哦，仅此而已。严格限制。
Oh, there was nothing else. Strictly that.
哦，是的。我是说，那时候不是走廊式列车，
Oh, yes. I mean, it wasn't corridor trains in those days,
而是单节车厢，所以一旦我们离开布莱克浦，
they were the single carriages, so once we'd left Blackpool,
远离布莱克浦车站后，灯泡就会熄灭，
we were well clear of Blackpool Station, the bulb came out,
放在行李架上，从未打破过。
went on the luggage rack, it was never broken.
没有。快到乔利时，你会看到
No. When we got near Chorley, you'd see
整列火车一路亮起来。
the train light up all the way along then.
灯泡又装回去了！
The bulbs was put back in!
因为我们说的是1950年代。
Because we're talking about the 1950s here.
是的。对，对。
Yes. Yeah, yeah.
你们结婚多久了？
You've been married how long?
到周五，我们就结婚55年了。
On Friday, we will have been married 55 years.
布莱克浦非常受欢迎，铁路每周都会开通特别班次，
Blackpool was so popular that the railways ran special services
一直运营到凌晨。
every weekend, running into the early hours of the morning.
你第一次见到诺玛时觉得她怎么样？
So, what did you think of Norma when you first saw her?
嗯，她挺好的，是的。
Well, she were all right, yeah.
我当时其实看不太清楚她！
I couldn't really see her proper!
（两人♥大♥笑）
THEY LAUGH
我们在布莱克巷车站停了车。
We stopped at Black Lane Station.
你知道，铁路的边坡，像那样？
You know, the banking of a railway, like that?
有台阶可以下车站，所以...
There were steps, you see, to get off the station, so...
然后我抱着她跑上了台阶！
And I run up the steps with her!
他当时醉得多厉害啊！
That's how drunk he was!
什么，第一次约会？
What, on the first date?
是的。第一次见面？是的。对。
Yes. On the first meeting? Yes. Yeah.
你抱着她跑上台阶？是的。
You picked her up and ran up the stairs? Yeah.
然后我带她回家，就这样。
And then I took her home and that were it.
你像绅士一样送她回家。哦，是的。哦，对。
You walked her home like a gentleman. Oh, yeah. Oh, aye.
所以重点是为了认识女孩。
So the whole point was to meet girls.
某种程度上，是的。确实如此。
In a way, yeah. It was, it was.
如果没有"布莱克浦佳人号♥"，
Without the Blackpool Belle,
许多当地恋情可能永远不会开始，
many a local romance would never have started,
而还有什么地方比
and where better to go
宏伟的塔楼舞厅更适合跳舞到天明呢？
than the splendid Tower Ballroom to dance the night away?
巴里。
Barry.
"巴里·麦奎恩对布莱克浦的一切了如指掌。"
'Barry McQueen knows everything there is to know about Blackpool.'
欢迎来到布莱克浦。很高兴来到这里。
Welcome to Blackpool. It's lovely to be here.
你不♥穿♥这身衣服时是做什么的？
What do you do when you're not dressed like that?
嗯，现在这是我的比克斯塔夫先生制♥服♥，
Well, at the moment this is my Mr Bickerstaff uniform, this is.
这是我带团游览时的装扮，但我不♥穿♥这身时，
This is for my tours of the town, but when I'm not dressed
我是布莱克浦的官方镇公告员。
like this, I'm the official town crier of Blackpool.
听好了！听好了！有个著名的海滨胜地
Oyez! Oyez! There's a famous seaside place
叫布莱克浦，以新鲜空气和欢乐闻名。
called Blackpool, noted for fresh air and fun.
我们有一座塔、三个码头和一个欢乐海滩，
We've got a tower, three piers and a pleasure beach,
我保证这里永远阳光充足！
and I guarantee we've always got plenty of sun!
布拉德肖将布莱克浦描述为"爱尔兰海边
Bradshaw describes Blackpool as "a pretty bathing
一个美丽的浴场，游客众多。
place on the Irish Sea, much frequented by visitors.
"1863年，一座新码头开放，
"In 1863, a new pier was opened,
"成为最宜人的散步长廊。"
"which forms a most pleasant promenade."
在布拉德肖的时代，布莱克浦刚刚开始作为海滨度假地发展。
Blackpool was just starting life as a seaside resort in Bradshaw's time.
随后铁路开通，每年夏天带来
Then the railways arrived, bringing
成千上万的度假者。
thousands of holidaymakers every summer.
短短几年内，剧院、冬季花♥园♥
Within a few years, theatres, the Winter Gardens
和三座码头相继建成。
and three piers were built.
1879年，近10万人前来观看
And in 1879, almost 100,000 people came to see
首届彩灯节，当时被称为"人造阳光"。
the first illuminations, known as Artificial Sunlight.
如今布拉德肖的名字可能不为人知，
Bradshaw's name may not be recognised now,
但他的铁路时刻表曾家喻户晓，
but his railway timetable was a household name
维多利亚时代的人们还为他创作了滑稽歌♥曲。
and the Victorians wrote comic songs about him.
你今天要为我表演一个特别节目。
You are doing today a very special
是的，今天确实如此。
performance for me. I certainly am today.
我将和塔楼的杰出风琴师
I'm going to sing a song with our wonderful
菲尔·凯尔索一起演唱。
organist here at the Tower, Phil Kelso.
我们要唱一首叫《布拉德肖指南》的歌♥。
We're going to sing a song called The Bradshaw Guide.
这是首老式杂耍剧场歌♥曲，旋律相当抓耳。
It's an old music-hall song, quite a catchy tune, actually.
准备好表演了吗？我想我们该
Ready to give your performance? I think we should
开始了。我们还有观众呢！
get in there. We've got an audience as well!
所以我想我们该开始了。谢谢。开始吧。
So I think we'll get in there. Thank you. Let's go.
（掌声）
APPLAUSE
谢谢。请留步，别坐下，因为接下来
Thank you. And stay, don't sit, because here's the
要为大家带来波萨诺瓦舞曲。
next one for you this afternoon, the bossa nova.
迈克尔，热烈欢迎你来到
Michael, a warm welcome
世界闻名的布莱克浦塔楼舞厅。
to the world-famous Blackpool Tower Ballroom.
谢谢，祝你好运。非常感谢。
Thank you and good luck to you. Thank you very much indeed.
这个绝妙的空间，有着精美彩绘的天花板和灯笼，
A fantastic space, with this brilliantly painted ceiling and its lanterns
金色的装饰和外♥围♥作曲家的名字。
and its gold and its composers' names around the outside.
女士们先生们下午好，我得先坐下。
Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen. I must take a seat.
今天下午，菲尔和我要演唱一首
This afternoon, Phil and myself, we're going to do a song
关于铁路时刻表的歌♥《布拉德肖指南》。
about a railway timetable, called The Bradshaw Guide.
# 不久前我不得不去旅行
# I had to take a journey a little while ago
# 前往中部地区的某个郡县
# Somewhere down the Midlands The counties you must know
# 一位迷人的小姐坐在我身旁
# A charming little creature was seated by my side
# 问我能否借阅我的布拉德肖指南
# And asked if she could borrow my Bradshaw guide
# 这位女士正为健忘所困扰
# The lady was in trouble with absence of mind
# 她记不起这趟旅程的目的地...#
# She could not recollect a journey for the ride... #
如今看来，为铁路写热门歌♥曲似乎很疯狂，
It seems crazy to us today to write a hit song about the railways,
但布拉德肖的新指南书激发了维多利亚时代人们的想象力。
but Bradshaw's new guidebooks had captured the imagination of the Victorians.
#..桑德灵厄姆、阿尔弗斯顿或沃灵顿
# ..Sandringham, Alverston or Warrington
# 阿尔维迪斯顿和多切斯特或罗切斯特和拉伊
# Alvediston and Dorchester or Rochester and Rye
# 阿德灵顿和达灵顿沃灵顿和托灵顿
# Adlington and Darlington Warrington and Torrington
# 她定能在布拉德肖指南中找到答案#
# Sure that she would find it in the Bradshaw's guide. #
（掌声）
APPLAUSE
现在，我的布拉德肖指南里找不到的
Now, one thing I won't find in my Bradshaw's
是布莱克浦塔本身。
guide is the Blackpool Tower itself.
它于1♥8♥9♥4年开放，是埃菲尔铁塔的缩小版复♥制♥品。
That opened in 1♥8♥9♥4, a smaller replica of the Eiffel Tower.
花6便士，你就能登上500多英尺的高处，欣赏顶部的景色。
For sixpence, you could travel over 500 feet up, to enjoy the view from the top.
如今价格可能稍高，但这阻挡不了
It may cost a little more today, but that doesn't stop
每年约50万人前来体验。
around half a million people trying it out every year.
你以前上过塔吗？哦，上过。很多年前。
Have you been up the tower before? Oh, yes. Years ago.
很多年前。还记得什么？
Years ago. A lot of years ago. What do you remember of it?
就记得这个，还有顶上风很大。
Just this, and being very windy at the top.
今天风也会很大吧？是的。
I think it's going to be windy today, don't you? Yeah.
但景色很美。非常美。
Get a lovely view, though. Beautiful.
和你记忆中的一样？
Just as you remembered it?
是的，甚至更美。
Yeah, yeah. Better actually, now.
为什么？不知道，现在更懂得欣赏了。
Why? I don't know, you seem to appreciate it more.
小时候只顾着兴奋要上去，其实没好好欣赏。
When you're little you're just excited about going up and don't bother, really.
你上去时很小吗？大概十岁。
Were you very little when you went up? About ten.
刚开放时，游客得用梯子才能登顶。
When it was opened, visitors had to use ladders to reach the top.
谢天谢地，现在的台阶稳当多了。
Thankfully, today, the steps are a little steadier.
没有防护网，只有
There's no netting or anything and there's
齐腰高的围栏在四周。
waist-height railings all around the edges.
我跟着你上去。我会尽量克制冲动。
I'll follow you up. I'll try to resist the temptation.
请别跳！哦不，请跳...抱歉！请别跳！
Please don't. Oh, no, please do, sorry! Please don't jump!
千万别...你一定是我的选民！
Please don't... You must be one of my voters!
越来越高...
Up and up and...
哇！
Whoa!
在这里真得不怕高才行。
You really need a head for heights here.
风很大，栏杆也很低，但视野绝佳。
It's very windy and it's quite a low rail, but it's a great view.
布莱克浦和许多海滨胜地一样，充满怀旧气息，
And Blackpool, like so many seaside resorts, has that nostalgic feel to it,
但我遇到的人都非常热情，
but the people I've met here have been really warm-hearted
这座城市给众多忠实游客
and this town gives - to its many faithful visitors -
宾至如归的欢迎。
a really engaging welcome.
但对我来说，布莱克浦意味着每年秋天北上参加
But, for me, Blackpool signifies the Autumn trek north to attend
年度政♥治♥集♥会♥。
the political rally of the year.
这家酒店满载着我的回忆。
This hotel is full of memories for me.
我至少来过十几次保守党会议，
I must have been here for a dozen Conservative Party conferences
这里总是挤满了
and this place was always teeming
人群、电视记者和媒体人，
with people and television crews and journalists
我记得在那个楼梯上，首相
and I remember, on that staircase, the Prime
