CheapShow - Ep 322: Live from The Leicester Comedy Festival 2023

Episode Date: March 3, 2023

For some strange reason, Paul and Eli have decided to take CheapShow out of London and perform a live show at The Leicester Comedy Festival. Recorded on Sat 25th Feb at The Firebug Bar in Leicester, t...he Cheap Chaps bring their usual rude, rowdy and unruly antics to the horror of a real, live audience! They are also joined by comedian and CheapShow alumni Tom Mayhew who will probably regret coming the moment he sets foot on stage. It’s (almost) an hour of mad rants, unusual Moog tunes, Price of Shite items and even some visual gags that don’t quite translate to an audio format! A typical noisy s***show! Luckily, we filmed it too, you don’t need to miss out on the action and pointless visual material!

Starting point is 00:10:07 I know. I think you did. Anyway, we've got a lot of fun for you coming up in the show today. What have we got? What have we got coming up? In the song, I explained it. Very clearly in the song.
Starting point is 00:10:18 I think it was very obvious what we're getting up to. We're going to start with Silverman's Platter. Ah. Good. Can I show them? Oh. Good. Can I show them? Oh, yeah. Can I show them? Very quickly, we had a few hours today, so we were going around with the charity shops. Very good. Different from London prices, isn't it?
Starting point is 00:10:34 Cos you go in and you get a little mug and it's, like, £7 from a place in London. This place, 50p. Oh, we're living in a magical world. But, Eli, what? Look what you got. Look at this. What's he called? Spunky Edward.
Starting point is 00:10:47 What's he called? It's a Toby joke. Old Mac or something. Old Mac. Stingy Jean. She's just a girl who thinks that I am the one. No, that's Billie Jean. Oh, right.
Starting point is 00:11:00 This is Stingy Jean. Look, you could get... I mean, it could... Anyway, this was really good. It was a quid, and we've looked online, and it's 20 quid online for this. No, no, no. And it's mint on card.
Starting point is 00:11:14 It's crazy prices up here. It's not mint on card. Absolutely crazy prices. You could fill it with spunk. It is a cup, and it's got a spout. Spunk spout. Why would you need to dish out spunk after it's filled the receptacle?
Starting point is 00:11:32 There's all sorts of reasons why you'd have to do that. To skip around the garden and drip it in like this as you go. Huh? Well done, that's definitely a character we do. Mate, can I do one piece of hack stand-up thing? Yeah. And sleep.
Starting point is 00:11:49 Why would you do that? I like doing it. I hate when you do that. I always have. I hate when you exist on a daily basis. Your ongoing existence makes my cock sad. Don't. You're doing it all again.
Starting point is 00:12:00 The tropes. Just exist for a moment. Let's just exist for a moment. Let's just exist for a moment. Here, open wide. Oh, Eli's dribble. All spunk in your mouth. I got these. I got looking annuals from the past.

Starting point is 00:15:09 Yeah, you enjoy yourself. Can we just do the next bit, please? Plump, clam, pam. No, you've ruined it. You've ruined the moment there. Good, I thought that was the magic. So, Tom, what we're going to do tonight is we're going to do a kind of different Silverman's Platter. Eli likes moog.
Starting point is 00:15:32 Actually, it's pronounced moog. It's not, it's moog, yeah. Yeah, even he said, I don't give a fuck what you call it. Who, Mr Moog? Mr Moog. Yeah, but you call him Mr Moog. Yeah, because he's Mr Moog.
Starting point is 00:15:43 You don't mess with Mr Moog. You don't mess with Mr Moog. You don't mess with Mr Moog. Okay, I won't. All. Moog. Yeah, because he's Mr. Moog. You don't mess with Mr. Moog. You don't mess with Mr. Moog. You don't mess with Mr. Moog. Okay, I won't. All right, good. Have you heard of Sabotnick? Who? Sabotnick.
Starting point is 00:15:51 He's another synth pioneer. Is he one of your characters? It could be. Oh, my name is Sabotnick. He's a real guy. He's a real guy, Sabotnick. And he developed an early synth just like Moog did. Hang on.
Starting point is 00:16:05 Mention him. Thank you for that, Eli. We're going to carry on. So we've got four tracks for you, the all Moog tracks, right? All we want you to do is listen to the track and tell me what you think the cover is. If you think you know out there, we'll be asking you to chip in. Not the cover.
Starting point is 00:16:19 He's not being very clear. That's not like Paul at all. Jesus. Let me just update that garbled mishmash that came out of his silly mouth. It is silly, yeah. It's really silly, your mouth. You need to be careful about which side you pick. Professionally and from a friendship point of view as well.
Starting point is 00:16:39 Because if you want to side with him, I'm not going to stop you. But I will destroy you. Inside and out. How? Exactly. I don't know. You don't know. I can't think of anything witty that isn't offensive.
Starting point is 00:16:54 Like chlamydia. Look, when you... Wait, what? Hold on, what? I don't know. We need to skip through this because we're already running late. We're running out of time. Just one little tip.
Starting point is 00:17:03 When you go blank like that and you can't think of anything on stage, just think of, like, I don't know, an adjective. And then think of someone's name. Fishy. And then John or something. Fishy John. There we go. Hello, I'm Fishy John.
Starting point is 00:17:17 Yay! I can't fucking believe it. So, I will explain it. Quickly. There are four versions of songs, famous numbers, popular standards, which have been rendered in the format of... Oh, yeah, this is much clearer, Eli.
Starting point is 00:17:34 No, it actually is. But it actually is, Paul. Moog. Moog versions of songs. You just have to guess what the song is. It's that simple. Here's the first one we've got for you. It's from a album called Country Moog,
Starting point is 00:17:46 switched on Nashville. And I had to delete the answer because it was on the album cover. So now it says Fog My Mug. But here is what we want you to listen to. Hope you can listen at home as well. Come on, you know it. Paul, do you know it yet? I'll give you a clue.
Starting point is 00:18:18 Er, is it... Is it the Paul does a camp dance song? I don't know. I could do interpretive dance as well. Well, that was good. I thought I liked that. Right, what was that song? It's easy to say I can do it on an audio podcast. Yeah, that's true, but I'm not consistent.
Starting point is 00:18:46 What song was that? What was that? I have no fucking clue, mate. What was it supposed to be? You don't know what that was? Does anyone in the audience think they know? No. What?
Starting point is 00:18:56 A fucking great feature, lads. Jesus, we're telling you. All right, yeah, we'll do it. Hang on one sec. I'm just going to do a... All right, here we go. Imagine he's bald. Patting the bald man on the head. Imagine he's bald.
Starting point is 00:19:20 Sexually assaulting Paul. Paul is terrifying. Imagine he's like a big... Yay! It's Yackety Sax! But on Moog. Oh, that one I definitely know. You know, the Benny Hill thing. Yeah, okay.
Starting point is 00:19:39 Yackety Moog Sax! I didn't have time to do a nice graphic so I just used a post-it note. That's good, yeah. Yeah, it's nice. Next track. Oh. This is from Go Moog.
Starting point is 00:19:52 Smash it, synthesizer style, three exclamation marks. Look, it's a coconut with a Moog inside it. Yeah. And I've once again edited the answer, so now it says Momo Pachooey. Back off, Boogaloo. Right, here's the track. What is this? Oh, mother!
Starting point is 00:20:19 Oh, mother! This feels like a bad fever dream at the moment, to be honest. I don't quite know what's going on. I don't know. Oh, it faded out just before the chorus. No, I don't know. Does the audience know? Does the audience know?
Starting point is 00:20:36 Wig Wampum is the correct answer. I don't know that song. I don't know that song. Can I just ask a question, Tom? When were you born again? 91. Yeah, he's not going to know any of these fucking songs at all. These are all from the 70s.
Starting point is 00:20:48 Yeah, there we go. Wig, wham, bam. Who did wig, wham, bam? I think it was like a 60s... You don't even know! You do not even know! Does anyone know? Sweet.
Starting point is 00:20:57 Sweet. It's a lovely story about an indigenous American girl chatting up a man. And she says, wig, wham, bam, I'm going to chatting up a man. And she says, like she goes, wig-wam-bam, I'm going to make you my man. Wam-bam-bam, I'm going to catch you if I can. Wig-wam-bam, I'm going to make you understand. Try a little touch, try a little too much. Just try a little wig-wam-bam.
Starting point is 00:21:18 OK. Completely inappropriate. But if I was chatting you up and I went, wig-wam-bam, would you be turned on? What about you? Wigwam bam. Yeah, that works, actually, yeah. It's quite good.
Starting point is 00:21:33 No, you've already tried it on me. Paul, I thought I made it clear. Wigwam bam. Yay! Guaranteed sex machine. Next one. This one comes from Switched on Moog. The Moog Machine. What's a Moog machine, Eli?
Starting point is 00:21:54 A Moog machine is a synthesiser. LAUGHTER I mean, he's not wrong. It doesn't say Moog... Oh, it says Switched on... This is the thing they do with all of these Moog, these sort of easy listening Moog records. It's always Switched On. That's code for Moog.
Starting point is 00:22:14 Right. Trendy. Like Switched On Bach. Yeah. Switched On Gas Cooker. Yeah. Switched On Telly. No, it's usually a type of music after the Switched On bit. Switched On gas cooker. Yeah. Switched on telly. No, it's usually a type of music after the switched on bit.
Starting point is 00:22:27 Switched on telly. Switched on radio. That's music, isn't it? Yeah, it could be, yeah. Switched on stereo. Yes. Try and think of a genre of music. I can't.
Starting point is 00:22:39 Like switched on classical. Switched on classical. Switched on pop. Switched on pop. Switched on bubblegum pop. Switched on classical. Switched on classical. Switched on pop. Switched on pop. Switched on bubblegum pop. Switched on pop. Top boss mod. Wigwam bam.
Starting point is 00:22:53 Right, anyway, here is the track we want you, Tom, to identify. Switched on rock, man. Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes. Oh, fucking hell! Oh, yeah! Oh, no! Is... Now, that's a very good clue, despite obvious first impressions.
Starting point is 00:23:23 Oh! Oh, fucking hell. You're right. I've never before... It's Bruce Forsythe. I've never before felt that Eli should be on TikTok till now, but... What have you got? What do you think?
Starting point is 00:23:41 I don't know, mate. You have no clue? Does anyone else know out here, then? Jumping Jack Flash, mate! Jumping Jack Flash, mate! I wasn't bored, mate. Jeez. Oh, so what?
Starting point is 00:23:54 You don't know any pop culture past 1990, then? No, famously not, no. Do you know Terminator? What? Oh, he's a lost cause. Switched on Terminator. Do you like Ben 10? Yes, I love it.
Starting point is 00:24:07 Yeah, he knows Ben 10. Right. What's Ben 10? I love Ben 10. He's a kid of a watch and shit. He has a watch and he can turn into anything. It's like Green Lantern, but with a watch, basically. Is he green?
Starting point is 00:24:18 Yeah. He's a bit green. He's a bit green. Green behind the ears because he's only a little lad, but he's on big adventures weekly on Cartoon Network. Is that a thing? Shut up. When you're born and you're a little baby...
Starting point is 00:24:31 I'm not interested in having a conversation about Ben 10. Are you green behind the ears? Is that even a thing? Yeah, green behind the ears means you're young and a novice at something. Yeah? Are you having a moment where you're... Yeah, not green, you fucking... I'm wondering, green behind the ears? What are you talking about?
Starting point is 00:24:50 You're dead when you're green behind the ears. You're a fucking corpse, Paul. Yeah, Paul... Thank you, Jesus Christ. Fuck me. I'm thinking I'm going mad here. You are. I think I've chosen my side, mate.
Starting point is 00:25:04 I think I'm going to go with Eli on this. Come over. Come over to the side. I don't blame you. He's treading on thin water over there, man. And the last one comes from the maestro, Wendy Carlos. This is a collection of classical things and pop hits that have been renewed for the Moog generation and
Starting point is 00:25:25 this is the track you're gonna have to guess it's the best one yet Oh, is it What's New Pussycat? Yeah! You've got it! Petwing! Petwing! One Petwing for the guest. I mean, I only know it because it was a mid-90s sitcom,
Starting point is 00:25:58 The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air. Oh, no, fair enough. I don't mind how you know. The fact you know has saved your reputation for the sake of this show. Did they do a version of it on the Fresh Prince of Bel-Air? Yeah, this is the pussycat. All about how it clanged onto my face last night and then it rubbed a little bottom on the top of my nose
Starting point is 00:26:15 and that's why I've got shit on my clothes. Dum-ch-ch-ch, dum-dum-ch. In West Croydon, I wasn't born. Liverpool closer, but that's a bit boring. West Croydon? I don't born. Liverpool closer, but that's a bit boring. West Croydon? I don't know. I mean, I bloody love that. I'll be honest, mate. I was doing all Eminem
Starting point is 00:26:32 8 Mile then. You know, I was rapping. I was dis-rapping. Eli with your hat. It's blue as your balls. I can't believe you go outside without being told you're a Paul Ling. It's good stuff. Do you mean blue balls or do you mean wet balls? That's what I want to...
Starting point is 00:26:47 He's a bit blue behind the balls is what I'm getting at, alright? Ladies and gentlemen, it is time to move on. Green balls ball, green balls. Green balls. We've got half an hour and two hours worth of content to do, so let's get through this.
Starting point is 00:27:03 Okay. Ladies and gentlemen, it's that time of the night where we go from one segment to another, and this segment you know very well. It is The Price of Shite. Please join us in our hymn, Stand Up. Fuck it, why not? Stand up! Stand up if you can, stand up!
Starting point is 00:27:18 For hymn number one. I didn't know we were going to do this. I don't know either. I don't know what we're doing. We're just going to do The Price of Shite, the traditional one. Ready? It's the fucking Price of Shite. It's the fucking Price of Shite.
Starting point is 00:27:34 It's the fucking Price of Shite. Oh, it's the fucking Price of Shite. That's right. That's right, everybody. Betwing's in the house. Betwing's going to come down. They're going to be raining. Raining Betwings.
Starting point is 00:27:51 This is your chance, mate, to get loads of Betwings. I'm telling you. Yes, instead of payment, we're sending you home with Betwings tonight. They're worth their weight in gold. They're like NFTs. But as worthless and as risky to your livelihood to have them. weight in gold. They're like NFTs. But it's worthless and it's risky to your livelihood to have them. So we're going to play this with the audience
Starting point is 00:28:10 tonight, so you're going to get involved as well. Yeah. Oh, God. Have you just lost energy? Paul, do you know what I've got? I've got one of those Thai Red Bulls.
Starting point is 00:28:26 Proper. It's proper stuff. The ones that the bouncer said you couldn't bring in because they thought it was, like, illegal booze from somewhere. And you're like, no, it's my energy drink. It's my sucker. I need it to exist. I can't get it out of the bag. Mate, forget about it at this point. I need it!
Starting point is 00:28:44 We're not spending five minutes, you drinking red bull. Unit, listen, just get on with it. I'm getting it out of the bag. Right, okay, in that case, I'll get on with it. Fuck. Right, so we're going to play the Price of Shite. Now, what's going to happen is we've got five items on the show today. I think it's actually six.
Starting point is 00:28:59 How many? Six. Okay. We've got six items, and you just have to guess whether the item that comes after is higher or lower than the one you saw before. You get a betwing for every correct one, but if you want, you can double it by guessing the price, and if you're close with all the usual rules, betwings apply. The usual rules are 25p either way, one betwing.
Starting point is 00:29:19 On the nose, two betwings. Yes. Are you ready? As I'll ever be. I mean, I always feel bad for guests on this show because they come here and they go, oh, I should be at home. You know, I should be at home watching rugby.
Starting point is 00:29:37 I don't know what kids do. Right, okay, here's the first item. These are all sorts over the past few weeks from P.O. Boxers and charity shops and multiple and all sorts. But here's the first one. Who should I be with? It's a card game.
Starting point is 00:29:50 Cards to help you identify a good enough love match. Good enough. Good enough because you shouldn't have, you know, fantasies about them being great. They just have to be good enough. It's just good enough. I'm just hoping for a good enough day. Yeah, a good enough day.'s just good enough. I'm just hoping for a good enough day. Yeah, a good enough day. Good enough shit.
Starting point is 00:30:07 No, I mean, that's really on the nose, Paul. I mean, I've smelt it. It has really been on the nose. No, I had the hurty waters today, the terrible hurty waters. Mate, buy it a coffee because I can shit in Costa. It was that kind of a day. It was a terrible, terrible thing.
Starting point is 00:30:23 Fizz pellets. Bar thing. Fizz pellets. Barbed wire fizz pellets. Swimming in the hurty waters. Anyway, so this is by a company that we've had on the podcast before when they did the Dilemma game called The School of Life. They are called The School of Life, yes. Boo. And they have a YouTube channel which is hot garbage. Want to be healthy and happy? Be middle class and well off. Boom. And they have a YouTube channel, which is hot garbage. Want to be healthy and happy?
Starting point is 00:30:47 Be middle class and well off. Yes. Sorted. That's kind of the thing. But these are all... So the idea that this is gamers, you're meant to pull out cards that have signifiers of traits that your potential partner might have,
Starting point is 00:30:58 and it breaks it down into positives and negatives. And you can make a guess on it if you think they're good enough to be a partner. But some of them are found really strange, like this card, hypochondriac. If the person you love is a hypochondriac, will take colds very seriously, pleasures of playing nurse, as imaginative in other areas as they are about germs.
Starting point is 00:31:17 Positives of dating a hypochondriac. What? Negatives, get this, self-absorbed, may in fact die very young. If you don't mind them dying straight away, and you're never allowed to be ill. What? But look, we'll take your colds very seriously. Yeah, it's like, oh, you've got a sniffle, it's the plague. You're never allowed to be ill. So it's not only is it annoying,
Starting point is 00:31:43 it's completely contradicting itself on the same fucking card! Am I allowed to be ill? Oh, oh! Do you see what I'm getting at here? Sadly. We'll take your cold seriously, which implies to me, Paul, that
Starting point is 00:31:59 they'll be taking, that they will be allowing you to be ill! Do you want to make this point for the next ten minutes? I would like to continue with this point. Stop. So the next card. Just randomly thought I'd pick out some cards. Fucking shit. Messy house. Someone who's messy.
Starting point is 00:32:16 They have higher things on their mind. Unbothered by what other people think. Secure and not to need perfection. Vacuuming can wait. Negatives. The fine line between elegant bohemianism and squalor. Outwardly expressive of incompetence. Frightening. What does frightening mean?
Starting point is 00:32:33 I hate this and the people behind it. I hate them. Just randomly picked another card out again. Not so focused on work. Maybe someone you're in a relationship with some way isn't very focused on work. Can't think of anyone myself. Fuck off.
Starting point is 00:32:48 Healthy recognition that not much else matters. Rounded. Hold. Fuck off. More time for you. However, negatives. They are jealous of your ambitions. Disguise their laziness as a sincere protest against capitalism.
Starting point is 00:33:01 What? The children may go hungry. I hate our gods! Our gods! Last card. Perverted. An exhilarating disregard for prudish norms, playful and imaginative.
Starting point is 00:33:18 No need to feel shame around them. You know you're unconsciously better than you. Negatives. Could this get out of hand? Might this be a sickness? An occasionally alarming disregard for the rules of civilisation. They're big
Starting point is 00:33:30 statements. But how much? Just this is your first card. This is your first item. So all you've got to do is right now have a rough guess at what you think that price is. Okay. And do the people buying it know they're basically Eli's Tinder profile or not? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:33:45 Okay. I'd say about 75p. Oh, these are London prices. 75p. Who's got... You. Random price. Shout. Two pounds.
Starting point is 00:33:55 I think that's closer. You. Shout. I don't know who I'm looking at. It's dark. You. Glasses lady. Pants.
Starting point is 00:34:02 Pound. Oh, a pound. I thought she was being rude. The price is? Two pounds. Pound. Oh, a pound. I thought she was being rude. The price is? £2.50. Ooh. You need to recalibrate now, mate, if you want the petwings.
Starting point is 00:34:14 No petwings. You need to recalibrate your whole thing, man. Next. That was a word. Next item. It's Eli. Eli, you found this, Eli. What is it? I did, it's here, look. You can see it in person. It's Eli. You found this, Eli. What is it?
Starting point is 00:34:25 I did. It's here, look. You can see it in person. It's a teddy bear. It's a teddy bear. You the man. You the man. You the man.
Starting point is 00:34:33 You the man. That's what he's thinking. I'm the man, because his dad superhero teddy bear is helping him to fly. His teddy bear face. It's a keepsake. What does that mean? Tat. You keep it. For the sake of keeping it It's a keepsake. What does that mean? Tat. You keep it
Starting point is 00:34:45 for the sake of keeping it. I don't know. What does that mean? Keepsake. It's got a real Fathers for Justice energy, this. It really does, mate. I think it's a Father's Day gift.
Starting point is 00:34:58 It's like, you can always imagine this with a big banner by London Bridge, can't you? It's that kind of vibe. But I need to know, Tom, is this higher or lower in price than the card game? Do you think this is higher or lower than the cards?
Starting point is 00:35:16 The shitty teddy. I mean, it's tinged with sadness, so I'm going to say lower. Lower, okay. Just give us a shout if you think lower. Lower, go with I. I. And higher, say I. Lower. Okay. Just give us a shout. If you think lower, go aye. Aye. And higher, say aye.
Starting point is 00:35:28 Aye. I thought, what are you doing? Getting the audience reaction. Yeah, but you said higher or higher, didn't you? Just there. I said higher or lower, say aye. Aye. From the bottom of the bag to the bottom of the drum.
Starting point is 00:35:39 Don't stop. Everybody else say aye. Aye. Red box. Now there's a fucking reference. Eat that, pop aye. Aye. Red box. Now, there's a fucking reference. Eat that, pop culture. Right, is it higher or lower than the £2.50 cards, Tom? Do you want to have a guess at the price before we reveal it?
Starting point is 00:35:52 This is your chance for your first between. Come on, it's a binary. It's a bloody binary, mate. A quid. A quid? You're saying a quid? Yeah. So you're saying lower?
Starting point is 00:36:02 He says lower already. He's already said lower. But I'm asking for a bonus between. Does he want to guess the price? You said a quid for a bonus between. That's all right, yeah. Yeah. So you're saying lower? He says lower already. He's already said lower. Oh, he's already said... I can't... But I'm asking for a bonus per twing. Does he want to guess the price? You said a quid for a bonus per twing. That's alright, yeah. Yeah. I mean, you've failed, but it's fine. Here we go. Is it higher or lower?
Starting point is 00:36:17 It's lower! Bloody hell! Piss! It's 150! I mean, frankly, you failed if you paid that for it, mate. Jesus Christ. Listen, I'm dedicated to this show, Paul. You are. Actually, you failed if you paid that for it, mate. Jesus Christ. Listen, I'm dedicated to this show, Paul. You are. Because you've got nothing else going on in your life.
Starting point is 00:36:33 Don't R him. This is not a fucking panto. Every fucking live show at some point. You never learn, though, do you? You bunch of bastards call me a fucking criminal. It's disgusting. You never learn, though, do you? You bunch of bastards call me a fucking criminal. It's disgusting. You never learn.
Starting point is 00:36:46 Next item, Tom. You're doing all right. That's one between. We've got one between. One between. Between. Thank you. Next item.
Starting point is 00:36:53 Oh, it's a Money Bank TV made of shit. There's a lot of porcelain and ceramicware on this episode, isn't there? It's what we like. Two ceramic items in a row, and this is a fake television. Yeah, just for coins. Showing the test card there. And just to give you an idea of what this does, beep!
Starting point is 00:37:16 Go to bed, Spotty. Young ones reference. Right. He was born in the 90s. So, it's a shit thing. It's got no gimmicks. It's just a shit square TV made of clay, painted, put money in. Is it higher or lower, Tom, than the item you've just seen?
Starting point is 00:37:33 Remember, it was £1.50. £1.50, higher or lower? Higher or lower? Higher or lower? Marvellous. Reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh, reh Higher or lower?

Two quid. Two quid. What was the impression of him? I was just being... You were doing an impression of that person.
Starting point is 00:38:29 You, how much? 75 pence. 75 pence! Right. Was that an impression of him? Yeah. I didn't know we were doing impressions of our audience who've come all this way and paid good money.
Starting point is 00:38:41 Well, you started it, you prick! I'm lovely. Look, stop with the violence! It's no violence! It is, it's implied, Well, you started it, you prick! I'm lovely. Look, stop with the violence! It's no violence! It is, it's implied though, isn't it? I know Tom's cowering at the side of the stage clicking to the wall. We're both here, we're both scared of what you might do.
Starting point is 00:38:54 Right. Here we go. Is it higher or lower than £1.50? Tom said higher. Tom said higher? Tom said higher. £1.75. Oh!
Starting point is 00:39:06 Bad luck. £1.75. Oh, £1. Oh, dear. Bad luck. No. Right, next item. Boop. Oh, look at these. You've got little droids there.
Starting point is 00:39:21 I got these for mine in Camden. They're in a big box. You could buy three of them for one price. How much is the... I don't understand what these are. Darth Maul and June? They're like cock warmers. They're like you could put...
Starting point is 00:39:34 One on each bollock and one on the end of your cock. That's R2-D2. That's Darth Maul and that's Blinky Blonky. What's this one? Blinky Blonky? Blinky Blonky.
Starting point is 00:39:43 BB8. BB8, thank you. Blinky Blonky. Blinky Blonky, of course. BB8. Blinky Blonky Blinky Blonky BB8 BB8 thank you Blinky Blonky Blinky Blonky of course BB8 Blinky Blonky 8 is the character's name
Starting point is 00:39:51 is there anyone who's mates with Luke Walky Walk as well are they all just no so three of them
Starting point is 00:39:59 but one price how much festival higher or lower than the TV do you think because I would have thought three for a quid But maybe they're a bit more
Starting point is 00:40:06 So maybe I'll go I'll go higher, I think they're going to be three for two quid 52 quid? No, three for two quid Three for two quid If they're 52 quid, then fucking hell mate, you've really lost it Higher, he says Two quid
Starting point is 00:40:21 Locking it into my databanks Have you given up already? I'm not giving up. I'm just... Why are you hobbiting on the side of the stage, then? With your special mead? Don't say I'm hobbiting. No, that's not a verb.
Starting point is 00:40:33 Well, you are hobbiting. To hobbit is not a verb. It's a... Well, stop hobbiting, then, and I'll stop saying that you're a hobbit. Anyway. Stop cunting. How about that, Paul?
Starting point is 00:40:43 Give us a cheer if you think it's higher. Give us a cheer if you think it's higher Give me a shout if you think it's lower Oh, we're so sad So you said higher and you said £2 for the lot But let's find out £4 Fucking what? £4 But you do get a between for saying higher
Starting point is 00:41:03 So that's two betweens How are the three items four quid? That would make them £1.33 recurring each, wouldn't it? There's something up with this. There's no one puts 33 in a third recurring as an actual price. Do they? I put it to you
Starting point is 00:41:18 that you've done some rounding one way or another on this. Alright, fucking Columbo. What happened was, it was meant to come to £4.50 and she went, right, fucking Columbo. It's just, what happened was, it was meant to come to 4.50, and she went, ah, four quid then. Like that. Why?
Starting point is 00:41:30 You were haggling in a charity shop. No, she just said four quid then. You disgust me. I didn't do nothing. You were like, knock off 50p. Go on. I'll break your legs on stage and have you crawl home.
Starting point is 00:41:43 You will break my legs? On stage? I'll hobbit you like in Misery. That's hobble, you twat. Yeah, not hobbit. Hobble. I will hobbitly hobble you like Misery. I'll go full Kathy Bates on you. Okay.
Starting point is 00:41:58 Yeah. Right, next item. You've got two betwings. You're doing all right. Next item is the Spitting Image giant comic book. Ooh. Ooh. I just want to go through a few pages very briefly.
Starting point is 00:42:13 I like this one because it's 80s politics. Look, there's Kinnock, and he's Welsh, you see, and he talks like very boring Welsh. Great satire coming out of this. It's basically like an annual, like, viz, but with spitting image characters and writers involved in it. How to make yourself look like Ronald Reagan. Squeeze your face.
Starting point is 00:42:31 Squeeze your face. And also be a psychopath helps as well, a doddery psychopath. And then Dr. Owen, was he in the SDP? Whatever that was. Yeah, and he's lonely. Oh, because he was only a small party. And that reaction from them is the exact reaction I got from reading the comic strip. But these are the ones all, look, the fat
Starting point is 00:42:50 chats. And it's like Brucie and Tarby and Bruce. Hello there, Terry. Hello. Hello there, Brucie. Welcome to the show. You know Kenny and Tarby. Hello, Tarby. Welcome to the show. I can't remember the voices. Tarby, Terry. And then they go can't remember the voices. Tarby, Terry,
Starting point is 00:43:05 and then they go golf and then they're all in bed. I would have liked to see a representation of some of their penises. Who do you think's got the biggest plonker out of Terry Wogan? Kenny Lynch. Brucey, man.
Starting point is 00:43:21 No, he's got a reputation. For what? I've never heard of Brucey, man. Brucey. No, he's got a reputation. For what? Having a... I've never heard of Brucey having a particularly long penis. Higher, lower. He can control it. Higher, darling. You get nothing for a game, not for a pair in this game or something. I knew I could get him started on this.
Starting point is 00:43:40 I'm just sitting here doing this on the stage, mate. Higher. I guarantee he said that in the bedroom, higher or lower, every time. Do you want to bet on it? You bet. What else did he do? What else did Brucey do? Generation gain. Die? Er... Nothing for repair.
Starting point is 00:44:02 Nothing for repair and the air, etc. The Fat and Useless, which is their spoof of Linkin Park. Nothing for a pair. Nothing for a pair and the air, etc. The Fat and Useless, which is their spoof of Little and Large. But actually, this is quite a good joke. Little and Large, the secret to great comedy is timing. That's right, timing. Oh, no, my dog's got no nose. How does it smell? They die. Stage door. Grave. Terrible! That's terrible. they die stage door
Starting point is 00:44:25 grave terrible that's terrible it is and finally maybe my favourite one Noel Edmonds speaking look at his
Starting point is 00:44:37 little robotic terribly psychopathic face it's like someone took the killer from the movie Valentine and gave him
Starting point is 00:44:43 an afternoon TV show it's just about him going on about TV and breakfast and in the afternoons and in quiz shows and in commercials and more game shows and chat shows and charity appeals and on and on and on. And then he says, oh, I have no talent. And then for some reason, a man with a gun just says, have a late breakfast in Valhalla, Noel, and just offloads his rifle into it.
Starting point is 00:45:04 Which seems to be a bit harsh, even for Noel. late breakfast in Valhalla, Noel, and just offloads his rifle into it. Which seems to be a bit harsh, even for Noel. I think that's, isn't that like a sort of pastiche of those war comics the guy looks like? Maybe. He's in black and white as well, so I think he's come from another part of the sort of comic metaverse. And it's not
Starting point is 00:45:21 Noel, it's Noly. He's saying Noly, mate. Noly. Oh, in Valhalla,, it's Noly. He's saying, Noly, mate. Noly. Oh, in Valhalla, Noly. Noly. It's still not what I was expecting the last panel of this to be. It's a frame-breaking device. Like, is he, like, a time-travelling soldier who has to travel through time killing all the... Like a Terminator...killing all the talentless presenters of their day?
Starting point is 00:45:38 Noel Edmonds. Yes? Pfft! Rise of the machines! Rise of the machines Rise off the machines No, just like the idea of Noel Edmonds Like being on the floor going no, no, no And then a blobby comes in Ten minutes left of the show
Starting point is 00:46:01 Right, so I mean, the simplest of ways you went Ten minutes left, Eli,. Right, so... I mean, the simplest of ways, you went, ten minutes left, Eli, Jesus. I want to keep it subtle. Ten minutes left of the show. Wow. So, Spitting Image, the giant comic book. It's actually a lovely little thing.
Starting point is 00:46:15 But how much did it cost? Ah. How much did it cost? Oxfam in Muscle Hill. What's the between count? Two between so far. Did it come with the three? Well, he's got that one between from before, though.
Starting point is 00:46:27 Yeah, two. He's got two betwings. No, he's got one from before, though. Oh, so three all in. On aggregate. Three from the Moog thing. All right, no. Did it come with the three sensational spitting image face masks?
Starting point is 00:46:38 Well, I'll show you, because I've got it in here. I was meant to pull the props out, but fuck it. Yeah, it comes with face masks that you can cut out. Oh, okay. Oh, that's good. It's nice. Mint on card. You can be the queen, and then whoever that man is,
Starting point is 00:46:55 and then a big pair of glasses. Well, it's got to be lower than four quid. I'm going to say definitely lower. Lower than four quid? And what the price? What the price? Maybe a quid? A quid? Wait, how many? What the price? How many books? Maybe a quid? A quid?
Starting point is 00:47:06 Wait, how many were there? Just the one book. There it is. It's there. Yeah, it's there. It's just the one book. Yeah, I'll say a quid. Yeah, all right, a quid.
Starting point is 00:47:16 But lower for a quid. Do you think higher or lower than four pounds? Higher? Higher. Lower? Lower. There's the mouth noise, everybody. Glad you spotted it.
Starting point is 00:47:29 Next. So the price was... £3. Poor blimey dog shit, £3. So that means you've got another between for being correct on lower. But now it's time for the final item. And I need to get this one out, because this one involves some activity. This is something I got in a toy shop
Starting point is 00:47:47 called Ultra Dash The Race Is On. And basically, it's like a can of Relays, with a stick, and you get these yellow... You get these pods, and you've got to stamp them in the pot. Oh, he's been going on about this, ladies and gentlemen. And he's trying to incorporate it into everything. Every single thing we've done,
Starting point is 00:48:06 he wants to do that. Paul. Those clown school, that clown school course is really paying off for years now. Who wants to live forever? LAUGHTER LAUGHTER Paul, we've only got about three minutes.
Starting point is 00:48:35 We've got plenty of time. Keep doing this. Shut up, I need to get this out. Keep doing this, by all means. Shall I fill in? Shall I fill in now? This is good, this stuff, guys. In the Vietnamese shop across from the job centre in Tottenham, they always, when I buy this, the shop owners always go, you like this? This is good, isn't it? And I go,
Starting point is 00:49:00 yeah. And we have a little conversation about, like, Vietnamese energy drinks. And I feel like a sense of community. Because I bought a juice box the other day when I got these. And it was a juice box. And he had to point out to me, the owner, that it was for children. But I said, I'm going to drink it anyway. I'm going to just drink this.
Starting point is 00:49:24 And it tasted, it was orange. But it tasted, like, going to drink it anyway. I'm going to just drink this. And it tasted... It was orange, but it tasted like weirdly of vanilla. Weird. Weird vanilla orange. Can you imagine that? Weird. Anyway, I'm just going to finish this. Get on with this, by all means. Eli. I forgot to put batteries in it. LAUGHTER AND APPLAUSE Well, we can't do it then.
Starting point is 00:49:45 We can't do it. Shall I continue with the juice box story, though? No. Because what you're meant to do with it, I can't fucking believe I forgot to put batteries in. It's like you press it, and then it lights up a little colour around the top, and then I was going to say, run,
Starting point is 00:49:59 and then if it lit yellow, you'd bosh, and then you'd go to that, like that, and then it would go green, and you'd run up the aisle and get the green one from wherever that was, which I have to now awkwardly collect. Oh, yeah, that would have been a great ending to the show. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:50:12 I was thinking it would be a lovely kind of energetic party-knows-how's-party vibe, wasn't I? Yeah, and now we've got Eli and his juice box story, so... Eli, how many millilitres was this juice box? How many what? Millilitres was this juice box? How many what? Millilitres was in the juice box. It was one of those quite small ones. Did it have a plastic straw?
Starting point is 00:50:30 It did have a plastic straw, which is unfortunate. And it tasted funny. I was super hungover, though. I just needed liquid. Just needed hot liquid. Not hot liquid. I'd be really worried if it was hot liquid. You've been fucking mugged off there.
Starting point is 00:50:47 I'm sorry, I keep thinking about the hurty water, which is obviously body temperature, so that's why hot liquid. But the thing is, mate, I was really excited because I thought, oh, while they're running, I can do this instead. And then it would be like, oh, Betty, step on your marks.
Starting point is 00:51:01 Go, Tom, go! And then it would be all fun like this. Play the Moog again. on your marks, go Tom go! And then it'll be all fun like this. There he goes. You just have a run around Paul and people seem to be enjoying it anyway. Yeah. So did you finish the carton or? Not quite. Oh my god. That's the noise of Paul's belly. How do you do that? Yakety belly. Are we enjoying it?
Starting point is 00:51:40 No. I'm not touching you. It's weird. You really don't. Stop. You've made your belly all red oh there has to be a limit Paul stop thanks for coming everybody Let's have a round of applause for our guest, Tom Mayhew. We haven't finished the fucking show, you dick splat!
Starting point is 00:52:11 I mean, you did lie down and pretend you were dead, for fuck's sake. Paul, you were on the ground. You were dead. Hitting yourself in the stomach. I was being professional. Jesus, I'm trying. You've got three minutes! Sit the fuck down! You were dead. Hitting yourself in the stomach. I was being professional. Jesus, I'm sorry. You've got three minutes. Sit the fuck down! No-one's going anywhere!
Starting point is 00:52:33 Oh, wow, oh, wow. OK. So, how much was this fucking thing that I got and did nothing but slap my belly on the stage? What? What? How much, Tom? How much, Tom? How much, Tom?
Starting point is 00:52:46 I believe it costs you all of your dignity. Thank you. Why are you putting the microphone to it? As if your belly is going to go, oh, that really hurt. Right, lower or higher than whatever?
Starting point is 00:53:15 I've fucking lost count. I don't fucking know, the same. Higher. Higher, let's do higher. And how much do you think it cost? Say £2.50. £2.49. Oh, fucking hell. £2.50 on the nose. There we go, £2.50. £2.49.
Starting point is 00:53:25 Oh, fucking hell. £2.50 on the nose. There we go, £2.50. So that's two for Twings. So your running total of for Twings for tonight, Tom, is five. Five for Twings. That's very good. That's respectable. It's a good score.
Starting point is 00:53:39 That'll be jotted down and added to our statistics. I think you should have paid a bit more, you know, maybe got some batteries with it. I just want to apologise for tonight. I know you came expecting a rehearsed and slick performance from me and my good self. No, they fucking didn't. Jesus! But as we're running to the end of time, I just wanted to formally apologise and hope that you don't judge us too
Starting point is 00:54:12 harshly for the last hour. All I can say is that we love you dearly. And that Eli is a massive cunt. Other than that, we're good to go. I think we can wrap up now. Yeah, yes, that's what I thought. Other than that, we're good to go. I think we can wrap up now. Yeah, yes, that's what I thought.
