cumberland






Name: Roy (Roidh)
Location: Emsworth
Question: Have you ever thought about getting a cat?
Answer: Don't think Cumberland would be very happy about that and, quite frankly, unless it was house trained, could speak the language and do the radio show for me, there wouldn't be much point. And Cumberland's got enough disgusting habits without some cat sicking up hairballs all over the duvet.

Name: Austin
Location: Denton, TX
Question: Where would you take Frankie on a honeymoon?
Answer: Somewhere dogs aren't allowed. Mind you, I'd have to pretend I'd lost my voice, though perhaps we wouldn't be doing much talking anyhow ...

Name: jack Casey
Location: Portnahapple
Question:How often do you stay the night at Betty's crib?
Answer: Huh? I never stay the night at Betty's, got my own bed thanks, even though I have to share it with Cumberland (who snores like a Harley Davidson going over Niagara Falls). Betty scares me to death; I wouldn't get any kip at all if I had to stay with her.

Name: Bob-Lee
Location: Ireland
Question: Can your dog really speak Welsh?
Answer: Why else would I put up with him?

Name: Lisa
Location: England
Question: How long have you been doing this programme for?
Answer: The radio show you mean? Well, not that I do it exactly, more sit in the corner like, while Cumberland puts his poncey music on. I keep slipping in a bit of heavy metal when he's not looking - that really winds him up. Can't remember exactly how long, seems like forever sometimes ...

Name: Matthew
Location: Bristol
Question: Have you got a girlfriend?
Answer: Yes. Frankie. Okay, she doesn't know it yet but one day soon I'm gonna ask her out and then ... well, all I can say is, move over Casanova!

Name: Jane
Location: Scotland
Question: What would be your dream job?
Answer: Almost anything where I don't have to have a snobby dog doing it for me. Tom Cruise's double would be good - I'd get all the foreign travel, glamorous film sets and stuff without having to do any difficult acting work. What d'you mean, I don't look anything like him?

Name: Martin
Location: Wales
Question: Give us some juicy gossip on Cumberland, you must know some.
Answer: Yeah, I did once find a piece of paper which looked like it said he didn't have a posh pedigree at all, but came from a rough part of town. Unfortunately, before I could read it properly, he snatched it away and microwaved it. Jacket potato and ashes are not a good combination either.

Name: Lee
Location: UK
Question: Top-tip. Trade in your car for a better one, then you'd get Frankie.
Answer: Rusty? Aw, I couldn't do that! Anyway, shouldn't a girl like a guy for more than just his wheels? (Please say yes or I'm stuffed).

Name: Ciara
Location: Derry
Question:What are you supposed to be doing in your job? To me it sounds like you think you're a know-it-all if you can answer everyone's questions.
Answer: Sounding a bit hostile there, Ciara! I'm "supposed" to be doing a radio show, but if you've been paying attention you'll know it's actually Cumberland that does it 'cause I don't speak the language. And no, I'm not a know-it-all, if anyone is, it's Cumberland!
