Russell:
We had some KFC the other day didn’t we, Jon?
Jon:
We did.
Russell:
In Paddington Station, sat waiting for the last train.
Jon:
Yes.
Russell:
We must have looked quite the sight – both tears in our eyes. Eating chicken -
Jon:
Edinburgh Previews...
Russell:
Well, Jon had just done a gig and my brother had been to see it. And er, my brother rang me up and went, ‘He’s gonna need some food’. Erm, so I went and got him some - like a lot - of chicken and gave it to you and forced you to eat it. Lovely fun.
Jon:
We had a little cuddle, didn’t we, on the platform?
Russell:
We had to. I could tell you needed it. Well, cause, I cuddled you and then afterwards you said, ‘I’ve just told people I’m going to kill myself!’
Jon:
Yeah… (Laughs)
Russell:
And I went, ‘I’ve got some chicken!’
Jon:
Tricky end to a gig, that! ‘Where are you off?’, ‘Oh, I’m going to go home and cut myself, although probably just bottle it and draw a face on my stomach again!’
Russell:
(Pause) What?!

“While I may not say boo to a goose, I did tell a swan to “fuck off” during a walk in the Lake District a couple of years back.”

— Jon Richardson, It’s Not Me, It’s You

I can’t be the only one to wonder whether this is some sort of strange call back to Russell’s 2005 material about the saying “boo to a goose”.

Or whether I’m just reading into it and it’s just a coincidence…

Martin:
Hey, I just met you
Martin:
And this is crazy
Martin:
But m-my name is Captain Martin Crieff. Though that doesn’t matter. It’s all very informal here. Just call me Martin. Well, in- in the context of this meeting, anyway. If you actually see me in person it’s probably best that you do call me Captain Crieff. Or just captain. Just protocol, I’m afraid. Um, if it was up to me, you could call me… Marty... No, no, actually, no, no, let’s not confuse things. Definitely don’t ever call me Marty. Right. So. To recap: hello, I am Captain Martin Captain- Captain Crieff, Crieff, I mean!
Martin:
Can I start again?
