C word?

In the changing room just before they play football, I thought that I heard Mr. Sugden use the C word. It's a muffled line. I rewound it a few times, and couldn't think of what else he might be saying besides this.

The dialogue seems to go like this whilst Billy is putting on the PE shorts that are far too big for him.

Mr. Sugden: Don't forget to get your vest and underpants on.
Billy: I'm not wearing any, sir.
Mr. Sugden: Cheeky [C word]!

Does this sound like that to you? If so, this was probably the first film to use the dreaded word.

If not, what is he saying?

He says 'Typical'

That would make sense. Funny how I managed to mishear this so badly.

Yeah, he deffo says typical. Because at this point in his high school life he is well known to the PE teacher for forgetting his PE kit.

One term my PE class was scheduled at 9:10, straight after registration. I skipped every PE class that term. My mum was a bit confused by the amount of lates on my report card because we were never late getting up in the morning. I told her the truth: I skipped PE. I'll avoid ritual humiliation as much as possible.
