jar, and -
Ricky: How did Pudsey lose his eye as well?
Steve: Well, he'll get another one out if he's not careful.
Ricky laughs
Steve: And um, I, I was watching it quite late, we just had it on in the corner while we were chatting and stuff, and um, about 1 o’clock in the morning, Ok, they'd, they’d been promising this for ages. It was a couple of, sort of Hollyoaks stars or something,
Ricky: Yeah.
Steve: Male, male stars were gonna be part of a male stripper –striptease, the Full Monty type thing.
Ricky: Yeah, I turned that off.
Steve: Yeah.
Ricky: I didn't wanna watch that, Steve.
Karl: Do you notice how he said they'd been promising it for ages, it was on at 1 in the morning.
Ricky: Yeah.
Karl: Almost like he was staying up.
Ricky: Yes, Karl's got you!
Steve: Well you've got the measure of me Karl!
Ricky laughs
Karl: It's a bit weird, Steve!
Ricky: Yeah!
Steve: Did you see that film last night, Gaylords Say No?
Ricky laughs
Steve: No but the point was right, the thing about the um -- are you a gaylord tape -- tied to a tree?
Ricky: Yeah.
Karl: Yeah.
Steve: There you are then.
Ricky: There you are. Done ya. Karl: Have you really done me?
Steve: No but seriously, so they bring on these, uh, this this this male stripper, kinda, gang come on, y'know, firemen or whatever, and they come on, and then they cut to the audience, and there was one woman just putting her glasses on.
Ricky laughs
Steve: It was like a 40 year old woman, it's like it was 1 in the morning, she'd fallen asleep and her friend must've gone "Agnes, Agnes -- quick put your glasses on. Wake up, they're getting their cocks out”. And I mean cocks.
Ricky: Yeah, yeah.
Steve: And they, they did this striptease right, they did this striptease, and I have to swear, right, they went right down to their um, their underwear and they were just flashing their arses, they just – it was ut- and I was thinking, this is for kiddies! And it was obscene, it was utterly obscene, I was actually appalled.
Ricky: Not at 1 in the morning it's not!
Steve: What're you talking about, it was appalling! It’s Children In Need!
Ricky: Well the charity is.
Steve: No but it was just – it was, it was offensive. I was offended by it. It was the BBC, it was charity, and there were blokes with their todgers almost out.
Ricky laugh
Ricky: Yeah but the fact that it’s – yeah but it’s post-watershed, you can have any event and give it to anything can't ya?
Steve: No! That's not right! It's for children! 'Cause a lot of children will stay up and watch that, their parents will sort of go "Yeah, it's fine”, y'know, "You can stay up and watch Children In Need, that's for kids”.
Ricky: Yeah. But then arses aren't, you know.
Steve: It was! But it was just arses, they gave the impression they were fully nude! I mean thankfully they weren't, I made a close inspection.
Ricky laughs
Steve: But. It was obscene!
Ricky: Yeah, me and Karl, Karl's—
Steve: You got the measure of me.
Ricky: Me and Karl are looking at each other.
Steve: You’re looking at each other?
Ricky laughs
Steve: Gazing into each other's eyes?
Ricky: What's happened to us, yeah, just for one week only we're back at school, Ok, there's innuendos, we laugh when we say the word bender, cock, uh, tits meaning birds --
Steve: Karl and Ricky sitting in a tree, K-I-S-S-I-N-G. Rick, have you been enjoying Bubba Spark's current hit -- Ugly, you're ugly, oh I'm ugly, ugly. A song which means nothing to me actually, I don’t -
Ricky laughs
Steve: I can't relate to it at all.
Ricky: I am, yeah, I am, yeah.
Steve: What do you make of Bubba?
Ricky: I like Bubba.
Steve: He's a sort of down-south kinda rapper.
Ricky: I know where this is going. I bet you've got a little bit of Bubba in your Hip Hop Challenge.
Steve: Ho ho ho! Well, we did have the Hip Hop Challenge a couple of weeks ago, but I lost, so basically we're just playing a favourite hip hop track of ours aren't we, each week -
Ricky: Yeah. Yeah.
Steve: And this is my selection, it's from Bubba's current album, it's not the hit "Ugly", it's uhj, the album's actually called "Dark Days, Bright Nights" and I believe this song presumably comes from that title 'cause it's called "Dark Days, Bright Nights". Enjoy it, Rick.
Ricky: I will.
