RRichie

What sort of bloke?

Well, he was wearing a scuba-diving outfit, and had a pronounced French accent. I think he may have been a Frogman.

RRichie

A what?

I'm afraid you heard correctly the first time. A Frogman. [to audience] Fuck off, you paid.

RRichie

Aahh, paradise isn't it, Eddie? Beaches, palm trees, bam-BOO. Palm trees, beaches, bam-BOO. Sand, trees, bam-BOO... God, I'm bored. Bored, bloody bored.

[There is a cry from the back of the audience: "Have a wank!"]

We had a wank in the interval. That's what the interval is for. And I bet you had one too, didn't you? 'Cos you look like a wanker!

RRichie

I think my theory holds water.

And what theory is that?

RRichie

That our diet has got something to do with what we eat.

I thought it was your pants that had something to do with what you'd eat.

Well, you were the one who sawed the captain in half.

RRichie

HE was a volunteer.

No, no, HE was trying to stop the show.

RRichie

Well anyway, the trick worked brilliantly! We sawed him in half!

Yeah, I think the essence of the trick is in the joining back together.

RRichie

Details, details. It's in the sawing where the real essence lies, and we accomplished that with panache.

No we didn't, we were hacking away at him for hours!

Oh, I'm gone, man, solid gone.

RRichie

Eddie, will you stop this Disney shite? We're going to get sued to buggery quite apart from eaten to fuck!

[Cardboard Shark Fins are dragged along the front of the stage]

RRichie

Well it just goes to show there's no escape for us that way is there eddie? if we even think to take on the dangers of the-m-mighty pacific (pause and the audience cheer) Fish are fucking frisky tonight! if we even think of taking on the mighty pacific, we'd almost...(audience murmurs) I haven't finished yet! we'd almost certainly trip over a few little bits of wire... (waits for audiences response which is dismal)

Yeeeees...or get a papercut

[Rik Mayall has forgotten his lines]

RRichie

Oh, Eddie!

And whenever you can't remember you go "OH, EDDIE!"

RRichie

Oh, Eddie.

(turns to face Richie) Yes?

RRichie

(panicking) oooooohhhh Eddie...oh, god...(relisation hits him)

(audience cheers)

(cutting off the audience) He probably hasn't got the right one.

RRichie

......Fuck!

[a prop Albatross has broken down at the side of the stage]

RRichie

Behold the mighty Albatross! See it soar, watch it swoop...

Yes. Watch it circle, watch it loop-the-loop, watch it get the fucking prop man sacked!

[a bird's droppings have landed on Eddie's Head]

RRichie

That's lucky, that is!

What that you weren't standing here?

[Audience are laughing as Eddie towels his head]

Well, I'm glad I can amuse you all in my own humble little way. Welcome to sophisticated fucking Bristol. (puts on a Bristol accent) "Ooh, it was fuckin' great, fuckin' seagull shat on 'is 'ead an' we all fuckin' pissed ourselves!"

[The pair are alone in some domed room]

RRichie

Hello?

Hello!

RRichie

No not you!

Maybe I wasn't replying to you.

RRichie

So then, there really is someone else here?

Yeah, I'm afraid so.

RRichie

Who is it?

Its me! Hello!

RRichie

Look out Eddie, Ainsley Harriot is coming down here and he's strapping on a condom!

Quick, Get out of my way! I don't want to be in Ready Steady Fuck!

[Richie is wearing bright pink Underwear]

Where did you get them from?

RRichie

I made them from a pair of washing up gloves. They are marigolds, and they were a little snug to get into. I also haven't been able to get the bastards off for three days. Also the thumb is stuck up my arse!

[Talking about the Parrot]

RRichie

What was that thing he used to say?

Get off, Get off I'm not a sexual animal?

RRichie

No, not that one the other thing?

Oi Richie get me another drink you overweight twat!

RRichie

That's the one.

RRichie

Is Dave attacking that Seagull?

Either that or he's shagging it.

RRichie

No the seagulls attacking him! Now with the left, now the right, that's it Dave that's how you fly away.

Come on Dave, take your coat off! Kick him where it hurts!

RRichie

Ouch! He's kicked himself in the bollocks hasn't he?

Look there go all the seagull's mates, flying off, laughing and with Dave's wallet.

RRichie

Eddie, think back what's the last thing you remember?

Oh I know this, it was you, it was you telling me to "Think back what's the last thing you remember?", it's all coming back to me.
