The Young Ones1982
Neil:
Ah I wished we'd missed the train after all now. I'm not going to be answer anything, I just know it.
Rick:
Oh come off it Neil you little swotty-pants! God, just look at you. Swatting away for teacher like a total spazmo! God you're really just an utter creep aren't you? You've done loads and load of work for this, and I haven't done anything. Nothing at all! Go on... test me!
Neil:
What?
Rick:
Go on, test me!
Neil:
You just said you hadn't done anything.
Rick:
Stop trying to be clever, just take the book!
Neil:
Alright. But verbatim regurgitation is against my principles.
Rick:
I'm asking you to test me on it, not throw up on it! Alright, now do it properly and don't skip it.
Neil:
O-Level history notes?
Rick:
Yes! Bit of pretty bloody brilliant luck eh? We're doing exactly the same period as I did for O-Level.
Neil:
[reading from Rick's notebook] "Prick is a wonker, signed the rest of the class."
Rick:
Ha ha, yes, ha ha, no that was sort of an in-joke that we had in my form. Actually I was incredibly popular and everyone thought I was great.
Neil:
[continues reading] "... I agree with the rest of the class, signed teacher."
Rick:
[quickly turns to another page] Just test me on the stuff will you? [points] There.
Neil:
Alright, alright. Don't get uncool and heavy. [reads from a lesson] "Crop rotation in the 14th century."
Rick:
Right! [reciting] "Crop rotation in the 14th century was much more widespread..."
Neil:
[interrupts] "Considerably more."
Rick:
What?
Neil:
It's "considerably more widespread" not "much more".
Rick:
Well?
Neil:
Well you said do it properly.
Rick:
Well not that much you stupid, bloody hippie!
Neil:
You said do it properly and don't skip bits! How was I to know that wasn't important?
Rick:
WELL IT WASN'T IMPORTANT! Alright? Now shall we just get on and stop wasting time like this? Right. Crop rotation in the 14th century was *considerably* more widespread after... God I know this... um... don't tell me... after... 1172! [Neil is silent and just looks at Rick] Well, was I right?
