It's OK, just go to the tailor.
What, the tailor who beat the shit out of me cos I was wearing my mum's pants? Shall I stick a live wasp up my knob as well, Jo? Oh, no, don't do that.
Look, I just presumed you guys wouldn't want to come.

I'd like a suit, please.
" No, he remembered.
He definitely remembered.
Oh, Daniel, you are going to love me.
Problem sorted.
All right? What's going on? Oh, the product of my ball bag.
Gerry, my son.
- Hello.
- All right? You're right! He is a lanky streak of piss.
Yes, aren't I? - Your horse, Gerry? - No, it's just following him around! Of course it's Gerry's horse.
He's been nominated for Breeder Of The Year.
Small business awards.
Oh, I'm going to that.
- Oh, aye.
Good piss-up, 'tis, an' all.
- Oh.
Dan hasn't been nominated.
They haven't got a micro-penis category.
- What, bit tiny down there, is it? - Tiny? You could barely see it.
I thought he was a girl till he was nine.
- What, a little thin 'un, like? - Yes, Gerry, yes.
It's thin but there's no length there, either.
- Shame.
- Yeah.
Good.
I think we've established the size of my penis.
If you'll forgive me, I'll go in to the house.
- Stroke her, Daniel.
- No, thank you.
She's lovely.
Stroke the horse.
I don't want to stroke the horse.
Bloody hell, lad.
What's the matter with you? Stroke the bloody horse! Aargh! Well, this is perfect.
Well, what are you doing, playing with a horse? How was I playing with the horse? It was a trap, he planned it.
Wake up, old woman! I'm sick of these silly comments about your father.
- Gerry came to show the horse off.
- Yes, and now I've had my tit bitten.
Well, never mind.
No-one will see it under your tux.
- I haven't got a tux, Mum.
- Your dad's one.
What's that? Daniel hasn't got a tux for the business awards.
I said you've got one.
I have two! You could take your pick, my love.
- I'll go and get them.
- Ooh! - See? He'd do anything for you.
- He's up to something.
Oh, I used to think he looked smashing in a tux.
The fun we used to have at those Rotary Club dos.
Oh, in the mythical bygone golden era, when you could buy a house for £3.
None of you ever mention you only earned 10p a year, though, do you? Whitewash.
- You're so cynical, you kids.
- Bandage my tit.
Here it is.
This is the best one.
I never really wore the other.
It's a bit too '70s.
Wait a minute, you're about a foot shorter than me.
I can alter it, sweetheart.
Oh, look at her little eyes light up at the thought of menial work! Let me get the sewing machine out.
Ooh, exciting! Is, um, Mario not here, then? No, he go to get, um suite for business awards.

You sing? - Yeah! That's great.
You do know what I mean, don't you? Just a trim, yeah? - Trim, yes! - Cool.
See? You look nice.
You've done a really great job.
Thanks, Mum.
Does my hair look all right? I don't know whether you can tell.
I've tried to sort of bring it You look lovely.
Come and see your son! Ooh, I'll pop up and get your cuff links.
Well, well, well.
- Just leave me alone.
- That old suit's come up pretty well, eh? - Yes, it's good actually.
- Yeah.
Oh, we've had some rum old times, me and this suit.
It's just a pity we never really got the chance to have it cleaned, though.
- What do you mean? - Well, it hasn't been washed since the Rotary Club ball all those years ago and it saw its fair share of action that night! What? Your mum couldn't wait for us to get our clothes off.
- Aah - Literally! So it was a case of pop him out and crack on, so to speak.
It was here, it was here.
It was Ergh, ergh, ergh, ergh, ergh! Ergh, ergh! - Ohh, ohh! - And here's the finishing touch.
Forget it.
I'm changing.
- What? - I'll wear the other one! It's, um, Dan Davies.
I'm with Ames & Co.
I'll deal with this one.
Oh, no! Good evening to you too, sir.
Nice hair.
- Look, mate, I don't want any trouble.
- Ticket, please.
My friend's got them.
She's not here yet.
Oh, dear.
And it's a little bit chilly tonight, isn't it? - Look, I'm going in.
- You can fucking try! Oh! What a surprise! - Come to have a little look, have ya? - No, I was just Well, I haven't got my mum's pants on, I'm afraid.
Look, please, mate I bet you've got a lovely lacy pair under there, though, haven't you? You cross-dressing pervert! Nice little bra under that shirt, is there? No, it's it's a bandage.
I got I got bitten by a horse.
I'm watching you, you twisted fuck! Evening.
Hello.
You waiting for someone? Yes.
My date.
Oh, right.
What does she look like? You won't miss her.
She'll have the most ridiculous outfit in the room on.
Maybe she's made more of an effort than you realise.
Sorry, what? Surprise! Oh, my God! Jo, what the fuck? Nailed it! You said you didn't want Naomi to recognise who you were here with.
- Slam dunk! - So you've dressed as a man?! It's amazing, isn't it? I had it all left over from when I was a private detective.
- I wanted Naomi to think I had a date! - Yeah! And now you have.
Why would I want her to think I'm gay?! And if I was gay, why would I be going out with this?! Oh.
This is the most frightening thing you've ever done.
- I do feel a bit silly now, actually.
- Oh, my God! Look at It's a bit tight.
It's all I could get in the charity shop! Well, I'm not letting Naomi see me seeing us, like this! I'm going home.
- Dan! - Oh, Christ! - Hi! I thought I might find you here.
- Here I am.
- Oh, y-your hair.
- Yes.
Oh, well, it it doesn't really show.
It shows.
- Oh, no, it doesn't - It shows! Er, I'm sorry, I didn't introduce myself.
I'm Naomi.
How are you, Naomi? The name's Damon.
And how do you know Dan? We met in Ireland.
Apparently.
We did so.
We were just in Ireland, having the craic over there, and and now I'm just over here.
- Sort of Dan's date? - That's right, yeah.
Huh! No.
We're, um We're business partners.
We've started a business together.
That's why we've come here.
Great! Finally getting out of teaching.
Hopefully next year, win awards myself.
Oh, that's great, Dan.
So, what's the business? What? What business are you starting? It's, um Dog corks.
- Dog corks? - Yes.
Dog corks.
It's what? Wh? They're they're like corks? For dogs, yeah.
And what do they? The truth is, Naomi, no-one likes to see dog mess on the streets, so me and, er, your man here, what we plan to do is, er cork them all.
Yeah.
Oh my God.
But surely Yes.
You would think that palming a cork into a dog's arse to stop it from shitting would be both cruel and dangerous for the dog.
But, in fact, no, it turns out it's perfectly safe.
And, against all odds, a viable business! Right.
- Dan, you're bleeding.
- Yeah.
A horse bit my tit! Excuse me, sweetheart, have you got a minute? - I want to introduce you to, um - Um Oh, I'm so sorry.
Hi, guys.
Dan, Damon, this is Ben, - er, my well, my boyfriend.
- Boyfriend.
It is so nice to actually meet you.
I have heard so much about you.
Oh, good! Sorry, you are? He's Damon.
He's from Ireland.
Ah.
Your date? No! He's my business partner.
We're going to be sticking corks into dogs' arses for a living.
Unless, of course, I bleed to death from this horse bite! Nice to meet you, Ben.
Come on, Damon! Ladies and gentlemen, please take your seats for the 2013 West Regional Small Business of the Year Awards.
And please welcome your host - you'll know him from local weather reports from right across the county - Mike Bradley! - Thank you, thank you.
- Who's this twat? Don't you watch the local news? This is the weatherman.
that there's snow business like a small business! - He's a weather bell-end.
- Please! Just a little joke there.
Just lightning the mood! - And calm down on the cider.
- All right.
On a serious note.
Can I just say what a lovely chocolate fountain.
Winner of the Best Butcher Award is Big Dave Bowers! What's he throwing? It's bacon! Next up, the award for Best Hairdresser.
And the winner of the Best Service Award goes to Bob's Café! I'll get Bob if you're gonna muck about.
And now it's time for a very special award - the Financial Services Award.
- Is this you, Brian? - And to read the nominations, I'd like you all to welcome the sponsor of tonight's event, Ben Bradgate.
Oh, God, this is it! OK, guys.
And the nominees are Paul Johnson Financial Solutions.
Tony Gibson Accountancy.
And Brian Ames & Co.
Ooh, ah, ah! - Beef! Beef! - Whoo! Whoo! And the winner is Tony Gibson.
No way! You don't understand.
No, I'm sorry.
I'm not having this.
No.
Stop! Stop! No! Oh, my God! He's doing a Kanye! I don't want to do this, really, guys, but I'm so sorry.
Some things have gotta be said, right? I'm so I'm so sorry about this.
But I Listen, guys, I know he hasn't won, but I want to say a few words about Brian Ames.
I think he's the best financial advisor in the whole world.
This is just one more award ceremony and he hasn't won it, and I respect the judges, I respect the judges! But as far as financial advice goes, you're not going to get a better guy than the guy who's sitting over in that corner right now.
I can tell you that, you've got my cast-iron guarantee on that right now.
OK? I don't know who Tony fucking Gibson is! Good luck to him! I'm sure he can handle a fucking calculator as well as most men, but you want to tell me that Brian Ames can't do it better, you're wrongl And I'm sorry to raise my voice, guys.
You don't need to be a genius to work out that this is a quality event.
Have a look at the chocolate fountain.
But on this occasion, when it comes to financial services, we got it wrong! You got it wrong.
I got it wrong! And, guys, let's keep this award ceremony for us, can we? Can we keep this special award ceremony real and fresh and for the people of this town? God, I hope so! Look after each other, all right? We're a community here.
Peace.
All right? Naomi, I love you! Slip, slide! Um, well, thanks for that.
As most of you will know, Tony Gibson passed away last week after a long battle with illness, but his widow, Sandra, and his daughter, Louise, are here to collect his posthumous award.
My daddy was a hero.
It was very sweet of you, Dan.
Misguided, embarrassing.
I mean, ball-clenchingly embarrassing but very sweet.
Let's get some drinks.
No need.
Me and Barbara have sorted it.
Come on, Dan! Dan! Get a chocolate tache! Where's that chocolate fountain? Beef! That table doesn't look like much fun to me.
Barbara, you spoke! Yes.
I said that table over there doesn't look like much fun, does it? I'm glad we're on this table, aren't you? Yeah! I think I might be! I've always hated the slow dances, I never get asked.
I'll take you for a slow dance, Jo.
Wicked! I've had a right laugh tonight.
Haven't you? Yeah.
Yeah, I have, Damon.
I'll tell you what.
- This bra is actually killing me.
- Uh-huh.
What a surprise.
Aaaaaaargh! Aaaaaaargh! Aaaaaaargh! Oi! Everyone just calm down! Hey! - I'm the sponsor!
