... of the most miserable kind.

I suggest making up the script of an episode of Steptoes and Son 2012, bicycle style. So I will start.
Act one, scene one:

Mid summer, Its 5.30am and the roof is leaking...

Steptoe: Fink i'll have to sell that bike of yours to pay for the roof to be fixed...

    Hang on, Harold and Steptoe are one and the same person. Is he talking to himself? A soliloquy, perchance?
    Summer: Kuota Kebel
    Winter: GT Series3

    All the world’s a stage,
    and all the men and women merely players,
    or may we dare to cram within this wooden O
    the very casques that did affright the air at Agincourt?
    you dirty ol' man.

    Steptoe: Neeeeee. Your no son of mine, leaving me to die slowly of starvation sitting here under a drip from the ceiling 'cos you won't sell that bike that you never ride and is'nt worth much. Better watch you don't wake up and find me dead !

    Steptoe: Chopper?

    Harold: I was going to say Chinarello -

    Steptoe: Yes, but you meant chopper.

    Harold: You are a dirty little old man. Now if you'll excuse me, father, I have a date with a lady of breeding and culture and savoir faire.

    Steptoe: Don't forget your johnnies....they're in the draw next to my teeth.

    Steptoe cont... : I see, so your going to sell the bike so that you can purchase performance enhancing drugs for your dodgy date with a poor unsuspecting disabled athlete ?... I know those little blue pills with a 'V' stamped in them that I keep finding in the empty baked bean tin... The place will be locked when you get back, that'll teach ya.
