My breasts abound...
<<Stephen Hello. Welcome to “A Bit Of Fry And Laurie”.Hugh Grrrrr.
Stephen Ladies and gentlemen, because Hugh and I are
known for our anger, our satirical rage at the
“human condition”, for want of a better cliche ....
Hugh Grrrr ...
Stephen We often get accused of lacking a sense of
proportion. Here’s a letter ... “It’s very easy to
knock, to rage and snarl and satirise, but what
are you suggesting should go in the place of the
institutions and people you so viciously decry?”
This is a typical letter from Mr Alan Dense,
absolutely typical. He writes letters like this all the
time ... “It’s oh so simple to knock Mrs Thatcher,
isn’t it?” Well of course he’s quite right. It is
ludicrously easy to knock Mrs Thatcher. It’s the
easiest and most obvious thing in the world to
remark that she is a shameful, putrid scab, an
embarrassing, ludicrous monstrosity that makes
one frankly ashamed to be British, and that her
ideas and standards are a stain on our national
history. That’s easy and clear, anyone can do that.
But after tonight, no one can accuse us of not
making a constructive suggestion as to what might
go in place of Mrs Thatcher. Hugh.
Hugh holds up a wire coathanger.
That is our constructive suggestion, and I hope
that’s silenced some of our critics. Anyway, on with
the blind, unreasoning rage.>>
