Angry Young Glutton

You're like a sexual maniac. Only with you it's food.
/ˈjɔː ˈlaɪk |ə ˈsekʃuəl `meɪniӕk. əʊni wɪð ˌ juː ɪts ˋfuːd./ [1]

You'll end up in the News of the World, boyo. You wait.
/ˈjuːl ˈend ˈʌp | ɪn ðə ˈnjuːz ə ðə ˋwɜːld, bɔɪəʊ. ˈjuː ˋweɪt./ [2]

James Porter, aged twenty-five, was bound over last week
/ˈʤeɪmz ˎpɔːtə, ˈeɪʤ twenti ˎfaɪv, wz ˈbaʊnd ˈəʊvə | ˈlɑːst ˏwiːk| /[3]

after pleading guilty to interfering with a small cabbage
/ɑːftəˋ-pliːdɪŋ ˋˏgɪlti | tu ˈɪntəˈfɪərɪŋ | wɪð ə ˈsmɔːl ˈkӕbɪʤ | /[4]

and two tins of beans on his way home from the Builders' Arms.
/ən ˈtuː ˈtɪnz əv ˋˏbiːnz |ɒn ɪz ˈweɪ ˈhəʊm | frm ðə ˈbɪldəz ˎɑːmz./ [5]

The accused said he hadn't been feeling well for
/ði əˈkjuːzd ˈsed | i ˈhӕdn biːn ˋfiːlɪŋ ˏwel | fə / [6]

some time and had been having blackouts. He asked
/ˈsʌm ˋtaɪm | ən əd biːn ˈhӕvɪŋ `blӕkaʊts. hi ɑːst |/[7]

for his good record as an air-raid warden second class
/fər ɪz ˈgʊd ˎrekɔːd | əz ən ˈeə ˈreɪd ˈwɔːdn | sekn `-klɑːs /|[8]

to be taken into account.
/tə bi ˈteɪkn ɪntu əˎkaʊnt./ [9]

In line 1 “only” with its /l/ elided is completely normal usage. The News of the World used to have more scandal than any other newspaper. The term of address “boyo” is a regionalism associated with Wales from which this character in John Osborne's Look Back in Anger purported to come. The language parodies that of the reporting of court cases.

The stressed pronoun of “You wait” in line 2 isn't an ordinary accentuation: it's an animation stress combining with the grammatically also rather special expression of the pronoun in a command to produce its admonitory finger-waggingly mocking effect. Also in line 2 the use of the weakform of “of ” with its /v/ elided is completely normal in fluent speech when the next word is “the”.

In line 3 any contrast between “aged 25” and “age 25” would be very elusive. In line 6 “hadn’t” with its /t/ elided is commonplace. Contractions ending “-nt” all readily drop the /t/ unless a pause follows. In reference to line 7 the past form of “asked” is much more often /ɑːst/ than /ɑːskt/.
