1 (SHE CACKLES) Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to Mrs.
Brown's Boys! She's Mrs.
Brown That's Mrs.
Brown Our Mrs.
Brown.
I wonder who Mammy does be talking to here in the mornings? Is she doing a Shirley Valentine? Hello, wall.
Hello, mug - (DOORBELL RINGS) - Hello, doorbell Doorbell! Can I help you? - Is this the home of Mrs.
Agnes Brown? - Yes, it is.
Why? Come along, Missus.
Good God, Mammy, what's wrong? Come in! We found her wandering around town in the cold.
She said she could remember her address but couldn't remember how to get here.
She seemed very confused, so we thought it best to bring her here.
Thank you, Guard.
- Come on Mammy, let's get you out of that coat.
- I'm fine.
Can you just leave them in the kitchen? - Maybe you should lie down? - I'm fine, Dermot.
(LAUGHTER) Wrong house! - Thanks again, Guard.
- No problem.
By the way Buster Brady called.
Hello! Oh, God, it's cold out there! By the way, don't mind me.
I'm fine.
Just it was freezing cold and snowing and I couldn't get a taxi and I'm fucked if I'm carrying all that shopping home on my own! (LAUGHTER AND APPLAUSE) (PHONE RINGS) Leave it! Step away from the phone! Hello? Oui.
Bonjour, Gaston! (SHE GIGGLES) Tres bien Oh, merci! "Ooh, merci!" Pardon, mon amour I'll take this upstairs, thank you! Eddie bee-dee, bom-bom, bom-bom! What's that all about, do you think? - Hiya, Mammy! - Hello, Rory! I just slipped out for a quick cuppa Get a bit of peace.
- Peace from what? - Dino.
He's doing me head in about the insurance claim.
What about it? There's paperwork to be done and he's just keeps going on and on and on I swear sometimes he's like a whingeing little girl.
Am I? Am I a whingeing little girl? I see! (HE WAILS) - (APPLAUSE) - Dino Hello, Betty Hello, Mark! What's that all that about? Rory dropped in for a really quick cuppa.
Oh, Ma are you happy with the rail? Oh, it looks fantastic on the stairs.
Lovely! Listen, is this the rest of the stairlift? That's the rest of it.
Grandad coming home from hospital.
I don't want him clomping up and down the stairs you know, - after surgery.
- No.
Cup of tea, Betty? (SHE MAKES POPPING NOISES) One, two, one, two.
- (SHOUTING) Tea, Betty?! - What? Oh, yeah, thanks.
Yeah, all seems straightforward.
I'll fit it tomorrow, shouldn't take more than an hour or two.
Good man.
(WHISPERING) What's wrong with her? School thing Bono.
- Bono? At school? What what is it? - Nothing she gets too involved I can hear youse, I'm sitting right here! It was him it was him! Right, Betty, let's go.
No, you go on ahead.
I'm meeting Maria here.
- We're going into town.
- See you later! - See ya.
- See you, Ma.
- I'll see you, love.
So, what's this about Bono? Mrs.
Brown, what do you know about bullying at school? Bullying? Well I was very good at it.
- What? - I'm only joking! I was just trying to lighten the mood (SHE CACKLES) Not fuckin' easy! - Joking about what? - Nothing.
- Tell us what's going on.
I think Bono's getting bullied at school.
- You think? - He's not saying but You know, I read that kids who are being bullied do that.
Well, they don't tell their parents they're being bullied because they don't want their parents to interfere in case it gets worse.
You could be right.
Well, he mightn't tell you, but he'll tell me.
Why don't you let me pick him up from school today? - I'll have a chat with him.
- Oh, would you? - Yes! - Great, more time to spend in town.
- Ah, I feel better now! Good.
Oh, and wait till I tell you what Dermot wants us to do - The Flintstones it's going to be great fun! - What?! - Come on, I'll explain on the way.
- Well, what, well, tell me! What? Oh, and one more thing, Mrs.
Brown.
- My mother she's on the school board.
- Yeah She's um what's the word? Bitch? - She's the secretary.
- Oh, right.
Anyway, if Bono names a boy don't get involved with them, OK? Of course not.
Just give the name to me and I'll pass it on to her.
Mummy will sort it out! Thank you, Maria.
"Mummy will sort it out!" I don't need Higglary or anybody else! (LAUGHTER AND APPLAUSE) Agnes! Agnes, are you here? Ah, she must be out.
Agnes, do you know something I've been thinking about.
I can't wait to hear.
How does a spy know when he's running out of invisible ink? He has a little invisible light on his invisible pen and it flashes invisibly.
- He's French? - What? Cathy's new boyfriend, is he French? I think so.
He sounds French and his name is Gaston.
Ahh, the first flush of love.
- Ah, the romance.
- The excitement! - The anticipation.
- The disappointment.
It doesn't have to be like that.
I said to my Redser, I said "Redser, as soon as we got married, "I want to have sex at least eight times a month!" - What did he say? - Put me down for five and a gobble.
(LAUGHTER AND APPLAUSE) Youse get a seat, I'll get the drinks! Barbara, would you tell Mr.
Brown that if the insurance forms are not filled out, there'll be no payment! If the insurance forms are not filled out, there'll be no payment.
Well, you can tell him that he should fill them out, so.
You'd better fill them out, so.
Barbara, would you tell Mr.
Brown that I'd like another drink, please? Dino would like another drink.
Well, you tell Mr.
Doyle that I'd like another drink, too.
(RORY HICCUPS) Rory would like an Ah, here I'll get the drink.
- Are you Betty? - Yeah, I am.
- Well, I'm Billy Curtain's mother.
- Whose mother? Billy Curtain He's in your son Bono's class.
Right.
So? Don't you ever threaten my son again! What are you talking about? Billy told me when you picked Bono up from school today, you called him a bully, and threatened him Today? - Well, is he? - What? - Is your son a bully? - How dare you! Ladies, this is not the place - Did you just touch my breast? - OK, I'm out! You have not heard the last of this, Betty Brown.
- I am going to the school board.
- Bring it on! (CHEERING AND APPLAUSE) So, Mrs.
Brown.
She's alleging that you threatened to stab young Billy.
- That is a lie.
- What did you say to him? I said, "I have skills" "Don't close your eyes when you sleep tonight "or I'll stick you like a pig.
" - What?! - I'm joking.
I told him not to bully Bono or anybody else in school.
I said it's not good and I told him he'd make more friends if he was nicer or I'd stick him like a pig.
For God's sake! What are we going to do now, Father? I think we need to get Betty and Mrs.
Curtain together and then try talk this out - I've an idea - I've a line before that! - (WHISPERING) She has a line before that - (LAUGHTER AND APPLAUSE) - I've an idea, let her do her line! - (HE LAUGHS) (OFF-SET) I think we'd better get Betty and Mrs.
Curtain together Is that not dangerous? Cos he for him to get it right once is fucking difficult.
Just blame the priest, that's what he's here for.
Yeah, that's what we always do.
He has his foot up my frock when he's doing it.
That's not my foot! (LAUGHTER AND APPLAUSE) I only thought it was your foot because there was a smell off it! (OFF-SET) And action! I think we need to get Betty and Mrs.
Curtain together and try talk this out I could speak to Mother, she's on the school board and she knows Mrs.
Curtain.
(MIMICS MARIA) "I could speak to Mother!" I've an idea.
Why don't we get her up here for tea and that way her and Betty can talk things through? That's not a bad idea and it keeps it away from the school and it would be very informal.
And maybe it would break the ice if we start the night by you apologising, Mrs.
Brown.
Right then, I'll speak to the school and tell them I'm handling it.
I'll ask Mother to speak to Mrs.
Curtain.
Right, that's that, then.
Mark, are you done there? Just about, I'll follow you out to the car.
- Ah! Very nice.
So when's Grandad home? - Tomorrow.
Lovely.
Right, God bless, Mrs.
Brown.
Yeah, God bless you, Father.
Go easy on those skates! Right, Ma.
It's fairly simple, the up arrow for up, the down arrow for down.
Thanks son, thank you very much.
I don't think Betty's too pleased with me.
Do you blame her? Why didn't you just leave things alone? (AUDIENCE) Aww You've messages there.
I I was only trying to help (AUDIENCE) Aww (ANSWERPHONE) You have two new messages.
- (ANSWERPHONE BEEPS) - Allo? Kitty, ma cherie, it is I, Gaston your love machine, my tutti little frutti I want to squeeze your Ya dirty bastard! - (ANSWERPHONE BEEPS) - Hello, Granny? Are you there? It's me Bono.
I know Mammy and Daddy are mad at you.
- But Granny you're my hero.
- (ANSWERPHONE BEEPS) (AUDIENCE) Aww (SHE SNIGGERS) "Man with five willies says his underpants fit him like a glove.
" (LAUGHTER) Morning, Mammy.
Buongiorno, Catalina! That's Italian.
He's French! Well, how do you say in French, "that's nice"? I'm not sure, Mammy, but I know how to say "Mind your own business" two words and the second one is "off".
- (DOORBELL RINGS) - Ouvrez la porte! You mind your own porte! It means "open the door" in French.
Well, if he gets his key in the lock, you make sure you have your safety chain on! - Johnny keeps you safe! - (LAUGHTER AND LIGHT APPLAUSE) Ah, welcome home, Grandad.
Mammy, it's Grandad! Hello, Grandad, welcome home! Come on, let's get you into your favourite chair.
Actually, Mrs.
Brown, I think straight to bed would be the best thing Oh, come on just as well we got the stairlift.
You're going to love this, Grandad, come on.
I'll bring you up a cuppa, Grandad.
Tea, Doctor? - Oh, I wouldn't mind a quick one.
- If it's a quick one you want, you're going to have to get a Frenchman's arse out of the way! - (LAUGHTER AND APPLAUSE) - What? Don't mind her.
Thanks for bringing him home, Dr.
Flynn.
Ah, it's no problem, Cathy.
I'm just glad it wasn't anything serious.
He looks well, Doctor.
Ah, he's still in a lot of pain, but this might help.
Bring ID when you're getting that.
Why would I need ID for a prescription? - It's marijuana! - The gangee? Medical marijuana.
Most of my patients find it very good.
He's Grandad Brown, not Bob Marley! - He doesn't even smoke! - He doesn't have to smoke it.
I mean, you can try him with a smoke but if that doesn't work, just stir it into some yoghurt, or bake it into cup cakes Well, I bow to your superior knowledge of narcotics! - Right, I'm off.
- Thank you, Doctor.
Mammy, I'll pick that up in town for Grandad later.
Ah-ha, are you going in to meet Crouton? It's Gaston! And no.
- When are we going to meet him? - Let me think Eh never! - I'm going that cuppa's there for Grandad.
- All right.
- Ah, hiya, Winnie.
- How are you, Cathy? - I just saw Dr.
Flynn pulling away - You should report that.
(LAUGHTER AND APPLAUSE) I see Grandad's home, then? Yes, he looks well, but he's in a lot of pain.
Oh, I know what that's like.
My Jacko had a bad back for years! I think the only thing wrong with your Jacko's back was if somebody mentioned work, he couldn't get it off the bucking bed.
Ah, Grandad, have you gone up and come back down again? - No.
- Are you stuck? - No, it's just moving so feckin' slow! There has to be some way of speeding it up Don't touch it! All right, all right, all right! I'll get Mark to look at it tomorrow.
He can't go up at that speed.
At that rate he'd be only up and it'd be down again.
Just like my Jacko And then he falls asleep.
- He was never like that with me! - (LAUGHTER) I can't get Grandad to take this stuff.
I tried putting into yoghurt.
No, he says he hates yoghurt so I'm going to try and do this bake it into chocolate brownies.
Add a soupcon? What the hell is a soupcon? Ah, that's close enough! (LAUGHTER) I even tried putting it into his tea.
No, it just sank to the bottom of the mug.
So this is my last resort.
Chocolate brownies.
Ah well, we'll see! I even have Buster rolling it into cigarettes but it's a waste of time Grandad won't smoke them.
Still, I'm prepared to try anything.
Any luck, Dermot? I don't know, Ma.
I'm after tweaking a few switches and stuff, - but I think I'm better getting Mark to have a look at it.
- Hmm.
- How many of these do you want, Mrs.
Brown? - Just one or two, Buster, I don't think he's going to smoke them anyway.
Right, Buster, let's go.
Bring your club.
- See you, Ma.
- See you, love.
Yabba dabba doo! Yabba dabba don't! (APPLAUSE) (LAUGHTER) I don't get it.
They don't have any (LAUGHING) They don't have any effect on me! (SHE CACKLES) (CACKLING) Please, Gaston, sit down.
Coffee? - Oui, but in a clean cup.
- (DOORBELL RINGS) (SINGSONG) Someone's at the door! So? (SLURRED) Well, open it and let them in! Excusez-moi, Gaston I forgot me club! Looks real, doesn't it? It's plastic.
Mammy! It's Betty - and Father Damien.
- (SHE COUGHS) Hello, Father.
Hello, Father Damien, do sit down, do sit down.
- Gaston is in the kitchen.
- Oh, can I meet him? Come on.
Now, his English isn't great.
It'll be better than my French! So, Mrs.
Brown Mrs.
Curtain is on her way with Mrs.
Nicholson.
That's nice.
I'm hopeful we can have a calm discussion and resolve this Yes Well, what we need what we need to resolve, Father is the bullying.
The bullying needs to be resolved.
Well well, yes, Mrs.
Brown let's try resolve the animosity with the parents first and then we'll go from there Yes Father I'm trying to stay very, very calm My nipple's on fire! (LAUGHTER) - So, what are you doing in Ireland? - I am minding my own business.
He means he's looking after his own business Kitty les chiottes bathroom? Just in there on the left.
He doesn't seem very nice.
Ah, he is it just takes time to get used to him.
(AGNES YELPS AND GIBBERS) This one! This one! This one! (SHE GIBBERS) - It's just in there - I'm fine Thank you, Father.
I'm just getting Father Damien a cup of tea.
Hello? Who the fuck are you? Mammy, this is Gaston.
Oh, Crouton! Lovely to meet you! Qui est cette femme affreuse avec les seins qui fument? Oh, stop it! He said erm, what a pleasure to meet such a lovely lady.
Ha-ha-ha! That's very nice of you.
I have to say Gaston, it's a pleasure to meet you.
We've heard a lot about you.

- Ah, not these two! I'll make tea.

Is everybody happy with that? I think it should be a secret vote.
- Mrs.
Brown shhh! - Thank you, Betty.
Now, one of the difficulties that often causes conflict is that each side thinks the conflict is about a different thing.
Am I right? Secret vote, please balaclavas no-one knows who you are.

- Yes, Kitty? - Argh! - (AUDIENCE WHOOP AND CHEER) Goodbye.
And arrivederci! (SHE LAUGHS) Here, did you hear the joke about the bully? No, you didn't cos there's nothing funny about bullying.
Being bullied isn't nice it doesn't matter if it's in work, in school or in a relationship or in the social media.
It's ugly and it hurts.
If you even think you're being bullied, tell someone anyone.
Doesn't matter tell someone.
Every day's a new day and you're entitled to face that day with a big smile.
He-he! I used to look at Redser beside me when I'd wake up and I'd just piss meself laughing! (SHE LAUGHS) I think did it again! Make yourself a promise from today, don't let anybody take away your smile.
Goodnight! (APPLAUSE) Say hello to the Queen of Dublin town As the best mum of all she wears the crown Mother hen watching all her chicks A sassy old lady full of tricks It's a safe bet she'd never let life get her down She's Mrs.
