Lesson 2: The Full Monty
TAPESCRIPTS
Listening Section 1
Now that’s a catchphrase from a film – the film title this time. I mean, people often don’t
take film titles and make them catchphrases. M-o-n-t-y, a name (capital ‘M’). Now it had
existed before as a phrase – but this was a new film, in 1997, a British film about a group
of unemployed men, who take their clothes off to earn some money. In fact the origin of
the word is back in the 1980s, a rather obscure word actually – nobody quite knows where
it comes from.
Listening Section 2
It might have come from a firm of clothing manufacturers, famous men’s tailors called
‘Montague Burton’, a complete suit of clothing in the 1970s, -80s, and say, we were
“wearing the full Monty” – and of course, talking about the lack of clothing since the film
came along. So in another words, the modern meaning of the phrase is “everything that
we need” or “…is appropriate”. If you’re packing a suitcase you might say “I’ve got the
full Monty” now; you’re packing a car, “I’ve got the full Monty”; and when this
programme is over, you’ll have had “the full Monty” ….at least about this expression, too!
