All Talk 8 - Monster’s In British Football

25/11/08

Hutchback

(beat) we could talk briefly about the football – that's kind of boring.

Dr. Nostrum

The football?

Hutchback

Well, you know, Henry back to Arsenal and all that

Dr. Nostrum (totally uninterested)

Yeah

Hutchback

Avram Grant...

Dr. Nostrum (perking up)

Ah now, Avram Grant's quite interesting, cos I believe, Avram Gra.. if you cross Avram Grant with Ray Wilkins, you've got almost the entire cast of The Munsters, you know, in one person, so, um, that's not bad. If you put a blonde wig on one of them, they could do the..

Hutchback

And in fact Didier Drogba is not that far away – if he just was a different skin colour...

Dr. Nostrum

Right?

Hutchback

...he would look quite a bit like the wife.

Dr. Nostrum

Blonde hair...(pause) I can't rememeber...

Hutchback

She wasn't blonde, she had black hair

Dr. Nostrum

Oh, black hair, Elvira.

Hutchback

Yeah, that kind of look, cos he's...

Dr. Nostrum

She had a widow's peak.

Hutchback

...he's got the hair, he's definitely got the hair.

Dr. Nostrum

I thought she had long straight black hair?

Hutchback

So does he

Dr. Nostrum

Does he?

Hutchback

Yeah, it is now.

Dr. Nostrum

Oh, he straightens it then?

Hutchback

Yeah

Dr. Nostrum

Presumably

Hutchback

Yeah, you know (pause) he looks quite fetching really (pause) for an ugly cheating cunt.

Dr. Nostrum

I, I, I've quite enjoyed.. I have quite enjoyed seeing Avram grant on the sidelines. He's got a very, very (pause) evil (pause) face.

Hutchback

He is a bit like a Bond villain. He is, yeah, that's be quite good, he'd be like the slightly, um...

Dr. Nostrum

Him and the Pope.

Hutchback

...the slightly perverted Bond villain.

Dr. Nostrum

Mm

Hutchback

The one who had a kind of strange, er, sexual orientation that you, you're never quite sure the sort of, er, Goldfinger type who quite wanted to get Bond tied down on a..

Dr. Nostrum

And there can't be – similarly, there can't be, having gone back to that, there can't be many men who've undergone a (pause) worse (pause) ageing process than Ray Wilkins?

Hutchback

Yeah, cause he does look about 80.

Dr. Nostrum

Yeah, he kind of looks like Nosferatu, which he could become and that's the thing – he used to be a young, er, fop, well, he was never a fop, but he definitely had hair

Hutchback

He did. When he had hair, he was quite dashing I would say.

Dr. Nostrum

Yeah

Hutchback

Yes. And he now looks like a fucking egg.

Dr. Nostrum

He does look kind of weird.

Hutchback

He looks like a fucking egg with ears.

Dr. Nostrum

What's the other one, who's the other one that looks like Nosferatu? (Jim Rosenthal- ed)

Hutchback

Erm, Iain Dowie?

Dr. Nostrum

Oh, now he looks like Frankenstien. You have, you've got quite a cast of characters. If you could get those 3 on a panel... When Avram Grant's been sacked, or, whatever, replaced...

Hutchback

He's the Grandfather

Dr. Nostrum

Yeah! He's the Grandfather and you've got Uncle Fester is Ray Wilkins and you've got Iain Dowie who's the tall one at the back...

Hutchback

Yeah...

Dr. Nostrum

...if you darken his hair.

Hutchback

That would work.

Dr. Nostrum

And then you have Karen Brady, not that I know what she looks like, but, er, she does have a scar on her head somewhere so... I presume.

Hutchback

Mm.

Dr. Nostrum

Oh, no, they do it with a Gamma knife, so you can't even get that far – fucking Gamma Knife's! Anyway...

Hutchback

Gamma Knife? What happened to all the other one's, The Alpha, Beta, were they all failed...

Dr. Nostrum

They're early versions that they, er, tried out on prisoners.

Hutchback

Unfortunately they killed everyone they came into contact with.

Dr. Nostrum

Yeah

Hutchback

Yeah, (beat) ooh look, there's some Greyhounds.
