Steve Bayliss is from Widnes and he's interested to find out just what Jarvis is going on about in Common People in the "Dog lying in a corner" bit. Is it too obscene to publish, he asks?
The Doc says, whilst recording the acoustic guitar track, Jarvis' headphone level was too loud, and he was asking for it to be turned down. The "Dog lying in the corner" bit is Jarvis wittering on as only he can, while the levels were corrected. The group thought it sounded good anyway and kept it.

Please let this turn out to be the right person it would just be too perfect a punchline.

Hour-long BBC 10th anniversary doc The Story Of Common People, from 2006 is now on the iPlayer. Hasn't been shown much in the last decade. It's really good.
