- 02:05- It was supposed to be apple white.
- 02:07- And what was it?
- 02:07- Battleship gray.
- 02:08(studio audience laughing)
- 02:10- Well there's a thing.
- 02:11I'll tell you what.
- 02:12If, on my travels, I come across someone who wants
- 02:14their battleship painted, I'll put 'em in touch.
- 02:17- You do that, you do, you're a right
- 02:19con merchant you are aren't you, eh?
- 02:21I don't know how people like you can live with yourselves.
- 02:23Really, I don't-- - Oi,
- 02:24you know that over-coat you sold my dad?
- 02:26- Yeah?
- 02:27- It's got a great big hump in the back.
- 02:28- Well of course, it's genuine camel-hair innit.
- 02:30(studio audience laughing)
- 02:33- I'll tell him that.
- 02:35- Yeah, yeah, alright, alright,
- 02:37I'll let you off the paint, this time.
- 02:38Here, I thought
- 02:39you was going back to Dublin's fair city?
- 02:40- I was,
- 02:41till the brewery decided
- 02:43to have this place re-decorated.
- 02:45- Oh and you've got the contract have you?
- 02:46- As good as.
- 02:48I've arranged it with the governor
- 02:50that mine's the lowest estimate.
- 02:52See you Del.
- 02:53Oh, by the way.
- 02:54If you come across young Denzil,
- 02:56tell him I tried to phone him twice last night
- 02:58but I haven't got his number.
- 02:59- Right.
- 03:00Here just a minute,
- 03:04has he got your phone number?
- 03:05- No.
- 03:06- I'll tell him to phone you then.
- 03:07- Thanks. (studio audience laughing)
- 03:09Oi, just a minute, just a minute.
- 03:11Here, what do you want with Denzil anyway?
- 03:14Oh, he's after having me decorate his front room.
- 03:16It'll be a couple of hundred to
- 03:17take back to the old country.
- 03:19- Here, well listen, when you go back to the old country
- 03:21don't eat any of them carrots.
- 03:24- Why's that?
- 03:24- They've got potato-blight.
- 03:26- Would you believe it.
- 03:27- No.
- 03:30- Are you alright there Rodney?
- 03:32- Yes, yes, terrific, thank you Brendan.
- 03:35- Were you happy with that paint I got you last week?
- 03:38- The paint?
- 03:39Yeah, ace.
- 03:40(studio audience laughing)
- 03:41- Good.
- 03:43I'll see you around then.
- 03:44- Oh yeah.
- 03:45Yeah, you take care of yourself.
- 03:51I don't know how I managed to keep my hands off him.
- 03:53(studio audience laughing)
- 03:56- Come on, drink up, we're going.
- 03:57- What do you mean drink up?
- 03:58I haven't had a drink yet.
- 03:59- Good, I don't want you falling off the ladder.
- 04:02- What ladder?
- 04:03- The ladder round at Denzil's place.
- 04:05- Del, what the hell are you talking about?
- 04:06- We're doing up Denzil's front room.
- 04:08- You never told me.
- 04:10- I know, I couldn't, I mean, be fair Rodney,
- 04:13I haven't even told Denzil yet.
- 04:15Come on.
- 04:16(upbeat singing)
- 04:19Del, I've told you before
- 04:20and I'm gonna tell you again,
- 04:21we should have nothing to do with it.
- 04:23-[Del] I know, but Denzil's no good at papering
- 04:25and painting and that sort of thing.
- 04:27- Well that makes three of us.
- 04:28- Look, no, you seem to forget that Grandad
- 04:30used to be a decorator for the council.
- 04:32- Del, that was in 1924.
- 04:34He used to go to work on a horse.
- 04:37And even then he got the sack after two days
- 04:39for wallpapering over a serving hatch.
- 04:42Oi, that's another thing,
- 04:44how do you think Denzil's wife's
- 04:45gonna react after what you did to her last year?
- 04:47- Now Rodney, that's all in the past,
- 04:50Corinne's a sensible girl,
- 04:51it's forgive and forget, that's her.
- 04:53Anyway, give us a chance
- 04:54to get even with that Paddy,
- 04:55I'd love to take a couple of hundred off him.
- 04:57Anyway you never know,
- 04:58we might be able to get shot of that paint.
- 04:59- Oh yeah.
- 05:00I mean everyone's having their woodwork
- 05:01done in battleship gray nowadays.
- 05:04- But you don't know.
- 05:05Corinne and Denzil may quite like it.
- 05:07- Del, you'll make their front room
- 05:09look like the conning tower of the Ark Royal.
- 05:11(studio audience laughing)
- 05:12- Oh, shut up you tart.
- 05:14(studio audience laughing)
- 05:15- Come on Sylvester, talk to, Denzil.
- 05:18Say Viv Richards is King.
- 05:20(studio audience laughing)
- 05:21Come on, let me hear them golden tones.
- 05:24Come on.
- 05:26Ah, you stupid ras bird.
- 05:28(doorbell ringing)
- 05:30Alright, I'm coming.
- 05:31- You'll have sailors doing the hornpipe,
- 05:33jump-jets landing of the sofa.
- 05:35- Will you shut up Rodney?
- 05:37- Del my man!
- 05:39- Denzil my son, how are you?
- 05:41-[Denzil] Come in.
- 05:43- Yeah, great.
- 05:44I haven't seen you for ages, where have you been?
- 05:46- Well, you know me, here, there
- 05:47and everywhere, ducking and diving.
- 05:49- Rodney, you're looking good.
- 05:51- Yeah.
- 05:52(studio audience laughing)
- 05:55He's cool, I like it.
- 05:57I tell you, if he wasn't so white I'd swear he was black.
- 06:00(studio audience laughing)
- 06:01- Yeah, he is white ain't he.
- 06:03-[Denzil] He's the whitest man
- 06:04I've ever seen in all my life.
- 06:06- I'm not ever so white.
- 06:07- You are.
- 06:09You'd make an albino look bronzed.
- 06:12- Here, grab one of these each.
- 06:13- Oh, here Denzil, Corinne ain't about, is she?
- 06:16- No, no, she's round her sister's.
- 06:18- Oh that' alright.
- 06:18- Hey, you ain't still worried
- 06:19about what happened are you?
- 06:21Come on Del, she's forgotten all about that now.
- 06:23Anyway, what brings you round?
- 06:24- No, we was just passing through,
- 06:26and I thought we'd call in.
- 06:27Hre have you had this place done up?
- 06:28- No.
- 06:29- No, I didn't think you had.
- 06:31- We're getting it decorated soon though.
- 06:33Corinnes' been at me for ages about it,
- 06:35but I'm no good at that sort of thing
- 06:37so I got the Irishman to do it.
- 06:38- Oh Brendan?
- 06:39Oh well, you can't go far wrong with him Denzil.
- 06:41He's a good man.
- 06:43Here, did you hear about that house
- 06:44he did up in, where was it, Kings' Avenue?
- 06:47He made a beautiful job of it so I hear.
- 06:48Mind you I only saw it after the fire.
- 06:51(studio audience laughing)
- 06:56Who's a pretty boy?
- 06:57He's a lovely boy, ain't he?
- 06:58Is he yours Denzil?
- 06:59- No, he's Corinne's,
- 07:01she's had him for a few years, what fire?
- 07:05You mean the house burnt down?
- 07:06Yeah, but don't get me wrong,
- 07:07it wasn't Brendan's fault.
- 07:08I mean, look, I know a lot of blokes
- 07:09who like a couple of pints at dinner time.
- 07:11And it's very easy to forget where you
- 07:12left your blow-lamp.
- 07:13(studio audience laughing)
- 07:15- So it was accidental then?
- 07:16- Oh yeah.
- 07:17It was an accident,
- 07:19even the coroner said so.
- 07:21- Coroner?
- 07:22- Yeah.
- 07:23- Right, that's it,
- 07:24I'm having no drunken Irishman falling about
- 07:25my living-room with a lighted blow-lamp.
- 07:28No way.
- 07:29- Oh my god.
- 07:30Oh I wish I hadn't said nothing now,
- 07:32(studio audience laughing)
- 07:34oh I feel really bad about this,
- 07:36you know what, with Brendan being a mate an' all.
- 07:38Look, never mind Denzil.
- 07:40Look on the bright side,
- 07:41he might not burn your place down.
- 07:44- Yeah, well I'm taking no chances Del,
- 07:46I'm getting somebody else to do the job.
- 07:48- Oh well.
- 07:49Well, it's up to you.
- 07:50I mean, as I always used to say to my customers
- 07:52when I was in the painting and decorating game,
- 07:53I used to say, "It's your money, it's your choice."
- 07:57- You never told me you used to
- 07:58be a painter and decorator?
- 08:00- Oh yeah, yeah, it's been the family trade
- 08:01for generations, ain't it Rodney?
- 08:04- Eh?
- 08:05Yeah.
- 08:05- See.
- 08:06But demand got too much,
- 08:07we had to give it up in the end.
- 08:11- Listen, couldn't you just
- 08:12do this living room for us?
- 08:14- What this?
- 08:15Oh no, no, no, sorry mate, no, no,
- 08:17you know, we've given the game up now.
- 08:19- Oh come on Del.
- 08:20Corinne's been bending my ear about it for ages.
- 08:22Just this one room yeah?
- 08:28(studio audience laughing)
- 08:30No, no.
- 08:31No, no, no, no, no, I'm sorry.
- 08:33If I do it for you
- 08:34I've got to do it for all the others, haven't I?
- 08:35- Del, for a mate in trouble.
- 08:38Please.
- 08:42- Alright, just for you though.
- 08:44- Cheers Del, you're a pal.
- 08:46- I don't know.
- 08:46I don't know what it is with you.
- 08:47You manage to twist me right round
- 08:48your little finger, don't you?
- 08:51- When can you start?
- 08:52- First thing in the morning.
- 08:53A hundred up front, we supply the paint and that's extra.
- 08:55- Done. - And you will be.
- 08:57(studio audience laughing)
- 08:58-[Denzil] I'll get some more drinks.
- 09:00- Good,
- 09:01Rodney, eh Rodney, nice little earner, eh?
- 09:04- I don't think I'm ever so white.
- 09:06(studio audience laughing)
- 09:08- You are, you look like a blood donor
- 09:09who couldn't say no.
- 09:10(studio audience laughing)
- 09:14- Hiya.
- 09:15- Hi hon.
- 09:17- Hello baby, have you missed me?
- 09:22Denzil!
- 09:23(studio audience laughing)
- 09:24What the hell is he doing in my home?
- 09:28- Hello Corinne, you look as lovely as ever.
- 09:31- Del just popped in to say hi hon.
- 09:33- Did he really?
- 09:34Hello, there's the door.
- 09:35(studio audience laughing)
- 09:36- There's the door.
- 09:37She's a card, ain't she?
- 09:39- And what's he doing?
- 09:43- I want you to tell me the truth Corinne.
- 09:45Am I white?
- 09:46(studio audience laughing)
- 09:47- Denzil, have you and Rodney
- 09:49been at the funny fags?
- 09:51- No, honest hon, we haven't,
- 09:52we've just got some drinks that's all.
- 09:55- I go round my sister's to see how she is
- 09:57after having the stitches out,
- 09:59and I come back to find my home full of crazy people.
- 10:02- Oh come on babe, be friendly.
- 10:04Del's gonna do the decorating for us.
- 10:05- He's what?
- 10:07- Well, I blew the Irishman out,
- 10:08I mean I've heard bad things about him.
- 10:10- Denzil, how can you trust this man?
- 10:13Every time you meet him
- 10:14you end up drunk or out of pocket.
- 10:16- Yeah I know, but he's a mate.
- 10:17(studio audience laughing)
- 10:20- Would a mate sell you an overcoat
- 10:22like the one he sold you?
- 10:23- Oh now, come on, be fair Corinne,
- 10:25that was a very nice overcoat,
- 10:27looked like it was made to measure.
- 10:29- Yeah, for the Hunchback of Notre Dame.
- 10:33And what about the time
- 10:33he offered to do the catering or us?
- 10:35- Oh, now don't bring that up honey please.
- 10:38- That was our wedding Denzil!
- 10:43What was it we were supposed to have Del?
- 10:46Lobster vol-au-vents.
- 10:47- Lobster vol-au-vents.
- 10:48- Game pie.
- 10:49- Yes, game pie.
- 10:50- Kidneys with saffron rice,
- 10:53beef and anchovy savouries.
- 10:55- Philadelphia Truffles.
- 10:57- And what did we end up with?
- 10:59Pie 'n' chips all round.
- 11:00(studio audience laughing)
- 11:02- Now I explained all that Corinne, didn't I?
- 11:03The fridge went on the blink
- 11:05and all the goodies went manky.
- 11:08- And what about our three-tier wedding cake?
- 11:11- Yeah, well, that was in the freezer
- 11:12with all the other gear.
- 11:13I mean the icing melted, it dripped everywhere.
- 11:16- Yeah, yeah, that's true Corinne,
- 11:17by the end of the week it looked like a big candle.
- 11:21- I thought you said she'd forgotten about all this.
- 11:23- How can I forget it?
- 11:24I have to live with
- 11:25that wedding album the rest of my life.
- 11:28How many times have you seen a picture
- 11:30of a bride and groom cutting a jam sponge?
- 11:32(studio audience laughing)
- 11:36- Oh be fair, Corinne, be fair.
- 11:38He only got that at the 11th hour,
- 11:41otherwise it could have been an eccles cake.
- 11:42(studio audience laughing)
- 11:45- You want 'em to do the decorating
- 11:47then you let 'em.
- 11:49But I promise you this Denzil,
- 11:50if anything goes wrong
- 11:52I'll make you wish your mother
- 11:54had had a headache the night you was conceived.
- 12:01(smashing)
- 12:05(loud smashing)
- 12:11- She's a little treasure ain't she?
- 12:12(studio audience laughing)
- 12:16Come on Rodney, let's leave the love-birds alone.
- 12:18Talking about birds, you just make sure that Buzzby's
- 12:20in the kitchen tomorrow 'cause of the paint fumes.
- 12:23Leave the key under the mat.
- 12:25Cheer up Denzil, you know it makes sense.
- 12:28Come on, let's get out of here.
- 12:30(studio audience laughing)
- 12:33That'll keep us out of trouble
- 12:34for a couple of days.
- 12:37- Look, I know I'm white,
- 12:38but I'm no whiter than anyone else.
- 12:39(studio audience laughing)
- 12:40- You are, you're whiter than Denzil.
- 12:43- Kunta Kinte's whiter than Denzil.
- 12:45- Here, we might be able to earn
- 12:46a couple of bob out of this.
- 12:48- How?
- 12:49- We could hire you out for hauntings.
- 12:51- I'm starting to get more wild Del.
- 12:53- Now listen, you'd do very well
- 12:54in one of them Mickey Mouse seances.
- 12:55You know where you have to appear
- 12:56through a thin veil of gauze.
- 12:57You could say, "I am Rodney, the anaemic ghost."
- 13:01Wait, that's my hat!
- 13:03You saucy little git.
- 13:04Oh no, it's gone under a bus now.
- 13:07I'll put you under that ruddy bus.
- 13:10- They ain't got a serving hatch have they?
- 13:15- No, no, it's alright, don't worry.
- 13:19Alright, come on Rodney.
- 13:20Now get them dust sheets
- 13:21all over this furniture, will you.
- 13:26- Hey, look Corinne's left a note.
- 13:31Leave the telly alone,
- 13:33don't eat the fruit and stay out of the kitchen.
- 13:36Leave the telly alone and don't eat the fruit.
- 13:39What sort of people does she think we are?
- 13:41Yeah, she's got us tagged all wrong, ain't she.
- 13:45- Here, look at the time,
- 13:46it's half past nine, come on Rodney,
- 13:47put the kettle on, we'll have a cup of tea.
- 13:49- Del, she said stay out of the kitchen.
- 13:51Now I reckon you're taking liberties.
- 13:53- Well, everyone's entitled to a cup of tea Rodney,
- 13:56I mean, it's in the Magna Carta or something.
- 13:59- That's right taking liberties, I ask yer.
- 14:01Here, while you're out there
- 14:02have a look in the cupboard
- 14:03and see if there are any Jaffa cakes going.
- 14:05Go on, go on.
- 14:07Don't worry Grandad,
- 14:08we'll soon have this job finished.
- 14:09- Yeah, soon as Rodney pulls his finger out.
- 14:11-[Del] Yeah.
- 14:22- If this gets a bit much for you Del,
- 14:24you have a nice sit down, eh?
- 14:26Yes, alright, alright, Rodney, thank you.
- 14:27Go on, get going, get going,
- 14:29we'll never have finished at this.

- 14:35Oh no, we're all fine,
- 14:36no we're absolutely fine here.
- 14:38Well, Rodney's looking a bit pale.
- 14:40(studio audience laughing)

- 14:53- No.
- 14:54- The time.

- 15:42- Oh stone me Rodney,
- 15:44I don't know what's the matter with him sometimes,
- 15:45he seems to live in a world of his own.
- 15:48Oh no!
- 15:50- Here Del. - What?
- 15:50-[Grandad] Supposing the steam starts the
- 15:52wallpaper peeling.

- 15:54We come round here to do the living room
- 15:56and end up stripping the kitchen.
- 15:57Oh Del, I can hardly breathe.
- 16:00- You may not ever breathe again
- 16:02if this wallpaper's ruined.
- 16:03Oh look, condensation is everywhere.

- 16:09- That's right, go on Grandad.
- 16:11If we tidy this place up
- 16:12maybe she might never notice.
- 16:14She might notice the kettle.
- 16:15(studio audience laughing)
- 16:17- Gordon Bennett, I don't believe it.
- 16:21Put it back.
- 16:21Say nothing.
- 16:22She might blame Denzil.
- 16:24-[Grandad] Del Boy, come and have a look at this.
- 16:26- No, we're busy Grandad.
- 16:27- Look, I'm sorry about all this Del,

- 16:37- Yeah, cheers.
- 16:39- Del, Del look.
- 16:43It's the bird.
- 16:50He don't look very well to me.
- 16:56That is most probably due to the fact Grandad
- 16:58that he is stone-dead.
- 17:01You dozy little twonk Rodney.
- 17:05- Hold on, just now you said
- 17:06it was an easy mistake to make.
- 17:08- Yeah, it is if you're bloody stupid.
- 17:11- It might not be completely dead.
- 17:13- It might not be completely dead,
- 17:15it's just been sauteed.
- 17:18What is Corinne gonna say when she
- 17:19comes back and finds out what you
- 17:20have done to her little pet?
- 17:22- Well I wouldn't mind seeing her face
- 17:24when she gets her next telephone bill.
- 17:26- Look at this big hole you've made in the kettle.
- 17:28- Well, it's not as big as the hole you made
- 17:29in them Jaffa Cakes is it.
- 17:31- Will you two pack it in?
- 17:35We've gotta think of a way out of this.
- 17:38- I've got it, I've got it,
- 17:40we could say it was caused by paint fumes.
- 17:43- Paint fumes.
- 17:45Paint fumes.
- 17:46When Corinne comes back in here
- 17:48she's gonna find her kettle's been knackered,
- 17:50her kitchen's been turned into a Turkish bath
- 17:52and she's got a Kentucky Fried canary
- 17:54at the bottom of that cage.
- 17:57And we're gonna say paint fumes.
- 18:01- Yeah, you're right.
- 18:05- I'll tell you what we'll do,

- 18:08Grandad, I want you to go down the High Street
- 18:09and I want you to get a packet of Jaffa Cakes
- 18:11and a canary.

- 23:34- What's up love?
- 23:35- Listen to me, listen to me,

- 24:10- I never did like that Corinne.
- 24:12- No, fancy chucking us out like that.
- 24:15- Yeah, I mean what did she expect?
- 24:18How many decorating firms does she know
- 24:20that give you a free canary with every job?
- 24:22(studio audience laughing)
- 24:24- I shouldn't imagine there's many Del.
- 24:26- No.
- 24:27And was she satisfied?
- 24:30I said, "Was she satisfied?"
- 24:32- No. - No.
- 24:32- Of course she wasn't.
- 24:34- Why didn't she just bury the thing this morning?
- 24:37- She was too upset weren't she?
- 24:38That's why she was waiting for Denzil to come home.
- 24:42- She could of at least told us
- 24:43it was laying in state in the kitchen.
- 24:45(studio audience laughing)
- 24:46- She wasn't there was she.
- 24:48That's why she left the note.
- 24:49Please do not go in the kitchen.
- 24:52Look she ain't blaming us
- 24:53for the demise of Buzzby.
- 24:56I think what really got up her nose
- 24:57was when she went to make a cup of coffee
- 24:59and flooded the kitchen.
- 25:01(studio audience laughing)
- 25:03- She turned own my offer of a brand-new kettle.
- 25:05Didn't she?
- 25:06- Didn't have a tenner on her.
- 25:09- I could have paid on the weekly.
- 25:13- Are you alright Del?
- 25:14- Yeah, hello Brendan.
- 25:16- Rodney.
- 25:18- Do you reckon he knows Del Boy?
- 25:21- No.
- 25:22Corinne's not the sort to broadcast it.
- 25:24♫ I thought I saw a puddy cat
- 25:28♫ A creeping up on me
- 25:31Mouthy cow.
- 25:34- I was talking to Eye-talian Louis,
- 25:37he told me he sold you
- 25:38a flea-bitten canary for 45 pounds.
- 25:42(laughing)
- 25:46- 45 pounds?
- 25:48- What did I say then Del?
- 25:50- What did you say?
- 25:51- Don't worry Del,
- 25:53I've taken over the job at Denzil's flat.
- 25:55But it'll cost him a bit more now you amateurs
- 25:58have been playing around with it.
- 26:01- Do you know what Rodney?
- 26:03If that Brendan wasn't so big,
- 26:04I'd give him a right seeing to.
- 26:05- Yeah, so would I.
- 26:07- Well you're as tall as he is, Rodney.
- 26:10(studio audience laughing)
- 26:14- Well you can't hit a man of that age can you?
- 26:18- You alright gents?
- 26:20- How are you?
- 26:20Oh, you must be the new governor?
- 26:23That's right, Mike Fisher, pleased to meet you.
- 26:25- Hello Mike, Del Trotter,
- 26:27people may have mentioned me.
- 26:30- Yes, they certainly have.
- 26:32- Well I'm a popular character round these parts.
- 26:34Here Mike, could you just tell me is it true
- 26:37that the brewery are gonna have this place decorated?
- 26:39- Yeah, that's right, in the very near future.
- 26:42- Is it also true that mouth almighty
- 26:44over there has got the contract?
- 26:46- Well, let's say he's favorite,
- 26:47his estimate's by far the lowest.
- 26:50- How much is he doing it for?
- 26:51- Oh come on, it's confidential isn't it.
- 26:54- No, no it's not, no come on.
- 26:56Brendan and I, well I mean, we're like that.
- 26:58- I don't suppose it matters who knows,
- 27:00he's bragging about it himself now.
- 27:01He reckons he'll do it for a grand.
- 27:04- A grand?
- 27:05And who decides which estimate to accept?
- 27:08- I do.
- 27:13- Michael, could I have a word in your shell-like?
- 27:19I might be able to offer you
- 27:20a much better deal, my son.
- 27:23I could get this pub decorated
- 27:25to exactly the same standard as Brendan,
- 27:28and it would cost your brewery a mere 2,000 pounds.
- 27:33- Two thousand pounds?
- 27:34- That must be a tempting offer, eh, Rodney?
- 27:38- Yeah, well, he's a born businessman ain't he?
- 27:41- No hang about, hang about,
- 27:42look why should I turn down an offer
- 27:44of a thousand and accept one of two thousand?
- 27:47- Because of all the advantages it has to offer,
- 27:50like my specialized profit-sharing scheme.
- 27:54Let me explain how it works.
- 27:57The two thousand pounds
- 27:59would be dispersed thus,
- 28:02there would be five hundred pounds
- 28:04for vous and five hundred pounds for me.
- 28:09- What you mean I get 500 quid?
- 28:10- Oh yes.
- 28:11- Yeah, and what happens to the
- 28:12thousand that's left over?
- 28:14- We give that to the Irishman
- 28:15and let him do then job.
- 28:16(studio audience laughing)
- 28:20- You've got a deal, Mr. Trotter.
- 28:21- Thank you, Michael.
- 28:23Brendan, an I have a word?
- 28:25Who's a pretty boy then?
