Well, I was reading official transcript, but I hear rather "You have a
RIVAL here tonight" - RIVAL rather than LIVE ONE
Anyone with a Pygmalion (1938) in his videotheque, help.

"...a rival here tonight" is definitely what I can hear too.

Is that the transcript you are referring to?http://www.script-o-rama.com/movie_scripts/p/pygmalion-script-transcr...
It's not really "official" in any sense of the word, I think.

There are some extracts of the book--the whole text is not available,
unfortunately-- here:http://www.google.fr/books?id=D2jJuoQ-UhoC&pg=PA70&ots=7KwrDAJtpy&dq=...
orhttp://tinyurl.com/yrdkpg
which confirm your --and my-- hearing of the text

Hm, I was looking another transcript, but guess it was not "official"
after all. Nevertheless, as English is not my native tongue, I just
wanted to be sure while translating it. After seeing the film so many
times, I know the text by the heart.

Thanks and regards,

Marko.
