Ricky
Oh, well, it's that time now. Yeah, it's the big one. Oh, Chimpanzee That monkey news.
 
 
 
Karl
It was this, this fella, right, who, uh, he had a problem with his eyes, right?
 
 
 
Steve
Yeah.
 
 
 
Karl
So, uh, he goes to the doctors and he goes, "I've got problem with my eyes." And he goes, "Yeah, they bad them," right? He goes, uh, it was in America, you know, like how you have to pay for medical stuff and all that? And the doctor said, "Oh, if I fix them, it's going to be like ten grand," right? He's like, "But I haven't got the money, doctor." He goes, "Well, I can't help you then. You know, there's a lot of people with bad eyes like them. Can't do anything for you." So he goes, "Oh, it's getting worse." "Can't do anything." So anyway, so he goes home.
 
 
 
Ricky
Is that the price of human eyes, is it?
 
 
 
Karl
So he goes home, he's looking in the paper, right? And he sort of sees in the adverts at the back and there's a little advert there saying, cheap doctors, right?
 
 
 
Ricky
No. Bollocks. No.
 
 
 
Karl
So he's thinking, oh, maybe that's, maybe that's what I, maybe that's what I need, right? So he calls him up. Woman's there, she's like, "Alright, what can I do?" He goes, "I've got bad eyes and that." She's like "Come in tomorrow, we'll sort them out." He's like, "Brilliant, I'll see you then." Right? So he goes down there and he says, "Right, you know, I can hardly see. My eyes have got in really bad state and what have you. Need to have him sorted out? I don't know what you do, whatever you do, I need doing."
 
 
 
Steve
His eyes are so bad. Can he see the doctors?
 
 
 
Karl
Not really, he's sort of squinting and that. But, you know, so he's like, "Do I need to see the doctor to, you know, have a word and tell them what problems?" She's like, "No, don't worry about that."
 
 
 
Ricky
I'd be comfortable if it's a-
 
 
 
Karl
Just, just, you know, just let me inject you and we'll knock you out and we'll get on with it.
 
 
 
Steve
Get on with it, get the doctor in.
 
 
 
Ricky
Can I just tell you something about chimps as well, just before you continue? You know, they don't have opposable thumbs?
 
 
 
Steve
Now why are opposable thumbs useful, Ricky?
 
 
 
Ricky
Well, to grip something, to do anything, like, you know, even simple stuff like writing, let alone surgery. So without an opposable thumb-
 
 
 
Steve
But can I just check now? So if I was a doctor and I was doing any form of difficult surgery, would I need opposable thumbs?
 
 
 
Ricky
You'd need opposable thumbs. And without you couldn't do anything. You could-
 
 
 
Steve
Thanks for clearing that up.
 
 
 
Ricky
Because the opposable thumb allowed something in our evolution called the precision grip. So without that, you couldn't do anything.
 
 
 
Steve
I'm just glad we've got that cleared up. Thanks.
 
 
 
Karl
So anyway, so he's had the injection, he's nodding off and what have you, right? His eyes are sort of closing and that. He hears the door open. He sort of just sees this little fella come in and he's like, "Hello, doctor." He's trying to, like, make a chat with it, but like he's just nodding off.
 
 
 
Ricky
It?
 
 
 
Karl
No he's just-
 
 
 
Ricky
I would never call a doctor 'it'! These people have done seven years medical training.
 
 
 
Steve
Deeply respected people.
 
 
 
Ricky
How could you call it 'it'?
 
 
 
Karl
So anyway, he thought, oh, it's weird he didn't answer but, you know, doctors can be quite moody, you know, they're highly intelligent.
 
 
 
Ricky
Especially little hairy ones.
 
 
 
Karl
They don't need just idle chit chat. There's no room for that, do you know what I mean? It's like, I'm here to do a job.
 
 
 
Ricky
Yeah but if I, if I'm going in to have my eyes done, I want a little bit of idle chimp chat.
 
 
 
Karl
So anyway, time passes, right? He sort of wakes up and he opens his eyes, right? And it's brilliant. He can't believe it.
 
 
 
Steve
Eyes are perfect?
 
 
 
Karl
He's had the op. He can't believe the sight. He's like, "Nurse!" Right? And the nurse comes in. He goes "I can't believe it. This is brilliant. I've never had this such good sight, you know? I mean, even when I was a baby."
 
 
 
Ricky
Yeah.
 
 
 
Karl
And my eyes were new, I didn't see this good.
 
 
 
Ricky
Great.
 
 
 
Karl
So she's like, well, you know, that's what-
 
 
 
Ricky
He realised the nurse is a panda.
 
 
 
Karl
That's, that's what we do, right? So he said, "Right, so can I just see the doctor and just say thanks and that?" She's like, "Well, to be honest, you know, he's specialised in what he does." There's a lot-
 
 
 
Ricky
A load of bollocks this is getting.
 
 
 
Steve
Please.
 
 
 
Ricky
Where did you get this from?
 
 
 
Steve
No, come on, let's hear the end of the news.
 
 
 
Karl
There's a lot of, there's a lot of, like, operations he's got to do.
 
 
 
Ricky
Yeah.
 
 
 
Karl
So, you know, leave him to it. He's just having a kip, you know. I'll let him know that you were grateful, you know, pay us a check. Off you go. Go and enjoy looking at stuff.
 
 
 
Ricky
Yeah.
 
 
 
Karl
So he says. He said, no, I just. What's wrong with that? I just want to see the doctor. Just leave it, just leave.
 
 
 
Ricky
No, that's fine.
 
 
 
Ricky
Yeah exactly, leave it if he says-
 
 
 
Karl
And he's like, yeah, but I can't, you know, I want to thank him. He's done such a good thing for me. So they're getting into a bit of an argument and what have you, and their voices are raising, right?
 
 
 
Ricky
Mmm.
 
 
 
Karl
Door opens...
 
 
 
Steve
They're going to wake the doctor up.
 
 
 
Karl
Well, that's what they did. They woke it up, right?
 
 
 
Steve
They woke it up?
 
 
 
Ricky
It?
 
 
 
Karl
So the door opens, right? Little monkey comes out-
 
 
 
Ricky
Oh...
 
 
 
Karl
And he's like, what's... what's... what's going on here? It's a hospital. Why is there... why is there a monkey knocking about?
 
 
 
Ricky
Yeah.
 
 
 
Karl
So the woman said, well, what do you mean? He's the doctor. So, so he's like, you are having a laugh, aren't you? She goes, look, don't complain. Your eyes are sorted.
 
 
 
Ricky
Yeah.
 
 
 
Karl
You know, the doctor's done it. What... what... what's the problem? He said, well, if I'd have known that, I wouldn't have come here. She said, well, what do you mean you didn't know that? She said, the advert in the paper you read, it said 'chimp doctors'.
