00:42Which one got you up?
00:44So she just sat there and giggled. I mean if it was teeth or something, but when they get you up for a laugh
00:49It's a bit much. Yeah, sure. It's not come love. It's Friday. They never heard of publish and be damned. There's no need to swear
00:56It's the title of a book
00:59Excited about you never read it when it does come. Oh, what about the public announcements column?
01:03Well, I always read the court circular the lads at the junction tap room
01:06I'd like to thank mine host for smashing New Year's Eve roll on some pats. It's nothing to do with David
01:11Is it I mean an article they've not done one of them. I don't know
01:16Anyway, I've got no control over what they're right
01:20Yeah, yeah, of course it is

01:33Breakfast on the table the local paper come on your chair

01:51That's all I needed what they've only flame you all gonna done an article on me
01:58It is
02:02What do they think they're doing
02:06The little boy who laced up his first football boots at the age of nine and dreamt of Wembley
02:12Saw that dream shattered 16 years later on a frozen football field
02:19At least they're on your side, but I'm Johnny will do without him
02:23By Jackie Marsh and Clive Owen Fleet Street, here we come
02:29Look over I don't want you spilling out in big black tight, but I'm some sort of pathetic has been
02:35There's a lot more to it was just a wet your appetite
02:38No kids been shouting his mouth off. I
02:41Think that David will now have to face facts and find himself a job at a local factory
02:46Said 27 year old schoolteacher Kenneth Barlow of 9 Coronation Street
02:51Although I understand that mr. Lambert has offered him a job at his local engineering firm
02:56David is now considering they offer who says I
03:01Well, I'm not not now today tomorrow next week or any other time full stop they can face that fact
03:06Oh, well, as long as we know, I thought I could have trusted me on brother
03:10David
03:11What your breakfast going cold?
03:13I
03:20Thought alcohol was supposed to have a low freezing point. That's not funny our elder
03:24It's like the Antarctic out there. I'll tell you even the milk's frozen. They want tea this way to break it off in lumps
03:30Where's the teapot in the kitchen?
03:33Hey
03:35Articles in oh, yeah. Oh, it's very well put Stan
03:40They've mentioned our Emma's anguish
03:44What?
03:45Anguish, you know what you get when tragedy strikes a
03:50Grim face doctor. He did look grim didn't he Stan?
03:54Oh
03:55Told David and his family. That's us that the sustained injury was worse than they feared
04:01He's attractive 21 year old bride Emma gasped as she heard the doctor tell David that his playing days were over
04:09Do you remember a gasping Stan? No
04:12You sure she didn't gasp? No
04:14funny
04:15His schoolteacher brother 27 year old Kenneth Barlow of 9 Coronation Street told our reporter
04:21It is tragic to think that it is only two months ago
04:25Since the old family gathered to see David and Emma walk down the aisle together on their wedding day
04:32Kenneth's got a lovely nature, you know
04:35Because it wasn't I really was it more like a corridor. Oh, we weren't there. No
04:40Well, they have to make it sound nice Stan. That's their job. I
04:45Saw you chatty about me. What's the matter? I'm escaping from Jerry Booth the demon worker. What do you mean? It's work
04:51It's got him in its gripping. He can't leave it alone. Oh, it's already got some of these days
04:54I know my motto don't you fair days work for a fair day's payment on every flaming day
04:58You ought to be ashamed of yourself both of you. You keep your oar out of it
05:03Well, look at him a grown fella played. Okay. He wants to go roofing in this weather
05:09well, all right, if
05:10Jerry the red-nosed reindeer wants to go roofing. That's all right
05:13But I've got my complexion to think about your bone idle a pair of you
05:17Ellie you shouldn't talk about other people's afflictions
05:19So you see I thought if I could I'd out here for a while
05:22He might call the chase off and then I can go back to bed. You think good idea. Do you want a copper?
05:26I think you got a bottle of alien from last night. Do you want it? You can have it if you want it
05:29It's pretty you can have it. Oh lovely. Don't put a nanny on me stomach

09:25It's something I said well, I think we should go all fashionable, you know cheese boards and things
09:30All right, I sorry it's difficult to say where the humor if you can call it that lies in the mere suggestion to provide a
09:38Much needed and sadly lacking cheese for well, very good. Mrs. Walker. I'm very particular to a well-oiled cheese myself

11:37I've struck home
11:40Hey, come on, you're fancying it. Be honest. You're fancying it. Don't be a fool. You're fancying it

11:54I'll see you tonight then a
11:57Gant
12:00What you can't be good be careful
12:19I
12:41Have to hear the question first I'm up. Yes. Well, you know if you sell this
12:46Correction there. I'm up when I sell the shop. Yes when you sell the shop. Well, what'll happen to me?
12:51I mean the new owner might not want an assistant. Hey. Ah, yes. Well, I've been dwelling on that quite a bit over
12:56Of course, I can't guarantee they'll keep you on but I've been making a strong recommendation that they do you see
13:01You know the customers that's the main point to a buyer
13:05Have you got a buyer not yet? He hasn't been really advertised, you know, it might drag on for months
13:10I suppose it'd take a lot of money though, wouldn't it? Oh fair bit goodwill and stock for 1700 something like that
13:19Well, we seem a bit quiet I think I'll finish off my schedule D keep an eye on things will you Emma? Yeah
13:32What's a lovely brush like you doing in a dump like this
13:36Oh, I didn't know that you were a ventral
13:40Liquis never say that again. Oh
13:45I've seen you somewhere before now. Don't tell me don't tell me it was as a wedding. Oh
13:52David where did you get here? Give us a kiss? No, I'll pinch your garter David. Stop. It was a bitch
14:00I'm not kissing him. You've got to draw the line somewhere
14:06David is mr. Petty available. He's in the back mrs. Walker. Would you like to go through? Thank you?
14:17If I were you dear I should get him home, that's my advice
14:22You dear I should get him home
14:24David listen, we've got one way to come in here now and if you don't get out of here quick
14:30We'll not even have that
14:35I do hope that I'm not intruding mr. Petty. Not at all. Mrs. Walker. Sorry places in such a mess. No woman's touch
14:42Ah, but still you keep it very nice and tidy and they do say that a room reflects the personality. Ah
14:50French impressionist, isn't it? I think it's what what's called the Dutch school. Mrs. Walker. Oh, yes
14:55Yes, of course very similar, you know, it was the bold brushwork that misled me for the moment
15:01I'm an avid follower of sir. Kenneth Clark, you know, oh the art fella. There's a bit on the telly
15:07Oh, and so well, mr
15:09Petty, you know
15:10He has opened my eyes has sir Kenneth and it's not just that he knows his subject matter
15:17So well, he is so obviously a gentleman. I think he's on to a bob or two
15:24It's the breeding you and I know that mr. Petty good breeding comes over so well, you know on television now when
15:31Mr. Kenner smiles good evening, you know that there is not going to be the slightest suggestion of impropriety
15:39He even described that naked Marja woman, you know in the most innocent terms. I don't think I caught that one mrs. Walker
15:46Oh, yes, goya, you know
15:50He used to do one with and one without Oh
15:57without what
15:58well
15:59Clothes to put it crudely. You see you have to cast your mind back to the period in those days
16:06Apparently it was frowned upon to hang your naked wife on the wall
16:12So goya used to do two pictures for the price of one as it were. Oh, I see. Well, that's that's very interesting
16:18It's a bit like doing the tax, isn't it? You know one for you one for the tax
16:23Yes, and talking about sir. Kenneth leads me to the subject of my visit. Oh
16:28I see you want to buy the picture. Oh, no, no, no, no the betting shop. Oh, of course, that's all fallen through mrs
16:34Walker. Yes
16:35I know Jack told you and I wanted you to know how much I appreciate you resisting that man's efforts to buy you out
16:42Smith I'm still going to sell the shop mrs. Walker. Yes, but as a going concern, that's true enough and on to pastures new. Oh
16:51You know, we've done our best to raise the standards around here
16:55Sometimes I feel that it's a losing battle
16:58Whatever happens you must not blame yourself. Mr. Petty
17:02No, well, I'll bear that in mind mrs. Walker
17:06Look at that
17:09Perfect bottle control
17:14That's what happens when you keep it at school until they turn 15
17:18Well whimsical Walker, no, but you don't know we was always mrs. Sharples, isn't it? Do you come here often?
17:24Well, I used to before they turned it into a circus and mrs. Caldwell
17:29Yes, and you watch you've got isn't it? I know a trick with the new watch
17:33You take an egg and can I borrow your ass you keep it where it is. He's not too safe
17:38And he's not too sober neither mrs. Sharples. Can I get you something, please?
17:43Yes, I'll have a small loaf if you've got one left and he hasn't been handling it that Charlie was very good with eggs
17:48He could make them disappear up his nose. I don't know how he did it. Oh, you need a knack
17:53I think you need a big nose to Dave. No, no, no, no, you need a knack
18:05Well, I'll bet you that I can I can take the bottom tin from that part without this
18:18Very good. What do you do better wave an encore?
18:24That was funny you'll do that. Oh, I think it was an accident. Mr. Petty not running away like that. It weren't I'll speak to you later
18:36Well, what about a button no, no, no, it's January it's not there more. All right
18:41United no, no, they're saving themselves for the cool
18:44You know, I fancy I'm a cad
