Question Of Port Vs Bashy (Part 2)
Part 1 was a riot. We continue Sian Anderson's latest encounter below, as she takes on Bashy in a Question Of Port...
No jokes: Would you rather shoot a kid or let off a nuclear bomb in central London?
I'd shoot myself.
That wasn't an option. If you're a solider in Iraq and your general tells you to do either or, you can't just shoot yourself.
I'd shoot him.
That wasn't an option either; if you shoot him you'd become an outlaw.
Well fuck it I'm an outlaw then. I can't be killing kids. Didn't you hear what Scarface said? [Extremely loud Scarface accent] "no kids or no wives man".
That was probably the most random outburst I've ever heard.
Sorry. [Scarface accent] "What the fuck man I said no kids or wives".
Congratulations anyway, you're now an outlaw.
I don't care, the fact that people have to do that daily is fucked up. That's why we've got wars for nothing.
Alright, calm down.
What? Listen to what you're saying. How could I kill a kid? I don't even like these questions. What kind of picture does that paint? Anyway the generals dead. I'm an outlaw, everyone go home.
Last film that made you -
Oi imagine that was your kid. What would you do?
I'd shoot the kid. Last film that made you do a little wee in your pants?
Manaman don't piss my pants - I'm a big man.
What was extremely funny then?
Argh, Hairspray, that was fucked up, had me pissing myself... with laughter.
Lucky Dip, Samurai sword, AK-47
[Laughs]. AK-47.
Why what does that do?
[Laughs] you know what it does bruv. It's rapid!
Most bizarre food you've ever eaten?
Injera. It's a pancake-like bread from Ethiopia.
Would you eat it again?
Yeah, it's not really bad but it's the weirdest thing. I can't really describe it.
Last person you saw naked?
You.
And three things you're listening to other that yourself?
Wait did you just put down you yeah?
Erm... yeah
[Laughs]
People have said worse. Where are you from?
London
Describe London in one word?
Home.
Three things you're listening to other that yourself?
I just listen to random shit. I don't listen to one particular thing. I hate these kinda questions I think they're wack.
Thanks
[Laughs] Nah like them questions like "where do you see yourself in five years. That's a shit question. I listen to a range of music. I don't listen to three particular things.
Okay...
Do I sound angry whilst I'm saying this?
Yeah.
Argh it's cause the shoot a kid question pissed me off. Not pissed me off, but it was annoying.
Let's not get into this again...
Nah I'm just letting everyone know, that's wack, but as I said. I'd shoot the sheriff. [Sings] "I shot the sheriff, but I didn't shoot the deputy".
You're a character.
Nah that songs basically what he's saying. See. That's why I just listen to Bob (Marley). If you've got problems, just listen to Bob. Remember I told you.
*At this point I can confirm that Bashy played three full minutes of Bob Marley - Shot The Sheriff via YouTube whilst changing the lyrics to. "I shot the general... but I did not shoot the kid", and laughing.
