Embarrassing as backfire, isn't it? Oh, dear. Very flattering. Can we put me? I don't know.
We said not Tim. So do you want to put me or not?
Right. So shall I put strong role model?
Yeah.
Yeah, I worked in an office for eight years. That's where I got it all from. I was a middle manager. I went to management training seminars where those speakers talked rubbish for two days. Yeah, I worked in an office for seven or eight years.
Oh, let me think. Let's see. Well, the episode four in series one where we had the guy come in to train people, I remember the first training session I went to, and I remember they did role play, and I remember at the time thinking, this is ridiculous, and it started off, I'd like to complain about my room. Oh, I don't care. Well, you should, you're the manager. Well, go to another hotel then.
Well, I will. And they went, that's the wrong way to do it. And then they said, okay, now we'll do it the right way to do it. And he comes in and says, I'd like to complain about my room. Oh, I'm very sorry, sir. What's up with it? Oh, it's just dirty. Oh, well, I'll have someone clean it and you can have it for free. Brilliant. It was like as black and white as that.
And I remember thinking, I don't know what the moral is. So I quite like spoofing role play.
I'd like to make a complaint, please. Don't care. Well, I am staying at the hotel. I don't care. It's not my shift. Well, you're an ambassador for the hotel.
I think you'll care when I tell you what the complaint is.
I think there's been a rape up there. I've got his attention. Get their attention. OK?
..and the way that we would deal with somebody... Maybe I should, as I thought, I should play the hotel manager, cos I'm used to that. I phased you. But you have a go, see if you can phase me, OK?
There is no 362 in this hotel. Sometimes the complaints will be false. OK? Good.
Of course, because he wants to be top dog. He wants to be the center of attention. He couldn't, you know, he hires this guy, but then he wants to be in charge. So he's just a child. You know, it's his football and he's got to be, you know, the most important player.
She's dead. She's not dead. Long time later, I see a cowboy crying. He says, hey, buddy, what can I do? He says, I lived a good life. I had 1,000 women. I said, well, why the tears? He says, because none of them was you. What, you? No, he's looking at a photograph. Of you? No, of his girlfriend. The video was a show. He sounds a bit gay. It's not gay.
No, no, no, no.
Yeah, no, of course not. No, I wrote those especially for the show. And Free Love Freeway, I'm fascinated when British people who've never been out of their own town start writing songs about what it would be like to cross America. You know, they might as well talk about his space travel. Again, the joke there wasn't that he was bad or the songs were comical.
It was the fact that it was so inappropriate. He's meant to be leading a training session, but he wants to show off. And I love that. Same as those people who take a guitar to a party. You know, it's just like, shut up.
Excruciating, isn't it?
Absolutely excruciating. The white man overbite to show he's really getting into it.
