When Louis Met... Chris Eubank2002

Chris Eubank:
I aspire to talk like Prince Charles, you see. Or Derek Laud.

Louis Theroux:
Why?

Chris Eubank:
Style. He's very stylish

Louis Theroux:
I don't think of Prince Charles as being that stylish.

Chris Eubank:
I think he's extremely stylish.

Louis Theroux:
Do you? Prince Charles?

Chris Eubank:
Well... you know what he said to me? He said to me one day "You know, Chris, I can't believe how much you've mellowed" And you know, there's no much character and Englishness in it, there's such a style, to me. I suppose maybe it's because I'm of Jamaican parentage... You know, I admire it, I think it's very stylish. Stylish. That's not what I am, I think it's stylish. And so I practise that particular style.

Louis Theroux:
And that's why - because you always go "Marvelluth"

Chris Eubank:
I don't use the lisp with that, though.

Louis Theroux:
Why?

Chris Eubank:
Because I know where I put my tongue and I don't put it between my...

Louis Theroux:
Say it then.

Chris Eubank:
Marvellush.

Louis Theroux:
Marvellush. Can you say "marvellous".

Chris Eubank:
[without his lisp] Marvellous.

Louis Theroux:
So the lisp is an affectation as well?

Chris Eubank:
No, no. If I speak quickly then I don't remember to keep my tongue above my inner two front teeth.

Louis Theroux:
Say "She sells sea shells by the sea shore"

Chris Eubank:
[slowly and not lisping] She sells sea shells by the sea shore. [Louis laughs] But if I say it quickly without thinking...

Louis Theroux:
Say "Chriss Eubankss"

Chris Eubank:
Chris Eubank.

Louis Theroux:
"Sss"

Chris Eubank:
There's no S on the end.

Louis Theroux:
I know, I just wanted you to say it.

Chris Eubank:
Oh right, I see. Well, you've got me looking silly a little bit now. [Louis laughs]
