I bump into my good friend and Julia Roberts’ brother actor Eric Roberts, currently in London essaying villainy in the next Batman movie.
“Visited any call girls, darling?” I ask. “They’re very fashionable right now what with Billie Piper stretching her snatch as the Belle de Jour tart on TV.”
“Nah – but everyone needs sex, y’know. They should legalise prostitution – it would make it more affordable.”
“I soooooooo agree,” I say. “The state loses a fortune in unpaid National Insurance, too.”
“Y’know I run a call girl service – nah, just kiddin’!”
I giggle. “How’s Julia? She played a very nice call girl in Pretty Woman.”
“She played a prostitute who never put out - amazing. Man, that movie should have been a sitcom.”
“Oh Eric, you’re incorrigible – she’ll be so cross to read that.”
“I’m over-paid, over-respected and I’m over here, that’s all I know.”
"You're playing the villain in Batman then."
"I love playing villains - you get the best cars, the best clothes, the best women - and then you get to die."

Wow, classy ! You could have asked him how he managed to escape the H.G.C. (Hollywood Gay Curse) Halperin talks about.
