What? 'Put me on the speakerphone.' It's the minister. Oh. '..Inquiry.'
Can you speak up? Where are you? I'm still at No. 10.
They'll have an inquiry.
YES! Great!
Who are they gonna have? I don't know.
I don't know whether we get any say in it. But Lord Hibbert's very nice.
I was with him at the FA Cup semi-final last year,
and we both tried to make out we had a clue what was going on.
We've had this conversation before - the ideal person for an inquiry.
It was a dead heat between Eamon Holmes and Alan Bennett.
Tell you who'd be good - Lord Monkton. Lord Monkton?
LOUDLY Lord Monkton certainly is in the frame here at No. 10. Uh-huh?
Yeah, I'm with the PM's people now.
Hugh. Oh! ..Malcolm's just joined us.
Right, Hugh, um...the good news.
The PM's gonna approach the Right Honourable Lord Monkton of Cheshunt to head the inquiry. Good.
It IS Monkton. 'YES!'
OK, fuck off, you've a department to run.
Thanks. Thanks, Malcolm. Yeah, yeah. Thanks...
Seen this one? "PM Just Can't Kick The Abbot". Dreadful picture.
You look like a sales rep. They're Photoshop.
Surprised they haven't anything better to write about after,
what is it, five days now?
They'll stay on this. They want blood.
MOBILE RINGS Oh, hang on. ..Good morning, Malcolm.
I want you, Terri and Ollie over here right now. Not Hugh.
Do not bring Hugh to Downing Street.
'Put him on.' Yes, OK, hang on.
It's Malcolm. He wants to speak to you. ..Go on.
