E- Look, I have conclusive proof that the new number of the Beast is 834. P- What do you mean, 834? E- He appeared to me in a vision.. P- Rubbish! E- He was dressed in white... he had angel's eyes. P- A beast in white? E- Well, he's a clean beast really, he uses Ajax in his bath. P- Is he that type of beast? E- Oh, he's a devilish beast. P- I thought his number was 666. E- 666, well, everybody knew the number was 666. You know, it's all the who made films about it and... P- They got too many, uh, callers then, I suppose? E- It's boring really, you know [P- yeah], it's like Gregory peck and I hate Gregory Peck, he's a real bastard P- I know what you mean, actually, uh, E- I mean he's just one of those stupid film stars and he uh..

[background shout: nognio scuffnit taur!]

E- Nognio scuffnit taur P- What was that? E- Nognio scuffnit TAUR! P- I don't understand at all. E- That's really stupid [background: nognio scuffnit taur!] I ... I can't understand you.. speaking garbage! P- Are you talking backwards, is someone talking backwards over there? E- I mean some people just [background: nognio scuffnit taur!] P- Some people are just, uh, like that, you know? E- Some, some people just talk nothing but garbage, really, P- I know, yeah I know the feeling. E- you know, I mean, you know, I was walking down the street [P- were you?] and someone yelled zhnithniak at me... P- zhnithniak? E- ...and it was a really peculiar thing to say, it just didn't make any sense at all... P- Well, you know some strange people though don't you though, really, when it comes down to it. E- ahh who knows ... peculiar .. P- I know. E- Y'know, sort of angels, beasts... Y'know, some goblins came along in these hobnailed boo- P- It's a strange old world, isn't it... yeah shall we have a cup of tea? E- Oh, I'd love some tea, actually, yes, 'ts, yes a ... Mm ahhh ... I do like, I do love tea... bang on a cup, actually, where's a spoon? Oh, that's great, thanks [tea noises, spoon banging, etc] P- Find it very hard to swallow, actually, when I'm uh E- Any other spurious noises we could make, it... Is there any other sort of sounds that we could could make... that would sound totally convincing, that this is... a real conversation? P- Well, we could try the ... uh, yeah, try to set fire to somebody. [Edward finishes talking] P- What would Graham sound like when you set fire to him? E- Oh, I think he'd scream a bit, actually, y'know, sort of. P- Mm, would he scream, Graham? E- Yeah, w... w.. would he go Nognio scuffnit taur? P- heh heh ... he might well do, you never know. E- I mean, yeah, ha ha ... HA HA .. yeah, it's quite possible, really, but... P- this is a bit sacreligious right through young guitar solo, you know. E- Ha ha, y'know, no.. P- Tends to be pouring his heart out to the world now... E- Well there's my keyboards too, actually. P- Oh yeah? E- Y'know, y, you don't care about my keyboards at all. P- Oh, I ignore your keyboards. E- I know... P- I've always- I've always ignored your keyboards. E- n' he, that, that bastard doesn't know, I mean, what a bastard--What do you think about keyboards, [pause, possibly a response beyond mic range] E- Oh, cheek! P- Sound better backwards, anyway, give you that. E- I'm really annoyed, actually... I li- I like them forwards. P- Bloody long track, isn't it? Really goes on. E- Incredibly long... I know, but ... that's life really, y'know ... P- Dorca, what's that? ... what? E- Dorca? P- dorca. E- I, I don't understand... don't understand your BANTER, old chap. P- I dunno. It's... it's ending now, I think, thank goodness. E- Y'know, it, it see- it seems quite likely it's actually finishing now... hehehehe...
