"(Cheering and applause)" "(Bird call)" "(Applause stops)" "So, Eastbourne." "Hey, you crazy motherfuckers." "I used to go to school here, this is the school uniform that we wore and kind of funky it was, too." "OK, I'd better explain the tits." "Erm..." "Didn't have those at school - wanted to, but not in the school curriculum, even though I asked." "Didn't really - would have got my head kicked in." "Oh, yes, sir." "Erm, er..." "So, the breasts thing - as a transvestite, it's my job, right?" "Just wearing breasts." "That's it." "There's nothing..." "Don't get hung up about it." "When I first came out, I was with breasts, mit breasts as the Germans say." "Avec breasts, con breasts..." "Being a European, I know these languages." "That's the first thing I say whenever I get to France, Germany and Spain... or South America even." "Um, but I was with..." "It didn't seem to work." "Not matter how much make-up or how high the heels, people said, "Yes, sir?" ""Would you like tea with that, sir?"" ""Yes, I would." "Why don't you put it on my breasts?"" ""Certainly." "T ea for this man's breasts." "Anything else?"" ""Just fuck off, will you?"" "So I thought, "It's not working."" "I threw my beasts out of the window of my Lamborghini... in my mind." "I threw the breasts out of the window of my Ford Fiesta... in my mind." "Actually, I threw them over the handlebars of my bicycle." "(Mouths)" "And they hit a small child who ran home, "Mum!" "I've been attacked by jellyfish." ""Jellyfish drive-by shooting." ""It's just like South Central LA." "Huh?"" ""Jellyfish attacked me!" "Where are the tentacles?"" ""Probably burned up on re-entry." ""Probably from Mars, Mum." "Can I keep them and shove them up my jumper?"" "So I was sans breasts, ohne breasts or whatever the other one is and then I thought, "No, I have breast envy."" "Freud wrote about penis envy, which I don't understand, actually." "I'm sort of penis neutral." "Penis..." "What's not envy and then..." "What's the opposite of envy?" " What?" "What?" " (Woman shouts indistinctly)" "What?" "Ambivalent?" "Yes, very good." "Envy?" "Penis ambivalence?" "Yes." "Very nice." "Well done, Eastbourne." "A bit more voice but good." "What?" " (Woman) I'm Welsh!" " You're Welsh?" "Fantastic!" "That's great." "I'm European." "I know that causes..." "And so are you." "We all... (Growls)" "♪ There'll always be a China ♪" "Now, so..." "Ambivalent and Welsh," "I don't know how they go together but very good heckle." "I have penis ambivalence." "Thank you." "Or is there one in the middle?" "I have penis nonchalance really." "I'm very nonchalant about my penis." "I try and wear a pair of trousers occasionally or a skirt or whatever, and don't just wave it at the vicar." "It seems to throw him." "On..." "In..." "On his Lamborghini." "In his Lamborghini..." "Fucked that up." "That's the trouble with ad-libbing, you can fuck up." "It's danger." "You've got an element of danger and nonchalance or ambivalence or penis." "There's four sides to it." "It's one of those things you get at school." "(Mumbles)..ambivalence." "Lamborghini." "I used to do those!" "I can't remember what..." "Who you would kiss, I seem to remember." "And only certain people knew how to make them and they were wizards." "They could command things." ""I tell you must die." "Oh, fuck."" "And it's passed down, like the ability to make paper aeroplanes, that gets passed down." "I know how to make a really good one, probably taught that up the road, a very good model aeroplane." "I think it was there." "Might have been Wales cos I was in Wales." "I've been everywhere." "Very well-travelled when I was a kid." "My dad said, "Go." "Go where you want."" ""I'm going to Wales, Dad."" "I did." "I did, I cycled to Wales." "From here." "From Bexhill." " (Silence)" " OK." "I did and got all the way there and on the way back I got bored and took a train." "That's me, the crowds were smaller and, what's the point..." "That's too weird that joke, isn't it?" "That's too nonchalant-slash-ambivalent slash-penis-slash-ooh-painful." " Erm..." " (Audience member braying)" "Don't laugh like that, please." "What the hell...?" "The breast thing!" "So then I thought, "I'll go back and get some breasts."" "So I went to the breast shop, which is in your local high street," ""Pair of your finest breasts." It's like that scene in Harry Potter, with John Hurt." ""Why not a pair of these?"" ""Yeah."" ""I think not those breasts, Mr John Hurt."" ""Maybe the double-Ds would suit you?"" "So that was good and they do have advantages." "I hear you scream, "What advantages?" Silently." "For guys with tits, you lose weight immediately." "Your chest is bigger and you have this concave thing going on, quite apart from the fucking corset." "And people go, "You've lost weight!" "No, I've got big tits."" ""Ahhh." "Thought it was a haircut or something."" "So that's good." "You can pull your boobs out and strap them round your ears in a plane, with a bandage, cuts the noise down." ""Sorry?" "Beg your pardon?"" "There's always a child crying on an aeroplane, it's the law now." "(lmitates wailing baby)" "Even if there's no child crying, they go, "Who's got children?"" ""Right, come on." "I don't wanna go!" ""I don't wanna go to Denver!" "You're coming to Denver." ""Sit there." "Keep crying." (Wails)" ""If you stop, I'll use the fork."" "If you've been on a plane, no knives any more." "Just that plasticky knife, which seems a bit sharp to me." "But the fork, a metal, lethal weapon." "No one could do any harm with that." "If they stuck a fork in your jugular, you'd be, "Fine, thank you!" ""No, no real pain." "There's a..."" "Zzzz..." "".." "lack of blood problem."" "The forks, they'll go soon." "There'll just be a spoon and people will be attacking us with spoons." "Then they'll take the spoon away and it'll just be cheese." ""The cheese things..."" "We do get crap meals on planes." "T o an extent, you get on and you start..." "It all becomes so precious." ""Ohhh...the cheese!" ""The salad!" "Oh, the salad."" "And the little individual thing in your..." ""Can I have more?" ""More nibbly?" "Only one packet?" "They're very small nibblies." ""40 minutes in the air with a small packet?" "I can eat 100 of these fuckers." "More!" ""I've paid to come on the plane." "I want more nibblies than this." ""I've got an allergy to them and I still want them."" "Remember nuts?" "We ate nuts like crazy then they went, "No nuts,"" "cos people exploded or something." "Breasts, you've heard of breast implants?" "These are not implants." "They're nice and squidgy." "They're ims but they're not planted." "They're just ims, your regular, common or garden ims." "And, er..." "You've heard, on a plane, that implants explode?" "And that is...true, it happened to me." "Over 30,000 feet, you find..." ""Yeah, I know what you mean..."" "(Pops)" ""Sorry about this."" "Bong!" ""Yes, my left breast has...exploded." ""Have you got a pillow or...?" ""Oh...and some more nibbly things?"" "But then you got one L-cup boob and a D-cup boob and you get a lot of looks." "I already get a lot of looks." "By the end, I've got the fork... (Pops)" "Bong." ""Another pillow."" "You go off with the biggest tits in Christendom, as the Crusaders used to say." "Now, that all went wrong, the Crusaders." "They went down... "What a mess!"" " Thank God for Saladin, eh?" " (No response)" " It's very 1 3th century, that joke." " (Laughter)" "Or should I say 1200s?" "Isn't that just the bane of history?" "When they say 13th century, you haven't got a clue what they're talking about." "If they say 1 3th century, it's nothing to do with the 1300s but you immediately go into slow motion." ""In the 13th century, King Dingle Dang exploded his bottom..."" "You're going, "13th century, so that's not the 1300s, it's the 12..."" ""And King Dingle Dangle then invaded his own buttocks..."" ""..14th, it's either the 12th or the 14th..." ""We have to go back to the naughth century and that's the first century..."" ""..then he went to China and bought a packed lunch."" ""So it must be the 1200s!" "What?"" "My idea, radical as it may be, is to say if it's the 1200s, it's the 12th century." "Why the fuck not?" "Then loads more people would sign up for history." "Everyone would go, "I wanna do history!" "Tell me, who was Saladin?" ""Did he do salads?" "Is it a cooking programme?"" " (Muted audience reaction)" " Should be funnier." "OK..." "He was doing Islamic cooking jokes, for fuck's sake." "I ad-libbed it as well." "Why am I writing on my finger?" "No one cares." "But, all that's true and the other thing and that proves some of my theories." "Erm..." "Where the fuck was I?" "What was I talking about?" "Breasts!" "Yes, I know generally." "How far down the breast line..." "Yes!" "Exploding in aeroplanes." "True, true, true." "Except for the lies." "Now..." "Also, you can grab your boobs - I haven't seen women do this - when you're talking to officials, I find it very..." ""What?" "How fast was I going?" ""I don't even have a car." ""70mph on a scooter's very tricky."" "Or bank managers." ""I think £400 is not a lot to ask for." ""Don't you think it's not a lot?"" "Bank manager's going, "Yes, there's a million pounds." ""Get out of it, you big-breasted boy."" "And also, I have decided to associate with superheroes because we like superheroes, we have a human thirst for superheroes." "We have the X-Men, the Y-Men, the B-Men, the C-Men..." "No, probably not them." "Spider-Man, Superman, Catman, Batman, Dogman, Frogman." "Elephant Man - not a superhero." "Less in the girls' department - there's Wonder Woman and there's Supergirl and Catwoman, she's sexy." "Fit women in tight clothing, there should be more of that." "As a male lesbian, I'm totally in flavour of that." "So that's now, superheroes, and it goes all the way back to the Greeks." "Greek heroes, tons of them." "Achilles, Greek hero with the Achilles..." "The Achilles ankle..." "Achilles what?" "Achilles ankle?" " (Audience) Heel." " Heel, yeah!" "Sorry." "Achilles had the Achilles heel but I don't think it was like, if you flick it, he'd drop dead." "I think it was more like a funny elbow and he had a wobbly if you got him." ""Ah, ah, ah!" (Banging) "Ah!" "Ow, fuck!"" "And then he'd fall on a spike." "Agamemnon, he had an Agamemnon neck." "That was his weak spot." "If you caught him with an axe just there, he didn't like it." "And as his head rolled off, he'd go, "Ooh, bugger."" "And he'd go into emergency chicken mode ♪ Den den der, den den der... ♪" "Chickens do that, as soon as their head's off." "They lean in as they do that circle, keeps them going - centrifugal force." "Basic physics. ♪ Den den der... ♪" "Chickens are going, "What to do?" "Got no head." ""Got no head."

"Later that day." ""Here he..." "Er..." ""Not actually buried here cos he's a chicken and we ate him." ""If only he could pull the wishbone and make a wish." " (Silence) - "That should be funnier." ""Anyway, that's all from me." ""I think my job's a weird job." ""Speak to you soon, love from Kenny." ""PS." "My thumb hurts."" "So Agamemnon, Ajax - he was also there." "He was like the cleaner, like Harvey Keitel in Pulp Fiction." "And..." "And then King Menelaus, who was like a sponge cake." "There!" "Got a groan." "That got a groan." "Yes, I heard." "That was a groaner." "King Many Layers, shouldn't have used that." "I didn't, that was someone else." "Is that your shoulder or what?" "We'll cut all this out, cut the whole show out up to now." "Now we'll start, OK?" "Um..." "Hang on." "Scratch." "If you're wearing a skirt, you shouldn't scratch, girls never do, or go to the loo, or is that the Royal family?" "The Royal family never go to the loo, they just store it up and then just before they die they go..." ""Yeah, the Queen's dead."" "Just came to me." "I'm just ad-libbing." "It probably doesn't happen that way." "There's probably other people who have tubes and things." "Don't even go there." "Don't go there." "You filthy..." "Anyway..." "What?" "It's a glove puppet." "Yes, so, on the Trojan side you've got Helen who says..." "Paris seems like a personal shopper to me, with a name like that." ""I've just been there and got new socks and everything" ""and I found this woman, Helen."" "How did he get her to go?" ""Come on, Helen, let's go."" ""It might cause a rumpus."" ""I don't think so." "Come on."" "Fucking hell!" "What a rumpus." ""Dad, found this woman." "Where from?"" ""From Sparta."" ""Oh, you twit." "Nip upstairs, see if there are any ships on the horizon."" "(lmitates rapid footsteps)" "Ooh, I've gone dizzy." ""Ships." "Yeah, there's ships."" ""Well, how many?" "All of them."" ""You fucking nutter!" ""You've got all the Greeks, who don't actually exist yet as a unity," ""they're all coming."

""But, Dad, she's such a bonzer woman and I want to shag her brains in."" ""Well, good reason." "Come on, let's make a horse out of clay."" "So, and that was written up as a book." "The whole story, it was called Oh, Fucking Hell and What A Mistake." "And Odysseus was there." "Odysseus, who did the Odyssey." "If he was Jonathan, he would have done a Jodyssey." "And he didn't fight. "Go on, just kick them."" ""Help us, Odysseus." "I can't." ""I've got this Odyssey I'm gonna do on the way back." ""I've already sold the rights for the book."" ""You lazy bastard." And he did, he had a huge adventure." "There was the pig that got lost in the maze, not a pig, a big cow, wasn't it?" "I haven't read this bit in Edith Hamilton." "And there's a guy with one eye, called One-Eyed Guy, and... blue otters or something." "And the island, the island with the sirens, who are beautiful women who would sing to attract sailors." "♪ Come over here" "♪ In your ships" "♪ We are naked, shaggable women" "♪ Sail your ships over here" "♪ And we're shagging each other at the moment" "♪ Ahh... ♪ "A bit flat, Susan."" "♪ We've got very good parking for ships" "♪ Thing, things and just fucking get over here ♪" "We're not sure what the song was but it could have been... (Shrieking) ♪ Come over here" "♪ Won't you come?" "♪" "And the sailors would come over and crash on the rocks and die and the women'd go, "Ha ha ha-ha"." "Which is a very girly trick." "I heard about it at school." "When I grew up as a boy, against my will, it was very much a violent sort of..." "Ahhh." "I wouldn't have fights, I'd argue." "I'd go, "No, United Nations say I'm a special case,"" "and stop getting beaten up that way." "But girls would do the mind control thing, it seems, of, "We're not talking to her."" "Which is completely evil." "Boys just do violence, which is stupid and blockheaded." "But anyway, that whole bloody..." "I don't know if it was a lesbian island but it sounds fantastic anyway..." "They were sirens, they were probably standing on the cliff going... (lmitates air-raid siren)" ""A bit flat, Susan." (Continues with siren)" "Or maybe they were going..." "(Staccato alarm noise)" "(Pulsing alarm, police siren)" "(Bubbling siren, rapid pips)" "And Odysseus sailing by going, "Someone's trying to break into that island."" " (Applause) - (lmitates roaring engine)" "Probably not on a speedboat." "Probably a rigging boat with a big steering wheel," ""Someone's trying to break into that island."" "Or on a bicycle, "Someone's trying to break into that island."" "Or swimming, "Someone's trying to break into that island."" "Or water-skiing, "Someone's trying to break into that island."

""Someone's trying to break into that island."" "Football." ""Someone's trying to break into that island."" "T oo many endings." "OK." "So, that was fun, though." "And, and, and, and then there was Perseus." "Perseus was a Greek hero." "Son of Zeus, Per-Zeus, you see?" "Per-Zeus." "Through." "Per-Zeus." "Per-Zeus." "Perseus." "Per-Zeus." "Perseus." "Per-Zeus." "Perseus." "Per-Zeus." "This is a new form of teaching called shouting at people until they agree." "He was a son of Zeus, anyway, and his wife..." "Mother..." "Hole in the ground." "And, er...what happens?" "All the Greek myths, it looks like they were written by someone with an enormous bag of weed." "Going... "And then the green monkeys, who lived in a sponge cake," ""all decided to dress up as an enormous tart and..."" "It just goes on and on." "Perseus goes to a wedding." "A king, who's getting married, says," ""Where's my present?" "Oh, I forgot." "What about tissues?"" ""Where's my present?" "Oh, I forgot." "What about tissues?"" ""What I want is the head of Medusa, who's a Gorgon from the cheese family." ""Bring me her head." "What's she look like?"" ""Snakes for hair and if you look at her, you turn to stone.""

"Fuck off."" "He goes, "Where's Medusa live?"" ""Go to the island where the grey women live." ""Three grey women who have one eye between them that they swap round." "(lnhales sharply) "And then..."" "It's in there, you read it." "And then he was advised to grab the eye when they were passing it around." ""Where's the fucking eye?" "I've got to go to the loo."" ""Where's the eye?" "I've got it."" ""Oh, bum!" "The visitor's got it."" ""T ell me where Medusa lives." "Lives at number 23."" ""All right." "There's your eye." "Fucking lost it." "Hang on." ""That's a marble." ""That's a sheep's eye!" "That's weird."" " (Muted laughter)" " Should be funnier." "So he goes and there's three Gorgons." "You don't remember the other two, do you?" "Medusa, she lost her head but she got well known for it." "The other two, Fred and Jim or something." "Medusa's going, "He's coming to kill us!"" "And the other two are immortal, which is kind of handy." ""He's not coming to kill us." "He might kill you."" ""No, I'm immortal."" ""Are you?" "What about you, Andrew?"" ""No, I'm immortal, too."" ""Simon, Andrew, both immortal?" ""Where was I when the immortality van came by?"" ""You were off buying snake food."" "(Hisses)" ""Bloody hell." "Eh?" ""I'm going down the hairdressers."" "How did she get her hair done?" "In the morning, our hair's all over the place and we sort the hair out." "Her hair's all over the place all day." "Probably wakes up before her." ""Put a video about mice on the telly, the fucking snakes are up."" "Hairdressers hate her." ""Bloody hell, it's Medusa." ""So, what..." "What..." "You f..." ""Calm down." "Can you tell your hair to calm the fuck down?" ""Bloody..." "Hey!" "Get me a hairbrush." ""Janine, can you shampoo?"" ""Not on your life."" ""Just a trim was it?" ""Do your roots?"" "So, in the end, Perseus gets given magic things cos the gods like him and he gets a magic hat, magic trousers and a magic...tractor and loads..." "Magic purse, it's very camp." "And he ends up killing Medusa using a reflective surface, cos you can't look at her, so he's got a shield to attack but a shield is concave and therefore inverts the image, like in a Box Brownie," "not only reflects it but inverts the image." "How do you attack using that?" "You'd be going..." ""Could you stand still, please?" ""Are you immortal?" "You're one of the immortal ones?" ""Hi, Simon, how are you?" ""Is your sister in?" ""No, no reason." "All right, I'll come back later."" "Crazy story." "And there's a winged horse and everything." "So, what is my point?" "My point is...is that... the reason of the superhero thing, the link, transvestites and superheroes, is because we have a big similarity - both superheroes and transvestites have to change before we help people." "We have to change clothes before we help people." "Except transvestites don't actually help people but apart from that, fantastic similarity." ""Help!" "A small child is hurt!" "Help us, Superman." (Whooshing)" ""What's the problem?" "He's got a grazed knee."" ""You want Savlon on that, then a plaster over the top." ""Are there any others?" "No, just him."" ""Was it an earthquake?"

""I don't normally get out of bed for less than a helicopter crash."" ""It's just his bike." "Can you mend the front wheel?"" ""No, fuck off."" ""Why do you wear your pants on the..." "It saves on shopping." "Washing."" "(Laughter and applause)" ""That second answer got a much better reaction than the first."" ""The first one was wrong."

""I had a glass of wine but..." "Superman doesn't have a glass of wine."" ""He might, he might have fuel-injected wine into his body, you don't know."" ""It's true, I don't actually."

"cos you had to make it a certain size." "If you had all that and you waggled it around you could almost touch Mars if you were mad." "Yeah, it didn't..." "It's 35 million miles away." "That was a long bloody way away." "I wanna be woken up when Mars is... (Drones)" "(Lower-pitched drone)" "That's the noise you need, isn't it?"

"I was going around on a pogo stick in Los Angeles and..." "In my mind." "I was actually in Eastbourne in a Lambor..." "No, I wasn't." "I was on Mars, looking at Earth." "Oh, fuck it." "I don't know but it went from a little pinprick to three pinpricks and I went..." "Ah-ha-ha!" "Oh, no, there it is." "Ah!" "But it's exciting in a sort of tedious-type way." "It's exciting in a kind of, "Oh, fuck off."" "Because they went to the moon, the Americans and the Russians." "Remember?" "Russia was ahead." "Russia was first up and then America." "Russia went round the Earth." "Russia got a fish, a dog, a cat, a monkey, a tractor up there and... they were going to the moon - who's going to be first?" "Then Russia went, "I don't wanna go to the moon." ""I'm fed up anyway, never wanted to go there..."" "Maybe they thought, "There's only rocks there." But with a Russian accent."

"On the moon there's grey rocks, on Mars there's red rocks and that's a bit boring." "It's like archaeology, you know?" "I mean, that's a slow thing, isn't it?" "It can't be speeded up - it's got three vowels in the middle." "Arch-a-e-o-logy." "What's going on there?" "Did someone just unload a bunch of vowels in the middle of it?"

"I hadn't dug a ditch all my life." "I've never dug a ditch." "I never did much ditch digging, you know?" "I did sand castles, then I dug that fucking..." "Nothing in it, and that's true archaeology." "Sometimes there's nothing in there." "Except some worms going, "Have you seen Medusa?"" ""No, I haven't." "We are her hair in later years."" ""Really." "Do you do a tight perm?"" ""Yes, we can."" "When I came out as a transvestite I thought I should get a perm, so I went to Islington and they gave me rollers like this." "I remember these big Cindy Crawford-type rollers and these were tiny things, old lady rollers." "I came out looking like a bizarre footballer." "That was not a good day." "But I so thought it was right I went back and said, "Give me another one." ""Haven't you got bigger rollers?" "No, there are none bigger than that."" "True but kind of boring story." "So, yes..." "Er..." "What was I talking about?" "Yes, the archaeology thing." "So I dug this ditch and there was nothing in it." "And that was true, that was archaeology." "Actually, I wanted to find a hoard of Roman coins, a sword or a Viking helmet." "And I realised, I'm not into archaeology, I'm into piracy." "That's what I wanted to find!" "Piracy!" "Which is what the Vikings were, that's what Viking means." "And they were brilliant, cos they took over the whole of eastern England and up in Scotland as well." "A lot of their language - kiosk, that's a Viking word." "And it came from when they'd rape and pillage and awful, and blood everywhere and limbs hacked and money stolen, then they'd say, "If you have enjoyed today" ""you can get some souvenirs in the kiosk," ""which is just down on the beach." "Thank you." "Thank you."" "So, anyway..." "So, I was talking about people who have to change before they help." "There's a third group - firefighters." "They change clothes." "And we like them." "We pull over in our cars." "Soon as we hear... (lmitates siren)" "You look up in the mirror - "Fire"." "You look out the window, on the front of the van you see "Erif"." "Fire." "Erif." "And you almost go, "Get the erif van out of the way!" ""Let the firefighters through!"" "Then the police come and you see "Police" and you look out and see..." ""Ecilop"." ""Get out of the way, ecilop!" ""Ecilop one-eyed monster." "Let the police through."" "Then the ambulance comes... and that's good." "That's a good thing too." "But the police, I think we pull over more reluctantly for the police." "Cos there's good cop-bad cop, there's politics involved, sometimes they beat up the wrong person." "Firefighters - no politics, you just..." ""Godspeed!" And they go, "Which god?"" ""Any of them." "The Buddhist gods."" ""They don't have gods." "Well...technical!"" ""And he wouldn't go very fast, he's a big lad."" ""Yes." "Just fuck off." ""I mean, in a nice way."" "But they never have good firefighter-bad firefighter." ""Hitler and Nelson Mandela are trapped!"" "They get them both out, you know?" "Equality." ""Come on, Hitler, Nelson." "Actually - hang on, Hitler" " Nelson." ""Nelson Mandela, give him a cup of tea." ""Hitler, hang on, I've got to..." "I've got a stone in my shoe." ""I've just..." "I'll be right..." "Just hang on." "Keep your moustache on." ""Oh, he's all burnt up." ""Oh, tragedy." ""Oh, well, la-di-da."" "Annie Hall meets Hitler's last days in the bunker." "La-di-da." "Well, no more tennis for me." " (Feeble laughter)" " Very funny joke." "So, yes, the firefighters have a slidey pole." "All firefighters do." "In England, China, Venezuela, Afghanistan..." "Slidey pole, to get them from the first floor to the ground floor quickly." "I thought, why not have a room on the ground floor?" "Cos the fire engine would be here and you'd be sitting next to it going," ""I know what you mean, Steve, but..." (lmitates alarm)" ""Fire!" (Whooshes)" "This would be the response time." "0.2 of a nanosecond." "On the first floor it's inefficient." "20 guys - "Fire!" "Fire!"" ""Down the slide!" "Form a queue!" ""Go!" "Go!" "Go!" "Jump!" "Push him!" ""He's got his leg stuck now!" ""Twist the..." "Pull his..." "Use your axe, cut it." "Hack his..." ""I'm going in the lift." "Never go in a lift in a fire."" ""You're right." "It's not here..."" "It's not efficient, is it?" "Now it obviously hearkens back from years ago in the 1 9th century - 1 800s " "that...when they didn't have motorised fire vehicles, they had vehicles pulled by horses or marmots or vermin or whatever." "Panthers, sometimes." "(Growling)" ""The fire was put out and seven people died cos panthers ate them."" "But apparently - those are all lies - but the horse thing, apparently they put the thing in because the horses tried to get up the stairs, so they had to put a pole in so they couldn't..." "(High voice) "No, let us up!" "We wanna play canasta!" ""Come on, let us up, we're good at blackjack too."" "They're going, "Get down, horses!" ""The horses are trying to play cards." "Get out!"" ""No, let us up, let us up, we've got a weird voice."" "I don't know how to do a horse voice." "(Deep voice) "Hello."" ""Let us up or I'll blow the hair off my chinny-chin-chin."" ""That's copyright!" "I don't know."" "Erm..." "Yes, so that's true." "That sounds stupid but it's true." "The horses used to try and get upstairs." "I made it up as a piece of rubbish and I asked a firefighter and he said, "They used to go up the stairs." "Horses would come upstairs."" "Not to play cards necessarily." "But I think firefighters should just come upfront and say," ""There's no reason for a slidey pole but we want one."" "And we'd go, "Have one, have more, have several." ""Have a big snakes and ladders house, so the bell goes ding-a-ling."" "(Whooshing)" "One outside the building." "Double-turn and pike and twist and..." "Into an open-top fire engine." "(lmitates rewing engine)" "Put on the siren." "♪ Come to me" "♪ Bring your ships upon the shore" "♪ We've got parking, naked women... ♪" ""That's the Greek siren, you idiot!" "Not supposed to play that till the way back."" "They have a bag of cats by the window and throw them out." "One by one." "That's why you get that noise." "And it just so happens that Dr Doppler was sitting in his car one day..." ""This is a very interesting effect" ""that I have been studying now for the last two minutes and..." ""I will write a paper on this." "What will you call it?"" ""I will call it The Change In Note Of Cats Effect."" ""You should call it the Doppler effect" ""then people would shag you."" ""Yes." "Yeah, for my parents." "Yes." "Good idea." ""Not for the shagging - which is just fun." ""But it's worked well for you, Professor Pavlov."" ""Yeah, mainly dogs though, they tend to get you on the..." ""All rather embarrassing really." ""I wish I'd never rung those fucking bells." ""Drive me crazy - dogs keep eating everything!" ""Down the dog-food shop, driving me nuts."" "(Sighs)" "The thing I was talking about, the superhero thing, it's fear " "I've tried to push fear back, as a transvestite, push fear back." "People give me shit in the street, they go, "Hey, what's the fuckin'..." All this." "I've learnt martial arts since I had a big fight." "I'm a black belt in sashimi." "If you know sushi it's like that but it's sashimi." "You fling raw fish at people." "Salmon, salmon, tuna, salmon, salmon, tuna." "The white one that's horrible." "It gives you ten seconds of shock when they're going, "What the fuck?" ""This is fish."" "And when they're in the "What...?" you go, "Wasabi!" (Whooshes)" "Big ball of wasabi down the throat." "(Whimpering)" "So that can work." "I encourage you to try that if you're insane." "Also I'm a black belt in fukendo, which is basically swearing at people." ""Fuck off, you fucking asshole."" "And never say, "Come over here and say that," cos they tend to." "So stupid." "But to get out of that just say, "Now go over there and say that." "(Mumbles) "Now come over here and say that!" "(Mumbles) "Now go over there and say that." ""Now go to Venezuela and say that." (Mumbles)" "When they're in Venezuela you can escape." "But it is, it's this fear thing." "Show no fear, and..." "And it's like animals, like sharks, sharks can smell blood, hear blood, taste blood." "And hear - no, they've got no ears, have they?" "Sharks' ears are so swept back they can only hear things right at the back." "They comb their ears back." "Sharks are evil fucking beasts, they're protected but they're evil..." "Those eyes are useless, they're transfers, they're from an Airfix model, just..." "So you can go up to a shark and go, "Blah-la-la,"" "and they won't take offence." "It's the nose - the nose is sonar." "It's complete, like a..." "Bong!" "Bing!" "They send out pings..." "Ping." "Probably not pings, could just be..." "Blub-bu-lub..." "But if you bang them on the nose, if you get near a shark, you know, off the coast of Eastbourne, great big shark, then hit him on the nose, they go, "Whoa!""

"But they're mean and they've got teeth, but they are protected." "The great white shark, a protected species because if they all die there won't be any huge murdering beasts in the sea." "Which I think is a good thing, isn't it?" "Anyway, forget them." "But..." "Dogs are interesting, with dogs I, again, I show no fear," "I put my hand in front of their mouth to show I'm not scared about biting and the dogs never, ever, except occasionally, bite me." "But if they do try to bite me I pull away and then I pull back so the dogs are now upside down." "They're going..." "And I undercut them and they come underneath and over the top and I spin round until the dog is going round in circles then I throw in towels and it does a good tumble dry." "1 5 minutes." "A bit arduous." "But a lot of dogs are not too bright." "The bright dogs were with the Egyptians in the early days." "They're on their walls, you know?" "I think they were from another planet and they went, "Woof, woof..." ""..pointy things..." "Woof, woof..." "Bye."" "And off in a spaceship." "They left behind dogs going, "Huh?""

"Which is brilliant because it means racist people can retire." "And yes." "They have done well." "Wonderful racist people who brought bile and hatred into the world and many, many deaths, piles of bodies." "Hitler, there's an interesting person." "If he hadn't hated so many people - he killed six million Jews." "A lot of them were German citizens, they would've fought for him - he could've won!" "Think about that." "If he hadn't hated so much, that..." "Anyway." "That was another war." "So, what's my point?" "Africa, we're all from there, and racist people, interestingly, are never as polite as smokers." "Smokers always go, "Do you mind if I smoke?" ""You do?" "OK, I'll go outside."" "Racist people never go, "Do you mind if I'm racist?" ""You do?" "I'll go outside." ""Fucking blue people."

"Eastbourne, you're a crazy rock'n'roll town." "Well, rocks." "Pebbles." "Erm..." "Yes, so, they invented that." "They invented fire." "Then someone invented the wheel." "They say this person was a genius." "The person who invented the axle was a genius." "A wheel without an axle is just a lazy Susan." "And what was that before the wheel was invented?"

"No, you have to drill a hole." "There's so many different inventions..." "So, they invented it..." "And there were two types of human bipeddy-type things - there was Neanderthals and Homo sapiens."

"And thank God they died cos if they had made it," "Homo sapiens wouldn't have made it." "Then everything would be different." "Book Of The Month Club on television would be" "(Sluggishly) "And now we have Professor..." "Erm..." "Uhhh." ""What do you think of this book?" "What?"" ""What do you think of this book in a critical way?"" ""It's all right."" ""There you have it." "It's all right."" "News programmes would be, "And now," ""we have, what, breaking news..." ""Errr..." "Thuhh..." ""Er, what's all this, to here, what's this line?" "What's this white thing?" ""What's this crawler thing?" "What's the..." "More news?" ""Now, over to Steve." "Steve." "What?"" ""What's going on?" "What?" "Where?" "Uhhh." ""What?" "What now?" "What, here?" "Uhhh..."" ""Now over to the politicians debating who will be leader."" ""I would like to be leader cos I got teeth."" ""I'd like to be leader cos I haven't" ""and have no need of dentistry."" ""I don't want to be leader." ""I'm in it for cash."" "Shakespeare would..." ""T o be or not to be, you know, or maybe." ""It's a question whether it's nobler to suffer slings and arrows" ""and a club in the face" ""or to wrestle a rat for half an hour, you know." ""Maybe that's nobler." ""Anyway, that's all from me, love, Bill."" "Those Changing Room programmes would be," ""All right, well, you know, I thought we'd put excrement here and excrement there," ""then poo along here, up there, then poo, then poo," ""then a bit of wee, then poo," ""then poo, then wee, then wee" ""and then a poo bar here."" ""And here they come..." "Ahhh..."" ""And what do you think?"" ""This is shit."" "So that didn't happen." "But then, 45,000 years ago, what happened was that there was an ice age, of course, and everything got jolly, jolly cold at the North and South Poles." "Then the sea level goes down to make all that ice, goes down by the height of a 40-storey block of flats." "Residential, office, doesn't really matter." "And so, around the equator, it gets not only hot, it gets super-duper hot." "The people in Africa were saying, "I may be African but I'm getting the fuck out of here."" "And some went up via Egypt into central Asia and some went down through Ethiopia, past the Yemen and down into Australia." "Yemen, my home town." "Yeah, so I am a child of the Middle East." "I look to the East and West like we do with medicine." "The western's very pill driven, the eastern is, er..." "More curious." "Like acupuncture." "I've had acupuncture." "I don't know if you've had it." "I've seen it on telly and they push those needles in." "Obviously, in the body, there's levels of "ow", "ow", "ow"." "And in between "ow" there's "yum" or sponge cake or something." "They seem to push it in the sponge cake bit so it doesn't hurt." "I saw it on telly." "Saw it on The Matrix." "And so I had it cos I had a..." "I have a rotator cuff problem here." "My shoulder's fucked up." "In the rotator cuff, you got four muscles." "Supraspinatus, you got..." "(Mumbling) Ribbaspitartus, er... the long twangy one but they're all blue and red." "You've seen those models." "Except one is green with a white band round it and that's the earth." "And then you tie that in and then you plug your arm into the wall or something like that." "Anyway, so I had acupuncture." "I'd had steroids and that didn't work, so I had acupuncture." "He pushed the needle in and it felt like... a small needle being pushed into my arm." "It's not "ow", it's kind of "ehhh"." "But 30 of them equals "ow!"" "And I couldn't look at it cos it looked like I'd swallowed a hedgehog." "Then I had an mri, where you go into this tube thing." "It's like going into a coffin and a steel band playing on your head." "Then I had a CAT scan and he didn't know what he was doing. (Miaows)" "So I gave it to the dog and there was no way to tell." "But dentistry, we only seem to have western dentistry." "No eastern dentistry, is there?" "There must be eastern stuff but the western is torture." "Still in the torture field." "It's still those two noises, there's... (Alternately imitates whining and rumbling drills)" "Just the dentist talking." "(Alternately gruff and shrill) "Haven't seen you since the other day." ""He's a fine young lad." "Let's drill his face off, shall we?"" "They start softly, softly, catchy monkey, with," ""We'll do an X-ray, we'll put a machine up to your face." ""This is not dangerous at all." "I am just going to go to the Bahamas for a second." ""I've left my cat in the fridge there." "And..." (Burst of noise)" ""No, no, maybe not." "I'll come back." ""What do you say?" "Your face feels a little drippy?" "Well, that's OK." ""Little runny, does it?" "Maybe you're a hunter-gatherer."" "And when they put the X-ray on that thing, that's when it gets..." "Cos we don't know what it looks like." "They just go, "There, that's decay."" ""What, that's my skull, isn't it?" "No, that's..."" ""No, the black bit." "That's my skull." "That's my head."" ""We'll have to drill your head off." We don't know..." "They can say anything." ""You see there, you've lost your nose."" ""What?"" ""You got no teeth." "You're a monkey, basically."" ""What are you on about?" "We're gonna..." Then they start with a bit of pokey-pokey." ""Mirror, mirror, on the wall, which tooth has got to fall?"" "Pokey-pokey-pokey with that pokey thing." "Pokey, pokey, pokey, pokey-pokey." "And then they're doing that code." ""Two, T, L, nine, four, four, seven, T, S, one," ""alpha, charlie, bravo, tango, foxtrot," ""2,000 feet over a monkey's head."" "It all means something." ""First tooth strong, solid."

"You drilled enough!" "You drilled enough!" (Drill straining)" "They become like bad carpenters." "(Staccato whining and rumbling drill noises)" ""Ahhh!" "Ahhh!"" ""Nurse, could you put your finger in his mouth and go..." (lmitates suction)" "(Squealing and whining)" ""Hang on, you haven't got it plugged in, you're just making the noises!"" "(Squealing)" "(Applause)" ""Right, rinse!"" "(lmitates noisy spitting)" ""I'm out of stuff!" ""Where's the button?" "Why do you have to press the fucking button?" ""Why can't I press the button?" ""What's so precious about the red stuff?" ""Just turn it on!"" "It's like they dole that stuff out." "Then he goes, "I've drilled your face off, you've got stumps for teeth," ""I'm gonna screw in some new titanium teeth, screw them in." ""And they're sponsored by the makers of Scrabble." ""They've got letters and numbers on them." ""So there we go." "T op row spelling out 'fantastically'." ""That's 41 points." "Bottom row, 'fuck me baby', 7 1 points." ""If you smile, it should happen."" "Just..." "It's all drilling, there's no invention." ""We've got a better drill, a faster drill." Can't they just make them quiet?" "(Softly) ♪ La la la ♪ It's all..." "You can feel it." "(lmitates whining and rumbling drills)" "All that..." "My dentist said recently - who's a nice guy - he's got a water blower, it blows plaque off your teeth." "Fantastic!" ""But it blows it at the speed of sound and feels like 72 daggers."" "(Whining and squealing)" "One dentist said, "I've got this cream, rub it on, tell me when it hurts."" ""Er..." "That hurts." "Uh...that hurts." "That hurts."" "What is it?" ""This is just a hurty cream, it hurts."" "Who wants to be a..." "♪ Who wants to be... ♪" "A dentist." "I'm going to finish so we can go home." "I'm going to finish up tonight..." "I just wanna mention something on horses." "When I was a kid, I did horse riding." "As, probably, some of you did." "But I have found out recently that we didn't." "What we experienced was horses doing child wearing." "It's true." "There's footage of it on a documentary called What Horses Do." "The horse is going, "Yes, I've joined a stable, they provide you with children," ""they have their own straps." ""And you go up the hills, eat the grass, just trit-trot around, nothing fast." ""The kids exercise your neck and tickle your ribs and you can bite their feet." ""You come back, they remove the children" ""and they burn them, I believe." ""Or some of them they take to aeroplanes and make cry with forks."" "That's what..." "I couldn't get this fucking horse going! "Come on, fucking go!"" "Clip, clop..." "That wasn't a Western to me, with my black bobble hat on." "Steve McQueen was never in a black bobble hat with a yellow roll-neck jumper." "I wasn't cool, I looked like a dickhead." "I wanted danger, the wind in my hair!" "Not the wind in my black bobble hat." "Crappest hat in the world." "Going along like that, I hated it." "Fox-hunting!" "Big fox-hunting thing." "There's arguments about it." "They hunt the foxes because they attack chickens and posh people have an alliance with chickens, just like in the First World War." "If chickens get invaded by foxes..." "Cos they go to the same clubs." ""Yes, I know..." (Clucks)" ""Yes, I went there it was very sunny." ""You lost your head?" "How did you get on?" "(Clucks) "Really?" "That's very funny."" "Don't even have to do a punch line." "Anyway, they charge along. (lmitates bugle)" "They find the fox - "Mr Fox, how would you like to be culled?"" ""Lethal injection would be safest and most painless."" ""How about being ripped apart by dogs?" "I'd really rather not."" "(Yelling and squealing)" "And they get the dead fox and get the small children and go...blub-blub-blub..." ""There you go, Johnny, rub your face in the dead bloody body."" ""Thank you, Father." "I will never be fucked up by this." "Uhhh..."" "(Slurring) "Never fucked in any way, I hope," ""to grow up to be a member of the aristocracy" ""and not be odd at all."" "But horses, they're trained by people, people with whips." ""Walk on!" "Walk on!" "Come by, ooh la-la!" "Hind-ah, hund-ah!"" "Sheep dogs as well. "Come by!"" "Or horse whisperers, you've heard of those, very touchy-feely." "From the - "There boy, there boy." ""There, there."" "(Whispering gibberish)" "The horse is going, "What?" "I can't quite hear."" "(Whispers) "I said, why don't you come..."" "(Gibberish)" ""No, I still can't..." "Could you speak up?"" "Horse whisperers are on to a loser, horse shouters are better." ""Walk on!" "Walk forwards!" "You, walk forwards!" ""Stop!" "Stop..." "Stop there or I shoot you..." ""with gun."" "Anyway, with all this horse training, I got cast in a Western last year." "Cast in a bloody Western."

""You good at riding?" "You should see me ride." ""No."" "So I was in a French Western, it's called Blueberry, it's out in Paris." "I'm a German cowboy." "It's English speaking." "It's like spaghetti western, it's a baguette-i western." "That's the similarity." "It's not supposed to be funny." "So next thing I know I'm in Mexico, three months on horses, first day - me, Michael Madsen, Mexican actor called Antonio, on horses." "And I'm going, "I could be trit-trotting like this."" ""I'm a big bad-ass." And they say, "Go!"" "Clink-clink." "Stupid hat on." "Clink-clink." "I thought, "I'd better make sure, give the horse a kick."" "Got spurs on, thought I'd give him a bit of..."

"Antonio's horse is the other way round." "I thought, "He's either brilliant on a horse...or he's not."" "So they go, "OK, action!"" "La la la, blah blah blah." ""Chiricahua!" "We must get out of here." ""Head for those mountains." "Here we go!" "Ha!"" "(lmitates jet engine)" "About 1 60 miles an hour." "(Jet noise continues)" "I was not trying to touch him with the spurs, I was riding like this." "This was a huge Mexican horse." "Can't hear "cut", can't hear anything." "This horse going..." "It's in the north of Mexico, he's off to the US border." "Then we're at the US border. "Hey, hold it!"" ""I can't..." "Where were you born?"" ""Yemen!" "Hang on."" "Then I remember - turn him in a circle, that slows them down." ""Fuck."" "Canadian border! "You can't..." "Hang on!"" "I've got a gun." ""Fuck."" "Then I remember sharks." "Then I see the fire brigade." "Into the fire brigade house!" "Up the slidey pole!" "Whee!" "And I made my escape from the horse." "The only way to do it." "Anyway, that is all from me here tonight in Eastbourne." "Thank you very much for being here." "(Cheering)" "It's good to be back." "Thank you." "Basically, I'm doing a very slow striptease." "(Whooping and whistling)" "Yes!" "Stripper libraries, that's what we want." "People don't go to libraries but if there was a stripper library, kids would go." ""I'd like a book on...on anything."" ""How about the Etruscans?" "Yeah, the Etruscans, elephant book." ""They have big tusks." ""Fucking hell." ""Where's she gone?" "I was gonna give her a quid." ""Gonna put a quid coin in her G-string."" "(Clunking)" "Anyway." "How far can we go with Eastbourne?" "I've never been to a strip club but I've heard that people put clothes on." "I'm not sure." "Um..." "All right." "T o finish up, I'm gonna do my latest bad impression." "My impressions are incredibly bad, they've been known throughout China..." "Good impressionists do a voice and you go," ""Steve McQueen, Robert De Niro."" "I tend to tell everyone who I'm gonna do, to help, and explain that it might not sound like them." "This is Christopher Walken as done by someone else." "I did A Day In The Death Of Joe Egg and Michael Gaston was in that and he had done Shakespeare with Christopher Walken."
