Topic of discussion is one of the great British cult movies, Bruce Robinson's WITHNAIL AND I starring Richard E. Grant, Paul McGann and Richard Griffiths- and Robinson's follow-up with Grant, HOW TO GET AHEAD IN ADVERTISINGFollow Melly on twitterListen to NOWTHEN"Two riders were approaching""We want the finest wines available to humanity! We want them here! And we want them now!""You don't want freedom, do you? You don't even want roads. God, I never want to go on another train as long as I live! Roads represent a fundamental right of man to have access to the good things in life. Without roads, established family favorites would become elitist delicacies. Potter's soup would be for the few. There'd be no more tea bags, no instant potatoes, no long life cream. There'd be no aerosols. Detergents would vanish. So would tinned spaghetti and baked beans with six frankfurters. The right to smoke one's chosen brand would be denied. Chewing gum would probably disappear. So would pork pies. Foot deodorizers would climax without hope of replacement.""Man delights not me. No, nor woman neither. Nor woman neither."
