How?! And we're loving Ferragamo pumps and tassel brogues.
Yeah.
I love pumps, I love wearing pumps.
No, Eddy, darling.
Why? No, not flats on you.
Why? Mrs Pepperpot.
Oh! Thank you.
Thank you for making me feel good about myself, at a time in my life, darling, when every fat cell I've ever lost or gained has come back for the fat cell reunion of the year.
I don't suppose even the credit crunch can tighten YOUR belt! SIZZLING Ow! Thank you, Pats.
What's happening, what's happening? Darling, what's happening? Who are all these people? Darling, who ARE all these people? Mum, I don't know.
Ask me, darling.
Who are all these people? I don't know! They're just no-names, nobodies, sweetheart.
Look, there's a new disease called the Kardashians, darling.
It's just sort of spread.
Like herpes.
Yeah.
Each one with its own reality show.
Yeah.
They're multiplying like head lice.
Yeah.
Darling, look at this fat one at the end.
Very soon, she will split like an amoeba and become TWO Kardashians.
That looks like a boob.
In fact, it's just another Kardashian.
It's another Kardashian.
I'm not interested.
I meant, what's been happening in the real world? Ooh! They got married! The nation's sweethearts, Katie and Wills.
Oh, my God, the Royal Wedding! Did you record it, Mum? No.

It only takes one person to realise that's just a pane of glass, darling.
Just a pane of glass.
Oh, darling, the real news is Patsy and I have been banned from Club 54 in Saint-Tropez.
Unfairly.
Ridiculous! I mean, all I did was I hugged Elton John, darling, and didn't realise he was breast feeding his baby, that's all.
You ran at him, Eddy.
Yes, I was running, yes.
But I slipped on the lactation.
I couldn't stop myself.

Why? Mrs Pepperpot.
Oh! Thank you.
Thank you for making me feel good about myself, at a time in my life, darling, when every fat cell I've ever lost or gained has come back for the fat cell reunion of the year.
I don't suppose even the credit crunch can tighten YOUR belt! SIZZLING Ow! Thank you, Pats.
What's happening, what's happening? Darling, what's happening? Who are all these people? Darling, who ARE all these people? Mum, I don't know.

They're multiplying like head lice.

Darling, look at this fat one at the end.
Very soon, she will split like an amoeba and become TWO Kardashians.
That looks like a boob.
In fact, it's just another Kardashian.
It's another Kardashian.
I'm not interested.
I meant, what's been happening in the real world? Ooh! They got married! The nation's sweethearts, Katie and Wills.
