Borat's Guide to Cambridge

Let's be guided by Borat in his visit to Cambridge, one of the world's best universities. Along the way, he manages to offend a prudish American student, almost drives his cricket-instructor crazy, kisses a venerable professor on both cheeks and makes a couple offensive remarks to women. No one is safe around Borat!!!

Approximate Transcript:
Borat
- I have come here to greatest university in world, Cambridge. Where most famous men in world study; Isaac Newton, William Shakespeare, Kenny Dalglish, Thompson Twins. To find why this is greatest university in world. Jagshemash.

Borat - Your name is?
Ian - Ian
Borat - I have seen women here in Cambridge today. Why are they here?
Ian - Well, because they are also clever.
Borat - Yes. We say in Kazakhstan that, "Woman who goes with book is like a horse with..." What do you put on horse?
Ian - Saddle?
Borat - Yes.
Ian - I mean the point is that half the world are women, therefore half the intelligence, half the ability is with the women. The only difference is that they are not creative. Women have not got creative minds.
Borat - Is true. Is true.
Ian - They cannot think.
Borat - They cannot think properly.
Ian - No, they can't think.
Borat - We say in Kazakhstan, "You find me woman with brain, I find you a horse with..." How you say?
Ian - With wings.
Borat - Is true. Is true.

Borat - And what is the "Cambridge Ball"? Everyone say the "The Cambridge Ball".
Student - The Cambridge Ball's are just big things where you dress up in a white
or black tie.
Borat - Like a party?
Student - Yeah, like a party.
Borat - And they bring in woman especially for this?
Student - No, there is no special women brought in. You bring your own woman I'm afraid.
Borat - So they do not bring in prostitutes?
Student - Absolutely not... Prostitutes... I don't think.
Borat - So how do you party? Without...
Student - Well in England we don't really use prostitutes at parties. It's one of those odd things.
Borat - Why not?
Student - I don't know. It's just not tradition.

Borat - Will there be wrestling with no clothes and a horse polo and...
Student - Well there certainly will not be wrestling with no clothes. There might be polo somewhere.
Borat - Yes...
Student - But I think that some of the kinds of parties that maybe you are thinking of you're not going to find here at all.
Borat - And will there be a woman where you go and you do it...like sex with them?
Student - I am sorry you are going to have to cut that off. That's an inappropriate question. There will be no such thing! This is a serious university and there is not going to be any prostitution that you have just mentioned. That would be inappropriate.
Borat - OK OK. So about the... Forget the party
Student - I'm sorry that's over.

Borat - ...and you won't forget me?
Students
- No way. No no.

Student 1 - I am going to tell everyone!
Borat - Borat, like Barry.
Student 1 - What is your name anyway?
Borat - Borat, like Barry.
Borat - Borat, like Barry. But people call me Steve.
Student 1 - Ok Steve.
Borat - People call me Steve.
Student 1 - Can I call you Brian?
Borat - Why?
Student 1 - I don't know
Borat - Why?
Student 1 - No reason really.
Borat - In Kazakhstan there was Englishman he called me Steve.
Student 1 - Yeah?
Borat - Today I look for Steve, there is one Steve here, one Steve there. All Steves.


Borat - So today we met the most intelligent people in Britain. In one day at Cambridge I had more fun than six years at Almaaty University. And the best thing of all Government pay for this! We have lots of lessons to learn.
