| 0:27.0 | What floor, sir? |
| 1:27.7 | Do they still have them anywhere in the world, an elevator guy? I reckon they've got to, right? What was the point of them? Well, I don't think there was a point. They just pressed the button for you. But it makes something feel... Well, no, sorry, there did used to be a point, like at the beginning of elevators, because the doors weren't automatic, so someone's got to open them, someone's got to close them. Oh, right.

| 1:44.9 | Because it was the, he didn't fall downaff or Parliament. No, it's Parliament. Parliament? Yeah, it must have been in Parliament then. |
| 1:44.9 | Because it was the, he didn't fall down, but Parliament Station has, for those of you who don't know, like really fucking steep escalators. And it's on the ground as well. If you've never been to that the UK and it's like a London-esque elevator, escalator. I mean. big. |
