OK, you know the score by now. I ring up one these quiz call it’s a con cos it costs so much money to ring in and you pay for every call even if you dont get on but it’s not a con because they put the rules on the screen so take responsibility for your own actions type shows and give the same answer every time…is it Ghostbusters 2′
Well, I saw this lady and thought she’d be up for a laugh. She seemed nice and chatty and had the whitest teeth I have ever seen. I was wrong. She got well pissed off. So annoyed with me was she, that she kept banging on about me for ages.
This was meant to be a one call in affair and then I was going up the wooden hill to Bedfordshire, but she was SO angry with me that I had to call in again. And I do hope you like my ‘other’ voice - the one I use when I don’t wish to be recognised.
There are 2 interesting points about this one. Firstly, she thinks she knows who I am and calls me Jean Claude or Paul Whatever. Interesting and obviously wrong. Then her Christian upbringing kicks in and she starts referring to me as Lucifer! Wow.
The other point is that to get on, you speak to a producer who takes your answer and then puts you through. Obviously, you need to give this person a real answer. In this particular game, you have to fill in the blanks ‘Something ad Something’ - my answer on the second time I tried to get on was Turner and Hooch. And would you believe those words went on to win £50! Oh well, the kids will just have to eat another week.
This was recorded in the early hours of the morning of the night formerly known as Sunday 7th January 2007.
