Looking for Eric Page #2
- Oh, don't worry, this'll sort him out.
- What is it?
Dog's bollocks this.
What is this?
- Take it from me.
- Now what you got?
You been raiding
the self-help section again?
You wanna be banned from bookshops.
If you can open up your tiny minds
for just a little minute,
What Eric needs is laughter.
It's got it in there.
According to him,
laughter is the best medicine.
If you can make him laugh,
laughter, no matter whether
it's forced or artificial,
it makes you feel good.
Apparently it lifts your spirits,
it produces endorphins,
and all your body feels good.
If I was in Eric's shoes,
I'd rather have a good f***,
I'll be honest with you.
- Is that you volunteering?
- No.
I'm volunteering Jack.
Listen, what we're gonna do
is try and make Eric laugh.
Okay. One at a time. All go down there.
Tell him a joke, do a dance, do what
you like, just make him f***ing laugh.
Try and cheer the lad up, all right?
Do the best you can.
- All right, Eric?
- All right, Spleen?
Did you, did you hear
about the...
Oh, dear.
Need to do better
than that, Spleen.
- Hey, Eric. You all right?
- All right, Smug.
- Hey, two monkeys in a bath, right.
- Right.
One monkey turns to the other monkey
and goes...
- Like that, right? Right?
- Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
to the other one and goes
"Put some cold water in, you daft c*nt. "
- F***ing hell.
- Oh, f*** off.
That's not bad. It's better than
Spleen's anyway, weren't it?
Yeah, whatever.
- Hi, Eric.
- All right.
Hey, you're good at
crosswords, aren't you?
- Yeah, yeah, aye.
- Yeah.
Heavily laden postman.
- How many letters?
- A f***ing big bagful.
Yeah, yeah.
Stand in front of your imaginary mirror.
Yeah.
Stand in front of your imaginary mirror.
Think of someone who loves you
through their eyes.
Yeah?
Don't f*** about. Come on.
It's easy this, isn't it?
Have you had to have met them?
Do you have to have met the person?
Well, you...
You must have met them if they love you.
- Come on.
- Is there any way we can prep
- to get into it?
- You can f***ing shut up for a start!
I'm here.
I'm in front of me mirror.
Stand in front of a f***ing
imaginary mirror. Right?
- I am.
This might be hard for you.
Think of someone who loves you.
through their eyes.
- It's f***ing dead easy.
- Smug loves him.
No, come on, do it now.
- No, come on.
- It's all right.
Then gently press
the thumb of each hand
against the biggest finger...
- Of your own hand or someone else's?
- Not like that, is it?
No, your hand.
