Top Rank

CLIVE:
I was down the, er, Top Rank ballroom the other day.
DEREK:
Oh, yeah?
CLIVE:
Yeah, with-, you know, with the lads .....
DEREK:
Yeah.
CLIVE:
..... and, er, brought the wives along, you know.
DEREK:
Social occasion.
CLIVE:
Well, made it social, you know, nice to have the birds there, you know, they've .....
DEREK:
Oh, yeah.
CLIVE:
..... got things to talk about, haven't they? You know .....
DEREK:
Yeah.
CLIVE:
Women's talk, anyway, yeah .....
DEREK:
Yeah, nice.
CLIVE:
I was talking to the lads, I'd been up to the, er, football, you know.
DEREK:
Oh, errr, which? Norwich and, er, Tottenham?
CLIVE:
Norwich - Tottenham, yeah.
DEREK:
Yeah.
CLIVE:
Fucking awful game, that.
DEREK:
Yeah-h.
CLIVE:
Norwich are a team of f**king w**kers, 'in't they?
DEREK:
Yeah, right.
CLIVE:
Fucking w**kers, those Norwich. You-, did you-, d'y-, you see the game?
DEREK:
No, I was-, I was w**king that afternoon. I couldn't come .....
CLIVE:
Oh, yeah, couldn't make it, yeah. Well, I-, I was down to be w**king but, erm, you know, I got a call from a friend and, er, you know, thought best to go along.
DEREK:
Yeah, right, well, .....
CLIVE:
Anyway, I was down the Top Rank ballroom, any case, .....
DEREK:
Yeah.
CLIVE:
..... I was talking to Sid, you remember Sid who, erm, .....
DEREK:
Yeah, who .....
CLIVE:
..... married to Doris.
DEREK:
Right, yeah.
CLIVE:
And, er, I suddenly turned round - f**k me, I saw the wife!
DEREK:
Well, was that-, was that, er, surprising?
CLIVE:
No, no, it's not surprising, what was happening to the wife was surprising. I turned round, saw the wife, f**king great gorilla f**king her arse off.
DEREK:
No!
CLIVE:
I thought, "Fuck me!"
DEREK:
Fucking hell!
CLIVE:
I said, "What's going on?"
DEREK:
Yeah. Well, you would.
CLIVE:
I said, "Who do I turn to?" You know, "Who do I f**king get in touch with?"
DEREK:
Yeah.
CLIVE:
I pay five shillings to come to the Top Rank ballroom .....
DEREK:
Yeah. And then you've .....
CLIVE:
..... have a civilised conversation, I turn round, there's a f**king gorilla f**king the arse off my f**king wife!
DEREK:
Christ!
CLIVE:
I thought, "Fuck me! I mean, who do I get in touch with?"
DEREK:
Right, yeah, you must have been in a state of near panic.
CLIVE:
Yeah, well, you know, I've got pride.
DEREK:
Yeah.
CLIVE:
I'm not going to allow, er, ANYBODY, let alone a gorilla, you know, just, er, f**k the arse of my wife like that.
DEREK:
Yeah. So what did you do?
CLIVE:
Well, I turned to Sid, I said, "Sid, look! Fucking gorilla f**king my f**king wife!" He said, "Fucking hell, she f**king is being f**ked by a f**king gorilla, f**k me!" He said, "You should get in touch with the top man, .....
DEREK:
Right.
CLIVE:
..... the manager."
DEREK:
Yeah.
CLIVE:
So I went straight up, you know, I stormed up. 'Cause let's f-, I've got a temper, you know, .....
DEREK:
Yeah, I know.
CLIVE:
I-, I-, I'm human!
DEREK:
Well, I wouldn't like to be on the end of it.
CLIVE:
I'm human. I knocked on the manager's door - no reply.
DEREK:
Yeah.
CLIVE:
Well, I wasn't taking 'no reply' for an answer. So I stormed straight in and there he was: stark naked on the floor with an ant sucking his left nipple.
DEREK:
Oh no! Oh, f**king hell!
CLIVE:
And I said to him, with all the dignity I could muster, I said, "Is this a way to run a f**king ballroom?"
DEREK:
RIGHT!
