"Träume im Kopf, Musik im Ohr, einen Stift in der Hand."
Mr. Man im Buchladen. Einer der besten Sketche aus "Little Britain".
Owner: Hello. I did not know you liked books. Mr. Man: Hello. Yes, I like books very much. Owner: Are you looking for anything in particular? Mr. Man: Not really. I was just wondering if you had any books on mediaeval English music between the dates 1356 and 1390? Owner: Ehm... I can't see anything here. Margaret knows all the books. One moment. Margaret! Margaret! Margaret: Yes? Owner: There's a gentleman here who wants to know if we've got any books on mediaeval English music dating between 1356 and 1390. Margaret: Paperback or hardback? Owner: Paperback or hardback? Mr. Man: Oh, you know me. I'm easy. Owner: He says he is easy. Margaret: There should be one, over by the Mike Gatting autobiography. Owner: Oh, yes, here we are. “A History Of Mediaevil Music, 1356 to 1390”. Mr. Man: Sorry, I didn't grip in time. Mr. Man: Sorry, I gripped too soon that time. You may have to hold it. Owner: Right. Well, what do you reckon? Mr. Man: How many pages does it have? Owner: Ehm, 312. Mr. Man: Oh. I was hoping for something more along the 306 mark. Owner: Right. Mr. Man: Do you think the author might be interested in rewriting his work to cut it down? Maybe if you cut out all the “O”s, you might lose six pages there. Owner: I... I don't think so, no. Mr. Man: Maybe I'm being too specific. Owner: You are being a little specific, yes. Mr. Man: Ok. Have you got any books? Owner: Have I got any books? Mr. Man: Yes. Owner: Well, yes, we've got hundreds of them. Mr. Man: I'll take them, please. Owner: Oh, right. Oh. You, ehm... you must really like reading. Mr. Man: Oh no. Unfortunately, I'm blind.
Aber andere Szenen mit Mr. Man lassen darauf schließen, dass er nicht blind ist, und sind trotzdem sehr schön absurd.
Abgesehen davon kenne ich ihn persönlich. ;-)
Ein ganzes Jahr völlig ohne Absurdität und konfuse Interpretationen? Das hält doch niemand aus.
