Scenes with Gavin Cavanagh

1 scene

The day has come. Tonight pirate radio dies. From midnight, we are a ghost ship floating without hope on cold and dark waters. You have done almighty work here. Thank you. But your work is done.

Not mine, sir. I'm an American citizen and I don't give a hootenanny God damn about your nitpicking limey laws. I intend to broadcast from this ship 24 hours a day until the day I die. And then for a couple days after that.

Gavin Cavanagh

Not wanting to sound rude or anything, but don't you think that might be an ever so slightly monotonous experience for the listener? What do you say to 12 hours each, noble sir?

The way I look at it, the world couldn't survive without my comedy, and who's going to have the moral backbone to play the Seekers when the mood is right?

They've split up.

I intend to celebrate the back catalogue.

I intend to stop you doing so.

Mark
[silently stands up and lights a cigarette]

As some of you know, my wife left me after 17 hours of marriage, but I survived that because I live for music. And now, with nothing else to live for, I'm willing to die for it as well.

John

I've always lived for news and weather. Happy to die for them, too. Especially the weather.

Bob Silver

I've got nowhere else to go.

Harold

I have somewhere else to go, but it's Peckham. So I think I'll stick around.

Felicity

Can't let everyone starve. And I'm slightly worried where my increasingly powerful sexuality will take me when I return to normal life.

I've got a very strong suspicion that Felicity fancies me. Not about to go anywhere, just when I'm in with a chance.

Obviously, I'm in. You're the only people in the world who like me.
