Stephen Fry: The ghostly visitor conjured a scene before the miser's astounded eyes...
The Ghost of Christmas Pissed: Observe! The drawing room... and on the hearth rug - why! It's infant Ebenezer. A bonny lad in a velvet sailor suit. And there's his lovely young mother, regarding her offspring with a slightly worried look in her eye...
Ebenezer's Mother: Oh, infant Ebenezer. I wonder what you'll be when you're quite grown up. For Christmas we are sending you away to school at Eton.
Infant Ebenezer: Eton? Oh Mother, will I be bullied?
Ebenezer's Mother: In that velvet sailor suit? I'll put money on it.
Stephen Fry: ...The years fly past in a twinkling. And now we see the lad at Eton College. It was here that Ebenezer Scrumph made school history, when during a game of football instead of kicking the ball, the new boy picked it up, leapt onto a broomstick, shot into the air, oomphed the quaffle and to the dismay of the Slytherins, actually caught the Golden Snitch.
Stephen Fry (narrating): Come away dear listener... away from the cheery lights and merry throng, away to this dismal street, where we find a gloomy shopfront identified in grimy lettering as, 'The Music Emporium'. Although it is Christmas the establishment shows no sign of festivity. Within it's dank interior sitting and muttering to himself at his miserable desk, we find the proprietor.

Ebenezer Scrumph: Christmas? Don't talk to me about Christmas.
Stephen Fry: Yes, I... I wasn't talking to you.
Ebenezer Scrumph: If you're not going to buy anything get out of the shop.
Stephen Fry: I never had this trouble with Harry Potter.

Rosencrantz & Guildenstern Are Dead
anastasivictoria:
The PLAYER is upset because Rosencrantz and Guildenstern walked away from the actors’ performance: PLAYER (lost): There we were —- demented children mincing about in clothes that no one ever wore, speaking as no man ever spoke, swearing love in wigs and rhymed couplets, killing each other with wooden swords, hollow protestations of faith hurled after empty promises of vengeance...
