[00:01.080] --- Lesson 89 A slip of the tongue
[00:07.560] --- First listen and then answer the question.
[00:13.720] --- Who made the only funny joke that evening and why?
[00:20.520] People will do anything to see a free show -- even if it is a bad one.
[00:27.160] When the news got round that a comedy show would be presented at our local cinema by the P. and U. Bird Seed Company,
[00:37.080] we all rushed to see it.
[00:40.080] We had to queue for hours to get in and there must have been several hundred people present just before the show began.
[00:49.960] Unfortunately, the show was one of the dullest we have ever seen.
[00:55.480] Those who failed to get in need not have felt disappointed, as many of the artistes who should have appeared did not come.
[01:05.280] The only funny things we heard that evening came from the advertiser at the beginning of the programme.
[01:12.840] He was obviously very nervous and for some minutes stood awkwardly before the microphone.
[01:21.000] As soon as he opened his mouth, everyone burst out laughing.
[01:27.320] We all know what the poor man should have said, but what he actually said was:
[01:34.520] 'This is the Poo and Ee Seed Bird Company. Good ladies, evening and gentlemen!'^“
[01:43.680] --- end
