Jobs from hell
Three friends on a train to Leicester have been discussing previous employment.
JONATHAN:
Go on Isa, tell them about your mate.
ISA:
Oh this is horrible. Poor girl! My mate is a hairdresser for TV and films and stuff and she got a job working on Castaway...Not the one with Tom Hanks, the other one. Remember?
MATT:
Oh yeah! The one with Olly Reed. They stay on a desert island and whatsername... had her kit off almost all the way through it....Amanda Donahoe!
ISA:
That's it! Anyway , my mate thought it was going to be a cushy number. On location on a beautiful desert island with nothing much to do but add a few blond streaks to Amanda Donahoe's hair every now and again. What she hadn't realised was that Oliver Reed was appearing nude almost all the way through the film and the character he was supposed to be playing was a redhead...
MATT:
Oh god!
ISA:
Yup! So, everyday for about two months, my poor old mate has to put Oliver Reed's thingy inside a little plastic bag and dye his pubic hair red. With her fingers this is, 'cos she ran out of placky gloves. Can you imagine? She was still trembling for weeks after she got back.
