Strange Conversations: Part One Hundred and Twelve

ME: Right, I’m going to hide this copy of Secret Diary Of A Call Girl before my parents arrive.
NICK: Yeah. What would be worse: your parents being offended or your parents wanting to watch it?
ME: Um, my parents wanting to watch it? Obviously?
I mean, is that not a daft question?

perhaps not just your parents wanting to watch, but having to watch it with them?

Oh, yes. If they just wanted to get a copy for themselves, fine. But watching Secret Diary of a Call Girl with them? No. Never going to happen.
I bought my mother, some years ago, a copy of Blackpool for Christmas—and it was a highly successful gift, because she’d not seen it and she loved it. But she insisted on watching it while Nick and I were still there—and it was much more explicit than I’d thought it would be.
