I’ve nothing against your right leg. ......trouble is neither have you. (one legged man auditions for Hamlet) One of my favourite sketches of all time. One leg to few as it was known and it was Tarzan not Hamlet. Peter I noticed that, Mr. Spiggott. When you have been in the business as long as I have you come to notice these things almost instinctively. Now, Mr. Spiggott, you, a one-legged man, are applying for the role of Tarzan - a role which, traditionally, involves the use of a two-legged actor. Dudley Correct. Peter And yet you, a unidexter, are applying for the role. Dudley Right. Peter A role for which two legs would seem to be the minimum requirement. Dudley Very true. Peter Well, Mr. Spiggott, need I point out to you where your deficiency lies as regards landing the role? Dudley Yes, I think you ought to. Peter Need I say without overmuch emphasis that it is in the leg division that you are deficient. Dudley The leg division? Peter Yes, the leg division, Mr. Spiggott. You are deficient in it to the tune of one. Your right leg I like. I like your right leg. A lovely leg for the role. That's what I said when I saw you come in. I said "A lovely leg for the role." I've got nothing against your right leg. The trouble is - neither have you. You fall down on your left. Dudley You mean it's inadequate? Peter Yes, it's inadequate, Mr. Spiggott. And, to my mind, the British public is not ready for the sight of a one-legged apeman swinging through the jungly tendrils. Dudley I see. Peter However, don't despair. After all, you score over a man with no legs at all. Should a legless man come in here demanding the role, I should have no hesitation in saying "Get out. Run away" Edited April 13, 2018 by Port Said Red 1 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Certainly I could not bring myself to click "download pictures" in my email client. Surely someone should stop the gas from doing this.

eardun Posted April 13, 2018 Report Share Posted April 13, 2018 I had the email as well. Glad I’m not alone! The 5 point preview was riveting, especially this bit which made me chuckle: "Blackburn have won the Premier League for example so managing them in League One comes with sky-high expectations - similar to managing Bristol Rovers in the Conference!" 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How did they get my email address? it it continues after May 25th GDPR data breach is the way to go... I was going to suggest the same! Pretty sure Wetherspoons have decided to delete their entire mailing list as how records were captured is so poor and they can't prove an existing business relationship so rather than falling in to the trap of breach, they have started again. Sit on it until GDPR - then give then grief! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
