Mr Iger moodboard

Mr Iger grew up in a three bedroom, semi-detached house somewhere just outside London. He was born in the sixties, and so most of his teen years were spent at discos, which is where he met his wife. He is the youngest of five sons, and was babied by his mum, which would explain his submissive attitude towards his wife. He used to work as a journalist, however he was forced to retire when the credit crunch hit. His wife has him trained like a dog and keeps him on a tight leash, he even sleeps on a sofa downstairs. I thought his glasses could be his symbol, as they are something that he can hide behind.

Moth moodboard

Moth grew up in a dodgy part of London, played football on the streets and hung around shops with other kids. He now lives in a small, two bedroom, terraced house with Maudie. His bedroom has a purple and grey colour scheme as it was decorated by his girlfriend. He is unemployed and so he spends most of his time playing games or going down the pub. He doesn't speak to his dad and his mum died a few years ago. He is a gold digger, but he charms his way out of trouble. He has a lot of memories involving fights and trouble with the police. He can normally be seen wearing a football shirt, and he always wears a gold chain.

Evaluation of "Two"

Moth

• What do other people say about you?

Maudie: Moth. Moth she wasn't interested.

Maudie: I've had a good talking to by some of the girls at work today. And they've told me not to let you keep using me.

Maudie: Look at your eyes, they're everywhere, up every skirt, along every leg, round every bra rim. Why oh why do you keep chasing women!

Maudie: I'm the only woman on earth interested in you.

Maudie: You'll try anything won't you, just to get into my handbag. The romantic approach, the comic approach, the sympathy approach.

Maudie: You're romantic, like something on a fade. I love that.

Maudie: Well you can move.

Maudie: Ooo, another trick, you snide, you emperor of snide!

• What do you say about other people?

Moth: (to a young woman) You're beautiful you. You're absolutely beautiful you. Look at you. You're fantastic. I love you. I love the bones of you. I do. You think it's too quick don't you. But you can't see yourself. You're just... I'm in love with you, I'm not joking. I've seen some women, but you. Let's get back to what you are, beautiful. Did you smile or did someone turn the lights on? You are beautiful you. You stand for beauty. You sit for it too. Look how you sit, like a glamour model, that's how. You... You're quiet though, but I love that in a girl, love that, don't get me wrong. You're beauty you. Beauty itself. Beauty is you. You're marvellous as well as being beautiful too, you. Yes, too good for this place I'll tell you that. What's a beautiful girl like you doing in a place like this (...) you are a star, and you don't even know it. A star before you start. Everything about you's just... You are it. The beauty if all times. You're just beautiful and that's it. Done, finished, it. Because you are the most beautiful thing ever brought to this earth. And you're for me you. You are for me.

Moth: Of course I do. (He loves Maudie)
Moth: (to Maudie) what does a princess like you see in a loser like me?
Moth: (to another girl) You're beautiful you. Look at you. You're fantastic you. 

• What do you say about yourself?

Moth: I'm losing everything, my flair, my waistline, what's next to go - you?
Moth: Im going to give you all I've got left. My final, last and only possession. My dancing talent.

Moth: I can Maud. I sure as hell can Maud. (dance) 

• Given circumstances

Moth has a girlfriend called Maudie, but he is always hitting on other girls, even though none of them are interested. He only stays with Maudie because she gives him money, which makes me think that he is an unemployed gold-digger. He is probably in his early to late forties, as he hurts his back when he dances with Maudie and is afraid of commitment, as he only asks his girlfriend for her hand in marriage when she threatens to leave him.

Mr Iger

• What do other people say about you?

Mrs Iger: No, not a try. Get them here. It's pathetic.

Mrs Iger: But I must say, I must say, it is another typical cock up by Mr Feeble man. I mean what's to getting to a bar for a drink? Are you a man or a mouse? Squeak, squeak, there's my answer. You should do something about this. I mean it's typical, too typical of the little. I mean, if you were big, big as I wanted, well, well...

Mrs Iger: Ay dear, what have I done to you, my dinky.

Mrs Iger: Come here my detailed little man. Your weediness is welcome here. Come away now. Come on. My compact chap. 

• What do you say about other people?

Mr Iger: (to a random man) Shut your face fatso.

Mr Iger: (about Mrs Iger) Oh no, she's going to kill me.

• What do you say about yourself?

Mr Iger: Dear, I'm having difficulty getting to the bar again.

Mr Iger: Does this mean I can sleep in the bed tonight?

• Given circumstances

Mr Iger is a weedy, pathetic man who tries hard to impress his wife, but he is in no way the man of her dreams. He has probably put up with being mentally abused by his wife for a long time, and he finally cracks and tries to prove how manly he really is, but she comes along and emasculates him again. He doesn't sleep on the same bed as his wife, so he is most probably lonely and very unhappy with his life.

Evaluation
I thought that the read-through of the script was very funny. I like the banter between the landlord and the landlady, and thought that it was better when Tapz started to put on a Jamaican accent. I like my character of Moth, and I think that I could have a lot of fun with him, but I think that I'll have a harder time portraying Mr Iger as he is more withdrawn and quiet. It says in the notes that the pub and everything in it is going to be mimed, but I would prefer to use props, such as glasses and other actors. 
I like that the Landlord and Landlady come on between all of the couples, and their constant arguing, and I like the bombshell at the end, which brings a more serious town to the script. The one part of the script that I didn't like was the conversation between Lesley and Roy. I got really annoyed and angry that he abused her, especially when she mentioned that she had a child.
