Excerpt from the script:-

GRACE :   Hello listeners and welcome to this special show. I'd like to welcome Sir  Rupert who                  has broken his busy schedule to join us tonight

 

RUPERT : (TIPSY)What? We're on? Oh, I see - well thanks for inviting me and I hope we'll get                   much closer after the programme over a little nightcap.

 

GRACE:   ( MILDLY ANNOYED) Well er,  -  maybe later, we'll see 

(fade lights back to the production / sound booth.)

 

EDWARD: Oh no, that's not what we rehearsed. What is he up to?

 

MARGO :  Its simple. Look at him . He's pissed as a fart
