Narrator:
Every major international city

has that most popular
means of transport, the taxi.

That unique brand of conveyance

which combines
efficiency with individuality.

Perhaps most popular
for the personal service it provides.

Enthusiastic, hard-working,
with never a moment's rest,

probably the taxi driver's
most lovable attribute

is the warm welcome
he is always eager to extend

to foreign visitors.

The moment you hail a taxi,

you can be sure
of being greeted by a friendly smile,

a concern for your well-being,

and someone at the wheel
always ready to lend a helping hand.

There are, at present,
literally millions of taxis

operating throughout the world
on a 24-hour basis,

ensuring that at any time,
day or night, within seconds,

you can be speeding happily away
to the destination of your choice.

Renowned for their
total lack of prejudice,

a taxi will stop for anybody,

irrespective of colour,
class, or creed.

Adored by the public

for their whimsical charm
and delightful disposition,

perhaps, more than any other form
of public transport,

the taxi driver holds a unique place
in the hearts of the people.

Not least his fellow road users,
who appreciate to the full

that quiet, courteous Patience,

that affable, friendly manner,

that consideration
for his fellow motorists,

with whom he is
always ready to exchange

a friendly wave
and some merry little quip.

But, possibly more than
anything else to his credit,

the taxi driver bears the distinction
of being a driver of knowledge,

experience and efficiency,

reassuring all who drive with him

that the taxi is not only
the safest vehicle on the road,

but holds the proud record

for being involved in the
least number of accidents.

Without a doubt, we, the public,

owe much to these
gallant knights of the road,

of whom it can truly be said,

"everything we feel for them,

"the y feel for us."

That'll be seventy-five, guv.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Thank you very much.

Well, you try smiling

when you've been lumbered with
a miserable, tight-fisted git like him,

after you've fought through
all the bleedin' traffic

and had him moanin' on at you,
like it was all your fault.

Sorry about that.

Been a bit of a bad day,
know what I mean?

By the way, my name's Joe.

Well, with a name like that, I had to
go in the cabbing business, didn't I?

Been at it a year or so now.
Got me own cab.

Well, almost.
Soon as I've finished paying for it.

Yeah, it's not such a bad job, really.

Hard work, but then
so's anything these days.

Not that I mind.

Got me health and strength,
know what I mean?

Mind you, I'll be a lot happier
when I get me own place.

Trouble is, you see,
I live at home.

You need a bit of peace and quiet
after doing this job.

And iivin' at home?
No joke, I can tell ya.

Oh, yeah, makes
a great start to the day.

Joe: Oh, come on, mum,
I'm late as it is.

Well, it's your own fault.

Comin' in here last night,
pissed as a newt,

crashin' about all over the place
and wakin' me up.

Lay off, ma, will ya?
Do us a favour.

You're gettin' more like your father
every day, you are.

And you're gonna end up like him,
Mark my words.

And where were you last night?

Out screwin' some poor,
innocent little girl, I suppose.

- Just like your father.
- Don't make me laugh.

You hardly knew him.
You only met him once.

Don't talk like that
in front of the baby.

You woke her up and all, didn't he,
my dear little pet?

Have more consideration.

Anyway, it was twice I met him.
Twice.

Gimme 'em!

Mummy'll give you somethin'
nicer than that to play with,

there's a good little girl.

Well, are you gonna sit
staring at that all day,

or are you gonna eat it?

I don't feel like eating. Look,
just give me a cup of tea, will ya?

Mrs north: Oh, I don't know
why I bother, I really don't.

I mean, food is wasted
just as though it cost nothing.

Joe: All right, all right!
Something's burning.

Porridge, by the smell.

Oh, it's all right,
just at the bottom.

The top's all right.

- Don't like porridge!
- Yes, you do. It's lovely.

It's horrid! Horrid! Horrid!

- Shut up!
- Mrs north: Oh!

Mrs north: Now look what you've done.

You know it makes her cry.

All right, I give up. That's it.
Bloody hell. I'm late as it is.

- Look, where's me fares book?
- Oh, in the cupboard.

Oh, my god!

That little tyke's been thievin' again,
ain't he?

Where is he? Peter!
Come in here! Peter!

And he's like his father and all.

Wind up in the same cell with him,
I shouldn't wonder,

the way he's carryin' on.

Peter!

How am I supposed to get to sleep
with all this racket?

Yeah? So?
Where's the fire, then?

Joe: Over here. Come here.

Look, what have you got to say about
all this lot, then?

Good gear, innit?
I mean, it's not rubbish, is it?

Here, you said
you got a properjob.

Vveh, I have.

I mean, I'm doin' it
proper now, aren't I?

Been working very hard
at it and all.

I've got a sharp little
organisation together.

You're gonna get us all into trouble
one of these days.

I mean, anyone could just walk in.

Yeah, and all that lot iyin' there.

Not to mention
twenty cartons of hairspray

I found hidden under me bed.

Fell off the back of a lorry,
didn't they, mum?

You're gonna end up in the Nick
with ten years ahead of you.

Peter's goin' in the Nick!
Peter's goin' in the Nick!

Why can't you get
an honest job for once?

What? Like driving a cab?
Leave off.

Anyway, that's no more than
bleedin' highway robbery,

so what are you doin'
tellin' me to go straight?

Joe: Oh, choice. I like that.

Just don't ask me
to bail you out, that's all.

It's your funeral.

What'd I tell ya, eh?
It's always like that.

Makes it a pleasure
goin' to work of a mornin'.

I tell you what'd cheer me up,
be to pick up a nice bit of crumpet.

Very handy for introductions,
this motor.

Female singer:
J“ a man about town like you

j“ you have better things to do

j“ but spendin' the time

j“ I'll see that it's worth your while

j“ oh, baby

j“ I know you've been runnin' free

j“ I think you'd have fun with me

j“ forget the rest

j“ I'd like to test your drivin' style

j“ won't you be my

j“ cruisin' Casanova?

J“ click your fingers
and I'll be over there

j“ smoothin' your hair

j“ soothin' your cares away

j“ there's no refusin' Casanova

j“ stop the clock and workin' overtime

j“ cruisin' Casanova, be mine

j“ my man's a taxi driver... j“

- Where to, darling?
- Lambeth bridge, please.

Right you are, then.

Nice morning, innit?
You off to work, then?

Yeah, I thought so.
I can usually tell.

Well, being in this job, you have to
be a bit of a psychologist.

What do you do for a living, eh?
No, don't tell me.

Let me guess.

I'd say you're a secretary, right?

Personal secretary
to some oil magnate, eh?

Really high-powered.

Don't let appearances fool ya.

Be a right little raver, this one,
when it gets going.

Got a lovely little body on her, too.

No mistake.

Looks a bit miserable, though.

I know what she needs, right?

That's another thing I can tell.

Whether a bird's had a good
seein' to, or not, the night before.

I reckon that one's had a right
thin time of it lately, don't you?

Born in London, were ya?
No, don't tell me. Let me guess.

I'd say,
judging from your accent,

that you're from
somewhere up north, right?

Yes, I can usually tell.

Somewhere like, er...
Liverpool, maybe?

Yeah. Liverpool, I'd say.

She's weakening.
What'd I tell you, eh?

Oh, yes, definitely softening up.
Stands out a mile.

Which side of the bridge, love?

- The middle.
- The middle?

Right, then. Middle it is.

That'll be, um... here, hang on!

Hey! Hang on a minute, darling.
What about my fare?

Go away and leave me alone!
Please. Just leave me alone.

But I never laid a finger on ya.

Look_.
What's the matter with you?

Jesus Christ,
I only want me bleedin' fare.

Look, if you haven't got it,
there's no need to panic.

I mean it.
Don't come any closer.

All right. All right.
I'm going. I'm going.

You don't care, do you?

- Nobody cares.
- Eh?

No-one will even notice I'm dead.

All right, then,
if that's the way it is,

I'll jump now.

- Oh, my god!
- Don't try and stop me.

It's too late.
My mind's made up.

No. Wait. Don't do it!

The pain, the suffering, will only end
when the icy waters close over me,

carrying me away into oblivion.

- Funny bird.
- The dreamless sleep of eternity.

Darlin', why don't you
tell me about it?

I mean, I don't
pretend to understand.

I've only just met you, haventl?

But you know
what they say, right?

"A trouble shared
is a trouble halved."

And all can say is, well,
it seems to me a terrible waste,

beautiful girl like you
tryin' to do away with herself.

What do you say, eh?

I mean, nothing's
ever that bad, really.

Not when you come down to it.

It's too late for talking now.

Oh, please, darlin'. Try, eh?

I'm all alone in the world.

No-one loves me. No-one cares.

You don't know what it's like
to be left alone, unloved, unwanted.

Hold on. I don't believe it.

Beautiful girl like you
and no-one wants to know?

Listen, [could love ya.

I mean, the first time I saw ya,
I said to meself,

"now there's a girl
I could really love."

There was a man.

Once.

I thought he loved me.

- Oh, Ronald, Ronald!
- Watch yourself, you'll fall!

He's never coming back.

I'll never see him again.
Never! I want to die.

I can't face life without him.
Oh, Ronald, Ronald!

I can't even kill myself properly.

I'm a failure at everything.

No, you just need
cheerin' up, that's all.

Look, you've had
a nasty shock, right?

Why don't I take you home, eh?
Where do you live?

Do you really think
I'll ever be able to forget Ronald?

'Course you will.
With a bit of help.

I need love, you see.

That's what I need,
lots of loving.

Well, er...

I did just save her life, didn't I?

I mean, the way I look at it,
it's an offer I can't refuse.

And strong arms.
Strong arms to hold me.

Hold ya? It's like trying to
undress a bloody octopus.

I don't want you
to think I'm promiscuous,

just because you caught me
at a weak moment.

Oh, I don't. I don't.

Look, just lift up a bit, will ya?

It's just that without Ronald,
I feel so helpless.

Oh, I don't know,
you seem to be doing all right.

I wish he was here right now,
so he could see.

Oh, I don't!

Man: Linda!

- It's Ronald.
- Ronald?

- Oh!
- You got it all wrong, mate.

It's not like that at all.

I've just brought her back in my cab,
you see.

And you're just collecting the fare,
that right?

Yeah. No!

You mustn't...
Mustn't get it wrong. Um...

I didn't dare leave her.

She was gonna do herself in.

Throw herself off lambeth bridge.

Well, that makes a change.

Let's see, what's the score now?
Westminster twice,

blackfriars, London bridge,
tower bridge,

and that's only
in the last few months.

Well, how was I supposed to know?
I mean, she was in a terrible state.

- Said you'd left her.
- And you did.

You just walked out
without saying goodbye,

and you slammed the door.

- Cover yourself up, will you?
- That's typical, that is.

Most of the time
you want me to uncover myself.

That's different.
That's when I'm with you.

Well, you're with me now,
so what's different?

Admit it, you only
want me for my body.

Oh, Linda, don't be so ridiculous.

- I'm not being...
- Er... excuse me...

You think you can
treat me how you like,

as if I've got no feelings.

- Now, you know that's not true.
- Oh, calling me a liar, are you, now?

Not content with only wanting me
for my body, I'm a liar as well!

- Ronald: I didn't say that!
- Um... excuse me...

I knew it. I just knew it.
You don't love me any more.

Of course I do!

You wouldn't say
such things if you did.

Look, I don't want
to interrupt anything...

Look, if I didn't love you, how the hell
could I have put up with you for so long?

- I said, I don't want to interrupt...
- Just mind your own business.

Keep your nose out of this, mate.

I've got to go to work
sometimes, you know,

without you thinking I'm leaving you
and threatening to commit suicide.

You drive me to it. You're so...

You're so cruel to me!
Thank you.

- Thank you.
- Oh, don't be so stupid.

You're sick, that's your trouble.

Linda: Oh, yes,
that's always your attitude.

You never think.
And you still haven't remembered.

Ronald: Remembered what,
for heaven's sake?

Linda: It's my birthday!

Ronald: So what's important
about a birthday?

- Linda: It's very important...
- Ronald: You have one every year.

- Come on, you can't have more than one.
- Linda: It's very important to have a birthday!

It's gonna be one of those days.
I just know it.

Peter: I'd like to take her out
and push her under a bus.

Mrs north: Don't you talk about
your little sister like that.

I won't have it!

Sister? She's not even human.

Look at that lot! A whole
bleedin' ton of soap powder ruined.

Do you know how much money
she's lost me?

And when I'd done a deal on it.
Knocked myself out to set it up.

Mrs north: Well, no-one asked you
to bring it in here, did they?

Clutterin' up my kitchen.

Well, I want it out.
Just get rid of it.

- Do you hear me?
- Oh, yeah?

Now, what am I supposed to say?

Like, er...
"Listen, mate, about that soap powder,

"I did have it, see, but it
sort of vanished. Sorry about that."

Or how about, "my little sister
decided to decorate the house with it."

Oh, they're gonna love that,
after they've picked themselves up

off the bloody floor laughing,
of course.

Joe, Joe, just tell him, will you?
Just tell him to get rid of it.

No. No. I... I've had
as much as I can take.

I wash my hands of
the whole bleedin' lot of you.

That's it, as far as I'm concerned.

Mrs north: Why don't you get rid of
the stuff you've already got

before you bring more in?

It's getting so that I can't even
move around me own house.

What's all that gear
doin' in my bedroom?

Peter: I'll wring her bloody little neck,
so help me, I will.

Joe: Peter!

Peter: Little monster ought to
have been put down at birth.

What?

- Peter!
- Peter: What?

I want to know what all that...

Oh, never mind. Forget it.

And where do you think
you're going, sunny Jim?

I've got a
nice little job for you first.

- Dump it.
- Peter: Oh, ma, where?

Mrs north:
That is your problem, not mine.

And mind you
bring that bucket back.

Where do you think
you're going with that?

I told you, I'm leaving.

Oh, I see. Just walkin' out
and ieavin' me to cope?

A fine son you turned out to be.

Just like your father,
whoever he was. Here!

What am I supposed to tell Carol
when she comes?

Well, you can tell her to...

- Hello, love.
- Hello, love.

Carol, me steady. Bit of a drag.
Got wedding bells in her ears.

- What you doin' with that, then?
- He's clearin' off.

Walkin' out on his responsibilities,
that's what he's doin'.

Oh, no! No, I'm sure Joe wouldn't do
a thing like that without telling me.

- Would you, Joe?
- Yes, I would.

I've had enough. I'm clearin' out.
I've had enough.

Ooh!

Well, I expect
I'll see you later, then?

Joeljoe!

Joe north!
You come here. Come here.

Do I comprehend
the situation correctly?

- Are you ieavin' home?
- Dead right.

Without a word to me
or even a by-your-leave?

It's got nothing to do with you.

What do you mean
it's got nothing to do with me?

I happen to be your fiancée,

and fiancées have a right
to know these things.

- So where are you going?
- I don't know.

- What do you mean, you don't know?
- Well, I just told you, I don't know.

You can't just leave home
and not know where you're going.

As soon as I find somewhere,
I'll get in touch, all right?

Well, when's that, then?

How should I know? Tonight, tomorrow,
as soon as I'm settled in.

Well, does that mean you're not
gonna take me out tonight?

How can I?
I don't know where I'll be.

- Gone with the wind.
- W hat?

That's what you were supposed
to take me to, gone with the wind.

Oh, come on, now.
You must have seen it ten times.

Eleven.

What with that and lady and the tramp
every year at Christmas,

it's enough to
drive anyone up the wall.

Well, you don't have to come.
I mean, nobody's forcing you to.

I mean, you don't have to care
if I'm on my own,

probably being molested
in the back row.

Oh, come on.
Who's gonna molest you?

Lots of people, if! Let 'em.

Anyway, you always do.

Yeah, well, I've gotta find
something to do, haven't I?

Gone with the wind,
it's a long film.

Well, if you won't
take me to the pictures,

why can't I come with you
and help you find somewhere to stay?

Carol, I'll be all right.

Supposing you're movin' in
with another woman?

Oh, leave off, Carol.

Well, how am I supposed to know?

Look, I'll ring you, all right?

You see, if you would have told me
you were ieavin' home,

I could have done the same,

and then we could have
moved in together, and...

And got married
before I originally planned.

Yeah. Well, er... I'll ring you.

See, if you wouldn't mind
hangin' about for a bit,

I could belt home
and start packing straight away.

Ah, no! Look, um...

Twenty minutes, fifteen at the outside
if you took me by cab.

Carol, I haven't got time
for all this.

What is the matter?

Do you not want
to live with me anymore?

'Course I do.
It's nothing to do with that.

Well, you wouldn't think so,
the way you go on about it.

You know, you'll have to get
used to it once we're married.

Look, what's up with you?

Don't you trust me or something?

Quite frankly, no.

Charmin'.

Well, it's just that I don't like
to think of you being unfaithful.

Especially as I spent all my savings
last week buying my engagement ring.

- Have I ever been unfaithful to you?
- No.

Have you ever caught me
with another woman?

Have you ever caught me,
when I've been out with you,

even looking at another woman?

- No.
- Well, there you are, then.

You've got nothing to worry about,
have you?

That is besides the point.

Remember, a penny saved
is a penny not spent.

What are you goin' on about?

Do not put
all your balls in one basket.

That is what I'm trying to say.

You see, if I caught you reclining
in the embrace of another woman,

do you know what I would do?

I would chop it off!

Look, you can trust me.

As soon as I find somewhere,
I'll ring you, all right?

But, I thought I was
coming with you.

- What?
- Well, that's what we agreed.

- Yeah. Well, look, um... you go home...
- Yeah.

- And pack your things.
- Yeah.

- And then as soon as I find somewhere...
- Yeah.

- I'll see ya later.
- Right.

I hadn't finished yet!

Tom? Tom? You about?

Tom: With you in a minute.

- Joe, how are things?
- Oh, not so bad.

Mind if I carry on?

- Busy, I see.
- Oh, not bad.

Joe:
Still got your picture gallery, then?

You dirty old bastard.

Make good dart boards.
You should see how my aim's improved.

Here, pass that grease gun, will ya?

How's the cab business, then?

Oh, mustn't grumble.

Thing is, I, er...

I did want to
ask you a favour, mate.

- Oh, yeah?
- Yeah. Um...

You know that flat
you've got upstairs?

Yeah? What about it?

- Well, it's got two bedrooms, right?
- Just about. Yeah.

Yeah.
Well, I've got this problem, see.

Like, I've gotta find
somewhere to live, and, er...

Well, seeing as how we're mates...

I mean, I'd help
towards the rent and that.

Listen, Joe, any time,
you know that.

Unfortunately, it's not that simple.

I mean, if you'd asked me
a couple of weeks ago, no problem.

But, the trouble, is I've got a lady
living with me at the moment.

Don't tell me you need two beds.
You must be slipping.

No, no, no, it's not that.

Look, Joe, I'll be straight with you.
You know women.

You never know how they'll react.
I mean, well, Nikki's a nice lady, but...

- Well, she does work odd hours.
- Yeah?

Has its advantages, I suppose.

I wouldn't ask
if I wasn't really desperate.

Just till I get
something else fixed up.

All right, all right.
Just for a couple of weeks,

- till you find somewhere.
- Yeah.

Woman: Is this a private party
or can anyone join in?

Hello! Talk of the devil!

I'll say this for Tom,
he certainly knows how to pick 'em.

Now, she's obviously a bit of class.

Probably an air hostess,
or something like that.

Tom: This is Nikki.
She's a stripper.

Well, you can't always
be right, can ya?

Joe's comin' to stay
with us for a while.

- Oh, nice. When?
- Joe: How about now?

Nikki:
You weren't kiddin', were you?

Well, I don't believe in hanging about
once me mind's made up.

You, er...
Plannin' on stayin' long, then?

Well, just till
I get meself sorted out,

find a nice little place to live.

Oh, if you hear of
anywhere that's going,

not too expensive.

Oh, yeah. Sure.

She fancies me. I can tell.

I could pull this one.
Dead easy. No problem.

I expect you're like me.

Work odd hours.

Yeah, I do a bit.

I suppose that means we won't...

See a lot of each other, then.

Do you fancy a quick one before I go?

Oh! Er... no, thanks.

Better get out
and earn some money.

- Like me to drop you off?
- Oh yeah, great.

Save me gettin' a cab.

Yeah, I could definitely
make it with her,

but I think I'd better
put in a bit of hard graft,

earn meself some money.

Yes, that's what I'm gonna
concentrate on for a bit, money.

Nikki!

- Nikki! Nikki!
- What?

No, stand back, for god's sake.
Stand back.

Why? What's happened?

It's a... in there.

No, don't go any closer.

Oh, don't be silly.

- But it's a...
- It's monty.

Oh, don't touch it.

They bite, you know.
They're... they're poisonous!

Monty is a python,

and they don't bite.

Anyway, he wouldn't hurt anyone,
would you, monty?

Are you trying to tell me...

- Is that thing yours?
- Well, of course it is.

And don't shout.

You'll upset him.
He's very highly strung.

Well, what's he doing in my bath?

Where else could I put him?

Anyway, he likes it in the bath.

Keep that horrible thing away from me.

I'm telling you,
you'll have to get rid of it.

It's not staying here.
You'll have to get rid of it.

Get rid of it?

I can't.

And, even if I wanted to,
which I don't,

- he's part of my act.
- Change your act.

Change my act?

Monty is a huge success
and you don't replace that in a hurry.

- Do you, darlin'?
- Oh, will you stop doing that?

Gives me the horrors, those beady
little eyes starin' at me all the time.

I don't know why
you're making such a fuss.

Give me his basket.

I don't know how you'd feel
if you found a snake in your bath.

I mean, I almost
had a heart attack.

Are you sure that thing's
gonna be safe in there?

Yes, of course he is.

Monty is very well behaved.

In you go. There we are.

- Hello, Gerry, bill.
- Wotcha, Joe.

- Pick any winners, did ya?
- Nah.

Oh, it's a mug's game, that.

You wanna give it up, mate,
save your money.

Hello, sexy.

It's my money. Might as well
spend it on that as anything else.

Better than throwing it away
on ruddy women all the time, like you.

What are you talking about?
I make them pay.

That's the secret, mate.

Sex maniac, that's what you are.

Nah, you're just too old, mate,
that's your trouble.

Can't get it up any more.

From what I've heard,
you can't get yours down, mate.

All part of me worldly charm, innit?

Oh, that's what they call it, is it?

What's the matter with you, eh?

You forgotten what it's like?

He thinks he invented sex.

- Hello, Joe.
- Hello, dora.

- Haven't seen you for a while.
- Been busy, ain't I?

Dora: Two dog rolls, two teas.

The way he carries on, I'm surprised
it ain't dropped off by now.

Go on. You're just jealous.

Ah, like hell. You get to my age,
you've done it all, ain't ya?

I get to your age,
I'll need to have done.

Ah, get lost, mate.

You reckon that's all there is
to this job, don't you? Pulling birds.

Joe: And what do you reckon
it's all about, then?

You're all the bloody same.

Out on the road for a couple of years,
think you know it all.

- You'll find out.
- Yeah?

Dora:
How's that dreadful brother of yours?

What? Peter?

Dreadful.

- What do you fancy, then?
- What do you think?

- Give us a dog roll, will you?
- One dog roll.

He's gonna get done
one of these days,

the way he carries on.

More than likely.
Still, I shan't be there to see it.

Moved out.
Couldn't stand it any longer.

Got me own place now.

- Moved in with Carol, have you?
- Not bloody likely.

Yeah? When are you gonna
invite me round, then?

Any time you like, darlin'.

Well, I'm free tonight.

Funny you should say that.
So am I.

- Pick you up about seven, right?
- Right.

Joe, if I let you, you know...

You wouldn't think me cheap,
would you?

Cheap?

No, 'course not.

Drinking double gins all evening.

'Course not.
It's being emotionally honest.

What could be wrong with that?

Besides, with a fabulous figure
like you got,

it'd be criminal to hide it away,
now, wouldn't it?

I'll tell you something,

you've got the most
beautiful breasts I've ever seen.

Have I?

- I have dreams about them.
- You don't. Really?

I'll tell you something else, too,

they're even better
with nothing on.

Oh, Joe...

Oh, oh...

Oh, Joe...

Oh, darling, you're fantastic.

But I haven't even
got me trousers off yet.

Joe...

What a scene that was last night!

Makes you wonder whether
it's all worthwhile, don't it?

Just got to deliver this parcel.
Should be fairly straightforward.

Well, I don't think I could take
any more excitement, not for a while.

Mrs devere barker?

Parcel for you.

Oh. Mmm.

Bring it in, would you?

Oh, if you'd just like to
pop it down over there.

I daren't touch it, you see.
It's my nails.

- It's your what, love?
- Nails.

Tropical green, number three.

Very exotic.

The second they're dry,
I'll be able to pay you,

only I just daren't touch anything
while they're like this.

No, it's all right, you just
stand there and dry off.

- I'm in no hurry.
- Oh.

You wouldn't like a drink
while you're waiting, would you?

No, thanks, I'm driving.
But thanks, all the same.

Oh, not even a cold beer,
something like that?

Well, iwouldn't
mind a beer, actually.

Oh, do help yourself.

Actually, darling,
you couldn't do me

a large campari and soda,
could you, while you're there?

Yeah.

- A large one?
- Yes, please.

- Say when.
- I never do.

Oh, be an angel, would you,
and just slip it between my lips?

Oh, the glass. Yes, of course.

Mmm.

Sorry to put you
to all this inconvenience.

Don't mention it.

It's just I always seem to get
caught out when someone arrives.

Yesterday, it was
the television repairman.

The day before,
it was the plumber,

and, as for the window cleaner,
well, every time he comes now,

- I seem to be in the bath.
- I see.

Oh, you wouldn't be an angel,
would you, and...

Undo it for me?

Mmm.

It's for a dinner tonight.

My husband's in cement.

Oh? Must be uncomfortable for him.

It's a presentation dinner, you see,
so I thought I'd wear green

to go with my nail varnish.

- Very nice.
- Mmm.

Seems to be all right now.
You're not in a rush, are you?

It's just I'd like to try it on
to make sure it fits.

- No, no, of course not.
- Oh. Good.

Some gaff this, innit?

Must cost a packet.

I bet she does, and all.

Make yourself at home, won't you?
I shan't be long.

What about her, then?

Bit of all right.

"Shan't be long.
My husband's in cement." Bloody hell.

Have you lost something?

Balls.

Er... they fell off.

Oh. Never mind.

You couldn't give me a hand
with the zip, could you?

It seems to be stuck, and I
don't want to break a nail on it.

These birds and their zips.

Jesus.

It's a bit stiff.

It won't be the only thing
if she carries on like this.

Yeah, I see what you mean.
It is stuck, isn't it?

Maybe if you pull it?

That had crossed my mind.

- Have you done it?
- Yeah, I think so.

Oh. Seems a bit loose.

Oh. Look at that.
Just look at it.

That's just so typical
of today's workmanship.

That's the last dress
I shall buy from there.

Yeah, disgraceful.

Now, what shall I do?

Well, it was the only thing
I could think of, wasn't it?

Another satisfied customer.

And the dress did fit, after all.

Six pou...

I suppose I can't really ask her
for me fare now.

I promised that Nikki
I'd pick her up from the club.

Mustn't be late, in case
she sets that snake on to me.

This is the one, I think.

How about it, then, guv?

Twelve beautiful girls,
do everything.

All naked and they dance.

- Hey, where do you think you're going?
- Inside.

Not without paying, you're not.

Oh, I'm not goin' in,
not to see the show.

I'm just pickin' up Nikki, that's all.

Yeah. You and a few others.

No, honest. I'm a cab driver.
Look, me cab's just outside.

Nah, could be anyone's.

Look, if you think you're gonna
gain admittance here without paying,

you've got another think
coming to ya.

I'm telling you,
I'm only here to collect Nikki.

I mean, do us a favour, mate. I'll
give you me licence number if you like.

You can check it.

I know all the taxi drivers round
here, mate. I don't know yourface.

Well, that's 'cause
I don't normally do this patch.

I'm only here to collect Nikki.
I live in the same flat as her, see?

You're not the one
who went to bed with monty?

Oh, god!

What, by accident, was it?
Or did you need the help?

Go on. Get down.

Sorry, mate.

Joe, would you mind hangin' on
just a minute?

I've just gotta nip back
and get monty.

- No rush.
- Okay.

- Okay?
- W hat?

You comin' or not?

Well, if you're not quite ready,
I don't mind.

- That's Helga.
- Oh?

You can put your eyeballs back in.
I've invited her for supper tonight.

Foreign, is she?

She's a nun from scunthorpe.

Come on.

- That was lovely, Nikki.
- Mmm.

Oh, it was nothing special.

Oh, I enjoyed it.

Now, what?

Oh, I've got
some yoghurt in the fridge.

- No, I meant what shall we do now?
- You decide.

Why don't we play a game? Hmm?

What about strip poker?

Oh, come on, it might be fun.
What do you say, Tom?

No. He doesn't want to play.

Oh, come on. Just for a giggle.

- Got any cards?
- Cards? Er... no.

Well, how about spinning
the bottle instead? Hmm?

Okay.

Well, I think I'll read my book.

We could always play
strip ouija board, if you'd prefer?

Ouija board? What ouija board?

No, let's spin the bottle.

Um... I'll get it.

Where's Joe? I came to see him.

Oh. Er... he's not in. He's out.

No. His taxi's here.

It's all right.
He is expecting me.

Hello. I'm Carol.

Carol hotchkiss. Joe's fiancée.

I expect he's spoken of me.
Which is his room? That one?

Thank you, dear.

Carol! Listen, I can explain.

It's the third house along,
on the right. Number 42.

Joe: Right you are.

Do you want a hand with those?

Would you? Oh, thank you.

You can just put them down here.

Joe: Oh, that's all right.
I don't mind carrying them in for ya.

That's very kind of you.

- I can't find my key.
- Are you sure?

Perhaps it's in your bag, loose?

I'll try.

It's not there.

- What about pockets?
- I haven't got any.

What am I going to do?

Perhaps you could go to a neighbour's
till your husband gets home.

He's away. On a business trip.
I can't even get hold of him.

Don't you have a spare somewhere?

- Yes, of course.
- Oh, well, then.

It's inside.

I thought you might have one
under a flower pot or something.

Harold, that's my husband,

Harold's nervous
about burglars getting in.

All very well,
but how do [get in?

I could try to climb in,
isuppose.

But you'll have to help me.
You will, won't you?

Icantleave
a lady in distress, can I?

Let's see if there's
a window open somewhere.

Oh, there won't be one of those.

Thank you.

You will be careful, won't you?

Safe as houses, darlin'.

Are you all right?

What's happened?

Are you all right?

Say something, please.

What's happening up there?

I didn't know
what had happened to you.

I called and called,
but you didn't answer.

- Are you all right?
- Yeah, I think so.

Look, you go down and
I'll open the front door.

I can't. I'm stuck.

What do you mean, stuck?
Just go back down the way you came.

I can't. I daren't look down.

I'll fall.
I'm frightened of heights.

Look, it's quite simple.

If you can't go down,
you'd better come on up.

I can't move. I'm scared.

All right, then, go back down
the way you came.

Help me.

All right. Now, don't panic.

You're quite safe.
Just do as I say. Okay?

Now, put one hand
on the next rung up.

Go on, one more.

Now the other one.

Keep going. You're okay.

I'm watchin' ya. Up a bit.
No, down, just a little.

Now, in.

Towards the wall, that's it.

Go on, you're doing fine.
Come on.

It's all right, you're nearly there.

That's it.
Now, give me your hand.

Lovely.

- I can't put my feet...
- Oh, you're doing wonderful.

There ya 90. You're there

- through the window...
- Oh. Oh.

Oh! Oh, you're all wet.

I should have warned you.

- Oh, I'm sorry. I completely forgot.
- Yeah, well.

And, of course, that's why
I left the window open,

to let the smell of paint out.

Oh, and look at your clothes.

They're covered in it.

Oh, you have to let me
wash them for you.

You can't go out like that.

Oh, well, that's, er...
Very nice of you to offer.

Well, I think the least I can do
is clean your clothes

and give you a bath, don't you?

I do like huge bubbly ones, don't you?

Yeah.

That's about right, now.

- Oh, I can't wait to get in.
- Neither can I.

Bubbles make me
go all tingly all over.

You as well?

Ooh, it feels all lovely.
All tingly.

What a way to go!

Marion?

Marion!

Marion, where are you?

- Hide!
- Marion, you in the bath?

Ah, there you are.
Didn't you hear me shouting?

Oh, darling, what a lovely surprise.
I wasn't expecting you.

Harold: What a complete shambles.
The whole trip.

Oh, you poor love.
Why don't you go downstairs,

put your feet up, and pour
yourself out a nice long drink,

and I'll join you, and you
can tell me all about it.

Well, there's nothing to tell.

The entire fiasco was predictable
from start to finish,

and you know
who's responsible, don't you?

- Well, I told 'em, I warned 'em.
- Yes, you did.

"You put Peters in as
acting managing director,

"and you've got nothing but trouble
on your hands," I said.

"He can't cope with responsibility,

"he's got no initiative,

"runs a Ford anglia,
and doesn't play golf.

"You Mark my words."

Well, I've been
proved right yet again.

Oh, that's wonderful.

Now, why don't you
just go downstairs...

Harold: "Wonderful"?

It's frustrating.
Well, it's... it's insulting.

Oh, I quite agree.

Now, why don't you
just let me finish my bath,

and I'll be straight with you?

Yes, I...
I could do with a drink.

- What was that?
- Nothing.

Just knocked the plug, that's all.

Oh, darling, um...
Can I get you anything?

- What?
- To drink.

- No, just go downstairs and I'll be...
- Marion, is it really necessary

to use all that much bubble bath?

You only bought this last week
and you've already finished it.

You really must be
more careful in future.

I can't afford
extravagance of this sort.

I mean, how you expect me
to raise your housekeeping allowance

in the face of such flagrant wastage,
I really don't know.

Really must pull yourself
together, you know.

You're getting very careless lately.

Won't do, you know.
No, won't do.

It's all right.

Marion, I meant to ask you,

what on earth have you been
doing in the bedroom?

There's paint all over the place.
It's a terrible mess.

It's the decorators.
It was meant to be a surprise.

Surprise? I should think the only
surprise I'd get would be the bill.

Don't suppose you've thought
to get an estimate first?

- Oh, Harold...
- Never mind. Don't upset yourself.

I mean... no, I expect you...

You meant well,
yes, like Peters.

He meant well, I expect,
incompetent clodhopper.

But the board, listen?
Would they listen?

Please, Harold,
the water's getting cold.

Oh. Ah. Yes. Well, er...

Yes, well, you have your bath
and, um...

Don't you worry about a thing.

No, it was a...
A lovely surprise

to find paint
all over the bedroom.

Yes, I think I do need a drink.

It's all right now.
It's all right now.

Come on, quick!

Harold: I brought you a drink, darling.
I thought you might like one.

Oh, you mustn't stand about like that,
not with the window open.

Oh, no, no. Catch your death.

Sorry, mate, I'm not, um...

St Mary's convent, upton road.

Yeah, but...

Of all the rotten luck.

Anyone else but a nun.

I couldn't very well tell her
to eff off, now, could I?

I wonder if I could trouble you
to help me with my cases?

Oh, I thought
I heard you come in.

It's costin' me a bloody fortune
in jeans, this job.

- How come?
- I keep losin' 'em.

Oh, by the way, your brother
phoned up while you were out.

- What, Peter?
- Yeah.

He said something about having
a whole lot of television sets.

- Did we need one?
- Bloody hell!

Why? What's the matter?

Look, if he phones up again,
tell him, er...

I don't know, tell him
I've left the country, anything.

Why? You don't want
to speak to him, then?

Not if I can avoid it.

I've got enough problems
in me own life

without getting lumbered with him
and his thieving.

I may, er... get into a few scrapes
now and again,

but that's one thing
I've always stayed well clear of,

crime and all that.

You know
what this is, buddy? It's a gun.

Just keep your mouth shut.

Do as you're told
and you won't get hurt.

- Yeah, but...
- I said, "shut up and get going!"

Now, make one wrong move,
and you're dead. Understand?

Just stick to the driving,
keep your eyes on the road,

and you and me'll
get along just fine.

Now, drive south,
and no funny business.

I know this town
like I know my own face.

If you ask me, we should have
rubbed her out there and then.

Don't get no troubles with a stiff.

Nobody's askin' ya, so shut up!

Supposin' her old man
wants to talk to her?

Ain't nobody going to pay
no ransom for a stiff, dumb-head.

We got to keep her alive
to get the dough. Do you get it?

Yeah.

Yeah, but she's already seen us,
so why bother with all this stuff?

So when we call up her old man,

you want her to tell him
where we stashed her?

Oh, get it through that
thick skull of yours, dumb-head.

What she don't know,
she can't tell. Okay?

Then we rub her out.

Just stick to the road, pal,
like I told ya.

- Why don't we rub her out?
- Shut that moron up, will ya?

Do a right... now!

Listen, birdbrain, we don't snuff her
unless there's no other way.

What if something goes wrong?

So long as you follow orders,
nothing will.

Now, take the next turning
on the left.

And keep it real cool and steady.

I am gonna do something.
Soon as I get the chance.

Bit difficult with a gun
pointing at my head, though.

Okay, buddy, turn left,
through those gates.

Keep goin'.

Fudhen

ah, that's it. Now, pull up!

Get that broad out of the cab.

Here, didn't we ought to
rub him out, too?

I mean, what's to stop him
shooting his mouth off?

Okay, buddy. Out of the cab.
Nice and easy, now.

No sudden moves,
or this baby goes off.

All right, buddy. Out of the cab.
Now, keep it cool.

Put your hands on your head.
Now, turn around.

Come on, turn around!

Now, get movin'. Turn around.

Get up.

Come on, hands against the wall.

Look.
Come on, you can relax now.

Look at him, he fell for it!

I don't believe it!
Look at his face.

I'm sorry if we scared ya.
The whole thing was a joke.

Everything.

You see, we were at this party...

And someone suggested

that we wouldn't dare
try it in the street.

And that no cabbie would believe it.

So they bet us twenty quid to do it.

- No hard feelings?
- No hard feelings?

I've been losin' fares
while you've been doing all this.

Oh, don't forget
to get the paper signed.

Oh, yes.
I almost forgot about that.

We had to bring back some kind of
proof that we actually did it.

Look, do you think you'd mind signing
your name to this bit of paper?

And, if you could add your cab number,
that would be great.

Thanks, mate.

- hello, maisie.
- Hello, Joe.

Well, come on, love.
Don't be nervous, I won't bite it off.

- Where to, darlin'?
- Oh, the usual, love.

- What, round the block?
- Yeah, that'll do.

Just keep on drivin'. I'll give you
a yell when I'm finished.

- Right!
- Here, you heard about glenda, didn't you?

Oh, sorry, love.
Be with you in a minute.

- Glenda?
- Yeah.

She married an arab she picked up.

- I thought I hadn't seen her around.
- Yeah. An arab.

- With oil Wells and everything.
- No!

Mind you, it was only a matter of time
before she hooked some old geezer.

Joe: Funny, I'd never have
thought that about her.

- Maisie: What, getting married?
- Joe: Yeah.

What, glenda? You're joking.

Every time she opened her mouth
a wedding bell popped out.

So how's business with you?

Oh, well, it's quietened down a bit
now the tourist season's over,

but I don't do so bad.

Tell you what, love, you get it out
and start practising,

and I'll join you in a minute.

Here, Joe, could I have
this one on credit?

You know, I've just had
the electricity bill in...

Yeah, that's okay.

Oh, you are lovely.
I'll make it up next time, I promise.

Nah, don't worry about it.
It's my pleasure.

I'll tell you what, I didn't half
get a fright the other week.

I thought I'd
caught a dose, didn't I?

All right. Don't worry.
You have a very nasty cough there.

You should get it seen to.
It might be serious.

That's the fourth one I've had
this week with a cold.

I only hope to god
I don't go down with it.

That's my trouble, you know.

Anything that's goin' the rounds,
I seem to pick up.

Yeah, I had noticed.

Anyway, love,
can't sit here chatting all day.

I've got to get back to work.

Ah!

Oh, my god.

Something tells me
this could be my lucky night.

- Number 24, you said?
- Twenty-four. Yes.

Oh, a right little
sex bomb, this one.

I mean, you can tell
from that voice, can't ya, eh?

All husky and sexy.

I reckon this one'll need the smooth,
suave James Bond type chat-up.

You, er...

You in the movies, then?

Sorry?

No, it's just that I thought
I recognised your face from somewhere.

I'd swear I'd seen you on the telly
or the pictures, somewhere like that.

- Possibly.
- I knew it.

I knew you were in show business.
Are you famous, then?

Well, if I was, you'd know who I am,
wouldn't you?

Yeah, well, I do. It's just that

your name escapes me
for the moment. That's all.

Bunny McQueen.

Bunny McQueen! Of course.
How could I ever forget that?

Bunny McQueen? Oh, I get it.

"Bunny."
must work at that playboy club.

One of those birds
with long, floppy ears,

all dressed up like rabbits.

Yeah, probably been
in that playboy magazine.

You know, playmate of the month?

I bet if! Looked, I'd find a picture
of you on Tom's garage wall.

- Who's Tom?
- Oh, he's a guy I live with.

- Oh, is he nice?
- Yeah, he's all right.

He's not as nice as you, though.

She fancies me, don't she?

Oh, I'm in here
if I play me cards right.

Make yourself at home.

Sit down. Relax.

I should sit over there if I were you.
It's more comfortable.

I'll just, er... get the wine.

- There we are.
- Well, here we are, then.

- Have you been together long?
- What?

- This boy you live with.
- Oh, Tom. No, just a few weeks.

Well, we've known each other
for a couple of years now.

But we've only been living together
a short time.

Well, he's not going to getjealous,
if he comes back and finds me here?

No, probably fancy you himself.

Oh, let me.

Oh, must need a new flint.

Hang on, I've got
some matches somewhere.

Sorry about that.

I think that's a really great
outfit you're wearin'.

Oh, do you like it?
I design all my own clothes.

Yeah, well, it looks terrific.

I suppose I shouldn't really
be wearing it now,

but after I finish work
I just want to get away.

I can't be bothered to change.

Oh, no, you mustn't change.
I mean, you look great as you are.

A real turn-on. Honest.
It's a tough one, this.

Oh, do you want me to do it?

No, no. It's all right.
I'll get it out in a minute.

Come on.
Why don't you let me try?

No, you'll never do it.

- Have you got the glasses ready?
- What? Oh, yeah.

Sorry, we're a bit, er...
Short on glasses.

Well, this is very nice.

Thank you.

I think you're very nice.

You, er...

Comfortable, are you?

Mmm. Thank you.

I think you're really something.

Really, I do.

I hope you won't mind
if I say this, but, er...

I think you've got the most
beautifully-shaped breasts I've ever seen.

- Really beautiful.
- Yes. Yes, they're much better now.

Mind you, they cost me a fortune.

So, um... why don't we give them
a little air to breathe, eh?

You've got lovely legs and all.

Really lovely.

Bunny:
I have to shave them, of course.

Bloody hell!

- What's the matter?
- You!

- You're a fella!
- But of course I am.

What did you think I was?

Wonder if I could have him
under the trades descriptions act?

- Christ almighty!
- Get going, mister, fast.

- Where to?
- Never mind now, just drive.

Help! Help, I've been robbed!

Must have gone to the same party.
Still, tenner a time, I should care.

- I'll play the game.
- Look, can't you go any faster?

I'm doing my best, guv, but watch out
for the law. I don't want to get done.

Yeah, we'll take care of that.
Just drive. Left.

Christ almighty,
you might give me some warning.

Police radio: All cars, all cars west.
A robbery in praed street.

Your attention is called
to a black London taxi,

believed to contain suspects.
Roger 1505, thank you, over.

What do we do, stop them all?

Turn right.
Just where that Van is.

Wouldn't it be easier if you told me
where we're making for?

I mean, we're gonna
have an accident at this rate.

Look, I'm givin'
the orders round here,

so shut up and keep drivin'.

Oh, well, I suppose they've
got to come on heavy,

otherwise it wouldn't count.

I wonder when they get round
to the bit about doing me in?

Not as good as the last lot.
Nah, much more realistic, they were.

Are we being followed?

- Don't think so.
- That's all right.

Going in the opposite direction.

It's all clear.
He could drop us off at the end here.

Are you kidding?
He's coming with us.

We may need a hostage.

Look, mate, why don't I just drop you
here, like your mate suggested, eh?

Then I can sign your paper
and you can be on your way.

Paper?

I just think it'd save us all
a lot of time, that's all.

- What paper? What are you talkin' about?
- You know, for your mates.

"I hereby declare I've done the
dreadful deed" and all that rubbish.

I won't tell 'em I cottoned on.

Listen. Just shut up
and keep driving.

Oh, come on, now,
don't let's get carried away.

I mean, a joke's a joke, but I keep
losing business doing this lark.

Yeah, that won't be the only thing
you'll lose if you don't belt up.

Look, fair's fair,
but you go too far.

I'm not gonna to sign your paper,
I'm warning you, so just watch your step.

- Now, see here...
- Left. Sharp left!

Joe: Hang about.
What's all this, then?

Man: Go right down the end
to the garage, drive right in.

- Oh, I get it, I get it.
- You will if you don't belt up.

It's bleedin' Tom, innit?

I mean, I told him about
the other kidnap, and he thought...

Very funny!

- What are you doin' here?
- You should know.

What a bloody prank. Look,
it's costing me money, this game.

- You know him?
- 'Course he bloody knows me.

- I live here, don't I?
- Er... what happened? Where's the car?

Parked on a double yellow line,
didn't he, eh?

We do the job, come rushing out
with the stuff,

there's our getaway car
being done for parking.

Had to come back by cab.

And of all the cabs in London,
you had to pick...

Oh, no!

I still say we can't trust him.

And, I'm telling you, he's a mate.
He's not gonna shop us.

- I won't. I won't.
- And I say we shouldn't chance it.

Look, I'm not gonna say anything.
As far as I'm concerned,

itneverhappened.
I don't know nothing about it.

See? Now, I'll guarantee him.
Now, don't worry.

- Don't worry?
- How much do you think I'm worth?

Now look, Nikki, we haven't
got time for all that, love.

Take 'em off, please?

I knew I'd look good
in expensive things.

Yeah, you look lovely.
Now get 'em off.

Right, well, er...
If you've all finished with me,

I think I'd better
get back to work.

Sit down.
You ain't going anywhere.

- Yeah, well, I just thought...
- Well, don't.

- You expecting anyone?
- It's all right. It's not the law.

And I thought taxi driving
was a strain.

Right, let's get this stuff
away somewhere.

It's making me nervous
lying around the place.

Yeah, where are you gonna put it?

I know a place where
no-one'll look. Nikki?

Oh, come here, monty.

- Christ almighty!
- Hello, what are you doing here?

- You two know each other?
- Yeah, he's my brother, isn't he?

Bloody hell, what's that?

A hippopotamus.

What the hell are you doing
mixed up in all this?

Well, I'm in the big time now,
aren't I?

I don't believe it.
I just don't believe it.

Peter: I was drivin'
the getaway car, wasn't I?

Oh, yeah, parked on
a double yellow line.

Peter: I've done it before
and never got nicked.

So tell us what happened.

Nothin' happened.
I got a bollockin'.

You lot came running out of the shop
with the stuff.

Well, the copper, he forgot about me,
so I drove off.

Yeah.
We should have been with ya.

Well, it looks like you managed
to pick up a cab all right, don't it?

Little bleeder.
I ought to do you.

I saw what happened. Didn't know
it was Joe driving it, though.

How much did he charge ya?

You think you're very funny,
don't you, eh?

Come on, Harry, lay off.

Yeah, but how do we know
he wasn't followed?

Bloody amateur,
coming straight back here.

So what else was I supposed to do?
It wasn't me they were following.

Yeah, well, any more cheek
and I'll lay one on you so hard

my fist'll come out
the back of your head.

Take it easy, Harry, yeah?

The kid didn't mean nothing.
Just let it rest, okay?

Yeah, trouble is, my friends,
what do we do now?

I mean, for all we know,
they might have taken Joe's number.

For all we know, they might be
on the way round here right now.

Taken my number?

Oh, that's great, that is.
That's really landed me in it.

Tom's right. We ought to split
before they get on to us.

Yeah, we'll meet up tomorrow
like we planned.

Too late, they're here.

- Can't see anyone.
- Well, it's not ringing on its own.

Who is it?

Nikki: If nobody makes a sound,
perhaps they'll go away.

Look, maybe you'd better go
and see who it is.

- What?
- Do you want me to go?

You stay right where you are.
Yeah. Go on.

Carol: It's no use hiding.
I know you're in there, Joe north.

Bloody hell, that's all I need.

Answer this door
or I'll scream the place down.

You let me in or,
I'm warning you,

I'll get the police
to knock the door in.

- Oh, Carol.
- You took your time, didn't ya?

- Where is he?
- Who?

Oh, Joe.

Who did you think I meant?
Mickey mouse?

He's out. Working.

What? When his taxi's here?

What's he driving?
Horse and cart?

His taxi's not here.
He's out in it.

Really. Well, I have just bumped into
the tall lady from number 3,

with the toy poodle
and the blue rinse.

And, according to her,

Joe's taxi drove into
your garage ten minutes ago.

So, unless it's gone straight through
your back wall, it's still here, innit?

Well, you see, I wouldn't
know about that, 'cause, er...

I was asleep.

He's up there, isn't he?

He's up there with
another bloody bird!

Oh!

Joe, get rid of her.

- What am I supposed to do?
- Carol: Joe north, I'm coming up,

and if I find you in a compromising
position with your knickers down, I'll...

- Didn't know you had company.
- Hello, Carol.

I just came to tell you
that I've forgiven you.

For what you was doing
last time I saw you.

- Oh, er... thank you.
- Yes.

I've thought it over very carefully
and I decided that what you did

was a moment of weakness
on your behalf,

so I have forgiven you.

- Great.
- I thought you'd be pleased.

Yeah. Great.

Well, aren't you
going to introduce me?

To your friends?

Oh. Yes, um... this is Peter.

Yes, I know Peter, and Tom,
and that Nikki as well.

And, um... this is, er...
Jeremy?

Terribly pleased to meet you.

- And Rupert.
- Very pleased to meet you.

I'm Joe's fiancée.
Carol hotchkiss.

Actually, Harry... Bernard and Jim
were just about to leave.

Er... yeah, yeah.

- Yeah, we're going.
- Yeah.

Yeah.

- Yeah.
- Bye, Rupert.

Nice to have met you.

What did you say
they do for a living?

- Insurance.
- Antiques.

- Banking.
- Computers.

What's goin' on?

What do you mean? Nothing. Why?

Is there something
I'm not supposed to know about?

It's just that I get the impression...

I mean, what's he
doing here for a start?

Peter: Just come to see
my brother, haven't I?

You've got someone here,
haven't you?

Another woman.
Another naked tart in the bedroom.

Oh, for god's sake. Look, there's
no-one here but us, that's all.

- How am I supposed to know that?
- Well, you've just got a suspicious mind.

That's your trouble. You're worse
than the CIA, into everything.

If I caught you with
another woman, Joe north,

so help me,
I would kill you, I would.

Especially after I've forgiven you
for your misdemeanour.

Listen, darlin', you know you're
the only girl in the world for me.

It's just that, um...
I've learned my lesson.

Come on, let's go down the pub
and have a drink, eh?

- Do you really mean that?
- Yes, I'm thirsty. I could do with one.

No. About me being
the only girl in the world.

'Course I do. Come on.

Oh, well, don't push me, all right?
I mean, the pubs aren't even open yet.

- So? We can wait.
- Which one did you want to go to?

Oh, any one...

Thank god for that.

Good day, sir. Madam.
Going somewhere, were we?

- Who are you?
- Do you mind if we step inside, sir?

- Carol: What did you want?
- If you don't mind, sir?

Carol: No, you see,
we were just on our way out.

Yes, I had noticed.

Yes, we were waiting
till the pubs opened.

Inspector Rogers, cid.

- And this is sergeant jeeves.
- Afternoon, all.

I rather thought you might be able
to help us with our enquiries.

Oh, what's been happening?

Oi! You got a search warrant?

Why? You hiding something?

You were with him.
And you were with him.

Right?

So, who were you with?

Myself.

Joe, what's this all about?

You're a bit young to be
in this sort of league, aren't you?

I didn't know
there was an age limit.

Look, what are we supposed
to be helping his enquiries with?

Carol, love.

It's to do with sex, isn't it?

You've been having orgies up here,
haven't you?

That's what it is, isn't it?

- Orgies.
- Rogers: No, ma'am.

Well, it must be something like that.

I mean, if Joe's anything to do
with it, it must be sexy.

You've got a one-track mind, you have.

All right, if it's not orgies,
what is it, then?

You might say
it's a little treasure hunt.

Joe, what have you got yourself
mixed up with now?

- Nothing.
- I bet you have.

Especially if
there's a woman involved.

- Listen, there's nothing up here.
- Not according to your two friends.

We've got 'em outside.

- Picked 'em up a few minutes ago.
- What two friends?

We know all about your little caper
at the jewellers.

I'm sorry, I really don't know
what you're talking about.

Why don't you just come clean?
Your friends have.

Found any little trinkets yet?

Not yet, sir.

Tom: You're not gonna
find anything, you know.

We'll see. Life's full of
little surprises, isn't it?

Jesus Christ!

I'm sorry, sir,
I didn't mean to shout.

It's just there's
a bloody snake in there.

That is monty.

He is my speciality and
he's very highly strung.

Please don't upset him.
He's got a performance tonight.

- There's nothing there, sir.
- Told ya.

Here, I've just realised.
You're looking for stolen property.

Carol, why don't you belt up?

But the cheek of it.
I mean, comin' in here

and searching this place
like we were all criminals.

No, you tell him, Joe.
Go on, tell him.

Carol, Carol,
will you shut up, Carol?

Go on. Go on, tell him.

Ask to see his search warrant.
Go on. Ask. Ask.

Go on. Go on.

If you don't ask,
I shall never speak to you again,

even though I have forgiven you.

Have you got something to say, then?

- Well, um, inspector...
- Go on, go on, tell him to get out.

Yes, um...

And tell him to apologise.
Tell him you know your rights.

Tell him you'll sue him for libel
if he don't apologise.

She'll get me jailed for life.

Well, go on, Joe, tell him.
Joe is my fiancé.

Well, um, inspector, as you
don't appear to have found anything...

That's right.
Really lay it on him.

I suggest we, um, call it a day.

- Don't you?
- That's a bit pathetic, innit?

- Carol!
- Well, I mean, he's just called us

a bunch of criminals.
We could sue him for that.

Excuse me, ma'am,
I haven't called any of you criminals.

Yet.

Carol: Oh, yes, you did.
I heard you.

You said we had stolen goods.

What sort of people
do you think we are?

Accusing us of being criminals.

- We are respectable, we are.
- Nikki!

Carol: I have never done
anything criminal in my life.

- I work in a supermarket.
- Nikki!

And as for Joe,
well, he's a taxi driver.

And Peter is, well...

And as for Tom, well, you could hardly
call him a criminal. He's a mechanic.

- Nikki...
- And Nikki,

- well, she's respectable. She's a stripper.
- Nikki!

And so the last thing you could
ever find in this place

would be stolen property.

Just been visiting Tom.
Poor bastard.

Got five years.
Him and his mates.

I thought I was gonna
go down meself at one point.

But, as I explained to them,
I was a victim of the circumstances.

And they let me off with a caution.

Mind you, I think they were
glad to see the back of me,

'cause Carol was pestering
the life out of them.

Nikki got out of it all right.

Probation. First offence.

Tom's asked me
to keep an eye on her for him.

That's a favour
I shan't mind doing.

Lost me a lot of time, though,
all this business with the law.

Lost me a place to live and all.
Guess where I've ended up?

Mrs north: Nothing like
home cookin', is there?

Not like your home cooking,
there isn't.

Carol rang up.
Said she'd be round at six.

- You were taking her out.
- Oh, yeah.

That's really lumbered me
in it, that has.

I suppose the only good thing
that's come out of this is you

getting off on probation.

Really shook you up,
that brush with the law.

Good thing, too.
Turned over a new leaf, you have.

You still eat anything that
lies still on a plate though, don't ya?

Still, you've learned your lesson.
I'm glad to see it.

Good to see you going straight.

Well, I'm off.
Where's me fares book?

Bloody hell!

Mrs north: Here, don't you bloody
swear in front of the baby.

Teaches her bad habits.
