1
00:00:10,640 --> 00:00:12,439
Thank you.
2
00:00:12,480 --> 00:00:14,199
Morning.
3
00:00:14,240 --> 00:00:16,600
Morning,
morning, morning, morning.
4
00:00:19,239 --> 00:00:22,600
Morning, Cliff.
Let me take that.
5
00:00:22,640 --> 00:00:25,280
- Up all night with
these bloody things.
- Yep.
6
00:00:25,320 --> 00:00:27,879
At a time like this,
for God's sake.
7
00:00:27,920 --> 00:00:29,199
(Cliff)
..going to have a pizza.
8
00:00:29,239 --> 00:00:32,159
(Terri)
Can I have the digest, please?
9
00:00:32,200 --> 00:00:33,880
..printing them off.
10
00:00:33,920 --> 00:00:37,240
- Would you mind taking them?
- Oh, all right. Why?
11
00:00:37,280 --> 00:00:40,159
- Erm, Malcolm's there.
- Malcolm? Where?
12
00:00:40,200 --> 00:00:41,759
- In there? Why?
- In your office.
13
00:00:41,799 --> 00:00:43,200
It's just a social call.
14
00:00:43,240 --> 00:00:46,200
- A social call? Jesus Christ.
- Yeah.
15
00:00:46,240 --> 00:00:48,439
Erm...have you got him coffee?
16
00:00:48,479 --> 00:00:50,399
Did you get
Malcolm Tucker coffee?
17
00:00:50,439 --> 00:00:52,159
I thought
you were organising...
18
00:00:52,200 --> 00:00:55,799
Oh, for Christ's...
Get him...
Get coffee, get, erm...
19
00:00:55,840 --> 00:00:58,799
- Danish pastries,
croissants...
- Danish pastries, croissants.
20
00:00:58,840 --> 00:01:01,799
- No, fruit.
Get lots of fruit.
- Can you get fruit?
21
00:01:01,840 --> 00:01:04,840
- Pile of fruit and
lots of coffee, now.
- Fruit...
22
00:01:07,400 --> 00:01:10,640
(Malcolm) No, he's useless.
He's absolutely useless.
23
00:01:10,680 --> 00:01:13,599
He is, he's as useless
as a marzipan dildo.
24
00:01:13,640 --> 00:01:17,120
All right. Got to go.
Minister's just walked in.
25
00:01:17,159 --> 00:01:19,439
Don't interrupt
your call 'cos of me.
26
00:01:19,480 --> 00:01:21,040
You're a Minister
of the Crown,
27
00:01:21,079 --> 00:01:24,200
you don't need to listen
to all of my fucking chutney.
28
00:01:24,239 --> 00:01:26,159
I'm sure it's more interesting
than chutney.
29
00:01:26,200 --> 00:01:29,200
No, no, it's just
my cock-up, as usual.
30
00:01:29,239 --> 00:01:33,640
I thought that Graham Dixon
was doing a briefing but it
was Graham Hughes.
31
00:01:33,680 --> 00:01:36,200
Too many Grahams.
We ought to kill some of them.
32
00:01:36,239 --> 00:01:39,120
(Malcolm) Exactly. So...
33
00:01:39,159 --> 00:01:42,480
So. God,
I'm sorry about the fuck-up
about the coffee.
34
00:01:42,519 --> 00:01:44,840
How am I supposed
to run a bloody department
35
00:01:44,879 --> 00:01:47,920
if I can't get
the Prime Minister's enforcer
a cup of fucking coffee?
36
00:01:47,959 --> 00:01:52,840
That's OK. Listen,
the thing is, you're doing
a bloody good job here, Cliff.
37
00:01:52,879 --> 00:01:56,760
Cos all this shit in the paper
about whether
I'm going or not...
38
00:01:56,799 --> 00:01:59,599
Have you seen...? Terri,
can you bring
the Mailin, please?
39
00:01:59,640 --> 00:02:01,840
Have you seen the Mail?
40
00:02:01,879 --> 00:02:03,359
(Malcolm) "Lawton
dangles by a thread"?
41
00:02:03,400 --> 00:02:05,840
Yeah. "Dangles by a thread".
42
00:02:05,879 --> 00:02:07,079
(Cliff) It's all right,
we've got...
43
00:02:07,120 --> 00:02:08,400
"Lawton dangles by a thread".
44
00:02:08,439 --> 00:02:10,400
- We've got it, it's OK.
- Do keep it.
45
00:02:10,439 --> 00:02:13,400
Just leave it there.
Thank you very much, Terri.
46
00:02:13,439 --> 00:02:15,599
(Malcolm)
There's a lot, isn't there?
47
00:02:15,639 --> 00:02:19,280
It started in the
Telegraph Diarybut just more
and more and more and more.
48
00:02:19,319 --> 00:02:22,199
Seriously,
the PM likes you personally.
49
00:02:22,240 --> 00:02:27,000
I like you personally.
And we have absolutely no
desire to get rid of you.
50
00:02:27,039 --> 00:02:31,479
I just want you to know that.
None of this negative stuff
is coming from us.
51
00:02:32,840 --> 00:02:35,080
Oh, Mal, mate, that...
52
00:02:37,039 --> 00:02:40,520
- makes me feel
a lot more secure.
- Does it?
53
00:02:40,560 --> 00:02:42,479
- Well, it's difficult.
- What's difficult?
54
00:02:42,520 --> 00:02:45,400
- Just endless
headlines day after day.
- On and on.
55
00:02:45,439 --> 00:02:47,560
- Chipping away at confidence.
- Absolutely.
56
00:02:47,599 --> 00:02:50,879
You see, the thing is
that we are
starting to look weak.
57
00:02:50,919 --> 00:02:55,479
Everybody's saying,
"When's he gonna go?
When's he gonna go?"
58
00:02:55,520 --> 00:02:56,680
Right.
59
00:02:56,719 --> 00:02:58,560
You don't want us
to look weak, do you?
60
00:02:59,719 --> 00:03:02,039
No, no.
61
00:03:02,080 --> 00:03:04,159
So there you are.
62
00:03:04,199 --> 00:03:06,360
That's why you've got to go.
63
00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:09,400
- No.
- Yes.
64
00:03:09,439 --> 00:03:11,159
- No.
- (Knock on door)
65
00:03:11,199 --> 00:03:13,199
- (Secretary) Coffee?
- Fuck off.
66
00:03:13,240 --> 00:03:16,280
- Tea?
- You fuck off, darling.
67
00:03:16,840 --> 00:03:18,759
Malcolm, look, erm...
68
00:03:18,800 --> 00:03:23,000
if you do this, it's
the bollocks of the jungle
out there, you know?
69
00:03:23,039 --> 00:03:25,599
They're like wolves.
Pissed wolves.
70
00:03:25,639 --> 00:03:28,680
I've made the announcement.
I've told the lobby, Cliff.
71
00:03:28,719 --> 00:03:32,520
- You've told
the lobby I'm going?
- Yeah. Sorry, Cliff.
72
00:03:32,560 --> 00:03:34,639
- Minister.
- Get used to Cliff.
73
00:03:34,680 --> 00:03:37,800
I've booked you in
for the usual
soapy tit wank farewell
74
00:03:37,840 --> 00:03:39,680
at Number Ten in 20 minutes.
75
00:03:39,719 --> 00:03:42,800
I've also drafted you
a letter of resignation.
76
00:03:42,840 --> 00:03:45,680
You can say you're jumping
before you're pushed
77
00:03:45,719 --> 00:03:49,240
although we're
gonna be briefing
that you were pushed, sorry.
78
00:03:51,039 --> 00:03:52,560
Erm...
79
00:03:52,599 --> 00:03:56,039
Look, tell you what,
you don't need to do all this.
80
00:03:56,080 --> 00:03:59,080
What about Tom?
Everybody knows
he's fucking up Transport.
81
00:03:59,120 --> 00:04:03,199
We can't sack Tom,
we can't lose anyone at
Transport, they're important.
82
00:04:03,240 --> 00:04:04,960
And Social Affairs isn't?
83
00:04:05,000 --> 00:04:08,280
OK, the Department
of Social Affairs
is very important
84
00:04:08,319 --> 00:04:10,680
but it's not Transport.
85
00:04:10,719 --> 00:04:13,199
Transport's cars,
buses, trucks...
86
00:04:13,240 --> 00:04:16,279
I know what
transport fucking entails!
87
00:04:17,120 --> 00:04:19,720
(Cliff) Look, look...
88
00:04:19,759 --> 00:04:21,319
(Cliff sighs)
89
00:04:22,839 --> 00:04:24,839
Look, I'll look at it.
90
00:04:26,839 --> 00:04:28,199
Personal reasons.
91
00:04:28,240 --> 00:04:30,279
I thought that would
give you adequate scope.
92
00:04:30,319 --> 00:04:35,399
Scope. What, like, erm...
shooting up in the Cabinet
Office or something?
93
00:04:35,439 --> 00:04:38,399
Stuffing a cat
up my arse and having a wank?
What do you mean, scope?
94
00:04:38,439 --> 00:04:41,120
This could be
a great deal worse.
95
00:04:41,160 --> 00:04:45,759
You have had a good innings,
you have been
here for 18 months.
96
00:04:45,800 --> 00:04:50,120
And you know, I have written
some very nice
things about you
97
00:04:50,160 --> 00:04:53,040
in the PM's reply
to your resignation.
98
00:04:53,079 --> 00:04:55,199
Some very nice
fucking things indeed.
99
00:04:55,240 --> 00:04:58,600
I had a lump in my throat.
And you know why?
100
00:04:58,639 --> 00:05:02,879
Because no one who matters
thinks any less
of you over this,
101
00:05:02,920 --> 00:05:05,680
so far. OK?
102
00:05:06,839 --> 00:05:09,120
Right. One more thing.
103
00:05:09,160 --> 00:05:11,079
The Daily Mail.
104
00:05:11,120 --> 00:05:13,199
David Topham has
got it into his head
105
00:05:13,240 --> 00:05:16,560
that we are going to sack you
because of press pressure.
106
00:05:16,600 --> 00:05:18,399
- I wonder why.
- Look...
107
00:05:18,439 --> 00:05:22,120
you're in no
position to dish out
fucking sarcasm. That's over.
108
00:05:22,160 --> 00:05:27,240
You no longer have purchase
in the sarcasm world.
Get on the phone.
109
00:05:27,279 --> 00:05:29,800
Tell him you're jumping
before you're pushed,
110
00:05:29,839 --> 00:05:31,279
although we were
going to push you,
111
00:05:31,319 --> 00:05:32,759
but not because
of press pressure
112
00:05:32,800 --> 00:05:36,560
but because of
your deeply held
personal issues.
113
00:05:36,600 --> 00:05:38,360
You want me
to write my own obituary.
114
00:05:38,399 --> 00:05:41,759
Get on the fucking phone.
Do it now.
115
00:05:45,639 --> 00:05:47,439
Thank you.
116
00:05:47,480 --> 00:05:49,240
Morning.
117
00:05:54,959 --> 00:05:58,319
- Good morning.
- (Terri) Have
you seen the Times?
118
00:05:58,360 --> 00:06:00,319
- No.
- Jo Cherman's
been a bit of a bitch.
119
00:06:00,360 --> 00:06:02,160
- She always is.
- Yeah.
120
00:06:02,199 --> 00:06:05,600
- Everything in this
package is small...
- We go down and say it,
121
00:06:05,639 --> 00:06:09,800
the local yokels
will take the photos,
20 minutes is enough.
122
00:06:09,839 --> 00:06:12,240
- (Hugh) Hugh's here now.
- Morning, Hugh.
123
00:06:12,279 --> 00:06:15,720
- Good morning. Come on.
- (Chatter)
124
00:06:15,759 --> 00:06:16,839
Terri...
125
00:06:16,879 --> 00:06:19,399
Shush, I've got something
important to say.
126
00:06:19,439 --> 00:06:21,839
- (Chatting)
- Olly.
I've got something for us.
127
00:06:21,879 --> 00:06:24,600
I've got us a very,
very tasty little morsel.
128
00:06:24,639 --> 00:06:27,439
This morning I had a chat
with my good friend
129
00:06:27,480 --> 00:06:29,240
the Prime Minister
of Great Britain...
130
00:06:29,279 --> 00:06:31,160
- (All) Ooh.
- Yes. And, erm...
131
00:06:31,199 --> 00:06:34,399
Remember the, erm...
132
00:06:34,439 --> 00:06:38,439
(Sighs) Olly,
your benefit unit fraud...
133
00:06:38,480 --> 00:06:40,839
Anti-Benefit Fraud Executive.
ABFE.
134
00:06:40,879 --> 00:06:43,480
ABFE. Erm, Scrounger Squad.
135
00:06:43,519 --> 00:06:44,879
(Olly) Snooper Squad.
136
00:06:44,920 --> 00:06:47,120
The one with
the spending implications?
137
00:06:47,160 --> 00:06:51,199
The Prime Minister's view,
is "fuck the spending
implications, I like it."
138
00:06:51,240 --> 00:06:53,879
- Good.
- So this is us.
We're on the map.
139
00:06:53,920 --> 00:06:58,160
It's a chance for me, Glenn,
to get on Richard & Judy
and plant that flag
140
00:06:58,199 --> 00:06:59,800
right on their fucking sofa.
141
00:06:59,839 --> 00:07:04,240
So the Prime
Minister's authorised you
to announce it, has he?
142
00:07:04,279 --> 00:07:06,399
That's very much
what he signalled.
143
00:07:06,439 --> 00:07:10,439
He said he's right behind us
on this and it's very much
what we should be doing.
144
00:07:10,480 --> 00:07:13,120
This is great.
So we can do it
today at the school.
145
00:07:13,160 --> 00:07:17,079
- We can clear
the press conference...
- Excuse me.
146
00:07:17,120 --> 00:07:21,120
(Glenn) We'll double bubble
it, leak it to the Standard
for the early editions
147
00:07:21,160 --> 00:07:23,759
and trail it on
The World At One.
148
00:07:23,800 --> 00:07:26,800
We need someone
at the Standardwe
can give this to.
149
00:07:26,839 --> 00:07:31,800
What about Angela Heaney?
She's at the Standardnow,
isn't she? Olly?
150
00:07:31,839 --> 00:07:34,399
Erm...yes, she is.
151
00:07:34,439 --> 00:07:37,279
Do you not think that
maybe she's a bit junior,
I think.
152
00:07:37,319 --> 00:07:39,560
Bit too much like your ex
153
00:07:39,600 --> 00:07:42,399
who broke your heart
and dumped you
with a text message.
154
00:07:42,439 --> 00:07:44,759
It was a fucking email,
not a text message.
155
00:07:44,800 --> 00:07:47,240
We give it to her,
she'll write what we want.
156
00:07:47,279 --> 00:07:49,079
- She's easy.
- She is easy.
157
00:07:49,120 --> 00:07:51,800
I can see that you've all got
big,
stiff hard-ons for this...
158
00:07:51,839 --> 00:07:55,600
- (Hugh) Sorry?
- I'm not saying
that's not nice.
159
00:07:55,639 --> 00:07:57,519
- But...
- (Hugh) Terri.
160
00:07:57,560 --> 00:08:00,399
..there is no way
we're gonna clear it
by this afternoon.
161
00:08:00,439 --> 00:08:02,079
(Olly) Why not?
162
00:08:02,120 --> 00:08:04,399
So cool it,
and I'll ring
Paul at the Treasury.
163
00:08:04,439 --> 00:08:07,480
- (All) No, no, no!
- No calls to the Treasury.
164
00:08:07,519 --> 00:08:10,519
If you call the Treasury,
to get near the announcement
165
00:08:10,560 --> 00:08:12,360
he's going to have to
dress up as catering
166
00:08:12,399 --> 00:08:15,800
with a big tray of drinks
and a pot of sliced lemons.
167
00:08:15,839 --> 00:08:17,319
I'm not doing that.
168
00:08:17,360 --> 00:08:19,560
- I'm just going by procedure.
- (Hugh) Terri.
169
00:08:19,600 --> 00:08:22,040
I love doing
things the right way,
that ethical stuff.
170
00:08:22,079 --> 00:08:24,240
I love it, we all do.
171
00:08:24,279 --> 00:08:27,680
But it's difficult
when you're the first
to put your gun down
172
00:08:27,720 --> 00:08:30,959
because people
jump on your head
as if it's a ripe watermelon.
173
00:08:31,000 --> 00:08:32,360
We don't want that.
174
00:08:32,399 --> 00:08:34,200
The Prime
Minister wants to do it.
175
00:08:34,240 --> 00:08:36,440
He's above the Treasury
in the hierarchy.
176
00:08:36,480 --> 00:08:39,279
- I can write it
down on a chart.
- (Terri) Whatever.
177
00:08:39,320 --> 00:08:41,919
- (Glenn) Thank you.
- I'll get to it, Minister.
178
00:08:41,960 --> 00:08:44,000
You're just doing your job.
179
00:08:44,039 --> 00:08:46,279
(Whispers) Not very well.
180
00:08:46,320 --> 00:08:48,279
Will you get Angela
on the phone for Olly?
181
00:08:48,320 --> 00:08:50,600
- You can deal
with this Olly, yes?
- Erm...
182
00:08:50,639 --> 00:08:53,399
- Will it be my usual driver?
- (Olly) ..technically.
183
00:08:53,440 --> 00:08:55,600
- Yes, Hugh.
- I don't fucking like him.
184
00:08:55,639 --> 00:08:58,240
He's... I don't know.
I think he despises me.
185
00:08:58,279 --> 00:09:01,480
We'll have to use him today,
you know how
the pool system works.
186
00:09:01,519 --> 00:09:05,200
So we go down to
the school...erm...have to...
187
00:09:05,240 --> 00:09:08,000
- He's sort of contemptuous.
- The driver?
188
00:09:08,039 --> 00:09:10,159
I feel like
he looks down on me.
189
00:09:10,200 --> 00:09:11,799
No, Hugh, he likes you,
I'm sure.
190
00:09:13,879 --> 00:09:16,519
(Hourly pips on radio)
191
00:09:16,559 --> 00:09:18,840
The World At One.
This is Nick Clarke...
192
00:09:18,879 --> 00:09:20,960
Well,
you can fuck off for a start.
193
00:09:21,000 --> 00:09:22,639
The Social AffairsSecretary Hugh Abbot...
194
00:09:22,679 --> 00:09:24,159
Evening.
195
00:09:24,200 --> 00:09:25,639
- First story up.
- Top of the bill.
196
00:09:25,679 --> 00:09:29,320
..a uniformed,so-called Snooper Force.
197
00:09:29,360 --> 00:09:30,919
The announcementsuggests the DSA has
198
00:09:30,960 --> 00:09:33,399
pushed the Treasuryinto releasing more funds,
199
00:09:33,440 --> 00:09:35,720
so we'll ask,is the Treasury losing its...
200
00:09:35,759 --> 00:09:38,039
Yes, and not before time!
201
00:09:38,080 --> 00:09:41,200
..Social Affairs spokesmanMark Davis Nathenson...
202
00:09:41,240 --> 00:09:44,200
If you can get
him out of the bath!
203
00:09:44,240 --> 00:09:45,799
But first,the estimates of fatalities
204
00:09:45,840 --> 00:09:48,000
from yesterday'strain disaster in Bangalore
205
00:09:48,039 --> 00:09:49,799
have risen overnight...
206
00:09:49,840 --> 00:09:50,879
Well, that's marvellous.
207
00:09:50,919 --> 00:09:52,840
- (Mobile)
- Ooh.
208
00:09:52,879 --> 00:09:55,600
Oh, Tucker. Malcolm.
209
00:09:55,639 --> 00:09:58,799
What the fuck was that?
Was this Snooper
Force thing from you?
210
00:09:58,840 --> 00:10:00,240
Malcolm, I talked to the PM,
211
00:10:00,279 --> 00:10:03,559
this is completely kosher
as far as he's concerned.
212
00:10:03,600 --> 00:10:06,799
He gave the go-ahead
and he said
bounce the Treasury.
213
00:10:06,840 --> 00:10:12,200
We have got 17 different
issues we are fighting with
the Treasury about.
214
00:10:12,240 --> 00:10:15,000
I can hear that you are,as usual, upset...
215
00:10:15,039 --> 00:10:16,720
I'll tell you why I'm upset.
216
00:10:16,759 --> 00:10:19,799
I'm upset because
these fucking morons
at the Treasury,
217
00:10:19,840 --> 00:10:22,200
these people,
they are so paranoid.
218
00:10:22,240 --> 00:10:23,840
If you don't tell
them about this stuff,
219
00:10:23,879 --> 00:10:27,799
cc them on email,
they think
you've started a coup.
220
00:10:27,840 --> 00:10:30,360
- Mal.. .Malcolm...
- You don't seem to understand
221
00:10:30,399 --> 00:10:31,960
that I'm going
to have to mop up
222
00:10:32,000 --> 00:10:35,279
a fucking hurricane of piss
from all these neurotics.
223
00:10:35,320 --> 00:10:38,000
What did the Prime Minister
actually say to you?
224
00:10:38,039 --> 00:10:42,200
He actually said, "This
is exactly the kind of thing
we should be doing."
225
00:10:42,240 --> 00:10:43,879
What did he actually say?
226
00:10:43,919 --> 00:10:47,600
He said, "This is exactly
the sort of thing
we should be doing."
227
00:10:47,639 --> 00:10:52,200
Should be doing.
Should does not mean yes.
228
00:10:52,240 --> 00:10:56,519
Now, there's only thing
to do here and it's what
I'm going to tell you to do.
229
00:10:56,559 --> 00:10:59,159
- Kill it.
- I can't kill it.
230
00:10:59,200 --> 00:11:01,600
I'm on my way to
make the announcement.
231
00:11:01,639 --> 00:11:04,120
There's gonna be
television cameras there.
232
00:11:04,159 --> 00:11:07,200
Fuck the cameras.
Think of
something else to say.
233
00:11:07,240 --> 00:11:10,240
Just don't mention the...
New Avengers or
the Snooper Force,
234
00:11:10,279 --> 00:11:12,000
whatever the fuck you call it.
235
00:11:12,039 --> 00:11:13,679
- Scam Busters?
- Get rid of
236
00:11:13,720 --> 00:11:16,759
I don't want to
hear about it again. Bye.
237
00:11:16,799 --> 00:11:19,320
(Glenn) Hugh, talk to me.
238
00:11:19,360 --> 00:11:21,200
Hugh, what's going on?
What's the matter?
239
00:11:21,240 --> 00:11:24,600
We're going to
have to do a number of
things almost immediately.
240
00:11:24,639 --> 00:11:27,120
- What? What's the problem?
- Fuck.
241
00:11:27,159 --> 00:11:30,120
- What? Hugh, what?
- Stop saying what.
242
00:11:30,159 --> 00:11:32,240
- Right.
- I was sucked in!
243
00:11:32,279 --> 00:11:35,759
- Is this Tucker
jumping on this?
- I think he was right.
244
00:11:35,799 --> 00:11:39,039
- He's always fucking right.
- No, he's not always right.
245
00:11:39,840 --> 00:11:41,879
Should...
246
00:11:41,919 --> 00:11:45,279
- does it mean yes?
- Yes, we should do this.
247
00:11:46,720 --> 00:11:48,399
- Hugh.
- When Tucker
was talking to me
248
00:11:48,440 --> 00:11:52,320
should didn't mean yes.
I mean, it really didn't.
249
00:11:52,360 --> 00:11:54,600
It...
I just...I felt like a fool.
250
00:11:55,759 --> 00:11:58,559
- This is nice.
- Yeah, this is very nice.
251
00:12:00,840 --> 00:12:03,919
This is just work, isn't it?
I mean, we're not...
252
00:12:03,960 --> 00:12:06,200
Yeah, no, absolutely.
Nothing like that.
253
00:12:06,240 --> 00:12:08,279
It's just, you know, deadline.
254
00:12:08,320 --> 00:12:11,600
Yeah, sure, erm...
Something like, erm...
255
00:12:11,639 --> 00:12:14,480
Social Affairs
Minister Hugh Abbot
256
00:12:15,080 --> 00:12:16,919
will today announce
257
00:12:16,960 --> 00:12:20,679
a tough new crackdown
on benefit fraudsters.
258
00:12:21,919 --> 00:12:23,480
Erm. Paragraph.
259
00:12:23,519 --> 00:12:27,320
- Yeah, I can do
the punctuation, Olly.
- Sorry.
260
00:12:27,360 --> 00:12:29,399
Actually, I did have it
written down a bit better.
261
00:12:29,440 --> 00:12:31,320
I've got it on
a piece of paper.
262
00:12:31,360 --> 00:12:33,159
That's fantastic, Olly.
Can I just have that?
263
00:12:33,200 --> 00:12:35,200
Sure, yeah.
264
00:12:35,240 --> 00:12:37,440
- It's should all be there.
- Certainly is.
265
00:12:37,480 --> 00:12:39,639
I've done it in capitals
and everything...
266
00:12:39,679 --> 00:12:45,879
Erm, I think I'll say
senior government sources.
267
00:12:45,919 --> 00:12:48,360
Thank you very much.
268
00:12:48,399 --> 00:12:51,440
- It sounds better.
- Oh, yeah, of course.
269
00:12:52,919 --> 00:12:54,639
Olly, come on!
270
00:12:54,679 --> 00:12:57,240
(Glenn) Over here! Olly!
(Hugh) Over here!
271
00:12:59,240 --> 00:13:00,480
Sorry.
272
00:13:01,000 --> 00:13:02,720
(Glenn) Right.
273
00:13:02,759 --> 00:13:04,879
- What's that you've got?
- Olives.
274
00:13:04,919 --> 00:13:08,480
- Olives?
He's brought his own olives.
- Want one? Glenn?
275
00:13:08,519 --> 00:13:11,200
(Glenn) So the line is -
call every news desk
276
00:13:11,240 --> 00:13:13,360
that the Snooper Force story
277
00:13:13,399 --> 00:13:15,399
is that it was
let out by, quote,
278
00:13:15,440 --> 00:13:19,120
a disgruntled civil servant,
unquote. OK?
279
00:13:19,159 --> 00:13:21,720
- OK, great.
- And, Terri?
280
00:13:21,759 --> 00:13:25,159
- You can drop
that tone, all right?
- What tone?
281
00:13:25,200 --> 00:13:27,200
The "I knewbetter all along" tone.
282
00:13:27,240 --> 00:13:29,559
It isn't fucking
appreciated right now.
283
00:13:29,600 --> 00:13:30,440
(Phone beeps)
284
00:13:30,840 --> 00:13:32,080
Bye.
285
00:13:32,120 --> 00:13:35,000
The thing is,
the story isn't a story.
286
00:13:35,039 --> 00:13:37,080
(Chuckles) What do you mean?
287
00:13:37,120 --> 00:13:41,480
The Snooper Force, it's not
happening. None of that's
actually happening.
288
00:13:41,519 --> 00:13:43,799
- I can't do this.
- You've got to do this.
289
00:13:43,840 --> 00:13:50,120
I mean, yeah, I...
You know, reading,
talking, I get car sick.
290
00:13:50,159 --> 00:13:51,600
I've got to stop,
we've got to stop.
291
00:13:51,639 --> 00:13:54,279
Jesus Christ.
292
00:13:54,320 --> 00:13:56,440
Do you think you could pull in
at the next lay-by?
293
00:13:59,639 --> 00:14:03,159
As far as the department
and
the Government are concerned,
294
00:14:03,200 --> 00:14:05,240
there is no Snooper Force.
295
00:14:05,279 --> 00:14:08,480
What's going on?
Has the Treasury
gone ballistic?
296
00:14:08,519 --> 00:14:10,480
- No, no...
- Why this flip-flop?
297
00:14:10,519 --> 00:14:13,000
No, there's no flip-flop.
Nothing like that!
298
00:14:13,039 --> 00:14:19,159
No, erm, this isn't
a...change in policy
in any...in any respect.
299
00:14:19,200 --> 00:14:22,200
- No.
- What's going on, Olly?
300
00:14:22,240 --> 00:14:24,879
Bec... No,
well, the truth is that I...
301
00:14:24,919 --> 00:14:28,039
- acted beyond my brief.
- What are you talking about?
302
00:14:28,080 --> 00:14:33,159
I dunno, I just kind
of...wanted to play
the big man in front of you.
303
00:14:33,200 --> 00:14:35,279
- You just made something up?
- No!
304
00:14:35,320 --> 00:14:38,639
Listen,
Angela, I am really so sorry.
305
00:14:38,679 --> 00:14:42,240
If it's any help,
the line that
we're giving to everybody else
306
00:14:42,279 --> 00:14:44,600
is that there's
a disgruntled civil servant,
307
00:14:44,639 --> 00:14:47,600
- they leaked the story.
- Have you got a name?
308
00:14:47,639 --> 00:14:50,039
Do I have a name
for
the disgruntled civil servant?
309
00:14:50,080 --> 00:14:52,639
- (Mouthing)
- Derek. Derek?
310
00:14:52,679 --> 00:14:54,559
Terri. Terri.
311
00:14:54,600 --> 00:14:58,720
No, we're just going to pick
a name. We're gonna pick
a name. I'm so sorry.
312
00:14:58,759 --> 00:15:00,919
- I'm so sorry.
- Olly, this is ridiculous.
313
00:15:00,960 --> 00:15:02,960
- It is not fucking...
- Did you plan this?
314
00:15:03,000 --> 00:15:04,519
The last thing I
want to do today
315
00:15:04,559 --> 00:15:07,720
is be stuckin a fucking lay-by
by a Wacky Warehouse,
316
00:15:07,759 --> 00:15:09,200
begging my ex-girlfriend.
317
00:15:12,240 --> 00:15:14,320
All right. So...
318
00:15:14,360 --> 00:15:16,919
what the hell
am I going to say
319
00:15:16,960 --> 00:15:19,039
is the reason for me summoning
320
00:15:19,080 --> 00:15:24,759
all the nation's major news
organisations to
a school in Wiltshire?
321
00:15:24,799 --> 00:15:27,240
(Olly) You want
something sexy,
eye-catching
322
00:15:27,279 --> 00:15:30,440
and that is free and
universally popular
323
00:15:30,480 --> 00:15:34,799
and instantly applicable,
no one can
possibly object to it.
324
00:15:34,840 --> 00:15:37,120
- Yes.
- You should have
said before, Glenn,
325
00:15:37,159 --> 00:15:38,679
because I've got a file
326
00:15:38,720 --> 00:15:41,200
about that fucking thick
of that back at the office.
327
00:15:41,240 --> 00:15:42,840
- Those policies
are ten a penny!
- Olly!
328
00:15:42,879 --> 00:15:45,360
Our entire manifesto
is made up of...
329
00:15:45,399 --> 00:15:47,120
It doesn't help
when you get cynical.
330
00:15:48,159 --> 00:15:49,720
Think of this as
an opportunity.
331
00:15:49,759 --> 00:15:52,600
I can't just come up
with Das Kapitalin a cab.
332
00:15:52,639 --> 00:15:54,240
- Olly.
- Here, shave.
333
00:15:54,759 --> 00:15:56,360
(Buzzing)
334
00:15:56,399 --> 00:15:59,279
(Glenn) What we need is
something that the public want
335
00:16:00,200 --> 00:16:01,799
that's incredibly
popular and is free.
336
00:16:01,840 --> 00:16:04,600
- Return of
capital punishment.
- (Buzzing stops)
337
00:16:04,639 --> 00:16:07,879
That's a joke, right?
You are joking, yes?
Obviously.
338
00:16:07,919 --> 00:16:10,200
Come on,
Olly, come up with something.
339
00:16:10,240 --> 00:16:12,759
(Olly) National
spare room database.
340
00:16:15,759 --> 00:16:18,360
What about zoos?
341
00:16:18,399 --> 00:16:23,039
My kids went to a zoo
the other day and they said
it was fucking disgusting.
342
00:16:23,080 --> 00:16:25,559
You know, the state of it.
343
00:16:26,840 --> 00:16:28,440
That's shit, isn't it?
344
00:16:29,440 --> 00:16:31,600
No...but there
is an idea there,
345
00:16:31,639 --> 00:16:34,200
because in
the middle of the city
you've got wild animals.
346
00:16:34,240 --> 00:16:36,879
Pet ASBOs? Remember that?
ASBOs for pets.
347
00:16:36,919 --> 00:16:42,399
That sounds potentially
ludicrous, but then pet
passports, that was a goer.
348
00:16:42,440 --> 00:16:46,799
(Glenn) What if everybody
had to carry
a plastic bag by law?
349
00:16:46,840 --> 00:16:49,799
You know identification cards
are coming in...
350
00:16:49,840 --> 00:16:53,399
You've fucking cracked.
Are you mad?
351
00:16:53,440 --> 00:16:57,360
What if the announcement is...
there's no big announcement.
352
00:16:57,399 --> 00:16:59,320
- (Hugh) For goodness...
- No, wait.
353
00:16:59,360 --> 00:17:03,200
We say the Department
of Social Affairs
has been doing amazing work,
354
00:17:03,240 --> 00:17:04,680
bread-and-butter work,
belt-and-braces work,
355
00:17:04,720 --> 00:17:07,160
the kind of work
you aren't interested in
356
00:17:07,200 --> 00:17:09,240
cos it's not shiny, shiny,
media-friendly.
357
00:17:09,279 --> 00:17:12,200
You sickos are so obsessed
with the media...
358
00:17:12,240 --> 00:17:14,000
Sickos.
359
00:17:14,039 --> 00:17:16,599
..that every time
we try and...just
carry on with our day
360
00:17:16,640 --> 00:17:21,400
you don't show up,
so we have to
call a big thing like this.
361
00:17:21,440 --> 00:17:24,440
- On target, under budget...
- Coalface politics.
362
00:17:24,480 --> 00:17:26,680
- Yes, I like that.
- Not wasting resources.
363
00:17:26,720 --> 00:17:28,799
- Good, let's do that.
- Let's go for that.
364
00:17:28,839 --> 00:17:33,720
We trick them. Tinselly thing
and they come
along and we say...
365
00:17:33,759 --> 00:17:38,160
"Ah, that's what
we've been doing, we've been
doing our fucking jobs!"
366
00:17:38,200 --> 00:17:39,839
They never print
that stuff, do they?
367
00:17:39,880 --> 00:17:43,759
You've come two
hours out of London
to cover this...
368
00:17:43,799 --> 00:17:45,640
You mugs! You mugs!
369
00:17:45,680 --> 00:17:48,519
But you've got
a bigger story here
than you have chasing tinsel.
370
00:17:48,559 --> 00:17:51,039
Which is you live in a country
which is properly...
371
00:17:51,079 --> 00:17:53,640
Not many
countries can say that.
372
00:17:53,680 --> 00:17:57,480
And we've
probably got ten million
we can throw at it.
373
00:17:57,519 --> 00:18:00,359
That's good, because it sounds
like a lot, doesn't it?
374
00:18:00,400 --> 00:18:02,279
I've got a thing here
that says springy concrete.
375
00:18:02,319 --> 00:18:05,240
I think that's
about the playground...
376
00:18:05,279 --> 00:18:07,640
- Springy concrete?
- (Hugh) Good afternoon...
377
00:18:07,680 --> 00:18:11,079
- Should I say,
"Hello, boys and girls"?
- Yes, very nice.
378
00:18:11,119 --> 00:18:13,319
Like a fucking panto dame.
379
00:18:13,359 --> 00:18:15,200
He's gonna look ridiculous
on the six o'clock news
380
00:18:15,240 --> 00:18:16,799
saying,
"Hello, boys and girls."
381
00:18:16,839 --> 00:18:18,599
He's talking to the audience
in front of him.
382
00:18:18,640 --> 00:18:21,319
Real money for real families.
383
00:18:21,359 --> 00:18:23,599
- Real families or people?
- (Glenn) Families.
384
00:18:23,640 --> 00:18:27,319
- (Olly) People. Real people.
- You see? Don't... Families.
385
00:18:27,359 --> 00:18:30,880
Families sounds exclusive,
it sounds back to basics,
John Major.
386
00:18:30,920 --> 00:18:34,279
- People sounds communist.
- It doesn't sound communist.
387
00:18:34,319 --> 00:18:37,519
- I'll say families.
- Say families of people.
388
00:18:37,559 --> 00:18:41,640
- Mr Abbot.
- (Glenn) Great.
You're on. Here we go.
389
00:18:41,680 --> 00:18:43,039
(Hugh) Thank you.
390
00:18:43,079 --> 00:18:45,240
- (Glenn) It's what
you do best, mate.
- Yep.
391
00:18:45,279 --> 00:18:48,240
(Hugh) This is lovely.
Very nice indeed.
392
00:18:51,119 --> 00:18:53,480
Well,
that was a fucking disaster.
393
00:19:01,920 --> 00:19:03,359
- Well, that...
- Shut up.
394
00:19:05,039 --> 00:19:06,799
Thank you.
395
00:19:06,839 --> 00:19:09,000
(Terri) Ah. Well done.
396
00:19:09,039 --> 00:19:12,319
There's nothing
in the Standard,
big fat nothing.
397
00:19:12,359 --> 00:19:13,799
- Nothing?
- You got away with it.
398
00:19:13,839 --> 00:19:16,519
He's created
a press conference
so boring
399
00:19:16,559 --> 00:19:18,279
that none of
the press will touch it.
400
00:19:18,319 --> 00:19:20,400
- (Hugh laughs)
- Genius.
401
00:19:20,440 --> 00:19:23,759
Fucking well done, mate.
You turned it around.
402
00:19:23,799 --> 00:19:25,640
(Indistinct chatter)
403
00:19:28,440 --> 00:19:31,319
Well, you really
pulled it round, mate.
404
00:19:31,359 --> 00:19:33,559
I took the flak,
you supplied the flak jacket.
405
00:19:33,599 --> 00:19:35,680
Yeah,
and the bullets bounced off.
406
00:19:35,720 --> 00:19:38,599
- This is what
it's all about, Glenn.
- Yeah.
407
00:19:38,640 --> 00:19:40,599
All those years
at the coalface,
408
00:19:40,640 --> 00:19:43,480
hanging in there,
taking all the shit,
all the bullshit.
409
00:19:43,519 --> 00:19:46,400
When you are
Senior Cabinet Minister,
we'll show them.
410
00:19:46,440 --> 00:19:49,359
Yeah, and Snooper Force?
Bollocks,
we'll get rid of that.
411
00:19:49,400 --> 00:19:52,400
For fuck's sake, yeah.
Fiddling while Rome burns.
412
00:19:52,440 --> 00:19:55,079
Fucking right.
We'll kick some arse.
413
00:19:55,119 --> 00:19:57,039
We'll kick some butt!
Kick some butt!
414
00:19:57,079 --> 00:20:00,599
That's what we're in it for,
mate, tell them all
the shit that we do.
415
00:20:00,640 --> 00:20:02,480
It's a means to an end, mate.
416
00:20:02,519 --> 00:20:05,319
Fuck me, Malcolm.
How do you do that?
417
00:20:05,359 --> 00:20:07,599
Can I have a word with you?
418
00:20:13,040 --> 00:20:15,839
(Sighing heavily)
I'm hacked off, mate.
419
00:20:17,039 --> 00:20:20,200
But w-w-we killed it.
It-it's killed.
420
00:20:20,240 --> 00:20:23,359
Yeah. But once you
start the fire...
421
00:20:23,400 --> 00:20:25,640
And we didn't start the fire.
422
00:20:25,680 --> 00:20:29,200
It was always burning since
the world's been turning,
et cetera, et cetera.
423
00:20:29,240 --> 00:20:31,720
Malcolm,
you're not making any sense.
424
00:20:33,200 --> 00:20:35,960
Prime Minister, obviously,
he's on the plane in Stockholm
425
00:20:36,000 --> 00:20:38,799
and somebody hits him
with The World At One.
426
00:20:38,839 --> 00:20:42,599
He thinks it's the Treasury
trying to stiff him one
427
00:20:42,640 --> 00:20:44,119
so he, er...
428
00:20:49,039 --> 00:20:51,559
he stuck with the story.
429
00:20:51,599 --> 00:20:55,440
- He liked it?
- Yeah, he's
backing the Snooper Force.
430
00:20:56,799 --> 00:20:58,240
Oh, right.
431
00:20:59,720 --> 00:21:01,680
You... We shouldn't
really then have...
432
00:21:01,720 --> 00:21:05,200
I mean, you shouldn't really
have told us to, er...
433
00:21:05,839 --> 00:21:07,720
Should you? (Chuckles)
434
00:21:08,279 --> 00:21:10,039
Don't should me, Hugh,
435
00:21:10,079 --> 00:21:13,519
cos I'll should
you right back,
right through that window.
436
00:21:13,559 --> 00:21:17,319
None of this should
be happening, should it?
Should it? Should it?
437
00:21:17,359 --> 00:21:20,400
Is that should
in the...sense of yes, or...?
438
00:21:20,440 --> 00:21:23,079
It's should in the sense of
you should do as
you're fucking told.
439
00:21:24,640 --> 00:21:26,319
What, erm...
440
00:21:26,359 --> 00:21:28,200
What are we gonna do now?
441
00:21:28,240 --> 00:21:32,079
You're gonna completely
reverse your position.
442
00:21:32,119 --> 00:21:34,279
Look, no, hang on a second.
443
00:21:34,319 --> 00:21:38,440
Hang... Malcolm.
It's not actually that, erm...
444
00:21:38,480 --> 00:21:41,119
- That's gonna be
quite hard, really.
- Yes, well,
445
00:21:41,160 --> 00:21:45,000
the announcement
that you didn't
make today, you did.
446
00:21:45,039 --> 00:21:46,799
No, no, I didn't.
447
00:21:46,839 --> 00:21:50,160
And there were
television cameras there
while I was not doing it.
448
00:21:50,640 --> 00:21:52,599
Fuck them.
449
00:21:52,640 --> 00:21:56,359
I'm not quite sure how...
What level of reality I'm
supposed to be operating on.
450
00:21:56,400 --> 00:21:58,519
Look,
this is what they run with.
451
00:21:58,559 --> 00:22:02,400
I tell them that you said it,
they believe that you said it.
452
00:22:02,440 --> 00:22:04,160
They don't really
believe you said it,
453
00:22:04,200 --> 00:22:06,599
- they know you never said it.
- Right.
454
00:22:06,640 --> 00:22:09,000
But it's in their interests
to say you said it
455
00:22:09,039 --> 00:22:10,880
because if they don't,
456
00:22:10,920 --> 00:22:13,799
they're not gonna get
what you say
tomorrow or the next day
457
00:22:13,839 --> 00:22:16,240
when I decide to tell them
what it is you're saying.
458
00:22:17,559 --> 00:22:20,000
Yeah. I-I am
following this, I just...
459
00:22:20,039 --> 00:22:24,720
I had a friend
who used to indulge
in extramarital affairs, OK?
460
00:22:24,759 --> 00:22:27,599
He would go off and
have some dalliance
461
00:22:27,640 --> 00:22:30,799
and every
Monday he'd come back
and he'd meet his wife.
462
00:22:30,839 --> 00:22:35,319
And he told me that all he did
was inside his head
turn a little switch.
463
00:22:35,359 --> 00:22:38,559
- The affair never happened.
OK?
- Right.
464
00:22:38,599 --> 00:22:40,960
There's not a...
What is the problem with this?
465
00:22:41,000 --> 00:22:45,680
The problem with it...
First of all,
I didn't get much dalliance.
466
00:22:45,720 --> 00:22:48,920
Get it into your head,
rewind today in your head.
467
00:22:48,960 --> 00:22:51,000
OK, stop explaining it to me.
468
00:22:51,039 --> 00:22:52,599
I have to
fucking explain
it to you, man,
469
00:22:52,640 --> 00:22:54,599
you haven't been
here long enough.
470
00:22:54,640 --> 00:22:58,200
(Glenn) I don't think
he'd be really up for that.
471
00:22:58,240 --> 00:23:01,160
- Tucker's in the building...
- (Olly) When did he come in?
472
00:23:01,200 --> 00:23:03,400
Where are all the people?
Where are my people?
473
00:23:03,440 --> 00:23:06,720
They've gone home,
Secretary of State,
it's 5:40.
474
00:23:07,880 --> 00:23:09,839
OK. Well, erm...listen.
475
00:23:11,039 --> 00:23:13,400
The situation is, erm,
it's pretty terrible,
476
00:23:13,440 --> 00:23:15,599
but things have changed. OK?
477
00:23:15,640 --> 00:23:17,319
The line is now,
478
00:23:17,359 --> 00:23:22,160
I did announce
the Snooper Force
this afternoon at the school.
479
00:23:22,200 --> 00:23:24,279
OK? That's what happened.
All right?
480
00:23:24,319 --> 00:23:28,680
So now you have
to tell the media
481
00:23:28,720 --> 00:23:31,319
in case they...missed it.
482
00:23:31,839 --> 00:23:33,720
OK? Great.
483
00:23:35,640 --> 00:23:38,400
- (Glenn) What we've got to...
- I said this
was gonna happen.
484
00:23:38,440 --> 00:23:42,119
- It's happened.
It's nobody's fault.
- I said it. Glenn, I...
485
00:23:42,160 --> 00:23:43,480
What we have to do...
486
00:23:43,519 --> 00:23:45,240
Excuse me.
It's not my fault, it's yours.
487
00:23:45,279 --> 00:23:48,559
- I didn't say that...
- You said it
was nobody's fault
488
00:23:48,599 --> 00:23:51,240
- but it's your
fault and your fault.
- It's not my fault.
489
00:23:51,279 --> 00:23:53,960
If you walk away from this
I'll pin it on you...
490
00:23:54,000 --> 00:23:55,359
(Hugh) Everything OK?
491
00:23:55,400 --> 00:23:57,480
(Glenn) ..you cunt.
(Terri) We're fucked.
492
00:23:57,519 --> 00:23:59,160
Great.
493
00:23:59,200 --> 00:24:02,039
(Glenn) This is
the real world, Terri.
(Terri) We are fucked.
494
00:24:03,319 --> 00:24:04,880
- How's it going?
- Good.
495
00:24:04,920 --> 00:24:07,599
I think they might need
a little bit of coordination.
496
00:24:07,640 --> 00:24:12,920
- (All talking)
- Has anyone spoken
to Nicky Campbell?
497
00:24:12,960 --> 00:24:15,160
I've got one
missed call here -
Nicky Campbell.
498
00:24:15,200 --> 00:24:18,839
It's become so complicated
and it's actually
terrifically simple.
499
00:24:18,880 --> 00:24:22,720
There was always gonna be
a Snooper Force policy.
Definitely.
500
00:24:22,759 --> 00:24:26,519
It's too good
to have been invented by
a disgruntled civil servant.
501
00:24:26,559 --> 00:24:28,799
I'm really glad
you came in, Angela.
502
00:24:28,839 --> 00:24:31,799
- Well,
I could lose my job, Olly.
- Yeah...
503
00:24:31,839 --> 00:24:33,799
I went all hot and heavy
to the news desk
504
00:24:33,839 --> 00:24:37,319
with three directly
contradictory
stories in one day.
505
00:24:37,359 --> 00:24:40,039
- I know.
- They gave me flip-flops.
506
00:24:40,079 --> 00:24:44,240
You know? Someone
actually went out and bought
flip-flops to give me.
507
00:24:44,559 --> 00:24:46,599
Yeah.
508
00:24:46,640 --> 00:24:49,119
You've gotta give
them credit for that,
that is quite funny.
509
00:24:49,160 --> 00:24:51,759
Yeah,
and they pasted onto them...
510
00:24:51,799 --> 00:24:55,960
a fucking porn picture
of a girl sucking a big cock
511
00:24:56,000 --> 00:24:59,880
and they wrote
"Angela Heaney
swallows anything".
512
00:24:59,920 --> 00:25:02,960
That is less funny.
Obviously that's
quite offensive.
513
00:25:03,000 --> 00:25:06,200
Can you give me
one good reason
why I shouldn't do a big story
514
00:25:06,240 --> 00:25:10,359
- on the,
you know, the day of spin?
- What sort of story?
515
00:25:10,400 --> 00:25:13,440
Inside story of a government
department out of control
516
00:25:13,480 --> 00:25:16,920
with diagrams and a flow chart
with your face and name on it
517
00:25:16,960 --> 00:25:21,039
and Glenn's and
Hugh's and big arrows
showing who spoke to who
518
00:25:21,079 --> 00:25:22,599
and how you all fucked it up.
519
00:25:22,640 --> 00:25:25,000
I think I could write
that one up myself.
520
00:25:25,039 --> 00:25:28,359
I think I could do
the punctuation on that one.
521
00:25:28,400 --> 00:25:30,440
- OK, I was patronis...
- Hey. Hi, Angela.
522
00:25:30,480 --> 00:25:32,799
I like the hair,
nice little corkscrews.
523
00:25:32,839 --> 00:25:34,799
Yeah, er, fine.
524
00:25:34,839 --> 00:25:41,519
We were just, er,
talking about why we should
or shouldn't do a big...
525
00:25:42,240 --> 00:25:44,839
story on
the big insidery piece
526
00:25:44,880 --> 00:25:48,799
kind of day of spin
sort of spread in the...
527
00:25:49,599 --> 00:25:52,000
- paper.
- I don't know.
528
00:25:52,039 --> 00:25:54,440
Maybe you should. Good idea.
529
00:25:55,799 --> 00:25:58,200
Oh,
wait a minute, wait a minute.
530
00:25:58,240 --> 00:26:01,000
I know why she shouldn't,
because if she did that
531
00:26:01,039 --> 00:26:05,039
she'd be dead to me,
to this department,
to the Government.
532
00:26:05,079 --> 00:26:09,960
And she'd never
get another story,
or a fucking whiff of a story,
533
00:26:10,000 --> 00:26:14,559
so long as she kept
her sorry hack bitch face
lingering around Westminster
534
00:26:14,599 --> 00:26:17,200
because I would call
every editor I know,
535
00:26:17,240 --> 00:26:19,039
which, obviously,
that's all of them,
536
00:26:19,079 --> 00:26:21,839
and tell them
to gouge her name
out of their address books
537
00:26:21,880 --> 00:26:24,400
so she'd never even get a job
on hospital radio,
538
00:26:24,440 --> 00:26:26,440
where the sad sack belongs.
539
00:26:27,400 --> 00:26:29,240
That's what I'd tell her.
540
00:26:29,279 --> 00:26:31,799
But maybe you should do it.
See you later.
541
00:26:31,839 --> 00:26:33,279
Yeah.
542
00:26:33,319 --> 00:26:35,279
He...he's actually...
543
00:26:35,839 --> 00:26:37,799
He can be really nice.
544
00:26:37,839 --> 00:26:39,799
It's been a very long day.
545
00:26:39,839 --> 00:26:43,400
I didn't say we
weren't doing it, which is
as good as saying we were.
546
00:26:43,440 --> 00:26:45,440
- Thanks, bye-bye.
- The World Tonight.
547
00:26:46,839 --> 00:26:49,279
Hello, Hugh Abbot here.
548
00:26:49,319 --> 00:26:52,279
Yes,
no, it's always a pleasure
to speak to The World Tonight.
549
00:26:53,200 --> 00:26:56,079
Go live on air now?
550
00:26:56,119 --> 00:26:58,599
Yes, of course,
I'd be delighted to.
551
00:27:03,200 --> 00:27:05,839
Robin, my pleasure,
nice to be with you.
552
00:27:06,920 --> 00:27:08,640
Yes. Before I answer that,
553
00:27:08,680 --> 00:27:11,519
may I just say
how delighted I am,
as indeed we all are,
554
00:27:11,559 --> 00:27:13,200
at
the excitement and enthusiasm
555
00:27:13,240 --> 00:27:16,359
that the benefit
fraud inspection unit
has created.
556
00:27:16,400 --> 00:27:19,440
I announced at
a press conference
557
00:27:19,480 --> 00:27:23,000
this new benefit
fraud inspection unit
558
00:27:23,039 --> 00:27:25,440
which we are hoping to call...
559
00:27:26,039 --> 00:27:27,720
Sponge Avengers.
560
00:27:27,759 --> 00:27:31,160
- And at that
press conference...
- (Vacuum whirring)
561
00:27:31,200 --> 00:27:34,359
..there seems to have been
a bit of a blip
562
00:27:34,400 --> 00:27:38,119
because many of
the journalists didn't pick up
on the announcement.
563
00:27:38,160 --> 00:27:41,400
I think they're so
much looking for...
564
00:27:41,440 --> 00:27:43,799
(On radio)
..scandal or incompetence.
565
00:27:43,839 --> 00:27:45,680
So that statement
566
00:27:45,720 --> 00:27:49,400
that the policy
was the invention
of a disgruntled civil servant
567
00:27:49,440 --> 00:27:53,480
was actually the invention of
a disgruntled civil servant.
568
00:27:53,519 --> 00:27:56,039
No, there's only one
disgruntled civil servant.
569
00:27:56,079 --> 00:28:02,680
One of them's...
One of them's an invention...
by the other one, you see.
570
00:28:02,720 --> 00:28:05,680
(Hugh) Anyone
listening carefully
will think I'm mad.
571
00:28:05,720 --> 00:28:08,599
(Glenn) They won't,
it came over loud and clear.
572
00:28:08,640 --> 00:28:11,799
(Glenn) It's gonnaput the whole thingto bed anyway. Kill it.
573
00:28:11,839 --> 00:28:15,240
Olly's offered Angela
a private life
piece about you.
574
00:28:15,279 --> 00:28:19,119
- (Hugh) Great.
- A Sunday walk
with the family,
575
00:28:19,160 --> 00:28:20,359
that sort of thing.
576
00:28:20,400 --> 00:28:21,640
She's gonna be
checking through my books
577
00:28:21,680 --> 00:28:24,839
and snooping in
my bathroom cabinet
578
00:28:24,880 --> 00:28:27,799
and making snide remarks
about how I don't know
who Gail Porter is.
579
00:28:27,839 --> 00:28:30,640
- We did dick her
about a bit, Hugh.
- Yeah.
580
00:28:32,079 --> 00:28:34,559
We're getting a roasting
from what has been
581
00:28:34,599 --> 00:28:36,799
dubbed, but I wouldn't call,
Flip-Flop Friday.
582
00:28:36,839 --> 00:28:39,480
We need allthe help from friendswe can get right now.
583
00:28:39,519 --> 00:28:42,000
- (Hugh) I know.
- What do you think?
584
00:28:42,039 --> 00:28:44,640
I just... I just think that...
585
00:28:45,839 --> 00:28:48,200
(Window whirring)
586
00:28:48,240 --> 00:28:50,599
I want a new driver.
Get me a new driver.
587
00:28:50,640 --> 00:28:52,839
I don't want to see
this guy ever again.
588
00:28:52,880 --> 00:28:54,400
On what grounds?
589
00:28:54,440 --> 00:28:57,440
Smiling.
Inappropriate smiling.
590
00:28:57,480 --> 00:28:59,200
And smirking.
Smiling and smirking.
591
00:28:59,240 --> 00:29:02,519
I don't want to see
that smile or
smirk ever again. OK?
592
00:29:03,599 --> 00:29:05,119
Thank you.
593
00:29:05,160 --> 00:29:08,039
- OK, thank you.
- (Driver) Which
way do you want to go?
594
00:29:08,079 --> 00:29:10,039
(Hugh) I don't care,
you're the boss.
