- What do you think you"re doing?
- It"s all right.

1:05:03
That bourgeois bastard.
He"s the kind that"s turned this scene...

1:05:06
into minks and Jags,
and little homes in Teddington.

1:05:10
Now, that's more like it.
1:05:13
Colin, are teenagers really as highly sexed
as we are led to believe?

1:05:17
I mean, if the right girl came along,
would you bother to tie the knot...

1:05:21
or is that just old square talk?
1:05:23
What the hell do you think you're doing?
These are my friends.

1:05:26
Harry, you're the toast
of Tin Pan Alley, I see.

1:05:30
I see also that you just recovered from
a very unsuccessful nose job.

1:05:33
Can you still smell success
in your teenage discoveries?

1:05:39
First of all, may I say how marvelous it is
to be on your show tonight...

1:05:43
with my latest discovery.
1:05:45
You know, my boys are always being
criticized for the way they move.

1:05:49
And it's a great shame we still can't show
what they do below the waist.

1:05:52
Amberly, I think
we'll bring you in here, now.

1:05:55
You have actually
taught teenagers yourself, haven't you?

1:05:58
Yes, Cobber, I did.
1:05:59
And I think it taught me a great deal.
1:06:02
I've always been a firm believer
in that old maxim:

1:06:06
"Spare the rod and spoil the child. "
1:06:09
Of course, the root cause of the problem
seems to be...

1:06:12
the unbridled promiscuity
they seem to have inherited...

1:06:16
from the colored influx to these shores.
1:06:19
And all these loud clothes
and jungle rhythms...

1:06:22
only serve to fan the flames...
1:06:24
Get your hands out of my trousers!
1:06:26
Who said that?
1:06:28
Colin, will you sit down?
1:06:29
Cut. Call the musicians.
1:06:31
I've got a message for you and you...
1:06:33
and all you telly witchdoctors
and advertising pimps.

1:06:36
Get that boy off camera. Get down there.
1:06:38
Sit down.
1:06:40
All you old sordids
with your toupees and your falsies.

1:06:43
Get off the set.
1:06:44
This teenage ball had a real splendor
in the beginning.

1:06:47
Cue Baby Boom, get on.
1:06:48
Because we found out no one could spit
in our faces anymore...

1:06:51
because we've loot to spend at last.
1:06:54
And our world will be our world,
the one we wanted.

1:06:57
But it's over now. Finished.
1:06:59
You choked it!
