I've just had another listen to the youtube version (the archive version has been removed). It's not helped by the quality; it sounds like it's been noise-reduced with a method that's left lots of 'musical noise'. It's possible to do better.
Anyway, sound notwithstanding, I agree almost totally with joolz' last reading, except for the following:
Guest, in v2 I don't hear as she at all, I still hear that as written, just She.
In ch2, Guest has got the broke 'er nut right, though I think the line is: Knocked her bonnet off 'er, broke 'er nut
In ch3, I think it's just You're in the dark..
In the v4 a minor correction, it's: Called on the cook 'e had a nice quiet talk
