The More You Know: And here is my transcriptions / script. You're welcome:
ROB - I say: Michael Caine used to talk like this in the 1960s, right? But that has changed. And I said: Over the years, Michael's voice has come down several octaves. Let me finish.

STEVE - Because you’re panicking.

ROB - Because you look like you're about to bloody talk! Let me finish. Right, so, Michael Caine's voice now, in the Batman movies, and in Harry… Brown, I can't go fast, because Michael Caine talks very... very... slowly.
