Press clippings
I suspect that, here and there, Sykes and Edwards may have added certain impromptu comments to the script. Something about Sykes's irritated "Go oil your bat" and Edwards's comments on a recalcitrant buttonhole, "I thought there was a hole in there. I'll cram it in somewhere," sounded funnier not to say filthier than the original.
