Welcome to the Peacock and Gamble podcast. Just have a drink, get ready for the new Peacock and Gamble podcast that's coming out and I have a drink to clear my throat. Have we started? Started off nice, a bit informal this week. I am Ray Peacock. Hello. You'd be all one. Hello, I'm Ed Gamble.

All nice and informal. Not even wearing a tie. Just informal week this week because it isn't the Peacock and Gamble podcast this week. Is it not? No. I have come up with a new idea. This week it is called Peacock and Gamble's TV Burp. Right?

And basically it's this idea that I've had, right? Basically, we're just going to talk about the telly. The telly that's been on all week. Okay, now, two problems, I'd say. No, I don't want to hear them. No, two problems. I don't want to hear them. I'm not having you come in here

naysaying when I have had a good idea. Right, can I quickly come up with, not problems, ideas. Opportunities. Ideas for the show. Opportunities, they call it, in sales. You don't probably have an opportunity in sales. Right.

And you are evil. Always be evil, remember that. Right, okay, here we go. Here's my two opportunities, right. Firstly, don't think we're going to be able to do something about the telly when we're on a strictly audio medium. No, you can still talk about it. Secondly, Ariel does this on the telly.

Ariel? Yeah. Mate, that is what the outside of a bosom is called. Of a nipple, I meant. I meant a nipple. I got it. I don't know what you get. Ariel.

I don't know what that is. Harry Hill. No, stop it. It's called TV. Well, look. All right, then. All right. Well, if Ariel, if you've made up

if he does it then sue us right go on sue us if this is your idea dare ya they can't

do you know why because Ariel has got the same management as Ray and Ed yeah but so they would have to sue themselves they would have to go

and here's the thing as well I've got some music for it as well right get ready this is it da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da

right that is the music that's the music I know then they will have to sue themselves so welcome to TV Burp I am Ari

oh shit no I am I am Ray Peacock welcome to TV Burp I am Ed Gamble or, welcome to TV Burp. I am Ed Gamble or not? Oh, Ray and Ed Gamble, but which one is the best? There's only one way of finding that out, isn't there?

Kiss. No. Welcome to the show. On telly this week, thing happened on EastEnders. Put a clip on. Put a clip on. How are you getting... Shut up. This is another opportunity.

This is on live. Listen, this is not on live. How are we getting the money to pay for the clips from EastEnders? We don't need... Tape it off telly. It's on free. We need to get the rights for it.

No, we don't because it is audio. So we'll just turn the sound down right and play the clip alright well let's act it out ourselves is what I'm saying no there's no point in that because then the funny thing

is the funny thing of the show alright fine carry on what's on the programme otherwise we will make it funny ourselves alright no

do your programme I've lost my thread now I do want to talk about telly in real life alright because I've been watching a lot of telly this week. Yeah.

You know for TV Bert for my job. It's been a weird telly week I think. You've just shown me one thing that has been on telly. The seance, the

Michael Jackson seance. The Michael Jackson seance. Absolutely amazing. For those people who don't know this there was a seance

on Sky. Sky 1 I think it was on. Sky 1? Yeah. Which was Derek Okora the popular medium. Did a seance where he. Sky 1 I think it was on. Sky 1? Yeah. Which was Derek Okora, the popular medium. Did a seance

where he contacted the spirit of Michael Jackson. Ask me if I am a medium. Are you a medium? Nope. What were we even talking about here? Michael Jackson seance? Yeah. So he did, he contacted the spirit of Michael Jackson. Yeah, thank God for that. Yeah, I mean that was a relief. It did turn up on the night. Not even on the Teflon or anything.

On the night. The thing is, as as well it's also massively plausible even if you're not one of those mentally ill people that believes in the spirit world and believes in god and that if you're not mentally ill the thing is they combined the two most mentally ill things possible the people who believe in ghosts and contacting spirits and michael jackson fans well just fans full stop no i'd say michael jackson fans are the pinnacle of the mentally ill fans yeah absolutely and contacting spirits and Michael Jackson fans. Well, just fans, full stop. It's not just Michael Jackson fans. No, I'd say Michael Jackson fans are the pinnacle of the mentally ill fans. Do they really?

Yeah, absolutely. Do they? Yeah. Or based on the programme we've just watched? Based on the programme we've just watched and, I mean, they've been through a lot as fans. Yeah, they have, haven't they? And to still be there at the end,

they pretty... I mean, Michael Jackson did a bloody good job of sifting his fans out until he only had the mental ones left. That girl that was on it, I believe she was genuinely mentally ill. I thought that was exploitation of the highest order. Yeah.

I am aware that we then watched it. Yeah, well, you watched it twice. I've watched it twice. Well, I had to show it to you, didn't I? So what happened was, they all sat around the table. This is for our abroad listeners who wouldn't have seen it. Anyone who lives in the UK would have definitely seen it because it was the jewel in the TV crown this week.

Yeah, Derek Okora, little scum, con man. And by the way, Derek, if you want to sue me for saying that, you are a fraud. Derek Okora is a liar and a fraud. Right. Not allegedly, but officially. Derek Okora is a liar and a fraud. And if you want to sue me, let's go to court.

Let's go to court with that. I'll tell you what, if you're pretty wrong, take a lie detector test. Brilliant. I know that Derek Okora is 100% definitely a liar and a fraud.

Do you know how I know? How? The spirit of Fora Herd told me. Okay. I remember that day because you went into a trance when she did it. I went like that.

Ooh, like that. I mean, he is ridiculous. So try disproving that one, Derek. Yeah, Derek, take us to court, Derek. Take us to court and sue us. Take a lie detector test, Derek. Lie detector on Jeremy Coyle. We should invite Okora to the live show.

No, I wouldn't want him even as a guest. I would. Why? Sell more tickets. I don't think we would. Oh, we would. I think we'd get returns if we announced Jeremy Coyle. Okay.

If we said Derek Okora's in the live show, I think some of the tickets would be sent back now. It's horrible, really, isn't it? And speaking of horrible, June Sarpong was hosting the show. Now, what is wrong with her voice? If June Sarpong has had a stroke, then I don't want to take the piss. I think she got trapped in a saw trap when she was younger.

Like one with like all pins sticking to her vocal cords and then she got out of it just in time but it did scratch it and the thing is she was screaming

so much that in her head now she is always screaming. She used to go get me out of the trap. So when she'd go coming up next Ollie Oaks omnibus

she was always thinking about that. Addiction's not either of them. I think the saw trap also had two screws in the little attachment things on your jaw. Yeah.

Which just basically made them a bit loose. I think she has got a slack jaw. Slack jaw's not an insight you hear that often anymore, is it? I do think she's got a slack jaw.

A slack jaw with a great voice, like you say. Yeah. I think she sounds drunk. Now, that could be libelous. No, I think she got a slap of jaw with a great voice, like you say. Yeah. I think she sounds drunk. Now, that could be libelous. No, I think she sounds drunk. That's not libelous. That's my opinion.

Okay. If she had been on This Morning, right, straight after Carrie Katona that time, nobody would have mentioned Carrie Katona. It wouldn't have said a bloody word. No. I find her particularly offensive. And she came on and she was going, Michael Jackson, I've always been a fan of Michael Jackson,

but I never got the opportunity to interview him. And tonight made me, it's fucking ridiculous. Michael Jackson is in the spirit world, which of course he isn't because there is no such thing. But if he was, let's suspend our disbelief. Why would Michael Jackson go, I tell you who I'm going to give an exclusive to. June Sarpong and Derek Okieve. Yeah. Why would Michael Jackson go, I tell you who I'm going to give an exclusive to. June Sarpong and Derek Acora on Sky.

That's where I'm going to do my one. You wouldn't. You'd go, tell you what, I know what I would do. I'll walk along the background in EastEnders. Loads of people will see that. I could either do that,

or I could go on Sky 1 with 150 viewers and talk to June Sarpong because I forgot to do it when I was alive right no I'm going to do that make my big comeback on telly as a ghost go be in the lottery machine

yeah I tell you what lots of people will be watching I would do it matching the date I would do a streak score the goal against Manchester do a streak score the goal against Manchester

United kick it in the goal I tried it once where I hit in a beach ball but I don't think people knew it

was me fucking liars you cunt then anyway I think even if Gene Sarpong does believe in all that stuff right

to say I didn't meet him when he was alive so now I'll wake meet him when he was alive, so now I'll wake him up when he's dead, is just rude. Yeah, I mean, you're probably pissing him off. Yeah. Michael!

And the other guest that they had on there was David Guest. Yeah. What is happening there? Well, my favourite bit was another June Sarpong-related bit, when they went to a VT, because it was in Ireland where Michael Jackson had been before, and they went to a VTt yeah because it was in ireland where michael jackson had been before and they went to a vt about michael jackson spending time in his village in ireland and they showed cctv of him going bowling at um cosmic bowl right and they interviewed the owner and then they cut back to june saupong and david guest in the studio and june saupong

went wow bowling david did you know about this And I wasn't quite sure whether she was asking about the concept of bowling. Like, she was going, I've got to try that. Or she was like, wow, he likes bowling. Were you aware? And David Guest was like, yeah. I mean, we went bowling a lot as children. Sometimes we just throw it down the gutter.

I mean, do you think when she said, did you know about this, do you think that between June Sarpong and David Guest, bowling is code for fingering Macaulay Culkin did you hear when David Guest said

there's one bit where they went oh yeah we always used to go to Kentucky Fried Chicken and we would have a food fight all the time

he would take the skin off he would take the skin off his chicken and say it's organic and then Michael would throw his mashed potato at me and I'd be like

what eh Kentucky Fried Chicken? Didn't they do in America, maybe? No. I think they do. Bollocks. Yeah, and bollocks. Right.

Can one of our American listeners please verify either way? Do Kentucky Fried Chicken in the States serve mashed potato, please? If they do, I'll make an apology to David Guest. I'll send him a fish or something. I don't know what he likes. Don't forget our live show as well oh shit King's Place I'd forgotten for a second

but now I remember remember it Saturday the 19th of December King's Place London live show Pico King humble live our review of the year review of the year

dancing and singing yeah mince pies if you bring them do you know what I think we should do? What? I think for one lucky ticket holder, they get a free dinner. But they have to eat it in the corner

of the stage while it goes on. No, we'll just present them with a dinner. Alright. When they arrive, right, we'll just pick someone at random and give them a free dinner. We'll have a free dinner. Alright, imagine that. I got a free dinner last night. Yeah, you did. At Russell Howard's show. I get a free dinner. A woman, imagine that. I got a free dinner last night. Yeah, you did. At Russell Howard's show. I get a free dinner.

A woman, right, comes, like a dolly bird, right? Yeah. Comes and knocks on my dressing room door, right, and goes, will you be trying this for dinner? And I go, ooh, sexy, sexy. Right, I don't. Yeah, and then she goes, right, I'm going to go now. I go quiet.

Right, and then think, can I let on to this woman that I eat? And then most weeks I don't have nothing. But last night I went, do you know what? What have you got on there? It's just like a menu. What have you got on there? And I looked right, and guess what I had? What?

I ordered steak sandwich, right? Whoa. I went and did the opening warm-up bit, the first 20 minutes or so. Right. Went back to my dressing room to have my steak sandwich. Guess what? What? It was all posh stuff.

I think it was Gordon Blue. I think I'm having Gordon Blue. I've had Gordon Blue before, right? Where I had chips, right? Guess what? They just stacked them on top of each other. Yeah, I know. That's ridiculous.

It's like a game of Jenga. I'll tell you why that is, mate. It's not posh, right? Yeah. It's because they take them just right out of the box and don't even do anything with them. That's not what it is.

They're microchips yeah you just put them out exactly as well well I had right

it was in like foreign bread right it had steak inside it right with a bit

of blood in it yeah wrinkly tomatoes right and on the plate

I thought it was the pattern on the plate right but it wasn't it was posh dribble carrying on with TV Burps

going well on it so far it's going brilliant mate brilliant TV Burps and we're at the telly we've already talked about Michael Jackson's seance I want to pick you up on something as well

by the way something that you said in that alright then you said Michael Jackson's sounds. I want to pick you up on something as well by the way something that you said in that. Alright then. You said Michael Jackson's fans had been through the worst. Now I would

contest that. Right. With two words. Up the Gary Glitter. Right that's four words isn't it. Gary Glitter.

That's two words that yeah. Fair comment isn't it. Yeah I mean does he have any fans left. I would imagine so.

What I want to know is that is Gary Glitter's music good enough that someone loves it so much that even though he is a convicted paedophile, that they will stick with him? Right, I'll tell you what, I'm going to lay my neck on the line here in a big way.

I have got some Gary Glitter stuff on my iPod, but I actually, I re-labelled it. It actually says, Gary Glitter, boy that's the artist is what it said which in my head is my concession to it right but would you would you consider yourself a fan of him would you go to a concert or would you follow him around and get an autograph right if your question is if Gary Glitter announced a concert tomorrow would I go to it? Yeah. My answer is yes, yes, yes. Yeah, but so would I.

I would hope that we all would. Yeah. It would be brilliant. But... That would be... The... Just the simple audacity of that. Yeah.

The front of that would be amazing. I would love that. Wembley, I would love it. And I'd like... I'd want all the crowd going... Like, fucking 70,000 people just screaming at him. And him just banging on through it. I would love it and I'd like I'd want all the crowd going boo like fucking 70,000 people just screaming at him

and him just banging on through it you know what he'd call the terse like Gary Glitter through a child's eyes or something it used to be

the gang show didn't it the Gary Glitter shows that he used to do every Christmas right were the gang shows I actually watched

weirdly I watched a clip of Gary Glitter which was I think it was recorded two days before his original arrest. Because they were going to do a thing on Children in Need on a Friday night, which was all DJs, Tony Blackburn and Ed Stewart and Mike Reed and that were all on there,

all singing as Gary Glitter. And then Gary Glitter was there at the end. And it was a tribute to Gary Glitter. Wogan's there cheering him on. Two days before, and they're all going, Oh, he's our hero, this bloke. He's our hero, this bloke. And I really like it, knowing what sort of happened

so, so soon after that. So quickly after that, yeah. And it was cut from the broadcast. It was pre-recorded. Yeah. It was cut from the broadcast. But the reason we're talking about Gary Glitter is because another programme this week

was called The Execution of Gary Glitter. See, I missed this one. I'll fill you in on it. Here's my overall feeling about it. Gary Glitter apparently has released a statement this week saying he's going to sue Channel 4.

Right, okay. And having watched the programme, he has every right to. Okay. Now, if Gary Glitter is able, in 2009,

to sue for defamation of character, you have done something really bad. Defamation of character, right? So, we're establishing, I've done something really bad about defamation of character right so we're establishing

right from the initial point that there is some character to defame right now we know that Gary Glitter's

name at the moment is Mud right so that's where we're at no they were different bands oh yeah yeah I apologise

to the members similar they were similar they had the platforms and that but to go go beneath that, that text, I mean, it was vile. Well yeah, tell me about it. It was vile. It was a biopic, so they did it as a mockumentary, I guess. Okay. A bloke played Gary Glitter. Right. And also, interestingly, it won't mean nothing to you, he was actually Green Leader from Return of the Jedi. Right. It was the bloke who played him. I can't remember his name, but I did recognise him from that. Just pure conjecture. Right. Set in a fictional Britain. Okay.

They call it a parallel Britain. Right, okay. Where the death penalty had been reinstated. And Gary Glitter was going to be executed. Yeah, first one. Gary Glitter was first one. Oh, right, yeah. Big celebrity one for the first one.

Yeah, big celebrity one. And the reason was because he'd had sex with a minor abroad, right? Right. That was another rule that they changed. Right. That you were allowed to be trialled in this country. a minor abroad, right? Right. That was another rule that they changed. Right. That you were allowed to be trialled in this country. Is that right then?

I don't think you can. I don't think you possibly can. You can't be trialled in this country for a crime committed abroad. Like, if you've been to, like, Spain or something, where I think,

I heard the age of consent was 13. Right, okay. In Spain. I don't know if that's right or not. If it is, I'm sure I've heard that. Well, why don't you just get a load of paedophiles going to Spain then?

I can't. I've not got time to organise that. I mean, I know what you're saying. It would be a good holiday night. That would be a... I don't mean for me to join in. No. That would be a good laugh.

A good tour package, wouldn't it? If I could get a load of paedophiles to go to Spain. We could turn a bloody mint doing thisophiles to go to Spain we could turn a bloody mint doing this we could do paedo tours we should all go

we should all go to those paedo tours right not hey we don't want you having sex with children no no

we're not to do with that we're just not part of it right but get together we're like minded lads right

yeah right we'll get a big bus like a golden boy or something right stick you all on it right we'll go Spain big bus like a golden boy or something right stick you all on it right we'll go Spain

we'll go Japan all the lowest places of legal consent the lowest ages the lowest ages right all the youngest people why are we

tucking them to those places then just have a look round and go oh imagine if I lived here and then straight and as soon as they

start walking towards the church they go no back on the bus yeah okay i mean i'm not sure i hear what he's saying and to begin with i thought it was a good idea yeah and i laughed imagine all tripping around spain with big sombreros i don't think that do you know what we're all going on a peter holiday i think very quickly the group would dissipate

i don't think they'd stay as a group i I think as soon as we got there, they'd probably wander off and do their own thing. Mate, we could call it Club 1213. No, we can't, because we're not saying that they're allowed to do it. No, I know, but we could dress in school uniform and... No, we're not doing that! Take them on a school crawl.

To tell them... Alright, I'm selling my show in this company. Oh, wicked, I own it. to tell them... All right, I'm selling my show in this company. Oh, wicked, I own it. Yeah, buy me out, mate. So, yeah, so there we go. So the point of it was

it was a biopic of that, of Gary Glitter basically being executed. I don't know where it's come from all of a sudden. I mean, the Gary Glitter stuff was a while back. I'm not saying that

excuses any of it. No. What I'm saying is it was like, just fucking let it go. you don't have to keep going on it is does become a witch hunt get over it no but what no what invariably happens though is people end up having sympathy for the person who's being attacked yeah that's what happened it does happen it happened with jay goody completely happened with jay goody when she was being terribly racist and a horrible vile human being. And then so many people attacked her

that people then eventually ended up having sympathy for her and then the cancer thing proper helped. I mean, that was... I'm not sure it's going to... That'll happen with Gary Glitter though, no matter what.

What if Gary Glitter gets Tuppence cancer? Then what? Then what? So if Gary Glitter got the equivalent, right, then everyone who writes for The Sun and that

would go like, serves you right, that is God putting cancer up your man tuppers. Well, there we go. Do you know what? I liked him. I did like him. In the old days, I liked him.

I saw him live a couple of times. I liked him. I wouldn't buy a Gary Glitter record now. You'd be outpushed to find one, I think. No, I don't know. He's bringing best ofs out every now and again. I really don't think his record company are bringing out a best of Gary Glitter record now. You'd be outpushed to find one, I think. No, I don't know, because he's bringing best albums out every now and again. I really don't think his record company are bringing out a best of Gary Glitter.

Yeah, but he owns a record company, I think. But I don't think he's bringing anything out, because he knows it's not going to sell very well. I can guarantee you that he's had at least three albums out since this happened. Really? Yeah, since the original Conviction. I'll bet you anything that he's had at least three albums out.

There'll be compilation albums, but I bet you they have been out. Who's bought them though? His family. I'm sure he's got, he must know someone.

You know what I mean? Gary Glitter's just wandering about the countryside at the moment, like fucking Little Is Dobo. You just see him

having thousands and thousands of copies in his shack in Cambodia or something and just sort of... He lives over there. Does he? Yeah, he shack in Cambodia or something. He looks all great now. Does he? Yeah, he's in the UK now. Where is he in the UK?

I don't know. And if he did now, I don't think I'd be allowed to say. I'll tell you where he is, right? Upstairs. He's upstairs from my apartment. He lives across the way. He makes noises. I'll tell you what.

You can hear him clumping around in his big boots. Sometimes he stamps for apparently no reason. I think he is listening to something on his headphones.

Look, point of the matter was, right, the execution of Gary's glitter was a fucking, it was a dreadful piece of drama. It wasn't even

well written or anything like that. I thought it was terrible and also I thought it was unnecessary. It also, I thought it was unnecessary. It could have been done with a fictional character and it would have been fine. The fact it was going glitter, it was victimisation.

It was going after one bloke who has just gone away. It was the equivalent of walking ten miles out of your way just to kick a bee-eye. Four stars, some funny bit. Well, I'm pretty much done now. Are you? Yeah, pretty much. Shall I do a letter?

Yeah, you wrote the letter this week, didn't you? Yeah, I've done a letter out of my mind. Get free stuff by writing a complaint letter to a company. Oh, don't stick on the free stuff too much. Oh, right. Have you branched out a bit? I mean, it's not like a complaint letter. Right. It's not a complaint letter.

You've just written a letter. No, I've just brought a satsuma. All right, OK. Well, that'll do as a section. No, well, it's topical, though. Oh, nice one. Well, I think people... Well, it's topical now,

but it might not be topical when it comes out. Oh, yeah, sorry. It's old hat, though. OK, well, the thing is, is we're recording this last week. Yeah. That's why we've also not done the update of the Fraser story. Yeah, we'll do that next week. Because we why we've also not done the update of the Fraser story.

Because we've only had two entries or something so far because it was so close to the last one coming out. So sorry about that, but we have been doing TV Burp. Yeah, so I hope you enjoyed that TV Burp. If we might have to stop next week for legal reasons. Do you know what? I think we should bring out a special DVD at Christmas

and we'll call it TV Burp Gold. But we've only done one episode of Ray and Ed's TV Burp I know well we'll get the best bits and why have we got

a DVD of it when it's not even a visual thing we'll get the best bits of this right and we'll bring out a TV Burp Gold

and then the following year listen no DVD available in all good shops right what would the pictures be and then the following year we'll have TV Burp Gold 2 right okay

yep and it'll be on DVD right and on the front of the DVD we'll have I don't know a picture of Ariel with a big remote control

so we'll do that yeah so if you ever see that that is ours that is ours that is our that is our DVD of God

yeah and we'll do a book as well yeah so if you see any of these things they are our things and do buy them in the shops. Oh, and by the way, we also released something called Michael McIntyre,

Hello Wembley, but don't get that. We really regret that because it's just animal porn. So don't get that. And don't think you can get it for the extras, right? Because the extras, right,

it's just a puppy stuck in razor wire slowly trying to get out and... I mean, they'd do a wee on its head. Yeah, hitting all the cuts. I tell you what, that foreign beer was ridiculous, wasn't it? I think there was absinthe in it. stuck in razor wire slowly trying to get out and I mean they'd do a wee on its head in order to cut I tell you what that foreign beer was ridiculous wasn't it

I think that was Absinthe wasn't it so and we called it Michael McIntyre didn't we yeah I mean that's what

our one was called yeah so don't get that one we really regret that one yeah if you see our one that we made in the shops yeah then don't buy that because it's illegal

yeah it's illegal in the fences so don't buy it and it's got Michael McIntyre on the front as yeah then don't buy that because it's illegal yeah it's illegal and offensive so don't buy it and it's got michael mcintyre on the front as well but don't let that think that it is his the one that we made that's the one that we made the one that we made we put michael mcintyre on the front as well so i don't know if michael mcintyre himself has brought out one yeah call the same thing but i know if i was out shopping i wouldn't want to risk it i wouldn't want to risk that either way I wouldn't want to risk that either way no

so don't don't get that one get our TV Burt one yeah with Ariel on the front with a big um remote control

anyway here's my brilliant Ed's letter that doesn't conform to the premise my topical letter like have I got news for you

Ian Islops dear Mrs James I mean James fuck I'm always getting that wrong but give over, they do sound similar. They do, it's true. So, topical.

Do you remember? My name is Mrs. Afrosi and I'm a woman on a foot. She boots my whitings of spells. I am very whizzy and then rally have a sack time spelt like the herb to concentrate. Right, I think I'm back now. I've got my magic pen or something.

Anyway, Mrs Jam. First I want to say sorry about your son. That is well sad and probably a big shock. My husband was in the army before he became a ballet shoe. So I know how you feel. You're not only a ballet shoe. So I know how you feel. You're not only a ballet shoe as a job. So I know how you feel. Do you feel hungry?

I'm just guessing now, really. I also have a son, brackets, I'm not showing off. Who's a big part of my life's problems. So I'm really writing to thank you for giving me a brilliant idea. I'm going to put him up the army. So thanks for that, Jamelia. And also thanks to your son. Car or something.

I think Fraser would be good in the army. We could make him spit his cancer all over the Indian terrorists. Or he could help knock down the Berlin Wall. Either way, it gets him out of the house and in the army now, like poorly sure but less retarded. I also have a quick complaint, because that's what the letter should really be, Mrs Tiggy Winkle. I understand it is disrespectful for Gordon Browns to write a messy letter and it sullies the memory of your son.

Along those lines, it is also disrespectful to go on the telly looking like that. Go on, put some lippy on at least and get a poppy on it. Fucking hell. Oh, fuck. Wax my anus, Mrs Fraser. Brackets, not with an eye in it, you morons. That's right, I'm going to sun. Right. I don't know about that one, Ed. What?

It's a difficult one, this, isn't it? What do you mean? I presume this was a very subtle, vague allusion one Ed it's a difficult one this isn't it what do you mean I presume this was a very subtle vague allusion there to the story that's been going on at the

moment what story about Gordon Brown the Prime Minister writing a letter no mine is about Gordon Brown yeah no I got

that writing a letter to a lady whose son was tragically killed yeah in the army in a war in a war

yeah because he was a soldier yeah I mean if he'd been killed in a war on his was a soldier. I mean, if he'd been killed in a war on his way to the shop and there was a war happening around him, then yeah, fair play.

That is bad. But like you said in your letter, it is a surprise. I guess that the lady's just upset. I presume we'll give her the benefit of the doubt. The real one. Not the one benefit of the doubt the real one not the one in your letter the real one imaginary one

I'm not sure that it's I don't have any political affiliation as listeners will know now I used to be a Labour supporter but not anymore I don't support anyone now but I think it has been very unfair all this business about

a blind man has written me has written me a messy letter I think it's a bit harsh. Which is what it boils down to. Yeah, but I understand that you're upset about your son. So, all right, I will perhaps turn, if you'll pardon the phrase, a blind eye to that.

You said last night we were talking on the phone, he is busy, isn't he? Yeah, he's a very busy man and blind. So in a bit of, imagine being in a rush and being blind and then trying to write a letter and also bear in mind right he don't know you yeah he doesn't know you or your family yeah all he knows is that your son has tragically been killed abroad yeah in a war so he wasn't sat there going i know what i'm going to do he He's English, isn't he? I'm going to deliberately spell a name wrong. That will upset her.

Yeah, exactly. It wasn't deliberate. It was just the information he was given. But anyway, she's accepted his apology now, I think. Has she? Yeah. Has that been real? Yeah, I think so.

It was on the news. So if anything, I'm just stirring it. If anything, you're no better than the people that made the execution of Gary Glitter yeah you're just going back to something that has settled down
