What did they say...?

[dannybaby1234]

Will download the ep, and try to get a transcript of what they said

[patroclus]

this isn't a complete transcript but basically he said:

'Yeh, but it's still the pictures, though, innit, only with better lighting and more food'

[dannybaby1234]

Yeah in a nutshell ;D

[Zathras]

I think I'll have to take your word for it . I lost count of how many times I listened to it trying to make it out, and the middle part still doesn't sound like anything to me. ;D

[sheepiefarm]

Patroclus has pretty much captured it correctly

"It's still the pictures though, that, innit, only with better lighting and more food"

[dannybaby1234]

Thanks Sheepie

[mycatfox]

It's extremely alarming the amount of dialogues that I miss That's why I really appreciate your recaps, guys Please, have mercy of this humble fan, and don't stop posting!


(What it keeps my self esteem from totally crushing is the fact that I'm not the only one not getting the talks: people from England, Ireland, etc. don't understand a shit either... ;D )

[dannybaby1234]

Will NEVER stop Posting ;D

Thank you!

I ventured over here and searched around the threads, just to find out what he was saying in that one sentence. ;D

It makes me think that I should probably rename this thread ( I didn't really give it a good enough title the first time around )

Perhaps... "What did they say?"... that sounds more suitable.
(I'll just wait for a few responses to hear what ye think first)

[dannybaby1234]

No, I like the name of the thread, I think it suits

I think that renaming it is a good idea And given the amount of viewers that have difficulty understanding the dialogues , I bet this thread will be wildly popular...

[dannybaby1234]

I see the name changed happened then

[sheepiefarm]

Good idea Nom

Even i have difficulty understanding everything (especially Jackson)

Thank god for download and rewind ;D

[dannybaby1234]

That's strange because I understand Jackson more than Aaron

Surely a lack of light is better for watching a movie?

Tell me about it

Please help with the Hazel-introduction.
I can't follow her after a lot better than the last one. Also the stuff about his father?
Thank you

[Zathras]

Here's my transcription. I skipped the early stuff with just Jackson and Aaron, and started right before Hazel came in. There are a couple of words I can't understand; if someone else can help with those, I'd appreciate it.


J: Are you ready?
A: Why? Should I be?
J: Well, no, it's just sometimes at first she can be a --
H: Blimey! I thought you'd have to send out a search party! I've been at the bar next door. Oh, what a dive. Come here, you! Are we going to get this party started, or what?
J: Mum, this is --
H: If I'd have stayed in that bar much longer I would have had to chat up some bloke. I said to myself, I said, "Hazel, it is indecent sitting in a bar on your own for this long." Mind you, no worse than getting mistaken for his missus. No offense to the poor fellow. I'm sure his mother thinks his wonky eye makes him look all the more perfect.
J: Aaron.
H: Obviously. Well, sit down. Looks like you wanted(waited?) to take my order. You been burgled? Took all your decent clothes, did they? I'm only joking. You don't need to make an effort on my account. I know you boys like to make a statement. So, what's yours? Tramp in training?
J: Aaron, this is me mum.
H: You're a good looking boy. I'll give you that. If I was 20 years younger and you weren't, you know, I'd be climbing over this table.
J: Oh, God.
H: Lot better than the last one. Had a mouth like a septic stab wound, he had. Aaron, eh? High on vowels and high on scowls. [When] He pulls that face, he reminds me of your dad. Mind you, in his case, it didn't just end with the face, did it.
J: Mum.
H: Sorry. Lift the carpet, I'll sweep it under.
J: Leave it.
H: It's left! Do you talk, love?
A: Yes. Hello.
H: Cheers. Bring a bottle, eh? Your aunt Polly is driving me insane. I can put up with the 'round-the-clock Oklahoma soundtrack. She always had a thing about Howard Keel. I can put up with having to talk to her (). You know what it's called?
A: Steve.
H: Comedian. Howard the 6th. She's not been that lucky. Mind you, come to think of it, neither have they. No, I can put up with all that. Just. It's the rubbing. She makes me rub her in all sorts of places. I mean, I know her health's not brilliant, but ugh! Honest to God! I've been in Jamaica nearly all of this year. Ended up living with a bloke called Clive. 31 he was. Couple of weeks ago, I was rubbing coconut oil into his legs. Like great big ebony tree trunks they were. I said to myself, I said, "Hazel, this is the benchmark. Don't you accept anything less from now on." And now what am I doing? Back in the rain, rubbing osteoporosis cream into a pair of thighs that look like leftovers from a cheese (). No one dreams of that, do they, Aaron?
A: No, no.
H: So, are you going bald or is that hair cut by choice?
A: Uh, it's by choice.
H: Oh! Really? Mind you, having said that I might take you shopping some time. Buy you a hat. Thanks, darling. Right. Bottoms up!

I think she was talking about a budgie (parakeet).

Here are the gap fillers for the words you couldn't make out

hope this helped a little.
